Lung function instruments are commonly used to assess lung health, helping doctors diagnose chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, pulmonary fibrosis and other diseases. During the lung function test, using an excitation filter mouthpiece is an important device to ensure test accuracy and safety.

[0003] Traditional mouthpiece structure is relatively simple, often assembled by multiple components, but the combination of multiple components may affect air tightness due to insecure connection, and fixing and adjustment are required during use, increasing the difficulty of use, and the multi-component structure is difficult to clean thoroughly, which can easily lead to cross-infection risk. SUMMARY

[0006] In the above scheme, the integrally designed tube includes a filter portion, a main tube portion, a mouthpiece portion, and a connecting tube, thereby improving air tightness and eliminating the need for multi-component assembly, making it more convenient to use. The larger diameter of the filter portion than the main tube portion reduces gas resistance and increases the volume of the filter assembly. The filter assembly is used to achieve efficient filtration of the excitation filter mouthpiece, effectively blocking bacteria, viruses, and other pollutants, ensuring clean air intake for patients. By measuring the composition and flow rate of exhaled gas at the connecting tube position, the lung function of the patient can be evaluated.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The inspiratory filter bite mouth and the impulse oscillation lung function instrument according to the present application will be described in further detail below with reference to specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

[0031] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 A preferred embodiment of the inspiratory filter bite mouth according to the present application comprises a one-piece tube body 1, which comprises a filter part 11, a main tube part 12, a bite mouth part 13, and a connecting tube 14. The filter part 11 is located at one end of the main tube part 12, and the bite mouth part 13 is located at the other end of the main tube part 12. The filter part 11 has a larger diameter than the main tube part 12. The filter part 11 is connected with a filter assembly 2. The connecting tube 14 is used to discharge exhaled gas. The one-piece tube body 1 comprises the filter part 11, the main tube part 12, the bite mouth part 13, and the connecting tube 14, which avoids air leakage, insufficient pulling force, and other problems caused by assembly, thereby improving air tightness, eliminating the need for multi-component assembly, making the device easier to use, greatly simplifying the installation and replacement process of the device, taking into account the needs of multiple patients, supporting quick replacement and simple installation operation, reducing the number of operation steps and time, improving operation efficiency, and avoiding inaccurate test and treatment results caused by component connection problems. At the same time, the manufacturing cost and procurement cost of the components are reduced, making the hospital more economical and efficient when maintaining and using the device.

[0032] The larger diameter of filter section 11 than main section 12 reduces gas resistance, ensuring that the gas resistance does not exceed 150 PA at a flow rate of 30 L. This also increases the volume filtered by filter assembly 2. Filter assembly 2 is used to achieve efficient filtration through the excitation filter mouthpiece, effectively blocking contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, and particulates, ensuring the cleanliness of the patient's inhaled air. By measuring the composition and flow rate of exhaled air at connecting tube 14, the patient's lung function can be assessed. The excitation filter mouthpiece ensures minimal resistance and maximum stability in the airflow path when the pulse oscillatory spirometer measures respiratory impedance. This optimized design reduces data errors caused by airflow fluctuations, ensuring the reliability and accuracy of test results.

[0033] In the above embodiment, as shown in the figure, in some embodiments, the filter portion 11 is truncated cone-shaped. The truncated cone-shaped filter portion 11 is more convenient for integrally forming the tube body 1 and enables the filter portion 11 to have a larger diameter than the main tube portion 12.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the filter assembly 2 includes a filter cotton 22 and a limiting cylinder 21. A step is formed on the inner side of the filter portion 11, and the filter cotton 22 abuts against the step. The limiting cylinder 21 is inserted into the filter portion 11 and abuts against the filter cotton 22. The step formed on the inner side of the filter portion 11 is used to limit the filter cotton 22. In this way, inserting the limiting cylinder 21 into the filter portion 11 can fix the filter cotton 22 in the filter portion 11. Since the diameter of the filter portion 11 is increased, the filter cotton 22 can also use a larger diameter filter cotton 22, which increases the effective filtering area of ​​the filter cotton 22, reduces resistance, and improves the quality of the filter cotton 22, so that resistance and mist leakage are well balanced. Under the condition of the same resistance, a higher gram weight filter cotton 22 can be used. Here, the filter cotton 22 is at least 200 grams, so as to reduce the occurrence of mist leakage, reduce drug waste and reduce cross infection.

[0035] Specifically, appropriate filter cotton 22 can be selected according to actual requirements, or multiple layers of filter materials and antibacterial coatings can be used to effectively block pollutants such as bacteria, viruses, and particles, ensuring that the gas inhaled by the patient is clean.

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in some embodiments, the limiting cylinder 21 is provided with a first through hole 3 in the middle, and the limiting cylinder 21 includes a cylinder body 211 and a clamping portion 212. The cylinder body 211 is arranged in the filter portion 11, and the clamping portion 212 is clamped with the outer side wall of the filter portion 11. The first through hole 3 in the middle of the limiting cylinder 21 allows gas to flow, ensuring that air can effectively pass through the filter cotton 22 during breathing, thereby improving the filtering effect and removing pollutants or pathogens in the air. The clamping of the clamping portion 212 with the outer side wall of the filter portion 11 can enhance the stability of the entire structure, ensure that the limiting cylinder 21 does not loosen or shift during use, and thus maintain its effective filtering performance.

[0037] As shown in some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown in some embodiments, the connecting pipe 14 includes a cylindrical connecting interface 141, and the connecting pipe 14 is provided with a second through hole 4 communicating with the main pipe portion 12. The connecting interface 141 can connect the connecting pipe 14 with an instrument for testing lung function, and gas is discharged from the second through hole 4, so that the lung capacity, ventilation volume, airflow velocity and other respiratory parameters of the patient can be accurately measured, helping doctors to evaluate the lung health status.

[0038] As shown in some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown in some embodiments, the mouthpiece 13 is flat and oval, and the end of the mouthpiece 13 is provided with two symmetrical protruding structures 131. The flat and oval mouthpiece 13 is more in line with the shape of the lips, reduces the pressure point during long-term use, and provides a more comfortable user experience. The protruding structure 131 allows the user to better fix the mouthpiece 13 when biting, ensuring that it does not loosen or fall off during use.
