Description

The present invention relates to a mouthpiece for a nasal breathing practice aid for easily promoting foreign language vocalization and hearing.

There are two breathing methods, mouth breathing and nasal breathing, for inhaling and exhaling.
The Japanese speak Japanese words by injecting air into the lungs through the mouth and breathing through the mouth through the mouth and exhaling through the mouth.

Many languages in the world, such as American, Spanish, French, and Chinese, put air into the lungs through the nose, and the air in the lungs breathes through the nasal cavity and exhales through the nose. I speak my native language.
You can either breathe air through your mouth and use "chest breathing" to move the intercostal muscles to speak your native language, or you can breathe air through your nose and use "abdominal breathing" to move your diaphragm muscles to speak your native language. The frequency intonation and the tone of the pronunciation differ depending on how you breathe.
"The frequency of the words spoken by foreigners and the frequency of Japanese spoken by Japanese people" differ depending on the way of breathing. Languages around the world have only two ways of breathing.

A phenomenon that makes it difficult for Japanese people who speak with the movement of the tongue of mouth breathing to hear because the frequency wave of the foreign language spoken with the movement of the tongue of nasal breathing is different from the wave of the Japanese frequency. However, it occurs in the Japanese brain.
In other words, it is not difficult for Japanese people to hear hearings in foreign languages, but it is a phenomenon that occurs due to differences in the way they breathe.
Also, because the human brain does not memorize and remember the words of the mother tongue with the sounds of the mother tongue, but memorizes and remembers the wavelength of the frequency of the mother tongue, the language of the wavelength of a different frequency is memorized. A phenomenon that makes it difficult to occur occurs in the Japanese brain.

However, it is quite difficult for Japanese to breathe by mouth breathing and exhaling by nasal breathing, and the movement of the Japanese tongue is the tongue when speaking Japanese immediately. It is very difficult to master correct nasal breathing because it returns to the movement of and cannot get the point of nasal breathing.

The problem that the device tried to solve

The present invention was made in view of the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, and when practicing vocalization and hearing in a foreign language, the mouthpiece of the present invention is attached to the front teeth and listened to, so that the position of the tongue can be adjusted to the upper gum. By attaching it to the mouth and blocking the ingress of air from the mouth so that you can grasp how to move the tongue and where the tongue is attached to the upper gum, you can grasp the point of nasal breathing. The purpose is to provide a mouthpiece for nasal breathing practice aids that can properly master nasal breathing.

Means to solve problems

It is a mouthpiece for nasal breathing practice aid made of soft material such as silicon rubber for foreign language vocalization. A tongue pad stopper that constitutes the lower part of the tongue pad is erected upward in the center of the scissors, and the mouthpiece of the present invention is attached to practice foreign language vocalization and hearing to learn the correct nasal breathing method. ..

Effect of the device

The mouthpiece for a nasal breathing practice assist device according to the present invention is attached so as to cover the front teeth, and by touching the tip of the tongue to the upper part 3 of the tongue pad, the mouth naturally closes and air does not enter from the mouth.
By attaching the main body, air does not enter from the mouth, the lips cover the outer peripheral surface of the mouthpiece main body, the mouth is kept closed, and the closed state where air does not enter the mouth is maintained. , The muscles of the Nasolabial fold of both noses will move, and it will be easier to breathe through the nasal cavity and exhale.

In addition, since the tip of the tongue is fixed to the upper part 3 of the tongue pad, it is a force point for strengthening the related muscles of the tongue, and the user naturally breathes through the nose. Helps improve listening to foreign languages while focusing on nasal breathing exercises, allowing you to master both nasal breathing and foreign language listening.
Then, the lower part 4 of the tongue pad is in contact with the inside of the lower lip, and by moving the lower lip up and down to speak a foreign language, the diaphragm muscles move and the foreign language can be uttered by abdominal breathing.

It is a side view schematic diagram which shows the usage situation in the lower anterior tooth example of the mouthpiece for the integrated nasal breathing practice assist device of this invention.

1 to 3 show a preferred embodiment of the nasal breathing training assist device according to the present invention, and the mouthpiece 1 for the nasal breathing training assist device includes a tongue pad stopper portion 2.
By touching the tip of the tongue to the upper part 3 of the tongue pad, the tongue attaches to the upper gums, passes through the nasal cavity, and inhales and exhales by nasal breathing.
Further, the lower part 4 of the tongue pad is in contact with the inside of the lower lip, and by moving the lower lip up and down, the diaphragm muscles move and abdominal breathing becomes possible.
Further, the front tooth scissors portion 5 is in contact with the front portion of the front teeth, the back tooth scissors portion 6 is in contact with the back side of the front teeth, and the teeth are pressed on both the front and back sides. ..

FIG. 4 is a shape changeable view of the front tooth scissors portion 5 and the back tooth scissors portion 6 of the integrated tongue rest stopper portion 2 of the present invention.
The shapes of the front tooth scissors portion 5 and the back tooth scissors portion 6 are not limited to the clasp and the intervening fixing method.

FIG. 5 is a view in which the length and shape of the integrated tongue rest stopper portion 2 of the present invention can be changed, and the length and shape of the tongue rest stopper portion 2 can be freely changed.
It is not limited to triangles, rhombuses, ellipses, hexagons, octagons, and quadrilaterals.

FIG. 6 is a view in which the tongue pad stopper portion 2 that enables the removal of the tongue pad stopper portion 2 of the present invention is fitted.

FIG. 7 is a schematic side view showing a usage situation in an embodiment in which the mouthpieces of FIGS. 1 to 6 showing the present invention are attached to the upper anterior teeth.
By touching the tip of the tongue to the upper part 3 of the tongue pad, it is possible to forcibly block air from entering through the mouth, and it becomes possible to hear a foreign language by breathing through the nose.

FIG. 8 is a schematic side view showing a usage situation in an embodiment in which the mouthpieces of FIGS. 1 to 6 showing the present invention are attached to the lower anterior teeth.
The lower part of the tongue pad 4 is in contact with the inside of the lower lip, and the lower lip is placed on the lower part of the tongue pad and the lower lip is moved up and down to speak a foreign language.

By attaching the mouthpiece for the nasal breathing practice assist device according to the present invention, air does not enter from the mouth, the lips cover the outer peripheral surface of the main body of the mouthpiece, the mouth is kept closed, and air is introduced into the mouth. By maintaining a closed state that does not enter, the muscles of the Horei line of both noses will move, and it will be easier to breathe through the nasal cavity and exhale.
In addition, since the tip of the tongue is fixed to the upper part 3 of the tongue pad, it is a force point for strengthening the related muscles of the tongue, and the user naturally breathes through the nose. Helps improve listening to foreign languages while focusing on nasal breathing exercises, allowing you to master both nasal breathing and foreign language listening.
In addition, the lower part of the tongue pad 4 is in contact with the inside of the lower lip, and the lower lip is placed on the lower part of the tongue pad and the lower lip is moved up and down to speak a foreign language so that the diaphragm muscles move and the foreign language can be spoken by abdominal breathing.
