Problems solved by technology

However, due to the complex distribution and functions of facial muscles, myoelectric signals and nerve signals are numerous and interfere with each other. In many cases, myoelectric and nerve signals are not necessarily consistent with muscle or facial movements, resulting in uncertainty in signal extraction. And the uncontrollability of electrical stimulation, therefore, there is still a lot of research to continue to improve this method before clinical application

Embodiment 1

[0036] Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a system for micromechanical treatment of facial paralysis, the system comprising:

[0037] A signal collector embedded in the face of the healthy side for collecting movement signals of the healthy side; the signal collector includes a first sensor 11 embedded in the frontal muscle of the healthy side, and a second sensor 12 in the orbicularis oculi muscle , the second sensor is an angle sensor, the third sensor 13 in the upper lip muscle and the fourth sensor 14 in the laughing muscle; the first sensor, the third sensor and the fourth sensor are all displacement sensors that can detect the distance of muscle contraction; Micromachines embedded or partially embedded in the affected side; the micromachines include the first strip microdynamic system 21 embedded in the frontalis muscle of the affected side, and the angular microdynamic system 22 in the orbicularis oculi muscle , the second strip-shaped micro-dynamic system i...

Embodiment 2

[0043] Embodiment 2 of the present invention provides a micromechanical system for treating facial paralysis. The difference between this system and Embodiment 1 is that the terminal processor 3 is connected to the micromechanical device through microelectrodes; the signal collector includes a camera assembly, The camera assembly includes glasses and a camera mounted on the glasses.

Embodiment 3

[0045] Embodiment 3 of the present invention provides a system for micromechanical treatment of facial paralysis. The difference between this system and Embodiment 1 is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the terminal processor 3 includes:

[0046] The signal receiving module 32 is used to receive the data collected by the signal collector;

[0047] The first processing module 33 is used to process the collected data, and judge the muscle position of the healthy side face corresponding to the data, and at the same time, according to the change of the data, send movement and corresponding information to the micromachine embedded in the corresponding muscle of the affected side face. Exercise instructions.

[0048] The invention provides a micromechanical treatment system for facial paralysis. The system is aimed at unilateral facial paralysis, and the facial movement of the healthy side is normal. The terminal processor monitors the normal movement of the healthy side and sends an...

Abstract

The present invention provides a micromechanical treatment system for facial paralysis, the system comprising: a signal collector embedded in the healthy side for collecting movement signals of the healthy side; a micromachine embedded or partially embedded in the affected side; The terminal processor is used to receive and process the data collected by the signal collector and at the same time issue instructions to the micromachine; the system is aimed at unilateral facial paralysis, and the healthy side facial movement is normal, and the terminal processor monitors the normal facial movement of the healthy side, Send commands to the micromachine to pull the affected side to move, thereby ensuring the normal movement of the affected side.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of facial paralysis treatment, in particular to a micromechanical treatment system for facial paralysis. Background technique [0002] Facial expressions are the mirror of the soul and an indispensable element in human communication. Damage to the facial nerve and facial nerve center due to various reasons will cause permanent facial paralysis, seriously affecting the life of the patient. This includes the functional impairment caused by the patient's facial paralysis and the psychological trauma caused by it. [0003] The methods used in clinical treatment of facial paralysis are generally nerve transplantation, neuromuscular transplantation, upper eyelid weight, static hovering and other methods. These treatments have poor precision and unsatisfactory results, some may at best restore muscle tone, but the facial expression remains very mask-like with no voluntary movement, and dynamic muscle hovering only allows r...
