Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] It quickly eliminates nasal congestion when a cold or allergic rhinitis such as hay fever develops, and at the same time heals throat inflammation quickly and reduces inflammation in the nasal cavity. It is a thing. [Structure] Made of plastic, rubber, etc., has a symmetrical shape and is bifurcated, with a hole at the tip, a hollow inside and a hole communicating with the outside air at the other end, At the same time as breathing air comes in and goes out through both holes, it forms a protrusion to be inserted into the septum of the nose.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 It is a device to eliminate stuffy nose due to inflammation of the nose and throat.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 There are products on the market that use a spoid or a nasal discharge device that uses a piston to eliminate a baby's stuffy nose. There is chemotherapy with other drugs, and there are nasal drops that inject the drug in a spray form, disperse it in the nasal cavity, and temporarily expand it.

[0003]

[Problems that the device is trying to solve]

 As a method of eliminating nasal congestion when a cold or allergic rhinitis such as hay fever is developed, there are methods using a drug to be taken, or nasal drops that are directly inserted into the nasal cavity and spray the nasal spray on mucous membranes. , There is a problem in effectiveness when they lose timing of drinking or when they have a lot of runny nose. Depending on the situation, the effects may be weakened, become chronic, or even worse.

Nasal congestion, especially during sleep at night, is very painful and results in sleeping with the mouth open. The cause of stuffy nose is that the mucous membrane of the throat is inflamed, and at the same time, the mucous membrane in the nasal cavity is also swelled, the autonomic nerve becomes sensitive, and the function of blocking the air passing through the nasal cavity works, Causes a stuffy nose. Therefore, opening your mouth and breathing with your mouth while you are sleeping causes the outside air to directly contact the inflamed area of your throat, which causes bacteria and other dry air to cause further deterioration of the inflamed area. For this reason, it causes a great deal of pain such as sleeping with a mask on the mouth and waking up in the middle of the night to make a nausea.

The present invention proposes a device which can be used as an auxiliary means for directly, reliably and promptly recovering from such a symptom. A baby "nasal discharge device" is commercially available as a commonly used product, but its original purpose, method of use, action and effect, and structure are completely different.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a pocket-sized, simple and inexpensive device that is safe, convenient and can be carried everyday.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 A method of relieving nasal congestion using a physical method without resorting to chemical agents, which is made of a material such as plastic or rubber with a smooth surface so as not to damage the nasal cavity that is obstructed. The molded body is inserted into the nasal cavity and the mucous membrane of the nose is expanded and fixed to the nasal septum so that respiratory air can pass through the cavity inside the tube.

[0008]

【Example】

 An embodiment of a breathing apparatus according to the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. The contents of the present invention are shown in FIGS. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a state of being directly inserted into a human nasal cavity, as shown in FIG. .

[0009] Normally, since the human nasal cavity is symmetrical, this embodiment also has a symmetrical structure. The bifurcated distal end a has a smooth radius R, and has an appropriate hardness so as not to damage the mucous membrane during insertion. The material is selected. In addition, a hole b is formed at the center of the two tips and serves as an inlet / outlet for respiratory air.

The rear end portion c is continuously integrated on the left and right, and has a hole d in the center thereof. Since it communicates with the inner part of the nasal cavity and the inner cavity through the hole b and the hole d that contacts the outside air through e in FIG.

[0012] Smooth protrusions f are symmetrical inside and outside of the rear part, and after inserting this device into the nasal cavity, the structure is such that it can be engaged by the nasal septum at the center of the nose tip and can be pinched by a sneeze or the like. Do not drop it.

The holes b communicating with the inside of the nasal cavity and the holes d communicating with the outside air may be two or more as in the embodiment shown in FIG. This is selected according to the amount of air passing through, the structural strength, and the difficulty level of production, so the elasticity and ease of use are also taken into consideration.

[0013]

[Effect of device]

 As described at the beginning, when the nasal cavity is occluded, by inserting the device of the present invention and physically obtaining the circulation of respiratory air, it helps to quickly cure the inflammation of the mucous membrane of the throat, The nasal cavity, which has a cold and is inflamed, also subsides, and as a result, nasal congestion is cleared quickly. It is small, safe, easy to handle, and convenient to carry, and if it is used under a mask during the day, it cannot be seen from the outside and does not give a nasal voice during daily conversation or answering a telephone. You can sleep well without hurting your throat. Of course, it can be easily judged from the structure that it can be provided at low cost.
