Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically relating to an orthodontic tooth separating forceps. Background Technology

[0002] Orthodontics is the process of correcting teeth, including malocclusion and other deformities. It primarily studies the etiology and mechanisms of malocclusion and other deformities, diagnoses and analyzes them, and explores their prevention and treatment. Orthodontics can also improve the appearance of teeth. When using fixed braces to correct malocclusion, the dentist must separate the mesial and distal spaces of the teeth where the orthodontic bands will be placed. This requires the use of appropriate separating rings and forceps.

[0003] A type of orthodontic separator ring placement forceps with patent number CN211863002U features a forceps head that can be easily installed and removed, making it easy to replace. This ensures that when the forceps head is damaged, the handle is not rendered unusable and can be reused, thus saving social resources and meeting people's needs.

[0004] However, in actual operation, the orthodontic separator ring placement forceps of this utility model have several drawbacks. Since the separator ring itself is a small rubber ring, it is easy for the operator to lose grip and fall off when holding it with the forceps, which is not conducive to the operation of the separator ring. At the same time, due to the small and complex environment in the oral cavity, it is sometimes difficult for medical staff to clearly observe the separator ring to be held and the teeth to be operated on when the forceps are inserted into the patient's oral cavity, resulting in insufficient intraoperative vision. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an orthodontic tooth separating forceps to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an orthodontic tooth separating forceps, comprising a first forceps bar and a second forceps bar, the first forceps bar and the second forceps bar being connected by a connecting mechanism, an auxiliary forceps head being fixedly connected to one end of each of the first forceps bar and the second forceps bar, the auxiliary forceps head being provided with a clamping mechanism, the clamping mechanism including an abutment block, the abutment block being fixedly connected inside the auxiliary forceps head, the clamping block being slidably connected inside the auxiliary forceps head, a limiting rod being fixedly connected to the clamping block, the limiting rod being slidably connected inside the auxiliary forceps head, and a second spring being wound around the side wall of the limiting rod inside the auxiliary forceps head, one end of the second spring being fixedly connected to the limiting rod, the other end of the second spring being fixedly connected to the inside of the auxiliary forceps head, and a probing mechanism being provided on the first forceps bar and the second forceps bar.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the connecting mechanism includes a docking block and a sleeve block. The docking block is fixedly connected to the first clamping rod, and the sleeve block is fixedly connected to the second clamping rod. The docking block is sleeved onto the sleeve block.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, a connecting shaft is provided between the mating block and the socket block, and the mating block is rotatably connected to the socket block through the connecting shaft.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a first spring is fixedly connected between the first clamp bar and the second clamp bar, and the first spring is located on one side of the connecting shaft.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, one end of the first and second clamps is provided with an operating mechanism, the operating mechanism including a handle, and the handle is fixedly connected to the end of the first and second clamps away from the auxiliary clamp head.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the handle is generally arc-shaped and is fitted with a protective sleeve.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the abutting block abuts against the clamping block, and the opposite ends of both the abutting block and the clamping block are arc-shaped.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the searchlight mechanism includes a searchlight body and mounting bolts, wherein the searchlight body is mounted on the end of the first clamp and the second clamp with an auxiliary clamp head via mounting bolts.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This invention, through the arrangement of a first clamp rod, a second clamp rod, a connecting block, a sleeve block, a connecting shaft, a first spring, a handle, auxiliary clamp heads, an abutment block, a clamping block, a limiting rod, and a second spring, allows the medical operator to place the required separating ring between the abutment block and the clamping block on the two auxiliary clamp heads during actual operation. Then, the operator can manually grasp the two handles and press them together. The two handles rotate through the connecting block and the sleeve block, in conjunction with the connecting shaft, causing the two auxiliary clamp heads at the ends of the first and second clamp rods to gradually open away from each other, simultaneously compressing the first spring. As the two auxiliary clamps open, the splitting rings on them gradually become stretched and pulled apart, which in turn puts pressure on the abutment block and the clamping block. The clamping block moves under pressure, the limit rod moves accordingly, and the second spring is compressed until the splitting ring is completely inserted between the abutment block and the second clamping block. Correspondingly, the clamping block will then clamp the splitting ring under the rebound action of the second spring, which makes it easier to clamp and limit the splitting ring during use, and prevents the splitting ring from falling off due to the operator's unstable grip. This is beneficial for the operation of the splitting ring.

[0016] This invention, by setting up a searchlight body and mounting bolts, allows for better observation of the surgical environment inside the mouth during the installation of the separator ring, given the confined and complex environment inside the mouth. The searchlight body at the ends of the first and second forceps can be powered on beforehand, and the light emitted by the searchlight body facilitates better observation of the surgical environment inside the mouth, making the intraoperative field of vision clearer. Afterwards, the searchlight body can be repaired or replaced at any time as needed using the mounting bolts. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0023] The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. The conditions in the embodiments can be further adjusted according to specific conditions, and simple improvements to the method of the present invention under the concept of the present invention are all within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides an orthodontic tooth separating forceps, including a first forceps bar 1 and a second forceps bar 2. The first forceps bar 1 and the second forceps bar 2 are connected by a connecting mechanism 3. An auxiliary forceps head 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the first forceps bar 1 and the second forceps bar 2, respectively. The auxiliary forceps head 5 is provided with a clamping mechanism 6, which includes an abutment block 601. The abutment block 601 is fixedly connected inside the auxiliary forceps head 5, and a clamping block 602 is slidably connected inside the auxiliary forceps head 5. A limiting rod 603 is fixedly connected to the clamping block 602. The limiting rod 603 is slidably connected inside the auxiliary forceps head 5, and a second spring 604 is wound around the side wall of the limiting rod 603 inside the auxiliary forceps head 5. One end of the second spring 604 is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 603, and the other end of the second spring 604 is fixedly connected to the inside of the auxiliary forceps head 5. A probing mechanism 7 is provided on the first forceps bar 1 and the second forceps bar 2.

[0025] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the connecting mechanism 3 includes a docking block 301 and a sleeve block 302. The docking block 301 is fixedly connected to the first clamping rod 1, and the sleeve block 302 is fixedly connected to the second clamping rod 2. The docking block 301 is sleeved on the sleeve block 302. A connecting shaft 303 is provided between the docking block 301 and the sleeve block 302, and the docking block 301 is rotatably connected to the sleeve block 302 through the connecting shaft 303. In use, the docking block 301 is rotatably connected to the sleeve block 302 through the connecting shaft 303, thereby causing the first clamping rod 1 and the second clamping rod 2 to rotate relative to each other. A first spring 304 is fixedly connected between the first clamping rod 1 and the second clamping rod 2, and the first spring 304 is located on one side of the connecting shaft 303. The first spring 304 facilitates the first clamping rod 1 and the second clamping rod 2 to spring back to their original positions.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, one end of the first clamp bar 1 and the second clamp bar 2 is provided with an operating mechanism 4. The operating mechanism 4 includes a handle 401. The handle 401 is fixedly connected to the end of the first clamp bar 1 and the second clamp bar 2 away from the auxiliary clamp head 5, so as to facilitate the operator to control the first clamp bar 1 and the second clamp bar 2. The handle 401 is arc-shaped, and a protective sleeve 402 is fitted on the handle 401 to facilitate better manual gripping of the handle 401.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the abutting block 601 abuts against the clamping block 602, and the opposite ends of the abutting block 601 and the clamping block 602 are both arc-shaped, in order to better clamp and limit the position of the splitting ring.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the illumination mechanism 7 includes an illumination lamp body 701 and mounting bolts 702. The first clamp 1 and the second clamp 2 are equipped with the illumination lamp body 701 at the end with the auxiliary clamp head 5 by mounting bolts 702, so as to facilitate the illumination of the oral cavity environment during operation.

[0029] The working principle and usage of this utility model are as follows: In actual operation, the medical operator can place the required separating ring between the contact block 601 and the clamping block 602 on the two auxiliary forceps heads 5. Then, the operator can manually grasp the two handles 401 and press them together. The two handles 401 rotate through the connecting block 301 and the sleeve block 302, in conjunction with the connecting shaft 303 on them. As a result, the two auxiliary forceps heads 5 at the ends of the first forceps bar 1 and the second forceps bar 2 gradually open away from each other. At the same time, the first spring 304 is compressed and contracts. During the opening process of the two auxiliary forceps heads 5, the... The splitting ring will gradually be pulled apart under force, which will then put pressure on the abutment block 601 and the clamping block 602. The clamping block 602 will move under pressure, and the limiting rod 603 will move accordingly. The second spring 604 will be compressed until the splitting ring is completely inserted between the abutment block 601 and the second clamping block 602. Correspondingly, the clamping block 602 will then clamp the splitting ring under the rebound action of the second spring 604. This makes it easier to clamp and limit the splitting ring during use, and prevents the splitting ring from falling off due to the operator's unstable grip. This is beneficial for the operation of the splitting ring.

[0030] Furthermore, during the installation of the separator ring, due to the confined and complex environment in the oral cavity, the power supply of the searchlight body 701 at the ends of the first forceps 1 and the second forceps 2 can be turned on in advance. The light emitted by the searchlight body 701 facilitates better observation of the surgical environment in the oral cavity, making the intraoperative field of vision clearer. Afterwards, the searchlight body 701 can be repaired or replaced at any time as needed through the mounting bolt 702.

[0031] 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.
