Dysphonia Treatment Tool With Reinforced Clamping Bridges
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing dysphonia treatment tools suffer from breakage of clamping portions, which compromises their durability.
Innovation Solution
A dysphonia treatment tool with a specified bridging structure that bridges the clamping portions in regions beyond the central region, enhancing the engagement and durability of the clamping portions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a hole is formed in the bent region of the clamping portion, then the stress applied to the bent region is reduced and breakage is suppressed, but the clamping portion still suffers from breakage and lacks sufficient durability
Solution Approach 1:
The bridging portion is divided into multiple bridging sections (first bridging section and second bridging section) that connect different clamping portions at different locations. This segmentation distributes the mechanical loads and stresses across multiple connection points, preventing stress concentration at any single location and thereby suppressing breakage while enhancing overall durability.
Solution Approach 2:
Multiple clamping portions are connected and integrated through the bridging portion to form a unified structure. This merging creates a more robust system where the clamping portions work together, distributing applied forces and reducing the burden on individual components, thus improving breakage resistance and durability.
2Stability of the object's composition
If the bridging portion connects all clamping portions, then the structural integrity is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The bridging portion is segmented into multiple bridging sections that connect clamping portions in a modular fashion. This segmentation maintains structural integrity by ensuring all components are connected, while the modular nature of the segments keeps the overall device complexity manageable and facilitates easier manufacturing and assembly.

AI summary
A dysphonia treatment tool includes a pair of clamping portions that have a front surface piece arranged on a front surface of an incised thyroid cartilage, a rear surface piece arranged on a rear surface of the incised thyroid cartilage, and an end surface piece connecting the front surface piece and the rear surface piece, engaged with each of the incision ends of the incised thyroid cartilage;, and a bridging portion that bridges the pair of clamping portions. Wherein on an opposite surface to the abutting surface of the end surface piece, the bridging portion is bridging in a region from the one end side to the other end side, or in a region from the one end side to a side in a midway from the one end side to the other end side on the opposite surface to abutting surface of the end surface piece.
