[0014] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0015] See also Figure 1 The utility model proposes a vest for expectoration, comprising a vest body 1 and a control host 2. The vest body 1 is front-opening, and four shoulder straps are movably provided on the vest body 1. Each shoulder strap is provided with a vibrator 3. The vibrators 3 on each shoulder strap are horizontally arranged and symmetrically distributed along the human spine. Each vibrator 3 is connected to the control host 2 through an electric wire, and the control host 2 is provided with a main switch for controlling each shoulder strap.

[0016] A zipper is vertically arranged at the middle of the front side of the vest body 1 to realize an openable and closable design for putting on and taking off the entire vest.

[0017] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2, the vibrator 3 is arranged at the back of the human body corresponding to the strap, and the fastener 4 is arranged at the center of the front chest of the human body. The fasteners 4 are arranged at both ends of the strap, and the fasteners 4 connect the strap and the vest body 1. The strap and the vest body 1 are detachably connected through the fasteners 4. The fasteners 4 include male and female buckles that are paired with each other. This is the prior art and will not be described here. The male buckle and the female buckle correspond to each other and cooperate with each other. The male buckle is located at one end of the strap, and the female buckle is located at the position corresponding to the strap on the vest body 1. The two ends of the strap are connected to the vest body 1 through the male and female buckles to fit the patient's body. When the male buckle and the female buckle do not cooperate, the strap is detached from the vest body 1, and the strap can be connected or detached from the vest body 1 through the fasteners 4. In this way, a certain strap can be detached according to the patient's own situation to avoid the strap squeezing the drainage tube or wound on the affected side.

[0018] The end of the male buckle away from the female buckle is fixedly connected to the shoulder strap through an adjustable rope, and the end of the female buckle away from the male buckle is fixedly connected to the vest body 1 through an adjustable rope. The adjustable rope adjusts the degree of closeness between the shoulder strap and the vest body 1 to avoid squeezing the drainage tube and the wound. The adjustable rope is a prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0019] The shoulder strap located on the back side of the human body is fixedly connected to the vest body 1 at a position corresponding to the human spine, ensuring that the shoulder strap will not be lost when the shoulder strap is detached from the vest body 1 through the fastener 4.

[0020] The four straps extending vertically downward are strap I5, strap II6, strap III7 and strap IV8. Strap I5 and strap II6 are each provided with two vibrators 3, and strap III7 and strap IV8 are each provided with four vibrators 3.

[0021] The control host 2 also includes a pressure regulator and a time regulator.

[0022] The control host 2 controls two sputum discharge sequences: normal sputum discharge and non-normal sputum discharge. The normal sputum discharge sequence is: strap IV8 → strap III7 → strap II6 → strap I5; the non-normal sputum discharge sequence is: strap IV8 → strap III7 → strap I5.

[0023] There is a drainage tube on the second strap on the left side, so the vibrator 3 on the second strap on the left side is turned off and does not work.

[0024] During the positive sequence expectoration operation, first start the vibrator 3 of the back strap III 7 and the back strap IV 8 away from the human spine, followed by the vibrator 3 of the back strap III 7 and the back strap IV 8 close to the human spine, then the vibrator 3 of the back strap II 6, and finally the vibrator 3 of the back strap I 5, following the expectoration method from bottom to top and from outside to inside to effectively expectorate.

[0025] When the patient wears a drainage tube, the drainage tube is located on the left side of strap Ⅱ6. During non-sequential expectoration work, the vibrator 3 of strap Ⅲ7 and strap Ⅳ8 away from the human spine is started first, followed by the vibrator 3 of strap Ⅲ7 and strap Ⅳ8 close to the human spine, then the vibrator 3 on the right side of strap Ⅱ6, and finally the vibrator 3 of strap Ⅰ5. The vibrator 3 on the left side of strap Ⅱ6 does not work.

[0026] The order of expectoration can also be adjusted according to the patient's own situation: when the patient has a wound or a drainage tube in the chest cavity, the vibrator 3 at the wound on the affected side can be turned off, and the healthy side can still maintain the correct expectoration method; or the position of the strap can be adjusted to avoid the drainage tube to prevent the drainage tube from folding and twisting.
