The disclosure and prior art relates to health tools and more particularly pertains to a new health tool for removing mucus and cerumen.
An embodiment of the disclosure meets the needs presented above by generally comprising a headband comprising a front portion, a back portion, a left portion, and a right portion. The headband is configured to be worn on a crown of a user's head. A housing is coupled to the front portion of the headband and defines a housing cavity. A pump and a battery are coupled to the housing within the housing cavity. The battery is in operational communication with the pump. A charge port is coupled to the housing and is in operational communication with the battery. A power button is coupled to the housing and is in operational communication with the pump and the battery. A nasal arm is coupled to the housing. A nasal base is coupled to the nasal arm. A pair of nasal collection chambers is coupled to the nasal base and is in fluid communication with the pump. A pair of nasal nozzles is coupled to the pair of nasal collection chambers. The pair of nasal nozzles is configured to be inserted into a user's nostrils. A pair of aural arms is coupled to the headband. The pair of aural arms comprises a left aural arm and a right aural arm coupled to the left portion and the right portion of the headband. A pair of aural bases is coupled to the pair of aural arms. A pair of aural collection chambers is coupled to the pair of aural bases. The pair of aural collection chambers is in fluid communication with the pump. A pair of aural nozzles is coupled to the pair of aural collection chambers. The pair of aural nozzles is configured to be inserted into a user's ears.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the disclosure in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the disclosure that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
The objects of the disclosure, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the disclosure, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure.
The disclosure will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings wherein:
With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to
As best illustrated in
A pair of aural arms 60 is coupled to the headband. The pair of aural arms 60 comprises a left aural arm 62 and a right aural arm 64 coupled to the left portion 18 and the right portion 20 of the headband 12, respectively. Each aural arm 60 comprises an L-shaped aural proximal portion 66 coupled to the headband 12, a straight aural medial portion 68 coupled to the aural proximal portion 66, and an L-shaped aural distal portion 70 slidably coupled to the aural medial portion 68. A width of the aural distal portion 70 is less than a width of the aural proximal portion 66. A pair of aural bases 72 is coupled to the pair of aural arms 60. The pair of aural bases 72 is coupled to the aural distal portion 70 of the pair of aural arms 60. Each of the aural bases 72 is cylindrical. A pair of aural collection chambers 74 is coupled to the pair of aural bases 72. Each of the aural collection chambers 74 is cylindrical and threadably engageable with an aural inner face 75 of each of the aural bases 72. Each aural collection chamber 74 has a diameter less than a diameter of each of the aural bases 72. The pair of aural collection chambers 74 is in fluid communication with the pump 30. A pair of aural nozzles 76 is coupled to the pair of aural collection chambers 74. The pair of aural nozzles 76 is configured to be inserted into a user's ears 78.
In use, the headband 12 is placed on the crown 22 of the user's head 25. The aural nozzles 76 are inserted into the user's ears 78 and the nasal nozzles 54 are inserted into a user's nostrils 58. The power button 34 is depressed and the pump 30 sucks nasal and aural residue into the pair of nasal collection chambers 50 and the pair of aural collection chambers 74, respectively. The aural nozzles 76 and the nasal nozzles 54 may be removed to clean out the pair of nasal collection chambers 50 and the pair of aural collection chambers 74.
With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.
Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
