Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument that can achieve full adaptation of intraoral morphology by adjusting the spatial position. Background Technology
[0002] As an important organ for food intake, oral health maintenance and treatment of oral diseases are closely related to overall health. The most common and effective way to maintain oral health is through regular teeth cleaning, while oral disease treatment includes a wide range of procedures such as periodontal treatment, dental implants, and tooth extractions.
[0003] Currently, intraoral procedures are typically performed using visual observation combined with intraoral mirror reflection, and occasionally with an intraoral microscope. Due to the small space and lack of a light source within the oral cavity, dentists usually rely on external light sources for illumination. However, during procedures, the dentist's need to bend over to observe the inside of the mouth easily blocks the light source. Especially when operating on deeper parts of the oral cavity, the location of the endoscope connector deep within the mouth and the obstruction from facial muscles make observation extremely difficult. The dentist frequently needs to adjust their head posture or bend over to adapt to the field of vision during cleaning. Furthermore, this prolonged head-down posture can easily lead to cervical spondylosis, lumbar spondylosis, and other related diseases.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, the applicant proposed a technical solution for an oral endoscope in the patent applications "Miniature Endoscope Mountable on Dental Instruments" (patent application numbers: 201910493765.6, 201920867889.1).
[0005] However, due to the small space and complex arrangement of teeth and other tissues in the oral cavity, endoscopes often cause visual obstruction or hinder instrument operation during use. Therefore, the purpose of this application is to design a multi-dimensional adjustable and visualized dental instrument that can achieve full adaptation to the intraoral morphology by adjusting the spatial state of the instrument or endoscope. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This utility model of a multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument features a special design that coordinates the main and auxiliary mounting positions with the turntable. The camera and treatment instrument are combined with the main and auxiliary mounting positions in different ways. A single turntable structure can achieve a visual treatment operation that adapts to the entire intraoral morphology. The structure is very simple and has a wide range of applications.
[0007] The multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument of this utility model is characterized in that: the multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument 900 includes a treatment instrument 100, an observation system 200, a spatial state adjustment device 300, and a connecting and fixing mechanism 400.
[0008] A. The observation system 200 includes a camera 21, a data collection and processing system 22, a circuit system 23, and a display device 24; the spatial state adjustment device 300 includes an adjustment turntable 31, on which an installation part 31-1 and an adjustment part 31-2 are provided; the connecting and fixing mechanism 400 includes a connecting part 41, a fixing mechanism 42, and a gripping part 43, on which a main mounting position 41-1 is provided;
[0009] B. The adjusting part 31-2 is sleeved on the outside of the main mounting position 41-1, and the fixing mechanism 42 is located at the distal end of the grip part 43, controlling the locking and loosening state of the adjusting turntable 31; when the fixing mechanism 42 is locked, the adjusting turntable 31 is locked, and the spatial state of the spatial state adjustment device 300 is locked, ensuring that the spatial position and angle of the diagnostic instrument 100 or the camera 21 remain stable during the diagnosis and treatment process; when the fixing mechanism 42 is loosened, the adjusting part 31-2 rotates around the main mounting position 41-1, which can adjust the spatial position and angle of the mounting part 31-1;
[0010] C. The diagnostic instrument 100 and the camera 21 are respectively installed in the mounting part 31-1 or the main mounting position 41-1; when the diagnostic instrument 100 is installed in the mounting part 31-1 and the camera 21 is installed in the main mounting position 41-1, when the fixing mechanism 42 is loosened, the adjusting part 31-2 drives the diagnostic instrument 100 to rotate around the camera 21, which can adjust the spatial position and angle of the diagnostic instrument 100 to adapt to the intraoral tissue morphology, and to perform diagnosis and treatment on any part of the body. All diagnostic and therapeutic instruments 100 are within the field of view of the camera 21, enabling full-view visualization and diagnosis. When the camera 21 is mounted on the mounting part 31-1 and the diagnostic and therapeutic instruments 100 are mounted on the main mounting position 41-1, when the fixing mechanism 42 is loosened, the adjusting part 31-2 drives the camera 21 to rotate around the diagnostic and therapeutic instruments 100, thereby adjusting the spatial position and angle of the camera 21, so that the camera 21 can perform full-view observation of the periphery of the diagnostic and therapeutic instruments 100 as needed.
[0011] The camera, the data collection and processing system 22, and the display device 24 are connected together via the circuit system 23. Data collected by the camera 21 is processed by the data collection and processing system 22 and then transmitted to the display device 24 for display. In practical applications, the processed data collected by the camera 21 can be transmitted to the display device 24 via a wired connection or via wireless means such as WiFi or Bluetooth.
[0012] When the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 is used for intraoral visualization, due to differences in treatment methods and the characteristics of intraoral tissue morphology, in clinical use, sometimes the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 or surrounding tissues may obstruct the observation angle of the observation system 200, and sometimes the camera 21 of the observation system 200 may hinder the operation of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument. Therefore, to achieve full visualization of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 during intraoral operation and ensure full adaptation to the intraoral morphology, it is necessary to be able to adjust the spatial position of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 or the camera 21 as needed to achieve full visualization of the treatment process. To achieve this objective, this utility model adopts a main and auxiliary mounting position design. The auxiliary mounting position rotates around the main mounting position to adjust its spatial position. Specifically, the main mounting position 41-1 is provided on the connecting part 41. The main mounting position 41-1 is usually in a fixed position. The adjusting turntable 31 is provided with a mounting part 31-1, which serves as the auxiliary mounting position. The mounting part 31-1 rotates around the main mounting position 41-1 via the adjusting part 31-2, causing the spatial position of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 or the camera 21 installed in the mounting part 31-1 to change accordingly. The diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 and the camera 21 can be set in the main mounting position 41-1 or the mounting part 31-1 as needed, and during clinical use, the mounting positions of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 and the camera 21 can be adjusted in real time as needed.
[0013] When the camera 21 is installed in the main mounting position 41-1, the treatment instrument 100, such as a periodontal probe or a gingival irrigator, is installed inside the mounting part 31-1. The adjustment part 31-2 is sleeved on the outside of the main mounting position 41-1 and rotates around the main mounting position 41-1. The treatment instrument 100 can rotate around the camera 21. In use, the treatment instrument 100 can be rotated to different positions according to different treatment sites, while ensuring that the operating part of the treatment instrument 100 is always within the observation range of the camera 21. For example, when the treatment instrument 100 is a periodontal probe 101, when probing the buccal periodontium, the camera 21 is located on the buccal side when the periodontal probe 101 enters the periodontium; when probing the lingual periodontium, the periodontal probe 101 is rotated to the other side, and at this time, when the periodontal probe 101 enters the periodontium, the camera 21 is located on the lingual side. During the diagnosis and treatment process, the camera 21 can observe the process in real time, regardless of the treatment site.
[0014] When the diagnostic instrument 100 is installed in the main mounting position 41-1, the camera 21 is installed inside the mounting part 31-1 and can rotate around the diagnostic instrument 100. In use, if the diagnostic instrument 100 is a root canal file 102, the root canal file 102 is installed in the main mounting position 41-1, and the camera 21 is installed inside the mounting part 31-1. During clinical operation, when it is necessary to observe the operational status of different parts of the root canal file 102, the camera 21 can be rotated around the root canal file 102 to provide real-time, all-around observation of the root canal file 102.
[0015] This utility model's multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument, through the spatial arrangement of the turntable and the main and auxiliary mounting positions, allows for two configurations: The camera 21 can be mounted on the main mounting position 41-1, and the treatment instrument 100 on the mounting part 31-1. The treatment instrument 100 can then rotate around the camera 21 to adapt to the internal oral cavity morphology, enabling visual diagnosis and treatment of different locations within the oral cavity as needed. Alternatively, the treatment instrument 100 can be mounted on the main mounting position 41-1, and the camera 21 on the mounting part 31-1. The camera 21 can then rotate around the treatment instrument 100 for comprehensive real-time observation. This multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument, through different combinations of the camera 21 and the treatment instrument 100 with the main and auxiliary mounting positions, and the dynamic adjustment of the mounting positions in real-time as needed during clinical use, achieves fully visualized diagnostic and treatment operations adapting to the entire intraoral morphology through a single turntable structure.
[0016] The fixing mechanism 42 is a threaded rotation fixing mechanism, which is a threaded fixing sleeve 42-1 with an internal thread 42-11 on its inner wall. The connecting part 41 has an external thread 41-2 on the proximal outer surface of the main mounting position 41-1. When the threaded fixing sleeve 42-1 is rotated, it moves to the distal end and abuts against the proximal outer surface of the adjusting part 31-2, thus forming a fixing effect with the main mounting position 41-1 and locking the adjusting part 31-2. When the threaded fixing sleeve 42-1 is rotated in the opposite direction, it retracts to the proximal end and separates from the adjusting part 31-2. The adjusting part 31-2 is then relaxed and can rotate around the camera 21, thereby adjusting the spatial position and angle of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100. The threaded rotation fixing method, especially when a self-locking thread design is adopted, allows for sufficient pressure on the proximal outer surface of the adjusting part 31-2 during clinical operation by continuously rotating the fixing mechanism 42. This ensures that the proximal end of the adjusting part 31-2 is tightly embedded between the fixing mechanism 42 and the connecting part 41, forming a stable fixed connection. The purpose of fixing the structure is achieved through the synergistic effect of kinematics and spatial structure. When relaxation is needed, simply rotate in the opposite direction, making the operation very convenient. In practical applications, those skilled in the art can design fixing mechanisms 42 with different structures as needed. The applicant will not provide examples here, but all of them are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0017] The adjusting turntable 31 is made of an elastic material. The adjusting turntable 31 is typically made of a material with appropriate elasticity, while the fixing mechanism 42 is typically made of a rigid material. This contact method between the rigid and elastic materials allows the fixing mechanism 42 to appropriately compress and deform the contact surface of the adjusting turntable 31 during rotation, resulting in a stable surface contact between the fixing mechanism 42 and the adjusting turntable 31. This ensures continuous pressure from the fixing mechanism 42 on the adjusting turntable 31, while the contact area between the elastic and rigid materials exhibits a significant frictional effect, creating further frictional resistance and improving the contact stability between the contact surfaces of the fixing mechanism 42 and the adjusting turntable 31.
[0018] The diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 is installed in the mounting part 31-1 or the main mounting position 41-1 by means of interference fit.
[0019] The camera 21 is installed in the mounting part 31-1 or the main mounting position 41-1 by means of interference fit.
[0020] In clinical use, the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 or the camera 21 can be installed in the main mounting position 41-1 or the mounting part 31-1 as needed. Through different installation combinations and adjustments to the mounting position as needed during use, a visual diagnostic and therapeutic operation adapting to the entire intraoral morphology can be achieved. Besides interference fit, the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 and the camera 21 can also be connected by rotation, snap-fit, or other methods. The applicant will not list all of these methods here, but they all fall within the scope of protection of this application.
[0021] The contact surface of the mounting part 31-1 or the main mounting position 41-1 is provided with anti-slip texture to increase the friction when the diagnostic instrument 100 or the camera 21 is mounted on the mounting part 31-1 or the main mounting position 41-1, thereby enhancing the stability of the connection. To ensure the installation stability of the diagnostic instrument 100 and the camera 21, the surface friction of the diagnostic instrument 100 and the camera 21 can be increased by designing anti-slip texture or adding an anti-friction coating on the inner surface of the mounting part 31-1 or the main mounting position 41-1, thereby enhancing the stability of the connection.
[0022] The multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument 900 also includes a drive mechanism 500. The drive mechanism 500 can push the adjustment turntable 31 during use, and adjust the spatial position of the adjustment turntable 31 in real time outside the mouth during clinical operation, which is more conducive to the continuous clinical operation.
[0023] The drive mechanism 500 includes a knob 51, a drive shaft 52, and a drive gear 53. The drive gear 53 includes a driving gear 53-1 and a driven gear 53-2. The knob 51 is located at the proximal end of the drive shaft 52, the driving gear 53-1 is located at the distal end of the drive shaft 52, and the driven gear 53-2 is located at the lower part of the adjustment section 31-2. When the knob 51 is rotated, the drive shaft 52 drives the driving gear 53-1 to rotate, which in turn drives the adjustment turntable 31 to rotate, causing the diagnostic instrument 100 to rotate around the camera 21. The force transmission method of the drive gears allows for steering of movement even outside the mouth, providing excellent adaptability to the specific and complex environment inside the oral cavity. The speed ratio design between the driving gear 53-1 and the driven gear 53-2 also allows for precise control, offering a particularly significant advantage for adjusting minute dimensions within the mouth.
[0024] The drive shaft 52 is a flexible drive shaft 52-1. Because the flexible drive shaft 52-1 adopts a flexible transmission technology, it can be designed as a multi-angle spatial transmission system according to the spatial structure inside and outside the mouth. The connecting part 41 can be designed as a multi-dimensional spatial three-dimensional structure to work in conjunction with the adjusting turntable 21 to adapt to the full shape inside and outside the mouth.
[0025] The multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument 900 also includes a pressure detection mechanism 600. To prevent accidental injury that may be caused by excessive force during treatment, the pressure detection mechanism 600 can monitor the operating pressure of the treatment instrument 100 in real time to ensure the safety of clinical operation.
[0026] The pressure detection mechanism 600 includes a pressure probe 61 and a pressure display device 62. The pressure probe 61 is located at the distal end of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100, and the pressure detected by the pressure probe 61 is displayed on the pressure display device 62. The pressure probe 61 is typically located at the distal end of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 to measure the pressure applied to the tissue by the instrument 100 during operation as accurately as possible. In addition to displaying the pressure, the pressure display device 62 can also be set with alarm parameters based on clinical parameters. It can provide timely warnings when the pressure exceeds the safe range. It can also be systematically designed with the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 so that when the set safe pressure value is reached, the operating pressure of the instrument 100 reaches the safe upper limit and cannot be increased further, thereby better ensuring the safety of clinical operations.
[0027] The multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument 900 also includes a rinsing mechanism 700. The rinsing mechanism 700 can rinse the camera 21 or surrounding tissue during operation to ensure the clarity of the camera 21 and the clarity of observation of surrounding tissue.
[0028] The diagnostic instrument 100 has an internal rinsing channel 11, forming the rinsing mechanism 700. Cleaning fluid is used to rinse surrounding tissues or the camera 21 through the rinsing channel 11. The rinsing mechanism 700 can be constructed using the rinsing channel 11; simply connecting the rinsing channel 11 to an external rinsing pipe allows for easy access to the cleaning fluid for rinsing—a very simple structure. The rinsing mechanism 700 can also be a separate structure, such as an external rinsing pipe, used to rinse the multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental diagnostic instrument 900 and the tissues at the operating site as needed. The applicant will not provide specific examples here, but all are within the scope of this application.
[0029] In clinical use, when performing periodontal probing or teeth cleaning, the camera 21 is installed in the main mounting position 41-1. The treatment instrument 100, such as a periodontal probe or gingival irrigator, is installed within the mounting part 31-1. The adjustment part 31-2 is fitted onto the outside of the main mounting position 41-1 and rotates around it. The treatment instrument 100 can then rotate around the camera 21. During use, the treatment instrument 100 can be rotated to different locations depending on the treatment area, while ensuring that the operating part of the treatment instrument 100 remains within the observation range of the camera 21. When the diagnostic instrument 100 is a periodontal probe 101, when probing the buccal periodontium, the camera 21 is located on the buccal side when the periodontal probe 101 enters the periodontium; when probing the lingual periodontium, the periodontal probe 101 is rotated to the other side, and at this time, when the periodontal probe 101 enters the periodontium, the camera 21 is located on the lingual side. During the treatment process, regardless of the treatment site, the camera 21 can observe the treatment process in real time.
[0030] When performing root canal treatment or other procedures, the root canal file 102 is installed on the main mounting position 41-1, and the camera 21 is installed inside the mounting part 31-1. During clinical operations, when it is necessary to observe the operating status of different parts of the root canal file 102, the camera 21 is rotated around the root canal file 102 to observe the root canal file 102 from different angles.
[0031] This utility model discloses a multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument comprising a treatment instrument 100, an observation system 200, a spatial state adjustment device 300, and a connecting and fixing mechanism 400. The spatial state adjustment device 300 includes an adjustment turntable 31, which has a mounting part 31-1 and an adjustment part 31-2. The connecting and fixing mechanism 400 includes a connecting part 41, a fixing mechanism 42, and a gripping part 43. The connecting part 41 has a main mounting position 41-1. The adjustment part 31-2 is sleeved on the outside of the main mounting position 41-1, and the fixing mechanism 42 is located at the distal end of the gripping part 43, controlling the locking and unlocking states of the adjustment turntable 31. The treatment instrument 100 and the camera 21 are respectively installed in the mounting part 31-1 or the main mounting position 41-1 as needed. When the diagnostic instrument 100 is mounted on the mounting part 31-1 and the camera 21 is mounted on the main mounting position 41-1, the diagnostic instrument 100 can rotate around the camera 21, adjusting its spatial position and angle to adapt to the morphology of intraoral tissues. When treating any part of the body, the diagnostic instrument 100 remains within the field of view of the camera 21, achieving full-view visualization. When the camera 21 is mounted on the mounting part 31-1 and the diagnostic instrument 100 is mounted on the main mounting position 41-1, the camera 21 can rotate around the diagnostic instrument 100, adjusting its spatial position and angle, allowing the camera 21 to observe the entire periphery of the diagnostic instrument 100 as needed. This utility model's multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument integrates the camera 21 and the treatment instrument 10 into a whole through the adjustment turntable 31. By using different combinations of the camera 21 and the treatment instrument 100 with the main and auxiliary mounting positions, and by dynamically adjusting the mounting positions in real time as needed during clinical use, a single turntable structure can achieve a visual treatment operation that adapts to the full morphology of the intraoral cavity.

Detailed Implementation
[0049] Example 1: The Multi-Dimensional Adjustable Visual Dental Treatment Instrument of this Utility Model
[0050] refer to Figures 1 to 1-5 The multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument of this embodiment includes a treatment instrument 100, an observation system 200, a spatial state adjustment device 300, and a connection and fixing mechanism 400.
[0051] The observation system 200 includes a camera 21, a data collection and processing system 22, a circuit system 23, and a display device 24. The camera, the data collection and processing system 22, and the display device 24 are connected together through the circuit system 23. Data collected by the camera 21 is processed by the data collection and processing system 22 and then transmitted to the display device 24 for display. In practical applications, the processed data collected by the camera 21 can be transmitted to the display device 24 via a wired connection or via wireless means such as WiFi or Bluetooth.
[0052] The spatial state adjustment device 300 includes an adjustment turntable 31, on which a mounting part 31-1 and an adjustment part 31-2 are provided. The connecting and fixing mechanism 400 includes a connecting part 41, a fixing mechanism 42 and a gripping part 43, on which a main mounting position 41-1 is provided.
[0053] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 1-1 The adjustment part 31-2 is sleeved on the outside of the main mounting position 41-1, and the fixing mechanism 42 is located at the far end of the grip part 43, controlling the locking and loosening state of the adjustment turntable 31; when the fixing mechanism 42 is locked, the adjustment turntable 31 is locked, and the spatial state of the spatial state adjustment device 300 is locked, ensuring that the spatial position and angle of the diagnostic instrument 100 or the camera 21 remain stable during the diagnosis and treatment process; when the fixing mechanism 42 is loosened, the adjustment part 31-2 rotates around the main mounting position 41-1, which can adjust the spatial position and angle of the mounting part 31-1.
[0054] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 1-5In this embodiment, the fixing mechanism 42 is a threaded rotation fixing mechanism, which is a threaded fixing sleeve 42-1 with an internal thread 42-11 on its inner wall. The connecting part 41 has an external thread 41-2 on the proximal outer surface of the main mounting position 41-1. When the threaded fixing sleeve 42-1 is rotated, it moves distally and abuts against the proximal outer surface of the adjusting part 31-2, thus forming a fixing effect with the main mounting position 41-1 and locking the adjusting part 31-2. When the threaded fixing sleeve 42-1 is rotated in the opposite direction, it retracts proximally and separates from the adjusting part 31-2. The adjusting part 31-2 is then relaxed and can rotate around the camera 21, thereby adjusting the spatial position and angle of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100. The threaded rotation fixing method, especially when a self-locking thread design is adopted, allows for sufficient pressure on the proximal outer surface of the adjusting part 31-2 during clinical operation by continuously rotating the fixing mechanism 42. This ensures that the proximal end of the adjusting part 31-2 is tightly embedded between the fixing mechanism 42 and the connecting part 41, forming a stable fixed connection. The purpose of fixing the structure is achieved through the synergistic effect of kinematics and spatial structure. When relaxation is needed, simply rotate in the opposite direction, making the operation very convenient. In practical applications, those skilled in the art can design fixing mechanisms 42 with different structures as needed. The applicant will not provide examples here, but all of them are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0055] The adjusting turntable 31 is made of an elastic material. The adjusting turntable 31 is typically made of a material with appropriate elasticity, while the fixing mechanism 42 is typically made of a rigid material. This contact method between the rigid and elastic materials allows the fixing mechanism 42 to appropriately compress and deform the contact surface of the adjusting turntable 31 during rotation, resulting in a stable surface contact between the fixing mechanism 42 and the adjusting turntable 31. This ensures continuous pressure from the fixing mechanism 42 on the adjusting turntable 31, while the contact area between the elastic and rigid materials exhibits a significant frictional effect, creating further frictional resistance and improving the contact stability between the contact surfaces of the fixing mechanism 42 and the adjusting turntable 31.
[0056] When the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 is used for intraoral visualization, due to differences in treatment methods and the characteristics of intraoral tissue morphology, in clinical use, sometimes the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 or surrounding tissues may obstruct the observation angle of the observation system 200, and sometimes the camera 21 of the observation system 200 may hinder the operation of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument. Therefore, to achieve full visualization of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 during intraoral operation and ensure full adaptation to the intraoral morphology, it is necessary to be able to adjust the spatial position of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 or the camera 21 as needed to achieve full visualization of the treatment process. To achieve this objective, this embodiment employs a main and secondary mounting position design. The secondary mounting position rotates around the main mounting position to adjust its spatial position. Specifically, the main mounting position 41-1 is provided on the connecting part 41. The main mounting position 41-1 is typically in a fixed position. The adjusting turntable 31 is provided with a mounting part 31-1, which serves as the secondary mounting position. The mounting part 31-1 rotates around the main mounting position 41-1 via the adjusting part 31-2, causing the spatial position of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 or the camera 21 installed within the mounting part 31-1 to change accordingly. The diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 and the camera 21 can be positioned within the main mounting position 41-1 or the mounting part 31-1 as needed, and during clinical use, the mounting positions of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 and the camera 21 can be adjusted in real time as required.
[0057] refer to Figures 1 to 1-5 The diagnostic instrument 100 is a periodontal probe 101. When the camera 21 is installed in the main mounting position 41-1 by an interference fit, the periodontal probe 101 is installed in the mounting part 31-1 by an interference fit. The adjustment part 31-2 is sleeved on the outside of the main mounting position 41-1. The adjustment part 31-2 rotates around the main mounting position 41-1. When probing the periodontal tissue on the buccal side, when the periodontal probe 101 enters the periodontal tissue, the camera 21 is located on the buccal side. When probing the periodontal tissue on the lingual side, the periodontal probe 101 is rotated to the other side. At this time, when the periodontal probe 101 enters the periodontal tissue, the camera 21 is located on the lingual side. During the diagnosis and treatment process, when the fixation mechanism 42 is loosened, the adjustment part 31-2 drives the diagnostic and treatment instrument 100 to rotate around the camera 21, which can adjust the spatial position and angle of the diagnostic and treatment instrument 100 to adapt to the full morphology of the intraoral tissue. When any part is diagnosed and treated, the diagnostic and treatment instrument 100 is within the observation field of the camera 21, realizing the visualization diagnosis and treatment of the full morphology.
[0058] refer to Figure 4The diagnostic instrument 100 is a root canal file 102, which is mounted on the main mounting position 41-1 by an interference fit. The camera 21 is mounted inside the mounting part 31-1 by an interference fit. The adjustment part 31-2 is sleeved on the outside of the main mounting position 41-1 and can rotate around the main mounting position 41-1. In clinical operation, when it is necessary to observe the operating status of different parts of the root canal file 102, when the fixing mechanism 42 is loose, the camera 21 can be rotated around the root canal file 102 to observe the root canal file 102 in real time from all angles, achieving the clinical purpose of real-time observation of the entire field of view.
[0059] In addition to being installed by an interference fit, the diagnostic and therapeutic device 100 and the camera 21 can also be connected by rotation, snap-fit, or other methods. The applicant will not give examples of each of these methods here, but they all fall within the scope of protection of this application.
[0060] To ensure the installation stability of the diagnostic and therapeutic device 100 and the camera 21, the surface friction of the diagnostic and therapeutic device 100 and the camera 21 can be increased by designing anti-slip textures or adding anti-friction coatings on the inner surface of the mounting part 31-1 or the main mounting position 41-1, so as to enhance the stability of the connection.
[0061] This utility model's multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument, through the spatial arrangement of the turntable and the main and auxiliary mounting positions, allows for two configurations: The camera 21 can be mounted on the main mounting position 41-1, and the treatment instrument 100 on the mounting part 31-1. The treatment instrument 100 can then rotate around the camera 21 to adapt to the internal oral cavity morphology, enabling visual diagnosis and treatment of different locations within the oral cavity as needed. Alternatively, the treatment instrument 100 can be mounted on the main mounting position 41-1, and the camera 21 on the mounting part 31-1. The camera 21 can then rotate around the treatment instrument 100 for comprehensive real-time observation. This multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument, through different combinations of the camera 21 and the treatment instrument 100 with the main and auxiliary mounting positions, and the dynamic adjustment of the mounting positions in real-time as needed during clinical use, achieves fully visualized diagnostic and treatment operations adapting to the entire intraoral morphology through a single turntable structure.
[0062] In clinical use, when performing periodontal probing or teeth cleaning, the camera 21 is installed in the main mounting position 41-1. The treatment instrument 100, such as a periodontal probe or gingival irrigator, is installed within the mounting part 31-1. The adjustment part 31-2 is fitted onto the outside of the main mounting position 41-1 and rotates around it. The treatment instrument 100 can then rotate around the camera 21. During use, the treatment instrument 100 can be rotated to different locations depending on the treatment area, while ensuring that the operating part of the treatment instrument 100 remains within the observation range of the camera 21. When the diagnostic instrument 100 is a periodontal probe 101, when probing the buccal periodontium, the camera 21 is located on the buccal side when the periodontal probe 101 enters the periodontium; when probing the lingual periodontium, the periodontal probe 101 is rotated to the other side, and at this time, when the periodontal probe 101 enters the periodontium, the camera 21 is located on the lingual side. During the treatment process, regardless of the treatment site, the camera 21 can observe the treatment process in real time.
[0063] When performing root canal treatment or other procedures, the root canal file 102 is installed on the main mounting position 41-1, and the camera 21 is installed inside the mounting part 31-1. During clinical operations, when it is necessary to observe the operating status of different parts of the root canal file 102, the camera 21 is rotated around the root canal file 102 to observe the root canal file 102 from different angles.
[0064] The multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument of this embodiment integrates the camera 21 and the treatment instrument 100 into a whole through the adjustment turntable 31. By using different combinations of the camera 21 and the treatment instrument 100 with the main and auxiliary mounting positions, and by dynamically adjusting the mounting positions in real time as needed during clinical use, a single turntable structure can realize a visual treatment operation that adapts to the full morphology of the intraoral cavity.
[0065] Example 2: Multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument of this utility model with pressure detection mechanism
[0066] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 2-1 The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument in this embodiment also includes a pressure detection mechanism 600.
[0067] The pressure detection mechanism 600 includes a pressure probe 61 and a pressure display device 62. The pressure probe 61 is located at the distal end of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100, and the pressure detected by the pressure probe 61 is displayed on the pressure display device 62. The pressure probe 61 is typically located at the distal end of the diagnostic and therapeutic instrument 100 to measure the pressure exerted on tissue by the instrument 100 during operation as accurately as possible. Figure 2-1 In addition to displaying pressure, the pressure display device 62 can also be set with alarm parameters based on clinical parameters. When the pressure exceeds the safe range, it can provide timely warnings. It can also be systematically designed with the diagnostic and therapeutic device 100. When the set safe pressure value is reached, the operating pressure of the diagnostic and therapeutic device 100 reaches the safe upper limit and cannot be increased further, thereby better ensuring the safety of clinical operations.
[0068] In this embodiment, to prevent accidental injury that may be caused by excessive force during diagnosis and treatment, the pressure detection mechanism 600 can monitor the operating pressure of the diagnostic and treatment device 100 in real time to ensure the safety of clinical operation.
[0069] Example 3: Multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument of this utility model with a drive mechanism
[0070] refer to Figures 3 to 3-3 The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument in this embodiment also includes a drive mechanism 500.
[0071] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 3-3 The drive mechanism 500 includes a knob 51, a drive shaft 52, and a drive gear 53. The drive gear 53 includes a driving gear 53-1 and a driven gear 53-2. The knob 51 is located at the proximal end of the drive shaft 52, the driving gear 53-1 is located at the distal end of the drive shaft 52, and the driven gear 53-2 is located at the lower part of the adjustment section 31-2. When the knob 51 is rotated, the drive shaft 52 drives the driving gear 53-1 to rotate, which in turn drives the adjustment turntable 31 to rotate, causing the diagnostic instrument 100 to rotate around the camera 21. The force transmission method of the drive gears allows for steering of movement outside the mouth, providing excellent adaptability to the specific complex environment inside the oral cavity. The speed ratio design between the driving gear 53-1 and the driven gear 53-2 also allows for precise control, offering a particularly significant advantage for adjusting minute dimensions within the mouth.
[0072] refer to Figure 3-2The drive shaft 52 is a flexible drive shaft 52-1. Because the flexible drive shaft 52-1 adopts a flexible transmission technology, it can be designed as a multi-angle spatial transmission system according to the spatial structure inside and outside the mouth. The connecting part 41 can be designed as a multi-dimensional spatial structure to work in conjunction with the adjusting turntable 21 to adapt to the full shape inside and outside the mouth.
[0073] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 500 can push the adjustment turntable 31 during use, and adjust the spatial position of the adjustment turntable 31 in real time outside the mouth during clinical operation to achieve the purpose of state adjustment, which is more conducive to the continuous operation of clinical operation.
[0074] To ensure a clear field of view during operation, the multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental treatment instrument 900 can also be equipped with a rinsing mechanism 700.
[0075] The rinsing mechanism 700 can rinse the camera 21 or surrounding tissue during operation to ensure the clarity of the camera 21 and the clarity of observation of the surrounding tissue.
[0076] refer to Figure 3-2 In this embodiment, the diagnostic instrument 100 has an internal rinsing channel 11 forming the rinsing mechanism 700. Cleaning fluid is used to rinse surrounding tissues or the camera 21 through the rinsing channel 11. The rinsing mechanism 700 can be constructed using the rinsing channel 11; simply connecting the rinsing channel 11 to an external rinsing pipe allows for easy access to the cleaning fluid for rinsing—a very simple structure. The rinsing mechanism 700 can also be a separate structure, such as an external rinsing pipe, used to rinse the multi-dimensional adjustable visual dental diagnostic instrument 900 and the tissues at the operating site as needed. The applicant will not provide specific examples here, but all are within the scope of this application.
[0077] It should be noted that the structures disclosed and described herein can be replaced by other structures with the same effect, and the embodiments described herein are not the only structures for implementing this utility model. Although preferred embodiments of this utility model have been described and illustrated herein, those skilled in the art will understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative, and those skilled in the art can make numerous variations, improvements, and substitutions without departing from this utility model. Therefore, the scope of protection of this utility model should be defined in accordance with the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
