Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of respiratory rehabilitation training equipment technology, and more particularly to a respiratory rehabilitation training equipment for children. Background Technology
[0002] The goal of respiratory rehabilitation is to effectively reduce symptoms of dyspnea, improve exercise tolerance, reduce complications, alleviate patient anxiety and depression, lower disability rates, and comprehensively and maximize the improvement of patients' quality of life. To meet the needs of respiratory rehabilitation, patients with decreased respiratory muscle strength require the use of respiratory trainers to strengthen their inspiratory muscles.
[0003] When a person inhales normally, the diaphragm and the external intercostal muscles contract. When inhaling forcefully, the assistive muscles of inhalation, such as the trapezius and scalene muscles, are also needed. The contraction of these muscles causes the rib cage to rise and the chest cavity to expand to its limit. Therefore, it is necessary to exercise the inspiratory muscles. Thus, respiratory rehabilitation training devices are designed to increase the strength of the inspiratory muscles, thereby increasing the strength and endurance of the respiratory muscles.
[0004] In pediatric rehabilitation training, respiratory rehabilitation training is crucial, directly impacting not only a child's later physical development but also their mental health. However, children have relatively weak self-control and find it difficult to actively cooperate with rehabilitation training. Furthermore, most respiratory rehabilitation training devices on the market are designed for adults, resulting in tedious and repetitive training processes that fail to engage children, leading to impatience and ultimately affecting the effectiveness of rehabilitation training.

[0035] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0036] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described above can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0037] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1 to 4 The invention shown is a pediatric respiratory rehabilitation trainer designed to address the shortcomings of existing respiratory rehabilitation trainers in that they are less attractive to children.
[0038] This children's respiratory rehabilitation training device mainly includes: the training device body 100, the movable partition 200, the elastic element 300, and the expected pneumatic prompter.
[0039] The training device body 100 has a first channel 110 and a second channel 120 that are interconnected. One end of the first channel 110 is open to form an air inlet 111a. A movable partition 200 is slidably disposed in the first channel 110. The end of the first channel 110 facing the air inlet 111a forms an air groove 112 with the movable partition 200. An elastic element 300 is disposed on the training device body 100. The movable partition 200 is driven by the elastic element 300 to move toward the air inlet 111a. A pneumatic prompter is disposed on the training device body 100.
[0040] In actual use, the first channel 110 and the second channel 120 form a three-way structure, with one opening forming an air inlet 111a and the other two openings forming the first air outlet and the second air outlet, respectively. Since the movable partition 200 is slidably disposed within the first channel 110, and one end of the movable partition 200 is an air inlet 112, while the other end is the first air outlet, when a child blows air into the air inlet 111a, the air pressure in the air inlet 112 is increased, thereby driving the movable partition 200 to move towards the first air outlet (away from the air inlet 111a). When the movable partition 200 moves and passes through the connection point (predetermined position) between the first channel 110 and the second channel 120, the air inlet 112 connects with the second channel 120 (the second air outlet), so the gas in the air inlet 112 is ejected through the second air outlet, thereby driving the pneumatic prompter to issue a prompt, providing positive feedback to the child and stimulating their interest.
[0041] The movable partition 200 is driven to move to have an open state and an isolated state respectively: in the open state, the air duct 112 is connected to the second channel 120 and has airflow to drive the pneumatic indicator to issue a prompt; in the isolated state, the air duct 112 is connected to and separated from the second channel 120.
[0042] Specifically, when a child blows air into the air outlet 111a, the air pressure in the air groove 112 increases. However, when the movable partition 200 is in the open state, the air in the air groove 112 gradually leaks out through the second air outlet, causing the air pressure in the air groove 112 to drop. The elastic element 300 then drives the movable partition 200 to the closed state. When the child continues to blow air into the air outlet 111a, increasing the air pressure in the air groove 112, the movable partition 200 is then in the open state again. Therefore, when a child can drive the movable partition 200 to move back and forth at a certain frequency, creating vibrations or even sound, it effectively stimulates the child's interest.
[0043] It should be noted that the effect produced by the movement of the movable partition 200 in this application can provide children with initial feedback, the prompts from the pneumatic prompter can provide secondary feedback, and multiple feedbacks can provide children with multiple incentives, thereby effectively stimulating their interest.
[0044] Preferably, the movable partition 200 can be made of rubber to improve its sealing with the first channel 110; the elastic element 300 can be several springs; the pneumatic prompter can be a toy that detects airflow and issues a prompt (such as an electric toy that can sense airflow) or a toy that can be driven by airflow (such as the blades of a windmill, a whistle, etc.).
[0045] In pediatric rehabilitation training, respiratory rehabilitation training is crucial, directly impacting not only a child's later physical development but also their mental health. However, children have relatively weak self-control and find it difficult to actively cooperate with rehabilitation training. Furthermore, most respiratory rehabilitation training devices on the market are designed for adults, resulting in tedious and repetitive training processes that fail to engage children, leading to impatience and ultimately affecting the effectiveness of rehabilitation training.
[0046] This invention features a movable partition 200. When a child blows air into the air outlet 111a, the movable partition 200 can be moved. When the movable partition 200 moves to a predetermined position, it is in a conductive state. At this time, the gas in the air outlet 111a can leave through the second channel 120 and drive the pneumatic prompter to issue a prompt, thereby giving the child positive feedback and stimulating the child's interest.
[0047] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the pneumatic prompter includes: a transparent tube 410, which is vertically mounted on the trainer body 100, and a second channel 120 is disposed inside the transparent tube 410;
[0048] Lightweight ball 420, the lightweight ball 420 is set in the second channel 120;
[0049] When the circuit is open, the lightweight ball 420 is driven to move upward.
[0050] In actual use, children can directly observe the position of the lightweight ball 420 while blowing air. With the transparent tube 410 placed vertically, the lightweight ball 420 moves downwards due to gravity. When the movable partition 200 is in the conductive state, the air-blowing groove 112 is connected to the second channel 120 (second air outlet), so the gas in the air-blowing groove 112 is ejected through the second air outlet, thereby driving the lightweight ball 420 upwards, providing positive feedback to the child and stimulating their interest.
[0051] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the inner diameter of the end of the second channel 120 facing the first channel 110 gradually decreases in the direction toward the first channel 110 to form a funnel shape.
[0052] Specifically, when the movable partition 200 is in the conducting state, the air blowing groove 112 is connected to the second channel 120 (second air outlet), and the gas in the air blowing groove 112 will flow along the second channel 120. The end of the second channel 120 facing the first channel 110 is funnel-shaped, which can increase the pressure of the gas reaching the second channel 120 and better drive the lightweight ball 420 to move upward.
[0053] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 2As shown, the pneumatic indicator includes: a position switch 430, which is used to detect whether the lightweight ball 420 has reached a preset position;
[0054] The sound and light module 440 is electrically connected to the position switch 430 and is used to emit sound and light prompts.
[0055] In actual use, when the movable partition 200 is in the conductive state, the gas in the air blowing groove 112 will flow along the second channel 120, thereby driving the lightweight ball 420 to move upward. When the lightweight ball 420 moves to the preset position, the position switch 430 is turned on, thereby causing the sound and light module 440 to emit sound and light prompts, which can give children positive feedback and stimulate their interest.
[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the position switch 430 includes a limit switch, which is disposed at the top of the transparent tube 410 and is used to prevent the lightweight ball 420 from leaving the second channel 120.
[0057] Specifically, the limit switch requires a certain amount of force to activate it. Therefore, children need to blow the lightweight ball 420 to strike the limit switch so that it can activate and emit an audible and visual alert.
[0058] It should be noted that the effect produced by the movement of the movable partition 200 in this application can provide children with the first feedback, the movement of the lightweight ball 420 can provide the second feedback, and the impact of the lightweight ball 420 on the limit switch can activate the limit switch and emit sound and light prompts to provide the third feedback. Multiple feedbacks can provide children with multiple incentives, thereby effectively stimulating children's interest.
[0059] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the pediatric respiratory rehabilitation trainer also includes: a handle 500, which is connected to the trainer body 100, and a first channel 110 is set perpendicular to the handle 500;
[0060] An arc-shaped groove 510 is provided around the circumference of the handle 500.
[0061] Specifically, the handle 500 is designed to make it easy for children to grip, and the curved groove 510 can improve the stability of children's grip on the handle 500.
[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, the children's respiratory rehabilitation training device also includes: an anti-slip sleeve 520, which is fitted onto the arc-shaped groove 510.
[0063] Specifically, its structure is as follows: Figure 4As shown, the anti-slip sleeve 520 body is connected by Velcro at both ends, which can improve the stability of children's grip on the handle 500.
[0064] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, one end of the trainer body 100 forms an air nozzle 111, and an air inlet 111a is provided on the air nozzle 111;
[0065] The pediatric respiratory rehabilitation training device also includes: a limiting ring 113, which is fitted onto the mouthpiece 111 and is used to limit the protruding length of the mouthpiece 111.
[0066] Specifically, the outer diameter of the limiting ring 113 should be greater than the maximum inner diameter after the child opens their mouth, thereby limiting the length of the mouthpiece 111 that extends into the child's mouth and avoiding damage to the child's oral cavity and throat.
[0067] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the pediatric respiratory rehabilitation training device also includes an antibacterial mouthpiece 114, which is mounted on the mouthpiece 111. This ensures dedicated use and greater hygiene.
[0068] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, several guide rails 115 are respectively arranged in the first channel 110 along the axial direction of the first channel 110, and movable partitions 200 are respectively slidably arranged on the several movable partitions 200.
[0069] Specifically, by setting several guide rails 115, the movement posture of the movable partition 200 can be controlled, effectively ensuring its sealing with the first channel 110.
[0070] In summary, a pediatric respiratory rehabilitation training device is provided, comprising a training device body, a movable partition, an elastic element, and a pneumatic prompter. The training device body has a first channel and a second channel that are interconnected. The end of the first channel facing the air inlet forms an air-blowing groove with the movable partition. The elastic element is mounted on the training device body, and the movable partition is driven by the elastic element to move towards the air inlet. The movable partition is driven to have two states: a connected state (connected to the air inlet) and a separated state (separated from the second channel). In the connected state, the pneumatic prompter issues a prompt. This invention, by setting a movable partition, allows the partition to move when the child blows air into the air inlet. When the partition moves to a preset position, it is in a connected state, allowing the air in the air inlet to leave through the second channel and drive the pneumatic prompter to issue a prompt, thus providing positive feedback to the child and stimulating their interest.
[0071] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
