Abstract

The cleaning device for dental prostheses is simple to assemble and absolutely maintenance-free and permits one or more individuals to clean their dental prostheses hygienically and thoroughly. When the device is used by several individuals every user uses his own cleaning dish into which the dental prosthesis is laid, and his own brush head. By removing of the dental prosthesis and laying it in the cleaning dish, cleaning can be done by somebody else, especially in the case of people who are ill or frail. The cleaned prosthesis is then removed from the cleaning dish by the prosthesis wearer himself and put back into the mouth. The thorough cleaning of the dental prosthesis with the one-handed cleaning device for dental prostheses at the same time prevents a number of consequential disorders which are otherwise caused by dental prostheses not being cleaned in a hygienically satisfactory way.

Description

Beschreibung: Description:

Zahnprothesen-Reinigungsgerät Die Erfindung betrifft ein Zahnprothesen-Reinigungsgerät für die Verwendung in Altersheimen, Krankenhäusern, Pflegestationen und privaten Haushalten. Denture cleaning device The invention relates to a Denture cleaning device for use in retirement homes, hospitals, care wards and private households.

Das Einhand-Zahnprothesen Reinigungsgerät soll insbesondere allen Trägern von Zahnprothesen ermöglichen, auch bei körperlicher Behinderung oder Angewiesenheit auf die Hilfe Dritter, die Zahnprothesen des Ober- bzw.The one-hand denture cleaning device is especially intended for everyone Allow wearers of dentures, even with physical disabilities or dependency on the help of third parties, the dentures of the upper or

Unterkiefers getrennt und hygienisch einwandfrei sowie gründlich die Reinigung der Zahnprothese selbst vorzunehmen bzw. ohne Beeinträchtigung der hygienischen Erfordernisse durch Dritte vornehmen zu lassen. Dazu wird die Zahnprothese in die individuell zur Person des Prothesenträgers gehörende Reinigungsschale gelegt und nach Einsetzen der ebenso individuell nur von der Person des Zahnprothesenträgers benutzten Reinigungsbürste (Bürstenkopf) in das Gerät, gründlich, schonend und hygienisch gereinigt. Desweiteren ist durch die Verwendung eines magnetisch betriebenen Schwingarmes und der inseitig im Gerät angebrachten Dämmschale einerseits Wartungsfreiheit bei gleichzeitiger optimaler Geräuschdämmung sichergestellt. Der Geräuschpegel des in Betrieb befindlichen Einhand-Zahnprothesen-Reinigungsgerätes entspricht in etwa einem elektrischen Rasierapparat. Clean the denture yourself or have it done by third parties without impairing the hygienic requirements. To do this, the denture is placed in the cleaning bowl that belongs to the person wearing the denture and is thoroughly, gently and hygienically cleaned after the cleaning brush (brush head), which is also only used by the person wearing the denture, has been inserted into the device. Furthermore, the use of a magnetically operated swing arm and the insulation shell attached to the inside of the device ensure freedom from maintenance and, at the same time, optimal noise insulation. The noise level of the one-hand denture cleaning device in operation corresponds roughly to that of an electric shaver.

Es ist nicht bekannt, daß derzeit ein ähnliches Gerät existiert. It is not known that a similar device currently exists.

Der Erfindung obliegt die Aufgabe, das schnelle und unproblematische Reinigen der Zahnprothese zu ermöglichen, wobei durch die Wirkungsweise des Gerätes die Bildung von Zahnstein und anderen Belägen vermieden wird. The object of the invention is to enable the dental prosthesis to be cleaned quickly and without problems, with the operation of the device preventing the formation of tartar and other deposits.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsmäßig dadurch gelöst, daß die in der Reinigungsschale liegende Zahnprothese durch die elektromagnetisch erzeugte Klopfbewegung der Reinigungsbürste (Bürstenkopf) von allen Speiseresten und Belagansätzen abgeklopft wird, wobei nach dem Abklopfvorgang die Prothese lediglich unter fließendem Wasser abgespült werden muß. The object is achieved according to the invention in that the tooth prosthesis lying in the cleaning bowl is knocked off from all food residues and deposits by the electromagnetically generated knocking movement of the cleaning brush (brush head), the prosthesis only having to be rinsed under running water after the knocking process.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile bestehen insbesondere darin, daß statt der manuellen Reinigung der Zahnprothese mit einer Zahnbürste, wobei die Prothese mit der einen Hand gehalten und mit der anderen die Zahnbürste geführt wird, nunmehr ein Berühren der Prothese nicht mehr notwendig ist.The advantages achieved with the invention are in particular: that instead of manually cleaning the denture with a toothbrush, the Holding the prosthesis with one hand and guiding the toothbrush with the other it is no longer necessary to touch the prosthesis.

Durch die schnell folgenden Klopfbewegungen des Bürstenkopfes wird die in der Reinigungsschale liegende Zahnprothese mit leichtem Druck von unten an den Bürstenkopf gehalten, was eine gleichmäßige und restlose Reinigung der gesamten Prothese ermöglicht.The quickly following tapping movements of the brush head will the dental prosthesis lying in the cleaning bowl with light pressure from below the brush head held, resulting in an even and complete cleaning of the whole Prosthesis made possible.

Durch Auswechseln des Bürstenkopfes und Verwendung der eigenen Reinigungsschale ist außerdem die Benutzung des Gerätes selbst mehreren Personen hygienisch einwandfrei möglich. Ebenso ist zur Bedienung und Durchführung des gesamten Reinigungsvorganges nur eine Hand notwendig, die die Reinigungsschale von Unten an das Gerät heranführt. Damit ist die Verwendung des Gerätes auch Behinderten, Gebrechlichen, Älteren und nötigenfalls dritten Personen ohne weiteres möglich. By changing the brush head and using your own cleaning bowl, the device can also be used by several people in a hygienically perfect manner. Likewise, only one hand is required to operate and carry out the entire cleaning process, which brings the cleaning bowl to the device from below. This means that the device can also be used by the handicapped, the infirm, the elderly and, if necessary, third parties.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der beigefügten, nicht maßstäblichen, Zeichnung dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher beschrieben: Das Gerät kann mit der Wandhalterung praktisch überall befestigt werden. Die beiden Elektromagnete sorgen durch abreißenden Stromkontakt für die notwendigen Bewegungen des Schwingarmes.An embodiment of the invention is shown in the appended, not to scale, drawing and is described in more detail below: The The device can be attached practically anywhere with the wall bracket. The two Electromagnets ensure the necessary movements by breaking current contact of the swing arm.

Der Bürstenkopf wird von unten in die Führungshülse gedrückt und in dem beweglichen Bürstenkopfhalter mittels einer Kugelfederarretierung befestigt. Der Gerätekörper selbst ist inseitig mit einer Geräuschdämmung versehen. Die Abmessungen des Gesamtgerätes betragen ca. 200x150xW0 mm. - Leerseite -The brush head is pressed into the guide sleeve from below and in attached to the movable brush head holder by means of a ball spring lock. The device body itself is provided with noise insulation on the inside. The dimensions of the entire device are approx. 200x150xW0 mm. - blank page -
