FIG.

The medical tube holder 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a main body 100, a tube fixing portion 200, and a tongue curling preventing portion 300. The medical tube holder 10 is fixed to the mouth by biting the upper and lower parts by the teeth. Through the medical tube holder 10, it is possible to insert the medical tube t into the patient's mouth. Further, the medical tube holder 10 fixes the inserted tube to the medical tube holder 10.

Referring to Figs. 1 to 4, the main body 100 includes a front portion 105 and a tooth engaging portion 108. A tube fixing part 200 to be described later is disposed on the center side of the front part 105. The tooth engaging portion 108 is disposed on the rear side of the front portion 105 and includes an upper groove 110 and a lower groove 120 into which upper and lower teeth are respectively inserted.

The front portion 105 is disposed on the front surface of the tooth engagement portion 108 so that the medical tube t is inserted through the holes 201, 202 and 203 to be described later, And protects the gums from damage. The front portion 105 is formed wider than the tooth engaging portion 108 so that the holes 201, 202 and 203 of the tube fixing portion 200 are not shielded by the lips of the patient.

The tooth engaging portion 108 specifically includes an upper groove 110 and a lower groove 120, as shown in FIG. The upper groove 110 and the lower groove 120 are grooves for inserting upper teeth and lower teeth, respectively. The upper groove 110 and the lower groove 120 insert upper teeth and lower teeth, respectively, so that the medical tube holder 10 is fixed to the mouth. The body 100 has a curved shape along the longitudinal direction to correspond to the oral cavity structure.

The tube fixing part 200 forms three or more holes into which the medical tube t can be inserted. For example, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, three holes 201, 202, and 203 are formed. The tube fixing part 200 is formed such that the medical tube t can be inserted into one side. Specifically, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the tube fixing portion 200 is formed to be insertable with the medical tube t in the A direction. The plurality of holes form a first hole 201, a second hole 202 and a third hole 203 from the left side with reference to FIG. However, the number of holes is not limited thereto.

The medical tube holder 10 is inserted into the oral cavity after the medical tube t has been inserted before the medical tube holder 10 is placed in the mouth through the three holes disposed in the tube holder 200 . Thereby, it is possible to solve the problems of tooth deformation, displacement, dropout, etc., which may be caused by disposing the medical tube (t) directly in the oral cavity. Further, the medical tube (t) can be disposed in any one of the three holes of the tube fixing part (200), and the medical tube (t) disposed in any one of the three or more holes can be moved to the other hole , There is an advantage that the progress of the suction can be smoothly performed.

The tube fixing part 200 includes a plurality of protrusions 210 defining a plurality of holes and a medical tube t forming a clearance insertable from one side of the tube fixing part 200. 1 and 2, the tube fixing portion 200 includes first projections 211 and 212, second projections 213 and 214, and third projections 215 and 216 .

Each of the plurality of protrusions 210 is made of a material including rubber having elasticity so as to protrude from the upper side or the lower side of the tube fixing part 200 toward the other side and be easily bent when the medical tube t is inserted . Specifically, as shown in Fig. 3A, when the medical tube t is inserted through the A direction, the first protrusions 211 and 212 can be bent by the insertion of the medical tube t . The medical tube (t) may be seated in the first hole (201). Whether the medical tube t is disposed in the first hole 201 to the third hole 203 can be determined depending on the situation of the patient or the like. Therefore, when the medical tube t is to be disposed in the second hole 202 as shown in Fig. 3 (b), the medical tube t presses the second projections 213 and 214, (Not shown). 3 (c), the medical tub (t) presses the third protrusions 215, 216 and enters the third hole 203, if necessary.

The first to third protrusions 210 are respectively formed with upper protrusions 211, 213, and 215 protruding from the upper end of the tube fixing part 200 where the respective holes of the tube fixing part 200 are formed, And lower protrusions 212, 214, and 216 protruding from the lower end of the body 200 to the upper end. The upper projections 211, 213, and 215 and the lower projections 212, 214, and 216 protrude to face each other. The upper protrusions 211, 213, and 215 and the lower protrusions 212, 214, and 216 are spaced from each other to form a gap. When there is no such clearance, the upper projections 211, 213, 215 and the lower projections 212, 214, 216 cause friction and resistance to each other in the process of inserting the medical tube, . The first to third protrusions 210 may be protruded from the upper end to the lower end of the tube fixing part 200 where the holes are formed or may be formed as one protrusion protruding from the lower end of the tube fixing part 200 to the upper end It is possible. Meanwhile, the first to third holes 201 to 203 are formed such that a tube for suction can be inserted so as to suck liquid accumulated in the mouth.

The tube fixing part 200 has a curved part 208 recessed in a curved shape corresponding to the outer shape of the medical tube so that the medical tube can be easily inserted into one side of the tube fixing part 200 where the medical tube is inserted . Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, the left side surfaces of the first protrusions 211 and 212 formed on the left side of the first hole 201 are recessed inwardly corresponding to the outer shape of the medical tube. Thus, the medical tube can be easily drawn toward the first hole 201 by pressing the first protrusions 211 and 212. Further, the curved portion 208 serves to guide the medical tube to be easily inserted into the tube fixing portion 200.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, both longitudinal sides of the tube fixing part 200 further include an anti-slip protrusion 205 protruding more than the length of the main body 100. The blocking preventive protrusion 205 serves to spread the user's lips to both sides so that the tube fixing portion 200 is not covered by the user's lips when the medical tube holder 10 is fixed to the mouth.

The tongue curling preventing portion 300 protrudes from the back surface of the main body 100 so as to reduce the tongue curling when the medical tube holder 10 is worn. The tongue curling preventing portion 300 further includes a support bending portion 310 configured to bend the end portion downward so as to be stably supported on the tongue. When the tongue curling preventing part 300 is formed in a straight line, a space may be formed on the inner side between the tongue curling preventing part 300 and the tongue because the tongue is positioned lower toward the inside. At this time, the tongue curling preventing portion 300 may not be able to stably support the tongue. Therefore, the support bending portion 310 is formed so that the end portion is bent downward so as to be stably supported on the tongue.

In addition, the tongue curling preventing portion 300 includes a support protrusion 320 protruding from the surface facing the tongue so as to be stably mounted on the tongue. When the tongue curling preventing portion 300 is in contact with the tongue for a long time, the tongue may be negatively affected. Therefore, the tongue curling preventing portion 300 may include a supporting protrusion 320 so as to separate the tongue from the lower side of the tongue curling preventing portion 300 so as to prevent contact with the tongue for a long time. For example, four support protrusions 320 may be formed as shown in the drawing. However, the number of the support protrusions 320 is not limited thereto.

The main body 100, the tube fixing part 200, and the tongue curling preventing part 300 may be integrally formed, or two or more of them may be integrally formed, It is possible.

The medical tube holder 20 shown in Fig. 5 is different from the medical tube holder 10 shown in Figs. 1 to 4 in that the shapes of the third projections 215 'and 216' and the shapes of the auxiliary projections 220 And the other components are the same or similar, and thus they are omitted for convenience of explanation.

Referring to FIG. 5, the third projections 215 'and 216' include upper projections 215 'and lower projections 216'.

As described above, the upper projection 215 'protrudes downward from the upper side of the tube fixing part 200. The lower protrusion 216 'protrudes upward from the lower side of the tube fixing part 200 and confronts the upper protrusion 215'. And a fitting protrusion 215'a in which a central portion of the upper protrusion 215 'further protrudes downward. A fitting groove 216'a is formed at a central portion of the lower protrusion 216 'so as to fit the fitting protrusion 215'a of the upper protrusion 215'. The fitting groove 216'a covers both sides of the fitting projection 215'a. However, the fitting structure of the upper protrusion 215 'and the lower protrusion 216' is not limited to the above-described structure, but at least a part of one of the upper protrusion 215 'and the lower protrusion 216' Or other structures that are interlocked and interlocked with each other.

As the upper grooves and the lower grooves are inserted into the teeth and the main body is pressed upward and downward, the first to third protrusions 210 'of the tube fixing portion 200 can be contacted with each other and pressed. At this time, when the force applied to the first to third protrusions 210 'is increased, the upper protrusions 211, 213, 215' and the lower protrusions 212, 212 'of the first to third protrusions 210' 214 and 216 'are offset from each other and the tube fixing portion 200 can be deformed. The upper protrusions 215 'and the lower protrusions 216' are vertically extended through the structure of the upper protrusions 215 'and the lower protrusions 216' of the third protrusions 215 'and 216' It is possible to reduce misalignment due to external force.

Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 5, the third hole 203 is formed in a rectangular shape. Since the third hole 203 is formed in a rectangular shape, the medical tube inserted into the third hole 203 can be freely moved leftward or rightward. At this time, the auxiliary protrusion 220 protrudes so as to restrict the free movement of the medical tube inserted into the third hole 203. For example, the auxiliary protrusions 220 may be formed at four locations so that the medical tubes may be disposed on the left or right side in the third hole 203, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The auxiliary protrusion 220 can fix the medical tube inserted into the third hole 203. [ However, holes other than the third holes 203 may be formed in a rectangular shape, or rectangular holes may not be formed.
