Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical equipment cleaning technology, specifically a cleaning device for a medical orthodontic accelerator. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of orthodontic treatment, medical orthodontic accelerators, as an innovative auxiliary device, are gradually becoming an important tool for shortening the treatment cycle and improving treatment outcomes. Their working principle is based on the physiological remodeling characteristics of alveolar bone; that is, tooth movement is essentially a process of alveolar bone resorption and reconstruction under the action of orthodontic forces. The external force applied by the orthodontic appliance induces the production of osteoclasts on one side of the periodontal ligament (promoting bone resorption) and osteoblasts on the other side (promoting bone formation). The orthodontic accelerator accelerates this process through physical stimulation (such as low-frequency vibration or light energy), thereby significantly shortening the time required for orthodontic treatment and providing patients with a more efficient and comfortable treatment experience. However, with the widespread application of medical orthodontic accelerators, the issues of cleaning and disinfection have become increasingly prominent. The aligners on the head of the orthodontic accelerator, as the part that directly contacts the patient's mouth, are directly related to oral health and treatment effectiveness in terms of hygiene. During use, food debris, saliva, bacteria, and other contaminants accumulate on the surface of the aligners. If not cleaned promptly and thoroughly, this will not only affect the performance of the accelerator but may also become a source of oral infection, increasing the risk of cross-infection.

[0003] Currently, the most common method for cleaning braces on the market is to place them in an ultrasonic cleaner. Ultrasonic cleaners utilize the impact force generated by the explosion of tiny bubbles produced by high-frequency vibrations in a liquid to remove dirt from surfaces, thus achieving a certain cleaning effect. However, in practical application, this cleaning method has significant limitations. Because the braces are usually stationary inside the ultrasonic cleaner, the relative movement between their surface and the cleaning solution is insufficient, making it difficult for the cleaning solution to fully penetrate every corner of the braces. This is especially true for braces with complex structures and irregular shapes, which are more prone to creating cleaning blind spots. Furthermore, when multiple braces need to be cleaned simultaneously, the mutual obstruction between them further exacerbates the problem of incomplete cleaning, thus affecting the overall level of oral hygiene. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cleaning device for a medical orthodontic accelerator to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a medical orthodontic accelerator cleaning device, comprising an ultrasonic cleaner and a brace; a base is fixedly connected to the bottom of the ultrasonic cleaner, a motor is fixedly connected to the center of the base, a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, and the upper end of the rotating shaft is movably inserted into the ultrasonic cleaner; an inner ring is sleeved on the outer side of the rotating shaft, and an outer ring is connected to the outer side of the inner ring by several fixing rods; several placement holes are evenly provided on the upper ends of the inner and outer rings, and the bottom end of the brace is movably inserted into the placement hole; a clamping assembly is provided on one side of each of the placement holes; each clamping assembly includes a connecting rod, one end of the connecting rod is movably inserted into the placement hole and fixedly connected to a clamping block, the other end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a fixing block, and a spring is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block, the spring being sleeved around the connecting rod.

[0006] Preferably, each of the clamping blocks is arc-shaped, and a protective pad is fixedly connected to the inner side of each of the clamping blocks. Each of the protective pads is in close contact with the outer side of the bottom end of the corresponding brace.

[0007] Preferably, the inner ring is threadedly connected to the rotating shaft.

[0008] Preferably, a fixing ring is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the inner ring, the fixing ring is movably sleeved with the rotating shaft, and a plurality of fan blades are evenly fixed on the outer side of the fixing ring.

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] Please see Figure 1-4 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0018] Example 1: A medical orthodontic accelerator cleaning device includes an ultrasonic cleaner 1 and a brace 6. A base 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the ultrasonic cleaner 1, a motor 3 is fixedly connected to the center of the base 2, and a rotating shaft 4 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3. The upper end of the rotating shaft 4 is movably inserted into the ultrasonic cleaner 1. An inner ring 7 is sleeved on the outer side of the rotating shaft 4, and an outer ring 5 is connected to the outer side of the inner ring 7 via several fixing rods 12. Several placement holes 13 are evenly provided on the upper ends of the inner ring 7 and the outer ring 5. The bottom end of the brace 6 is movably inserted into the placement holes 13. A clamping assembly 8 is provided on one side of each placement hole 13. Each clamping assembly 8 includes a connecting rod 83, one end of which is movable. A clamping block 84 is inserted into the placement hole 13 and fixedly connected to it. A fixing block 81 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod 83. A spring 82 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block 81. The spring 82 is sleeved around the connecting rod 83. The outer walls of the inner ring 7 and the outer ring 5 are fixedly connected to the other ends of several springs 82. The rotating shaft 4 is driven by the motor 3 to rotate, which drives the inner ring 7 and the outer ring 5 to rotate synchronously, so that the braces 6 can be dynamically cleaned in the ultrasonic cleaner 1. Compared with the traditional static cleaning method, the dynamic rotation significantly enhances the relative movement between the surface of the braces 6 and the cleaning liquid, so that the cleaning liquid can fully penetrate into every corner of the braces 6, ensuring a comprehensive and thorough cleaning of the braces 6.

[0019] Several clamping blocks 84 are all arc-shaped, and protective pads 85 are fixedly connected to the inner side of several clamping blocks 84. Several protective pads 85 are tightly fitted to the outer side of the bottom end of the corresponding dental brace 6. The protective pads 85 can effectively protect the surface of the dental brace 6 from damage and extend the service life of the dental brace 6.

[0020] The inner ring 7 is threaded to the rotating shaft 4, which ensures that the rotating shaft 4 can drive the inner ring 7 to rotate, and also makes it easy to remove the inner ring 7 from the rotating shaft 4.

[0021] Several limiting rods 11 are vertically fixed at the upper end of the inner ring 7. When multiple inner rings 7 are installed on the rotating shaft 4, the limiting rods 11 can prevent two inner rings 7 from being too close together and squeezing the dental brace 6.

[0022] In use, insert the bottom ends of multiple dental braces 6 into several placement holes 13, setting up multiple dental braces 6 independently to prevent them from piling up and ensuring cleaning effectiveness. During this process, first pull the fixing block 81. The fixing block 81, through the connecting rod 83, moves the clamping block 84 within the placement holes 13. This process stretches the spring 82. Once the bottom end of the dental brace 6 is inserted into the placement hole 13, release the fixing block 81. The clamping block 84, through the rebound force of the spring 82, clamps the dental brace 6, improving its stability and preventing it from shaking or falling off during cleaning. Meanwhile, the protective pad 85 can effectively protect the surface of the braces 6 from damage and extend the service life of the braces 6. Finally, the motor 3 is started, and the rotating shaft 4 is driven by the motor 3 to rotate, which drives the inner ring 7 and the outer ring 5 to rotate synchronously, so that the braces 6 can be dynamically cleaned in the ultrasonic cleaner 1. Compared with the traditional static cleaning method, dynamic rotation significantly enhances the relative movement between the surface of the braces 6 and the cleaning liquid, so that the cleaning liquid can fully penetrate into every corner of the braces 6. Especially for braces 6 with complex structure and irregular shape, it can effectively eliminate cleaning dead corners and ensure a comprehensive and thorough cleaning of the braces 6.

[0023] In Example 2, based on the technical solution of Example 1, a fixing ring 10 is also provided. The fixing ring 10 is fixed at the bottom of the inner ring 7 and is movably connected to the rotating shaft 4. Several fan blades 9 are evenly fixed on the outer side of the fixing ring 10. When the rotating shaft 4 drives the inner ring 7 to rotate, it simultaneously drives the fixing ring 10 and the fan blades 9 to rotate. During the rotation, the cleaning liquid can be agitated to form a local water flow circulation, which not only accelerates the exchange of substances between the cleaning liquid and the surface of the dental brace 6 and improves the cleaning efficiency, but also helps to quickly remove the dirt and prevent the dirt from re-adhering to the surface of the dental brace 6, further improving the cleaning effect.

[0024] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
