Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of diving technology, and in particular to a diving mouthpiece. Background Technology
[0002] A diving mouthpiece is a device that a diver bites onto and uses to supply air to the diver. Chinese utility model patent application CN104684800A discloses a customizable mouthpiece for scuba divers, which includes a front component and a U-shaped... The front part extends from a proximal end inside the mouth to a distal end outside, forming a horizontal channel between the proximal and distal ends. The rear part has a middle portion and a pair of leg portions. The middle portion is fixed to the proximal end of the front part. Each of the pair of leg portions extends posteriorly from the middle portion for positioning between the diver's teeth and terminating at the rear of the diver's mouth. Each leg portion includes a thermoformable and customizable occlusal portion. The occlusal portion is characterized by being formed by an upper lateral wall portion and a lower lateral wall portion, as well as an upper medial wall portion and a lower medial wall portion. All wall portions are connected at a common occlusal line. Each wall portion extends outward from the occlusal line such that each leg portion has a generally X-shaped cross section across the occlusal line. The drawbacks of existing customizable mouthpieces are as follows: First, they cannot achieve communication functions. Second, the bite part of existing customizable mouthpieces is made entirely of thermoformable material. Although the bite part can be customized after heating the leg part, it is prone to uncontrolled deformation due to the lack of internal support. Third, the bite part is not detachable. If customization fails (for example, the bite part cannot match the user's upper and lower jaw shape due to excessive deformation), the entire customizable mouthpiece must be discarded, which is wasteful.

[0032] Refer to the accompanying drawings of the specification of this utility model. Figures 1 to 13 A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be disclosed and described in the following description, wherein the diving mouthpiece includes a mouthpiece unit 10 and a detection unit 20.
[0033] Specifically, the mouthpiece unit 10 includes a mouthpiece body 11 and two shaping bodies 12. The mouthpiece body 11 includes an assembly cylinder 111 and an arc-shaped retaining portion 112. The assembly cylinder 111 has an air inlet channel 1111, and the retaining portion 112 has a retaining groove 1121. The assembly cylinder 111 extends rearward from the middle of the retaining portion 112. The air inlet channel 1111 of the assembly cylinder 111 and the retaining groove 1121 of the retaining portion 112 are connected. The assembly cylinder 111 is used to assemble a secondary head, which allows oxygen to reach the retaining groove 1121 of the retaining portion 112 through the air inlet channel 1111 of the assembly cylinder 111. The inner side of the retaining portion 112 has two biting arms 1122, which are symmetrically distributed with respect to the air inlet channel 1111 of the assembly cylinder 111. Each of the shaping bodies 12 includes an upper shaping piece 121 and a lower shaping piece 122. The upper shaping piece 121 is mounted on the occlusal arm 1122 and stacked on the upper side of the occlusal arm 1122, and the lower shaping piece 122 is mounted on the occlusal arm 1122 and stacked on the lower side of the occlusal arm 1122. Thus, the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122 are respectively mounted on opposite sides of the occlusal arm 1122. The shape and size of the retaining part 112 match the shape and size of the user's mouth, so that the user's upper and lower jaws can bite the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122, and after the user's upper and lower jaws bite the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122, the retaining groove 1121 of the retaining part 112 is located inside the oral cavity.
[0034] The upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122 can be made of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA). This allows the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122 to be molded after heating, enabling the diving mouthpiece to meet the user's personalized needs. Specifically, during initial use, the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122 are first heated, and then the user (i.e., the diver) bites on the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122. At this time, the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122 can be molded according to the user's upper and lower jaws. The shaped upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122 can match the shape of the user's upper and lower jaws, thereby enabling the diving mouthpiece to meet the user's personalized needs.
[0035] Reference Appendix Figure 2 and Figure 3The retaining part 112 has at least one arm body through hole 11221 for the biting arm 1122, the upper shaping piece 121 has at least one insert post 1211, and the lower shaping piece 122 has at least one insert hole 1221. The insert post 1211 of the upper shaping piece 121 passes through the arm body through hole 11221 of the biting arm 1122 and is inserted into the insert hole 1221 of the lower shaping piece 122. In this way, the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122 can be firmly installed on opposite sides of the biting arm 1122, preventing the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122 from falling off the biting arm 1122.
[0036] It is understood that the shape and size of the insertion post 1211 of the upper molded piece 121 matches the shape and size of the insertion hole 1221 of the lower molded piece 122. After the insertion post 1211 of the upper molded piece 121 is inserted into the insertion hole 1221 of the lower molded piece 122, there is a large frictional force between the insertion post 1211 of the upper molded piece 121 and the inner wall of the lower molded piece 122 that defines the insertion hole 1221, so that the upper molded piece 121 and the lower molded piece 122 can be firmly installed on the opposite sides of the engagement arm 1122.
[0037] In the appendix Figures 1 to 13 In this specific example of the diving mouthpiece of the present invention shown, the number of arm body through holes 11221 of the bite arm 1122 of the retaining part 112 is three. Correspondingly, the upper shaping plate 121 has three insertion posts 1211, and the lower shaping plate 122 has three insertion holes 1221. Each insertion post 1211 of the upper shaping plate 121 passes through the arm body through hole 11221 of the bite arm 1122 and is inserted into the respective insertion hole 1221 of the lower shaping plate 122, thereby firmly installing the upper shaping plate 121 and the lower shaping plate 122 on opposite sides of the bottom of the bite arm 1122.
[0038] Continue to refer to the appendix Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7The retaining part 112 has at least two upper pin holes 1123 and at least two lower pin holes 1124. The inner opening of the upper pin hole 1123 is located on the upper side of the biting arm 1122, and the inner opening of the lower pin hole 1124 is located on the lower side of the biting arm 1122. The upper shaping piece 121 has at least one upper blind hole 1212. The position of the upper blind hole 1212 corresponds to the position of the upper pin hole 1123 of the retaining part 112. One end of a pin 30 of the diving bite is located in the upper pin hole 1123 of the retaining part 112, and the other end is located in the upper blind hole 1212 of the upper shaping piece 121. The lower shaping piece 122 has at least one lower blind hole 1222, the position of which corresponds to the position of the lower pin hole 1124 of the retaining part 112. One end of the other pin 30 is located in the lower pin hole 1124 of the retaining part 112, and the other end is located in the lower blind hole 1222 of the lower shaping piece 122. With this structure, the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122 are securely mounted to opposite sides of the bottom of the engaging arm 1122.
[0039] It is understood that the shape and size of the upper pin hole 1123 of the retaining part 112, the shape and size of the lower pin hole 1223, the shape and size of the upper blind hole 1212 of the upper molded piece 121, and the shape and size of the lower blind hole 1222 of the lower molded piece 122 match the shape and size of the pin 30, so that the pin 30 can reliably install the upper molded piece 121 and the retaining part 112, and reliably install the lower molded piece 122 and the retaining part 112.
[0040] The detection unit 20 includes a communication cable 21, a circuit board assembly 22, and two sensors 23. The communication cable 21 and each of the sensors 23 are connected to the circuit board assembly 22. The circuit board assembly 22 and each of the sensors 23 are embedded inside the mouthpiece body 11, and the positions of each sensor 23 correspond to the positions of each biting arm 1122. The communication cable 21 extends outward from the assembly cylinder 111. When the user bites the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122, each of the sensors 23 can detect the user's biting action, thereby realizing the communication function.
[0041] Reference Appendix Figures 1 to 3The top surface of the upper shaping piece 121 has at least one upper longitudinal rib 1213 and at least one upper transverse rib 1214. The upper longitudinal rib 1213 and the upper transverse rib 1214 intersect each other, so that the upper shaping piece 121 forms a plurality of mutually spaced upper recessed grooves 1215. In this way, during the shaping process, the upper longitudinal rib 1213 and the upper transverse rib 1214 can be better embedded in the gaps between teeth, so that the shape of the upper shaping piece 121 after shaping can better match the user's maxilla. Accordingly, the bottom surface of the lower shaping piece 122 has at least one lower longitudinal rib 1223 and at least one lower transverse rib 1224. The lower longitudinal rib 1223 and the lower transverse rib 1224 intersect each other, so that the lower shaping piece 122 forms a plurality of mutually spaced lower recesses 1225. In this way, during the shaping process, the lower longitudinal rib 1223 and the lower transverse rib 1224 can be better embedded in the gaps between teeth, so that the shape of the lower shaping piece 122 after shaping can better match the user's mandible.
[0042] Continue to refer to the appendix Figures 1 to 3 The mouthpiece body 11 includes a bottom shell portion 113 and a top cover portion 114. The top cover portion 114 is formed on the bottom shell portion 113 such that a partial structure of the bottom shell portion 113 and a partial structure of the top cover portion 114 form the mounting cylinder 111, and another partial structure of the bottom shell portion 113 and another partial structure of the top cover portion 114 form the retaining portion 112.
[0043] Specifically, the bottom shell portion 113 includes a bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131 and a bottom shell arcuate portion 1132. The bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131 extends rearward from the middle of the bottom shell arcuate portion 1132. The bottom shell arcuate portion 1132 has two bottom shell engaging tabs 11321. The air intake channel 1111 of the assembly cylinder 111 is formed in the bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131. The top cover portion 114 includes a top cover cylindrical portion 1141 and a top cover arcuate portion 1142. The top cover cylindrical portion 1141 extends rearward from the middle of the top cover arcuate portion 1142. The top cover arcuate portion 1142 has two top cover engaging tabs 11421. The secondary coating process can form the top cover portion 114 on the bottom shell portion 113. After the top cover portion 114 is formed on the bottom shell portion 113, the top cover cylindrical portion 1141 is stacked on the bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131 to form the assembly cylinder 111, and the top cover arc-shaped portion 1142 is stacked on the bottom shell arc-shaped portion 1132 to form the retaining portion 112. In this way, the top cover portion 114 can be firmly attached to the bottom shell portion 113.
[0044] The circuit board assembly 22 includes a rigid motherboard (PCB) 221 and two flexible conductive boards (FPCs) 222. Each of the conductive boards 222 is electrically connected to the motherboard 221. The communication cable 21 is electrically connected to the motherboard 221, and the sensor 23 is electrically connected to the conductive board 222. For example, the sensor 23 can be mounted on the end of the conductive board 222 opposite to the motherboard 221, so that the sensor 23 is electrically connected to the conductive board 222. (See attached...) Figures 1 to 13 In this specific example of the diving mouthpiece of the present invention, after the main board 221 is stacked on the bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131, the conductive plate 222 is stacked on the bottom shell arcuate portion 1132, and the sensor 23 is stacked on the bottom shell bite piece 11321, the top cover portion 114 is formed on the bottom shell portion 113, so that the circuit board assembly 22 and the sensor 23 are embedded inside the mouthpiece body 11, and the position of the sensor 23 corresponds to the position of the bite arm 1122, so that when the user bites the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122, each of the sensors 23 can detect the user's biting action, thereby realizing the communication function. It can be understood that since the circuit board assembly 22 and the sensor 23 are embedded inside the mouthpiece body 11, the diving mouthpiece of the present invention has better waterproof performance.
[0045] Optionally, in other specific examples of the diving mouthpiece of this utility model, both the bottom shell portion 113 and the top cover portion 114 are prefabricated, and the top cover portion 114 is installed on the bottom shell portion 113. Specifically, after the main board 221 is stacked on the bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131, the conductive plate 222 is stacked on the bottom shell arcuate portion 1132, and the sensor 23 is stacked on the bottom shell biting piece 11321, the top cover portion 114 is installed on the bottom shell portion 113 to embed the circuit board assembly 22 and the sensor 23 inside the mouthpiece body 11, and the position of the sensor 23 corresponds to the position of the biting arm 1122, so that when the user bites the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122, each of the sensors 23 can detect the user's biting action, thereby realizing the communication function.
[0046] Furthermore, the bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131 has a wire hole 11311, which extends from the side of the bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131 to the surface of the bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131 for mounting the motherboard 221. One end of the communication cable 21 extends through the wire hole 11311 of the bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131 and is connected to the motherboard 221, so that after the top cover portion 114 is formed in the bottom shell portion 113, the communication cable 21 extends outward from the mounting cylinder 111.
[0047] Preferably, the bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131 has an anti-detachment groove 11312, which is connected to the wire hole 11311. The detection unit 20 includes an anti-detachment ring 24, which is disposed at one end of the sheath of the communication cable 21. The anti-detachment ring 24 is disposed in the anti-detachment groove 11312 of the bottom shell cylindrical portion 1131. In this way, when the communication cable 21 is subjected to a large tensile force, the anti-detachment ring 24 can prevent the wire core of the communication cable 21 and the soldering or plugging position of the motherboard 221 from being subjected to force, thereby ensuring the reliability of the conductive relationship between the communication cable 21 and the motherboard 221, and thus ensuring the reliability and stability of the diving mouthpiece.
[0048] In the appendix Figures 1 to 13 In this specific example of the diving mouthpiece of the present invention, the anti-detachment ring 24 is formed at the end of the sheath of the communication cable 21 after being cured with glue. In this way, the core of the communication cable 21 will not be subjected to pressure during the process of setting the anti-detachment ring 24 to the sheath of the communication cable 21, so as to ensure the communication capability of the communication cable 21. After the anti-detachment ring 24 is set at the end of the sheath of the communication cable 21, the anti-detachment ring 24 and the sheath of the communication cable 21 can be firmly combined, preventing the anti-detachment ring 24 from sliding relative to the sheath of the communication cable 21. This is crucial for preventing the core of the communication cable 21 and the soldering or plugging position of the motherboard 221 from being stressed when the communication cable 21 is subjected to tension.
[0049] Appendix Figures 4 to 6 The shaping process of the diving mouthpiece of this invention is illustrated. Specifically, upon initial use, the diving mouthpiece is immersed in warm water, preferably around 80°C. The upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122 become malleable after being fully heated. Then, the user's upper and lower jaws bite down on the upper shaping piece 121 and the lower shaping piece 122, causing the top surface of the upper shaping piece 121 and the bottom surface of the lower shaping piece 122 to be shaped by the upper and lower jaws to match their shapes, thus allowing the diving mouthpiece to meet the user's personalized needs.
[0050] Appendix Figures 7 to 13 The manufacturing process of the diving mouthpiece of this invention is shown.
