1 to 5 will be described a preferred embodiment of the suction device having a contaminant removal function according to the present invention.

Suction device (8) having a contaminant removal function according to the present invention, suction tank (2) for suction storage and discharge of the extract, such as saliva, blood, tooth cuttings; A suction motor (1) for sucking the extract by making the suction tank into a vacuum state; A heating tank 4 for heating the extracts introduced from the suction tank; A condenser (5) for liquefying steam generated from the heating tank; A purifier 7 connected to one end of the condenser; It is configured to include, and preferably, the upper end of the suction tank (2) is further connected to the suction pipe 27 for sucking the extract generated during the treatment.

The suction tank 2 is composed of a first suction tank 23 and a second suction tank 24, and the first suction tank 23 is connected to the suction motor 1 through a first pipe 25. The second suction tank 24 is connected to the suction pipe 27. In addition, the first suction tank 23 and the second suction tank 24 are positioned adjacent to each other at the same height, and the upper end is in communication with each other by the second pipe 26, and the lower end is by the third pipe 28. It is connected to the heating tank (4).

In addition, a motor valve (3) is installed on the third pipe (28) connecting the suction tank (2) and the heating tank (4), and the solenoid valve (11) is further installed on the suction motor (1). On the first pipe 25, a vacuum pressure regulator 251 and an air filter 12 are further installed. Preferably, one motor valve 3 is installed in each of the third pipes 28 to correspond to the first and second suction tanks 23 and 24.

A suction motor (1, suction motor) is provided with a pedal switch (not shown). When the doctor presses the pedal switch, the motor operates to bring the suction tank 2 into a vacuum state, and at the same time, opens a valve installed in the suction pipe 27. The suction in the patient's mouth is sucked into the suction tank (2, suction tank).

In general, when the suction operation is not performed, all the valves of the suction device 8, for example, the valve of the suction pipe, the motor valve and the solenoid valve, etc. are closed, and when the suction motor 1 is operated, the suction tank 2 Since the vacuum is completely, the extraction work, such as moisture remaining in the suction tank (2) due to the existing suction operation may be sucked into the suction motor (1) may cause a malfunction and failure of the motor. Therefore, it is possible to maintain the vacuum state of the suction tank 2 at an appropriate vacuum pressure by the vacuum pressure regulator 251 installed on the first pipe 25 to prevent the remaining extract from flowing into the suction motor 1.

Further, inside the first suction tank 23, a cross section consisting of a vertical portion extending downward from an upper surface thereof and a horizontal portion extending orthogonally from a lower end portion of the vertical portion has a “┙” shape, so that the first pipe 25 and the first pipe 25 are formed. A first partition 231 is provided surrounding the connection member 252 connecting the first suction tank 23. The second suction tank 24 extends downward from an upper surface thereof to a second level sensor ( Terminating in the middle of 22, a second partition 241 is provided between the second pipe 26 and the second water level sensor 22.

Extraction sucked during the oral suction operation of the patient is sucked into the second suction tank 24 in a spray state, so foreign matter and water are bent in a spray state, and thus the first suction tank through the second pipe 26. (23) and suction motor (1) may cause a failure of the suction motor. In this way, the suction tank 2 is configured in two, and the first and second partitions 231 and 241 are disposed on the suction tanks 23 and 24 to prevent the sprayed water and foreign substances from entering the suction motor. Each of the second partitions 241 is provided in the upper portion of the second suction tank 24, and the sprayed water and foreign substances mainly formed in the upper portion of the second suction tank 24 are not introduced into the adjacent first suction tank 23. Let it calm down inside In addition, the foreign matter in the sprayed state passing through the second partition 241 flows into the first suction tank 23, in which case the first partition 231 is introduced into the suction motor 1 in the sprayed state. To prevent it from sinking in the first suction tank 23.

As the two suction tanks 23 and 24 and the first and second partitions 231 and 241, most foreign substances in the sprayed state are caught and do not flow into the suction motor 1, but sometimes very fine foreign substances are not filtered out. Since it may be introduced into the suction motor, the air filter 12 is further installed on the first pipe 25 to prevent this. By filtering the water or fine foreign matter through the air filter 12, it is possible to prevent the fine foreign matter from entering the suction motor. The lower portion of the air filter 12 is equipped with a tube, the tube can store moisture or fine foreign matter caught by the air filter for a period of time, and can also be separated from the air filter to remove the moisture or fine foreign matter.

Both side surfaces of the first and second partitions 231 and 241 in the longitudinal direction are spaced apart from the inner side surfaces of the suction tanks 23 and 24 at a predetermined interval, as shown in FIG. 5. The end of the horizontal portion is also spaced apart from the inner side surface of the first suction tank 23 by a predetermined distance. The separation of the partition from the side of the suction tank at a predetermined interval as described above blocks the movement of foreign substances in the sprayed state, and operates the suction motor 1 to operate the first and second suction tanks 23 and 24. This is to make it possible to vacuum smoothly.

In the suction tank 2, water level sensors 21 and 22 are installed to detect the level of the extract in the tank. More specifically, the suction tank is provided with a water level sensor having a different length. In the suction tank 2, the left side of the drawing is called the first suction tank 23, and the right side is called the second suction tank 24, and the level sensor of the first suction tank 23 The length is configured to be smaller than the length of the water level sensor of the second suction tank (24). The different lengths of the water level sensors 21 and 22 are due to the different roles of the sensors.

When the extract is sucked into the second suction tank 24 through the suction pipe 27 in the mouth of the patient and reaches the height of the outlet 261 of the second pipe 26, the extract is first sucked through the second pipe 26. It flows into the tank 23 and fills up to the lower end of the first level sensor 21 of the first suction tank 23, which is referred to as the highest level. The first water level sensor 21 detects the highest water level and sends a signal to a control device (not shown). The control device opens the motor valve 3 to discharge the extract to the heating tank 4. . Therefore, the first water level sensor 21 detects the level of the extract in the suction tank 2 and serves to forcibly discharge it to the heating tank 4. Here, the highest water level of the extract is when the extract is filled at the lower end of the first level sensor 21 in the first suction tank 23, and the extract is discharged from the second pipe 26 in the second suction tank 24. 261) at the same height as the height. As described above, the opening of the motor valve 3 is performed by the first water level sensor 21. In general, two motor valves are opened at the same time to discharge the extract to the heating tank 4, Only the motor valve can be opened to release the extract.

As described above, when the discharge of the extract to the heating tank 4 and the suction operation for the patient are finished, the operation of the suction (vacuum) motor 1 is stopped, and the solenoid valve 11 is opened to allow the outside air to flow through the first pipe. And the second suction tanks 23 and 24 are introduced into the atmospheric pressure state. At the same time, the motor valve 3 is automatically opened, and the extraction of the suction tank is discharged to the heating tank 4 due to the phase difference between the first and second suction tanks 23 and 24 and the heating tank 4. Then, when the heater 43 installed inside the heating tank 4 is heated to separate the extract into steam and solids, steam enters the condenser 5, and the solids are settled at the bottom of the heating tank 4. The heater 43 is a direct heating type installed in direct contact with the extracts in the heating tank 4 to improve the heating efficiency, but to prevent corrosion and scale of the heater surface caused by direct contact with the extracts. Tron coating is preferable, and it is also preferable to use a heater made of stainless steel and titanium which are resistant to corrosion.

The water level detection sensor of the second suction tank 24 is a second water level detection sensor 22, and is a sensor that detects that the extract is discharged from the suction tank to the heating tank. When the extract is located at the lower end of the second level sensor 22 (lowest level of the extract), the sensor detects that the discharge is completed and closes the motor valve 3 on the third pipe 28. That is, the second water level sensor 22 detects completion of the discharge of the extracts from the suction tanks 23 and 24, and the detected signal is transmitted to the controller, and the controller closes the motor valve 3.

As described above, after discharging the extract to the heating tank 4, the motor valve 3 should be immediately closed. If the motor valve 3 is not immediately closed, a high temperature that may remain in the heating tank 4 after the extract is heated. Steam may flow back into the suction tanks 23 and 24 and the suction motor 1 through the pipe, and the suction motor due to the hot steam may be prevented unless the reverse flow of the steam generated in the heating tank 4 is prevented. (1) It may cause damage and operation error.

In the heating tank 4, two water level sensors 41 and 42 are installed to sense the level of the extract. On the drawing, the water level sensor on the left is called the third water level sensor 41, and the water level sensor on the right is called the fourth water level sensor 42. When the extract reaches the bottom height of the third level sensor 41, the control device operates the heater 43 to heat the extract to generate steam, and the steam moves to the condenser 5 to contact external air. Liquefied and turns into water and water. The moisture and water are passed through the purification device (7, carbon filter), the contaminants contained are removed, and only the purified water is discharged to the sewer. Thus, the third level sensor 41 is a sensor associated with the operation of the heater. In addition, it is preferable that a fan 6 is installed at one side of the condenser 5 to smooth the condensation of the hot steam.

When the heating operation of the extract is finished, since the moisture or water of the extract is vaporized to become water vapor, the level of the extract is lowered. When the water level is lowered and reaches the lower end of the fourth water level sensor 42, the control device stops the operation of the heater 43, thereby stopping the heating of the extract. Therefore, the fourth water level sensor 42 is a sensor associated with stopping (stopping) the heater.

A water level stabilizer 44 is installed around the third and fourth water level sensors 41 and 42, and the water level stabilizer 44 is installed while surrounding the water level sensors 41 and 42. When the extract is boiled due to the heating of the heater 43, the surface of the liquid extract is rumbled, at which time it is difficult to detect the correct water level. The water level stabilizer 44 surrounds the water level sensor and is formed with a gap through which liquid extracts pass only at the lower end. The gap allows the water level detection sensors 41 and 42 to be less susceptible to the rumble of the extract when the extract is broken. Therefore, a relatively accurate level can be measured.

Referring to the operation of the present invention, first operating the suction device (8) to suck the extract in the oral cavity, the suction (vacuum) motor (1) is operated so that the suction tank (2) is in a vacuum state, the suction By opening the valve of the suction pipe 27 connected to the tank 2, the extract (saliva, blood, tooth cutting, etc.) generated in the oral cavity during treatment is sucked into the suction tank (2, suction tank). Here, since the suction tank 2 is in a vacuum state and the outside is in an atmospheric pressure state, the extract in the oral cavity may be easily introduced into the suction tank. More specifically, when the first suction tank 23 connected to the suction motor 1 first becomes a vacuum state, the second suction tank communicating with the first suction tank 23 and the second pipe 26 ( 24) also becomes a vacuum state. At this time, the valve of the suction pipe 27 of the second suction tank 24 is opened to suck the extract in the oral cavity into the second suction tank 24.

The extract is filled from the second suction tank 24 and filled into the first suction tank 23 through the second pipe 26. The heights of the extracts of the two tanks are different from each other. In the first suction tank 23, the height of the outlet 261 of the second outlet 26 of the second pipe 26 is lower in the first level sensor 21, and in the second suction tank 24. Is the highest water level. At this time, the motor valve 3 maintains a closed state.

When the extract reaches the highest water level (constant height), the motor valve 3 is opened, and at the same time, the solenoid valve 11 installed in the motor 1 is opened, and the first suction tank 23 is first opened through the first pipe 25. When air flows into the second suction tank 24 through the second pipe 26 through which the first suction tank 23 and the second suction tank 24 communicate with each other, the first suction And the second suction tanks 23 and 24 are at atmospheric pressure, and the extracts of the first and second suction tanks 23 and 24 are naturally discharged and filled into the heating tank 4 due to the phase difference from the heating tank 4. . When the extraction tank is filled in the heating tank 4, the motor valve 3 is closed.

A heater 43 is installed below the heating tank 4, and the heater 43 heats the extract of the heating tank 4. The water vapor generated at this time is moved to the condenser 5 through the fourth pipe 29. While passing through the condenser 5, the high temperature steam is exchanged with air to become water (moisture) to purify the device (7, carbon filter). Go to). The water passes through a purification device, and the harmful substances and odors contained therein are purified (removed), and only the purified water is discharged to the sewer pipe through the discharge pipe (71).

When the extracts are heated in the heating tank 4, liquid substances such as water and water become vapors and move to the condenser 5, and the remaining solids are precipitated at the bottom of the heating tank 4, which deposits the precipitated solids. After collecting for a period of time (at least 6 months in the heating tank of the present invention), the solids are separated separately and disposed of as waste. The heating tank 4 is further configured as an extra, it is preferable to install the other tank to the suction device when cleaning one tank, so that the suction operation of the extract is not stopped. In addition, in the present invention is composed of two suction tanks (23, 24), in the case of a general suction operation may be performed by using only one suction tank on the right side. In addition, the suction tank may be configured in two or more according to the number of suction pipes 27 to be connected, it may be composed of a plurality depending on the number of suction tanks are also connected to the heating tank (4).
