Electric reciprocation generator for reamer and electric reciprocation generator attached with reamer

A reciprocation generator for a dental reamer comprising:

• a housing;
• a pin eccentrically provided at a tip of a rotating shaft, the pin and shaft collectively provided as a reciprocation generation unit housed within the housing;
• a vibration tube disposed within the housing and interfacing with the reciprocation generation unit;
• and
• a reamer including an insertion part and a needlelike part, wherein
• the vibration tube having a distal end with a needle-through hole sized to allow the needlelike part to fit therethrough and a rear end part with a hole as a reamer mounting opening,
• the pin of the reciprocation generation unit is engaged with a pin hole provided in a side surface part of the vibration tube,
• the reamer mounting opening is selectively closeable with a screw cap retained therein,
• the vibration tube is pivotable with a longitudinal direction of the reamer as an axis by the pin hole being provided in a range equal to or more than a pivoting diameter of the pin and less than an entire circumference along an outer peripheral part of the vibration tube,
• the needle-through hole has a smaller diameter than the insertion part of the reamer, and
• when the reamer is inserted from the reamer mounting opening at the rear end part of the vibration tube toward the distal end of the vibration tube and housed in the vibration tube in a state wherein the vibration tube is disposed within the housing, the distal end of the insertion part of the reamer abuts the distal end of the vibration tube in an axial direction, the rear end of the insertion part of the reamer abuts the screw cap in the axial direction, thereby fixing the reamer inside the vibration tube, and the needlelike part protrudes from the distal end part of the vibration tube through the needle-through hole.
