Compact portable oxygen concentrator
A compressor assembly for a portable oxygen concentrator includes a first compressor chamber having a first connector, a second compressor chamber having a second connector, and a tube having a first end having a first connection interface configured to connect to the first connector and a second end having a second connection interface configured to connect to the second connector. The first connection interface is shaped to maintain the connection between the first connector and the first connection interface in a fixed orientation and the second connection interface is shaped to maintain the connection between the second connector and the second connection interface in a fixed orientation. One or more of the first connector, the second connector, and the tube are compliant.
ULTRA RAPID CYCLE PORTABLE OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR
Lightweight, portable oxygen concentrators that operate rising an ultra rapid, sub one second, adsorption cycle based on advanced molecular sieve materials are disclosed. The amount of sieve material utilized is a fraction of that used in conventional portable devices. This dramatically reduces the volume, weight, and cost of the device. Innovations in valve configuration, moisture control, case and battery design, and replaceable sieve module are described. Patients with breathing disorders and others requiring medical oxygen are provided with a long lasting, low cost alternative to existing portable oxygen supply devices.
Portable air cleaner for kitchen
An air cleaner includes a case, an air inlet, an air outlet, a grill covering the air inlet to filter airborne oil droplets, a fan to suction air through the air inlet and discharge air out of the air outlet, a roll filter provided between the grill and the fan to filter oil mist, and a filter roller to cut the roll filter. The roll filter includes a roller and a filter sheet wound around the roller, and the filter sheet may be unwound to extend behind the grill. When the filter sheet becomes dirty, the roll filter is further unwound so that a clean section is provided behind the grill, and the filter cutter may cut off the dirty section. During cutting, a clamp holds down the filter sheet. The case includes a slit through which the dirty section of the filter sheet passes for discarding.
Oxygen enhancement of a room and HVAC system for same
An HVAC system having a fan coil and an oxygen concentrator.
Method and systems for the delivery of oxygen enriched gas
Described herein are various embodiments of an oxygen concentrator system and method of delivering oxygen enriched gas to a user. In some embodiments, oxygen concentrator system includes one or more components that improve the efficiency of oxygen enriched gas delivery during operation of the oxygen concentrator system. In some embodiments, time measurements based on the penultimate breath taken by the user are used to alter the oxygen delivery parameters.
Methods and apparatus for treating a respiratory disorder
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.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MITIGATING NOISE AND VIBRATION IN A PORTABLE OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR
A portable oxygen concentrator includes a compressor and a controller. The compressor includes a motor, at least one chamber, and at least one piston operably coupled to the motor and movable within the at least one chamber. In some embodiments, the controller is configured to: determine actual motor speeds for commutations steps of the motor during a first rotational cycle; determine an average motor speed during the first rotational cycle; determine a voltage pattern based at least on a comparison of the average motor speed during the first rotational cycle and the actual motor speeds for the commutation steps of the motor during the first rotational cycle; and cause the voltage pattern to be applied to the motor during a second rotational cycle to reduce differences between applied motor torque and variable torque load imparted by the at least one piston.
Air purifier apparatus with flexible filter modules
The invention relates to a modular, portable, air purifier device capable of supplying filtered or otherwise conditioned airflow to an individual. More specifically, the present invention provides an air purification system that allows for the remote detection and analysis of local ambient air quality and transmit that information to wirelessly connected devices.
Multilayer film for air purification and method for manufacturing same
The present invention relates to a multilayer film for air purification and a method for manufacturing the same and, more particularly, to a multilayer film for air purification having a thin and uniform shape, thereby exhibiting a high degree of utility as a mask and an air purification filter, as well as having an excellent air purification function, and a method for manufacturing the same. The objective of the present invention is to provide a multilayer film for air purification and a method for manufacturing the multilayer film for air purification, which comprises yellow ocher-activated carbon composite particles capable of removing fine dust, bacteria, odor, VOC, etc. present in the air.
Hybrid oxygen concentrator with oxygen side balancing
The present disclosure pertains to a system configured to generate oxygen including a compressor configured to intake and pressurize gas, an oxygen separation unit comprising a first sieve bed, a second sieve bed, and an input receiving the stream of gas from an output of the compressor. The oxygen separation unit generates an oxygen flow by separating oxygen from the stream of gas. A membrane module in fluid connection with an output of the oxygen separation unit is configured to purify the oxygen flow generated by the oxygen separation unit. A valve arrangement is configured to direct, periodically, at least some of the oxygen flow from the membrane module through the sieve beds to purge the sieve beds with retentate gas and exhaust such retentate gas. One or more processors control the valve arrangement, so as to control the oxygen flow and purging of the sieve beds.
