[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a nasal support device for children in the growth and development period, including a nasal support 1, which is divided into a left nostril nasal support and a right nostril nasal support. Magnetic strips 2 are fixedly connected to the inner and outer walls of the left nostril nasal support and the right nostril nasal support. The magnetic strips 2 in the left nostril nasal support and the right nostril nasal support are magnetically attracted to each other.
[0029] In this embodiment, the nasal support device 1 is divided into a left nostril nasal support device and a right nostril nasal support device. The magnetic strips 2 on the inner and outer walls of the two devices are attracted to each other. When they are placed in the left and right nostrils of the child respectively, the attraction between the magnetic strips 2 makes the two nasal support devices move closer to each other and stabilize them in the nasal cavity, thus playing a role in initially fixing the support device and preventing it from easily shifting.
[0030] The nasal support device 1 includes a fixed bracket 101, a detachable bracket one 102, and a detachable bracket two 103. A connecting structure 104 is provided between the fixed bracket 101, the detachable bracket one 102, and the detachable bracket two 103. The fixed bracket 101, the detachable bracket one 102, and the detachable bracket two 103 are connected and fixed through the connecting structure 104.
[0031] In this embodiment, the connecting structure 104 consists of a first connecting seat 1041 and a second connecting seat 1042. The fixed bracket 101, the first detachable bracket 102, and the second detachable bracket 103 are connected and fixed through the connecting structure 104. This patent only lists two detachable brackets, and is not limited to the above number.
[0032] The fixed bracket 101, the detachable bracket one 102, and the detachable bracket two 103 are composed of a silicone layer 105, a shape memory alloy layer 106, and a transparent layer 107. The silicone layer 105 is located on the inner side and contacts the nasal skin. The shape memory alloy layer 106 is located on one side of the silicone layer 105 and is composed of polygonal elastic units. The transparent layer 107 is located on the outer side of the shape memory alloy layer 106 and wraps around the shape memory alloy layer 106.
[0033] In this implementation plan, the support device is available in various sizes to suit the wearer's nostrils.
[0034] In this embodiment, the shape memory alloy layer 106 composed of polygonal elastic units can automatically recover its original shape after being squeezed or deformed by external force, ensuring the stability and reliability of the support device. It can be reshaped and molded to a certain extent according to the specific shape of the patient's nasal cavity to better fit the patient's nasal cavity structure and improve the wearing comfort.
[0035] The outer wall of the nasal support 1 is provided with a nasal wing support frame 3, and the dorsal outer wall of the nasal wing support frame 3 is provided with a detachable deep nasal cavity support frame 301.
[0036] In this embodiment, the deep nasal cavity support frame 301 and the nasal wing support frame 3 are detachably connected. They can be connected by snap-fit, but are not limited to the above connection method. If support is needed for the deep nasal cavity, the deep nasal cavity support frame 301 can be used to achieve effective support for deeper parts inside the nasal cavity. If only support is needed for the nasal wing area, then no additional parts need to be spliced, and support can be achieved by the deep nasal cavity support frame 301.
[0037] The left and right nostril nasal supports are respectively installed inside the left and right nostrils. The left and right nostril nasal supports have mechanical rivet points at the upper and lower positions of each nostril.
[0038] In this implementation scheme, the left and right nostril nasal supports are equipped with mechanical rivet points at the upper and lower positions of each nostril. These rivet points act as fulcrums, precisely acting on specific positions of the nostrils. Utilizing scientific mechanical principles, the supporting force is evenly distributed to the internal structure of the nasal cavity, allowing the nostrils to maintain a teardrop shape. This ensures that the nasal cavity receives stable and comfortable support during growth and development, avoiding pressure and discomfort caused by uneven support.
[0039] Among them, the nasal alar support frame 3 on the outer part of the nasal cavity support 1 has a biomimetic curved surface structure that matches the anatomical shape of the human nasal alar cartilage.
[0040] In this embodiment, the nasal alar support frame 3 can simulate the mechanical support function of normal nasal alar cartilage, conform to the external contour of the nasal cavity, provide natural and conformal external support for the nasal cavity, further enhance the stability of the overall structure of the nasal cavity, and help the normal development of the nasal cavity.
[0041] The connection structure 104 includes a first connection seat 1041 and a second connection seat 1042, and a pin 1043 is inserted between the outer walls of the first connection seat 1041 and the second connection seat 1042.
[0042] The outer walls of the fixed bracket 101, the detachable bracket 102, and the detachable bracket 2 103 are all provided with insertion holes that are compatible with the pin 1043. The outer wall of the fixed bracket 101 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 1041, the outer wall of the end of the detachable bracket 102 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 2 1042, and the outer walls of the two ends of the detachable bracket 2 103 are respectively provided with the connecting seat 1041 and the connecting seat 2 1042.
[0043] In this embodiment, during assembly, the pin 1043 is inserted between the outer walls of the first connector 1041 and the second connector 1042 and inserted into the corresponding insertion hole to achieve a stable connection of each bracket. This allows the nasal support 1 to be flexibly assembled and disassembled according to different needs, similar to an adjustable watch strap, to adapt to different children's nasal conditions.
[0044] The outer wall of the nasal support 1 is covered with a filter screen 4.
[0045] In this implementation scheme, an invisible transparent filter 4 is used. The filter 4 effectively filters dust entering the nasal cavity, reducing irritation to the nasal mucosa caused by dust and other foreign objects. The filter 4 is available in various sizes to suit different support devices. The filter 4 can be either attached or not, depending on the user's needs.
[0046] Working principle: The nasal support device 1 is divided into a left nostril nasal support device and a right nostril nasal support device. The magnetic strips 2 on the inner and outer walls of the two are attracted to each other. When they are placed in the left and right nostrils of the child respectively, the attraction between the magnetic strips 2 makes the two nasal support devices move closer to each other and stabilize them in the nasal cavity, which plays a role in initially fixing the support device and preventing it from easily shifting.
[0047] The connecting structure 104 consists of a first connecting seat 1041 and a second connecting seat 1042. The fixed bracket 101, the detachable bracket 102, and the detachable bracket 2 103 are connected and fixed through the connecting structure 104. Specifically, the outer wall of the fixed bracket 101 is fixedly connected to the first connecting seat 1041, the outer wall of the detachable bracket 102 is fixedly connected to the second connecting seat 1042, and the outer walls of the two ends of the detachable bracket 2 103 are respectively provided with the first connecting seat 1041 and the second connecting seat 2 1042.
