Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a breathing training device. Background Technology

[0002] Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS, OSAS) is a condition characterized by pauses in breathing due to obstructive lesions of the upper airway (including collapse of the pharyngeal mucosa), with snoring being the primary symptom. Many factors contribute to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, with weak airway muscles being a common cause. These factors include weakness, thickening, and crowding of the neck and pharyngeal muscles. Treatment methods for snoring typically include surgical removal, anti-snoring devices, and exercise-based weight loss therapies.

[0003] Anti-snoring therapy is currently the main method for preventing snoring during sleep. This involves using a CPAP machine, anti-snoring patches, mouthguards, or belts before bed to keep the airway clear during sleep. However, because these devices need to be worn constantly during sleep, patient acceptance is low, and snoring often resumes once the device is removed. Therefore, anti-snoring therapy only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. Exercise for weight loss can fundamentally address respiratory muscle weakness caused by obesity, but it requires a certain amount of space and time. Most people are too busy to find suitable places for weight loss exercise, and the effects of exercise are mainly on the surface of the body, without effectively strengthening the muscles of the throat and nasal cavity.

[0004] However, there are two main causes of snoring: one is that the pharyngeal muscles are thickened and weak, and when sleeping, the muscles relax and block the airway; the other is that decreased respiratory function leads to reduced tension in the pharyngeal muscles, which cannot support the muscles during sleep and thus block the airway, causing snoring. Therefore, strengthening and improving pharyngeal muscle exercises can effectively improve snoring. These exercises can be done using a training device, where inhalation or exhalation acts on the device and the vibrations it generates are used to treat snoring and improve respiratory muscle strength.

[0005] However, existing training devices have the following drawbacks: parameters such as the frequency and cumulative time of breathing exercises rely entirely on personal recording. Individuals often cannot fully record the training parameters for each breath due to personal matters and habits, resulting in occasional over- or under-training, leading to an imbalance in each training session and an inability to conduct regular and scientific training, thus affecting the effectiveness of breathing exercises.

[0037] In one embodiment, this utility model discloses a breathing training device 100, comprising: a frame 1 having an inner cavity and an air inlet 13 and an air outlet 14 respectively communicating with the inner cavity; a partition plate 2, housed in the inner cavity to divide the inner cavity into a first cavity 15 and a second cavity 16, the partition plate 2 having a through hole 21 communicating with the first cavity 15 and the second cavity 16; a vibration assembly 3 including a rotatable swing arm 31 disposed within the frame 1 and a valve 32 disposed on the swing arm 31, the valve 32 blocking the through hole 21 when the swing arm 31 swings to a first position and disengaging from the through hole 21 when the swing arm 31 swings to a second position; a magnetic assembly 5 including a first magnet 51 disposed on the frame 1 and a second magnet 52 disposed on the swing arm 31 and magnetically attracting the first magnet 51; and a sensor 4 for detecting changes in the magnetic field of the second magnet 52 to determine breathing parameters, such as... Figures 1 to 11 As shown.

[0038] Preferably, the frame 1 is used to facilitate gas flow to help the patient exhale or inhale; the frame 1 can be a cylinder, cuboid, or other geometric shape, or an irregular geometric shape, etc., without specific limitations; the frame 1 can be made of metal, plastic, or other materials, etc., without specific limitations; furthermore, the frame 1 has an inner cavity for the flow of the patient's exhaled or inhaled gas to help the patient perform exhalation or inhalation exercises; the shape of the inner cavity can be a cylinder, cuboid, or other geometric shape, etc., or... The air inlet 13 can be any irregular geometric shape, and is not specifically limited here. It is located at one end of the frame 1 and communicates with the inner cavity, preferably at one end along the length of the frame 1, so that gas can enter the inner cavity from the air inlet 13. The air outlet 14 is located at the other end of the frame 1 and communicates with the inner cavity, preferably at one end along the length of the frame 1, so that gas can exit from the air outlet 14. The arrangement of the air inlet 13, the inner cavity, and the air outlet 14 allows gas to enter the inner cavity from the air inlet 13 and then exit from the air outlet 14, achieving unidirectional gas flow and facilitating the patient's inhalation or exhalation. In other embodiments, the air inlet 13 and the air outlet 14 can also be located at both ends along the width or thickness of the frame 1, or one can be located at one end along the length, width, or thickness of the frame 1, and the other at one end along the width, thickness, or length of the frame 1, etc. The arrangement can be as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0039] More preferably, the partition plate 2 is disposed within the inner cavity and is fixedly connected to the frame 1, such as by integral molding, welding, or bonding. The method of fixed connection can be selected as needed and is not specifically limited here. The partition plate 2 can be located at the middle position along the length direction of the frame 1 or at one end along the length direction, etc. In this embodiment, the partition plate 2 is located at the middle position along the length direction of the frame 1. The partition plate 2 can extend along the length direction of the frame 1, or it can extend along the thickness direction or width direction of the frame 1. The user can set it as needed and is not specifically limited here. In this embodiment, the partition plate 2 extends along the length direction of the frame 1. The partition plate 2 divides the inner cavity of the frame 1 into two independent cavities, namely the first cavity 15 and the second cavity 16. The first cavity 15 and the second cavity 16 are located on both sides of the partition plate 2 and are isolated from each other to achieve spatial separation between the two cavities. The shapes of the first cavity 15 and the second cavity 16 can be... The gas can be a regular geometric shape, such as a cylinder or cuboid, or an irregular geometric shape, as the user can set according to their needs. No specific limitation is made here. The first chamber 15 is connected to the air inlet 13, allowing gas entering through the air inlet 13 to enter the first chamber 15. The second chamber 16 is connected to the air outlet 14, allowing gas in the second chamber 16 to exit through the air outlet 14. A through hole 21 is provided on the partition plate 21, penetrating both surfaces of the partition plate 21. One end of the through hole 21 is connected to the first chamber 15, and the other end is connected to the second chamber 16, thus enabling communication between the first chamber 15 and the second chamber 16. This allows gas in the first chamber 15 to enter the second chamber 16 through the through hole 21, facilitating gas flow between the two chambers. The through hole 21 can be located in the middle of the partition plate 21 or at one end of the partition plate 21, as needed. No specific limitation is made here.

[0040] Preferably, the vibration component 3 is disposed within the inner cavity of the frame 1 to achieve mechanical vibration. It is driven to vibrate during the patient's inhalation or exhalation, thereby exercising the patient's respiratory muscles. The frequency is more adaptable to the patient's inhalation or exhalation, resulting in a more ideal exercise effect on the respiratory muscles. The swing arm 31 is used to swing within the inner cavity to generate vibration waves. These vibration waves cause the respiratory muscles to vibrate, achieving the effect of muscle exercise and treating snoring. For patients unable to expel sputum independently, the vibration waves cause vibration of the expiratory tract, effectively loosening sputum adhering to the trachea, aiding in sputum expulsion. The frequency of this vibration wave is 20Hz to 200Hz. The valve 32 is disposed within... The valve 32 is mounted on the swing arm 31 and can swing with the swing arm 31. The valve 32 and the swing arm 31 can be integrally formed or fixedly connected, such as by welding or bonding, etc., which can be set as needed and are not specifically limited here. Furthermore, the valve 32 can be set in the middle position of the swing arm 31 or at one end of the swing arm 31, etc., which can be set as needed and are not specifically limited here. When the swing arm 31 swings to the first position, the valve 32 is partially received in the through hole 21 and the through hole 21 is blocked to achieve isolation between the first cavity 15 and the second cavity 16, preventing gas from entering the second cavity 16 from the first cavity 15 through the through hole 21, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown; when the swing arm 31 swings to the second position, the valve 32 disengages from the through hole 21 and does not block the through hole 21, thereby connecting the first chamber 15 and the second chamber 16. At this time, the gas in the first chamber 15 can enter the second chamber 16 through the through hole 21.

[0041] It should be noted that the second position is any position where the swing arm 31 swings to where the valve 32 does not block the through hole 21, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0042] Preferably, the first magnet 51 is fixed to the frame 1, such as to the inner wall or the outer wall of the frame 1, to achieve a stable connection between the two. The first magnet 51 can be a cylindrical, cuboid, or irregular geometric shape, etc., and can be set as needed, without specific limitation here. The second magnet 52 is fixedly connected to the swing arm 31, such as by adhesive or snap-fit ​​connection. The second magnet 52 and the first magnet 51 are positioned opposite each other so that they attract each other magnetically, which helps the swing arm 31 to return to its original position in time during the swinging process, thereby allowing the valve 32 to block the through hole 21 and prevent gas backflow. The second magnet 52 can be set in the middle of the swing arm 31 or at the end of the swing arm 31. In this embodiment, the second magnet 52 is fixed to the end of the swing arm 31.

[0043] It should be noted that during the swinging process, the swing arm 31 drives the second magnet 52 to periodically move away from and towards the first magnet 51. When the second magnet 52 moves away from the first magnet 51, the magnetic attraction of the first magnet 51 to the second magnet 52 can make the swing arm 31 quickly return to its original position, which helps to accelerate the vibration of the swing arm 31 and thus enhance the training effect on the respiratory muscles.

[0044] More preferably, the sensor 4 can be located inside or outside the frame 1, depending on the requirements, and is not specifically limited here. The sensor 4 is close to the second magnet 52, and during the swing of the swing arm 31, the second magnet 52 periodically approaches and moves away from the sensor 4, thereby causing the sensor 4 to generate periodic voltage pulses or continuous voltage change signals. The period of its output signal is consistent with the swing period of the second magnet 52, and thus consistent with the swing period of the swing arm 31. Therefore, by detecting the period of the magnetic field change of the second magnet 52 through the sensor 4, the swing period of the swing arm 31 can be obtained, and then the number of swings, frequency, time, etc. of the swing arm 31 can be obtained to determine the frequency, number of swings, time, etc. of the patient's exhalation or inhalation.

[0045] It should be noted that the above respiratory parameters include the patient's breathing frequency, number of breaths, and duration. In other embodiments, other parameters may also be used. Users can set them as needed, and no specific limitations are made here.

[0046] In one embodiment, the sensor 4 is disposed inside or outside the frame 1; and / or, the sensor 4 is a Hall sensor, such as... Figures 1 to 11 As shown.

[0047] Preferably, the sensor 4 can be disposed inside the frame 1, such as fixed to the inner wall of the frame 1 or fixed to the isolation plate 2, etc., and can be disposed at any position inside the frame 1 as needed.

[0048] More preferably, the sensor 4 can be disposed outside the frame 1, such as fixed to the outer wall of the frame 1, or located at a required position outside the frame 1, etc., and can be disposed as needed, without specific limitation here.

[0049] It should be noted that the position of sensor 4 only needs to be able to detect the periodic changes in the magnetic field of the second magnet 52; no specific limitations are imposed here.

[0050] More preferably, sensor 4 is a Hall sensor, which mainly consists of a semiconductor wafer, a current source and electrodes. When current passes through the semiconductor material, if a magnetic field is applied in the direction perpendicular to the current, the charge carriers will be deflected to both sides of the material by the Lorentz force, forming a transverse potential difference. This is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0051] It should be noted that the Hall sensor is a common sensor on the market used to detect changes in magnetic fields. In other embodiments, sensor 4 can also be other sensors that detect periodic changes in magnetic fields. Users can set it according to their needs, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0052] In one embodiment, the breathing training device 100 further includes a housing 9, with at least a portion of the frame 1 housed within and fixedly connected to the housing 9, and the sensor 4 fixed to the inner wall of the housing 9, such as... Figures 1 to 8 As shown.

[0053] Preferably, the outer shell 9 can be a cuboid, a cylinder, or other geometric shapes, etc., which can be set as needed and are not specifically limited here. In this embodiment, the outer shell 9 is cuboid.

[0054] More preferably, the outer casing 9 can be made of metal materials, such as iron or steel, or plastic materials, etc., which can be set as needed and are not specifically limited here.

[0055] More preferably, at least a portion of the frame 1 is housed within and fixedly connected to the outer shell 9, for example, by welding, bonding, snap-fitting, or other fixed connection methods.

[0056] Preferably, the frame 1 penetrates the inner and outer surfaces of the outer shell 9 and is fixedly connected to them, and penetrates both ends of the outer shell 9 along its length, thereby providing a stable fixation for the frame 1 and enabling it to output vibration waves stably.

[0057] More preferably, the air inlet 13 and the air outlet 14 extend outside the outer casing 9 so as to connect with external structures such as mouthpieces, so as to enable training of the patient's exhalation or inhalation.

[0058] Furthermore, the sensor 4 is fixed to the inner wall of the housing 9 and is positioned directly opposite the second magnet 52, such as directly above or below the second magnet 52. This not only provides stable support and fixation for the sensor 4, but also effectively detects the periodic magnetic field changes generated by the second magnet 52 when the swing arm 31 vibrates, thus completing the detection of parameters such as breathing frequency, number of breaths, and time.

[0059] In one embodiment, the breathing training device 100 further includes a processor 61 and a display 10. The processor 61 is connected to the sensor 4 to receive and process the data detected by the sensor 4. The processor 61 is connected to the display 10 to transmit the processed data to the display 10 for display. Figures 1 to 11 As shown.

[0061] More preferably, the processor 61 is electrically connected to the sensor 4, so that the sensor 4 detects the change in the magnetic field of the second magnet 52 and converts it into an electrical signal. The sensor 4 then transmits the electrical signal to the processor 61. The processor 61 processes the received electrical signal to calculate the period of change in the magnetic field of the second magnet 52, and then determines the swing period of the swing arm 31 to obtain the patient's exhalation or inhalation period. The frequency, number of breaths, and duration of exhalation or inhalation can be determined by the exhalation or inhalation period.

[0062] Preferably, the display 10 is a common display device on the market, which is used to display the respiratory parameters obtained after processing by the processor 61, such as the frequency, number and time of exhalation or inhalation, so that the patient can intuitively understand the relevant information, thereby ensuring regular training every day to achieve the ideal training effect.

[0063] Preferably, the display 10 is disposed on the housing 9, such as on the outer wall of the housing 9, so that the patient can directly observe it. The display 10 is preferably fixed to the front surface or the upper surface of the housing 9.

[0064] More preferably, the processor 4 is electrically connected to the display 10, so that the processor 4 can transmit the processed electrical signal to the display 10 and then display it on the display 10, so that the patient can intuitively obtain respiratory parameter information.

[0069] It should be noted that the breathing training device 100 also includes a circuit board 6, on which the sensor 4, processor 61 and memory 62 are all mounted, facilitating electrical connection between the sensor 4, processor 61 and memory 62, and improving integration and structural stability.

[0070] In one embodiment, the breathing training device 100 further includes a speaker 8, and the processor 61 is connected to the speaker 8, such as... Figure 2 , Figures 5 to 11 As shown.

[0071] Preferably, the speaker 8 is a common speaker on the market, which is used to output sound signals to facilitate the playback of respiratory parameters and other information by voice, thereby helping patients to understand their respiratory parameters in a timely manner.

[0072] More preferably, the speaker 8 can be a single speaker, such as... Figure 2 As shown, there can also be two or more, such as Figure 5 As shown, when there are two speakers 8, they are located on the left and right sides of the circuit board 6.

[0092] Furthermore, the combination of the first partition 11, the partition plate 2, and the second partition 12 can divide the inner cavity of the frame 1 into independent first cavity 15 and second cavity 16. The arrangement of the first partition 11 and the second partition 12 allows the partition plate 2 to extend along the length direction of the frame 1, thereby facilitating its cooperation with the swing arm 31 to realize the swing of the swing arm 31 and increase the stability of vibration.

[0093] In one embodiment, one end of the swing arm 31 is provided with a support shaft 33, and one end of the swing arm 31 is rotatably connected to the support shaft 33 so that the swing arm 31 swings around the support shaft 33.

[0118] It should be noted that in some embodiments, since the frame 1 is shorter and the outer shell 9 is longer, an exhaust pipe 19 is provided at the end of the frame 1. The exhaust pipe 19 is located between the exhaust connector 93 and the frame 1. In this case, the exhaust port 14 is located at the end of the exhaust pipe 19 away from the frame 1, so as to achieve connection with the exhaust connector 93. Furthermore, one end of the exhaust pipe 19 is connected to the end of the frame 1, and the second cavity 16 communicates with the interior of the exhaust pipe 19. The other end of the exhaust pipe 19 is connected to the exhaust connector 93 to achieve gas flow.

[0119] In one embodiment, the isolation plate 2 has an arc-shaped protrusion 22, the through hole 21 passes through the protrusion 22, and the valve 32 is conical and is at least partially accommodated within the protrusion 22 when the through hole 21 is blocked. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown.

[0120] Preferably, the isolation plate 2 is provided with a protrusion 22, which protrudes toward the first cavity 15 to accommodate at least part of the valve 32.

[0121] More preferably, the protrusion 22 is arc-shaped. In other embodiments, the protrusion 22 may also be other shapes, etc., which are not specifically limited here.

[0122] More preferably, the protrusion 22 and the partition plate 22 can be integrally formed, or they can be fixedly connected by welding, bonding or other methods. The specific connection method can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0123] Preferably, the through hole 21 extends through the protrusion 22 so that the valve 32 can at least partially pass through the through hole 21 to block the through hole 21 and prevent gas from passing through the through hole 21.

[0124] More preferably, the valve 32 is conical so that it matches the shape of the protrusion 22, facilitating the sealing of the through hole 21. In other embodiments, when the protrusion 22 has a different shape, the shape of the valve 32 matches the shape of the protrusion 22 to seal the through hole 21.

[0125] Furthermore, the valve 32 can be at least partially housed within the protrusion 22 to block the through hole 21, preventing gas from passing through the through hole 21 and ensuring the sealing performance.

[0126] In one embodiment, the breathing training device further includes an extension tube 400 and a connector for communicating with the mouth or nasal cavity. One end of the extension tube 400 is connected to the air inlet connector 18 or the air outlet connector 93, and the other end of the extension tube 400 is connected to the connector. Figure 10 As shown.

[0127] Preferably, the extension tube 400 is elongated and located outside the housing 9, making it easy to connect to the air inlet connector 18 or the air outlet connector 93.

[0128] It should be noted that: when the connector is used to communicate with the mouth, it is a mouthpiece 200; when the connector is used to communicate with the nasal cavity, it is a nose mask 300. The connector can be set as needed and no specific limitation is made here.

[0129] More preferably, one end of the extension tube 400 is connected to the air inlet connector 18, and the other end is connected to the mouthpiece 200, thereby enabling exhalation or inhalation exercises through the mouthpiece 200.

[0130] It should be noted that the extension tube 400 connects the air inlet connector 18 and the mouthpiece 200, allowing the patient to perform exhalation exercises through the mouthpiece 200. When the patient exhales, the air pressure in the first chamber 15 increases and becomes greater than the air pressure in the second chamber 16. At this time, the valve 32 opens, and the swing arm 31 swings around the support shaft 33. The gas in the first chamber 15 enters the second chamber 16 through the through hole 21. The second end 312 of the swing arm 31 moves away from the isolation plate 2. After colliding with the inner wall of the frame 1, it generates a rebound force, which causes the second end 312 of the swing arm 31 to move towards the isolation plate 2. As plate 2 moves, valve 32 resets and blocks through hole 21. At this time, the patient continues to exhale, and valve 32 opens again. Through the patient's periodic exhalation, valve 32 moves back and forth periodically, thereby generating vibration waves to cause vibration of the airway, which fully exercises the respiratory muscles and thus achieves the effect of treating snoring. Furthermore, due to the gravity of valve 32, the magnetic attraction between the first and second magnets, and the rebound force during swinging, valve 32 quickly resets and increases the resistance of valve 32 to disengage from through hole 21, thereby enhancing the effect of exhalation training.

[0131] More preferably, one end of the extension tube 400 is connected to the air outlet connector 93, and the other end is connected to the mouthpiece 200, so that exhalation or inhalation exercises can be achieved through the mouthpiece 200.

[0132] It should be noted that the above-mentioned connections can be fixed connections such as snap-fit ​​or adhesive, which are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0133] It should be noted that the extension tube 400 connects the air outlet connector 93 and the mouthpiece 200, allowing the patient to perform inhalation exercises through the mouthpiece 200. When the patient inhales, the air pressure in the second chamber 16 decreases and becomes lower than the air pressure in the first chamber 15. At this time, the valve 32 opens, and the swing arm 31 swings around the support shaft 33. The gas in the first chamber 15 enters the second chamber 16 through the through hole 21. The second end 312 of the swing arm 31 moves away from the isolation plate 2. After colliding with the inner wall of the frame 1, it generates a rebound force, causing the second end 312 of the swing arm 31 to move towards the isolation plate 2. The movement causes valve 32 to reset and block the through hole 21. At this time, the patient continues to exhale, and valve 32 opens again. Through the patient's periodic exhalation, valve 32 moves back and forth periodically, thereby generating vibration waves to cause vibration of the airway, which allows the respiratory muscles to be fully exercised, thus achieving the effect of treating snoring. Furthermore, due to the gravity of valve 32, the magnetic attraction between the first magnet 51 and the second magnet 52, and the rebound force generated during swinging, valve 32 quickly resets and increases the resistance of valve 32 to disengage from through hole 21, thus achieving the effect of correct inhalation training.

[0134] It should also be noted that the mouthpiece 200 mentioned above can also be replaced with a nose mask 300, etc., and the settings can be selected according to needs. No specific restrictions are made here.

[0135] It should also be noted that the extension tube 400 allows patients to avoid holding the breathing training device for extended periods of time. The breathing training device 100 can be placed in a backpack or on a table, and patients can sit or lie down. They only need to hold the mouthpiece 200 or the nasal mask 300, making it more convenient to operate.

[0136] In one embodiment, the breathing training device 100 further includes a silencer 7, which is disposed within the air outlet connector 93, the air outlet pipe 19, or the air outlet 14. Figure 7 or Figure 8 As shown.

[0137] Preferably, the silencer 7 is a commercially available silencer, which can be of straight pipe, plate, honeycomb, or other structures, all of which can reduce noise. Here, a straight pipe silencer is preferred. The sound-absorbing material and structure of the straight pipe silencer are directly arranged on the inner wall of the pipe, and the pipe can be circular or rectangular, etc., and the minimum cross-sectional area of ​​the silencer 7 pipe is greater than 30% of the area of ​​the air outlet. Since the airflow flows from the first chamber 15 to the second chamber 16 during exhalation or inhalation, the gas flow needs to be realized as quickly as possible to avoid the airflow stagnating in the first chamber 15 or the second chamber 16 and affecting the vibration of the valve 32. Exhausting is carried out by the silencer 7 pipe having a minimum cross-sectional area greater than 30% of the area of ​​the air outlet 14, which does not affect the vibration of the valve 32 and reduces noise to a certain extent.

[0138] More preferably, the muffler 7 is disposed within the air outlet connector 93 and is fixedly connected to it, such as by snap-fit ​​connection, threaded connection, adhesive bonding, etc. The specific connection method can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0139] More preferably, the muffler 7 is disposed inside the air outlet pipe 19 and is fixedly connected to it, such as by snap-fit ​​connection, threaded connection, adhesive bonding, etc. The specific connection method can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0140] Preferably, the muffler 7 is disposed inside the air outlet 14 and is fixedly connected to it, such as by snap-fit ​​connection, threaded connection, adhesive bonding, etc. The specific connection method can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0141] In one embodiment, the breathing training device 100 further includes a sleeve 17, the frame 1 being housed within and fixedly connected to the sleeve 17, such as... Figure 3 As shown.

[0142] Preferably, the sleeve 17 can be a cuboid, cylinder, or other geometric shape, and its specific shape can be set as needed, without being specifically limited here.

[0143] More preferably, the sleeve 17 can be made of metal or non-metal materials, such as plastic. The specific material can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0144] More preferably, the frame 1 is housed within the sleeve 17 and fixedly connected thereto, such as by snap-fit ​​connection, adhesive bonding, welding, etc. The specific connection method can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0145] Preferably, the outer surface of the frame 1 abuts against the inner surface of the sleeve 17 to achieve a stable connection between the two.

[0146] More preferably, the sleeve 17 can be set at the middle position of the outer wall of the frame 1, or at one end of the outer wall of the frame 1, etc. The sleeve 17 can also cover the entire outer wall of the frame 1, and the two ends of the sleeve 17 are coplanar with the two ends of the frame 1, so that the length of the sleeve 17 is consistent with the length of the frame 1. It can be set as needed, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0147] It should be noted that multiple sleeves 17 can also be provided and arranged sequentially at intervals on the outer wall of the frame 1 to enhance the protection of the outer wall of the frame 1.
