Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oral cavity patient mouth opening training technology, and more specifically, to an oral cavity patient mouth opening training device. Background Technology

[0002] Mouth opening training is an important rehabilitation method for dental patients, primarily targeting symptoms of limited mouth opening. Limited mouth opening can be caused by a variety of factors, such as oral ulcers, stomatitis, oral cancer, temporomandibular joint arthritis, and oral mucosal fibrosis.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, several devices for mouth-opening training have emerged on the market. However, these devices have significant shortcomings in adjusting mouth opening size. Because they all rely on a screw mechanism for rotation, patients must constantly turn the knob, which is inconvenient and makes the devices difficult to carry. Therefore, we propose an improved mouth-opening training device for dental patients. Utility Model Content

[0031] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0032] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0033] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1-6 A mouth-opening training device for dental patients includes a mouth-opening component 2, which is distributed in a cross pattern. An arc-shaped sleeve 5 is symmetrically arranged on one side of the mouth-opening component 2, and an air tube 3 is passed through the outer side of the arc-shaped sleeve 5. A storage component 1 is provided at the other end of the air tube 3 so as to deliver gas to the mouth-opening component 2 by pressing the storage component 1.

[0035] The mouth opening assembly 2 includes a first rocker 201 and a second rocker 203 arranged in a cross configuration. One end of the first rocker 201 is narrow. A connecting groove 206 is provided through the middle of the second rocker 203 near the side of the arc-shaped sleeve 5. The narrow edge of the first rocker 201 passes through the connecting groove 206 and is sleeved with the second rocker 203. The cross configuration of the first rocker 201 and the second rocker 203 is used to enable patients to practice opening their mouths.

[0036] Furthermore, both the first rocker 201 and the second rocker 203 have placement grooves 205 on their outer surfaces. The first rocker 201 and the second rocker 203 are rotatably connected to the first rotating plate 202 and the second rotating plate 204 through the placement grooves 205, respectively. When in use, the patient bites on the first rotating plate 202 and the second rotating plate 204. At this time, the opening training is achieved by adjusting the angle interface between the first rocker 201 and the second rocker 203. When not in use, the first rocker 201 and the second rocker 203 can store the first rotating plate 202 and the second rotating plate 204 through the placement grooves 205.

[0037] Furthermore, the first rotating plate 202, the second rotating plate 204, and the placement groove 205 are the same size. The inner side of the first rocker plate 201 and the second rocker plate 203, away from the arc-shaped sleeve 5, are both extended with baffles to limit the first rotating plate 202 and the second rotating plate 204. The baffles allow the first rotating plate 202 and the second rotating plate 204 to rotate only 180 degrees.

[0038] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the storage assembly 1 includes a bladder 101 for pressing. One end of the bladder 101 is open for fitting the storage assembly 1, and the other end of the bladder 101 has a quick connector for delivering gas when the bladder 101 is pressed.

[0039] A plastic ring 102 is fixedly installed at the open end of the capsule 101, and the other end of the plastic ring 102 is threaded.

[0040] The other end of the plastic ring 102 is provided with a base 103, and the base 103 is threadedly connected to the plastic ring 102. The inner side of the base 103 near the end of the plastic ring 102 is equipped with a sealing ring, and the other end of the base 103 is connected to a first one-way valve 104.

[0041] When in use, connect the opening of the bag 101 to the bottom of the trachea 3. At this time, by pressing the bag 101, gas is continuously delivered into the trachea 3 through the bag 101 and delivered out of the trachea 3 under the action of the one-way tube 4.

[0042] When not in use, the mouth opening assembly 2 and the trachea 3 are placed directly into the inside of the bag body 101 and sealed by the base 103.

[0043] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the inner cavity of the arc-shaped sleeve 5 is narrow in the middle and wide at both ends. Movable rods 6 are sleeved at both the upper and lower ends of the arc-shaped sleeve 5, and the movable rods 6 extend to the outside of the arc-shaped sleeve 5.

[0044] A return spring 7 is sleeved in the middle of the arc-shaped sleeve 5. The two ends of the return spring 7 are respectively connected to two sets of movable rods 6, and the outer surface of the middle part of the return spring 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the arc-shaped sleeve 5.

[0045] A second check valve 8 is provided on the outer side of a set of arc-shaped sleeves 5, and the second check valve 8 communicates with the inner cavity of the arc-shaped sleeves 5.

[0046] A one-way tube 4 is provided in the upper middle part of the trachea 3 for conveying gas from bottom to top. The top of the trachea 3 is bifurcated and connected to two sets of arc-shaped sleeves 5 respectively.

[0047] During use, the gas delivered by the air tube 3 continuously enters the interior of the two sets of arc-shaped sleeves 5. At this time, the air pressure inside the arc-shaped sleeve 5 continuously increases, pushing the return spring 7 to stretch, and simultaneously pushing the two sets of movable rods 6 to slide, thereby adjusting the angle between the first rocker 201 and the second rocker 203, thus achieving opening training until the test is completed. At this time, the second one-way valve 8 is opened to release pressure and the opening assembly 2 can be removed.
