TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to snore stopper technical field, especially in the cooperation mechanism for relieving sleep airway obstruction device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The device for relieving sleep airway obstruction is mainly used for treating obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAHS). This sleep disorder shows that the upper respiratory tract is partially or completely blocked during sleep, resulting in apnea and hypopnea. This kind of device stretches the lower jaw of the patient forward by mechanical force, and keeps the tongue in the forward position, thereby enlarging the upper respiratory tract area, reducing airflow resistance, and preventing respiratory obstruction caused by soft tissue collapse.

[0003] However, although some existing devices for relieving sleep airway obstruction can solve the problem of sleep breathing, the retaining buckle will gradually wear out in repeated use, thereby causing the connection between the retaining buckle and the connecting rod to become loose, and even possibly falling off. This not only affects the service life of the device, but also may reduce the treatment effect and increase the discomfort of the patient. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0004] The utility model aims at providing a cooperation mechanism for relieving sleep airway obstruction device, which can maintain stable connection between the retaining buckle and the connecting rod after the retaining buckle is worn out, and ensure the reliability and effectiveness of the device.

[0011] According to some embodiments, the limiting cap and the retaining buckle column are provided with grooves.

[0012] According to some embodiments, the groove can be in a cross structure.

[0013] According to some embodiments, the other end of the retaining buckle column is provided with a clamping plate.

[0016] According to some embodiments, the connecting rod body is sleeved on the retaining column, and the limiting cap is sleeved on the connecting rod body.

[0017] According to some embodiments, the diameter of the sleeve hole is consistent with the diameter of the retaining column.

[0018] Advantages:

[0019] 1. By sleeving the connecting rod body on the retaining column, and under the limiting action of the limiting cap, not only can the connecting rod body be prevented from falling off the retaining column, but also when the limiting cap is elastically deformed, the connecting rod body can be detachably sleeved on the retaining column, so that the connection stability between the connecting rod body and the retaining buckle is ensured, even if the retaining buckle is worn to a certain extent after long-term use, the elastic deformation characteristics of the limiting cap can still ensure the close connection between the connecting rod body and the retaining column, so that the function of the whole device is not affected.

[0029] Combined with Figure 1 And Figure 2 As shown in the figure, a cooperation mechanism for relieving sleep airway obstruction device, including retaining clamping column 1, limit cap 2 and connecting rod body 3.

[0030] Limit cap 2 is arranged at one end of retaining clamping column 1;Connecting rod body 3 is sleeved on retaining clamping column 1.Specifically, by sleeving connecting rod body 3 on retaining clamping column 1, and under the limiting action of limit cap 2, not only can prevent connecting rod body 3 from falling off from retaining clamping column 1, at the same time, when limit cap 2 is elastically deformed, it is convenient to detachably sleeve connecting rod body 3 on retaining clamping column 1, so that under the design action, the connection stability between connecting rod body 3 and retaining buckle is ensured, even if retaining buckle appears a certain degree of wear after long time use, the elastic deformation characteristics of limit cap 2 can still ensure the close connection between connecting rod body 3 and retaining clamping column 1, so as to ensure that the function of the whole device is not affected.

[0031] Further, the limiting cap 2 is in a semicircular structure. The semicircular structure of the limiting cap can effectively prevent the connecting rod body from falling off the retaining clamping column. Due to its shape characteristics, the limiting cap can be firmly clamped at one end of the retaining clamping column, forming a physical barrier to ensure that the connecting rod body does not accidentally slip out during use. The semicircular structure of the limiting cap has a certain elastic deformation ability. When installing or disassembling the connecting rod body, the limiting cap can be temporarily deformed by applying appropriate external force, thereby conveniently sleeving or taking out the connecting rod body. The semicircular structure of the limiting cap can better fit the connecting rod body, increasing the contact area and thus improving the stability of the connection. Even in the case of wear of the retaining clasp, the elastic deformation characteristics of the limiting cap can ensure that the connecting rod body and the retaining clamping column remain tightly connected.

[0032] In combination Figure 2 As shown, the limiting cap 2 and the retaining clamping column 1 are provided with grooves 4, which can be cross-shaped structures. Under the action of the cross-shaped groove 4, the limiting cap 2 is decomposed into a plurality of petal structures, and the retaining clamping column 1 is decomposed into a plurality of strip shapes. Under the action of such design, the limiting cap 2 and the retaining clamping column 1 can produce corresponding elastic deformation, facilitating the installation and disassembly of the connecting rod body 3, without the need for additional tools. Even in the case of wear of the retaining clasp, the elastic deformation ability of the limiting cap and the retaining clamping column can still ensure the tight connection between the connecting rod body and the retaining clamping column.

[0033] Further, the other end of the retaining clamping column 1 is provided with a clamping plate 5, which is in an arc structure. The arc structure of the clamping plate can better fit the structure of the denture, so that the structure can be fixed and installed on the denture structure according to the actual situation.

[0034] Further, the thickness of the connecting rod body 3 is consistent with the height of the retaining clamping column 1. The consistent thickness of the connecting rod body and the retaining clamping column can ensure the tight fit between them. This design reduces the gap and avoids instability due to looseness. The consistent size design maximizes the contact area between the connecting rod body and the retaining clamping column, enhancing the overall strength of the structure, which helps to resist external impact.

[0035] In combination Figure 1 As shown, the two ends of the connecting rod body 3 are respectively provided with sleeve holes 31, and the retaining clamping column 1 is sleeved in the sleeve holes 31. The diameter of the sleeve hole 31 is consistent with the diameter of the retaining clamping column 1. The consistent diameter of the sleeve hole 31 and the retaining clamping column 1 can ensure the tight fit between them. This design reduces the gap and avoids instability due to looseness. The consistent diameter design maximizes the contact area between the connecting rod body and the retaining clamping column, ensuring that the connecting rod body 3 does not easily fall off the retaining clamping column 1 during use.

[0036] The utility model embodiment makes the detailed explanation in combination with the drawing, but the utility model is not limited to the above -mentioned embodiment, still can make various changes in the knowledge range of ordinary skill in the art who has in the premise of not departing from the utility model purpose.
