Description

Inflatable mouth opener

This creation is related to a device that assists in opening a patient's dentition. More specifically, it refers to an inflatable mouthpiece that is easily inserted into the patient's occlusal dentition and distracts the patient's dentition.

According to the medical situation, patients who are unable to open their mouths or are unwilling to open often encounter medical treatments. In order to help open the mouth of the patient, the patient’s mouth is directly tilted with medical pliers. Open, this way not only the medical staff is not easy to operate, but often causes the patient to feel uncomfortable and even hurt the teeth and gums and bleed.

In order to solve the above problems, some manufacturers have developed mouth-opening devices that can help open the mouth of patients, and many related products and patents, such as the patents of the Republic of China, Nos. M389521 and 476277, the structure of which generally includes There are two pieces that can move relative to each other. After inserting the two pieces into the dentition of the patient, the two pieces are gradually separated by mechanical means (such as the cooperation of the transmission elements such as screws and nuts). Open the dentition of the patient's bite.

Although the mouthpiece shown in the previously disclosed patent is easier to operate than the conventional medical pliers, it does not hurt the patient's dentition, but the two pieces are not divided. It still has a certain thickness when it is opened, and it is not easy to directly insert into the occlusal occlusion of the patient. Therefore, there is still a situation in which the patient's dentition is injured and blood is caused. In addition, the mechanical force to open the patient's grip on the dentition is more tough, and in the case of the patient's tight-toothed dentition, it will also cause damage to the gums.

The main purpose of the present invention is to provide an inflatable mouth-opening device which can solve the problem of lack of components, which is not only simple in components, easy to operate, but also easy to be inserted into the dentition of the patient, and does not cause damage to the dentition due to the patient's struggle. Moreover, the strength of the patient's dentition is more flexible and does not harm the patient's gums, and is of practical value.

Therefore, in order to achieve the foregoing objective, the present invention provides an inflatable mouth-opening device, comprising a supporting member, which is a bent elastic piece, comprising a bent end and two corresponding ends, the bent end having A smooth surface; an airbag device disposed between the two corresponding ends is configured to be filled and deflated, and then the bent end can be opened or the bent end can be restored to its original shape.

Further, the abutting member is made of a rigid sheet having elasticity, and the bent end section is generally in the shape of a crucible.

Further, the abutting member is formed by bending a metal sheet body.

Further, a fixing hole is defined in each of the two corresponding ends, and the surface of the airbag device is provided with two clamping members for being respectively locked in the fixing holes.

The first figure is a perspective view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

The second figure is a schematic view of the airbag device being inflated and the abutment member is opened in a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

The third and fourth figures are schematic diagrams of the action of a preferred embodiment of the present invention, showing the state in which the end of the patient is inserted into the patient's dentition with the bent end and the airbag device is inflated to open the patient's mouth.

In the following, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. First, referring to the first to third figures, the inflatable mouthpiece of the preferred embodiment is created. 10, comprising abutting member 12 and an airbag device 14.

The abutting member 12 is formed by bending a metal sheet body and has appropriate elasticity, and has a bent end 22 and two corresponding ends 24 and 26. The bent end 22 has a cross-section and a surface. A smooth surface 28 is formed, for example, by polishing or the like. A fixing hole 30 is defined in each of the two corresponding ends 24 and 26 .

The airbag device 14 is made of an elastic material, such as silicone rubber, rubber, etc., and includes an airbag body 34, which is a balloon that can be filled and deflated by a gas nozzle, and the surface of the airbag body 34 is evenly protruded. The components 36 are respectively inserted into the fixing holes 30 so that the airbag device 14 can be fixed between the two corresponding ends 24, 26.

Therefore, the inflatable mouth-opening device 10 can be used to open the dentition of the patient to be tightly engaged. The manner and characteristics of the occlusal device 10 are as follows: the bent end 22 has a squat shape and a smooth surface 28, Therefore, the operator can easily use the bent end 22 to insert the occlusal row of the patient's occlusion, and the dentition is not damaged during the insertion of the dentition, and then the airbag device 14 is inflated, then the two corresponding ends 24, 26 can be expanded by the gradually expanding airbag device 14, so that the angle of the bent end 22 (the angle formed by the two corresponding ends 24, 26 connecting the bent end 22) gradually becomes larger, so that The deformed bent end 22 is used to open the patient's dentition for subsequent medical action. Of course, only the airbag device 14 is deflated, and the abutting member 12 can be restored to its original state by its own elasticity.

It can be seen from the above that the inflatable mouth-opening device cooperates with the airbag device by the supporting member, and the member is simpler and easier to operate than the conventional mouth-opening device, and the bent end is easy to be inserted into the patient bite. The dentition does not cause damage to the dentition due to the patient's struggle. Furthermore, the creation uses a rechargeable and deflated airbag device to change the angle between the bent ends, thereby propping up the patient's bite dentition and propping up the patient's dentition. The strength is more flexible, and it is less likely that the known mouthparts will mechanically force the patient's dentition to open the patient's dentition and may harm the patient's gums. The effect is very good and also has practical value.

It should be noted that the combination structure of the airbag device and the abutting member is not limited to the type of the front fastening member engaging the fixing hole, and may be adhesively or sleeved (for example, disposed outside the airbag body). Set of sleeves placed on the corresponding end For the type of connector, the airbag device can be stably disposed between the two corresponding ends, which is in accordance with the requirements of the present invention.

However, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. When it is not possible to limit the scope of the patent protection of the present invention, the simple equivalent change and replacement according to the scope of the patent application and the contents of the specification of the present invention are All should remain within the scope of protection covered by the scope of this patent application.
