7 results about "Nostril" patented technology

A nostril (or naris /ˈnɛərɪs/, plural nares /ˈnɛəriːz/) is one of the two channels of the nose, from the point where they bifurcate to the external opening. In birds and mammals, they contain branched bones or cartilages called turbinates, whose function is to warm air on inhalation and remove moisture on exhalation. Fish do not breathe through their noses, but they do have two small holes used for smelling, which may, indeed, be called nostrils.

Nasogastric tube fixation device

ActiveJP1831109SNostrilAdhesive belt
The article relating to this design is a nasogastric tube fixing device for guiding a nasogastric tube inserted into the nostril to the side of the patient's face and holding it in place. As shown in Reference Figure 3, which illustrates the state of use, the nasogastric tube is fitted into fixing grooves extending from the center of the main body in the left and right directions, and the ends of the main body are attached to the cheek area with fixing tape, so that the nasogastric tube is held in a state that makes it difficult to come off. Also, as shown in Reference Figures 2 and 3, which illustrate the state of use, elongated holes are formed at both ends of the main body, which also serve as retainers, and the device can also be used in a form in which a separate band is connected to these elongated holes and attached around the head. When using the band, it can be fixed without using fixing tape alone, and the device is designed to be easy to use with consideration for skin irritation, and it can also be used to hold the tube securely even when adhesion is difficult due to the shape of the area under the nose, such as when there is a beard or when there are no front teeth.

Wearable device for measuring bidirectional nostril airflow

PendingGB2702914ANostrilPhysical medicine and rehabilitation
A wearable device 100 for being worn on a nose of a person, comprises a main body 10 comprising: a ring portion; a first sensor housing 21 fixed to a first end of the ring portion; a second sensor housing 22 fixed to a second end of the ring portion; a power supply unit configured to supply electrical power; a controller; and a communication unit configured to perform communication with an external device. The first sensor housing 21 and the second sensor housing 22 are configured to be coupled to the nose, wherein the first sensor housing 21 comprises a first airflow sensor unit, wherein the first airflow sensor unit is configured to measure an airflow out of a first nostril of the nose and measure an airflow into the first nostril of the nose. The controller is configured to control the communication unit to transmit the measured airflow out of the first nostril and the measured airflow into of the first nostril to the external device. The first airflow sensor unit may comprise two sensors which measure airflow in and out of the nostril respectively. Figure 1

Nasal breathing sensing device

A wearable device for being worn on a nose of a person comprises a main body 10 configured to be coupled to the septum of the nose. A first sensor housing 21, fixed to the main body, comprises a first sensor unit, which is configured to detect an airflow out of a first nostril, and detect airflow into the first nostril. The device may comprise a first sensor to measure airflow out of the first nostril and a second sensor to measure airflow into the first nostril. The first sensor housing may be configured to divert the flow path of air flowing out of the first nostril away from the second sensor, and may divert the air flowing into the first nostril away from the first sensor. The sensors may comprise temperature, humidity, heart rate and / or pressure sensors. A processor may calibrate the first sensor unit based on the nasal shape of the user, and may adjust the sampling rate of the first sensor unit based on the noise of the data obtained. Fig. 5

Nose sensor, system and method for determining physiological information of a subject

PendingCN122318938ANostrilMedicine
This invention relates to a nasal sensor (10, 110, 210), system, and method for determining physiological information of an object. The nasal sensor includes a nasal fixator (11, 12, 13), a light emitter (20, 21), a photodetector (30, 31), and one or more detection modification elements (40, 41, 42, 43, 45). The light emitter is fixed to a first support and configured to emit light within at least one wavelength range toward a second nostril. The photodetector is fixed to the first or second support and configured to detect light within at least one wavelength range. The one or more detection modification elements are fixed to the second support and configured to change the amount of light detected by the photodetector based on the direction of gas flow within the second nostril.

A micro-mirrored nose mask

This invention discloses a miniature glasses-style nasal mask, relating to the field of respiratory protective equipment. The nasal mask includes: a frame, an inner tube, an outer tube, filter cotton, a fixing cap, and a one-way valve. The frame is integrally formed in a sheet shape. The two temples form an angle of ≤15 degrees with the inner tube to clamp the sides of the nose, and the two inner tubes clamp the nasal septum, working together to ensure the nasal mask fits snugly and is not easily dislodged. The inner and outer tubes are located on the inner and outer sides of the frame, coaxial, and integrally connected. A one-way valve is located inside a thin tube with a cover and side holes protruding from the root surface of the outer tube. The inner tube is short and fitted with a thin latex tube, which is inserted into the nostril and seals the nasal cavity. The filter cotton is conventional, round, and has the same cross-section as the outer tube opening. The fixing cap presses the filter cotton to seal the outer tube opening and is preferably fixed to the outer tube opening by screwing. A round hole is opened at the center of the cap. Beneficial effects: Air is inhaled through the filter cotton and exhaled through the one-way valve, ensuring unobstructed breathing; easy to seal and fill, the whole structure is not easily dislodged, miniature and simple, with a simple structure and low cost.
