Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and particularly relates to a mouth pad capable of preventing the tongue from falling back. Background Art

[0002] Glossoplegia refers to the phenomenon that the tongue falls backward in the mouth when the patient is lying on his back. This usually blocks the pharynx, causing difficulty breathing and even upper airway obstruction. This is especially true during surgery when the patient is under anesthesia or is not awake after anesthesia. At this time, the muscles in the mouth are relaxed and glossoplegia is very likely to occur. For example, surgeries such as gastroscopy, bronchoscopy, and endotracheal intubation require the patient to be anesthetized clinically. During this process, glossoplegia is very likely to occur, causing airway obstruction in the patient, seriously affecting the normal progress of the surgery and examination. In addition, patients will bite unconsciously under anesthesia, and the teeth are subjected to a large force. Currently, bite guards are commonly used to prevent the teeth from biting. However, bite guards can only hold the teeth open and cannot protect them.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to design a mouth pad that can effectively solve the above problems and defects and can prevent the tongue from falling back. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model proposes a mouth pad that can prevent tongue from falling back, which can effectively avoid the tongue from falling back during surgery and the airway obstruction caused by it, without affecting the normal progress of surgery or examination, and at the same time protects the teeth and avoids tooth damage caused by occlusion.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is:

[0006] The utility model provides a mouth pad capable of preventing the tongue from falling back, comprising:

[0007] The pad body is in an open arc shape adapted to the teeth, and a stopper extending downward is provided on the outer side of the pad body;

[0008] A pressure plate is arranged at the inner center of the pad body and extends outward, and the end of the pressure plate is bent to match the tongue root.

[0009] Preferably, the thickness of the pad gradually decreases from the central area to the two end areas, and / or

[0010] The thickness of the inner side of the pad body is greater than the thickness of the outer side of the pad body.

[0011] Preferably, the blocking sleeve is arranged at the center of the outer side of the cushion body and extends along the cushion body to both ends, and the height of the blocking sleeve gradually decreases from the central area to the two end areas.

[0012] Preferably, a pipe-bearing hole is provided at the center of the cushion body, which passes through the cushion body from the outside to the inside.

[0013] Preferably, a lower placement opening adapted to the lower lip frenulum is provided at the center of the baffle, and a plurality of outer protrusions arranged at intervals and located on the outside of the baffle are provided around the lower placement opening.

[0014] Preferably, the pad body and the pressure plate are connected in an integrated structure.

[0015] Preferably, the oral pad capable of preventing the tongue from falling back provided by the present invention further comprises a support pad, wherein the support pad is in an open arc shape adapted to the teeth, and a sheath extending upward is provided on the outer side thereof.

[0016] Preferably, the support pad is connected to the pad body in an integrated structure.

[0017] Preferably, the support pad and the pad body are movably connected via a flexible connector, and both ends of the flexible connector are fixedly connected to the support pad and the pad body respectively.

[0018] Preferably, the flexible connector is connected to the support pad and the pad body in an integrated structure.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and effects:

[0020] (1) The cushion body is an open arc and the pressure plate is bent at the end. The cushion body can protect the teeth and prevent deformation, loss and other damage caused by tooth occlusion. The end of the pressure plate is bent downward and pressed against the back of the tongue root, which can press the tongue downward, thereby effectively preventing the tongue from falling back.

[0021] (2) A stopper is provided at the center of the outer side of the pad body, which abuts against the outer side of the lower teeth and plays a role in locking and limiting, thereby preventing the pad body and the pressure plate from sliding off and improving the overall wearing stability of the oral pad;

[0022] (3) The thickness of the cushion gradually decreases from the center area to the two end areas, so that it can better adapt to the tooth structure in the oral cavity and facilitate the support and opening of the oral cavity, thereby facilitating the insertion and removal of intubations such as gastroscopy tubes or endotracheal tubes, ensuring the normal progress of surgery and examinations;

[0023] (4) The inner thickness of the pad is greater than the outer thickness, so that the entire mouth pad will not slip off due to the natural bite of the teeth. The outer stopper can improve the wearing stability of the pad and avoid damage to the teeth caused by slipping. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] like Figure 1~Figure 2 As shown, the utility model provides an oral pad that can prevent tongue from falling back, which includes a pad body 1 and a pressure plate 3 connected in an integrated structure. The pad body 1 and the pressure plate 3 are both made of medical soft silicone material and can be worn orally.

[0033] The pad body 1 is in an open arc shape that matches the teeth, so that when the teeth are closed, both the upper and lower teeth are under pressure through the pad body 1, thereby protecting the teeth and preventing the patient from unconsciously biting under anesthesia, causing damage to the teeth such as deformation and loss.

[0034] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a stopper sleeve 2 extending downward is provided on the outer side of the pad body 1, and the outer surface of the stopper sleeve 2 is flush with the outer surface of the pad body 1. The stopper sleeve 2 extends inward to a certain thickness. When in use, it is attached to the outer surface of the lower alveolar to play a blocking and limiting role, preventing the oral pad from sliding into the oral cavity as a whole.

[0035] Furthermore, the baffle 2 is arranged at the outer center of the pad body 1 and extends to both ends along the pad body 1. The height of the baffle 2 gradually decreases from the central area to the two end areas, so that the baffle 2 fits the lower teeth and lower alveolar of the oral cavity.

[0036] The retaining sleeve 2 is connected to the pad body 1 in an integrated structure.

[0037] like Figure 1As shown, the pressure plate 3 is arranged at the inner center of the pad body 1 and extends outward. The end of the pressure plate 3 is bent to match the root of the tongue, that is, the end of the pressure plate 3 is bent downward, and its bending arc is matched with the position of the root of the tongue in the oral cavity, so that it presses against the root of the tongue, pressing the tongue as a whole downward, effectively avoiding the phenomenon of tongue falling back.

[0038] For further reference, Figure 2 As shown, the thickness of the pad body 1 gradually decreases from the center to the ends. That is, the pad body 1 is thicker in the center and gradually thinner at the ends, allowing the upper and lower teeth to be in a stretched state. The thickness of the inner side of the pad body 1 is greater than that of the outer side of the pad body 1. This prevents the pad body 1 from slipping outward when the teeth are in occlusion. Combined with the limiting and fixing function of the retaining sleeve 2, the overall oral pad is stable when worn, preventing the pad body 1 from slipping inward or outward due to occlusion.

[0039] A tube-bearing hole 4 is provided at the center of the cushion body 1 and passes through the cushion body 1 from the outside to the inside. The tube-bearing hole 4 can be used to insert a gastroscope tube or an endotracheal tube without affecting the normal progress of the operation or examination.

[0040] Furthermore, a lower placement opening 5 adapted to the lower lip frenulum is provided at the center of the baffle 2 to facilitate the placement of the lower lip frenulum. A number of outer protrusions 6 arranged at intervals and located on the outside of the baffle 2 are provided around the lower placement opening 5. The outer protrusions 6 can increase the friction with the inner tissue of the lower lip to prevent the mouth pad from slipping and falling off.

[0041] Example 2:

[0042] For Example 2 of the present utility model, Figure 3 Note that, descriptions of parts that are the same as those in Example 1 are omitted and are given the same reference numerals.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, the oral pad for preventing tongue from falling back according to the present invention further comprises a support pad 7 , which is in an open arc shape adapted to the teeth, and a sheath 8 extending upward is provided on the outer side of the support pad 7 .

[0044] It should be noted that the specific structure of the support pad 7 and the sheath 8 can refer to the specific structure of the pad body 1 and the blocking sleeve 2 in the above-mentioned embodiment 1, except that the support pad 7 is used to be worn on the upper teeth and the pad body 1 is used to be worn on the lower teeth. The structure of the support pad 7 and the sheath 8 will not be described in detail here.

[0045] Understandably, the reference Figure 3 As shown, the oral pad for preventing tongue posterior prolapse in this embodiment includes a split support pad 7 and a pad body 1, that is, the pad body 1 and the support pad 7 are independent structures. During use, the support pad 7 is worn on the upper teeth, and the pad body 1 is worn on the lower teeth.

[0046] Example 3:

[0047] For Example 3 of the present utility model, Figure 4 Note that, descriptions of parts that are the same as those in Example 2 are omitted and are given the same reference numerals.

[0048] like Figure 4 As shown, the present invention relates to an oral pad that can prevent the tongue from falling back, wherein the support pad 7 is connected to the pad body 1 in an integrated structure, and the retaining sleeve 2 of the pad body 1 is connected to the pad body 1 in an integrated structure, and the sheath 8 of the support pad 7 is also connected to the support pad 7 in an integrated structure. During use, there is no need to wear the pad body 1 and the support pad 7 separately, thereby improving the convenience of wearing and use.

[0049] Example 4:

[0050] For Example 4 of the present utility model, Figure 5 Note that, descriptions of parts that are the same as those in Example 2 are omitted and are given the same reference numerals.

[0051] like Figure 5 As shown, the present invention relates to an oral pad that can prevent the tongue from falling back, wherein the support pad 7 and the pad body 1 are movably connected by a flexible connector 9, and the two ends of the flexible connector 9 are respectively fixedly connected to the support pad 7 and the pad body 1, that is, the two ends of the support pad 7 and the two ends of the pad body 1 are respectively connected by two flexible connectors 9, so that the upper support pad 7 and the lower pad body 1 can move relative to each other.

[0052] Furthermore, the flexible connector 9 is made of medical soft silicone material.

[0053] Optionally, in some embodiments, the flexible connector 9 is connected to the support pad 7 and the pad body 1 in an integrated structure.

[0054] In summary, the mouth pad that can prevent tongue from falling back provided by the utility model can effectively avoid the tongue from falling back during surgery and the airway obstruction caused by it, does not affect the normal progress of surgery or examination, and at the same time protects the teeth and avoids tooth damage caused by occlusion.

[0055] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the present invention.
