Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of respiratory training, and in particular to a respiratory training device after lung surgery. Background Art

[0002] During the rehabilitation process after lung surgery, respiratory function needs to be trained. There are many existing training methods, one of which is pursed lip breathing. The training method is to inhale through the nasal cavity, shrink the lips into a whistle shape after the inhalation, and then slowly exhale through the pursed lips. This is beneficial to the exhalation of residual air volume in the lungs, improves lung conditions, and improves breathing efficiency. However, in the actual training process, due to the patient's unfamiliarity with pursed lip breathing, the flow and duration of exhalation, as well as the size of the exhalation opening formed by pursed lips, cannot be well maintained, resulting in poor breathing training effects. Therefore, we provide a post-pulmonary surgery breathing training device to assist breathing training and quantify the exhalation diameter after pursing the lips, thereby reducing variables that affect the breathing effect. Summary of the invention

[0011] The support section is arranged in a V shape, and a plurality of endpoints of the V-shaped support section surround and form a shrunken lip opening, and the size of the shrunken lip opening is adjusted synchronously with the adjustment of the air inlet.

[0012] The mounting ears are used for rotationally connecting with the fixing pipe, and the fixing pipe is provided with corresponding bases corresponding to the mounting ears on the supporting members.

[0013] The support member also includes a force-bearing section fixedly connected to the mounting ear, and an installation position for installing the positioning member is formed between the force-bearing section and the fixing tube;

[0014] The positioning piece is an elastic structure.

[0015] The adjusting member is an annular structure sleeved on the outside of the supporting member, and the angle between the supporting member and the fixed pipe is changed by the movement of the adjusting member on the supporting member.

[0016] The first skin is in a tubular shape, one end of the first skin is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixed tube, and the other end of the first skin is folded outward after passing through the air intake passage to be fixedly connected to the adjusting member.

[0017] The adjusting member can be rolled inside and outside.

[0036] Embodiment 1:

[0037] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 , the breathing training device after lung surgery of the present invention comprises a fixing tube 1 and an adjusting mouthpiece 2;

[0038] The regulating nozzle 2 includes a supporting member 21, a positioning member 22 and an adjusting member 23. The supporting members 21 are rotatably connected to the edge of the fixed pipe 1 and form a tubular air inlet passage 3 in front of the starting end of the fixed pipe 1.

[0039] The air inlet channel 3 includes a fixed air inlet 31 and an adjustable air inlet 32. The fixed air inlet 31 is the connecting end of the support 21 and the fixed pipe 1. The adjustable air inlet 32 ​​is a ring formed by the other end of the support 21. The size of the adjustable air inlet 32 ​​is adjusted according to the rotation angle of the support 21 on the fixed pipe 1.

[0040] The positioning member 22 is installed between the fixed pipe 1 and the support member 21, and is used to position the initial state of the air intake passage 3 formed by the support member 21;

[0041] The adjusting member 23 is installed on the supporting member 21 and is used to adjust the angle between the supporting member 21 and the fixed pipe 1;

[0042] The support member 21 is covered with a first skin 24 , and the first skin 24 is deformed as the support member 21 rotates.

[0043] The support member 21 includes a mounting ear 211 and a support section 212 . The support section 212 is V-shaped. End points of the V-shaped support sections 212 surround to form a shrunken lip 33 . The size of the shrunken lip 33 is adjusted synchronously with the air inlet 32 ​​.

[0044] The mounting ears 211 are used for rotationally connecting with the fixed pipe 1 , and the fixed pipe 1 is provided with corresponding bases 4 corresponding to the mounting ears 211 on the supporting members 21 .

[0045] The support member 21 further includes a force-bearing section 213 fixedly connected to the mounting ear 211, and an installation position 5 for installing the positioning member 22 is formed between the force-bearing section 213 and the fixing pipe 1;

[0046] The positioning member 22 is an elastic structure.

[0047] The adjusting member 23 is an annular structure sleeved on the outside of the supporting member 21 . The angle between the supporting member 21 and the fixed pipe 1 is changed by the movement of the adjusting member 23 on the supporting member 21 .

[0048] The first skin 24 is tubular, one end of the first skin 24 is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixed tube 1, and the other end of the first skin 24 is folded outward after passing through the air inlet passage 3 to be fixedly connected to the adjusting member 23;

[0049] Both ends of the first skin 24 are connected to the adjusting member 23 and the fixing tube 1 respectively, that is, when the supporting member 21 rotates, it will not be restricted by the first skin 24, and because the first skin 24 is tubular, the air intake passage 3 can be sealed.

[0050] Working principle:

[0051] By moving the adjusting member 23 on the supporting section 212 on the supporting member 21, the supporting section 212 carrying the mounting ear 211 can be rotated with the base 4 of the fixed tube 1 as the rotation point, so that the overall angle of the supporting member 21 can be changed. When the angle of the supporting member 21 is changed, the adjusting air inlet 32 ​​and the shrinking lip 33 in the air inlet channel 3 will both be reduced, that is, the shrinking lip 33 and the adjusting air inlet 32 ​​in the device can be adjusted quantified. When the patient wears the device, the lips are located at the shrinking lip 33, which can effectively quantify the exhalation port formed by the lips, reduce the variables that affect the breathing effect, and make the training effect better.

[0052] This embodiment can be used directly as an auxiliary device for pursed lip breathing training, or the device can replace the exhalation structure in other breathing training devices, such as connecting it to a three-ball respirator for use. When the device is used in conjunction with other breathing training devices, the overall combined device can also perform pursed lip breathing training without affecting the original advantages.

[0053] See also Figure 3 , further, the adjusting member 23 can be rolled inside and outside, such as the adjusting member 23 is made of rubber material;

[0054] The movement of the adjusting member 23 causes the supporting member 21 to exert force on the positioning member 22, and the force exerted is proportional to the angle change of the supporting member 21, that is, the smaller the diameter of the shrinking lip 33, the greater the force that the adjusting member 23 needs to exert on the supporting member 21;

[0055] When the adjusting member 23 is made of rubber material, the adjusting member 23 can be rolled inward and outward; therefore, when the adjusting member 23 changes the diameter of the adjusting air inlet 32 ​​by moving its position on the supporting member 21, the adjusting member 23 can be moved downward by rolling outward. At this time, the adjusting member 23 can roll up the first skin 24 connected to it when it rolls downward. When the first skin 24 is rolled up, the diameter of the adjusting member 23 becomes larger, and at the same time, an adjusting member 23 with a larger cross-sectional diameter is formed together with the first skin 24. The larger the diameter of the adjusting member 23, the greater the pressure on the supporting member 21.

[0056] That is, the smaller the diameter of the shrink lip 33 is, the greater the force that the adjusting member 23 can automatically apply to the supporting member 21 to balance the angle of the supporting member 21; and the adjusting member 23 changes the force applied to the supporting member 21 by rolling up the first skin 24, and can also have the function of rolling up the first skin 24, thereby ensuring that there is no excess first skin 24 located in the air intake passage 3, thereby reducing the possibility of wrinkles on the first skin 24 in the air intake passage 3.

[0057] Embodiment 2:

[0058] See also Figure 4 As a variation of the first embodiment, the adjusting member 23 is a hard ring, and a tooth groove 23 a for positioning the adjusting member 23 is provided on the supporting section 212 .

[0059] When in use, the support member 21 can be rotated inward first to reduce the size of the adjusting air inlet 32, loosening the support of the support member 21 on the adjusting member 23, and then the adjusting member 23 can be located in the new tooth groove 23a as needed, so as to change the size of the adjusting air inlet 32 ​​and the shrinking lip 33 and then position the support member 21 to maintain the size of the shrinking lip 33.

[0060] The adjustment member 23 arranged in this way can make the support member 21 more stable and prevent the adjustment member 23 from sliding on the support member 21 and affecting the positioning of the support member 21 .

[0061] Embodiment three:

[0062] See also Figure 5 As a variation of the first or second embodiment, the support section 212 is arranged in a straight line.

[0063] When the support section 212 is a straight line, the device cannot be used for pursed lip breathing, but the function of adjusting the diameter of the air inlet 32 ​​is retained. Therefore, the device can also replace the exhalation structure of the existing device, so that it can adapt to the differences in the size of the exhalation structure held in the mouth by different people by changing the size of the air inlet 32.

[0064] See also Figure 6 Furthermore, in Examples 1 to 3, a second skin 6 is provided on the surface of the fixed tube 1, and the end of the second skin 6 is fixedly connected to the surface of the support member 21; this arrangement can avoid exposure of structures such as the support member 21 and the positioning member 22, and plays a role in facilitating cleaning.

[0065] The above is only an embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent substitution, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
