Description

A mask for nose with nasal dilators}

The present invention relates to a dust-proof mask, and more particularly, to a dust-proof nose mask which includes a nasal dilator and is installed adjacent to a nostril.

Interest in air pollutants such as pollen and fine dust is increasing. Accordingly, the demand for dustproof masks is also increasing.

As such a dust-proof mask, the present inventor has proposed a dust mask having a grip portion for wrapping a cochlea (a partition wall in the middle of the nose); A filter provided on a filter support portion and a filter support portion which are installed in succession to a clamping portion, a filter supporting portion is formed to be in close contact with an inner wall of the nasal cavity, and a filter is installed in a maximum diameter portion of the filter support portion (Patent Application No. 2005-73967) . When the nippers are inserted into the nasal cavity, the filter support formed on both sides of the nippers is inserted into the interior of the nasal cavity so that dust in the air flowing into the nasal cavity is filtered by the filter installed in the filter support.

In addition, snoring has been shown to be associated with relaxed studies (relatively soft backward part of the mouth) and number of hairs (also called " And the like. Furthermore, sleep apnea is a frequent occurrence of respiratory arrest during sleep, which causes sleep disorders such as severe snoring and daytime sleepiness. Hypoxia induced during sleep due to sleep apnea can cause various cardiovascular complications. There have been many studies on the development of snoring and sleep apnea, and several studies have been reported. Most of the patients with snoring and sleep apnea have anatomical abnormalities that narrow the space of the upper airway, which starts from the nasal cavity and extends to the throat. Obesity can result in fat accumulation in the neck area or enlargement of tissues such as the tongue and tonsil, which can reduce the space inside the neck and cause narrowing of the upper extremity, resulting in snoring and sleep apnea.

General treatment methods can be divided into non - surgical methods and surgical methods. Non-surgical treatment methods include sleeping side-by-side, reducing risk factors by weight loss, smoking cessation, smoking cessation, drug therapy, preventing tongue sagging through the oral cavity, There is a way to prevent the collapse of the soft tissue of the pharynx by supplying with airway, but the symptom can be alleviated through the cylindrical insertion nasal dilator.

Accordingly, the 'snoring zone' of the registered patent No. 10-1112605 is firmly attached to the corrugated nasal cavity and can be stably maintained, and in particular, the nasal cavity is excessively inserted into the nasal cavity The nasal cavity is prevented from snoring by maximizing an inflow amount of air sucked into the nasal cavity to facilitate detachment of the snare, And a tubular body having a through hole penetrating through the center thereof, a snare piece extending outward from the tip of the body, and a ring-shaped contact ring formed on an outer circumferential surface of the body. However, the above-mentioned Patent No. 10-1112605 'Snoring Zone' is not comfortable to wear and is easily inconvenient from the nose, and the protruding piece is exposed to the outside, and the connecting piece is stretched under the nose.

Patent Document 10-2010-0104766 'Snoring Zone' includes a nip member in the form of a nipple which is fixedly mounted by holding a nasal septum between the nasal nasal passages of the nose, and a nipple member formed integrally with both ends of the nip member, Shaped insert inserted into the nasal cavity of the human body, the crotch member being provided in a form of a " H " It provides excellent effect to prevent snoring by increasing oxygen supply and eliminating nasal obstruction, as well as a nipple between nasal and nasal cavities in the form of a nipple. It is mounted in a fixed form so there is no fear of moving or falling out during use, To improve reliability of use. However, in the patent application 10-2010-0104766, there is no hole in the circular tube to be inserted, which causes the user to feel uncomfortable, and the shape of the cylindrical body does not take into consideration the shape of the nasal cavity, there was. In addition, there is a problem that the supporting portion, the pressing portion, the clamping member, and the like are remarkably protruded, and the appearance is not good.

On the other hand, as a dust-proof mask to which a filter is applied, Japanese Patent No. 10-1273735 of the present inventor discloses a dust-proof mask having a pair of vanes, a claw portion (a partition wall in the middle of the nose), a coupling portion provided at the tip of the two vanes, And the outer end of the filter is formed in an approximately semispherical shape such as an umbrella so that the outer end opening portion of the filter is in contact with the inner wall of the nasal cavity so that the outer diameter of the filter is narrowed to allow the filter to accommodate the difference in diameter of the nasal cavity, A nasal bridge is formed in the connecting portion so that the center concave portion of the filter is located at the center of the crotch and the nail connecting hole is inserted into the fitting hole provided at the center of the filter.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a nasal mask having a nasal dilator.

It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory and are not intended to limit the invention to the precise form disclosed. There will be.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a nasal mask provided adjacent to a nasal cavity, comprising: two cylinders inserted into a nasal cavity; And a filter support part (2) installed at a lower part of the connection member (200), wherein the filter support part (2) comprises a filter support part A coupling part 310 installed at the center of the filter support 300 and fastened to the lower part of the coupling member 200 and a fastening part 310 fastened to the filter support 300, And a corresponding filter (320). ≪ / RTI >

According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent snoring by securing a space extending from the nasal cavity to the posterior of the throat, and to provide a good snoring zone with a good fit and aesthetic appearance, as well as a function of a dustproof nose mask including a filter. In addition, it is possible to increase the efficiency of the exercise during exercising by ensuring a sufficient diameter of nasal cavity even in the exercise requiring a large amount of breathing, and it is possible to expand the nasal cavity by expanding the nasal cavity even when the nose is blocked.

According to the embodiment of the present invention, since the nasal mask for dustproofing is detachably installed in the lower portion of the nasal dilator connection portion, it is possible to easily release the wearing state, and by using the nasal dilator, Thereby ensuring smooth communication between the two.

That is, according to the present invention, the snoring is provided with the opening 120 on the side of the cylinder 100, thereby minimizing the obstruction of the nasal cavity and providing the effect of maximizing the wearing comfort. That is, by opening the side surface of the cylinder, the portion contacting the inner wall of the nose is minimized, thereby reducing the foreign object sensation and minimizing the flow resistance of the air. As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide an effect of facilitating respiration through not only the prevention of snoring but also the securing of the air passage of the nasal cavity during exercise. In other words, it is expected that the effect of facilitating breathing can be expected in a movement requiring a large amount of breath, such as long distance running.

In addition, as the anti-vibration nose mask, not only the filter can be easily attached and detached, but also the frictional resistance by the filter can be eliminated through the nasal dilator. This is because when the air is sucked in, the nostril is contracted due to the resistance of the filter, which narrows the nasal cavity and makes breathing difficult, thereby ensuring air communication through the nasal dilator.

That is, the present invention provides a comfortable snug and comfortable snoring zone, as well as a technique for expecting the function of a dust-proof nose mask including a replaceable filter.

It should be understood that the effects of the present invention are not limited to the above effects and include all effects that can be deduced from the detailed description of the present invention or the configuration of the invention described in the claims.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a nasal mask with nasal dilator of the present invention, and Fig. 2 is a front view of a nasal mask with nasal dilator of the present invention. A nasal dilator (1) comprising two cylinders (100) inserted into a nasal cavity and a connecting member (200) connecting the two cylinders (100) And a filter supporting part 2 installed at a lower part of the connecting member 200. The filter supporting part 2 includes a filter supporting part 300 which is a structure supporting the filter, And a filter 320 installed in the filter support 300 and corresponding to a nostril of a user. The filter 310 may include a filter 310, Gt; nasal dilator < / RTI >

Preferably, the nasal dilator 1 is manufactured by molding two cylinders 100 and a connecting member 200 at one time with silicone or soft synthetic resin. In order to minimize a foreign object, it is preferable to form through holes 110 through which air can communicate with the periphery of the cylinder, and to form an opening 120 on the side of the cylinder 100. The opening 120 may provide elasticity to the cylinder 100 to provide optimal fit to users of various nasal cavities. Also, if necessary, an 'X' shaped support 101 may be installed on the upper part of the cylinder 100.

As described above, the filter support part 2 is installed at the lower part of the connection part 200. The filter support 300 of the filter support 2 preferably has a curved surface with elasticity as shown in Figs. Since the shape of the nose of the user is various, the filter support 300 has a curved shape and a shape that wraps around the nostril portion. 3 (a), the filter support 300 may have a wing portion 301 for collecting both sides of nostrils at both ends. As shown in FIG. 3 (b) 320 to the nostrils of the user.

The wing portion 301 may secure the fastening state of the filter supporting portion 2 and may have a function of guiding the filter supporting portion 2 to be positioned in an optimum state to the user's nose . In addition, the spacing member 302 allows the filter 320 to be in close contact with the nostrils of various shapes. In the case where the spacer member 302 is not used, the filter 320 is provided in the filter receiving hole 303 as shown in FIG. 2. However, when the spacer member 302 is used, The filter 320 is separated from the filter support 300, so that the formation of the filter receiving hole 303 is not forced.

Also, it is preferable that the fastening part 310 is composed of a groove holding the lower end of the connection part 200 as shown in FIGS. This is to prevent unnecessary components from being present at the lower end of the connection part 200 in a state where the filter support part 2 is not fastened. Since the nasal dilator 1 is inserted into the nose and the connection part 200 is exposed outside the nostril, users are inevitably interested in the beauty of the connection part 200. Accordingly, it is desirable that the size, thickness, and number of components of the connection unit 200 are minimized.

If necessary, the fastening part 310 can be fitted with a concave / convex method, a bolt fastening method, or the like.

The embodiments of FIG. 4 illustrate embodiments in which a filter 320 applied to both nostrils is formed as one. The filter support 300 shown in FIG. 4 (a) has a frame shape in which a coupling part 310 is installed at the center. A filter 320 is installed on the frame-shaped filter support 300 and the center groove 321 of the filter 320 is engaged with the coupling part 310. Fig. 4 (b) shows an embodiment in which the frame has a plurality of branch-like shapes extending to both sides.
4 (b), the filter support 300 includes a frame having a plurality of branches 301 extending from the center of the filter support 300, and the filter 320 has two nostrils The filter has a central groove 321 into which the coupling part 310 is inserted.

Fig. 5 is an explanatory diagram for explaining wear of a nasal mask having the nasal dilator of the present invention. Fig. The user wears both cylinders 100 of the nasal dilator 1 by inserting them into the respective nostrils. Then, in order to wear the nasal mask due to dust or the like, the nasal dilator 1 can be worn only by fastening the fastening part 310 of the filter supporting part 2 to the connecting part 200 of the nasal dilator 1.
