Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of swallowing training, in particular to a swallowing training device for stroke patients. Background Art

[0002] At present, there is no medical device specifically for swallowing disorder training in clinical practice. For a long time, doctors have used more traditional methods to train patients' swallowing functions, such as repeated saliva swallowing and tongue training, to prevent disuse atrophy of the oral and pharyngeal muscles. Swallowing training mainly includes bite training and sucking training, but there is currently no training device specifically for such patients. Rubber sticks and rice cakes are often used as substitutes, but they have poor universality and extremely low hygiene and safety.

[0003] According to the published patent 201920042222.8, a swallowing training device for stroke patients includes a hollow cylindrical handle, a bite training end and a sucking training end respectively arranged at both ends of the handle; the bite training end includes a bite piece, whose end is movably connected to the connecting head at the left end of the handle; the sucking training end includes a sucking piece, whose end is movably connected to the connecting head at the right end of the handle; the bite piece includes a variety of specifications, which can be simultaneously accommodated in the hollow accommodating cavity of the handle. The utility model provides a swallowing training device for stroke patients. By setting a variety of bite pieces and sucking pieces, not only can the appropriate bite pieces be selected according to different patients or different training intensities, but also the training effect is greatly improved. In the process of realizing the utility model, the inventor found that at least the following problems in the prior art have not been solved. Although the purpose of double training of oral bite and sucking can be achieved by setting bite pieces and sucking pieces at both ends of the handle, swallowing training mainly includes bite training and sucking training. However, there is no training device dedicated to such patients at present. Rubber sticks and rice cakes are often used as substitutes. However, their universality is poor and the hygiene and safety are extremely low. However, in the process of use, the traditional swallowing training device for stroke patients only sets a variety of bite pieces and sucking pieces for training, and cannot directly train the muscles of the swallowing pharynx, resulting in the swallowing training effect is not very good, and it takes a long time. Moreover, the use of a variety of bite pieces and sucking pieces cannot effectively simulate the swallowing action of the pharynx, resulting in less pharyngeal muscle driving force. For this reason, it is necessary to design a new technical solution to solve it. Utility Model Content

Moreover, the use of a variety of bite pieces and sucking pieces cannot effectively simulate the swallowing action of the pharynx, resulting in a technical problem that the pharyngeal muscle driving force is less.

[0005] In order to achieve the purpose of the utility model, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: designing a swallowing training device for stroke patients, including a device cylinder, and also including:

Moreover, the connecting rope can limit the rubber ball to prevent the rubber ball from falling. At the same time, an air pump is arranged inside the connecting disk, and when the rubber ball enters the pharynx, the air pump can repeatedly inflate and inhale the rubber ball to make the rubber ball expand and shrink, which can actively make the pharyngeal muscles contract and exercise, thereby improving the pharyngeal swallowing training effect. The utility model solves the problem that traditional swallowing training devices for stroke patients only have a variety of biting pieces and sucking pieces for training, but cannot directly exercise the swallowing muscles of the pharynx, resulting in a poor swallowing training effect and a long time.
