The invention relates to an appliance for simulating the chewing action of a mammal, said appliance comprising two elements (21, 22) simulating a mobile lower maxilla and a fixed upper maxilla. The two elements are formed by two parallel disks (21, 22) aligned on a common axis (A-A′), a face of each disk, facing the other disk (21, 22), being provided with at least one raised part (31, 33) projecting from said face. The appliance comprises means (16, 17,18,19) for driving at least one (21) of said disks in relation to the other disk (22), rotationally about the common axis (A-A′) and in translation (12,13,14) parallel to said axis.
Appliance for simulating the chewing action of a mammal, comprising two members simulating a movable lower jaw and a fixed upper jaw, characterised in that the two members are formed by two parallel discs aligned on a common axis, a face of each disc, facing the other disc, being provided with at least one raised portion projecting from said face, and in that the appliance comprises means for driving at least one of said discs in rotation about the common axis and in translation parallel to said axis with respect to the other disc.
