- a mouthpiece 1 12 is placed between the ⁇ 1 2 2 and the side teeth group in the oral cavity. Also, lightly press the inner mouthpiece 1 16 against the set of measuring teeth so that the inner mouthpiece 1 16 does not move.
- the force acting on the shaft 26 is ⁇ muscle pressure
- the magnitude of the pressure acting on the shaft 26, that is, ⁇ muscle pressure is digitally displayed on the display unit 36. It is preferable that a plurality of types of mouthpieces 1 and 2 having different sizes and lengths such as a large adult and a small child are prepared.
- An oral muscle pressure measuring device 130 according to a seventh embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
- the same components as those in the above-described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted.
- FIG. 16 (A) is a side view showing a state in which the closing force (pressure) of the upper and lower lips is measured using the oral muscle pressure measuring device 130.
- the oral muscle pressure measuring device 130 of the present embodiment is equipped with a mouthpiece 132 for measuring the closing force and pressure of the upper and lower lips.
- This mouthpiece 1332 comprises an upper mouthpiece 134 and a lower mouthpiece 1336.
- the upper mouthpiece 13 4 is connected to the shaft 26 of the force measuring device 11, and the lower mouthpiece 13 6 is connected to the mouse piece mounting bracket 38.
- the connecting shaft 1 3 8 of the upper mouthpiece 1 3 4 is connected with the shaft 26 of the force measuring device 1 1, and the connecting shaft 1 40 of the lower mouthpiece 1 3 6 is the mouthpiece of the force measuring device 1 1 Connected to mounting bracket 38.
- the connecting shafts 138 and 140 are bent in a substantially L-shape.
- the upper mouthpiece 134 and the lower mouthpiece 1336 are curved in accordance with the shape of the lips.
- the mouthpiece 1 3 2 When the mouthpiece 1 3 2 is placed between the upper lip and the lower lip and the upper lip 49 and the lower lip 50 are closed, the upper mouthpiece 1 3 4 and the lower mouthpiece 1 3 6 become the upper lip 4 9 and the lower lip. It is sandwiched between the lips 50 and the magnitude of the force acting on the shaft 26, that is, the closing force of the upper and lower lips, and the magnitude of (pressure) are digitally displayed on the display 36.
- a force obtained by measuring the magnitude of the closing force, (pressure) of the upper and lower lips using the muscle pressure measuring device for oral cavity 130 is set to the upper mouthpiece 134 and the lower mouthpiece 1336. If it is placed between the upper and lower dentition, it is possible to measure the masticatory power (power of the masticatory muscles).
- the shape of the upper mouthpiece 13 4 and the lower mouthpiece 13 6 be a flat plate without being curved, and a sheet having elasticity such as rubber is attached to a portion where the tip of the tooth contacts. Is preferred.
- the connecting shafts 1 38 and 140 need to be thick so as not to bend.
