[0042] According to the first aspect of this utility model, a movable backrest for a dental chair includes an adjusting strap 20 and a backrest component 30.
[0043] The specific structure of the above-mentioned components of the movable backrest of the dental chair according to this embodiment will be described below.
[0044] A dental chair consists of a treatment section and a seating section, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the seat portion is the main body 10 of the dental chair for the patient to lie on during treatment. In this embodiment, the adjustment strap 20 is provided on the main body 10 of the dental chair, specifically on the side of the main body 10 used to support the patient. The adjustment strap 20 is formed as a strip structure extending along the length direction of the main body 10 of the dental chair. Preferably, the adjustment strap 20 is formed as a flat strip structure with a certain width, so that the adjustment strap 20 can fit against the surface of the main body 10 of the dental chair and will not protrude excessively on the surface of the main body 10 of the dental chair, thereby reducing the discomfort caused by the adjustment strap 20 to the patient when lying down.
[0045] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the pillow component 30 has a support portion 302 and a strap portion 301 disposed on the side of the support portion 302 facing the main body 10 of the dental chair. The support portion 302 is formed into a block structure, and the strap portion 301 can be a strip or a strip-shaped structure. The two ends of the strap portion 301 perpendicular to the length direction of the adjustment strap 20 are connected to the support portion 302, so that the through hole 303 formed by the strap portion 301 and the support portion 302 can be connected by sewing. However, the connection method of the strap portion 301 and the support portion 302 is not limited to this, as long as the two are fixed.
[0046] The adjusting strap 20 passes through the binding part 301 and the support part 302 to form a through hole 303, allowing the backrest 30 to slide along the extension direction of the adjusting strap 20. This allows the position of the backrest 30 on the adjusting strap 20 to be adjusted according to the patient's body shape, so that the backrest 30 provides effective support to the patient, avoids the feeling of being suspended due to lack of support, improves the problem of fatigue accumulation during long-term treatment, and enhances the patient's treatment experience.
[0047] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the main body 10 of the dental chair includes a headrest 11, a backrest 12 and a seat cushion 13. The headrest 11 and the seat cushion 13 are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the backrest 12. The headrest 11 is used to support the patient's head, the backrest 12 is used to support the patient's back, and the seat cushion 13 is used to support the patient's buttocks and legs.
[0048] To provide effective support for the patient's legs, lower back, and head and neck, in this embodiment, as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the adjustment strap 20 includes a first strap 21 on the headrest 11, a second strap 22 on the backrest 12, and a third strap 23 on the seat cushion 13. The backrest 30 includes a first backrest 31 mounted on the first strap 21, a second backrest 32 mounted on the second strap 22, and a third backrest 33 mounted on the third strap 23. In this way, the position of the first backrest 31 on the first strap 21 can meet the support needs of the patient's head and neck, the position of the second backrest 32 on the second strap 22 can meet the support needs of the patient's waist, and the position of the third backrest 33 on the third strap 23 can meet the support needs of the patient's legs. This can more effectively address the discomfort such as numbness in the lower limbs and soreness in the shoulders and neck that patients are prone to during long-term treatment.
[0049] Preferably, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the adjustment strap 20 is located at the middle position of the dental chair body 10 in the width direction, and the strap part 301 is located at the middle position of the support part 302 in the width direction of the dental chair body 10. Specifically, the first strap 21 is located at the middle position of the headrest 11 in the width direction, the second strap 22 is located at the middle position of the backrest 12 in the width direction, and the third strap 23 is located at the middle position of the seat cushion 13 in the width direction, so that the first backrest 31, the second backrest 32 and the third backrest 33 are all installed at the middle position of the dental chair body 10 in the width direction, so as to achieve full support for the shoulders, neck, waist and legs when the patient is lying in the center on the dental chair body 10.
[0050] In this embodiment, the support portion 302 can be memory foam or an air bladder, etc., giving it a certain degree of flexibility to improve patient comfort while meeting support requirements. Preferably, such as Figure 3 As shown, the strap portion 301 is elastic, for example, the strap portion 301 can be an elastic band, so that before the adjusting strap 20 passes through the through hole 303, the strap portion 301 can fit against the support portion 302. In this way, when the pillow piece 30 slides along the adjusting strap 20, the support portion 302 is kept close to the adjusting strap 20, thereby avoiding the situation where the pillow piece 30 shifts after the adjustment position is determined, causing the support to shift.
[0051] In the first implementation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the adjustment strap 20 is not detachably connected to the dental chair body 10. For example, the adjustment strap 20 can be fixed to the dental chair body 10 by sewing, thereby ensuring that the adjustment strap 20 and the dental chair body 10 are reliably positioned and fit well. This avoids the situation where the adjustment strap 20 is loose, which would cause the backrest 30 to be unreliably positioned in the width direction of the dental chair body 10, resulting in inconvenient adjustment or even failure of support.
[0052] In the second implementation, such as Figure 4 As shown, the adjustment strap 20 is detachably connected to the main body 10 of the dental chair, allowing for free installation of the adjustment strap 20 and the backrest 30 according to actual needs. Furthermore, it facilitates adjustment of the tension of the adjustment strap 20, preventing it from becoming misaligned with the main body 10 after prolonged use. It also facilitates replacement of the backrest 30, preventing damage or size mismatch that could affect its support effectiveness.
[0053] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the adjusting strap 20 has fixed sections 201 at both ends in its length direction and an intermediate section 202 between the two fixed sections 201. The headrest 30 is installed on the intermediate section 202 so that it can slide within the length range of the intermediate section 202. The intermediate section 202 is located on the side of the dental chair body 10 facing the patient. The end of the adjusting strap 20 surrounds the dental chair body 10, such that at least part of the fixed sections 201 is located on the side of the dental chair body 10 away from the patient.
[0054] Specifically, the dental chair movable backrest also includes a mounting piece 40 installed on the side of the dental chair body 10 facing away from the patient. The mounting piece 40 is installed on the chair frame plate of the dental chair body 10. The mounting piece 40 has a perforation 41, which can be a polygonal, elliptical, or circular hole structure. The end of the fixed section 201 away from the middle section 202 is formed as a free end 2011. The part of the fixed section 201 that does not pass through the perforation 41 is formed as a fixed part 2012. The free end 2011 passes through the perforation 41 and is connected to the fixed part 2012. The free end 2011 can be passed through the perforation 41 and then sewn to the fixed part 2012. In this way, the adjustment strap 20 is fixed to the mounting piece 40. The detachable connection between the mounting piece 40 and the dental chair body 10 is used to achieve the detachable connection between the adjustment strap 20 and the dental chair body 10.
[0055] More specifically, such as Figure 5As shown, the mounting member 40 includes two clamping jaws 402 arranged opposite to each other, making the mounting member 40 a clamping structure. A through hole 41 is provided on one of the clamping jaws 402, preferably located away from the clamping jaw 402 where the patient is lying on the dental chair body 10. One end of the two clamping jaws 402 is connected, and the other end of the two clamping jaws 402 forms a clamping opening 403 that clamps onto the dental chair body 10. The mounting member 40 has a clamping part 401 that can contact the dental chair body 10. In the direction in which the dental chair body 10 extends into the clamping opening 403, the distance between the two clamping jaws 402 gradually decreases and then gradually increases, so that the mounting member 40 has an overall structure that is wide at the bottom (i.e., the side where the two clamping jaws 402 are connected), narrow in the middle, and wide at the top (i.e., the side where the clamping opening 403 is located). The clamping part 401 is formed at the position where the distance between the two clamping jaws 402 is the smallest, thus enabling the mounting member 40 to be clamped onto the dental chair body 10 by the clamping part 401.
[0056] It should be noted that the distance between the two jaws 402 gradually decreases and then gradually increases, making the distance between the two jaws 402 wider in the bottom area of the mounting part 40 than in the area of the clamping part 401. This provides a stable support base for the mounting part 40. During the clamping process, the wide bottom design helps to enhance the structural stability of the entire mounting part 40, ensuring that it remains stable when the clamping part 401 is under force and is not prone to tilting or shaking. The two jaws 402 narrow significantly in the middle area of the mounting part 40, making the clamping part a narrow structure with the two jaws 402 close to each other. This helps to concentrate the clamping force, ensure reliable clamping, and improve the clamping effect. The two jaws 402 gradually extend from the clamping part 401 to the top and simultaneously expand outward to the opposite sides, making the top of the two jaws 402 form a curved structure. This facilitates the insertion of the dental chair body 10 into the clamping part 401.
[0057] Preferably, as the two grippers 402 gradually extend from the clamping part 401 towards the top, the degree of curvature gradually increases. This ensures reliable clamping by the clamping part 401 while simultaneously increasing the distance between the two grippers 402 and expanding outwards to both sides. Ultimately, a larger clamping opening 403 is presented at the top. Thus, during installation, as the chair frame plate is inserted into the clamping part 401, the expanded top guides the chair frame plate into the appropriate clamping position, allowing the mounting component 40 to be installed on the main body 10 of the dental chair more conveniently and efficiently, thereby enabling the adjustment strap 20 to be installed on the main body 10 of the dental chair. When the backrest component 30 is not needed, the mounting component 40 can be removed from the main body 10 of the dental chair, so that the adjustment strap 20 and the backrest component 30 are no longer installed on the dental chair column, allowing for free installation according to actual needs.
[0058] Preferably, in the second embodiment, the adjustment straps 20 and the pillow 30 on the backrest 12, seat cushion 13 and headrest 11 are all detachably connected by mounting parts 40.
[0059] Optionally, the dental chair movable headrest also includes a connector disposed on the side of the free end 2011 that passes through the perforation 41 and faces the fixed part 2012. The connector can be a snap fastener or a Velcro, thus realizing a detachable connection between the free end 2011 and the fixed part 2012. This allows the adjustment strap 20 to be removed from the dental chair body 10 without removing the mounting part 40 from the dental chair body 10.
[0060] According to the present invention, a movable backrest for a dental chair has an adjusting strap mounted on the main body of the dental chair. The adjusting strap is formed as a strip-shaped structure extending along the length of the main body of the dental chair. The backrest has a supporting part and a strap part located on the side of the supporting part facing the main body of the dental chair. The adjusting strap passes through the strap part and the supporting part to form a through hole, allowing the backrest to slide along the extension direction of the adjusting strap. This allows the position of the backrest on the adjusting strap to be adjusted according to the patient's body shape, providing effective support to the patient, alleviating the problem of physical fatigue that patients easily experience during long treatments, and improving the patient's treatment experience.
[0061] The dental chair provided by this utility model includes the aforementioned movable dental chair backrest, and thus has all the beneficial effects of the movable dental chair backrest, which will not be repeated here.
