Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of breathing training technology, specifically a dual-function breathing trainer. Background Technology

[0002] Breathing trainers are widely used in postoperative rehabilitation, adjunctive treatment of chronic respiratory diseases, and pulmonary function training. Existing breathing trainers typically incorporate resistance structures in the respiratory tract, allowing users to overcome resistance during inhalation or exhalation, thereby strengthening respiratory muscles and improving lung ventilation.

[0003] However, most existing breathing trainers can only train in one direction of inhalation or exhalation. If inhalation and exhalation training are required in sequence, different equipment often needs to be changed, which is inconvenient and the training continuity is poor.

[0004] In addition, existing breathing trainers have low visualization and poor feedback. Summary of the Invention

[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a dual-function breathing trainer that can meet the needs of both inhalation and exhalation training and has the advantages of good visual feedback.

[0006] (II) Technical Solution To achieve the aforementioned goal of satisfying both inhalation and exhalation training needs and providing good visual feedback, this invention provides the following technical solution: a dual-function breathing trainer, comprising: The bottom box has a trachea connector at the first end for connecting a breathing tube and an air vent at the second end for air intake or exhaust. Several ball tubes are arranged perpendicular to the bottom box and connected to the inner cavity of the bottom box; A float, which moves up and down inside a bulb tube; Top plate, installed on top of several ball tubes, is used to seal the top opening of the ball tubes.

[0009] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a vent hole is provided on the outer wall of the top of the ball tube.

[0010] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a connecting cylinder is fixedly installed on the top of the bottom box, and the connecting cylinder is connected to the inner cavity; The bottom of the ball cylinder is fixedly equipped with an insertion tube for interference fitting into the connecting cylinder.

[0011] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a semi-circular upper baffle is fixedly installed inside the insertion tube, and a semi-circular lower baffle is fixedly installed inside the connecting cylinder.

[0012] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a side cover is detachably connected to the vent of the bottom box, and a rotating plate is rotatably mounted on the side cover. The side cover and the rotating plate are provided with several sets of through holes one and through holes two respectively.

[0013] As a further embodiment of the present invention, a connecting ring is fixedly installed on the side of the side cover facing away from the rotating plate, and the connecting ring is screwed into the vent of the bottom box.

[0014] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the rotating plate protrudes to one side of the side cover to form a limiting protrusion, the limiting protrusion is movably engaged in the limiting groove, and a plurality of limiting grooves are provided, which are opened along the rotation direction of the limiting protrusion.

[0022] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4 This invention discloses a dual-function breathing trainer, which includes a base box 1. The first end of the base box 1 has a trachea connector 2 for connecting a breathing tube, and the second end has an air inlet for inhaling or exhaling air. In use, the user blows or inhales through the mask at the end of the breathing tube, thereby achieving targeted training of the respiratory muscle groups. like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the ball cylinder 4 is arranged perpendicular to the bottom box 1 and is connected to the inner cavity of the bottom box 1. Multiple ball cylinders 4 can be arranged side by side above the bottom box 1, and floats 6 are installed inside the ball cylinder 4, which can move up and down. The floats 6 can move back and forth vertically inside the ball cylinder 4 under the action of gravity and gas force. In addition, a top plate 7 is installed at the top of the ball tube 4 to close the top opening of the ball tube 4, thereby preventing the float 6 from falling out of the ball tube 4 and limiting the maximum travel of the float 6.

[0024] When performing exhalation training, such as Figure 2 As shown, the user blows air into the bottom box 1 through the breathing tube. As the air is expelled through the air inlet, it also enters the bulb 4 and blows the float 6 upward inside the bulb 4. The height of the float 6 can intuitively reflect the strength and duration of the exhalation. When inhalation training is needed, invert the entire device so that it presents... Figure 3 In this state, the user inhales through the breathing tube. As the air enters through the air inlet, the negative pressure also lifts the float 6, causing the float 6 to move upward inside the ball tube 4. This allows inhalation and exhalation training to share the same structure, and the mode can be switched simply by changing the device's posture.

[0025] To more intuitively observe the state of the float 6, preferably, the tube 4 is made of a transparent material, such as transparent plastic or glass, which facilitates visual feedback during training, thereby improving the initiative, compliance and interest of training.

[0026] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, a vent hole 9 is also provided on the outer wall at the top of the ball tube 4 so that the gas above the float 6 can freely enter and exit, and prevent the float 6 from getting stuck.

[0027] In addition, such as Figure 2 As shown, a filter element 10 is also movably filled in the inner cavity of the bottom box 1. The filter element 10 can filter the inhaled or exhaled gas, which improves the hygiene of the device and is especially suitable for repeated use in rehabilitation training scenarios.

[0028] In this embodiment, the entire top plate 7 is detachable and installable. Specifically, as shown in the example below... Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the top plate 7 is fixedly installed with an outer ring 8 for nesting at the top of the ball cylinder 4. Thus, by interfering with the top of the ball cylinder 4, the position of the top plate 7 can be fixed, which not only seals the ball cylinder 4, but also facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the entire device to remove the float 6, thereby facilitating cleaning, replacement or maintenance. Example

[0029] Based on Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, the entire spherical tube 4 is also detachable and installable. Specifically, as shown in the example below... Figure 4 and Figure 5 A connecting cylinder 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the bottom box 1. The connecting cylinder 3 is connected to the inner cavity. A insertion tube 5 for interference fitting into the connecting cylinder 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the ball cylinder 4. Thus, by inserting the insertion tube 5 into the connecting cylinder 3, the ball cylinder 4 can be installed, and the ball cylinder 4 can be disassembled, added, replaced or adjusted as needed.

[0030] In this embodiment, the diameters of the multiple ball tubes 4 can be set to different sizes. Ball tubes 4 with different diameters correspond to different motion characteristics of the floats 6, thereby enabling visual feedback with different sensitivities or different training intensities. In addition, such as Figure 5As shown, a semi-circular upper baffle 11 is fixedly installed inside the insertion tube 5, and a semi-circular lower baffle 12 is fixedly installed inside the connecting tube 3. Thus, by rotating the ball tube 4, the upper baffle 11 and the lower baffle 12 can be adjusted to see if they overlap, thereby controlling whether the insertion tube 5 is connected, and thus determining whether the ball tube 4 is "activated". This enables selective activation or deactivation of each ball tube 4, avoiding unnecessary gas disturbance and improving the flexibility of training configuration. Example

[0031] Based on Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2, in this embodiment, a side cover 13 is detachably connected to the vent of the bottom box 1, and a rotating plate 15 is rotatably mounted on the side cover 13, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the side cover 13 and the rotating plate 15 have three sets of through holes 16 and 17 respectively. By adjusting the angle of the rotating plate 15, the overlap between through hole 17 and through hole 16 is controlled, thereby controlling the ventilation volume of the air vent. The ventilation volume is controlled, thus realizing the adjustment of breathing resistance, so that users with different needs can choose the appropriate training intensity according to their needs.

[0032] Preferably, a connecting ring 14 is fixedly installed on the side of the side cover 13 facing away from the rotating plate 15. The connecting ring 14 is screwed into the vent of the bottom box 1, thereby enabling quick assembly and disassembly of the side cover 13.

[0033] In addition, a limiting protrusion is formed on the side of the rotating plate 15 facing the side cover 13. The limiting protrusion is movably locked in the limiting groove. Several limiting grooves are opened along the rotation direction of the limiting protrusion. The locking of the limiting protrusion in the limiting groove plays the role of positioning the rotation of the rotating plate 15, forming a graded adjustment to avoid misoperation. like Figure 6 A knob 18 is also fixedly installed on the rotating plate 15 to facilitate the rotation of the rotating plate 15.

[0034] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
