Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a dental treatment for wheelchairs, and more particularly, to a dental treatment table which can be placed on a dental treatment table while being in a wheelchair (that is, a wheelchair). The present invention relates to a dental treatment table capable of receiving treatment.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Medical treatments such as dental treatment are often performed on patients in wheelchairs. In this case, if the patient can move to the treatment chair, there are relatively few problems, but still, it burdens the patient for movement, or it takes time to move between the treatment chair and the wheelchair before and after treatment. And there is a problem that efficient treatment cannot be performed.

In order to cope with this, in order to be able to perform dental treatment while being in a wheelchair, a removable headrest and backrest are prepared for the wheelchair, and these are mounted on the wheelchair. It has been proposed that dental treatment can be performed while in a wheelchair.

[0004]

As described above, it is effective in itself to perform dental treatment while the wheelchair is on by using a detachable headrest or a backrest on the wheelchair. However, in recent years, with the increase in the elderly population,
The number of elderly people using wheelchairs is increasing, and in order to accommodate many wheelchair-bound patients, the work of attaching and detaching a headrest and a backrest must be performed frequently, which is a serious task. In addition, in a state of being in a wheelchair, the wheelchair cannot be tilted backward, and treatment of the upper jaw and the like is difficult.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and allows dental treatment of the upper jaw while being in a wheelchair, and furthermore, a dental treatment that can be easily brought into a dental treatment state. The purpose is to provide a treatment table.

[0006]

According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a substrate capable of being mounted on a wheelchair, a driving mechanism for vertically moving the front side of the substrate with the near side of the substrate as a center of rotation,
It has a column erected on one side in front of the substrate, and an abutment and a backrest support column that are rotatably attached to the column, and rotates the abutment and the backrest. The abutment and the backrest do not obstruct the ride of the wheelchair onto the board, and in this state, the wheelchair rides forward on the board and is fixed to the board. It is characterized in that it is configured to return to the side, so that it is possible to easily perform treatment of the upper jaw while being in a wheelchair, and furthermore, it is possible to easily put it into a dental treatment state .

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided, before the substrate, a run-up plate for riding a wheelchair on the substrate.
It is characterized in that the front side of the run-up plate is lifted so that it can be suspended on the support or the support pillar, thereby making it easy to get on the board of the wheelchair and performing treatment of the upper jaw and the like. The treatment space behind the patient is ensured.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the first or second aspect of the present invention, the means for fixing the wheelchair to the board includes a string fixing member provided on both front sides of the board and a tension between the string fixing members. It is a string member provided, characterized in that the string member is passed over the back of the wheelchair and tightened, thereby securely fixing the wheelchair to the treatment table, enabling the wheelchair to tilt backward, The treatment of the maxilla was made possible.

[0009]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a schematic side view of an essential part for explaining an embodiment of a dental treatment table according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a front view, and FIG. 3 is a state in which a wheelchair is mounted on the dental treatment table. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a board on which a wheelchair is mounted, 2 denotes a run-in board disposed on the near side of the board 1, and 3 denotes an upright one side of the board 1. The support 3 is provided with a support 6 supporting the abutment 4 and the backrest 5 so as to be rotatable around a pin shaft 7, for example.

[0010] In the dental treatment, the head 4 and the back 5
2 in a state shown by a chain line in FIG. 2 so as not to obstruct the passage of the wheelchair. In this state, the patient moves forward in the direction of arrow A while riding on the wheelchair, To the front, stop against the front, and lock the wheelchair in that state.

A string fixing device 8 is provided on both sides of the front part of the substrate 1, and a string 9 is passed between the string fixing devices 8 as shown in FIG. Wheelchair 20
When the wheelchair 20 is tilted backward,
Fix firmly to the substrate 1. In addition, this string fixing device 8
It will be easily understood that the hook member is not limited to the buckle type shown in the illustrated example, but may be a simple hook-type member or a hook member having another shape.

After the wheelchair 20 is firmly fixed on the substrate 1 as described above, the headrest 4 and the backrest 5 are
Return to the original state (the solid line position in FIG. 2) (that is, to the back of the patient's head and back), prepare for dental treatment, perform dental treatment in this state, or place the substrate 1 in FIG. As shown by, the dental treatment is performed by inclining backward (that is, in the upper jaw treatment state).

[0013] Thus, during maxillary treatment, the surgeon
Since the patient is in a position to perform treatment from the back of the patient, the approaching plate 2 is in the way. Therefore, as shown by a chain line in FIG. 1, the run-up plate 2 is lifted from its front part and suspended on the support column 3 or the support column 6. Work space is secured. Reference numeral 10 denotes a foot switch for tilting the substrate 1.

[0014]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a board which can be mounted on a wheelchair, a driving mechanism which moves up and down in front of the board with the near side of the board as a center of rotation, and one side in front of the board. Side support, and an abutment and a backrest support column rotatably attached to the support, and the abutment and the backrest are rotated to rotate the abutment and the backrest into a wheelchair. In such a state that it does not hinder the ride on the substrate, and in this state, the wheelchair rides forward on the substrate, is fixed to the substrate, and the headrest and the backrest are returned to the rear side of the patient. Therefore, the treatment of the upper jaw can be easily performed while being in a wheelchair, and the dental treatment state can be easily changed.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided, before the substrate, a run-up plate for riding a wheelchair on the substrate.
Since the front side of the run-up plate is lifted to be able to be suspended on the support or the support column, it is easy to get on the board of the wheelchair, and a treatment space at the rear of the patient required for performing treatment of the upper jaw and the like. Can be secured.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the first or second aspect of the present invention, the means for fixing the wheelchair to the substrate includes a string fixing member provided on both front sides of the substrate and a tension between the string fixing members. It is a string member provided, and the string member is hung over the rear side of the wheelchair and tightened, so that the wheelchair is securely fixed to the treatment table, the wheelchair can be tilted backward, and treatment of the upper jaw is possible Becomes
