Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of braces cleaning, and in particular relates to an oral braces cleaning device and method. Background technique [0002] Braces are tools used to straighten teeth and play a vital role in orthodontics. The surface of the braces will be stained during the production process, so it needs to be cleaned before going off the assembly line for packaging. The traditional cleaning method is to place the braces in an ultrasonic cleaner for ultrasonic cleaning. However, because the braces are light in texture, they are easy to float out of the water after being put into the water, resulting in insufficient cleaning. The Chinese utility model patent with the application number CN201620132575.3 shows a braces cleaning device, which includes a box body, a transmission mechanism and a cleaning device. The transmission mechanism is located inside the box body, including a conveyor belt and a drive shaft. Downward moveme...
