Anti-snore device

1. A device for prevention of snoring in the form of a neck collar having a middle section for placement under the chin of a user, side sections connecting to said middle section; and end parts optionally connectable to each other, said neck collar comprising a core of foam plastic contained in a covering, said foam plastic being a soft foam plastic, wherein said middle section comprises an opening in an area to be placed under the chin of a user with resilient height adjustment spring means arranged to be manually rotatably adjustable in order to adjust the height of said middle section to accommodate anatomic differences between users of the device,

wherein the height adjustment spring means further comprises screw cups intended to be arranged in the bushings for taking up of one end of the helical spring, whereby the screw cups on their outside exhibit screw threads while at the same time that each bushing on their inside exhibits a tap or a thread follower, intended to interact with the threads of screw on the outside of the screw cups so that when screw cups are rotated with the driver means arranged on their underside, these can be moved upwards or downwards in relation to the bushing, whereby also the height of the opening in the device is adjusted.

2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said height adjustment spring means comprises at least one helical spring, at least one bushing arranged in a part of the device which delimits the opening downwardly and fastened thereto, as well as one support sleeve arranged in another part of the device delimiting said opening upwardly and fastened thereto for the taking up of the upper end of the spring.

3. The device according to claim 2 , wherein said height adjustment spring means comprises two helical springs with adherent bushings or support sleeves for taking up of the springs.

4. The device according to claim 3 , wherein the bushings are connected to each other with rods, whereby the internal position of the bushings are fixed.

5. The device according to claim 3 , wherein the support sleeves are connected to each other with rods, whereby the internal positions of the support sleeves are fixed.

6. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the bushing(s) and the support sleeve(s) are fastened in the foam plastic through gluing/pasting, embedment or the correspondent, whereby on each outside of the elements is arranged protruding elements of soft plastic material for further fixation in the foam.

7. The device according to claim 2 , wherein the bushings exhibit an internal thread for screwing in or out of said spring, whereby the thread in the spring bushing is adapted to the pitch of the spring, whereby through manual rotation of the free spring in said opening, the height of the middle section or the opening can be adjusted.

8. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said spring means are arranged in said opening in the foam plastic, and said height adjustment spring means is arranged to be manually adjustable through exposed portions of said spring means.

9. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said height adjustment spring means is arranged to be adjustable through driver means accessible from underneath the device.
