Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dental appliances technology, and in particular to a dental cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] Dental cabinets, as indispensable medical instruments in oral treatment, play a crucial supporting role. In every dental procedure, whether a routine examination or a complex treatment, dental assistants (nurses) must neatly and systematically store various commonly used oral medications, different types of fluids, strictly sterilized instruments, and various dental materials in the dental cabinet. The core purpose is to ensure that the necessary items are quickly and accurately provided to the dentist during the treatment process, thereby guaranteeing the efficiency and continuity of the treatment procedure, allowing the dentist to fully concentrate on the treatment, and improving the overall quality of treatment and the patient's experience.
[0003] Currently, most dental cabinets on the market are modified from ordinary storage cabinets, with drawer cabinets and door cabinets being the two most common forms. In practical applications, these cabinets primarily serve the function of storing daily dental medications, instruments, and materials. During treatment, the dentist or dental assistant retrieves the necessary dental medications, instruments, and materials one by one from the cabinet according to the predetermined treatment plan, places them on a tray, and then places them on the counter for use during the treatment. After the treatment, it takes time and effort to sort the used medications, instruments, and materials and return them to the cabinet for storage. This traditional dental cabinet has significant drawbacks in its operational process. The tedious process of retrieving, placing, and classifying items before and after each treatment is not only time-consuming but also prone to human error leading to the loss or confusion of items, greatly reducing the efficiency of the treatment process, causing inconvenience to dentists and assistants, and also affecting the timeliness and comfort of patient treatment to some extent. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a dental cabinet.
[0005] The technical solution to achieve the purpose of this utility model is as follows: a dental cabinet includes a cabinet body, the cabinet body having an upper cabinet compartment and a lower cabinet compartment, the upper cabinet compartment having several rotating cabinet boxes arranged at intervals along a vertical direction, the rotating cabinet boxes being fan-shaped, the central part of the fan-shaped rotating cabinet box being hinged to the cabinet body on one side of the upper cabinet compartment opening, the hinge axis of the rotating cabinet box being perpendicular to the cabinet body; the lower cabinet compartment having several drawers arranged at intervals along a vertical direction, the drawers being slidably mounted on the cabinet body on both sides of the lower cabinet compartment; the top of the cabinet body has a top plate, the top of the top plate having a flip cover, the side of the flip cover near the upper cabinet compartment opening being hinged to the top plate, the hinge axis of the flip cover and the top plate being L1, L1 being horizontal.
[0006] Furthermore, the rotating cabinet boxes are divided into upper and lower groups, with the hinge axes of the upper and lower groups located on opposite sides of the upper cabinet opening. All rotating cabinet boxes can have their hinge axes on the same side of the upper cabinet opening; alternatively, the rotating cabinet boxes can be divided into upper and lower groups, with the hinge axes of the upper and lower groups located on opposite sides of the upper cabinet opening. Compared to the former, the upper and lower groups of rotating cabinet boxes have a larger offset when opened, making them easier to open and use simultaneously.
[0007] Furthermore, a bracket is provided on the back of the flip cover. One end of the bracket is hinged to the back of the flip cover, and the hinge axis between the bracket and the flip cover is L2, with L2 and L1 being parallel. When the flip cover is flipped up, the free end of the bracket can be pushed against the top plate so that the bracket can support the flip cover and keep it in an inclined state. Books and other items can be supported on the inclined flip cover. With the bracket provided on the back of the flip cover, the flip cover has its own support structure, eliminating the need to find a separate, accurate support structure for the flip cover, making it more convenient to use.
[0008] Furthermore, the hinge point between the bracket and the flip cover is located at the middle position of the flip cover. With this configuration, when the bracket supports the flip cover, the middle position of the flip cover is subjected to force, resulting in greater stability.
[0009] Furthermore, the surface of the top plate is provided with several limiting grooves, which are spaced apart along a horizontal direction perpendicular to L2. During operation, the free end of the bracket is located within one of the limiting grooves. This arrangement serves two purposes: firstly, the limiting grooves can limit the position of the bracket, making its support more stable; secondly, the multiple limiting grooves allow for selection, meaning the flip cover can have different tilt angles when the bracket is supported within different limiting grooves, adapting to various usage requirements.
[0010] Furthermore, a receiving groove is provided on the back of the flip cover to accommodate the bracket. This feature facilitates the storage of the bracket and prevents the flip cover from lifting due to the presence of the bracket.
[0011] This utility model of a dental cabinet features drawers on the cabinet body for storing items. The drawers have a regular structure, providing a large storage capacity and strong load-bearing capacity due to the load-bearing capacity on both sides. The drawer's pull-out opening and closing mechanism is also more stable. Furthermore, the cabinet incorporates rotating cabinet boxes for storing items. These rotating cabinet boxes offer easy and convenient opening and closing, and their large rotation range allows for easy misalignment of the upper and lower cabinet layers, facilitating easy access for the dentist. This new dental cabinet, with its rotating cabinet box and drawer combined, not only meets daily storage needs, but also, when the rotating cabinet boxes located above the drawer and on each of the upper and lower layers are opened in a staggered manner, they can form a "display tray" for direct use by the dentist. This allows the dentist to directly retrieve necessary treatment items such as dental medications, instruments, and materials from the rotating cabinet box during treatment, without having to transfer the items from the rotating cabinet box to a tray and then place them on the table. This greatly facilitates treatment operations and significantly improves the efficiency of diagnostic and treatment work.
[0012] This dental cabinet also features a flip-top above the top panel. When one side of the flip-top is flipped up, the entire cabinet tilts, and in this tilted state, it can serve as a backrest for storing dental treatment records, reports, books, tablets, etc. This dental cabinet offers diverse functions and can meet a wider range of needs during routine dental treatments.

[0018] The preferred embodiment of the dental cabinet of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0019] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a dental cabinet includes a cabinet body 1, with an upper cabinet compartment 2 and a lower cabinet compartment 4. The upper cabinet compartment 2 contains several rotating cabinet boxes 3, which are arranged at intervals along a vertical direction. Each rotating cabinet box 3 is fan-shaped, with its central portion 31 hinged to the cabinet body 1 on one side of the upper cabinet compartment 2's opening. The hinge axis of the rotating cabinet boxes 3 is perpendicular to that of the cabinet body 1. The lower cabinet compartment 4 contains several drawers 5, which are arranged at intervals along a vertical direction. The two sides 51 of each drawer 5 are slidably mounted on the cabinet body 1 on both sides of the lower cabinet compartment 4. The top of the cabinet body 1 has a top plate 11, and a flip-top 6 is located above the top plate 11. The side 61 of the flip-top 6 closest to the opening of the upper cabinet compartment 2 is hinged to the top plate 11, with the hinge axis of the flip-top 6 and the top plate 11 being L1, which is horizontal.
[0020] This utility model relates to a dental cabinet where a fan-shaped rotating cabinet box 3 is hinged at its central portion 31 to the cabinet body 1 on one side of the opening of the upper cabinet compartment 2. The rotating cabinet box 3 can rotate along the hinge axis between itself and the upper cabinet compartment 2. Since the hinge axis lies on the central portion 31 of the fan-shaped rotating cabinet box 3 and the cabinet body 1 on one side of the opening of the upper cabinet compartment 2, the rotating cabinet box 3 can be screwed in and out relative to the upper cabinet compartment 2. When the rotating cabinet box 3 is screwed out, it is open, allowing items to be placed inside or removed. When the rotating cabinet box 3 is screwed in, it is closed, and items are stored inside.
[0021] This utility model relates to a dental cabinet. The drawer 5 has two sides 51 slidably mounted on tracks on both sides of the cabinet body 1 on the lower cabinet compartment 4. The drawer 5 can slide along the tracks of the cabinet body 1, allowing it to open and close. When the drawer 5 is open, items can be placed into or removed from the rotating cabinet box 3. When the drawer 5 is closed, the drawer 5 is a closed storage device.
[0022] The dental cabinet of this utility model has a flip cover 6 above the top plate 11. Along the hinge axis L1 between the flip cover 6 and the top plate 11, the flip cover 6 can be flipped up to present different angles to facilitate the placement of different items, such as treatment records, diagnostic reports, books, tablet computers, etc.
[0023] This dental cabinet allows for the categorization and storage of dental instruments, materials, and medications within the rotating cabinet box 3 and the drawer 5. Frequently used instruments, materials, and medications are stored in the rotating cabinet box 3, while less frequently used instruments, materials, and medications are stored in the drawer 5. During treatment, the corresponding instruments, materials, and medications are accessed by opening the corresponding rotating cabinet box 3 and drawer 5, allowing for direct use.
[0024] This utility model of a dental cabinet includes drawers 5 on the cabinet body 1 for storing items. The drawers 5 have a regular structure, providing a large storage capacity. Furthermore, the drawers 5 are supported by forces on both sides, resulting in strong load-bearing capacity and a more stable opening and closing mechanism. Additionally, a rotating cabinet box 3 is also installed on the cabinet body 1 for storing items. The rotating cabinet box 3 allows for easy and convenient opening and closing, and its large rotation range makes it easy for the upper and lower cabinet boxes to open in a staggered manner, facilitating easy access for the dentist. This new dental cabinet, with its rotating cabinet box 3 and drawer 5 combined, not only meets daily storage needs but also, when the rotating cabinet boxes 3, located above and below the drawer 5, are opened in a staggered manner, they form a "display tray" for direct use by the dentist. This allows the dentist to directly retrieve necessary treatment items such as dental medications, instruments, and materials from the rotating cabinet box 3 during treatment, eliminating the need to move the items from the rotating cabinet box 3 to a tray and then place them on the worktable. This greatly simplifies treatment procedures and significantly improves efficiency. Furthermore, since the treatment items are already stored in the rotating cabinet box 3 and drawer 5, there is no issue of items being left behind during treatment. Moreover, the required treatment items are simply taken out for each treatment and returned to their original positions afterward. The relatively fixed positions of the required treatment items within the rotating cabinet box 3 and drawer 5 prevent confusion during treatment and make the process smoother.
[0025] This dental cabinet also features a flip-top 6 above the top plate 11. When one side of the flip-top 6 is flipped up, the entire unit tilts, and in this tilted state, it can serve as a backrest for placing dental treatment records, reports, books, tablets, etc. This dental cabinet offers diverse functions and can meet a wider range of needs during routine dental treatments.
[0026] Preferably, in this dental cabinet, the rotating cabinet boxes 3 are divided into upper and lower groups, with the hinge axes of the upper and lower groups of rotating cabinet boxes 3 located on opposite sides of the opening of the upper cabinet compartment 2. Alternatively, all the rotating cabinet boxes 3 can be located on the same side of the opening of the upper cabinet compartment 2; or they can be divided into upper and lower groups, with the hinge axes of the upper and lower groups of rotating cabinet boxes 3 located on opposite sides of the opening of the upper cabinet compartment 2. Compared to the former, the upper and lower groups of rotating cabinet boxes 3 are more staggered when opened, facilitating simultaneous opening and use.
[0027] Preferably, in this dental cabinet, the back of the flip cover 6 is provided with a support 7. One end of the support 7 is hinged to the back of the flip cover 6, and the hinge axis between the support 7 and the flip cover 6 is L2, with L2 and L1 being parallel. When the flip cover 6 is flipped up, the free end of the support 7 can be pushed against the top plate 11, so that the support 7 can support the flip cover 6 and keep the flip cover 6 in an inclined state. Books and other items can be supported on the inclined flip cover 6. With the support 7 provided on the back of the flip cover 6, the flip cover 6 has its own support structure, eliminating the need to find a separate accurate support structure for the flip cover 6, making it more convenient to use.
[0028] In this dental cabinet, preferably, the hinge point between the support 7 and the flip cover 6 is located at the middle position of the flip cover 6. With this arrangement, when the support 7 supports the flip cover 6, the middle position of the flip cover 6 is subjected to force, resulting in greater stability.
[0029] Preferably, the dental cabinet of this utility model has several limiting grooves 111 on the surface of the top plate 11, and the limiting grooves 111 are arranged at intervals along a horizontal direction perpendicular to L2. During operation, the free end of the support 7 is located within the limiting groove 111. This arrangement has two advantages: firstly, the limiting grooves 111 can limit the support 7, making the support 7 more stable; secondly, the multiple limiting grooves 111 are selectable, allowing the flip cover 6 to have different tilt angles when the support 7 is supported within different limiting grooves 111, to adapt to various usage needs.
[0030] Preferably, the back of the dental cabinet of this utility model has a receiving groove 62 for storing the bracket 7. This feature facilitates the storage of the bracket 7 and prevents the cover 6 from being raised due to the presence of the bracket 7.
