Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a set including a syringe tip that is attached to the tip of a syringe containing a viscous material to eject the viscous material, the viscous material, and the syringe. [Background technology]

[0002] In the dental field, pasty materials (viscous materials) such as dental filling materials and materials for making dental crowns are sometimes filled into an injector such as a syringe that contains the pasty material inside in order to optimize the amount of discharge. One such injector is one in which a replaceable syringe tip is attached to the tip of a cylindrically formed syringe, as described in Patent Document 1. The syringe tip has a flow path formed therein, one end of which is connected to an outlet, and is configured to discharge the pasty material filled in the syringe from the outlet of the syringe tip via the flow path of the syringe tip by pushing in a push rod from the rear end side of the syringe.

[0022] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the configuration of a nozzle-replaceable injector 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the injector 1 includes a syringe 2 and a syringe tip 3 that is detachably screwed to a tip portion 21 of the syringe 2. In this embodiment, a viscous material is stored inside the syringe 2. In this embodiment, the injector 1 constitutes a set of the present invention. The syringe tip 3 of this embodiment is attached and fixed to the tip portion of the syringe 2 by rotating the syringe tip 3 in a predetermined direction from the tip of the syringe 2.

[0023] FIG. 2 is a front view of the syringe 2, FIG. 3 is a plan view of the syringe 2, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the syringe 2 taken along line II in FIG. 2. The syringe 2 is sometimes referred to as a barrel. The syringe 2 is a cylindrical member centered on a central axis C1, and is made of, for example, a resin material or a glass material. Examples of resin materials that can be used include polyethylene, polyacetal, polypropylene, polyamide, vinyl chloride resin, nylon, phenolic resin, polyurethane, saturated polyester resin, melamine resin, polyvinylidene chloride, unsaturated polyester resin, polybutadiene, polystyrene, EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) resin, styrene resin, polymethylpentene, methacrylic styrene, ABS (acrylonitrile, butadiene, styrene) resin, and polycarbonate. In this embodiment, the syringe 2 is made of polypropylene.

[0024] The syringe 2 of this embodiment includes a push rod 4. The push rod 4 is sometimes called a plunger. The syringe 2 of this embodiment includes a tip portion 21 having a discharge port 21a at one end, a rear end portion 22 having an insertion port 22a at one end into which the push rod 4 described below is inserted, and a main body portion 23 located between the tip portion 21 and the rear end portion 22. The outer diameter of the syringe 2 can be, for example, 3 mm to 15 mm.

[0025] The tip portion 21 of this embodiment is formed in a tapered tubular shape with a cross-sectional size decreasing toward the discharge port 21a. The dimension of the tip portion 21 in the longitudinal direction of the syringe can be, for example, 1 mm to 20 mm. The main body portion 23 of this embodiment is formed in a cylindrical shape so that the cross-sectional size is constant. The dimension of the main body portion 23 in the longitudinal direction of the syringe can be, for example, 30 mm to 150 mm. The rear end portion 22 of this embodiment is formed with a finger grip attachment portion 22b for attaching the finger grip 5. The dimension of the rear end portion 22 in the longitudinal direction of the syringe can be, for example, 1 mm to 20 mm.

[0026] The finger grip attachment portion 22b of this embodiment is composed of a pair of flange portions 22c and 22d formed around the entire circumference of the circumferential surface of the syringe 2, and eight recesses 22e formed between the pair of flange portions 22c and 22d. The pair of flange portions 22c and 22d restrict the movement of the finger grip 5 along the longitudinal direction of the syringe 2. In this embodiment, the flange portion 22d is formed larger than the flange portion 22c. In this embodiment, the flange portion 22d is formed at the rear end of the rear end portion 22. Eight protrusions (not shown) provided in a hollow portion (not shown) of the finger grip 5 are fitted into the eight recesses 22e. This fitting restricts the finger grip 5 from rotating in the circumferential direction of the syringe 2.

[0027] Inside the syringe 2, a hollow portion 24 is formed around the central axis C1 over the entire longitudinal direction, for storing a viscous material therein. At the tip 21, the hollow portion 24 is formed in a tapered shape in which the size of the cross section decreases toward the discharge port 21a. Specifically, at the tip 21, the hollow portion 24 is composed of a first tapered portion 24a, a first cylindrical portion 24b, a second tapered portion 24c, and a second cylindrical portion 24d. One end of the first tapered portion 24a is continuous with the main body portion 23, and the size of the cross section is configured to be smaller than the size of the cross section at the main body portion 23 toward the discharge port 21a. One end of the first cylindrical portion 24b is continuous with the first tapered portion 24a, and the size of the cross section is configured to be constant, for example, to have an inner diameter of 0.1 mm to 13 mm. One end of the second tapered portion 24c is continuous with the cylindrical portion 24b, and the size of the cross section is configured to become smaller from the size of the cross section at the cylindrical portion 24b toward the discharge port 21a. One end of the second cylindrical portion 24d is continuous with the second tapered portion 24c, and the other end is in communication with the discharge port 21a, and the size of the cross section is constant, for example, with an inner diameter of 0.1 mm to 10 mm.

[0028] In the main body 23, the hollow section 21 is formed in a cylindrical shape with a constant cross-sectional size, for example, an inner diameter of 0.1 mm to 13 mm. In the rear end 22, the hollow section 21 is formed in a cylindrical shape with a constant cross-sectional size, for example, an inner diameter of 0.1 mm to 15 mm. Particularly in this embodiment, in the rear end 22, the hollow section 21 is formed in a portion continuous with the insertion opening 22a, in which the cross-sectional size slightly increases toward the insertion opening 22a, in order to facilitate the insertion of the push rod 4.

[0029] In the syringe 2 of this embodiment, a syringe tip mounting portion 25 is formed on the outer periphery of the tip portion 21. In this embodiment, the syringe tip mounting portion 25 is provided in an annular shape centered on the central axis C1. In this embodiment, the syringe tip mounting portion 25 is formed integrally with the syringe 2.

[0030] The syringe chip mounting part 25 of this embodiment has the same outer diameter as the main body part 23, and the outer peripheral surface 25a of the syringe chip mounting part 25 is configured to be substantially flush with the outer peripheral surface 23a of the main body part 23. The syringe chip mounting part 25 of this embodiment is provided so that a gap is formed between the inner peripheral surface 25b of the syringe chip mounting part 25 and the outer peripheral surface 21b of the tip part 21. The inner peripheral surface 25b of the syringe chip mounting part 25 of this embodiment is provided with a female thread. The syringe chip mounting part 25 of this embodiment is formed so that the inner peripheral surface 25a becomes slightly larger in diameter as it reaches the tip side in the longitudinal direction. The tip part 21 is extended toward the tip side in the longitudinal direction from the syringe chip mounting part 25.

[0031] The tip portion 21 of the syringe 2 of this embodiment has a shape capable of abutting against a cylindrical portion of the syringe tip 3 in the syringe tip 3 described later. Specifically, an end face 21c on the longitudinal tip side of the tip portion 21 of the syringe 2 of this embodiment is formed to be capable of abutting against an end face on the longitudinal rear end side of the cylindrical portion of the syringe tip 3.

[0032] 5 is a front view of the push bar 4 of this embodiment, FIG. 6 is a plan view of the push bar 4 of this embodiment, and FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of the push bar 4 taken along line III-III in FIG.

[0033] The push rod 4 is a member for pushing the viscous material contained in the syringe 2 toward the tip 21 (i.e., the discharge port 21a) of the syringe 2, and is made of, for example, a resin material. Examples of resin materials that can be used include polyethylene, polyacetal, polypropylene, polyamide, vinyl chloride resin, nylon, phenolic resin, polyurethane, saturated polyester resin, melamine resin, polyvinylidene chloride, unsaturated polyester resin, polybutadiene, polystyrene, EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) resin, styrene resin, polymethylpentene, methacrylic styrene, ABS (acrylonitrile, butadiene, styrene) resin, polycarbonate, and the like. In this embodiment, the push rod 4 is made of low-density polyethylene.

[0034] The push rod 4 of this embodiment has a hollow cylindrical main body 41, a seal portion 42 formed at one end of the main body, and a finger hook portion 43 formed at the other end of the main body.

[0035] The main body 41 has an outer diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the syringe 2. Therefore, when the push rod 4 is housed in the syringe 2, a gap is generated between the main body 41 and the syringe 2.

[0036] The seal portion 42 is disk-shaped, and its outer peripheral end is in slidable and fluid-tight contact with the inner peripheral surface of the syringe 2. Although the seal portion 42 and the main body portion 41 are integrated as one component, the seal portion 42 and the main body portion 41 may be separate components.

[0037] In addition, since the outer peripheral end of the seal portion 42 is in fluid-tight contact with the inner peripheral surface of the syringe 2, the seal portion 42 has an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the syringe 2. The outer diameter of the seal portion 42 is larger than the outer diameter of the main body portion 41.

[0038] The viscous material contained in the syringe can be, for example, a dental material such as a filling composite resin, a sealant material, a cement, a bonding material, a material for fixing loose teeth, an etching material, or a tooth surface polishing material. A specific viscous material includes, for example, a material containing a polymerizable monomer (a) and a polymerization initiator (b). In this case, the viscous material can include, for example, 0.01 to 10 parts by mass of the polymerization initiator (b) relative to 100 parts by weight of the polymerizable monomer (a). In this case, the viscous material can include a filler (c). The viscous material can also not include the filler (c). When the viscous material includes the filler (c), the viscous material can include, for example, the polymerizable monomer (a) and the filler (c) in a ratio of 10:90 to 99.9:0.1, and can include 0.01 to 10 parts by mass of the polymerization initiator (b) relative to 100 parts by weight in total of the polymerizable monomer (a) and the filler (c).

[0039] The ratio of (a) the polymerizable monomer and (c) the filler can be from 10:90 to 60:40. By making the ratio of filler to (a) polymerizable monomer and (c) filler 40 or more, it is possible to avoid the problem of the viscous material having a low viscosity and being unable to obtain sufficient shaping ability, which has the advantage of making it easier to use as a dental material. By setting the ratio of the filler to 90 or less in the ratio of (a) polymerizable monomer and (c) filler, it is possible to prevent the viscosity of the viscous material from becoming too high, which would result in low fluidity, and to avoid the viscous material becoming difficult to push out from the syringe tip. It is also possible to avoid the viscous material becoming difficult to cut off, which would result in the viscous material becoming easily stringy.

[0040] [(a) Polymerizable monomer] The polymerizable monomer (a) contained in the viscous material used in the present invention can be used without any restriction as long as it is a known one. In the polymerizable monomer or compound having a polymerizable group described in the present invention, the polymerizable group is preferably one that exhibits radical polymerizability, and specifically, from the viewpoint of ease of radical polymerization, the polymerizable group is preferably a (meth)acrylic group and / or a (meth)acrylamide group.

Examples of such polymerizable monomers include those having one radical polymerizable group, those having two radical polymerizable groups, those having three or more radical polymerizable groups, those having an acidic group, an alkoxysilyl group, and those having a sulfur atom.

(a1) By containing a polymerizable monomer having an acidic group, when the viscous material is a dental material, it is possible to impart adhesion to tooth structure and prosthetic devices. Furthermore, when a basic filler is contained in the viscous material, it is expected that the stability of the hardened body of the viscous material is improved.

Moreover, these polymerization initiators can be used alone or in combination with a plurality of them, regardless of the polymerization mode or polymerization method. Furthermore, these polymerization initiators can be used without any problems even if they are subjected to secondary treatment such as encapsulation in microcapsules to realize polymerization stabilization or polymerization delay. Among these polymerization initiators, it is preferable to use a thermal polymerization initiator.

Specific examples of chemical polymerization initiators are shown below, but are not limited to these.

[0111] The polymerization accelerator is preferably contained in an amount of 0.2 to 10 parts by mass, more preferably 0.5 to 5 parts by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the polymerizable monomer (a) contained in the viscous material. If it is less than 0.2 parts by mass, the mechanical strength may be insufficient. If it is blended in an amount of more than 10 parts by mass, although sufficient curability is obtained, the ambient light stability may be shortened, and discoloration of the cured body, such as brownish or yellowish, may increase, which is not preferable.

[0112] These photosensitizers, photoacid generators, organic peroxides, and polymerization accelerators may be subjected to secondary treatments such as fine pulverization, carrier adsorption, and encapsulation in microcapsules, if necessary, without any problems. Furthermore, these various types of photopolymerization initiators may be used alone or in combination of two or more types, regardless of the polymerization mode or polymerization method.

[0113] [(c) Filler] The filler may be, for example, a known filler generally used in dental materials. Examples of the filler include inorganic fillers, organic fillers, and organic-inorganic composite fillers, and these may be used alone or in combination regardless of the type of filler.

[0114] Specific examples of inorganic fillers include silica, aluminum silicate, alumina, titania, zirconia, various glasses (including fluorine glass, borosilicate glass, soda glass, barium glass, barium aluminum silica glass, glass containing strontium or zirconium, glass ceramics, fluoroaluminosilicate glass, and synthetic glass by the sol-gel method), Aerosil (registered trademark), calcium fluoride, strontium fluoride, calcium carbonate, kaolin, clay, mica, aluminum sulfate, calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, titanium oxide, calcium phosphate, hydroxyapatite, calcium hydroxide, strontium hydroxide, zeolite, etc. These inorganic fillers may be used as aggregates, and examples thereof include silica-zirconia composite oxide aggregates obtained by mixing silica sol and zirconia sol, spray drying and heat treatment.

[0115] Examples of organic fillers include elastomers such as polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl alcohol, and styrene-butadiene rubber; non-crosslinkable (meth)acrylate polymers which are homopolymers of monofunctional (meth)acrylate polymerizable monomers such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyethyl methacrylate, polypropyl methacrylate, and polybutyl methacrylate; crosslinkable (meth)acrylate polymers obtained by copolymerizing a monofunctional (meth)acrylate polymerizable monomer with a polymerizable monomer having two or more functional groups; polyvinyl acetate, polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol, and polyvinyl alcohol, but are not limited to these.

[0116] Examples of organic / inorganic composite fillers include, but are not limited to, fillers whose surfaces are polymerized and coated with a polymerizable monomer, fillers obtained by mixing and polymerizing a filler and a polymerizable monomer and then pulverizing the mixture to a suitable particle size, and fillers obtained by dispersing a filler in a polymerizable monomer in advance and subjecting the resulting mixture to emulsion polymerization or suspension polymerization.

[0117] These fillers can be any shape, such as spherical, needle-like, plate-like, crushed, or scaly. The average particle size of the filler varies depending on the type of filler. In the case of inorganic fillers, fillers having a particle size in the range of 0.05 to 200 μm can be used, preferably in the range of 0.5 to 100 μm, and more preferably in the range of 1 to 20 μm. In the case of organic-inorganic composite fillers, fillers having a particle size in the range of 0.05 to 150 μm can be used, preferably in the range of 0.5 to 100 μm, and more preferably in the range of 1 to 20 μm. In the case of organic fillers, there is no particular restriction on the average particle size, and fillers having an average particle size in any range can be used. The information on the average particle size can be obtained by a laser diffraction particle size measuring device. When the filler is an aggregate, the average particle size is the average particle size of the aggregate. In addition, the average particle size of the filler is preferably 0.5 to 100 μm, and more preferably in the range of 1 to 20 μm. The average particle size, the coefficient of variation of the particle size, and other information can be obtained by a laser diffraction particle size analyzer. If the filler is an aggregate, the above average particle size is the average particle size of the aggregate. If the average particle size is less than 0.5 μm, the viscous material may become sticky and air bubbles may easily be mixed in. If it exceeds 100 μm, the filler may easily settle in the viscous material and may not be uniformly dispersed.

[0118] Furthermore, the surface of the filler may be multifunctionalized by a surface treatment method using a surface treatment agent, etc., and these surface-treated fillers can be used without any restrictions. Specific examples of surface treatment agents used to multifunctionalize the surface of the filler include surfactants, fatty acids, organic acids, inorganic acids, various coupling agents (titanate coupling agents, aluminate coupling agents, and silane coupling agents), metal alkoxide compounds, etc. Specific examples of surface treatment methods include a method of spraying a surface treatment agent from above while the filler is in a flowing state, a method of dispersing the filler in a solution containing a surface treatment agent, and a method of multi-layer treatment of the filler surface with several types of surface treatment agents. However, the surface treatment agents and surface treatment methods are not limited to these. In addition, these surface treatment agents and surface treatment methods can be used alone or in a complex combination.

[0119] These fillers may be surface-treated with a known titanate coupling agent, aluminate coupling agent, or silane coupling agent without any problem. Examples of silane coupling agents include γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane and γ-methacryloxypropyltriethoxysilane. γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane is preferably used. The surface treatment of the aggregates and fillers may be performed with the same type of coupling agent or with a different type of coupling agent.

[0120] When the flow value (mm) of the viscous material is D, D can be made to satisfy the following relational expression (6). Flow value D ≥ 20 (6)

[0121] By satisfying this relationship, the force exerted when discharging the viscous material can be reduced, the viscous material can be easily released from the syringe tip, and voids caused by the viscous material flowing into the unevenness of the cavity can be prevented from being created. In addition, air bubbles are less likely to be mixed into the viscous material.

[0122] In this specification, the flow value is an index showing the degree of pressure flow, and can be measured by the following steps 1 to 4.

[0123] Step 1: A cellophane sheet (disc-shaped) is inserted into a cylindrical glass tube (inner diameter 7.5 mm).

[0124] Step 2: The sample-filled section (volume 309 mm) at the top of the cylindrical glass tube (inner diameter 7.5 mm) 3 ) is filled with the sample while being careful not to trap air bubbles, and the top surface of the filled sample is made flat using a plastic spatula so that it fits snugly against the cylindrical glass tube.

[0125] Step 3: After removing the cylindrical glass tube, insert a glass rod from the opposite side to the filled section and gently push the sample onto a 50 x 50 x 1 mm glass plate.

[0126] Step 4: Transfer this glass plate to a loader, place a glass plate of the same size on the sample, and at the same time gently add the weight (385gf) of the loader and leave for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, remove the weight and use graph paper to select any point on the sample spread between the glass plates and determine the tangent. Determine a tangent parallel to that tangent and measure the dimension between the parallel tangents (see Figure 12). Measure the dimension between parallel tangents perpendicular to that parallel tangent. These two points are designated as Amm and Bmm, and the pressure flow rate (flow value) is calculated using the following formula. Pressure flow rate (mm)=(A+B) / 2 Note that the value is valid only when |AB|≦1 mm, and if |AB|>1 mm, the measurement is to be repeated. This procedure was carried out twice for each sample, and the average value was taken as the flow value.

[0128] The syringe tip 3 is attached to the tip of the syringe 2 containing a viscous material and discharges the viscous material. The syringe tip 3 has a syringe engaging portion 31 that engages with the syringe 2, a cylindrical portion 32 that has a hollow portion 32a centered on the imaginary center line IC and is held by the user when engaging the syringe tip 3 with the syringe 2, and a nozzle portion 33 that discharges the viscous material contained in the syringe 2.

[0129] In this specification, the virtual center line of the hollow portion means a line connecting the maximum Feret diameter in the cross section of the hollow portion perpendicular to the nozzle direction from the engagement portion, the maximum Feret diameter being taken as the diameter, the center of a virtual circle tangent to the contour of the cross section of the hollow portion being taken as the virtual center, and the virtual center being taken from the portion adjacent to the engagement portion to the portion adjacent to the nozzle.

[0130] The syringe engagement portion 31 of this embodiment is a cylindrical member centered on the central axis C2, and has a syringe insertion portion 31a into which the tip of the syringe 2 is inserted. The outer diameter of the syringe engagement portion 31 can be, for example, 0.1 mm to 13 mm, and the dimension in the longitudinal direction of the syringe tip 3 can be, for example, 7 mm to 50 mm. In this embodiment, the syringe insertion portion 31a is provided in an annular shape centered on the central axis C2, and can have an inner diameter of, for example, 0.1 mm to 12 mm. One end of the syringe insertion portion 31a constitutes an insertion port 31b into which the syringe 2 is inserted. The other end of the syringe insertion portion 31a is continuous with the hollow portion 32a of the cylindrical portion 32.

[0131] In particular, syringe insertion portion 31a in this embodiment is formed in a tapered shape in which the size of the cross section decreases toward cylindrical portion 32. In syringe insertion portion 31a in this embodiment, in order to facilitate the insertion of syringe 2, a tapered portion 31c is formed in a portion continuous with insertion port 31b, in which the size of the cross section increases slightly toward insertion port 31b.

[0132] In this embodiment, an engagement piece 31d that screws into the female thread of the syringe tip mounting part 25 is provided at the end of the outer periphery of the syringe engagement part 31 on the side of the insertion port 31b and protrudes radially outward. In this embodiment, a pair (two) of engagement pieces 31d are provided facing each other in the diameter direction, and each engagement piece 31d is configured as a flat protruding piece in the circumferential direction. It is also possible to provide three or more engagement pieces 31d, and it is also possible to provide multiple engagement pieces 31d at different positions along the central axis C2. Each engagement piece 31d may be formed to be slightly inclined in a spiral shape.

[0133] The syringe engagement portion 31 can be formed of, for example, a resin material. Examples of the resin material that can be used include polyethylene, polyacetal, polypropylene, polyamide, vinyl chloride resin, nylon, phenol resin, polyurethane, saturated polyester resin, melamine resin, polyvinylidene chloride, unsaturated polyester resin, polybutadiene, polystyrene, EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) resin, styrene resin, polymethylpentene, methacrylic styrene, ABS (acrylonitrile, butadiene, styrene) resin, and polycarbonate. In this embodiment, the syringe engagement portion 31 is made of polypropylene. The material of the syringe engagement portion 31 may be the same as or different from the material of the syringe 2.

[0134] The tubular portion 32 of this embodiment is a cylindrical member centered on the imaginary center line IC, and has a hollow portion 32a centered on the imaginary center line IC. Specifically, the tubular portion 32 of this embodiment has a cylindrical main body portion 32b with the hollow portion 32a formed therein. The outer diameter of the tubular portion 32 can be, for example, 0.1 mm to 13 mm, and the dimension in the longitudinal direction of the syringe tip 3 can be, for example, 0.5 mm to 5 mm. One end of the hollow portion 32a of this embodiment is connected to the syringe insertion portion 31a of the syringe engagement portion 31, and can have an inner diameter of, for example, 0.1 mm to 12 mm. The other end of the hollow portion 32a of this embodiment is continuous with a flow path of the viscous material formed inside the nozzle portion 33. The main body portion 32b of this embodiment is formed so that the size of the cross section is constant. Moreover, the hollow portion 32a of this embodiment is formed so that the size of the cross section is constant.

[0135] The cylindrical portion 32 can be formed of, for example, a resin material. Examples of the resin material that can be used include polyethylene, polyacetal, polypropylene, polyamide, vinyl chloride resin, nylon, phenol resin, polyurethane, saturated polyester resin, melamine resin, polyvinylidene chloride, unsaturated polyester resin, polybutadiene, polystyrene, EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) resin, styrene resin, polymethylpentene, methacrylic styrene, ABS (acrylonitrile, butadiene, styrene) resin, and polycarbonate. In this embodiment, the syringe engagement portion 31 is made of polypropylene. The material of the cylindrical portion 32 may be the same as or different from the material of the syringe 2 and the syringe engagement portion 31.

[0136] In this embodiment, an imaginary center line IC located at the center of the hollow portion 32a is coaxial with the central axis C1 of the syringe 2 and the central axis C2 of the syringe insertion portion 31a.

[0137] The cylindrical portion 32 of this embodiment has a connection portion 32c that connects the main body portion 32b and the syringe engagement portion 31. The connection portion 32c of this embodiment is configured to have a truncated cone shape.

[0138] In the present embodiment, a connecting hollow portion 32d is formed inside the connecting portion 32c, which connects the hollow portion 32a and the syringe insertion portion 31a of the syringe engagement portion 31. The connecting hollow portion 32d in the present embodiment is configured such that the radial dimension (hereinafter also simply referred to as the radial dimension) centered on the imaginary center line IC is larger than the radial dimension of the hollow portion 32a and smaller than the radial dimension of the syringe insertion portion 31a. The connecting hollow portion 32d in the present embodiment has, at the end on the hollow portion 32a side, an annular abutment surface 32e against which the end surface 21c on the longitudinal tip side of the tip portion 21 of the syringe 2 abuts.

[0139] The cylindrical portion 32 of this embodiment is provided with a pair of wing portions 34 on the outer wall of the main body portion 32b. The radial dimension of the wing portions 34 can be, for example, 8 mm to 12 mm, and the dimension in the longitudinal direction of the syringe tip 3 can be, for example, 0.5 mm to 5 mm. The pair of wing portions 34 of this embodiment are provided facing each other in the radial direction centered on the imaginary center line IC. The pair of wing portions 34 of this embodiment are formed from the end on the syringe engaging portion 31 side. In other words, the pair of wing portions 34 of this embodiment are formed across the main body portion 32b and the connecting portion 32c. In particular, the pair of wing portions 34 of this embodiment are formed so that the radial outer ends of the pair of wing portions 34 and the radial outer end of the syringe engaging portion 31 are flush with each other. The pair of wing portions 34 of this embodiment are also configured to have a reduced diameter portion 34a on the nozzle portion 33 side, the radial dimension of which decreases toward the nozzle portion 33.

[0140] In the syringe chip of this embodiment, when the maximum length (mm) between both ends of the tubular portion on a virtual line perpendicular to the virtual center line is defined as a first length A (see FIG. 9), the first virtual line is defined as a virtual line that is perpendicular to the virtual center line and includes both ends of the tubular portion that constitute the first length A, and the second length B (see FIG. 8) is defined as the length (mm) between both ends of the tubular portion on a second virtual line that is perpendicular to the virtual center line and perpendicular to the first virtual line, the first length A and the second length B satisfy the following relationship formulas (1) to (3). First length A / second length B ≥ 1.5 (1) 13 ≧ first length A + second length B ≧ 5 (2) 5 ≧ second length B (3)

[0141] In formula (1), if the ratio of first length A to second length B is less than 1.5, there is a problem that a sufficient wing portion cannot be secured to apply force when tightening, or the surgical field is obstructed. The ratio of first length A to second length B can be set to 12 or less. By setting the ratio of first length A to second length B to 12 or less, there is an effect that the operability is good when performing filling work in the oral cavity, and the rigidity can be ensured when installing, so that tightening can be performed reliably.

[0142] In formula (2), if the first length A+the second length B is less than 5, the strength of the tubular part is insufficient and it is difficult to grip, resulting in insufficient fastening. Also, in formula (2), if the first length A+the second length B is more than 13, the tubular part becomes too large, resulting in problems of obstructing the surgical field and reducing operability when performing filling work in the oral cavity.

[0143] In formula (3), if the second length B is greater than 5, the cylindrical portion becomes too large, causing problems such as obstructing the surgical field and reducing operability when performing a filling operation in the oral cavity. The second length B can be set to 0.5 or more. By setting the second length B to 0.5 or more, the rigidity of the cylindrical portion can be ensured, and there is an effect that the fastening can be performed reliably without deformation during installation.

[0144] In the above embodiment, the tubular portion 32 has a main body portion 32b in which a hollow portion 32a is formed, and a pair of blade portions 34 provided on the outer wall portion of the main body portion 32b. In such a case, the first length A can be the length between the tips of the pair of blade portions, and the second length B can be the length between the outer walls of the main body portion 32b. In the above embodiment, the length between the tips of the pair of blade portions, which is the first length A, is 5.6 mm, and the length between the outer walls of the main body portion 32b, which is the second length B, is 2.3 mm.

[0145] The first length A may satisfy the following relational expression (4). First length A≦8 (4)

[0146] In formula (4), when the first length A is 8 or less, an effect of improving visibility is achieved. Moreover, the first length A can be 5 or less. When the first length A is 5 or less, an effect of further improving visibility is achieved.

[0147] The nozzle portion 33 discharges the viscous material contained in the syringe 2. Specifically, the nozzle portion 33 of this embodiment has a flow path 33a for the viscous material formed therein, and one end of the flow path 33a forms an outlet 33b. The dimension of the nozzle portion 33 in the longitudinal direction of the syringe tip 3 can be, for example, 1 mm to 40 mm. The dimension of the nozzle portion 33 in the direction in which the flow path 33a extends can be 5 mm or more, and can be 8 mm or more. By setting the dimension of the nozzle portion in the direction in which the flow path 33a extends to such a length, it is possible to easily fill the viscous material, for example, into the molar at the back of the oral cavity.

[0148] In the present invention, when the inner diameter (mm) of the nozzle portion 33 on the discharge port 33b side is taken as C, the following relational expression (5) can be further satisfied. 1.50 ≧ inner diameter C ≧ 0.12 (5)

[0149] In formula (5), if the inner diameter C is less than 0.12, it may be difficult to discharge the paste. Also, in formula (5), if the inner diameter C is more than 1.5, it may be difficult to fill the paste because the amount of paste discharged may be greater than the intended amount.

[0150] In this specification, the inner diameter of the nozzle part on the discharge port side means the minimum diameter of the nozzle tip part.

[0151] Furthermore, in the present invention, when the inner diameter (mm) of the nozzle portion 33 on the outlet 33b side is C and the flow value (mm) of the viscous material contained in the syringe 2 is D, the following relational expressions (7) to (8) can be further satisfied. 70 ≧ Flow value D (7) 105 ≧ inner diameter C × flow value D ≧ 2.4 (8)

[0152] In formula (7), if the flow value D exceeds 70, the flow value is too high, which may cause dripping and make it difficult to discharge the intended amount. In formula (8), if the inner diameter C x flow value D is less than 2.4, it may cause a problem that it is difficult to discharge the paste from the discharge port. Also, in formula (8), if the inner diameter C x flow value D is greater than 105, it may cause a problem that the paste is discharged from the discharge port without the surgeon pressing the plunger, resulting in the discharge of paste unintended by the surgeon.

[0153] The nozzle portion 33 of this embodiment is formed so that the size of the cross section decreases toward the discharge port 33b. Moreover, the flow path 33a of this embodiment is formed so that the size of the cross section decreases toward the discharge port 33b.

[0154] The nozzle portion 33 is made of, for example, a resin material or a metal material. Examples of resin materials that can be used include polyethylene, polyacetal, polypropylene, polyamide, vinyl chloride resin, nylon, phenolic resin, polyurethane, saturated polyester resin, melamine resin, polyvinylidene chloride, unsaturated polyester resin, polybutadiene, polystyrene, EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) resin, styrene resin, polymethylpentene, methacrylic styrene, ABS (acrylonitrile, butadiene, styrene) resin, polycarbonate, and the like. In this embodiment, the nozzle portion 33 is made of polypropylene.

[0155] In the syringe tip of this embodiment, the nozzle portion, the cylindrical portion, and the syringe engaging portion are integrally formed.

[0156] In this embodiment, when the outer diameter (mm) of the main body 32b of the cylindrical portion 32 is D32b and the outer diameter (mm) of the syringe 2 is D2, the outer diameter D32b and the outer diameter D2 can be made to satisfy the following relational expression (9) and can be made to satisfy the following relational expression (10). Outer diameter D2×0.5≧Outer diameter D32b (9) Outer diameter D2×0.3≧Outer diameter D32b (10)

[0157] By satisfying such a relational expression, it is possible to obtain the effects of a wide surgical field and excellent operability within the oral cavity.

[0158] In this embodiment, when the inner diameter (mm) of the nozzle portion on the outlet side is C and the outer diameter (mm) of the main body portion 32b of the tubular portion 32 is D32b, the inner diameter C and the outer diameter D32b can satisfy the following relational expression (11). Outer diameter D32b≧Inner diameter C...(11)

[0159] By satisfying such a relational expression, it is possible to obtain the effects of a wide surgical field and excellent operability within the oral cavity.

[0160] In this embodiment, when viewed in the longitudinal direction of the syringe tip, the angle between the plane on which the pair of wing portions extend and the plane on which the nozzle portion extends can be set to 45° or less.

[0161] By setting the angle range in this way, it is possible to obtain the effects of a wide surgical field and excellent operability within the oral cavity.

[0162] In this embodiment, the first length A and the outer diameter D2 of the syringe 2 can satisfy the following relational expression (12). Outer diameter D2 × 0.9 ≧ first length A (12)

[0163] By satisfying such a relational expression, the surgical field can be made wider, and the operability within the oral cavity can be improved.

[0164] In the above embodiment, the tip of the syringe is configured to be able to abut against the syringe tip inside the syringe tip, which makes it possible to prevent air bubbles from being mixed in when the viscous material moves from the syringe to the syringe tip, and also makes it possible to reduce the amount of viscous material remaining in the syringe tip, thereby making it possible to prevent the viscous material from dripping from the syringe when replacing the syringe tip.

[0165] In the syringe tip of the above embodiment, the nozzle portion, the cylindrical portion, and the syringe engagement portion are integrally molded from a resin material. Therefore, the nozzle press-fitting operation is not required during manufacturing, making manufacturing easier. In addition, since the nozzle portion, the cylindrical portion, and the syringe engagement portion are made of only a resin material, separation of metals is not required when disposing of the syringe tip, making disposal easier.

[0166] In the above embodiment, a dental material is used as the viscous material, but the viscous material may be a medicine, a medical material, a cosmetic, a food, or the like.

[0167] In the above embodiment, the cylindrical portion has a main body portion having a hollow portion and a pair of wing portions provided on the outer wall portion of the main body portion, but the syringe tip of the present invention does not have to have wing portions. Also, in the above embodiment, the syringe tip of the present invention has two wing portions, but the number of wing portions is not limited to two, and may be one, or three or more.

[0168] Although in the above embodiment the syringe tip has a symmetrical shape, the syringe tip may have an asymmetrical shape.

[0169] Although the syringe tip of the above embodiment is configured such that the extension direction of the nozzle portion is bent from the extension direction of the cylindrical portion, the nozzle portion and the cylindrical portion can be configured to be linear.

[0170] In the syringe tip of the above embodiment, the flow channel of the nozzle portion is formed linearly, but the flow channel of the nozzle portion can be formed in a curved shape.

[0171] In the syringe tip of the above embodiment, the nozzle portion, the cylindrical portion, and the syringe engaging portion are integrally molded, but the nozzle portion, the cylindrical portion, and the syringe engaging portion can be molded individually as separate members.

[0172] In the syringe tip of the above embodiment, the nozzle portion is made of a resin material, but the nozzle portion can be made of a metal material.

[0173] In the syringe tip of the above embodiment, nozzle portion 33 is formed so that the size of the cross section decreases toward discharge port 33b, but the size of the cross section of nozzle portion 33 can be constant.

[0174] In the syringe tip of the above embodiment, flow channel 33a is formed so that the size of the cross section decreases toward discharge port 33b, but the size of the cross section of flow channel 33a can be constant.

[0175] In the above embodiment, the syringe tip and the syringe are screwed together using an internal thread. However, the syringe tip and the syringe can also be screwed together using a so-called external thread. EXAMPLES

[0176] Examples of the present invention will be specifically described below, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.

[0177] <Preparation of Syringe Tip> A number of syringe tips having a first length A and a second length B shown in Table 1 were produced by injection molding using polypropylene (PP).

[0186] [Measurement of nozzle inner diameter] The inner diameter of the nozzle was measured for the syringe tips of Examples 1 to 14. The measurement was performed using a pin gauge.

[0187] [Flow value measurement] The flow values ​​were measured for the prepared viscous materials A to G. The flow values ​​were measured by the following steps 1 to 4.

[0188] Step 1: A cellophane sheet (disc-shaped) is inserted into a cylindrical glass tube (inner diameter 7.5 mm).

[0189] Step 2: Fill the sample into the sample filling section (volume 309 mm3) at the top of the cylindrical glass tube (inner diameter 7.5 mm) without trapping any air bubbles, and use a plastic spatula to flatten the top surface of the filled sample to fit the cylindrical glass tube.

[0190] Step 3: After removing the cylindrical glass tube, a glass rod is inserted from the side opposite the filled section, and the viscous material is gently extruded onto a 50 x 50 x 1 mm glass plate.

[0191] Step 4: Transfer this glass plate to a loader, place a glass plate of the same size on the sample, and at the same time gently add the weight (385gf) of the loader and leave for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, remove the weight and use graph paper to select any point on the sample spread between the glass plates and determine the tangent. Determine a tangent parallel to that tangent and measure the dimension between the parallel tangents (see Figure 12). Measure the dimension between parallel tangents perpendicular to that parallel tangent. These two points are designated as Amm and Bmm, and the pressure flow rate (flow value) is calculated using the following formula. Pressure flow rate (mm)=(A+B) / 2 Note that the value is valid only when |AB|≦1 mm, and if |AB|>1 mm, the measurement is to be repeated. This procedure was carried out twice for each sample, and the average value was taken as the flow value.

[0192] (3) Extrusion sensation 3-1. Test method The syringe used in the Beautyfill Flow Plus XF00A3 was filled with viscous materials A to G.

A syringe tip was attached to the syringe filled with each viscous material, and the viscous material was filled into a model with a first-class cavity. At that time, a sensory evaluation was performed to see whether the desired amount of viscous material could be discharged. Evaluation criteria AA:Very good A:Good B: Bad C: Very bad The evaluation results for each example are shown in Table 2.
