181 | Sweep-arm bender for forming orthodontic arches | US609288 | 1984-05-11 | US4566305A | 1986-01-28 | Arthur L. Wool |
A device for forming orthodontic arches from straight wire blanks comprises a die having a cylindrical surface with multiple wire-receiving grooves situated in planes perpendicular to the die axis. A clamp temporarily applies a clamping force to the wire blank, thereby firmly holding a portion of the wire blank in the groove of the die. The bender has two sweep arms, each pivoted on the die axis. A slide is provided on each of the sweep arms, and is constrained for movement toward and away from the die axis. Each slide carries a circular cylindrical roller mounted in bearings on the slide, for rotation about a roller axis parallel to the die axis. An adjustable toggle mechanism on each arm temporarily locks its roller in a position such that the outer roller surface presses the wire blank into one of the wire-receiving grooves before the arm begins to sweep about the die axis, and throughout the sweeping movement of the arm. Each of the arms is pivotable from a position in which its roller is located adjacent to the clamp to a position beyond the position in which its roller is directly opposite to the clamp. A pivoted positioning block insures symmetry in the arch by engaging one end of the blank and thereby insuring that the exact center of the blank is tangent to the die. The block pivots out of the way to provide clearance for arm movement. The die grooves can be configured to pretorque the arches automatically in the forming operation. | ||||||
182 | Orthodontic bracket and method of retaining a wire therein | US138219 | 1980-04-07 | US4268249A | 1981-05-19 | Rolf Forster |
The bracket comprises flange means adapted to be secured to a tooth of a patient, a bearing member having a neck portion connected to said flange means and a through hole on an axis which is transversely spaced from said flange means, and a rotary catch member mounted in said through hole for rotation on said axis and defining with said neck portion and said flange means a channel which is disposed on one side of said bearing member and open opposite to said neck portion and adapted to receive a wire so that the latter is engageable with said flange means. The rotary catch member is formed with actuating means which are peripherally spaced from said channel and engageable by an implement for rotating the rotary catch member. The rotary catch member is rotatable on said axis to a retaining position and in said retaining position is adapted to retain a wire in said channel. A U-shaped member is detachably fitted over said neck portion and has a crosspiece extending in said channel. The channel is adapted to receive a square-section wire in engagement with said U-shaped member. The rotary catch member is adapted in said retaining position to retain said square-section wire in said channel and in engagement with said U-shaped member. | ||||||
