Definitions
- the present invention still further includes a dental apparatus including a body connected to a pressurized fluid source and a pressurized liquid source.
- the body includes an enclosed container to hold abrasive particles, the container selectably entraining abrasive particles in the pressurized fluid.
- a first valve is configured to selectively control the flow of pressurized fluid from the pressurized fluid source and pressurized liquid from the pressurized liquid source to the body.
- a second valve is configured to selectively control the flow of pressurized fluid through the body and the flow of a pressurized liquid through the body.
- a tip is in fluid communication with a first line and the body for delivering the entrained pressurized fluid to the tip.
- At least a portion of the second conduit extends inside the first conduit adjacent the substantially closed end of the first conduit and in fluid communication with the first conduit, the second conduit extending away from the substantially closed end of the first conduit.
- the second conduit includes a channel extending across the boundary of the container in fluid communication with the first line.
- the pressurized fluid source is connected to the passageway to provide pressurized fluid to the first conduit. Pressurized fluid flowing through the first conduit into the container passes the restriction, creating a reduced pressure adjacent the at least one opening to draw abrasive particles from the interior of the container into the first conduit. Abrasive particles are entrained in the pressurized fluid flowing in the first conduit toward the substantially closed end, an amount of the particle-laden pressurized fluid flowing through the at least one apertures to the interior of the container.
- Figure 3 is a perspective view of an embodiment of a hand piece and tip of the present invention.
- valve 102 is normally in a closed position when the valve button 15 in cradle 14 is activated, i.e., when the hand piece 16 is installed in the cradle 14. Removing the hand piece 16 from the cradle 14 places the valve button 15 in a non-activated position, which opens valve 102, permitting pressurized air to flow past valve 102 along path 130 to path 132 to encounter a selector valve 106.
