Abstract:
The invention relates to a contra-angle for implantology or surgery with a head for holding and rotating an instrument about its longitudinal axis, and a handpiece containing, in a non-limiting manner, a connection providing the connection with an external motor drive, and a reducing assembly with an output gear. The contra-angle is formed of removable subassemblies, and principally of a subassembly called the intermediate support, including an input gear meshing with the output gear of the reducing assembly and an end gear mounted on the same rotating shaft and inside a hollow cylindrical body. The intermediate support is mounted so as to slide freely along an axis inside a central part of a head body and enabling positioning in the head and rotational driving of a removable head cartridge, when all the subassemblies are mounted together to form the contra-angle.
Abstract:
A driven appliance, such as a contra-angle handpiece for surgical instruments, in particular for dental surgery, includes a handle, a neck and a head for receiving an instrument. The handle and the neck of the contra-angle handpiece each receive a drive shaft, respectively, an input shaft and an output shaft, which are linked to each other by a gear train. The input shaft and the output shaft are slidingly mounted in their respective bodies, which forms a sheath for the two shafts. The shafts are maintained and supported on stops arranged on the corresponding sheathes through a single elastic element which is housed in the bend linking the handle to the neck.
Abstract:
A canal preparation device comprising a support (1), a treatment instrument (2) equipped with a shank (3), with a contra-angle (4) provided with a head (5), characterized in that the shank (3) of the canal instrument (2) is furnished with a rotational-drive means (6) and in that the head (5) of the contra-angle is provided at its base with a snap-fastening means collaborating with the shank (3) of the rotational-drive means (6) in such a way that, simply by pushing, with the shank (3) of the rotational-drive means (6) engaged in the head, the shank (3) and the head (5) are snap-fastened.
