[0007] As a further improvement of the utility model, the one-way valve is inserted into the air inlet of the airbag or pre-buried in the air inlet of the airbag.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the beneficial effects that:

[0009] The earplug airbag and the airbag are connected, the air inlet amount in the earplug airbag can be manually controlled by extruding or loosening the airbag, and then the adhesion of the earplug airbag to the ear canal of different sizes can be controlled. The utility model can be applied to patients with different size ear canals. The use effect is basically the same when the earplug airbag and the airbag are not damaged, and the demand can be met. At the same time, the connection mode of the balloon earplug can realize quick disassembly, so as to meet the demand of cleaning and quick replacement of components. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
