Mechanical pharyngeal prosthesis for voice restoration, crafted using brass and leather
Problems this subject addresses:
1. Complete loss of voice due to larynx trauma
2. Limitations of 1920s technology (lack of plastic and electronics)
3. Restricted neck movements and discomfort when wearing heavy constructions
Problem Solving:
1. The device replaces damaged ligaments, generating sound through the vibration of mechanical membranes inside the casing.
2. Use of available materials from the era: brass plates, leather straps, and spring assemblies.
3. Side hinge mounts (holders) provide mobility, while the wide collar distributes weight, reducing neck strain.
