Description

  The present invention relates to an abdominal breathing assistance device for learning the abdominal breathing method.

  Abdominal breathing is a breathing method in which the abdomen is inflated when inhaling and the abdomen is recessed when exhaling. Abdominal breathing is said to have an effect on health promotion because it can absorb a lot of oxygen into the body. Usually, a person is performing chest breathing, and abdominal breathing accompanied by deep breathing is only performed with consciousness. Even if only consciously doing, many effects can be expected if correct abdominal breathing is performed. However, even though abdominal breathing is a breathing method that inflates and dents the abdomen, it is not so easy to perform a correct and effective abdominal breathing.

  There are several methods for abdominal breathing. For example, in yoga, there is a method called pastorica (fluffy breathing) and a breathing method called Kaparabadi. Pastorica is a breathing technique that moves the diaphragm vigorously when inhaling and exhaling. Kaparabadi, on the other hand, relaxes the belly when inhaling and slowly inhales air from the nose. When exhaling, the belly suddenly tightens and breathes out from the nose. Conventionally, various instruments and devices that are proficient in such abdominal breathing and assist in abdominal breathing have been proposed (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 3). However, these instruments and devices are intended to perform abdominal breathing that moves the diaphragm slowly when inhaling and exhaling, and do not perform abdominal breathing similar to the above Kaparabadi .

  The present invention was made from this background, and the task is to relax the belly when you inhale, and slowly inhale air from your nose, but when you exhale, breathe through your nose like Kaparabadi. An object of the present invention is to provide an abdominal breathing assistance device for learning the abdominal breathing method that blows out from the mouth instantaneously.

  The device according to claim 1 for solving the above-mentioned problem is an abdominal breathing assisting device for learning the abdominal breathing method, and the assisting device is a device main body, an inlet part, and an air resistance adjustment. The device body is formed in a square whistle shape that is hollow and expands toward the front, and the air blowing side is closed with an outlet plate that has a circular air blowing hole in the center. The air inlet part is detachably attached to the air inlet of the square whistle-like device body, and the air resistance adjusting mechanism is composed of a male screw cylindrical body having an external thread cut on the outer surface and an air resistance adjusting cap. The cylindrical body is attached outwardly to the air outlet of the air blowing hole, the air resistance adjusting cap has a bottomed cylindrical shape, the inner wall is formed with a female screw to be screwed into the male screw of the male screw cylinder, and the side wall is cylindrical. A plurality of air blowing slits extending in the direction are formed, and when the male screw cylindrical male screw is screwed into the female screw part, the size of the slit changes because a part of the air blowing slit is blocked by the male screw cylindrical body. The falling plate mechanism is configured to change the air resistance applied to the air flow to be blown out. 1 is mounted around the rotation axis in a range of 0 to 180 degrees with respect to the substrate surface, and is attached so that the surface overlaps the substrate surface at a fall position of 0 degrees or 180 degrees parallel to the substrate surface. Or a plurality of rectangular tumbling plates, and a small hole for air blowing through the substrate is formed on the substrate below the tip of each tumbling plate in a state where the tumbling plate falls to 0 degrees or 180 degrees. When the air is blown out from the small holes, the overturning plate that has closed the small holes is blown up and rotated, and is rotated 180 degrees to fall to the opposite side. This is an abdominal breathing assistance device.

  According to this configuration, when the air is blown into the apparatus main body with a certain level of momentum, the overturning plate rotates 180 ° and falls to the opposite side. Therefore, it can be determined whether or not the blowing method is satisfactory depending on whether or not the tipping plate has rotated 180 °. Furthermore, in the case of abdominal breathing, it is important to apply a constant rhythm and repeatedly exhale “Foot”, “Foot”, but when using this abdominal breathing assist device, every time you blow properly There is an advantage that it is easy to take a rhythm because the falling plate rotates to the opposite side and falls down and emits a collision sound.

  The invention described in claim 2 is the abdominal breathing assistance device according to claim 1, wherein the tipping plate is formed by bonding plates made of different materials, and the tipping plate is at 0 degrees and 180 degrees. The abdominal breathing assistance apparatus is characterized in that a different collision sound is generated when the vehicle falls over.

  Thus, if the sound generated differs depending on the falling side, it becomes easier to take the rhythm of abdominal breathing.

FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of an air resistance adjusting mechanism 4. FIG. It is explanatory drawing of the air resistance adjustment method by the air resistance adjustment cap 4b. It is an external view of the rectangular substrate 5a of the overturning plate mechanism 5. It is a block diagram of the inversion board mechanism. It is operation | movement explanatory drawing of the fall board 7 of the fall board mechanism 5. FIG.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of an abdominal respiratory assistance device according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an external view of an abdominal respiratory assistance device 1 according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view thereof. The abdominal breathing assistance device 1 includes a device main body 2, an inlet part 3, an air resistance adjusting mechanism 4, and a tipping plate mechanism 5. The apparatus main body 2 is made of a synthetic resin and is formed in a square flute shape having a hollow interior and a diameter increasing toward the front.

  As shown in FIG. 2, a cylindrical air inlet part 3 with a flange is detachably attached to the air inlet. Since it is a detachable type, it can be replaced with a blow-in part having a different diameter if necessary. An outlet portion, which is an enlarged end portion of the apparatus main body 2 that is opposite to the blowing port, is closed by an outlet plate 7 provided with a circular air blowing hole 9 in the center.

  An air resistance adjusting mechanism 4 for adjusting the blowing strength by giving air resistance to the air flow blown out from the air blowing hole 9 is attached to the blowing side of the air blowing hole 9. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the air resistance adjusting mechanism 4 includes a cylindrical male screw cylinder 4a having an external thread cut on the outer surface and an air resistance adjusting cap 4b. The externally threaded cylindrical body 4a is fixedly attached to the air outlet side of the air blowing hole 9 of the outlet plate 7 facing outward. The air resistance adjusting cap 4b is a bottomed cylindrical cap. The inner wall is formed with a female screw to be screwed into the male screw of the male screw cylindrical body 4a, and a plurality of air blowing slits 4d extending in the cylinder axial direction through the cylindrical wall. Is formed. The female screw and the slit 4d partially overlap each other, and the female screw at that portion is cut away by the slit 4d.

  FIG. 4 shows a state in which the air resistance adjusting cap 4b is screwed into the male threaded cylinder 4a. FIG. 4 (1) shows a state where the screwing depth is shallow, and FIG. 4 (2) shows a state where the screwing depth is deep. Show. As the screwing depth is increased, the tip of the screwed male screw cylinder 4a closes the slit 4d of the air resistance adjusting cap 4b. In a state where the air resistance adjusting mechanism 4 is attached to the air blowing hole 9, the air blown from the blowing port part 3 sequentially passes through the inside of the apparatus body 2, the air blowing hole 9 of the outlet plate 7, and the inside of the male screw cylindrical body 4 a. The air resistance adjusting cap 4b blows out from the slit 4d. The slit 4d of the air resistance adjusting cap 4b gives air resistance to this air flow. When the screwing depth of the air resistance adjusting cap 4b into the male threaded cylindrical body 4a is changed, the air resistance is changed by the blown air flow, and even if air is blown into the blowing port part 3 with the same strength, the air blown out from the slit 4d The flow blowing strength changes.

  A horizontal portion having an opening is formed on the upper surface of the apparatus main body 2, and a tipping plate mechanism 5 is attached to the opening. The overturning plate mechanism 5 includes a rectangular substrate 5a as shown in FIG. 5, a rotating shaft 5b attached to the surface of the longitudinal center of the substrate 5a at a right angle to the side, and supported by the rotating shaft 5b as shown in FIG. The rotating plate 5c can be rotated around the rotation axis 5b in the range of 0 to 180 degrees with respect to the substrate surface. The falling plate 5c is a rectangular thin plate, and about 1 to 3 pieces are attached.

  (1) in FIG. 6 shows a state in which all three fall plates 5c have fallen to the left side (a state in which they have fallen to a 0 degree position with respect to the surface of the substrate 5a), and (1) in FIG. It is sectional drawing along the A line. 6 (2) is a state of falling to the right side (a state of falling to a position of 180 degrees with respect to the surface of the substrate 5a), and FIG. 7 (3) is a cross-sectional view along the line AA in that state. is there. A small hole 5d for air blowing through the substrate 5a is formed in the substrate 5a on the lower side of the tip end portion of each falling plate 5c in a state where the rectangular falling plate 5c is tilted at 0 degree or 180 degrees. When the overturning plate 5c is overturned to the 0 degree position as shown in FIG. 6 (1), the three small holes 5d on the left side are blocked by the overturning plate 5c, and the three on the opposite side across the rotating shaft 5b. The small hole 5d is open and is not blocked. When the fall plate 5c falls to the 180 degree position as shown in FIG. 6 (2), it is in the opposite state.

  Next, the usage and operation of the abdominal respiratory assistance device 1 configured as described above will be described. A blowing port part 3 having a diameter in consideration of the size of the user's body and vital capacity is attached to the blowing port of the apparatus main body 2. The user holds the air inlet part 3 and inhales air from the nose while relaxing the stomach naturally. Next, the stomach is suddenly deflated, and the sucked air is blown into the apparatus main body 2 through the blowing port 3. The outlets of the blown air are slits 4d of the air resistance adjusting mechanism 4 whose size is adjusted by the screwing depth of the air resistance adjusting cap 4b into the male threaded cylinder 4a, and six air blowings of the overturning plate mechanism 5. This is a small hole 5d.

  When the size of the slit 4d of the air resistance adjusting mechanism 4 is adjusted to be small, the air pressure in the apparatus main body 2 rises at the moment when “Foot” is blown because the air resistance is large. The air whose pressure has increased tends to blow out from the six small air blowing holes 5 d of the overturning plate mechanism 5. At this time, if the overturning plate mechanism 5 has fallen to the left side and the 0 degree position as shown in FIGS. 6 (1) and 7 (1), the air to be blown out from the left small hole 5d Blow up 5c. The blown-up tipping plate 5c starts to rotate around the rotation shaft 5b as shown in (2) of FIG. When the blowing force is strong, the overturning plate 5c rotates over 90 degrees and tries to fall over on the opposite right side. If the blowing time is short, when the falling plate 5c rotates more than 90 degrees, the air blowing from the air blowing small hole 5d on the opposite side is stopped, so that the falling plate 5c receives resistance. Instead, it continues to rotate with acceleration due to the rotational moment due to gravity. And finally, as shown in (3) of FIG. 7, it falls to the right, 180 degree position, and stops. At the moment when the falling plate 5c collides with the substrate 5a, a collision sound is generated. When air is blown in the state of (3) in FIG. 7, the overturning plate 5c rotates in the opposite direction and falls to the left, and a collision sound is generated at the moment of overturning.

  As described above, in the abdominal breathing assistance apparatus 1 of the present embodiment, when the air resistance adjusting mechanism 4 is appropriately adjusted and a certain amount of momentum is applied and the air is blown into the air, the falling plate 5c rotates 180 °. Then fall to the other side. A collision sound is generated at the moment of falling. Therefore, it can be determined whether or not the blowing method is satisfactory depending on whether or not the falling sound is generated by the rotation of the falling plate 5c by 180 °. When inhaling air, relax the belly and inhale slowly through the nose, just like the Kapalabadi of yoga mentioned in “Background Techniques”. When exhaling air, air is blown into the apparatus main body 2 from the mouth. Unlike Kaparabadi, Kaparabadi exhales from the nose while it exhales from the mouth when using the abdominal respiratory support device 1.

  Although the air outlet differs when using Kaparabadi and the present abdominal breathing assistance device 1, it is common in that when exhaling together, the stomach is steeped and the diaphragm is moved rapidly upward. Thus, the abdominal breathing assistance device 1 is a device that assists abdominal breathing similar to Kaparabadi. In this abdominal breathing assistance device 1, the tipping plate 5c does not fall to the opposite side unless a certain momentum is applied and the air is exhaled, so whether or not the insufflation method should be satisfactory depending on whether or not it falls. Can be determined. Furthermore, in the case of abdominal breathing, it is also important to exhale “Foot” and “Foot” with a certain rhythm. When using this abdominal type respiratory assistance device 1, there is an advantage that it is easy to take a rhythm because the falling plate 5c falls to the left and right each time an appropriate way of blowing is performed and generates a sound.

  In addition, when the falling plate 5c falls to generate a sound, the sound that is generated at the moment of falling to the right and the sound that is generated at the moment of falling to the left are different and interesting. For this purpose, as shown in FIG. 7, the falling plate 5 c has a structure in which two plates are bonded together, and the material of the front and back plates may be changed.

  In the drawings, 1 is an abdominal breathing assistance device, 2 is a device main body, 3 is a blowing port part, 4 is an air resistance adjusting mechanism, 4a is a male screw cylindrical body, 4b is an air resistance adjusting cap, 4d is a slit, and 5 is a fall plate.
