Examples

With reference to fig. 1-3, an end-adjustable snore stopper and an adjusting method thereof include a lower jaw 1 and an upper jaw 2 fixed to teeth, wherein the lower jaw 1 is provided with an extending portion 101, the upper jaw 2 is provided with a protrusion 201, the protrusion 201 is provided with an adjusting module 3, the adjusting module 3 includes an adjusting block 301 and a fixed block 302 slidably connected through a guide rail 303, the adjusting block 301 is matched with the extending portion 101, the fixed block 302 is fixedly connected to the upper jaw 2, the adjusting block 301 and the fixed block 302 are connected through a screw 304, an end adjusting groove 30401 is provided at an end of the screw 304, and the screw 304 is provided with a first thread section 30402 and a second thread section 30404 in opposite thread directions.

The interior of the lower jaw part 1 and the upper jaw part 2 of the end adjusting type snore stopper is matched with the shape of the teeth of a patient, and the snore stopper can be perfectly installed and cannot shake. The principle of the snore stopper is that the connection of the lower jaw part 1 and the upper jaw part 2 is utilized to jack up the lower jaw part 1, so that the tongue root is prevented from falling and the lower jaw is prevented from retracting, a smooth respiratory tract is formed, and snoring and breath holding are reduced and even eliminated fundamentally. The lower jaw part 1 is connected with the upper jaw part 2 through the adjusting module 3, the adjusting module 3 can adjust the distance between the lower jaw part 1 and the upper jaw part 2, so that the jacking distance of the lower jaw is adjusted, a patient can adjust and find the current suitable distance, the distance is lengthened little by little along with time, and the problem of the retraction of the lower jaw is finally and completely corrected. The reason why the large distance is not adopted at first is that the adjustment of the lower jaw needs an adaptation period, the lower jaw is easy to be injured by one step, and the adjustment slowly does not influence the sleep, so that the sleep quality can be considered. The guide rail 303 is used for positioning the adjusting block 301 and the fixing block 302 and enabling the adjusting block 301 and the fixing block 302 to slide relatively, the adjusting block 301 and the fixing block 302 are always parallel, and the through holes and the threaded holes on the adjusting block 301 and the fixing block 302 are aligned. The adjusting block 301 is matched with the extending part 101 in an abutting mode, namely the extending part 101 and the whole lower jaw part 1 are ejected out when the adjusting block 301 is far away from the fixing block 302. In the production of the prior snore stopper, the fixed block 302 is generally embedded in the upper jaw part 2 and fixed. The distance between the adjusting block 301 and the fixed block 302 is adjusted by the screw 304, the screw 304 can be adjusted to any distance desired within a certain range, and the precision depends on the thread pitch of the screw 304, and the precision can be set to be very high. The patient's need for precision is very important because the human nerve perception is very sharp, the comfortable position of the mandible may be very accurate, and improving the adjustment precision is beneficial to improving comfort. The end adjustment groove 30401 is used to screw the screw 304 for adjustment, which can be conveniently adjusted to fit some instrument like the shape of a screwdriver bit in dentistry. The end part of the screw 304 is not positioned at the mouth of the parotid gland any more, dental calculus is not easy to accumulate, the adjusting hole is not easy to block or bury, the influence of dental calculus is eliminated, and the adjustment is more convenient and efficient. Because the screw 304 can only rotate in one direction at the same time, and the adjusting block 301 and the fixed block 302 need to move away from or close to each other in the adjusting process, if the screw threads of the screw 304 are only one section in the same direction, the distance between the adjusting block 301 and the fixed block 302 will not change, and the adjusting block 301 and the fixed block 302 will move synchronously. Therefore, the first thread section 30402 and the second thread section 30404 with opposite thread directions are provided, and when the screw 304 rotates, the adjusting block 301 and the fixing block 302 move away from or close to each other, thereby achieving the functional effect of the adjusting module 3.

More specifically, the extension 101 is inclined toward the adjustment module 3, and the extension 101 is engaged with the adjustment block 301. When a patient sleeps, the face of the patient is generally upward, the lower jaw is retracted generally to form a certain angle towards the neck, and if the extension part 101 and the adjusting block 301 only have a limit parallel to the moving direction of the adjusting block 301, the lower jaw is likely to be retracted too much, so that the effect of the snore stopper is damaged. The extension part 101 is buckled with the adjusting block 301, and the lower jaw part 1 is hung on the upper jaw part 2, so that the lower jaw is effectively prevented from retracting backwards.

More specifically, a first protruding block 30101 is disposed on the adjusting block 301, and a first through hole 30102 and a first threaded hole 30103 engaged with the first threaded section 30402 are disposed on the first protruding block 30101. In this embodiment, the first protrusion 30101 is in a long shape and is used to provide a space for the screw 304 and the guide rail 303, so that the screw 304 and the guide rail 303 do not spatially interfere with the adjusting block 301 and the fixing block 302. The first through hole 30102 is used to form a slider-screw 304 structure by matching the guide rail 303, the first thread section 30402 of the screw 304 and the first threaded hole 30103, and the screw 304 can rotate to convert the circumferential rotation into the axial movement.

More specifically, the fixed block 302 is provided with a second protrusion 30201, and the second protrusion 30201 is provided with a second through hole 30202 and a second threaded hole 30203 which is matched with the second threaded section 30404. In this embodiment, the second protrusion 30201 is elongated to provide space for the screw 304 and the guide rail 303, so that the screw 304 and the guide rail 303 do not spatially interfere with the adjusting block 301 and the fixing block 302. The second through hole 30202 is used for forming a slider screw 304 structure by matching the second thread section 30404 of the screw 304 with the second threaded hole 30203 through the guide rail 303, and the rotation of the screw 304 can convert the circumferential rotation into the axial movement.

More specifically, the guide rail 303 is "U" shaped. The U shape is that one end of guide rail 303 is the closed arc, is used for spacing guide rail 303 and regulating block 301, prevents that guide rail 303 from deviating from.

More specifically, the first through hole 30102 and the second through hole 30202 are both fitted to the guide rail 303.

More specifically, a ring projection 30403 for limiting is connected to the screw 304. The annular projection 30403 is located between the first protrusion 30101 and the second protrusion 30201, and the diameter of the annular projection 30403 is greater than that of the first threaded hole 30103. The ring projection 30403 is internally provided with a thread and fastened to the screw 304, when the screw 304 rotates, the ring projection 30403 rotates together with the screw 304, and when the screw 304 moves excessively in the axial direction, the ring projection 30403 interferes with the first projection 30101 or the second projection 30201 to limit the position of the screw 304.

More specifically, the first through hole 30102 and the second through hole 30202 are aligned, and the first screw hole 30103 and the second screw hole 30203 are aligned. The guide rail 303 passes through the first through hole 30102 and the second through hole 30202, the screw 304 passes through the first threaded hole 30103 and the second threaded hole 30203, and the guide rail 303 and the screw 304 can conveniently pass through the aligned position relationship

More specifically, the edges of the extension 101 and the adjusting block 301 are provided with a rounded structure. The fillet structure is favorable for protecting the inside of the oral cavity of a patient, avoids scratching and improves the safety of the snore stopper.

step one, the end adjusting snore stopper is disassembled, a screwdriver tool matched with an end adjusting groove 30401 is adopted to extend into the end adjusting groove 30401, the screwdriver tool is screwed after the screwdriver tool is inserted into the end adjusting groove 30401, the screw 304 rotates, the adjusting block 301 axially displaces along the screw 304, and the displacement direction depends on the thread directions of the screw 304, the fixed block 302 and the adjusting block 301;
