PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an easy-to-use dental occlusal force measuring apparatus capable of measuring an occlusal force with low dental burden in biting.SOLUTION: A dental occlusal force measuring apparatus includes a measuring device and an occlusal force meter. The occlusal force meter includes a protective cover covering an occlusal force meter body. The occlusal force meter body includes a sensor substrate that is provided with connection terminals and a ground terminal at one end and a circular pressure sensing part at the other end, the connection terminals and the pressure sensing part being connected with an electrode wire, the sensor substrate being laminated with a resin sheet. The occlusal force meter body further includes a shield film layered on both sides of the resin-laminated sensor substrate, the shield film being connected to the ground terminal provided between the connection terminals. The pressure sensing part is layered with a circular protection plate. The shield film is layered on its outer surface with a reinforcing plate. The occlusal force meter body is integrated with a socket of a connection code with a heat shrinkable cover. When the occlusal force meter is used, it is preferable to use a detachable disposable cover.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】 取り扱い易く、噛む際の歯の負担が少なく、正確に測定できる歯科用咬合力測定装置を提供する。【解決手段】歯科用咬合力測定装置であって、測定器と咬合力計を備えており、咬合力計は、咬合力計本体を被覆する保護カバーとからなり、咬合力計本体は、一端部に接続用端子とアース端子を設け、他端部に円形の感圧部を設け、前記接続用端子と感圧部とを電極線により接続してなる樹脂シートをラミネートして形成したセンサー基板の両面側にシールド膜を積層し、前記シールド膜は接続端子の間に設けたアース端子に接続されており、感圧部には円形の保護板を積層し、前記シールド膜の外表面に補強板を積層してなり、熱収縮性カバーによって接続コードのソケットとを一体化させてなる。咬合力計を使用するときには、着脱自在な使い捨てカバーを用いることが望ましい。【選択図】 図2
