Definitions
- the device consists of a container capable of holding water and a detachable cap for refilling.
- the device is designed with an attachment so that it may be fastened to either the cart carrying the compressed air/ oxygen cylinder or to the compressed air/ oxygen cylinder itself.
- the air or oxygen source is fed in through an inlet in the reservoir and the cap has an outlet for the moisturized air to enter the patient's breathing tube.
- the compressed air/ oxygen comes into the device and is forced, by its own pressure, to the bottom of the container where it is released in tiny bubbles that naturally float upward through the water in the container, absorbing some of the water and creating humidified air/ oxygen.
- the device has a "male" attachment built in that connects to the "female” correspondent that is fixed to the air cylinder or to the cart that transports the air cylinder.
- the contained air is forced into the bottom of the reservoir and produces tiny, discreet bubbles from the deepest part of the reservoir.
- the size of the bubbles provides optimal humidification and quiet operation.
- the device itself is very simple and easy to use.
- the cap is removable for refilling and the attachments from the air source and to the patient are simple.
- the device is designed to be economical and efficient.
- the device will be easily molded in plastic and assembled. Assembly may include a pressure release valve made of brass or other suitable material. A disk of porous material will be fitted in the bottom of the reservoir to separate the incoming air from the water.
- the two piece reservoir will have a removable cap that snaps on and the fittings for the incoming air supply and outgoing line to the patient will be molded into the device.
