Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oral medical technology, specifically a cannula structure for removing broken instruments from root canals. Background Technology

[0002] Root canals are important internal structures of teeth. When problems such as pulpitis and periapical periodontitis occur, root canal treatment is an effective way to preserve the affected tooth. When treating root canals, special medical instruments are required. These instruments are generally small in size and are prone to breakage during treatment, leaving them in the root canal. In this case, the broken instrument needs to be removed.

[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN 118902644 A discloses a device for removing broken instruments from root canals, relating to the field of dental medical devices. The device includes a handle sleeve, a clamping assembly, a connector, and a lasso assembly. One end of the handle sleeve has a slot, and a clamping assembly for holding the lasso wire is disposed within the handle sleeve. A sliding button fixedly connected to the clamping assembly is located within the slot of the handle sleeve. By pushing the sliding button, the clamping assembly can move bidirectionally along a straight line within the handle sleeve, thereby controlling the size of the lasso. One end of the connector is inserted into the sleeve seat of the lasso assembly, and the other end is inserted and connected to the slotted end of the handle sleeve. The connector has a rolled edge and an observation window on the side connected to the handle sleeve. The connection between the connector and the sleeve seat, and between the clamping head and the inner cone of the connector, is a Morse taper connection.

[0004] The aforementioned broken instrument removal device uses a collar to remove residual instruments from the root canal. However, the sleeve of the device is a hollow tube, and its end has a component that limits the movement of the collar. When the collar fails to catch the residual instruments or other objects in the root canal, it retracts, at which point the collar will completely retract into the through hole inside the sleeve. After that, the collar may not be able to be pushed out of the central hole of the sleeve again, causing the device to malfunction. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a cannula structure for a root canal fracture instrument. By setting a limiting head and side grooves on both sides, it can ensure that the sling can move normally and limit the sling to prevent it from entering the extension tube completely and being unable to return to its original position, thereby solving the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0036] Please see Figure 1-13 In this embodiment of the utility model, a cannula structure for removing a broken instrument from a root canal includes a cannula structure 1, one end of which is connected to an inner tube structure 5 for storing a sling 2.

[0037] Connecting block 3, located inside the inner tube structure 5, is fixedly connected at one end to the storage sling 2 and at the other end to the push rod structure 4;

[0038] The inner tube structure 5 is located inside the outer tube structure 6, and the end of the outer tube structure 6 near the lasso 2 is connected to the storage structure 7.

[0039] The sleeve structure 1 includes an extension tube 11, one end of which is integrally provided with a limiting head 14; both sides of the limiting head 14 are provided with side through grooves 15; the inside of the extension tube 11 is provided with a through hole for receiving the lasso 2, and both side through grooves 15 are connected to the through hole of the extension tube 11; both ends of the lasso 2 extend into the through hole of the extension tube 11 through the two side through grooves 15 respectively, and the middle section of the lasso 2 corresponds to the position of the limiting head 14;

[0040] The extension tube 11 is coaxially and integrally provided with a connecting tube 12 at one end away from the limiting head 14; the connecting tube 12 is also provided with a through hole in the middle for the lasso 2 to pass through, and both ends of the lasso 2 are fixedly connected to the connecting block 3.

[0041] The inner tube structure 5 includes an inner tube body 51, with an internal thread on the inner side of the end of the inner tube body 51 near the connecting tube 12; the outer side of the connecting tube 12 is provided with a thread 13, and the connecting tube 12 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the inner tube body 51 through the thread 13; the end of the inner tube body 51 away from the connecting tube 12 is integrally provided with a protrusion 52, and both the middle of the inner side of the connecting tube 12 and the middle of the protrusion 52 are provided with cylindrical inner grooves for the normal movement of the push rod structure 4.

[0042] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting head 14 can limit and block the middle section of the lasso 2, preventing the middle section of the lasso 2 from completely entering the through hole of the extension tube 11 and being unable to reset; in addition, the side through grooves 15 provided on both sides of the limiting head 14 can also ensure the normal operation of the lasso 2 without affecting its normal movement.

[0043] In this embodiment, the push rod structure 4 includes a push rod 41, one end of which is located inside the inner tube body 51 and fixedly connected to the connecting block 3, and the other end is coaxially fixedly connected to a push cap 42; a spring 43 is provided on the outer side of the end of the push rod 41 near the connecting block 3; one end of the spring 43 is in contact with the baffle 44, and the other end is in contact with the inner wall of the inner tube body 51; the baffle 44 is annular and is coaxially fixedly connected to the push rod 41;

[0049] Medical staff can move the connecting block 3 by pushing the push rod 41, thereby moving the lasso 2. When the medical staff no longer applies the pushing force, the elastic force generated by the spring 43 can drive the push rod 41 to reset, reducing the difficulty of operation and improving the success rate of the work.

[0050] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
