Apparatus for testing dental occlusion of a person under test using two occlusion force sensors

摘要

An apparatus for testing dental occlusion of a person under test includes a dental occlusion sensing unit that includes two occlusion force sensors mounted fixedly and respectively to two mounting ends of a connecting tube and operable to sense an occlusion force applied on each of top and bottom faces thereof so as to output an electrical signal corresponding to the occlusion force sensed thereby, and two transmission lines connected electrically to the occlusion force sensors and a processing unit and extending through the connecting tube for transmitting the electrical signals from the occlusion force sensors to the processing unit. The processing unit is operable to generate occlusion force information in relation to the electrical signals from the occlusion force sensors and to be displayed on a display unit.
