TW201529050A - Tinnitus-prevention noise-reduction earplug - Google Patents

Abstract

A tinnitus-prevention noise-reduction earplug includes an earplug body formed by a piece of soft plastic object and arranged therein at least one guide tube with a tiny caliber. The caliber of the guide tube is in a range of 0.2 to 1.8 mm (0.02 to 0.18 cm). The guide tube is hollow with its two ends being opened. The guide tube keeps a tiny air channel in the earplug body so as to allow air to pass through and keep an air pressure balance inside and outside the auditory meatus, thereby assisting users in eliminating body discomfort and tinnitus phenomenon. At the same time, because only a little external sound is allowed to enter the inner auditory meatus via the tiny air channel, most but not complete of the environmental sound is blocked, so that users do not worry about loss of communication with outside world. The earplug is particularly suitable for users who have difficulty in falling asleep due to snoring.

Description

Reduced noise earplugs without tinnitus

The invention relates to the field of physics, in particular to a technique for blocking sound transmission, in particular to a control device for environmental noise, in particular to a noise reduction earplug which does not have tinnitus.

The object of the present invention is to provide a noise-reducing earplug that does not have tinnitus. The earphone-reducing earplug of the prior art does not change the earplug in the prior art, and the original ear can be changed due to the complete blockage of the external auditory canal. The comfortable environment causes the user to have technical problems of tinnitus and physical discomfort. At the same time, since the earplugs completely block the external environmental sound, the user is likely to worry that he or she may bring such earplugs to sleep after an unpredictable situation. At the time, it is impossible to know immediately, resulting in technical problems that prevent sleep and affect physical and mental health. The earphone-reducing noise-reducing earplug of the invention can simultaneously solve the technical problem that the user suffers from tinnitus caused by complete blockage of the external auditory canal when using the earplug of the prior art, causes physical discomfort, and external environmental sound. The complete blockage caused the loss of communication with the outside world, resulting in technical problems that could not sleep comfortably and affect physical and mental health.

The working principle of the invention is that at least one small diameter catheter is arranged in the earplug body formed by a soft plastic shape, and the diameter of any one small catheter is between 0.2 and 1.8 mm (0.02 to 0.18 cm), arbitrary A small-diameter catheter is hollow, and both ends of the catheter having a small diameter are opened, and the soft plastic is surrounded by any one of the catheters. On the outer circumference, any catheter having a small diameter extends in a straight shape in the body of the earplug, or extends in a curved (curved) shape, or in a spiral shape. The any small diameter catheter maintains a small air passage in the earplug body, and the small air passage allows air to pass through, thereby balancing the air pressure inside and outside the ear canal, thereby helping to eliminate the user's physical discomfort. In addition to the tinnitus phenomenon, at the same time, because only a small amount of external environmental sound is allowed, the user can enter the inner ear canal through the small air passage, so that most of the external environment sound can be blocked, but the external environmental sound is not completely blocked. Any of the small-diameter catheters described above may extend in a curved (curved) shape or extend in a spiral shape in the body of the earplug, and further attenuate the volume in the air passage to further enter the user. The inner ear canal. The earphone-reducing noise-reducing earplug of the present invention can block most of the external environmental noise, but does not completely block the external environmental sound, and the user does not have to worry about the loss of communication with the outside world. The earphone-reducing noise-reducing earplug of the invention can simultaneously solve the tinnitus caused by the complete blockage of the external auditory canal when the earplug of the prior art is used by the user, resulting in physical discomfort and complete resistance due to external environmental sounds. Broken, causing loss of communication with the outside world, resulting in a loss of peace of mind, affecting physical and mental health. At the same time, the earplug body can effectively reduce the external environmental noise, and the earphone-reducing noise-reducing earplug of the present invention is especially suitable for people who are difficult to sleep due to snoring in a sleeping environment.

We have seen many different types of earplugs on the market. Most of the earplugs are molded with soft fillers to form earplugs that can be inserted into the ear holes. Most of these earplugs can be gently pressed into the ear holes, most of the earplugs. Soft fillers that are excellent in elasticity and can be restored as quickly as possible are also used. The quickness makes the earplugs close to the outer ear canal without any gaps, almost completely blocking the external environmental sound, and even achieves the silent and waterproof effect, but the earplugs that can reach the silent and silent effect are not necessarily perfect.

Many people wear the above-mentioned earplugs that are mostly available for silent and silent effects. When they sleep, they often feel that they have no sense of security. They will be afraid of being unrealistic. If someone else invades the room when they are sleeping? Or is there a fire? ...and worry about whether or not they will have unpredictable conditions when they fall asleep, resulting in a loss of peace of mind and serious physical and mental health.

Many people wear the earplugs that are commercially available to almost completely block the external sound. They often have tinnitus or tightly block the outer ear canal due to the earplugs of both ears, which changes the original comfortable environment in the ear and causes physical discomfort. .

Compared with the prior art, the effect of the present invention is positive and obvious. In the present invention, at least one small diameter catheter is disposed in the earplug body, and the diameter of the catheter is between 0.2 and 1.8 mm (0.02 to 0.18 cm). The catheter is hollow, and both ends of the catheter are opened, and the catheter is used. Maintain a small air passage that allows air to pass through, balancing the air pressure inside and outside the ear canal, helping to eliminate discomfort and tinnitus. At the same time, the small air passage allows only a small amount of external environmental sound, and can enter the inner ear canal of the user through the small air passage, blocking most of the external environmental sound, but does not completely block the external sound, and the catheter is The body of the earplug extends in a curved (curved) shape or extends in a spiral pattern, and further attenuates a small amount of the volume in the air passage into the inner ear canal of the user.

The noise-reducing earplug of the present invention which does not tinnitus can simultaneously solve the tinnitus caused by the complete blockage of the external auditory canal when the user uses the earplug of the prior art, causes discomfort of the body, and complete resistance due to external environmental sounds. Broken, causing loss of communication with the outside world, resulting in users can not sleep with peace of mind, affecting physical and mental health. The noise-reducing earplug of the present invention is particularly suitable for use by persons who are difficult to sleep due to snoring in a sleeping environment.
