[0002] In dental examinations, when intraoral illumination is required, traditional lighting equipment or dental chair lights are often the only options. However, traditional lighting equipment has several drawbacks (e.g., a flashlight) requires manual operation by medical staff, hindering their work. Even with dental chair lights, the light is often obstructed by the doctor's or assistant's head. Existing lighting equipment suffers from several shortcomings: First, it requires staff to continuously support the patient's mouth, which is time-consuming, strenuous, and prone to hand fatigue. Second, fixed-angle lighting makes it difficult to fully observe deep oral structures, affecting diagnostic accuracy. Furthermore, the use of conventional rigid mouth openers can cause patient discomfort and even damage the oral mucosa. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings and defects of the existing technology by providing a bite pad-type oral auxiliary lighting device, which solves the technical problems such as inconvenient operation and limited lighting.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a bite pad type oral auxiliary lighting device, which includes a bite pad body and an adjusting wedge. The bite pad body has an opening on one side, and the adjusting wedge cooperates with the bite pad body through the opening. The bite pad body includes a front elastic plate, and side connecting plates are installed on both sides of the front elastic plate. An upper bite block and a lower bite block are installed at one end of the front elastic plate. There is a gap between the upper bite block and the lower bite block, and both ends of the upper bite block and the lower bite block are recessed inward. A bite protrusion is installed in the groove of the upper bite block and the middle of both sides of the upper bite block. An installation hole is opened in the middle of both sides of the upper bite block, and a lighting component is installed in the installation hole.
[0005] Furthermore, the lighting assembly includes a lighting control assembly, on which a universal adjustment tube is mounted, and an LED light group is mounted at the other end of the universal adjustment tube. A limit protrusion is mounted on the outer wall of the lighting control assembly.
[0006] Furthermore, the lighting control component is internally equipped with a battery and a control motherboard. The control motherboard is electrically connected to the battery, and a Bluetooth module, which is a TI CC chip, is installed on the control motherboard.
[0007] Furthermore, the upper biting block, biting protrusion, front elastic plate, side connecting plate, and lower biting block are all made of medical-grade silicone. Medical-grade silicone is non-toxic, odorless, heat-resistant, and highly malleable.
[0008] Furthermore, the two sides of the adjusting wedge are provided with several anti-slip grooves to enhance the anti-slip ability of the adjusting wedge.
[0009] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This bite pad type oral auxiliary lighting device has at least the following advantages: 1. By combining an occlusal pad with a lighting component, it can illuminate the inside of the patient's mouth while the mouth is open, eliminating the need for staff to keep the patient's mouth open for extended periods, making it more practical.
[0010] 2. The lighting components use a universal adjustable tube and LED light group, which allows the LED light group to be adjusted at multiple angles, making it easier for medical personnel to observe the depth of the patient's oral cavity more comprehensively.
[0011] 3. The main body of the bite pad is made of medical-grade silicone, which allows it to be sterilized with ethylene oxide or high-temperature steam, thereby avoiding cross-infection and increasing the patient's bite comfort.
[0012] 4. The occlusal pad can be adjusted in terms of its unfolding angle by adjusting the wedge, which can adapt to different jaw widths and mouth opening degrees, thus improving patient comfort. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0020] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model or the prior art, the drawings used in the description of the embodiments or the prior art will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort. Example
[0021] See Figures 1-5 As shown, the technical solution adopted in this specific embodiment is as follows: It includes a bite pad body and an adjusting wedge 1. The bite pad body has an opening on one side, and the adjusting wedge 1 cooperates with the bite pad body through the opening. The bite pad body includes a front elastic plate 5. Side connecting plates 6 are installed on both sides of the front elastic plate 5. An upper bite block 2 and a lower bite block 7 are installed at one end of the front elastic plate 5. There is a gap between the upper bite block 2 and the lower bite block 7, and both ends of the upper bite block 2 and the lower bite block 7 are recessed inward. A bite protrusion 4 is installed in the groove of the upper bite block 2 and the lower bite block 7. An installation hole 8 is opened in the middle of both sides of the upper bite block 2, and a lighting component 3 is installed in the installation hole 8.
[0022] As described above, there is a gap between the upper occlusal block 2 and the lower occlusal block 7, and the upper occlusal block 2 and the lower occlusal block 7 are connected by the front elastic plate 5 and the side connecting plate 6. When using it, the staff should first install the lighting component 3 at the mounting hole 8, and then put the main body of the occlusal pad into the patient's mouth. When it is necessary to adjust the gap between the upper occlusal block 2 and the lower occlusal block 7, simply insert the adjusting wedge 1 into the gap between the upper occlusal block 2 and the lower occlusal block 7. By adjusting the insertion depth of the adjusting wedge 1, the upper occlusal block 2 and the lower occlusal block 7 can be opened, thereby adjusting the gap between the occlusal block 2 and the lower occlusal block 7. When using it, the staff can use the lighting component 3 to perform oral cavity lighting operations, which makes it more convenient for the staff to perform related operations.
[0023] More preferably, the lighting component 3 includes a lighting control component 3-1, on which a universal adjustment tube 3-3 is installed, and an LED light group 3-4 is installed at the other end of the universal adjustment tube 3-3. A limiting protrusion 3-2 is installed on the outer wall of the lighting control component 3-1.
[0024] As can be seen from the above description, the staff can adjust the lighting angle of the lighting control component 3-1 at will, so that the lighting control component 3-1 can illuminate the oral cavity from multiple angles. The limiting protrusion 3-2 makes it easy for the lighting control component 3-1 to not fall off when the lighting component 3 is installed at the mounting hole 8.
[0025] More preferably, the lighting control component 3-1 has a battery and a control motherboard (not shown in the figure) inside. The control motherboard is electrically connected to the battery, and a Bluetooth module (not shown in the figure) is installed on the control motherboard. The Bluetooth module is a TI CC2541 chip.
[0026] As can be seen from the above description, the lighting control component 3-1 can be controlled and adjusted via Bluetooth, thereby controlling the brightness and color temperature of its LED light group 3-4, while the battery can provide sufficient power for the equipment, making it convenient for staff to use.
[0027] More preferably, the upper biting block 2, biting protrusion 4, front elastic plate 5, side connecting plate 6, and lower biting block 7 are all made of medical-grade silicone. Medical-grade silicone is non-toxic, odorless, heat-resistant, and highly malleable.
[0028] More preferably, the two sides of the adjusting wedge 1 are provided with a plurality of anti-slip grooves 101 to enhance the anti-slip ability of the adjusting wedge 1. Example
[0029] See Figure 6 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and embodiment one is that both ends of the upper biting block 2 and the lower biting block 7 are provided with mounting holes 8.
[0030] As can be seen from the above description, multiple mounting holes 8 can provide more installation positions for its staff, thereby facilitating the installation of its lighting components 3 and allowing staff to install the lighting components 3 according to the current situation, thereby increasing the lighting angle and range of the lighting components 3.
[0031] The above description is only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and is not intended to limit it. Any other modifications or equivalent substitutions made by those skilled in the art to the technical solution of this utility model, as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
