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, thickened and weak pharyngeal muscles with decreased tension are the main causes of snoring. Therefore, strengthening and improving pharyngeal muscle exercises can effectively improve snoring. These exercises can be performed using a training device, where inhalation or exhalation is applied to the device, and the vibrations generated by the device are used to treat snoring and improve pharyngeal muscle strength. However, these vibrations generate considerable noise, and prolonged use not only causes noise pollution but also affects the patient's mood and the effectiveness of breathing training.

[0034] 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 within the swing arm 31, the valve 31 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; and a silencer 7, at least partially disposed within the frame 1 to reduce the noise generated by the vibration of the swing arm 31, such as... Figures 1 to 8 As shown.

[0035] 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; 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 frame is an irregular geometric shape, etc.; the air inlet 13 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 interior of 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 be discharged 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 be discharged from the air outlet 14, realizing unidirectional gas flow, which facilitates the patient's exhalation or inhalation. 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.

[0036] 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 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 along the thickness direction or width direction of the frame 1, 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, which 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 regular geometric shapes, such as cylinders, The cavity can be a cuboid or an irregular geometric shape; the first cavity 15 is connected to the air inlet 13 so that the gas entering through the air inlet 13 enters the first cavity 15; the second cavity 16 is connected to the air outlet 14 so that the gas in the second cavity 16 is discharged through the air outlet 14; a through hole 21 is provided on the partition plate 21, the through hole 21 penetrates both surfaces of the partition plate 21, one end of the through hole 21 is connected to the first cavity 15 and the other end is connected to the second cavity 16 so as to realize the connection between the first cavity 15 and the second cavity 16, thereby allowing the gas in the first cavity 15 to enter the second cavity 16 through the through hole 21 so as to realize the gas flow between the two cavities; the through hole 21 can be provided in the middle of the partition plate 21 or at one end of the partition plate 21, etc., and can be provided as needed, without specific limitation here.

[0037] Preferably, the vibration component 3 is disposed within the inner cavity of the frame 1 to achieve mechanical vibration. It is driven to vibrate when the patient inhales or exhales, thereby exercising the patient's respiratory muscles. Moreover, 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, thereby exercising the muscles and achieving the purpose of treating snoring. For patients who cannot expel phlegm independently, the vibration waves cause the airway to vibrate, which can effectively loosen the phlegm adhering to the trachea, thus aiding in phlegm expulsion. Furthermore, the frequency of these vibration waves is between 20Hz and 200Hz, making the exercise effect on the respiratory muscles even more ideal. Valve 32 is mounted on the swing arm 31 and can swing with the swing arm 31. Valve 32 and the swing arm 31 can be integrally formed or fixedly connected, such as by welding or bonding, depending on the requirements. Furthermore, valve 32 can be located in the middle of the swing arm 31 or at one end, depending on the requirements. When the swing arm 31 swings to the first position, valve 32 is partially housed within the through hole 21 and blocks the through hole 21, thus isolating the first chamber 15 from the second chamber 16 and preventing gas from entering the second chamber 16 from the first chamber 15 through the through hole 21. 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.

[0038] 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.

[0039] Preferably, the silencer 7 is a common silencer on the market, which can be a straight tube type, a plate type, a honeycomb type, etc., all of which can achieve the effect of reducing noise. Here, a straight tube silencer is preferred. The sound-absorbing material and structure of the straight tube silencer are directly arranged on the inner wall of the pipe, and the pipe can be circular or rectangular, etc. Since the airflow flows from the first chamber 15 to the second chamber 16 when exhaling or inhaling, the gas flow needs to be realized as soon as possible to avoid the airflow from stagnating in the first chamber 15 or the second chamber 16 and affecting the vibration of the valve 32. The silencer 7 is set so as not to affect the vibration of the valve 32 and to reduce the noise to a certain extent.

[0040] More preferably, the muffler 7 can be partially housed within and fixedly connected to the frame 1, or it can be entirely housed within and fixedly connected to the frame 1; the muffler 7 can be fixed in the middle position within the frame 1, or it can be fixed at one end within the frame 1; the muffler 7 can also be fixed within the first cavity 15 or the second cavity 16, etc. The user can configure it according to needs, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0041] It should be noted that the silencer 7 can significantly reduce the noise generated by the swing arm 31, thereby helping patients with breathing training, reducing the impact of noise pollution on patients and the surrounding environment, and is economical and environmentally friendly.

[0042] In one embodiment, the muffler 7 is fixed inside the air inlet 13 or the air outlet 14.

[0043] Preferably, the muffler 7 is disposed inside the air inlet 13, so that the gas entering the first chamber 15 passes through the muffler 7, thereby the noise generated by the swing arm 31 during the swing process can be effectively processed by the muffler 7 to reduce the noise, and the muffler is close to the swing arm 31, so that the noise reduction effect is more significant.

[0044] More preferably, the muffler 7 is disposed inside the air outlet 14, so that the gas discharged from the second chamber 16 passes through the muffler 7, thereby the noise generated by the swing arm 31 during the swinging process can be effectively processed by the muffler 7 to reduce the noise. Furthermore, the air outlet 14 is closer to the swing arm 31, making its muffler effect more significant. At the same time, it can achieve rapid exhaust and prevent the gas pressure increase caused by gas deposition in the second chamber 16 from affecting the swing of the swing arm 31.

[0045] In one embodiment, the muffler 7 is snap-fitted to or threadedly connected to the frame 1, such as... Figures 1 to 8 As shown.

[0046] Preferably, the muffler 7 is snapped together with the frame 1 to achieve a stable connection between the two. Specifically, one of the muffler 7 and the frame 1 is provided with a snap-fit ​​block and the other is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove. The snap-fit ​​block is received in the snap-fit ​​groove to achieve a stable connection between the two. The snap-fit ​​block is provided on the outer wall of the muffler 7 and the snap-fit ​​groove is provided on the inner wall of the frame 1, or the snap-fit ​​block is provided on the inner wall of the frame 1 or the snap-fit ​​groove is provided on the outer wall of the muffler 7, etc.

[0047] More preferably, the muffler 7 is threadedly connected to the frame 1 to achieve a stable connection between the two. Specifically, the outer wall of the muffler 7 and the inner wall of the frame 1 are respectively provided with external threads and internal threads. The threaded connection between the external threads and the internal threads enhances the stability of the connection between the two, thereby achieving an effective noise reduction effect.

[0048] In one embodiment, when the muffler 7 is housed within the air inlet 13, the minimum cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the muffler 7 is greater than 30% of the area of ​​the air inlet 13.

[0049] Preferably, the cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the muffler 7 is the area of ​​the cross-section perpendicular to the central axis of the muffler 7. The cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the muffler 7 can be the same or different at different points, and can be set as needed, without specific limitation here.

[0050] More preferably, the minimum cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the silencer 7 is the minimum value among all cross-sectional areas. The minimum cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the silencer 7 is greater than 30% of the area of ​​the air inlet 13, so that the airflow can flow smoothly from the first cavity 15 to the second cavity 16, avoiding gas stagnation in the first cavity 15 or the second cavity 16 and affecting the vibration of the valve 32, thus achieving the effect of not affecting the vibration of the valve 32 and reducing noise.

[0051] In one embodiment, when the muffler 7 is housed within the air outlet 14, the minimum cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the muffler 7 is greater than 30% of the area of ​​the air outlet 14.

[0052] Preferably, the cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the muffler 7 is the area of ​​the cross-section perpendicular to the central axis of the muffler 7. The cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the muffler 7 can be the same or different at different points, and can be set as needed, without specific limitation here.

[0053] More preferably, the minimum cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the silencer 7 is the minimum value of the cross-sectional area at all points. The minimum cross-sectional area of ​​the inner cavity of the silencer 7 is greater than 30% of the area of ​​the air outlet 14, so that the airflow can flow smoothly from the first cavity 15 to the second cavity 16, avoiding the gas from being stuck in the first cavity 15 or the second cavity 16 and affecting the vibration of the valve 32, thus achieving the effect of not affecting the vibration of the valve 32 and reducing noise.

[0054] In one embodiment, the frame 1 further includes an air outlet pipe 19, one end of which is connected to the air outlet 14, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to the outer shell 9. Figure 2 As shown.

[0055] Preferably, the breathing training device 100 further includes a housing 9, which covers the outside of the frame 1 and provides protection for the frame 1.

[0056] More 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.

[0057] More preferably, the outer shell 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.

[0058] 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.

[0059] More preferably, when the length of the frame 1 is less than the length of the outer shell 9, in order to achieve a fixed connection between the frame 1 and the outer shell 9, an air outlet pipe 19 is provided, so that one end of the air outlet pipe 19 is fixedly connected to the air outlet 14 and the other end passes through the inner and outer surfaces of the outer shell 9 and is fixedly connected thereto, thereby increasing the length of the frame 1 and achieving a stable connection with the outer shell 9, ensuring stable airflow and achieving effective breathing training.

[0060] In one embodiment, the breathing training device 100 further includes a processor 61, a display 10, and a sensor 4 for detecting the vibration of the swing arm 31 to determine breathing parameters. The sensor 4 is fixed to the inner wall of the housing 9. The processor 61 is connected to the sensor 4 to receive and process the data detected by the sensor 4. The processor 4 is connected to the display 10 to transmit the processed data to the display 10 for display. Figures 1 to 8 As shown.

[0061] 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.

[0062] Preferably, the processor 61 is a commercially available signal processor, which is used to process the electrical signals transmitted by the received sensor 4. This is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0063] More preferably, the display 10 is a commercially available display device, which is used to display the respiratory parameters obtained after processing by the processor 61, such as the frequency, number and duration of exhalation or inhalation, so that the patient can intuitively understand the relevant information, thereby ensuring regular daily training to achieve the ideal training effect; the display 10 is set on the housing 9, such as on the outer wall of the housing 9, so that the patient can directly observe it, and the display 10 is preferably fixed on the front surface or the upper surface of the housing 9; the processor 61 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 through the display 10, so that the patient can intuitively obtain respiratory parameter information.

[0064] Preferably, sensor 4 can be a sound wave detection sensor, such as a microphone sensor. The swing arm 31 generates sound waves during its swing. Since the swing arm 31 swings periodically with inhalation or exhalation, the sound waves it generates are periodic, and this period is consistent with the period of inhalation or exhalation. Therefore, by detecting the periodic vibration sound waves generated by the swing arm 31, sensor 4 can obtain the periodic parameters of the patient's inhalation or exhalation, such as the frequency, number of breaths, and duration of inhalation or exhalation. This enables automatic recording of the parameters of the patient's inhalation or exhalation training, facilitating timely and accurate recording of these parameters by the patient, ensuring regular exercise, and promoting the patient's rapid recovery.

[0065] It should be noted that, in another embodiment, sensor 4 can be a vibration sensor. During the swinging process, the swing arm 31 will collide with the isolation plate 2 and the inner wall of the frame 1, thereby causing the frame 1 to vibrate. The periodic parameters of the frame 1 vibration are consistent with the periodic parameters of the patient's exhalation or inhalation. Therefore, by detecting the periodic vibration of the frame 1 caused by the swinging, sensor 4 can obtain the periodic parameters of the patient's exhalation or inhalation, such as the frequency, number of breaths, and time of exhalation or inhalation, thereby realizing the automatic recording of the parameters of the patient's exhalation or inhalation training. This allows the patient to record the parameters in a timely and accurate manner, ensuring the patient's regular exercise and facilitating the patient's rapid recovery.

[0066] It is also important to note that in another embodiment, sensor 4 can be a barometric pressure sensor. During the patient's exhalation or inhalation exercise, the swing arm 31 swings periodically. During this swing, valve 32 opens and closes periodically. When valve 32 is open, airflow flows from the first chamber 15 through the through-hole 21 to the second chamber 16, causing the air pressure in the first chamber 15 to gradually decrease and the air pressure in the second chamber 16 to gradually increase. When valve 32 blocks the through-hole 21, the airflow from the first chamber 15 into the second chamber 16 decreases, thereby increasing the air pressure in the first chamber 15 and decreasing the air pressure in the second chamber 16. Therefore, during the patient's periodic exhalation or inhalation, the air pressure in the first chamber 15 or the second chamber 16 changes periodically, and the period of air pressure change coincides with the patient's exhalation or inhalation cycle. Therefore, by detecting the air pressure changes in the first chamber 15 or the second chamber 16, the sensor 4 can obtain the periodic parameters of the patient's exhalation or inhalation through the periodic vibration, such as the frequency, number of breaths, and time of exhalation or inhalation. This enables the automatic recording of the parameters of the patient's exhalation or inhalation training, making it convenient for the patient to record these parameters in a timely and accurate manner, and ensuring the patient's regular exercise.

[0067] In other embodiments, the sensor may be any other sensor that can acquire the patient’s respiratory parameters by detecting the vibration of the swing arm 31, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0068] Preferably, the processor 61 is electrically connected to the sensor 4, so that the sensor 4 detects signals such as vibration sound waves, vibration of the frame 1, or changes in air pressure inside the frame 1 and converts them into electrical signals. Then, the sensor 4 transmits the electrical signals to the processor 61. The processor 61 processes the received electrical signals to calculate the period of the above data, and then determines the swing period of the swing arm 31 to obtain the patient's exhalation or inhalation period. The frequency, number of times, and time of exhalation or inhalation can be determined by the exhalation or inhalation period.

[0069] In one embodiment, the breathing training device 100 further includes a memory connected to the sensor 4 to store data detected by it, such as... Figure 8 As shown.

[0070] Preferably, the storage device is a common storage device on the market, such as a hard drive, memory module, or USB flash drive, as long as it can store data, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0071] More preferably, the memory can be disposed inside the housing 9 or outside the housing 9, etc., as needed, and is not specifically limited here. The memory can also be fixed to the outer wall or the inner wall of the frame 1, etc., and is not specifically limited here.

[0072] Preferably, the memory is electrically connected to the sensor 4, so that the sensor 4 can transmit the electrical signals it converts to the memory for storage, thereby storing the data and preventing data loss.

[0073] 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 are all located, facilitating electrical connection between the sensor 4, processor 61 and memory 62, and improving integration and structural stability.

[0074] In one embodiment, the breathing training device 100 further includes a speaker 8, and the processor 4 is connected to the speaker 8, such as... Figure 2 As shown.

[0075] 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.

[0076] 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. The arrangement can be set as needed, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0077] More preferably, the speaker 8 can be fixed to the inner wall of the housing 9 or the outer wall of the housing 9, etc., as needed, and is not specifically limited here. In this embodiment, the speaker 8 is fixed to the inner wall of the housing 9. In order to facilitate the sound played by the speaker 8 to be transmitted to the outside of the housing 9, perforations are provided on the housing 9 to penetrate its inner and outer surfaces, so that the sound played by the speaker 8 can be transmitted through the perforations. Multiple perforations can be provided to improve the efficiency of sound transmission.

[0085] More preferably, the first magnet 51 can be a cylindrical, cuboid, or other geometric shape, or an irregular geometric shape, etc., and can be set as needed, without specific limitations here.

[0086] Preferably, the second magnet 52 is fixedly connected to the swing arm 31, such as by adhesive bonding or snap-fit ​​connection.

[0087] Preferably, 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 reset in time during the swinging process, thereby allowing the valve 32 to block the through hole 21 and prevent gas backflow.

[0088] 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.

[0089] More preferably, one end of the swing arm 31 is provided with a support shaft 33, which is fixedly connected to the frame 1. 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.

[0091] Furthermore, the other end of the swing arm 31 is the second end 312, and the second magnet 52 is fixed on the second end 312 so that when the swing arm 31 swings, it drives the second magnet 52 to swing accordingly, causing it to periodically approach and move away from the first magnet 51 and the sensor 4.

[0092] Furthermore, the second end 312 is fixedly connected to the second magnet 52, such as by adhesive bonding or snap-fitting. The specific connection method can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here. In this embodiment, the second end 312 is provided with a groove, and the second magnet 52 is housed in the groove and fixedly connected to the second end 312 to increase the connection area between the two and enhance the stability of their connection.

[0117] 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.

[0118] 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.

[0119] 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.

[0120] 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.

[0121] In one embodiment, the breathing training device 100 further includes an extension tube 400 and a connector for communicating with the nasal cavity or mouth. 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 6 and Figure 7 As shown.

[0122] 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.

[0123] It should be noted that the connector is used to connect to the mouth or nasal cavity. When the connector is used to connect to the mouth, it is a mouthpiece 200; when the connector is used to connect to the nasal cavity, it is a nose mask 300. It can be set as needed and no specific limitation is made here.

[0124] 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.

[0125] 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, causing the second end 312 of the swing arm 31 to move towards the isolation plate. 2. The valve 32 is moved, causing it to reset and block the through hole 21. At this time, the patient continues to exhale, and the valve 32 opens again. Through the patient's periodic exhalation, the valve 32 moves back and forth periodically, thereby generating vibration waves to cause vibration of the airway, so that the respiratory muscles are fully exercised, thereby achieving the effect of treating snoring. Furthermore, due to the gravity of the valve 32, the magnetic attraction between the first magnet 51 and the second magnet 52, and the rebound force during swinging, the valve 32 is quickly reset, and the resistance of the valve 32 to disengage from the through hole 21 is increased, thereby enhancing the effect of exhalation exercise.

[0126] 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.

[0127] 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.

[0128] 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.

[0129] 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.

[0130] 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.

[0137] 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.

[0138] In one embodiment, the frame 1 includes a first partition 11 located at one end of the partition plate 2 and a second partition 12 located at the other end of the partition plate 2. The partition plate 2 is fixedly connected to the first partition 11 and the second partition 12 respectively, and the partition plate 2 extends along the length direction of the frame 1. Figures 1 to 8 As shown.

[0139] Preferably, the first partition 11 is located on the side of the isolation plate 2 near the air inlet 13. The first partition 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame 1, such as by integral molding, welding, or bonding. The specific connection method can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0140] More preferably, the first partition 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the isolation plate 2 near the air inlet 13, such as by bonding, integral molding, welding, etc. The specific connection method can be set as needed and is not specifically limited here.

[0144] Furthermore, the second partition 12 can be a geometric shape such as a cuboid or cylinder, or an irregular geometric shape, and its specific shape can be set as needed, without being specifically limited here.

[0145] 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.

[0146] Furthermore, the isolation plate 2 extends along the length of the frame 1, thereby increasing its surface area so that the swing arm 31 can better fit on the isolation plate 2 when swinging, and the valve 32 can smoothly block the through hole 21, thus achieving stable unidirectional control of the airflow.
