FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: automatic control method of chewing food consists in installation of linear momentum transducer on inferior or superior mastication muscle, or temporal muscle. Signal thereof is transmitted to conversion unit and thereafter to control unit whereat current quantity of chewing movements is filtered, counted and compared to reference value derived earlier. Then signal is transmitted to mechanical or electromagnetic action unit fixed within ear region, and further to audiophone and mastication muscle assembly, feedback coupled to conversion unit through linear momentum transducer.
EFFECT: possibility to optimise chewing food due to automatic control of chewing food.
