DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the dental treatment system for elderly people of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an explanatory plan view of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a front view of the same, as viewed from the right in FIG. In the figure, 1 is a dental treatment chair, 2 is a spitton, 3 'is a dental table, 5 is a cart type work table, 6 is a light pole, L is an oral treatment light, L' is a cart type work table lighting light, Kr is a patient (head), Dr is a dentist (head), V is a suction port of a vacuum device, and H is a handpiece for dental technics.

In the dental treatment system for the elderly, etc. of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the dentist Dr is located on the opposite side of the spitton 2 of the dental treatment chair 1 in parallel with the patient Kr. A cart type work table 5 is provided in front of.

[0010] The cart-type work table 5 is movable on a caster provided below, and is equipped with an elevating mechanism so that the height of the table can be adjusted. Also, at the bottom of the table,
Suction port V of vacuum equipment for sucking and cutting scattered powder
And a dental laboratory handpiece H are provided. The work table 5 is also provided with a blinking switch SW for a cart-type work table lighting light L ', so that the doctor Dr can immediately turn on the light L' when necessary without moving.

Accordingly, the doctor Dr takes out the workpiece 7 such as a complete denture or a partial denture from the patient Kr at the aforementioned position, transfers it to the cart-type work table 5, and carries out the technical cutting / polishing powder from under the table. The suction port V for dental use and the handpiece H for dental technics can be pulled out and easily corrected by the technical work of cutting and polishing. Further, while the workpiece 7 such as a denture is mounted in the oral cavity of the patient Kr and the conformity is inspected, the technical modification of cutting and polishing can be repeated by simply reciprocating the wrist without moving the place.

On the dental treatment chair 1, a dental table 3 ', a light L for oral treatment and a light L' for illuminating a cart-type work table are each independently rotatable and adjustable, and each tip is freely swingable. It is arranged in.

On the dental table 3 ', a handpiece and a vacuum device for oral treatment can be placed, and the height and position suitable for treatment can be adjusted. The height and direction of the oral care light L can be adjusted according to the sitting position or the lying position of the patient Kr. The flashing switch is directly attached to the light L. (Not shown).

The cart-type work table lighting light L 'attached to the light pole 6 irradiates the irradiation light I across the dental treatment chair 1 with the cart-type work table 5 on the opposite side.
The upper workpiece 7 is irradiated. However, even when the position and height of the table 5 are changed in accordance with the treatment position and posture of the doctor Dr, the illumination direction can be changed by turning and swinging to a suitable illumination direction. Easy to adjust.

Further, it is desirable that the light L ′ be installed so as to be pivotable and swingable by shortening the arm length, because it is not only stable but also does not hinder the dental treatment for the patient Kr. The length of the arm of the light L 'is set to be approximately on the center line of the dental treatment chair,
It is desirable to take care that the light beam does not intersect with the arm and generate a shadow, and does not interfere with the treatment for the patient Kr. In addition, it is desirable to use a small light projector that generates a converged light flux having a converging and high illumination effect for the light L ′. In the case of a small floodlight, not only can the work table 5 be brightly illuminated by increasing the luminous intensity,
Does not adversely affect patient Kr.

As with the oral care light L, the light L 'may be extended beyond the center line of the treatment chair so that the arm can be lengthened to swing the tip so that the work table 5 is illuminated. There is a problem that it interferes with Kr and also crosses the therapeutic light L.

Also, if the blinking switch SW of the light L 'is set on the work table 5, the doctor Dr blinks the light L' when necessary without moving, and is brightly illuminated. Technical work can be performed accurately on the work table.

In the above embodiment, the work table lighting light L 'is mounted above the light pole 6.
It is also preferable to add one or more light poles alone or in addition to the upper light in the middle of the light pole 6 to increase the lighting effect.

In this embodiment, the case where the blinking switch of the illumination light L 'is attached to the work table 5 has been described. However, this may be attached to a convenient place such as a chair housing or a foot controller. . Further, it is also preferable to be configured to turn on the light in conjunction with the switch of the handpiece H for technical work.

In the invention of the present application, since the work table lighting light L 'is mounted above the light pole 6, no new installation work of the light L' is necessary. In addition, the installation work becomes large, and the position and angle adjusting device of the light L 'must be specially configured, which requires much labor and cost.

It is also possible to mount the illuminating light L 'in such a manner that the lighting L' is directly planted on the work table 5, but in such a case, the following inconvenience occurs. . Lights are not necessary in the work of mixing paste materials, but when a work table is used, the work may be difficult to perform such as mixing because the lights are in the way. . Since the illumination light L 'is mounted at a relatively low position, the light L' hinders the patient from being seated, or the light L '.
There is a danger that doctors and patients will come into contact with the lamp that has been heated to a high temperature during lighting. . Since the place where the cutting and polishing work is performed is close to the lamp, the difference in illuminance inside and outside the irradiation range is extremely large, and the eyes of the doctor who works are considerably tired. Further, the radiant heat accompanying the lighting of the lamp hits the doctor and gives an unpleasant feeling.

[0022]

According to the present invention having the above structure, the dentist can perform additional dental work on the chair side without moving from the place of dental treatment for the patient. In addition, the workpiece on the cart-type work table can be brightly illuminated without adversely affecting the patient,
Technical work can be performed properly in conjunction with dental treatment,
Thus, the treatment efficiency can be further improved. In addition, since the cart-type work table lighting light is independently rotatable and adjustable, and the tip is swingable,
Even if the position and height of the table are changed in accordance with the treatment position and posture of the dentist, it is possible to easily adjust to a suitable lighting state.
