Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to a portable dental treatment device in which a dental treatment instrument used for home treatment and remote diagnosis is housed in a transportable container.

(Prior art and issues to be solved) In recent years, home care is required for elderly patients who need dental treatment, and dental treatment in remote areas where there is no dentist is important. In the case of treatment in 1), a portable treatment device set is required.

The conditions required for a portable treatment device are micromotor handpieces or air turbine handpieces, three-way syringes for washing and drying, etc., as the minimum necessary treatment equipment, all of which are directly handled by the practitioner. It is intended to be used by grasping it. It is important that these instruments are housed in a single container together with the operation panel, and that the handpieces and syringes that are necessary at the time of use can be taken out and used for treatment.

The applicant has already constituted a first unit for accommodating a handpiece and the like, a second unit composed of a compressor device and a third unit composed of a vacuum device, and each unit is housed in a separate lightweight rigid case and is portable. The proposed portable dental care device (No. Shokai 61-77012) was proposed in the first unit.
At the time of storage, each handpiece etc. is stored separately from the tube to be connected, and the syringe holder for the therapeutic device such as the handpiece is an assembly type and is laid down and fixed for easy storage. It was

However, in the first unit, at the time of treatment, the lid of the case is opened, the holder for the treatment tool is erected vertically on the inner surface of the case, and the handpiece or the like is connected to the tube at the end portion thereof to make the syringe for the treatment tool. It is locked to the holder, and when used, the handpiece is removed from the syringe holder for the treatment tool and used for cutting the oral tooth of the patient, etc., and the tube is hung down around the patient's pillow or other areas. Met. After the treatment, the same storage work was required.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the portable dental treatment apparatus.

(Means for Solving the Problem and Its Action) In the portable dental treatment apparatus of the present invention, a dental treatment instrument is stored in a container 1, that is, a portable case 1, and when the container 1 is treated. In this embodiment, the abutment 3 is projected or embedded in the base 2, and one end of the support arm 4 is pivotally supported at the upper end of the abutment 3, and the syringe holder 5 is pivotally supported at the front side of the support arm. At the same time, the support arm 4 and the syringe holder 5 can be stopped at each pivot position by an urging force such as a spring or elastic force of each pivot portion or a frictional force of each elastic member, thereby forming a treatment instrument holding device. Since the treatment instrument 6 is locked and held by the syringe holder 5 and the support arm 4 is accommodated in the container 1, both the treatment instrument 6 and the treatment instrument holding device are accommodated in the container and the upper lid is not provided. It becomes portable.

At the time of treatment, the container 1 is placed under the patient's pillow and other peripheral portions, the lid is opened, and a treatment instrument 6 such as a handpiece is locked as shown in FIG. 1 (b). When 5 is pulled out forward, the support arm 4 tilts forward with the pivotal support portion of the abutment 3 of the support arm 4 as a fulcrum, and when the syringe holder 5 is released, the support arm 4 stops and the treatment instrument 6 moves forward at a desired height. Hold on. Practitioner needs handpiece 6
Can be removed from the syringe holder 5 for treatment, and when the use is finished, the syringe holder 5 can be retained by being locked. Since each treatment instrument 6 has its own dedicated treatment instrument holding device, if the syringe holder 5 is locked / removed, it can be used selectively.

Further, the tube 7 connected to the rear end of the treatment instrument 6 has its other end fixed near the base 2,
In particular, it is desirable that the tube 7 is non-detachably attached to the support arm 4, and the portion of the tube 7 from the pivotal support portion of the syringe holder 5 to the rear end portion of the treatment instrument 6 is supported with a considerable length. .

(Embodiment) An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of a set of handpiece type therapeutic instruments 61 to 64 and a therapeutic instrument holding device housed in a suitcase type container 1. In this example, the widest outer surface of the container is a vertical surface, the narrowest outer surface is a bottom surface, the inner surface of the container close to the bottom surface is a base portion 2, and an abutment 3 of a therapeutic instrument holding device is embedded in the base portion 2. The support arm 4 is pivotally supported on the abutment 3, and the hinge 53 of the syringe holder 5 is pivotally supported on the upper end of the support arm 4 to form a therapeutic instrument holding device. The syringe holder 5 has a micromotor. Four types of treatment tools 61 to 64, such as handpieces, are locked and held. The mode of use of the treatment instrument holding device and each treatment instrument at the time of treatment is as described above with reference to FIG.
The container 1 is provided with a power panel 19 and an operation panel 18, and a power cord, a compressed air hose and a suction hose are connected at the power panel 19, and the operation panel 18 can control and control each treatment instrument 6. Is being done.

FIG. 3 shows a sectional view of the therapeutic instrument holding device of the present invention. In the pivotal support portion between the abutment 3 and the support arm 4, the inner surface of the U-shaped plate of the abutment 3 and the support arm 4 are shown. The outer surface of the plate material is pressed by the spring 32 pushing force and brought into contact with the outer surface of the plate material.
The support arm 4 can be tilted about the shaft 31 as a fulcrum,
In addition, it is possible to hold and stop at the desired tilt angle. Similarly, a pivot portion of the support arm 4 with respect to the syringe holder 5 is also tilted with a frictional force between the surface of the hinge 53 of the syringe holder 5 and the outer surface of the support arm by interposing a spring 46 coaxially with the shaft 41. It is pivotally supported so that it can be stopped.

The cross section of the support arm is U-shaped, a cover 44 is provided on the opening side, and the tube 7 of the treatment instrument is inserted into the hollow part of the cover 44. The shaft 41 rotates around the shaft 41 and is supported by the shaft.

(Effects) By implementing the portable dental treatment apparatus of the present invention, the following effects can be obtained.

1. Each dental treatment instrument is locked and retained by a dedicated treatment instrument holding device, and when the support arm of the treatment instrument holding device is pulled out forward in use, the practitioner can easily remove the required treatment instrument from the syringe holder. Since it is ready for use, no special preparation is required for the treatment instrument, and the treatment instrument can be stored very easily even after the treatment is completed.

2. When the therapeutic instrument is used for treatment, the tube connected to the therapeutic instrument is supported at the pivotal portion of the support arm with the syringe holder, so that the practitioner does not feel the weight of the tube and the patient does not feel it. Since the tube does not enter around the head of the patient, the influence of the tube on the treatment when the portable treatment device is used can be eliminated.
