A portable oxygen concentrator includes at least one separation mechanism and an oxygen storage tank, where the separation mechanism is connected to the oxygen storage tank and includes an air bag and a molecular sieve tank that is filled with a molecular sieve for adsorption. The air bag has an air inlet and an air outlet. The air bag is connected to the molecular sieve tank through a valve group, which includes a first single valve and a second single valve. The air bag is connected to the molecular sieve tank through the first single valve. Each of the two ends of the molecular sieve tank has at least one gas outlet. When an inner space of the air bag is compressed and expanded once, the molecular sieve in the molecular sieve tank adsorbs and desorbs once.

Provided is an oxygen concentration device that can facilitate easy and secure replacement work, such as attaching and detaching the adsorption cylinder while reducing the force applied from the oxygen concentration device body to the adsorption cylinder cartridge in the direction of detaching and thus ensuring the connection with the oxygen concentration device, wherein the axis line of the gas flow direction of the adsorption cylinder intersects with either connection axis in the end part for supplying pressurized air to the adsorption cylinder or the end part for extracting oxygen from the adsorption cylinder.

An oxygen concentrator 100 apparatus and a method thereof implement operations control to efficiently release oxygen enriched gas to reduce potential waste. The control methodology may include generating a profile such as a minimum inhalation flow profile of the user. The profile may be based on a size parameter of the user. The method may determine one or more control parameters characterizing a bolus of oxygen enriched gas based on the generated flow profile. The control methodology may then generate a bolus release control signal, such as for a supply valve, according to the determined one or more control parameters. The oxygen concentrator may then, with the control signal, release and deliver a bolus of oxygen enriched gas for a user such as for reducing waste.
