Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a nipple inversion support frame. Background Technology

[0002] Nipple inversion, medically known as nipple retraction, is a common breast morphological abnormality characterized by the nipple failing to protrude normally from the breast surface and instead retracting inwards. This condition can affect the appearance of a woman's breasts, and more importantly, it can lead to breastfeeding difficulties and increase the risk of breast diseases such as mastitis and nipple fissures. For patients seeking non-surgical correction methods, nipple inversion correctors offer a relatively gentle, non-invasive treatment option that helps to gradually restore the nipple to its normal shape.

[0003] Currently, nipple inversion correctors on the market are mainly divided into two categories: syringe type and suction type.

[0004] The syringe-type orthodontic device connects to a syringe via an external one-way air tube. By manually pulling the syringe, a negative pressure environment is created, thereby pulling the nipple outward. However, this design has some limitations. First, in order to maintain negative pressure, the one-way air tube needs to be continuously connected to the orthodontic device. This not only affects the concealment of wearing the device but also increases the risk of the orthodontic device accidentally falling off. Especially during daily activities, clothing can easily snag on the exposed air tube, causing the orthodontic device to lose its effectiveness.

[0005] The suffocation brace consists of a traction cap and a suffocation bag. When worn, it generates negative pressure by squeezing and releasing the suffocation bag to help the nipple gradually return to its normal position. Although the suffocation brace does not require an additional tracheal connection, it is relatively bulky and not discreet enough to be worn, especially when wearing tight or close-fitting clothing, which may cause discomfort. In addition, for severe nipple inversion, especially long-term deep inversion, the negative pressure provided by the suffocation bag may not be sufficient to achieve effective correction.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide an effective, comfortable, and convenient nipple inversion support. Utility Model Content

[0007] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing syringe-type and suction-type orthotics, such as insufficient negative pressure, inconvenience of wearing, and bulky size, this utility model provides an effective, comfortable and convenient nipple inversion support frame.

[0008] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model employs the following technical solution: a nipple inversion support frame, comprising a traction cap, an air outlet, a sealing baffle, and a first elastic element. The traction cap has a nipple correction cavity in the middle, and an air extraction port at the top of the traction cap. The air outlet is fixedly connected inside the air extraction port. The sealing baffle is slidably disposed inside the air outlet. The first elastic element is sleeved on the lower part of the sealing baffle, and both ends of the first elastic element are connected to the sealing baffle and the air outlet, respectively.

[0009] To further explain, the traction cap is designed to match the shape of the nipple and is made entirely of medical-grade silicone material with smooth and rounded edges.

[0010] Further explanation: It also includes a guide plate, a fixing rod, and an arc-shaped reinforcing plate. The guide plate is provided on the top of the traction cap. The fixing rods are fixedly connected to the guide plate and are symmetrically distributed. The arc-shaped reinforcing plate is slidably provided on the fixing rod. A second elastic element is sleeved on the fixing rod. The two ends of the second elastic element are respectively connected to the arc-shaped reinforcing plate and the fixing rod.

[0011] To further explain, it also includes a miniature one-way valve and a rubber stopper. The traction cap has a drain port on its side, the miniature one-way valve is installed inside the drain port, and the rubber stopper is plugged into the miniature one-way valve.

[0012] To further explain, it also includes a sealing plug, and the side of the traction cap has a pressure relief port, which is plugged with the sealing plug.

[0013] To further explain, it also includes a sealing ring, which is fitted over the air intake of the traction cap.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following technical effects: 1. By using a built-in one-way exhaust assembly consisting of an air outlet, a sealing baffle and a first elastic element, air can be effectively discharged during the air extraction process, and the air outlet is automatically sealed after the air extraction is completed, ensuring that the negative pressure environment inside the traction cap is stable and lasting. In addition, the traction cap is compact in design and small in size, making it easy to hide under clothing, and is more suitable for long-term wear, ensuring the continuity and effectiveness of the correction process.

[0015] 2. The clamping assembly, consisting of a guide plate, a fixing rod, an arc-shaped reinforcing plate, and a second elastic element, clamps the syringe head, ensuring that it will not easily fall off during the aspiration process, thus enhancing the continuity and stability of the correction process.

[0016] 3. By adding a drain port, a miniature one-way valve, and a rubber stopper to the traction cap, secretions can be cleaned in a timely manner without affecting the sealing environment inside the traction cap, thus maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of the inside of the traction cap.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A nipple inversion support frame includes a traction cap 1, an air outlet 2, a sealing baffle 3, and a first elastic element 4. The traction cap 1 matches the shape of the nipple to ensure it fits tightly to the nipple and surrounding skin, providing the best correction effect. It is made of medical-grade silicone material with smooth and rounded edges to avoid friction and irritation to the skin, ensuring comfort and safety during wear. The traction cap 1 has a nipple correction cavity in the middle and an air extraction port at the top. The air outlet 2 is fixedly connected to the air outlet. The sealing baffle 3 is slidably installed inside the air outlet 2. The sealing baffle 3 can move up and down to control the opening and closing of the air extraction port. The first elastic element 4 is sleeved on the lower part of the sealing baffle 3. The two ends of the first elastic element 4 are connected to the sealing baffle 3 and the air outlet 2, respectively, to provide a restoring force for the sealing baffle 3, so that it can remain closed when no external force is applied.

[0024] Before use, insert the syringe into the air extraction port at the top of the traction cap 1 to complete the assembly. Then, align the traction cap 1 with the nipple and ensure it fits snugly against the skin. Next, by pulling the syringe piston, the sealing baffle 3 is lifted upwards under the suction force, and the first elastic element 4 is stretched accordingly. At this time, the air outlet 2 opens, and the air inside the traction cap 1 is extracted, creating an internal and external pressure difference. As a gentle negative pressure is generated inside the traction cap 1, the inverted nipple will be gradually drawn into the correction cavity. When the nipple has been significantly improved or has reached a stable suction state, the syringe can be removed. At this time, due to the reset pulling force of the first elastic element 4, the sealing baffle 3 will descend under the pulling force of the first elastic element 4 and close the air outlet 2, maintaining the negative pressure environment inside the traction cap 1. In this way, the user can wear the traction cap 1 with them at all times to maintain gentle suction and traction on the nipple for a long time, thereby achieving the effect of correcting nipple inversion.

[0025] Example 2: Based on Example 1, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 4 It also includes a guide plate 5, a fixing rod 6 and an arc-shaped reinforcing plate 7. The top of the traction cap 1 is provided with a guide plate 5, and the guide plate 5 is fixedly connected with symmetrically distributed fixing rods 6. The fixing rod 6 is slidably provided with an arc-shaped reinforcing plate 7 for clamping the syringe. A second elastic element 8 is sleeved on the fixing rod 6. The two ends of the second elastic element 8 are respectively connected to the arc-shaped reinforcing plate 7 and the fixing rod 6 to provide a restoring force for the arc-shaped reinforcing plate 7.

[0026] Before assembling the syringe, pull the arc-shaped reinforcing plate 7 outward. At this time, the second elastic element 8 is compressed, preparing for the subsequent clamping action. Then, insert the syringe into the suction port. Since the arc-shaped reinforcing plate 7 is in the pulled-out state, the syringe can be inserted smoothly without obstruction. After inserting the syringe, release the arc-shaped reinforcing plate 7. Under the elastic force of the second elastic element 8, the arc-shaped reinforcing plate 7 will automatically return to its original position inward, tightly clamping the head of the syringe, ensuring that it will not easily fall off during the suction process, thus ensuring the continuity and stability of the correction process.

[0027] Please see Figure 3 It also includes a miniature one-way valve 10 and a rubber stopper 11. A drain port 9 is provided on the side of the traction cap 1. A miniature one-way valve 10 is provided on the outside of the drain port 9. The design of the miniature one-way valve 10 allows internal gas or liquid to be discharged in one direction and prevents external air from entering. A rubber stopper 11 is plugged on the miniature one-way valve 10 to seal the miniature one-way valve 10.

[0028] During the continuous traction of the nipple, secretions may be generated. At this time, the user can remove the rubber stopper 11, open the miniature one-way valve 10, and drain the secretions inside the traction cap 1 through the miniature one-way valve 10 to ensure internal cleanliness and avoid infection or other complications caused by the accumulation of secretions. This helps to improve the user's comfort and wearing experience. After the secretions are drained, the rubber stopper 11 is put back into the miniature one-way valve 10 to ensure a sealed environment inside the traction cap 1. Then, the air extraction work inside the traction cap 1 can continue.

[0029] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 It also includes a sealing plug 13 and a sealing ring 14. A pressure relief port 12 is provided on the side of the traction cap 1 to release the internal negative pressure when the traction cap 1 needs to be removed. The pressure relief port 12 is plugged with a sealing plug 13, which is used to seal the pressure relief port 12 to ensure that the negative pressure environment inside the traction cap 1 is not destroyed by the outside air during normal use. A sealing ring 14 is fitted on the outside of the air extraction port of the traction cap 1. The function of the sealing ring 14 is to fill the tiny gap between the air extraction port and the syringe to ensure that there is no air leakage during the air extraction process, thereby improving the air extraction efficiency.
