[0002]
[Prior art]
FIG. 5 is an overall configuration diagram showing an example of a dental treatment unit to which the present invention is applied. The dental treatment unit includes a treatment chair 1, a work table 2, an instrument holder 3, various instruments 4, and a water supply / drainage box. 5. Cup water supply nozzle 6, Spitton 7, Spitton (bowl) water washing nozzle, and these cup water supply nozzle 6, Spiton 7, Spitton water washing nozzle 8, etc. are integrally provided, a cup holder for placing the cup 9, etc. Spitton base 10 and the like provided. The instrument holder 3 accommodates various instruments 4 used in dental treatment. As is well known, in the dental treatment, the patient sits on the chair 1 and fixes the head to the head base. Get treatment. During the treatment, the surgeon moves the treatment chair 1 up and down, tilts and tilts, etc. to make the patient easy to treat, and at the start, the patient sometimes gargles.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Thus, in dental treatment, the patient gargles in the oral cavity during dental treatment, sometimes after the end of treatment, etc., but since the spitons are conventionally fixed, the patient puts the body forward. Therefore, gargle water in the oral cavity must be spouted into Spitton 7, and the gargle work has not been easy especially for elderly people, people with weak physical bodies, people with physical disabilities and the like.
[0004]
The present invention has been made in view of the circumstances as described above, so that instead of the patient putting the body forward, the spitn is brought to the front so that the patient can gargle in an easy posture, and after the gargle is finished, The spittons are automatically returned to their original positions by simply pressing the spits.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention relates to a dental spitton that is rotatably attached to a fixed portion of a water supply / drainage box , and a rotating shaft portion is connected to the water supply / drainage box fixing portion by a coupling, and a plunger is attached to the rotary portion of the spitone, The box has a pressing member that cooperates with the plunger, and when the spitn is pulled forward, the plunger and the pressing member are engaged to hold the spiton in a gargle position, It is characterized in that it automatically returns to the original position by compiling .

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
FIG. 1 is a view for explaining the operation of a spitone according to the present invention. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the spiton (FIG. 1 (A)) and the relative positional relationship between the spiton and the patient (FIG. 1 (B)). As shown in the figure, the Spitton 7 is attached to a Spitton base 10 that is rotatably attached to the upper part of the water supply / drainage box 5, and when gargle, the patient M extends his hand and is provided on the Spitton base 10. When the handle 11 is pulled to the hand, the Spitton base 10 rotates about the vertical axis OO, and the Spitton 7 comes in front of the patient. Here, the patient gargles in the oral cavity and discharges gargle water in the oral cavity into the spitone 7. At this time, since the spitton 7 is in front of the patient, the patient can discharge the gargle water in the oral cavity to the spitone 7 in an easy posture. After the completion of the gargle, the spit 7 must be returned to the original position. At this time, in the present invention, the spit 7 is simply returned to the original position by pushing the spit base 10 back to the original direction with a light force. It can be returned to.
[0010]
FIG. 2 is a view for explaining a mechanism for performing the operation of the spitons according to the present invention as described above. FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of the main part when the spits are viewed from the lower side. Reference numeral 12 denotes a rotating shaft of the Spitton base 10, and the rotating shaft 12 is rotatably attached to an upper plate or the like of the water supply / drainage box 5. Reference numeral 13 denotes a coupling attached to a fixed portion of the water supply / drainage box 5, and one end of the coupling 13 is fixed to the rotating shaft of the spitn base 10. Here, when the patient gargles and pulls the hand with the handle 11 of the Spitton base 10, the Spitton base 10 rotates in the direction of the arrow, and the compling is extended. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, a plunger (for example, a ball plunger) 15 is attached to the rotating shaft portion of the spitn base 10 (for example, the side surface or the lower surface of the nut 14 for fixing the shaft of the spittoon). When the spitton 7 is pulled to the gargle position in front of the patient, the tip of the plunger 15 is engaged with the presser member 16 fixed to the water supply / drainage box. The ball protruding from the tip of the jar 15 first strikes the inclined surface of the holding member 16 and is lifted upward along the inclined surface and rides on the horizontal surface. In this state, that is, the ball plunger 15 and the presser With the member 16 engaged, the Spitton base 10 is held in that position. The patient gargles in this state, and after gargle, lightly pushes back Spitton 7 (or Spitton base 10). Then, using the force by which the ball plunger 15 is disengaged from the presser member 16 and the stretched compression returns to the original state, the spitn base 10 is automatically rotated to return to the original position.
[0012]
【The invention's effect】
As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, in dental treatment, the patient can gargle in a comfortable posture by pulling the spit forward. It can be automatically returned to the original position .
