Airborne infectious disease isolation units and method of making using prefabricated containers

In one embodiment, a prefabricated container is modified as a medical isolation room by replacing an original door with a clear front door. An intake louver and an adjustable damper are disposed at a lower part of the front end. An exhaust vent is disposed at an upper part of the back wall. An exhaust fan and a HEPA filter are coupled to the exhaust vent. Washable coverings cover interior sides of the container to provide washable, nonslip interior surfaces. The exhaust fan and the adjustable damper at the intake louver are controlled to produce in the medical isolation room a negative air pressure of at least about minus 0.01 inch of water gage (approximately 2.5 pascals) and a displacement ventilation exhaust flow rate through the exhaust vent of at least about 100 cubic feet per minute (cfm) greater than an intake flow rate through the intake louver.

Method and apparatus for automatically maintaining a desired level of oxygen in a refuge

An apparatus for controlling a level of oxygen in a closed environment from an oxygen supply having an oxygen sensor for detecting the level of oxygen in the closed environment. The apparatus has a plurality of relays in communication with the sensor. The apparatus has a valve in communication with the relays and the oxygen supply which is automatically opened with the relays without human interaction, monitoring and adjustment to release oxygen from the oxygen supply into the environment when the level of oxygen in the environment goes below a first predetermined level and which is automatically closed with the relays without human interaction, monitoring and adjustment to stop oxygen from being released from the oxygen supply into the environment when the level of oxygen in the environment goes above a second predetermined level. A method for controlling a level of oxygen in a closed environment from an oxygen supply. A refuge chamber.

The present invention relates to a fire evacuation room that provides a space installed indoors in a high-rise building such as an apartment block so as to provide a person who is unable to escape outside with a space in which to safely take refuge. The present invention can be installed indoors in an apartment or in a basement of a building as desired so as to enable a person unable to evacuate outside the building to safely evacuate, wherein a predetermined pressure differential can be constantly produced by suitably controlling the amount of air entering the evacuation space and the amount of air leaving the evacuation space, thereby compensating for the occurrence of leaks inside the evacuation space by damage due to falling objects and the like, and thus a fire evacuation room can be provided that completely mitigates a shortage of air for breathing. Furthermore, the present invention can provide a fire evacuation room that can improve the overall efficiency of the system for air provision by unified operation of the air supply for each fire evacuation room installed on each story of a building by connecting the various air intake pipes to pipes of the ventilation system of the building or to separate pipes of the blower equipment inside the building. In addition, an air forced discharge fan which is installed in the interior wall surface inside the evacuation space is linked in operation to opening and closing of a door so as to actuate the air forced discharge fan, so as to be able to forcibly discharge air inside the evacuation space when the door is open and consequently, the evacuation space is able to block the entry of smoke or heat to the inside from the outside. In addition, the present invention provides a fire evacuation room wherein a branch pipe is formed on one side of an air intake pipe through which air flows into the inside of the evacuation room main body, and a filter device capable of purifying toxic gas such as smoke, in addition to oxygen generator that generates oxygen, is installed on the branch pipe so as to block the entry of external toxic gas while simultaneously supplying air to the inside of the evacuation room main body for evacuees to breathe, or by operating an air storage tank by utilizing the frame space of the evacuation room main body, so as to implement a new system that supplies air into the inside of the evacuation room main body for evacuees to breathe, thereby completely eliminating such problems as toxic gas flowing inside the fire evacuation room and protecting the safety of evacuees to the maximum.
