As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the breathing practice means 40 is formed on the main body 10 to induce breathing practice of patients with articulation disorders,

It is for the patient with articulation disorder to practice breathing, and has an intake passage 41a formed vertically and long inside, and is formed on the intake passage 41a and ascends and descends through the intake passage 41a an intake hole 41b connected in communication with the upper portion of the intake passage 41a and flexible and formed at the end of the intake hose 41c to allow the intake air through the intake hose 41c. The inhalation practice member 41 composed of an inlet 41d capable of inhaling the air of the furnace 41b, and for the articulatory disorder patient to practice exhalation, and is formed long in a zigzag shape on the inside, but one end to the starting point The other end is an expiratory airway 42a divided by an end point, an expiratory airway 42b formed on the expiratory airway 42a and moving from a starting point to an end point along the expiratory airway 42a, and the expiratory airway 42a Inhalation and expiration of patients with articulation disorders through the exhalation practice member 42 consisting of an exhalation port 42c formed so that the articulation disorder patient can exhale as the starting point of the inhalation and exhalation practice members 41 and 42 It is configured to include a timer 43 that informs the duration of practice, and an inner chamber 44 formed in the lower part of the main body 10 so that the inhalation and exhalation practice members 41 and 42 can be put in and stored. .

That is, since it is desirable to accompany stable breathing in order to correct the articulation of patients with articulation disorders, patients with articulation disorders repeatedly practice inhalation and expiration breathing through the breathing training means 40. The process is as follows.

First, as shown in FIG. 4D, when the patient with articulation disorder requires inhalation breathing practice, the inspiratory breathing practice is performed while inhaling through the inhalation port 41d of the inhalation training member 41. The suction force by inhalation is transmitted to the intake passage 41a through the intake hose 41c connected thereto, so that the intake hole 41b rides the intake passage 41a and moves up and down.

That is, the patient with dysarthria inhales to the extent that the inhalation hole 41b of the inhalation passage 41a can be located at the top, but practices inhalation breathing in such a way as to keep the inhalation constant. The time to maintain breathing is maintained for the time set in the timer 43.

For example, when a time of 10 seconds is set in the timer, the timer 43 alerts the patient with an articulation disorder by an alarm when 10 seconds have elapsed so that the patient with dysarthria can easily maintain inhalation for 10 seconds.

The time is set by the timer 43, the time timer 43a notifies the set time, and music is output for the time set in the time timer 43a to inform the time, so that the type of music can be selected. It can be implemented as a music timer 43b in which at least one selection button 43b' that can be selected is formed.

Therefore, if the patient with articulation disorder is a child, the passage of the set time through the music timer 43b is notified as the start and end of friendly music such as children's songs, so that the patient's breathing practice can be performed more fun. there is.

Then, as shown in FIG. 4E, when the patient with articulation disorder is required to practice expiratory breathing, the exhalation practice is performed while exhaling through the exhalation port 42c of the exhalation training member 42. At this time, the exhalation port Exhalation through (42c) causes the expiration hole (42b) located at the start point of the expiration passage (42a) to be transported to the end point along the expiration passage (41a).

That is, the patient with articulation disorder continuously exhales through the expiration hole 42c so that the expiration hole 42b located at the starting point of the expiration passage 42a can be located at the end point of the expiration passage 41a. While practicing exhalation breathing, practice maintaining exhalation for the time set in the timer 43.

Therefore, the patient with articulation disorder is induced to effectively correct articulation while repeatedly performing inhalation and exhalation exercises through the breathing training unit 40 .

Here, the inhalation and exhalation practice members 41 and 42 can be formed transparently so that the inside can be identified, and if use is required, they can be easily recovered from the entrance chamber 44 and used, and if storage is required, Of course, it can be easily stored in the inner chamber 44.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, it is formed on the main body 10, the treatment time of the dysarthmic patient is set, and the treatment time timer 50 alarms when the set time is completed, and the It is formed on the main body 10, and a break time timer 60 is configured to set a break time for patients with dysarthria and alarm when the set time is completed.

In general, if the time to practice (treatment) the articulation correction of patients with articulation disorder is too long, the concentration of the treatment may be lowered and the correction efficiency may be lowered.

That is, as shown in FIG. 4F, the treatment time timer 50 sets the time for patients with dysarthria to be treated so that the treatment is performed for an appropriate time, and at the same time, the break timer 60 sets the time for patients with dysarthria to be treated. This is to maximize the efficiency of the patient's articulation treatment by giving a short break during the treatment process.

In the present invention, the treatment time for patients with dysarthria is set to 40 minutes through the treatment time timer 50, and the break time is set to 10 minutes through the break time timer 60. It is not set, of course.

The breathing, vocalization and articulation practice tool 100 for articulation disorder patients of the present invention composed of the above components includes the articulation practice means 20 and vocalization capable of performing the articulation (pronunciation) practice process of patients with articulation disorder. By forming the vocal training means 30 capable of practicing and the breathing training means 40 capable of practicing inhalation and expiration breathing, patients with articulation disorders can systematically receive articulation correction treatment through professional practice tools. In addition, it is very easy to transport and manage due to the structural characteristics of the articulation, vocalization, and breathing means (20, 30, 40) formed on the main body (10). Therefore, it is possible to induce articulation correction of patients with articulation disorders through professional practice tools anywhere regardless of place and location, and there is an effect of securing excellent usability of the product.

In addition, through the additional recording camera 24 and voice recording unit 25 formed on the main body 10, patients with articulation disorders can see and hear their pronunciation of words and their voices, so that their lack of A more excellent articulation correction effect can be expected while clearly recognizing the part.
