  • Snoring is a nasty but very common physiological phenomenon, which not only affects the normal rest of the same room or neighbor, but also makes the patient's apnea cause hypoxia and even suffocation, which in turn induces a variety of diseases and endangers health. Reduce work and study efficiency until life span is reduced. The basic cause of snoring is obstruction of the respiratory tract. Clinical findings are mostly due to the internal organs of the mouth (mainly the base of the large tongue and the small tongue) being too large, too thick, or loose and deformed, causing blockage or partial blockage of the nasopharynx.

Description

可摘式口腔矫正止 f器
(1)技术领域
本发明涉及鼾症保健领域，尤其涉及一种舒适型可摘舌位矫正止鼾器， 可用 来有效防止打鼾和缓解睡眠期呼吸暂停综合症。
(2)背景技术
打鼾是一种令人讨厌却又非常常见的生理现象,不但影响同屋或邻屋人的正 常休息，还会使患者本人呼吸暂停造成缺氧甚至窒息,继而诱发多种疾病,危害身 体健康,降低工作学习效率,直至减少寿命。 打鼾的基本原因是呼吸道受阻，临床 发现大多是由于口腔的内部器官 (主要是大舌根部和小舌头)过大过长过厚或松 弛变形,造成堵塞或部分堵塞鼻咽腔所致。 治疗鼾症的方法不外乎手术法,药物 法,正压呼吸机辅助法及矫形法。其中矫形法因简单实用且无创伤无副作用而倍 有发展前途。
本人以前发明的实用新型专利 (90215295),就介绍了一种属于矫形法的镍钛 形状记忆合金止鼾器,它是用 NiTi形状记忆合金丝或片材,做成与正常舌根部或 软腭部形态相适应的施力件，作用于病人的患部 (即大舌根部和小舌头)，以起到 止鼾的作用。 然而在实际应用中,发现它有如下缺点: (1)由于主要是用于下颌，因 此常受到由大舌根部所发出的向上的推力，这个力通过卡环传导到牙齿上,会产 生犹如拔牙般的些许疼痛; (2)由于它是直接作用于患者的小舌部位,而经研究发 现,小舌附近的其他组织 (例如舌腭弓和腭扁桃体)较敏感,一不小心就容易被碰 到会引起发痒和恶心 ;(3)由于它是直接作用于患者的大舌根部，而经研究发现, 大舌的根部本身就特别敏感，更容易引起疼痛和恶心。 以上这三个缺点，曾严重 妨碍了上述发明的推广应用。
(3)发明内容
本发明的目的就是为了克服以上的缺点,提出一种舒适型可摘舌位矫正止鼾 器的技术解决方案,以扩大矫形法除打鼾的应用及效果，真正让广大患者感到更 容易接受和满意。 本发明的措施如下:采用具有足够弹性和刚度的丝带状材料, 做成主要用于上颌的相对舒适的可摘舌位矫正止鼾器,它至少由固位装置,上施 力件和 /或下施力件组成， 上下施力件的各一端 (非施力端） 与固位装置相连,所
1
确认本 述的上施力件，其另一端 (施力端),设计成止于上腭软腭腭帆之敏感位置前,与软 腭腭帆部的正常形态相适应，能适当向上 /后上抬高腭帆连同悬雍垂 (即俗称的" 小舌头")，并且不致引起周围组织的不适和恶心； 所述的下施力件,其另一端 (施 力端)，设计成止于大舌舌体的后半部之敏感位置前,与舌体后半部的正常形态相 适应,能向下 /前下足够压住大舌头而不致发生不适和恶心。 如此，得以扩大和疏 通被堵塞的呼吸道,在相对舒适的前提下，起到防止打鼾和缓解睡眠期呼吸暂停 综合症的作用。

(5)具体实施方式
参照附图 2所示,本发明的舒适型可摘舌位矫正止鼾器,主要用于上颌,由固位 装置 1,上施力件 2和 /或下施力件 3组成,上施力件和下施力件 3由具有足够弹性 和适当强度的材料 (最好如高弹性合金钢丝或钢带)制成。 上施力件 2 的非施力 端的连接体 12埋于固位装置 1，另一端即施力端设计到达患者的软腭腭帆部位 之敏感位置前并稍稍顶住。这样,一方面能有效抬高患者的软腭腭帆连同悬雍垂 (即俗称的"小舌头")以扩大口腔通道;另一方面可给软腭腭帆一个外来的加固力, 以防止它随呼吸振颤而产生鼾声。下施力件 3的非施力端的连接体 12同样埋于 固位装置 1,但另一端即施力端则一般先沿腭中缝弯向近中再向下弯向远中，设 计成间接到达患者的舌体后部,给舌体一个向下 /前下的力,这样,不但可有效牵 制住舌根,防止其向后收缩过分压迫腭帆和悬雍垂而造成鼻腔堵塞发生窒息和 打鼾，同时可显著扩大口腔内部空间,提高呼吸效率。 为了使施力件所施加的力 能均匀分布于作用部位,此外,在上下施力件 2,3 的施力端的顶部,还设计有托板 4。托板 4通常可用合成树脂 (塑料等)和 /或软性聚合体材料 (硅橡胶等)制成,大小 形状应适合于作用部位。
本发明的舒适型可摘舌位矫正止鼾器,其固位装置 1可有多种形式。如附图 2 所示,只是一种常用的样式，适用于本身牙齿固位条件尚可的打鼾患者。 该固位 装置一般由基托 5(塑料),连接杆 6(腭杆)， 直接固位体 7(卡环等)组成，将整个止 鼾器固位于患者的上颌合适位置。 根据需要,还可增加间接固位体 8(腭板 /支托 等 ),以加强固位。
参照附图 3所示,是本发明的至少由基托 5,连接杆 6(这里是唇杆)组成固位装 置的舒适型可摘舌位矫正止鼾器。其基托一般可由塑料制成,之上还可复合软性 聚合体材料 (硅橡胶等）以增加与上腭接触的柔软型；根据需要,腭侧可加连接杆 6(腭杆)以增加强度和 /或减少基托面积;唇杆上可带垂直曲以便装卸。 此种止鼾 器适用于上腭牙列状况较理想的打鼾患者。
参照附图 4所示，是本发明的至少由基托 5(环托)和直接固位体 7(夹卡 15，连 接丝 16,卡组 17,抱轴卡 18等)组成固位装置的舒适型可摘舌位矫正止鼾器。 其 环托的唇颊侧和舌腭侧可分别使用部分连接杆 （唇杆 /舌腭杆)以增加强度和 /或 减少基托面积， 还可增加间接固位体 8(腭板 /支托等)以加强固位， 此种止鼾器 适用于固位条件不太好的打鼾患者。
参照附图 5所示,是本发明的至少由附加功能件 9(这里是牙合垫)作固位装置 的舒适型可摘舌位矫正止鼾器。 要求牙合垫的牙合面有较深的沟窝覆盖牙尖及 切缘。 为了加强牢度，还可加连接杆 （舌腭杆 /唇杆)，后堤区也可封闭。 此种止鼾 器适用于牙齿固位情况较好或牙合高度较小的打鼾患者。
参照附图 6,是本发明的至少由全口义齿作固位装置的舒适型可摘舌位矫正 止鼾器。 其舌腭侧还可添加连接杆 (舌腭杆)以减少基托面积。 此种止鼾器适用 于无牙颌打鼾患者。
参照附图 7，是本发明的至少由覆合义齿或磁性种植义齿作固位装置的舒适 型可摘舌位矫正止鼾器,特点是其上带有与牙床上的附着体 /钮扣栓道或磁性种 植体 19配套的部件。适用于牙列缺省较多固位要求较高的打鼾患者。其后堤区 同样可以封闭，也可以加连接杆（舌腭杆等)或网状支架以提高强度。
参照附图 8,是本发明的至少由隐形义齿作固位装置的舒适型可摘舌位矫正 止鼾器。为了便于提高牢度和埋连接杆 （舌腭杆等)，在舌腭侧可增加基托 （塑料) 且后堤区可封闭。 此种止鼾器适用于有较高品位要求的无牙颌或缺失牙较多的 打鼾患者。
参照附图 9,是本发明的至少由连接杆 6(舌腭杆)和环状固位体 10(带环 /冠套 等)作固位装置的舒适型可摘舌位矫正止鼾器。其施力件的非施力端通过适当方 式连接在环状固位体 10上。 此种止鼾器适用于牙弓整齐备有牙间隙的打鼾患 者。
参照附图 10,是本发明的至少由上下颌牙套和颊侧连杆 11 作固位装置的舒 适型可摘舌位矫正止鼾器。 其舌腭侧可适当添加基托 (塑料),塑料基托中可埋连 接杆 （舌腭杆)。 此种止鼾器适用于由于下颌后缩复合舌位不正常共同引起打鼾 的患者。 ·
值得指出的是，上施力件 2和下施力件 3作为止鼾器的最特殊的部件,其足够 的弹性和适当的强度是极其重要的，二者缺一不可。 此外，适当尺寸的宽厚度或 直径也很重要，可直接影响弹力的大小。设计上,施力件 2,3可以与连接杆 6连为 一体，也可以灵活分开,如附图 12所示;可以用同一种材料及截面尺寸，也可以用 不同的材料及截面尺寸。 施力件的施力端可以直接指向最终作用处 (如附图 1 1 和附图 4所示),也可以间接指向最终作用处 (如附图 5和附图 8所示);中间还可以 至少带一个调节曲 13以便于调整长度和位置,如附图 12所示。
上述舒适型可摘舌位矫正止鼾器,经临床试验证明，能达到良好的预计效果。
