Abstract

1,038,829. Signalling undesirable tongue movements. H. W. TEPPER. Sept. 8, 1964 [June 17,1964], No. 36714/64. Heading A5R. Apparatus for giving a stimulus when the tongue is incorrectly thrust forward comprises a support 12 positionable against the palate with its front edge adjacent the upper incisors and a stimulus means in the support and having a tongueengaging portion, e.g. electrodes 16, depending from the front edge of the support. Electrical cells 18 are embedded in a plastic palate plate 12 and connected in series with a pair of electrodes 16 which, when the palate plate is positioned in the mouth project from it towards the upper incisors. The palate plate is secured in the mouth by clasps 14. When the tongue approaches the incisors closely, it makes the electrode circuit and receives a shock. Each cell 18 may be of conventional type completely embedded in the palate plate or comprise plates of two dissimilar metals e.g. zinc and silver or copper, separated by a wooden plate and located in a recess in the palate plate so that the patients saliva furnishes the electrolyte.
