The temporomandibular joint dysfunction syndrome is one of clinical common diseases, is classified as the fourth oral epidemic disease affecting human health by WHO, is a syndrome of a series of symptoms such as temporomandibular joint area pain, reverberation, muscular soreness, hypodynamia, mouth opening limitation, temporomandibular joint dysfunction and the like, and has repeated attack, lingering and prolonged treatment in some cases, thereby seriously affecting masticatory muscles and language functions. From the perspective of modern medicine, the cause of the disease is complex and is not clear yet. It is thought to be related to emotional instability, physical weakness, disturbance of occlusion relationship of teeth, and trauma. These factors affect the normal structure of the mandibular joint or hinder the coordinated movement of muscles and ligaments attached around the joint structure.
The existing conventional treatment modes are as follows: optical, electrical, needle, injection, physical therapy, etc., such as: the treatment modes of the super-laser therapeutic apparatus, the temporomandibular arthroscope, the acupuncture combined ultrashort wave treatment, the super-laser irradiation combined temporomandibular joint local injection treatment, the blood pricking and warming needle treatment and the like respectively have advantages and disadvantages, and are suitable for different crowds.
The existing physical therapy mode mainly depends on temporal joint traction devices and manual pressing of therapists, and is convenient and safe, wide in application range, low in medical cost, high in cure rate and high in patient acceptance.
In addition, the existing temporal joint traction device has the following problems:
firstly, the traditional temporomandibular passive training instrument needs a person to manually adjust the opening angle, and after the angle is adjusted, the instrument is limited by the hand or a mechanical device and used for fixing the position, so that the instrument is not intelligent enough.
Second, during the use of the traditional temporomandibular passive training apparatus, the degree of opening is usually measured in scales, and there is no accurate opening distance value.
Third, in the use process of the traditional temporomandibular passive training instrument, there is no accurate occlusal force feedback, and only medical staff can communicate with the patient, so that the size of the occlusal force can be judged in a fuzzy way.
Fourthly, during the treatment period, the medical staff judges the recovery condition of the patient in a fuzzy state, can judge the treatment effect only by the dictation of the patient and the opening degree after the treatment, and does not have a digital, scientific and sustainable treatment scheme and judgment standards after the treatment. This results in no systematic treatment regimen, no timely digital feedback system and no scientific therapeutic outcome assessment system.
Fifth, the traditional approach relies heavily on the personal experience of the doctor and the communication between the medical staff and the patient. In the past, the development and progress of the industry are not facilitated.

Thus, features defined as "first", "second", "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or at least two of the features.
As shown in fig. 1, the present embodiment provides a temporomandibular joint training device including a device body 1, a detection unit 2, an operation unit 3, and a control unit 4; wherein the content of the first and second substances,

Here, for convenience of description, the detection result of the magnetic encoder 21 is described as the opening angle/opening distance, but it should be understood that the "opening angle/opening distance" is used in the meaning of "opening angle or opening distance" in the present embodiment.
In this embodiment, the control unit 4 controls the movement of the mouthpiece 11 according to the received constant-biting-force training mode command and the current biting force value applied to the mouthpiece 11, and specifically, controls the movement of the mouthpiece 11 until the received biting force is consistent with the force value set in the constant-biting-force training mode, so as to complete the constant-biting-force training.

In the step S1, the order of the determination of whether the mechanical limit, the encoder limit, and the force maximum are reached is not distinguished, and may be performed simultaneously or sequentially.
In this embodiment, the temporomandibular joint training device can be fully automated, but does not exclude some links to be adjusted manually, and during manual adjustment, the maximum opening angle of the mouthpiece 11 is the maximum value for determining whether the mouthpiece 11 reaches the maximum value, and the maximum opening torque of the mouthpiece 11 is the maximum value for determining whether the opening torque of the mouthpiece 11 reaches the maximum value.
In view of this, in step S1, the method for determining whether the encoder limit is reached according to the detection information of the magnetic encoder 21 includes the following two methods:
(11) Judging whether the mouthpiece 11 reaches the maximum opening angle or not, if so, judging that the mouthpiece reaches the limit of an encoder;
(12) And judging whether the opening angle/opening distance of the mouthpiece 11 reaches the opening angle/opening distance value correspondingly set in the constant position training mode, if so, judging that the position is limited by an encoder.
Similarly, the method for determining whether the maximum force is reached according to the detection information of the force sensor 22 includes the following two methods:
(21) Judging whether the mouthpiece 11 reaches the maximum opening moment or not, and if so, judging that the maximum reaching force is the maximum;
(22) And judging whether the occlusal force borne by the mouthpiece 11 reaches the force value set by the constant occlusal force training mode, if so, judging that the maximum value of the force is reached.
While training the temporomandibular joint, before which, as shown in fig. 3, the electronic device further performs the steps of: s0, initializing the mouthpiece 11 to obtain an opening angle value/opening distance value detected by the magnetic encoder 21 when the mouthpiece 11 is in the closed state, so as to confirm a target position of the mouthpiece 11 in the constant position training mode. In this embodiment, when the mouthpiece 11 adopts the constant position training mode, the maximum opening angle/the maximum opening distance of the mouthpiece 11 can be set, and the size of the angle/the distance is measured by using the zero point determined by the magnetic encoder 21 as the starting point. Therefore, by the initialization step, the zero point of the magnetic encoder 21 is found, so that the opening angle/opening distance of the mouthpiece 11 can be accurately quantified during the constant position training mode. The mouthpiece 11 may be initialized such that it is powered up again after the first device power up occurs, and need not be done again.
As mentioned before, for the temporomandibular joint training device, the transmission structure 13 may employ drive wheels, drive belts or the like. In view of this, the electronic device in this embodiment initializes the mouthpiece 11 to obtain the opening angle value/opening distance value of the magnetic encoder when the mouthpiece 11 is in the closed state, which includes the following two types:
(31) Controlling the mouthpiece 11 to perform a closing action, and determining whether the value of the force sensor 22 is zero, if not, controlling the mouthpiece 11 to continue the closing action, and if zero, controlling the mouthpiece 11 to stop moving, and recording an opening angle value/opening distance value detected by the magnetic encoder 21 when the value of the force sensor 22 is zero;
(32) Controlling the mouthpiece 11 to perform a closing action, and determining whether the value of the force sensor 22 is zero, if not, controlling the mouthpiece 11 to continue the closing action, and if zero, controlling the mouthpiece 11 to stop moving; and controlling the mouthpiece 11 to perform an opening action, determining whether the opening angle/opening distance detected by the magnetic encoder 21 is increased, if not, controlling the mouthpiece 11 to continue the opening action, and if so, controlling the mouthpiece 11 to stop moving and correspondingly recording the opening angle value/opening distance value detected by the magnetic encoder 21.
The method (31) is applied to a temporomandibular joint training device in which the transmission structure 13 uses a non-elastic member. In temporomandibular joint training device using elastic members (e.g. springs) for the transmission structure 13, there is a lost motion from the detection of no tension in the springs to the mechanical limit, i.e. the motor can continue to operate until the mechanical limit is reached, although the value detected by the force sensor 22 is zero. Thus, when a force of zero is first detected, it may have already been run into a lost motion phase. Therefore, in the method (32), in the temporomandibular joint training device using elastic members for the transmission structure 13, after detecting that the value of the force sensor 22 is zero, the backlash can be eliminated by operating the motor in reverse (i.e., controlling the further opening motion of the mouthpiece 11).
In the methods (31) and (32), the control of the mouth piece 11 to perform the closing action and the opening action is realized by controlling the forward rotation and the reverse rotation of the motor, for example, the control of the forward rotation of the motor may be configured to correspond to the control of the mouth piece 11 to perform the closing action, and the control of the reverse rotation of the motor may be configured to correspond to the control of the mouth piece 11 to perform the opening action. For some temporomandibular joint training devices, there may be situations where the mapping relationship between the motor rotation direction and the movement direction of the mouthpiece 11 cannot be known when the control unit 4 sends a control command. Therefore, when the initialization is performed, if the angle measured by the magnetic encoder 21 or the value of the force sensor 22 increases when the motor is controlled to rotate in the forward direction, it indicates that the mouthpiece 11 is performing the opening operation, and therefore the motor is controlled to rotate in the reverse direction, so that the mouthpiece 11 can perform the closing operation until it is completely closed, thereby completing the initialization.
The implementation of the constant bite force mode is described below.
Firstly, the operating unit 3 sets an occlusal force with a fixed value, a constant occlusal force training mode command is issued after the setting is finished, when the information acquisition module 41 receives the command, the information processing and control module 42 judges whether the mechanical limit, the encoder limit and the force maximum value are reached, if not, the control module 43 is issued with a control command, and after the execution module 43 receives the control command, the motor is controlled to operate, so that the mouthpiece 11 moves.
Secondly, whether the value of the force sensor 22 reaches a set value is judged, if the occlusal force does not reach the set value, whether the limit is reached is judged, if the limit is reached, the occlusal force of the patient is insufficient, namely the mouth closing function of the patient is weak, and at the moment, the opening angle/opening distance of the mouthpiece 11 reaches the limit and cannot be opened too much continuously, so that the zero point is returned to the execution state, the occlusal force value is reset, and medical personnel need to reduce the size of the occlusal force appropriately according to the situation. If the position is not limited and the patient does not have obvious discomfort, the setting of the occlusal force is reasonable, the device is suitable for treating the patient, the device continues to operate until the set occlusal force value is reached, the motor stop command is executed, the treatment is started, and at the moment, real-time data information is uploaded to a cloud service end and comprises the set value, the size of the occlusal force and the change data of the opening angle/opening distance along with the time. And after the treatment duration is met, stopping treatment, executing the zero returning, and completing one-time constant occlusal force rehabilitation training.
The implementation of the constant position training mode is described below.
Firstly, an opening angle/opening distance with a fixed numerical value is set through the operation unit 3, a constant position training mode instruction is issued after the setting is finished, when the information acquisition module 41 receives the instruction, the information processing and control module 42 judges whether the mechanical limit, the encoder limit and the force maximum value are reached, if not, a control instruction is issued to the execution module 43 to control the motor to operate, and then the mouthpiece 11 moves.
Secondly, whether the numerical value of the magnetic encoder 21 reaches a set value or not is judged, if the numerical value of the magnetic encoder 21 does not reach the set value, whether the maximum occlusal force is exceeded or not is judged, if the maximum occlusal force is exceeded, a zero point is executed out of a safety angle, and the opening angle/opening distance numerical value is reset. If the occlusal force is not exceeded, the device continues to operate until the set position value is reached, the motor stop command is executed, the treatment is started, and at the moment, real-time data information including the set opening angle/opening distance and the change data of the occlusal force along with time is uploaded. And after the treatment duration is met, stopping treatment, executing the zero returning, and completing one-time constant position rehabilitation training.
In summary, compared with the prior art, the temporomandibular joint training device and the electronic device provided by the invention have the following advantages:
(1) The constant occlusal force mode is set as a new training mode, treatment scheme selection of medical personnel is enriched, and the constant occlusal force mode can be set to be suitable for occlusal force to perform rehabilitation training according to the condition of a patient.
(2) Set up the constant position mode, as new training mode, richened medical personnel's treatment scheme and selected, can set up to be fit for opening the angle and carry out the rehabilitation training according to the patient condition.
(3) The automatic zero position searching function is powered on for the first time, the system is designed by adopting a low-cost scheme, namely a scheme of the magnetic encoder 21, the traditional scheme that the photoelectric encoder is required to record absolute position information is replaced, the production cost is saved, and because the installation position of the magnetic encoder of each device is possibly different, the zero position of the automatic power-on detection device can be powered on by applying the scheme, and the maintenance cost of the device is reduced.
(4) The device of the invention is convenient for medical care personnel to provide an effective, feasible and safe rehabilitation scheme for the patient with restricted mouth opening by uploading the training data to the cloud and carrying out statistical analysis on a large amount of case data, is suitable for the patient with restricted mouth opening in different degrees, and ensures that the patient feels more comfortable and more personalized and more accords with the treatment of actual conditions.
