AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing oral training devices for premature infants cannot effectively and specifically adjust muscle strength, are prone to missing positions during training, and may cause adverse reactions such as vomiting. They are also complicated to operate and increase the burden on families.

Method used

Design an oral training device for premature infants, comprising a heating module, a massage module, a rotation module, and a telescopic module. Combined with a pressure sensor and a communication module, it realizes automated temperature regulation, vibration, rotation, and telescopic movement of the massage head, simulating finger movements and avoiding stimulation and omissions.

Benefits of technology

It improves the professionalism and safety of training, reduces operational difficulty, ensures training effectiveness, reduces adverse reactions, adapts to individual differences, and optimizes training trajectories.

Abstract

The present application relates to the technical field of oral training, in particular to a premature infant oral training device. The device comprises a massage module, the massage module comprises a massage head and a vibration sub-module, the vibration sub-module can drive the massage head to generate vibration effect; a heating module is used for collecting the oral temperature of the premature infant, and the massage head is heated according to the oral temperature of the premature infant; a rotating module is used for driving the massage head to rotate in the oral cavity of the premature infant; and a telescopic module is used for controlling the massage head to stretch and retract. The technical scheme can more effectively train the strength of each muscle group in the oral cavity, so as to improve the coordination among sucking, swallowing and breathing.
