  Vorrichtung zur Verhinderung des Schnarchens
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Verhinderung des Schnarchens. Zahlreiche Menschen leiden unter diesem   Übel    und seinen unangenehmen Begleiterscheinungen, wie z. B. ausgetrockneten Luftwegen, Hustenreiz usw. Zudem wirkt der Schnarchlärm auf Familienangehörige,   jia    selbst Nachbaren, sehr störend.



   Die Ursache des Schnarchens ist eine behinderte Nasenatmung, hervorgerufen durch Verengung der   Nasenhöhlen.    Die Erfindung gibt nun eine Vorrichtung an, mit der diese Verengung behoben und damit das   Schnarchen    verhindert wird.



   Die   erfindungsgemässe    Vorrichtung ist   gakennzeich-    net durch zwei beweglich miteinander verbundene, sich verjüngende, rohrförmige Teile, welche je einen Querwulst auf den benachbarten Partien der   Ausseuflächen    der beiden rohrförmigen Teile aufweisen.



   In der Zeichnung ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Vorrichtung dargestellt, und zwar in Fig. 1 im Schnitt und in Fig. 2 im Aufriss.



   Die beiden rohrförmigen Teile 1 und 2 sind durch einen Verbindungsteil 3 miteinander verbunden. Die Teile 1 und 2, welche in die   Nasenhöhlen    einzuführen sind, weisen eine sich verjüngende Form auf, wobei die einander benachbarten Partien la, 2a der Aussenseiten abgeflacht sind. Dadurch bilden die rohrförmigen Teile eine ihrem Verwendungszweck bestens entsprechende Form. Zwei   Querwülste    4 und 5 geben der Vorrichtung in Gebrauchslage den erforderlichen Halt.



   Der Verbindungsteil 3 weist an seinen Enden abgeflachte Köpfe 3a und 3b auf. Vorzugsweise ist er aus formbarem Material hergestellt, zum Beispiel aus   Draht;    der Zwischenraum zwischen den Teilen 1 und 2 sowie deren gegenseitige Stellung sind dann einstellbar. Es ist natürlich auch möglich, als Verbindungsteil 3 einen Nylonfaden zu verwenden.



   De rohrförmigen Teile 1 und 2 können aus einem rostfreien Metall hergestellt sein. Vorzugsweise wird jedoch für diese Teile ein von Hand verformbares, z. B. wachs ähnliches Material verwendet, was dem Benützer der Vorrichtung die Möglichkeit gibt, diese selber so zu formen, dass sie die für ihn am besten geeignete Form annimmt.  



   PATENTANSPRUCH
Vorrichtung zur Verhinderung des Schnarchens, gekennzeichnet durch zwei beweglich miteinander ver  bundene,    sich verjüngende rohrförmige Teile mit je einem   Querwulst    auf den einander zugekehrten Partien der Aussenflächen der   beiden    rohrförmigen Teile.



   UNTERANSPRUCH
Vorrichtung nach Patentanspruch, dadurch   gekenn-    zeichnet, dass die rohrförmigen Teile und die   Querwülste    aus plastisch verformbarem Material bestehen.

  Device for preventing snoring
The present invention relates to a device for preventing snoring. Numerous people suffer from this evil and its unpleasant side effects, such as B. dried out airways, coughing, etc. In addition, the snoring noise has a very annoying effect on family members, even neighbors.



   The cause of snoring is obstructed nasal breathing, caused by narrowing of the nasal cavities. The invention now specifies a device with which this constriction is eliminated and thus snoring is prevented.



   The device according to the invention is characterized by two movably connected, tapering, tubular parts which each have a transverse bead on the adjacent parts of the outer surfaces of the two tubular parts.



   In the drawing, an embodiment of the device is shown, namely in Fig. 1 in section and in Fig. 2 in elevation.



   The two tubular parts 1 and 2 are connected to one another by a connecting part 3. The parts 1 and 2, which are to be inserted into the nasal cavities, have a tapering shape, the adjacent parts la, 2a of the outer sides being flattened. As a result, the tubular parts form a shape that best suits their intended use. Two transverse beads 4 and 5 give the device the necessary support in the position of use.



   The connecting part 3 has flattened heads 3a and 3b at its ends. Preferably it is made of a malleable material, for example wire; the space between the parts 1 and 2 and their mutual position can then be adjusted. It is of course also possible to use a nylon thread as the connecting part 3.



   The tubular parts 1 and 2 can be made of a stainless metal. Preferably, however, a deformable by hand, z. B. wax-like material is used, which gives the user of the device the opportunity to shape it himself so that it assumes the shape most suitable for him.



   PATENT CLAIM
Device for preventing snoring, characterized by two movably connected to one another, tapering tubular parts, each with a transverse bead on the facing parts of the outer surfaces of the two tubular parts.



   SUBClaim
Device according to patent claim, characterized in that the tubular parts and the transverse beads consist of plastically deformable material.
