El objeto de la invención es proporcionar un dispositivo que se implante en las cavidades nasales del usuario, de manera que, controlando la respiración, permita tener libre la boca a la hora de comer o beber en restaurantes o cualquier otro lugar que se estime conveniente de forma totalmente segura.The object of the invention is to provide a device that is implanted in the nasal cavities of the user, in such a way that, by controlling breathing, it allows the mouth to be free when eating or drinking in restaurants or any other place that is deemed convenient. totally safe way.
Así pues, el filtro de la invención tiene por objeto sustituir u ofrecer una alternativa a las clásicas mascarillas higiénicas, sanitarias, FPP2, N90, N95 y similares.Thus, the filter of the invention is intended to replace or offer an alternative to the classical hygienic, sanitary masks, FPP2, N90, N95 and the like.
La invención resulta igualmente de especial aplicación a la hora de comunicarse con personas sordomudas, comunicación que hasta ahora resultaba sumamente compleja cuando se tiene la cara parcialmente tapada con una mascarilla.The invention is also of special application when communicating with deaf-mute people, communication that until now was extremely complex when the face is partially covered with a mask.
Antecedentes de la invenciónBackground of the invention
Actualmente se usan diferentes tipos de mascarillas como medio de filtrado para virus, bacterias y otros microorganismos que si bien cumplen satisfactoriamente la función para la que han sido previstas, presentan un cuerpo filtrante que cubre la nariz y la boca, lo que impide su uso durante las maniobras de ingesta de comidas o bebidas, e incluso dificulta el entendimiento entre personas cuando estas están hablando, por lo que es habitual que dichos usuarios retiren momentáneamente la mascarilla para estas operaciones con el consiguiente peligro de ser infectado.Currently, different types of masks are used as a filtering medium for viruses, bacteria and other microorganisms that, although they satisfactorily fulfill the function for which they were intended, have a filtering body that covers the nose and mouth, which prevents their use during the maneuvers of ingestion of food or drinks, and even makes it difficult to understand between people when they are talking, so it is common for said users to momentarily remove the mask for these operations with the consequent danger of being infected.
A mayor abundamiento, este tipo de dispositivos suelen ser incómodos, antiestéticos y en ocasiones difíciles de adaptar a la fisonomía o dimensiones faciales tan variables que puede haber entre unos y otros usuarios.Furthermore, these types of devices are usually uncomfortable, unsightly and sometimes difficult to adapt to the physiognomy or facial dimensions so variable that there may be between users.
Explicación de la invenciónExplanation of the invention
El filtro nasal para virus, bacterias y otros microorganismos que se preconiza resuelve de forma plenamente satisfactoria la problemática anteriormente expuesta, en base a una solución sencilla pero de gran eficacia.The recommended nasal filter for viruses, bacteria and other microorganisms fully satisfactorily solves the aforementioned problems, based on a simple but highly effective solution.
Para ello, y de forma más concreta, el filtro de la invención se materializa en un cuerpo tubular, que podrá presentar una configuración cilíndrica, en tronco de cono, de sección ovalada, elíptica o cualquier sección que permita una cierta adaptación a las paredes internas de la nariz en función de las diferentes variantes anatómicas que ésta suele presentar (leptorrino, mesorrino y platirrino), cuerpo tubular en el que se incorpora preferentemente sobre una de sus bases una capa de un elemento filtrante, quedando la otra abierta.For this, and more specifically, the filter of the invention is embodied in a tubular body, which may have a cylindrical, truncated cone, oval, elliptical or any section that allows a certain adaptation to the internal walls. of the nose depending on the different anatomical variants that it usually presents (leptorhine, mesorhine and platyrhine), a tubular body in which a layer of a filtering element is preferably incorporated on one of its bases, leaving the other open.
El filtro se introduce en cada una de las fosas nasales de manera que permite el uso de la boca para hacer cualquiera de sus funciones propias hablar beber etc., de manera que éste simplemente debe ser consciente de inspirar por la nariz y expirar el aire hacia abajo por la boca, eliminando el efecto aerosol, si bien se puede expirar el aire igualmente por la nariz. The filter is inserted into each of the nostrils in a way that allows the use of the mouth to do any of its own functions, speak, drink, etc., so that it You just have to be aware of breathing in through your nose and breathing down through your mouth, eliminating the aerosol effect, although you can also breathe out through your nose.
El objetivo es evitar el movimiento del filtro y su accidental expulsión con lo que se evitaría la entrada de aire entre la mucosa nasal.The objective is to prevent the filter from moving and its accidental expulsion, thereby preventing the entry of air between the nasal mucosa.
La capa filtrante de este puede colocarse en el interior o en el exterior de la fosa nasal. Se recomienda que sea en la interior para evitar la posible expulsión o movimiento del cilindro. The filter layer of this can be placed on the inside or outside of the nostril. It is recommended that it be inside to avoid possible expulsion or movement of the cylinder.
Dado que la fisonomía de cada usuario es distinta, y si bien el dispositivo se podrá fabricar en distintas tallas, se ha previsto que el mismo esté ligeramente infradimensionado externamente, de manera que en su adaptación a la nariz determine una pequeña holgura, holgura que se eliminará mediante la inclusión de un anillo externo de espuma de poliuretano, goma, o material esponjoso que no permitirá que hace las veces de junta de estanqueidad impidiendo del paso del aire por otro sitio que no sea la zona de filtrado del dispositivo.Given that the physiognomy of each user is different, and although the device can be manufactured in different sizes, it has been foreseen that it is slightly undersized externally, so that in its adaptation to the nose it determines a small clearance, a clearance that is It will be eliminated by including an external ring of polyurethane foam, rubber, or spongy material that will not allow it to act as a sealing gasket, preventing the passage of air through another place other than the filtering area of the device.
La capa filtrante del dispositivo será de un material apropiado, del mismo tipio de los usados en las actuales mascarillas con varias capas (propileno poliéster, algodón etc.) y del tipo P2.The filtering layer of the device will be made of an appropriate material, of the same type as those used in current multilayer masks (polypropylene, cotton, etc.) and of the P2 type.
El cuerpo tubular presentará un diámetro entre 2 y 20 milímetros, una longitud de entre 1 mm y 100 mm y un espesor de pared de entre 0,1 y 2 milímetros dependiendo de las características de las fosas nasales del usuario.The tubular body will have a diameter between 2 and 20 millimeters, a length between 1 mm and 100 mm and a wall thickness between 0.1 and 2 millimeters depending on the characteristics of the user's nostrils.
Este debe tener la elasticidad, adherencia y anclaje para que se sujete al interior de la fosa nasal y no se mueva ni se salga.This must have the elasticity, adherence and anchorage so that it is attached to the inside of the nostril and does not move or come out.
En tal sentido se ha previsto que opcionalmente que el mismo pueda incorporar sobre su cara externa y en correspondencia con el anillo de adaptación un adhesivo del tipo usado para otras actividades médicas.In this sense it has been provided that optionally it can incorporate on its external face and in correspondence with the adaptation ring an adhesive of the type used for other medical activities.
De acuerdo con otra variante de realización del dispositivo, el mismo podría incluir un brazo o clip externo que se adapte alrededor del borde de la nariz, inmovilizando debidamente el dispositivo.According to another alternative embodiment of the device, it could include an external arm or clip that fits around the edge of the nose, duly immobilizing the device.
El material del dispositivo puede ser un plástico de los actualmente utilizados en medicina como PVC polietileno, polipropileno etc. o aluminio, acero inoxidable, grafeno, etc.The material of the device can be a plastic currently used in medicine such as PVC, polyethylene, polypropylene, etc. or aluminum, stainless steel, graphene, etc.
En cuanto a la capa filtrante, ésta puede estar unida al cilindro de forma inamovible o presentar un carácter desmontable, mediante un anillo roscado, pegado o elementos de clipado.As for the filter layer, it can be immovably attached to the cylinder or have a removable character, by means of a threaded ring, glued or clipping elements.
Para garantizar el buen funcionamiento del dispositivo, se ha previsto que éste inicialmente venga asistido con un precinto retirable que obture el interior del cuerpo tubular, en orden a permitir asegurar que una vez implantado el dispositivo el aire no entra a través del hueco que se define entre la pared exterior del dispositivo y las paredes internas de la nariz, zona que queda aislada a través del ya comentado anillo de espuma.To ensure the proper functioning of the device, it has been foreseen that it initially comes assisted with a removable seal that seals the inside of the tubular body, in order to ensure that once the device is implanted, the air does not enter through the gap that is defined. between the outer wall of the device and the inner walls of the nose, an area that is isolated through the aforementioned foam ring.
Una vez comprobada la estanqueidad del dispositivo se podrá retirar el precinto, pasando a ser totalmente funcional el dispositivo.Once the watertightness of the device has been verified, the seal can be removed, the device becoming fully functional.
Solo resta señalar por último que, el dispositivo puede estar impregnado de algún producto que evite la congestión nasal. It only remains to point out, finally, that the device may be impregnated with a product that prevents nasal congestion.
Se consigue de esta forma un dispositivo sumamente versátil, cómodo, que pasa desapercibido, seguro y económico.In this way, an extremely versatile, comfortable device is achieved, which goes unnoticed, safe and economical.
