Abstract

This invention discloses a lip-pressing orbicularis oris muscle trainer, comprising a first pressing plate and a second pressing plate, the rear ends of which are stacked and fixed to form a fixed end, while the front ends form an openable pressing end. A gap maintainer is inserted between the pressing plates, and the pressing resistance of the pressing end is adjusted by changing its relative distance or thickness to the fixed end. In use, the user presses their lips together to press the pressing end, overcoming resistance to train the orbicularis oris muscle. It can be used in combination with various training methods such as resistance testing, continuous pressing, and intermittent pressing and releasing. It has advantages such as simple construction, low cost, disposable use, and adjustable training resistance and methods.
