Abstract

Provided in one embodiment of the present invention is a calibration device for an oral scanner, comprising: a casing in which an oral scanner body is coupled to an open upper part; a rotational part rotatably provided with respect to the casing; a reflector part arranged on the central axis of an optical device in the oral scanner body; and a pattern plate part facing the optical device through the reflector part, wherein the pattern plate part is linked with the rotation of the rotational part and rotates in place, and the reflector part moves in a straight line with respect to the oral scanner body.

Claims (38)

1 . A calibration device for an oral scanner, comprising:

a casing to which an oral scanner body is coupled to an open upper portion thereof;

a rotating unit rotatably provided with respect to the casing;

a reflector unit disposed on a central axis of an optical device in the oral scanner body; and

a pattern plate unit facing the optical device through the reflector unit,

wherein in conjunction with rotation of the rotating unit, the pattern plate unit rotates in place and the reflector unit rectilinearly reciprocates with respect to the oral scanner body.

2 . The calibration device of claim 1 , wherein the rotating unit includes:

a rotating shaft extending in a longitudinal direction;

a first coupling portion provided on one side of the rotating shaft and coupled to the pattern plate unit; and

a second coupling portion provided on the other side of the rotating shaft and coupled to the reflector unit.

3 . The calibration device of claim 2 , wherein a handle is provided at one end of the rotating shaft.

4 . The calibration device of claim 2 , wherein the pattern plate unit includes:

a pattern plate; and

a first interlocking portion integrally formed with the pattern plate and engaged with the first coupling portion, and

the first interlocking portion rotates by rotation of the first coupling portion.

5 . The calibration device of claim 4 , wherein the reflector unit includes:

a reflector;

a support portion configured to rotatably support the reflector; and

a second interlocking portion rotatably coupled to the support portion and engaged with the second coupling portion, and

in conjunction with rotation of the second coupling portion, the second interlocking portion rotates and the reflector is rectilinearly reciprocated.

6 . The calibration device of claim 5 , wherein the reflector unit further includes a rotation preventing member configured to prevent the rotation of the reflector with respect to the second interlocking portion.

7 . The calibration device of claim 6 , wherein the reflector moves along an inclined surface of the rotation preventing member when the reflector rectilinearly reciprocates so that an inclination angle is adjusted.

8 . The calibration device of claim 7 , wherein at least one of one end and the other end of the inclined surface is formed with a stepped portion configured to restrict movement of the reflector.

9 . The calibration device of claim 2 , wherein the pattern plate unit includes:

a pattern plate; and

an interlocking portion integrally formed with the pattern plate and engaged with the first coupling portion, and

the interlocking portion rotates by rotation of the first coupling portion.

10 . The calibration device of claim 9 , wherein the reflector unit includes:

a plurality of reflectors; and

a support portion configured to support the reflectors and engaged with the second coupling portion, and

the support portion rectilinearly reciprocates by rotation of the second coupling portion.

11 . The calibration device of claim 10 , wherein the reflector includes a first reflector and a second reflector,

the first reflector is disposed to form an angle of 45 degrees on a central axis of the optical device,

the second reflector is disposed to form an angle of 45 degrees on a longitudinal axis of the pattern plate unit, and

the first reflector and the second reflector are disposed in mirror symmetry to reflect a direction of light emitted from the optical device 180 degrees.

12 . The calibration device of claim 10 , wherein the reflector unit further includes a guide portion coupled to a rail formed in the casing.

13 . The calibration device of claim 12 , wherein the reflector unit rectilinearly reciprocates along the rail when the second coupling portion is rotated.

14 . The calibration device of claim 13 , wherein at least one of one end and the other end of the rail is formed with a stepped portion configured to restrict movement of the reflector unit.
