Title:
NOSTRIL PLUG FOR IMPROVING ARTICULATOTY DISORDER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/023607
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A nostril plug (A1) which can reduce functional articulatory disorder by closing
a nostril thereby preventing leakage of exhalation from a nostril and can be used
with no displeasure. The nostril plug (A1) for suppressing leakage of exhalation
from a nose by inserting it into a nostril comprises a valve unit (14) for suppressing
only passage of exhalation in breathing, and supports (11, 12) of the valve unit
(14) arranged in the nostril while fitted with the valve unit (14). The support
(11, 12) is a tubular body inscribed in the nostril and the valve unit (14) is fitted
removably in the supports (11, 12). When the pressure in the nostril reaches a
predetermined level through exhaling, the valve unit (14) can be separated from
the supports (11, 12) by that pressure.
