Solution Overview

Problem

Current methods lack an effective solution for training proper breathing techniques that engage inspiratory muscles and nerves, failing to maximize lung development and improve overall body quality.

Innovation Solution

A respiratory pressure training strap with waist-back, shoulder, chest, and belly straps equipped with respiratory pressure regulators, which apply adjustable pressure to assist in establishing correct breathing posture and muscle training.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If respiratory pressure regulators are added to train inspiratory muscles and nerves, then breathing training effectiveness is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvebreathing training effectivenessVSAvoiddevice complexity

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The device is divided into multiple independent straps (waist-back, chest, belly, shoulder) each with its own respiratory pressure regulator. This segmentation allows each component to perform a specific function while maintaining overall system effectiveness for comprehensive breathing training.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The respiratory pressure training strap serves multiple functions: it trains inspiratory muscle groups, enhances inspiratory nerve sensitivity, corrects respiratory posture, and can be adjusted for different users. The single device integrates what would otherwise require multiple separate training tools.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Reliability

If multiple straps with pressure regulators are used to correct respiratory posture and train muscles, then breathing technique improvement is enhanced, but ease of operation deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvebreathing technique improvementVSAvoidease of operation

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The chest strap is designed with movable connections to the shoulder straps, allowing it to be adjusted up and down along the shoulder straps. This dynamic adjustment capability enables users to customize the fit and position according to their body type and comfort requirements.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

Each respiratory pressure regulator features adjustable pressure parameters, allowing users to modify the tightness and pressure applied by each strap. This enables gradual progression from lower to higher pressure settings as users improve their breathing techniques.
