AI Technical Summary
Current feeding devices for orthognathic patients after surgery require manual holding of the bottle and repeated squeezing, which is laborious to operate and makes it difficult to control the speed and amount of eating. It is also inconvenient for patients with swelling under the tongue to eat.
A self-regulating feeding device was designed, comprising a food storage box, a feeding tube, and a flow rate regulator. The flow rate regulator controls the feeding speed and amount, and the feeding nozzle is fixed to the patient's mouth by a fixing unit. The detachable flat silicone nozzle is easy to clean and reuse.
It allows patients to control the speed and amount of food they eat, making the process easier, improving the stability and convenience of eating, reducing costs, and enhancing environmental friendliness.
