Definitions

  • the invention relates to breathing analysis, for example to determine breathing volume information such as an oxygen uptake value or maximum oxygen uptake value (VO2max).
  • breathing analysis for example to determine breathing volume information such as an oxygen uptake value or maximum oxygen uptake value (VO2max).
  • VO2max maximum oxygen uptake value
  • it relates to implementation of the breathing analysis using a mask, for providing filtered air to the wearer of the mask, with the flow assisted by a fan.
  • the World Health Organization estimates that 4 million people die from air pollution every year. Part of this problem is the outdoor air quality in cities. The worst in class are Indian cities like Delhi that have an annual pollution level more than 10 times the recommended level. Well known is Beijing with an annual average 8.5 times the recommended safe levels. However, even in European cities like London, Paris and Berlin, the levels are higher than recommended by the WHO.
  • the benefit to the wearer of using a powered mask is that the lungs are relieved of the slight strain caused by inhalation against the resistance of the filters in a conventional non-powered mask.
  • a powered mask delivers a steady stream of air to the face and may for example provide a slight positive pressure, which may be determined by the resistance of an exhale valve, to ensure that any leakage is outward rather than inward.
  • the pressure inside the mask can be measured and both pressure as well as pressure variation can be used to control the fan.
  • the pressure inside a mask can be measured by a pressure sensor and the fan speed can be varied in dependence on the sensor measurements.
  • a pressure sensor is costly so it would be desirable to provide an alternative method of monitoring pressure inside a mask.
  • WO 2018/215225 discloses a mask in which a rotation speed of the fan is used as a proxy for pressure measurement. A pressure or a pressure change is determined based on the rotation speed of the fan. Using this pressure information, the breathing pattern of the user can be tracked.
  • VO2max maximum oxygen uptake value
  • VO2 oxygen uptake
  • a basic VO2 measurement relates to the volume of oxygen consumption during exercise.
  • VO2max is the maximum oxygen consumption measured during incremental exercise. It is a special case of the VO2 measurement and is widely used as a health indicator.
  • a graded exercise test must be conducted on a treadmill or cycle ergometer. The user also needs to wear a mask with a long tube, with the tube connected to a remote analysis system for further breathing ventilation, and oxygen and carbon dioxide concentration analysis of the inhaled and exhaled air. This is an inconvenient and high cost test, and so it is typically used only for clinical and athletics testing.
  • breathing volume information such as a VO2max indication
  • a filtration mask as is increasingly commonly worn during exercise.
  • a pollution mask comprising:
  • the invention relates to a pollution mask.
  • a pollution mask By this is meant a device which has the primary purpose of filtering ambient air to be breathed by the user.
  • the mask does not perform any form of patient treatment.
  • the pressure levels and flows resulting from the fan operation are intended solely to assist in providing comfort (by influencing the temperature or relative humidity in the air chamber) and/or to assist in providing a flow across a filter without requiring significant additional breathing effort by the user.
  • the mask does not provide overall breathing assistance compared to a condition in which the user does not wear the mask.
  • This mask functions both as a pollution mask, as explained above, and also when worn during exercise, an analysis system from providing breathing flow information.
  • the rotation speed of the fan and/or the pressure measurement are to identify breathing cycles (i.e. inhalation and exhalation cycles) and flow rates.
  • the breathing flow information is derived without a direct flow measurement. It is instead derived from pressure values (and known characteristics of the structure of the mask), and these pressure values may themselves in turn be derived from fan rotation information as explained below.
  • the breathing flow information may be an instantaneous an oxygen uptake rate, or an average over a preceding period, or a maximum reached during a predetermined period, or a combination of these.
  • the controller for example also controls the fan speed. It may for example control the fan in synchronism with the breathing cycles of the user, in order to save power. It may for example turn off during inhalation.
  • the means for determining a pressure between the air chamber and the ambient surroundings may be implemented by the controller, which is adapted to derive a pressure between the air chamber and the ambient surroundings from the rotation speed of the fan, such that the fan speed is used as a proxy of pressure measurement.
  • the fan speed (for a fan which drives air into the chamber and/or expels it from the chamber) is used as a proxy of pressure measurement.
  • the fan itself may be used so that no additional sensors are required.
  • the chamber may be closed in normal use, so that pressure fluctuations in the chamber have an influence on the load conditions of the fan and hence alter the fan electrical characteristics. This avoids the need for a separate pressure sensor.
  • the means for determining a pressure between the air chamber and the ambient surroundings may however instead comprise a cavity pressure sensor or a differential pressure sensor.
  • the fan is driven by an electronically commutated brushless motor
  • the means for determining rotation speed comprises an internal sensor of the motor.
  • the internal sensor is already provided in such motors to enable rotation of the motor.
  • the motor may even have an output port on which the internal sensor output is provided. Thus, there is a port which carries a signal suitable for determining the rotation speed.
  • the means for determining the rotation speed may comprise a circuit for detecting a ripple on the electrical supply to a motor which drives the fan.
  • the ripple results from switching current through the motor coils, which cause induced changes in the supply voltage as a result of the finite impedance of the input voltage source.
  • the fan may be a two-wire fan and the circuit for detecting a ripple comprises a high pass filter.
  • the additional circuitry needed for a motor which does not already have a suitable fan speed output can be kept to a minimum.
  • the controller may be adapted to:
  • the permeability characteristics maybe known in advance and taken into account in the algorithm implemented by the controller.
  • filter permeability information can be calibrated at the production line. For instance, after filter manufacture, the filter permeability can be measured by a flow rate and pressure measurement device. Permeability information can then be written into a memory of the controller for use by the algorithm run by the controller.
  • the breathing flow from the user e.g. through the nose, can be determined.
  • the controller is preferably adapted to determine the timing of inhaling and exhaling from the pressure (e.g. proxy pressure), and to derive the breathing flow rate during inhalation or exhalation.
  • a breathing flow volume can then be derived from the breathing flow rate over the time of a breathing inhalation or exhalation.
  • the controller preferably then derives a VO2 measure from the breathing flow volume and breathing rate.
  • a maximum VO2 level is recorded over a time period and provided to the output as the breathing flow information. This time period may be a fixed time duration or it may be a variable time period during which a particular exercise task is being conducted, such as a run or cycle.
  • the filter forms a boundary directly between the air chamber and the ambient surroundings outside the air chamber. This provides a compact arrangement which avoids the need for flow transport passageways. It means the user is able to breathe in through the filter.
  • the filter may have multiple layers. For example, an outer layer may form the body of the mask (for example a fabric layer), and an inner layer may be for removing finer pollutants. The inner layer may then be removable for cleaning or replacement, but both layers may together be considered to constitute the filter, in that air is able to pass through the structure and the structure performs a filtering function.
  • the filter thus preferably comprises an outer wall of the air chamber and optionally one or more further filter layers. This provides a particularly compact arrangement and enables a large filter area, because the mask body performs the filtering function. The ambient air is thus provided directly to the user, when the user breathes in, through the filter.
  • the fan may be only for drawing air from inside the air chamber to the outside. In this way, it may at the same time promote a supply of fresh filtered air to the air chamber even during exhalation, which improves user comfort.
  • the pressure in the air chamber may be below the outside (atmospheric) pressure at all times so that fresh air is always supplied to the face.
  • the volume of the air chamber is for example less than 250cm 3 .
  • the volume of the air chamber is for example less than 250cm 3 .
  • the invention also provides a non-therapeutic method of controlling a pollution mask, the method comprising:
  • the pollution mask is not a mask for delivering therapy to a patient
  • the method may comprise determining a pressure between the air chamber and the ambient surroundings from the rotation speed of the fan, such that the fan speed is used as a proxy of pressure measurement.
  • the method may comprise:
  • information is preferably obtained about the body mass of the user.
  • a pre-defined table may then provide a mapping between the breathing flow volume and rate and the VO2 measure by taking account of this body mass information.
  • the body mass information may include information relating to age, gender and weight. This information may be input by the user through an app running on an external device (e.g. smartphone) with which the mask communicates.
  • the invention provides a pollution mask with a filter and fan monitors a rotation speed of the fan and a pressure between the mask air chamber and the ambient surroundings. Breathing flow information is then obtained from these monitored parameters, and breathing flow information (such as an oxygen uptake rate) is provided to a user of the mask.
  • breathing flow information such as an oxygen uptake rate
  • This mask functions both as a pollution mask, and an analysis system from providing breathing flow information, for example for personal health and/or fitness monitoring.
  • Figure 1 shows a face mask with automatic fan speed control.
  • a subject 10 is shown wearing a face mask 12 which covers the nose and mouth of the subject.
  • the purpose of the mask is to filter air before it is breathed in the subject.
  • the mask body itself acts as an air filter 16. Air is drawn in to an air chamber 18 formed by the mask by inhalation. During inhalation, an outlet valve 22 such as a check valve is closed due to the low pressure in the air chamber 18.
  • the filter 16 may be formed only by the body of the mask, or else there may be multiple layers.
  • the mask body may comprise an external cover formed from a porous textile material, which functions as a pre-filter. Inside the external cover, a finer filter layer is reversibly attached to the external cover. The finer filter layer may then be removed for cleaning and replacement, whereas the external cover may for example be cleaned by wiping.
  • the external cover also performs a filtering function, for example protecting the finer filter from large debris (e.g. mud), whereas the finer filter performs the filtering of fine particulate matter.
  • outlet valve 22 When the subject breathes out, air is exhausted through the outlet valve 22.
  • This valve is opened to enable easy exhalation, but is closed during inhalation.
  • a fan 20 assists in the removal of air through the outlet valve 22. Preferably, more air is removed than exhaled so that additional air is supplied to the face. This increases comfort due to lowering relative humidity and cooling.
  • the outlet valve may be a simple passive check valve operated by the pressure difference across the filter 16. However, it may instead be an electronically controlled valve.
  • the different prevailing pressure will manifest itself as a different load to the fan, since there is a different pressure drop across the fan. This altered load will then result in a different fan speed.
  • the rotation speed of the fan may thus be used as a proxy for a measurement of pressure across the fan. This is a preferred implementation because it uses fewer sensors.
  • the concept of the invention may be implemented with pressure sensors for obtaining the breathing characteristics.
  • the pressure monitoring enables determination of a pressure, or at least a pressure change, on the other side of the fan.
  • This other side is for example a closed chamber which thus has a pressure different to atmospheric pressure.
  • the pressure variation as detected based on monitoring the fan rotation speed, may be used to obtain information about the breathing of the user.
  • a first value may represent the depth of breathing and a second value may represent the rate of breathing.
  • the means for determining a rotation speed may comprise an already existing output signal from the fan motor or a separate simple sensing circuit may be provided as an additional part of the fan. However, in either case the fan itself is used so that no additional sensors are required.
  • FIG 2 shows one example of the components of the system.
  • the same components as in Figure 1 are given the same reference numbers.
  • Figure 2 shows a controller 30, a local battery 32 and a means 36 for determining the fan rotation speed. It shows an output 38 for providing output information to the user. It could be an integrated display, but more preferably it is a wireless communications transmitter (or transceiver) for sending data to a remote device such as a smartphone, which can then be used as the final user interface for providing data to the user, and optionally for receiving control commands from the user for relaying to the controller 30.
  • a wireless communications transmitter or transceiver
  • the smartphone may also be used for inputting user information to create a user profile.
  • the user profile includes at least the age, weight and gender of the user, since these may be used to convert between a breathing volume and an oxygen uptake level, as explained further below.
  • the fan 20 comprises a fan blade 20a and a fan motor 20b.
  • the fan motor 20b is an electronically commutated brushless motor
  • the means for determining rotation speed comprises an internal sensor of the motor.
  • Electronically commutated brushless DC fans have internal sensors that measure the position of the rotor and switch the current through the coils in such a way that the rotor rotates. The internal sensor is thus already provided in such motors to enable feedback control of the motor speed.
  • the motor may have an output port on which the internal sensor output 34 is provided. Thus, there is a port which carries a signal suitable for determining the rotation speed.
  • the means for determining the rotation speed may comprise a circuit 36 for detecting a ripple on the electrical supply to the motor 20b.
  • the ripple results from switching current through the motor coils, which cause induced changes in the supply voltage as a result of the finite impedance on the battery 32.
  • the circuit 36 for example comprises a high pass filter so that only the signals in the frequency band of the fan rotation are processed. This provides an extremely simple additional circuit, and of much lower cost than a conventional pressure sensor.
  • the motor can be of any design, including a two-wire fan with no in-built sensor output terminal. It will also work with a DC motor with brushes.
  • the respiration cycle timing information may then be used to control the outlet valve 22 in dependence on the phase of the respiration cycle.
  • the fan speed monitoring thus provides a simple way to determine inhalation phases, which may then be used to control the timing of the outlet valve 22 of the mask.
  • the controller may turn off the fan during an inhalation time or an exhalation time. This gives the mask different operating modes, which may be used to save power.
  • the calibration process for example involves analyzing the fan speed information over a period during which the subject is instructed to inhale and exhale regularly with normal breathing. The captured fan speed information can then be matched to the breathing cycle, from which threshold values can then be set for discriminating between inhalation and exhalation.
  • Figure 3A shows schematically the rotor position (as a measured sensor voltage) against time.
  • the rotational speed may be measured from the frequency of the AC component (caused by the switching events in the motor) of the DC voltage to the fan.
  • This AC component originates from the current variation that the fan draws, imposed on the impedance of the power supply.
  • Figure 3A shows the signal during inhalation as plot 40 and during exhalation as plot 42. There is a frequency reduction during exhalation caused by an increased load on the fan by the increased pressure gradient. The observed frequency changes thus results from the different fan performance during the breathing cycle.
  • Figure 3B shows the frequency variation over time, by plotting the fan rotation speed versus time. There is a maximum difference in fan rotation speed ⁇ fan between successive maxima and minima, and this correlates with the depth of breathing. This is the first value derived from the fan rotation signal. The time between these points is used to derive the second value, for example the frequency corresponding to this time period (which is then twice the breathing rate).
  • the first value maybe obtained from the raw fan rotation signal or there may be smoothing carried out first.
  • the maximum swing there are at least two different two ways to calculate the maximum swing, based on untreated real-time speeds or treated speeds. In practice, there is noise or other fluctuations added on the real-time signals.
  • a smoothing algorithm may be used to treat the real-time signal and calculate the first value from the smoothed signal.
  • fan operation forces air out of the area between face and mask. This enhances comfort because exhalation is made easier. It can also draw additional air onto the face which lowers the temperature and relative humidity. Between inhalation and exhalation, the fan operation increases comfort because fresh air is sucked into the space between the face and the mask thereby cooling that space.
  • the outlet valve is closed (either actively or passively) and the fan can be switched off to save power. This provides a mode of operation which is based on detecting the respiration cycle.
  • the power to the fan can be increased by 30% for enhanced effectiveness.
  • the pressure monitoring may be used to measure the flow resistance of the filter, in particular based on the pressure drop across the fan and filter. This can be done at switch on, when the mask is not on the face for a period of time. That resistance can be used as a proxy for the age of the filter.
  • a fan using an electronically commutated brushless DC motor has internal sensors that measure the position of the rotor and switch the current through the coils in such a way that the rotor rotates.
  • FIG. 4 shows an H-bridge circuit which functions as an inverter to generate an alternating voltage to the stator coils 50 of the motor from a DC supply VDD, GND.
  • the inverter has a set of switches S1 to S4 to generate an alternating voltage across the coil 50.
  • the switches are controlled by signals which depend on the rotor position, and these rotor position signals may be used to monitor the fan rotation.
  • the mask basically needs to calculate the user's breathing ventilation. Based on the breathing ventilation, the oxygen uptake rate VO2 is then calculated. Optionally, based on the VO2 level for different activities, a measure of fitness or sports progress can also be derived. Thus, the mask may provides fitness training information in addition to physiologic data such as oxygen uptake rates.
  • BVR is the breathing ventilation rate in L/min
  • V is the individual breath volume
  • f is the breathing frequency (i.e. breathing rate).
  • differential pressure sensor or the fan rotation signal to measure the breathing ventilation rate can be applied to any architecture of intelligent mask, such as with an exhalation fan direction, inhalation fan direction or both.
  • the inhaled or exhaled volume is to be calculated. This example is based on the exhaled breath volume.
  • the volume depends on the breathing flow rate FR nose (e.g. from the nose) and the fan flow rate FR fan , and the air flow through the filter.
  • FR nose e.g. from the nose
  • fan flow rate FR fan the air flow through the filter.
  • Figure 5A shows the situation with FR nose ⁇ FR fan , P cavity ⁇ 0 with filter air flow entering the chamber 18.
  • Figure 5B shows a situation with FR nose >FR fan , P cavity >0 with the filter air flow leaving the chamber 18.
  • the value K is a permeability coefficient, and different filters have different value of K.
  • the value FR filter is obtained.
  • FR nose FR fan ⁇ FR filter , if P cavity ⁇ 0
  • n t / n 0 P cavity t / P cavity 0
  • n(0) is the default fan speed when the cavity pressure is P cavity (0)
  • P cavity (0) is the baseline of the cavity pressure, which means the user is not breathing.
  • n(t) is the fan speed at time t and when the cavity pressure is P cavity (t).
  • t 0 is the time at which an exhalation cycle began
  • t n is the time at which exhaling finished.
  • a user profile is used from which the weight, age and gender of the user is extracted.
  • the information of age, gender and weight is for example input using an app on the smartphone (or other user input device) when the user uses the mask for the first time, in order to set up their user profile. They may of course update this profile to reflect changes in their weight over time (and the age may be updated automatically).
  • Values a and b can be determined in known manner, for example as outlined in T. Johnson: A guide to selected algorithms, distribution, and databases used in exposure models developed by the office of air quality planning and standards, in U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, North Carolina, 2002 .
  • mappings are approximations, and a number of different approximations are possible.
  • the VO2 consumption when the user is using the mask can be calculated.
  • a VO2max value can be recorded.
  • the user may perform a 3km or 5km run, by recording the maximum value of VO2 during the run, the VO2max value can be estimated.
  • the mask of the invention provides information which can be used as feedback which reflects the fitness level, and can be monitored for improving after a prolonged regime of exercise following an exercise protocol. With different exercise intensity, the ventilation and VO2 will be different.
  • the exercise protocol can be based on any kind of sports activity such as jogging, running or biking. Take running for example, a user can wear the mask during a run for the same distance within the same controlled time every day. Using digital connectivity from the mask to a remote device such as a smart watch or smart phone, the user can obtain the ventilation and VO2 data every time the run is complete. This data can be stored in the smart phone, and the data can be plotted each the user wants to see the progress. The user can see the fitness improvement level. The data may be processed to be presented in a more user friendly way, for example giving fitness and progress information.

  • the mask is for filtering ambient air.
  • the mask design described above has the main air chamber formed by the filter material, through which the user breathes in air.
  • An alternative mask design has the filter in series with the fan as also mentioned above. In this case, the fan assists the user in drawing in air through the filter, thus reducing the breathing effort for the user.

  • low pressure may be caused by the fan by during exhalation and by the user during inhalation (when the fan may be turned off).
  • An alternative option is the use of the fan only for drawing air from the ambient surroundings to inside the air chamber.
  • the fan operates to increase the pressure in the air chamber, but the maximum pressure in the air chamber in use remains below 4 cmH2O higher than the pressure outside the air chamber, in particular because no high pressure assisted breathing is intended.
