Benefits of technology

The technical effect of this invention is that it provides similar benefits compared with previous methods like adding extra components or modifying existing systems.

Problems solved by technology

This patent describes a system called a lingual pressure measurement device that can help users improve their ability to breathe through their teeth when they are struggling with swallowing difficulties. It uses a specialized mechanism made up of an elastic balloon inside a tube, and a grip to hold it securely. When the user presses down on this device, there's a pressure detection sensor detecting how much force has been applied. This data is then transmitted wirelessly to a control module where a computer program analyzes the data and sends instructions to a display showing the pressure values.

Embodiment Construction

[0034]An exemplary embodiment of the invention will be described below with reference to the attached drawings.

[0035]FIG. 1 shows an overall arrangement of a lingual pressure strengthening training device of the exemplary embodiment. The lingual pressure strengthening training device of the exemplary embodiment serves also as a lingual pressure measuring device for training.

[0036]As shown in FIG. 1, the lingual pressure strengthening training device includes a device body 1 and an elastic balloon 2 provided to the device body 1.

[0037]The elastic balloon 2, which has a restoring force, includes a balloon body 21 configured to be inserted in a mouth and a tube 22 having an end connected to the balloon body 21. Air is to be introduced into the elastic balloon 2 through an opening of a base end of the tube 22.

[0038]FIGS. 2 to 4 show an overall arrangement of the device body 1.

[0039]As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the device body 1 includes a casing 3.

[0040]The casing 3 includes a synthetic resin

Abstract

A device includes: a controller that converts a pressure value detected by a pressure detector into visual or aural lingual pressure information changed depending on a magnitude of the pressure value; and an information output unit, such as a buzzer and a color display LED, that outputs the lingual pressure information in response to a signal from the controller. The information output unit outputs lingual pressure information different depending on a pressing force applied on an elastic balloon by a tongue, allowing users such as patients and elderly people to continue a training without being bored.
