Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device storage technology, specifically a storage box for orthodontic consumables. Background Technology
[0002] Oral medicine applies the theories and techniques of modern biology, basic medicine, clinical medicine, engineering, and other natural sciences. Orthodontics, as a branch of oral medicine, requires the use of an orthodontic consumable storage box during the orthodontic process. Currently, there is no consumable storage box specifically designed for orthodontics, but patients often encounter various difficulties and inconveniences when using these items during treatment.
[0003] For example, a commonly used oral material management device with application number CN202323010591.4 includes: a box body, with multiple first slots on both opposite inner sidewalls of the box body, and recessed partitions inserted into the first slots. Multiple recessed partitions divide the internal space of the box body into multiple roll-type material storage cavities. The sidewalls of the box body have elongated openings that communicate with the roll-type material storage cavities. Multiple core rods, adjustable in length, are positioned at both ends within the grooves of two adjacent recessed partitions. Adjusting the length of the core rods changes the size of the roll-type material storage cavities. The length direction of the elongated openings is aligned with the axial direction of the core rods. By using adjustable-length core rods, different types of roll-type materials can be threaded through the core rods and placed in the roll-type material storage cavities. When needed, the roll-type materials are simply threaded through the elongated openings. However, this storage box cannot effectively and systematically organize linear items. It is inconvenient to operate when using linear items, as the items are scattered and there are many different types of items. When retrieving these items, time is wasted, and it is easy to take the wrong item or not replenish it in time.
[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure to propose a storage box for orthodontic consumables. Utility Model Content
