Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of lip muscle training equipment, and more specifically to a lip muscle training device and method. Background Technology
[0002] Facial muscles can influence bone growth and remodeling at their attachment sites through their functional activities, and also participate in the balance of forces on the inner and outer sides of the dental arch, thus playing a crucial role in the development of the dentofacial structure. Mouth breathing in children is a serious oral dysfunction in today's society. Children with mouth breathing often have problems such as narrow dental arches and open bite, affecting their facial aesthetics. Mouth breathing is divided into pathological mouth breathing and habitual mouth breathing. For children with habitual mouth breathing and incomplete lip closure, active lip muscle training is needed to increase lip muscle strength and improve insufficient lip tension.
[0003] There are three main traditional methods for lip muscle training. The first involves placing a piece of paper between the upper and lower lips and manually pulling on it. The child uses their lips to resist the pull and hold the paper in place, thus training lip closure. The second involves attaching a button to an elastic thread and placing the button in the vestibule of the labial surface of the incisors. The child or parent manually pulls on the thread, and the child tries to hold the button in their mouth with their lips. The third method, which is currently the most commonly used in clinical practice, uses an existing lip muscle trainer. The trainer is placed in the vestibule, and the parent or child manually pulls on it, causing the lip muscles to actively close and resist the pull, thus increasing lip muscle strength. However, these existing training methods are relatively simple and lack standardized guidance for the training movements and quantitative recording of the training process. Since lip muscle function training is primarily performed on children and adolescents, whose motivation is often low, clinical practice often results in slow or poor effectiveness of the training. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a lip muscle training device and method. The device includes a guide plate with multiple guide grooves. A lip baffle pulls a slider within the guide grooves via a flexible cable. The guide grooves are positioned differently to guide the trainee's lip muscles to actively close and pull the slider in different directions, thus providing standardized guidance for the training movements. Simultaneously, a counting component is used to collect the number of times the slider moves into position within the guide grooves, achieving quantitative recording of the training process.
[0005] The first objective of this invention is to provide a lip muscle training device, which adopts the following solution:
[0006] include:
[0007] The guide plate has a central hole, and multiple guide grooves are formed around the central hole and upward, with one end of each guide groove connected to the central hole.
[0008] The slider is slidably mounted in the guide groove;
[0009] The counting component acquires and displays the number of times the slider enters the set position in the guide groove.
[0010] The lip baffle is connected to the slider via a flexible cable and can pull the slider to slide along the guide groove.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a base plate, which is spaced apart from the guide plate and connected by a support member. One side of the base plate faces the guide plate, and the other side is a mounting surface for attaching to an external support surface.
[0012] Furthermore, the mounting surface of the base plate is magnetic, and the side of the base plate facing the guide plate can apply a damping effect to the slider.
[0013] Furthermore, the end of the guide groove away from the central hole extends radially along the central hole, and a trigger part of the counting component is provided on the slider movement path between the two ends of the same guide groove to receive the trigger when the slider reaches the corresponding position of the trigger part for counting.
[0014] Furthermore, the counting component also includes a sound-emitting part, a display part, and a controller. The triggering part, the sound-emitting part, and the display part are respectively connected to the controller. The triggering part sends the collected triggering information to the controller. The controller is used to output the counting information to the display and to control the sound-emitting part to emit sound when the triggering part is triggered.
[0015] Furthermore, a damping effect is formed between the slider and the guide plate to impede the movement of the slider relative to the guide plate.
[0016] Furthermore, the slider is equipped with a magnet, and the guide plate is made of ferromagnetic material. The magnetic attraction between the slider and the guide plate creates a damping effect.
[0017] And / or,
[0018] The slider is provided with a contraction part, which is embedded in the guide groove. The frictional resistance between the contraction part and the guide groove forms a damping effect.
[0019] Furthermore, adjacent guide grooves are distributed at an angle to each other.
[0020] A second objective of the present invention is to provide a method of operating the lip muscle training device as described in the first objective, comprising:
[0021] The guide plate is fixed to the external support surface, and the slider slides in conjunction with the guide groove;
[0022] The lip baffle is pulled by the trainee and moves the slider along the guide groove via a flexible cable. The slider can pass through the central hole and enter different guide grooves under the traction of the flexible cable.
[0023] When the slider moves to the set position in the guide groove, the counting component is triggered to count.
[0024] Furthermore, when the accumulated trigger amount of the counting component reaches the set amount, a prompt message is output.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this invention are:
[0026] (1) To address the current problems of poor guidance and difficulty in quantitative recording of lip muscle training, a guide plate with multiple guide grooves is set up. The lip baffle pulls the slider in the guide groove through a flexible cable. The relative positions of the multiple guide grooves are different, which guides the trainee to actively close the lip muscles and pull the slider in different directions to achieve the standardization of training movements. At the same time, the counting component is used to collect the number of times the slider moves into position in the guide groove to achieve quantitative recording of the training process.
[0027] (2) By using an adsorption base plate, the entire device can be attached to an external plane. When the adsorption base plate is a magnetic plate, it can also create resistance by adsorbing the slider, providing traction damping when the slider moves, thus achieving the training effect. By changing the size of the adsorbed element on the slider that matches the adsorption base plate, the magnitude of the resistance can be adjusted to obtain a reasonable resistance for lip muscle training and improve the training effect.
[0028] (3) A decorative plate is detachably installed on the slider, which can assist the guiding function of the guide groove.
[0029] (4) The counting component is equipped with a display section, which can intuitively display the number of training sessions. At the same time, the position of the trigger section is set so that the counting is triggered when the slider reaches the specified position, thus ensuring the training effect.

[0038] Example 1
[0039] In a typical embodiment of the present invention, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, a lip muscle training device is presented.
[0040] This lip muscle training device can be used for lip muscle training in children, eliminating the need for manual pulling by the child or parents. Resistance is applied by limiting the movement of the slider 4 and guide plate 1, and the movement of the slider 4 is guided by guide groove 3, thus guiding the direction of pulling during training. A counting component has been added to record lip muscle training data, improving the convenience and enjoyment of the training.
[0041] The lip muscle training device will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0042] See Figure 1 The lip muscle training device mainly includes a guide plate 1, a slider 4, a counting component, and a lip baffle 6. The guide plate 1 has multiple guide grooves 3, one end of which is connected to the central hole in the center of the guide plate 1, so that the multiple guide grooves 3 are arranged circumferentially along the central hole. The slider 4 is slidably installed in the guide groove 3. After sliding out of one guide groove 3, the slider 4 can pass through the central hole and enter another guide groove 3. The counting component records the number of times the slider 4 enters the set position in the guide groove 3, thereby recording the number of training sessions. The lip baffle 6 is connected to the slider 4 through a flexible cable 5 and can be placed in the vestibular sulcus. The active closure of the lip muscles and head movement are used to pull the flexible cable 5 to move the slider 4 along the guide groove 3. The traction force is applied to the lip muscles. The child increases the strength of the lip muscles by actively closing the lip muscles and resisting the traction.
[0043] In this embodiment, the guide plate 1 can be a circular plate, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown, a central hole is provided at the center point of the circular plate, and multiple guide grooves 3 are distributed at intervals around the central hole; the guide plate 1 can also be a semi-circular plate, such as... Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the central hole is located at the chord center of the semi-circular plate, and multiple guide grooves 3 are distributed sequentially and at intervals on the guide plate 1 along the ring upward from the central hole.
[0044] It is understandable that both circular and semi-circular plates can be used as guide plates 1 to meet training requirements. Multiple guide grooves 3 with different directions are formed on the guide plate 1 to guide the slider 4 to slide into different guide grooves 3. When driving the slider 4 to slide in different guide grooves 3, the child needs to move his head towards different angles so that the reaction force of the traction is applied to the lip muscle from different angles, thereby achieving the purpose of multi-angle training of lip muscle strength and ensuring training effect.
[0045] Taking a guide plate 1 with a semi-circular plate as an example, the radius of the guide plate 1 can be 15cm, the length of a single guide groove 3 can be set to 7cm, and there are 5 guide grooves 3 on the guide plate 1. When the guide plate 1 is arranged vertically, the adjacent guide grooves 3 are distributed at an angle. The directions of the 5 guide grooves 3 relative to the center hole are left, upper left, upper, upper right and right, respectively. Their directions are the trajectory of the slider 4.
[0046] Taking guide plate 1, which uses a circular plate, as an example, Figures 1-4 As shown, the radius of the guide plate 1 can be 15cm, the length of a single guide groove 3 can be set to 7cm, and there are 8 guide grooves 3 on the guide plate 1. When the guide plate 1 is arranged vertically, the adjacent guide grooves 3 are distributed at an angle. The directions of the 8 guide grooves 3 relative to the center hole are left, upper left, upper, upper right, right, lower right, lower and lower left, and their directions are the trajectory of the slider 4.
[0047] The slider 4 can slide on the preset guide groove 3, ensuring the standardization of the pulling direction during lip muscle function training and reducing the effect deviation caused by individual differences in training operation. At the same time, the movement path of the slider 4 and the guide groove 3 can be adjusted according to needs. For example, an adjustable stop can be set on the guide groove 3 to constrain the distance between the maximum movement position of the slider 4 and the center hole, adapting to the training needs of different groups of people.
[0048] It should be noted that a trigger part of the counting component is provided on the moving path of the slider 4 between the two ends of the same guide groove 3, so as to receive the trigger when the slider 4 reaches the corresponding position of the trigger part and count. When the maximum moving path of the slider 4 is limited, the position of the corresponding trigger part is also adjusted. The trigger part can be installed on an adjustable stop block, so that the trigger counting is achieved when the slider 4 moves to the end of the guide groove 3, and the trigger can be effectively activated before and after adjustment according to the position of the adjustable stop block.
[0049] The counting component also includes a sound-emitting part, a display part, and a controller. The triggering part, the sound-emitting part, and the display part are connected to the controller respectively. The triggering part sends the collected triggering information to the controller. The controller is used to output the counting information to the display and to control the sound-emitting part to emit sound when the triggering part is triggered.
[0050] The slider 4 can move along multiple guide grooves 3 that connect to the central hole. A recognition element is provided at the central hole position. The slider 4 needs to pass through the recognition element at the central hole position before it can trigger counting at a specified position in the guide groove 3, thereby ensuring the running path length of the slider 4.
[0051] In this embodiment, the identification element can be a photoelectric sensor. The photoelectric sensor can determine whether an object has passed by observing whether the light between the transmitter and receiver is blocked. A light-transmitting hole matching the identification element is designed at the center of the slider 4 to ensure that light can pass smoothly through the hole when the slider 4 passes through the identification element. A microswitch or limit switch can be selected as the trigger for the counter. When the slider 4 reaches a designated position in the guide groove 3, such as the end of the guide groove 3 or reaching the adjustable stop, the counter is triggered to perform the counting function. The identification element, trigger, and controller are connected. When the slider 4 passes through the identification element and reaches the designated position, the counter is triggered and transmits a signal to the control system for counting.
[0052] Specifically:
[0053] A photoelectric sensor is installed at the center hole to detect whether slider 4 has passed through;
[0054] A light-transmitting hole is designed at the center hole of slider 4 to ensure that the photoelectric sensor can work properly;
[0055] Install a micro switch or limit switch at a designated position in guide groove 3 as a counter;
[0056] Connect photoelectric sensors, micro switches, or limit switches to the controller, which can be a PLC or a microcontroller, etc.
[0057] When slider 4 passes through the photoelectric sensor and moves to the designated position, the micro switch or limit switch is triggered, transmitting a signal to the control system for counting.
[0058] For the counting process, the following scheme is adopted:
[0059] Initialize the counter to 0;
[0060] When slider 4 starts to move, the photoelectric sensor begins to detect whether slider 4 has passed through;
[0061] When slider 4 passes through the photoelectric sensor, if slider 4 has not reached the designated position of guide groove 3 at this time, the position of slider 4 continues to be detected.
[0062] When slider 4 reaches the designated position of guide groove 3, micro switch or limit switch is triggered;
[0063] Check if the trigger signal is a valid signal (e.g., rule out false triggering);
[0064] If the trigger signal is valid, increment the counter by 1;
[0065] Repeat the above steps until slider 4 stops moving;
[0066] Output the current count value as the result.
[0067] To implement the function of triggering a count when slider 4 reaches a specified position in the running path length, in practical applications, the control logic may need to be appropriately adjusted and optimized according to specific requirements.
[0068] The counting component is equipped with a display section that can intuitively display the number of training sessions. At the same time, the position of the trigger section is set so that counting is triggered when slider 4 reaches the specified position, thus ensuring the training effect.
[0069] Of course, the sound-emitting part can be a buzzer, a loudspeaker or other components, and the display part can be a display screen, a digital tube or other components. The sound-emitting part and the display part are arranged on the guide plate 1 to avoid the guide groove 3.
[0070] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a base plate 2, which is spaced apart from the guide plate 1 and connected by a support member. One side of the base plate 2 faces the guide plate 1, and the other side is a mounting surface for attaching to an external support surface. The mounting surface of the base plate 2 is magnetic, and the side of the base plate 2 facing the guide plate 1 can apply a damping effect to the slider 4.
[0071] In this embodiment, an adsorption base plate 2 is used, which can attach the entire device to an external plane. Suction cups, hooks and other structures can be set on the mounting surface to make it easy to fix to an external fixed structure, such as a security door or a smooth wall.
[0072] When the base plate 2 is a magnetic plate, the attraction of the base plate 2 to the slider 4 can also create resistance, providing traction damping when the slider 4 moves, thus achieving a training effect. By changing the size of the attracted element on the slider 4 that matches the base plate 2, the magnitude of the resistance can be adjusted to obtain reasonable resistance for lip muscle training and improve the training effect.
[0073] The guide groove 3 can be a straight line, with the end of the guide groove 3 away from the central hole extending radially along the central hole; of course, in other optional embodiments, the guide groove 3 can also be a curved line, a broken line, or other structural forms.
[0074] The slider 4 and the guide plate 1 form a damping effect that hinders the movement of the slider 4 relative to the guide plate 1. The required traction force during the traction process can be changed by adjusting the damping effect, thereby adjusting the reaction force on the lip muscle and adapting to the needs of different training stages and different training groups.
[0075] In this embodiment, the slider 4 is equipped with a magnet, and the guide plate 1 is a ferromagnetic material plate. The magnetic attraction between the slider 4 and the guide plate 1 creates a damping effect. The damping effect can be adjusted by changing the size of the magnet or by replacing the slider 4 with one equipped with a different magnet.
[0076] Alternatively, the slider 4 can be equipped with a contraction section, which is embedded in the guide groove 3. The frictional resistance between the contraction section and the guide groove 3 creates a damping effect. By replacing the slider 4, the surface friction coefficient of the contraction section matching the guide groove 3 can be changed, thereby adjusting the frictional resistance.
[0077] The slider 4 adopts a barbell-shaped structure with the diameters at both ends being larger than the diameter in the middle. One end is located inside the guide groove 3, and the other end is located outside the guide groove 3. The slider 4 is prevented from coming out of the guide groove 3 and the central hole during use by matching the groove with the small diameter contraction part in the middle.
[0078] The lip baffle 6 is shaped to fit the inner side of the vestibular sulcus of the upper and lower lips, with a pre-drilled hole in the middle for the flexible cable 5 to pass through. Similarly, the slider 4 also has a pre-drilled hole for the flexible cable 5 to pass through, thus establishing a traction connection between the lip baffle 6 and the slider 4. The flexible cable 5 can be a flexible rope or the like.
[0079] In this embodiment, a decorative panel is detachably mounted on the slider 4. The decorative panel can be in the shape of animals, vehicles, etc., and can assist the guiding function of the guide groove 3. LEDs or other lighting elements can also be installed in the guide groove 3 to output guiding signals in the form of flowing lights, or to indicate that training has been completed by keeping the lights constantly on.
[0080] Example 2
[0081] In another typical embodiment of the present invention, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, a working method of a lip muscle training device is presented.
[0082] Using the lip muscle training device as described in Example 1, the following steps are included:
[0083] Guide plate 1 is fixed to the external support surface, and slider 4 slides in conjunction with guide groove 3;
[0084] The lip baffle 6 receives the pulling force of the trainee and drives the slider 4 to move along the guide groove 3 through the flexible cable 5. The slider 4 can pass through the central hole and enter different guide grooves 3 under the traction of the flexible cable 5.
[0085] When slider 4 moves to the set position in guide groove 3, the counting component is triggered to count.
[0086] Specifically, the base plate 2 of the lip muscle training device is glued to a suitable location such as a door panel, so that the center of the guide plate 1 is level with the midpoint of the upper and lower central incisors when the child's cusps intersect. The child is about an arm's length away from the plane of the guide plate 1, keeping the head and ear plane parallel to the ground, with the head and body in a straight line;
[0087] Place the lip baffle 6 of the lip muscle training device into the vestibule sulcus on the inner side of the upper and lower lips, connect the slider 4 to the lip baffle 6 through the flexible cable 5, slide the slider 4 into the guide groove 3 of the guide plate 1, and pull the flexible cable 5 to make it taut.
[0088] The child uses a lip baffle 6, which is wrapped inside the lip, to pull the slider 4 through the guide groove 3 in five directions: left, right, upper left, upper right, and up. Each direction is repeated five times, ensuring that each movement starts from the center hole and ends at the end of the guide groove 3, where the count is recorded. The display shows the number of counts.
[0089] When the child completes the training by going back and forth 5 times in one direction, the LED light in the corresponding guide groove 3 will light up, indicating that the training of that track has been completed. LED and other lighting elements are set in the guide groove 3 to output guidance signals in the form of flowing lights, and to indicate that the training has been completed by keeping the lights on.
[0090] When the child completes 5 training sessions in each of the five directions, music will be played in the vocalization section to indicate that the training session is complete.
[0091] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.

The damping action of the magnetic attraction force between the sliding block and the guiding plate can block the movement of the sliding block relative to the guiding plate. The damping action of the magnetic attraction force between the sliding block and the guiding plate can block the movement of the sliding block relative to the guiding plate. The damping action of the frictional resistance between the contraction part and the guiding groove can block the movement of the sliding block relative to the guiding plate. The adjacent guiding grooves are distributed in an angle.
