Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oral medical devices, and in particular to a coating structure for the piezoelectric ceramic part of a dental scaler transducer. Background Technology

[0002] The ultrasonic transducer is the main component of an ultrasonic scaler. It typically consists of three parts: an upper amplitude transformer, a middle piezoelectric ceramic element, and a lower main shaft. The amplitude transformer is installed inside the handle. The upper amplitude transformer is usually connected to the working tip of the ultrasonic scaler, which contacts the teeth in the patient's mouth. The high-frequency vibrations generated by the piezoelectric ceramic are transmitted to the teeth through the working tip, thus treating them.

[0003] Since dental scalers operate in a wet environment, a waterproof layer is applied to the circumference of the piezoelectric ceramic transducer to ensure a dry working environment. This waterproof layer is typically achieved through injection molding, where the injection-molded layer is integrally bonded to the piezoelectric ceramic. However, the high hardness of the injection-molded layer, coupled with the rigid contact between the layer and the outer shell, leads to wear. Because the injection-molded layer is integral with the piezoelectric ceramic, wear necessitates returning the piezoelectric ceramic to the manufacturer for re-bonding, resulting in high operating costs. Therefore, a coating structure for the piezoelectric ceramic in dental scaler transducers is needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a coating structure for the piezoelectric ceramic part of the transducer of a dental scaler, thereby solving the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A piezoelectric ceramic coating structure for a dental scaler transducer includes a main rod, a piezoelectric ceramic, an amplitude transformer, an upper housing, a lower housing, and an isolation sleeve. One end of the main rod is connected to one end of the piezoelectric ceramic, and the other end of the piezoelectric ceramic is connected to one end of the amplitude transformer. Both the piezoelectric ceramic and the amplitude transformer are disposed inside the upper housing. A working tip is provided on the other end of the amplitude transformer, and the working tip extends out of the upper housing. The isolation sleeve is disposed on the outer surface of the piezoelectric ceramic. One end of the upper housing is threadedly connected to one end of the lower housing.

[0006] Furthermore, a decorative ring is provided on one end of the lower outer shell, and the decorative ring is disposed between the upper outer shell and the lower outer shell. Furthermore, the isolation sleeve is disposed inside the upper outer shell, and the isolation sleeve includes two half-isolation sleeves, which are respectively disposed on the outer surface of the piezoelectric ceramic, and the two half-isolation sleeves are connected by snap-fit.

[0007] Furthermore, a slot is provided on one side of each of the two semi-isolation sleeves, and a block is provided on the other side of each of the two semi-isolation sleeves, with the block of one semi-isolation sleeve engaging in the slot of the other semi-isolation sleeve.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer diameters at both ends of the semi-isolation sleeve are smaller than the outer diameter in the middle, and a raised strip is provided on the outer surface of one end of the semi-isolation sleeve.

[0009] This utility model, by adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, has the following beneficial effects: This invention features an isolation sleeve attached to the outer surface of the piezoelectric ceramic. When the isolation sleeve is worn by the outer shell, it can be easily removed and replaced with a new one, eliminating the need to return it to the manufacturer and reducing operating costs.

One end of the main rod 1 is connected to one end of the piezoelectric ceramic 2, and the other end of the piezoelectric ceramic 2 is connected to one end of the amplitude transformer 3. Both the piezoelectric ceramic 2 and the amplitude transformer 3 are disposed inside the upper outer shell 4. A working tip 7 is provided on the other end of the amplitude transformer 3, extending beyond the outer surface of the upper outer shell 4. The function of the amplitude transformer 3 is to transmit the vibration of the piezoelectric ceramic 2 to the working tip 7. The isolation sleeve 6 is disposed on the outer surface of the piezoelectric ceramic 2 and is detachable from the piezoelectric ceramic 2. One end of the upper outer shell 4 is threadedly connected to one end of the lower outer shell 5. After the isolation sleeve 6 is worn by the outer shell, it can be removed and replaced with a new one for continued use without having to return it to the manufacturer, thus reducing operating costs.
