From the above description it follows that the apparatus has a complex structure and high cost. The prototype of the claimed device is a respiratory apparatus "Second Youth". The expansion of the technical capabilities of the device is provided by the technical result. The technical result is achieved in that in a breathing apparatus, which includes a mask, valves, inhalation and exhalation hoses, containers for fillers, a breathing tank and an air intake chamber, inside of which there is a glass containing a carbon dioxide absorber, a dehumidifier, a salt chamber separated by breathable partitions . The carbon dioxide absorber zone is divided into three chambers by additional breathable partitions. The volume ratio of the cameras thus formed is

K: (C + O): P ₁ : P ₂ : P ₃ = 0.15: 0.175,: 0.25: 0.25,

where K is the space between the walls of the air intake chamber and the walls of the glass;

C is the space of the volume of the salt chamber;

O - space volume of the chamber of the desiccant;

P ₁ - the volume space of the first chamber of the desiccant desiccant of carbon dioxide;

P ₂ - the volume space of the second chamber of the carbon dioxide absorber;

The essence of the proposed technical solution lies in the constructive maintenance of the optimal ratio of the camera volumes of the apparatus, allowing to expand its medical use.

Separation of the carbon dioxide absorber by additional breathable partitions into three chambers (compartments) ensures the achievement of the optimal ratio of the volumes of the absorber, dehumidifier and salt to ensure the operation of the apparatus in two modes: initially, hypoxicator, then capnicator. Breathable partitions in stationary mode provide the possibility of hypoxication, and if they are removed alternately, the possibility of treating patients with the device in the capnicator mode, using a carbon dioxide absorber, desiccant and salt that has already exhausted its useful life.

P ₃ - the volume of the third chamber of the carbon dioxide absorber,

in conjunction with the alternate removal of breathable partitions ensures the normal operation of the apparatus both in hypoxicator mode and in capnicator mode, while providing the necessary and sufficient conditions for treatment and prevention of a wide range of diseases. After using this unit as a hypoxicator, i.e. after normoboric hypoxic therapy, replacement of the carbon dioxide absorbent, desiccant and salt is not required; the apparatus is used as a capnicator. Thus, the medical capabilities of the device are expanding.

Providing the air intake chamber with a hole in the lower part of its front wall under the exhalation hose, and the breathing reservoir with a clamp, transfers the device from the operating mode as a hypoxicator to the operating mode as a capnicator, maintaining a constant required amount of intake air in the device and thereby expanding the medical capabilities of the device .

From the analysis of scientific, technical and patent literature of the claimed combination of features that provide two modes of operation of the apparatus, it is not revealed, which allows us to conclude that the claimed technical solution meets the criterion of "novelty."

The invention is illustrated in the drawing, where the figure shows a General view of the breathing apparatus in section.

The breathing apparatus contains a mask 1 with inhalation 2 and exhalation valves 3 located in it, inhalation hoses 4 and exhalation 5, a detachable air intake chamber 6 with a glass 7 located inside it. A breathing tank 8 is installed from the end of the air intake chamber 6. carbon dioxide absorber 9, desiccant 10 and salt chamber 11, separated by removable breathable partitions 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17. The partition 17, in turn, is also the lid of the glass 7. The carbon dioxide absorber 9 is divided into three compartments (P ₁ P ₂ , P ₃ ) with additional breathable partitions 13 and 14. Thus, the glass is divided by breathable partitions into five compartments (volumes): C (salt chamber), O (dehumidifier), P ₁ (first carbon dioxide absorber compartment), P ₂ (second carbon dioxide absorber compartment) and P ₃ (third carbon dioxide absorber compartment), and the air intake chamber also contains five chambers: 1st chamber - K (space between the walls of the air intake chamber and the walls of the glass) , 2nd chamber - С (salt chamber) + О (dehumidifier) and П ₁ , P ₂ and P ₃ - three chambers (compartments) of a carbon dioxide absorber. The ratio of the volumes of these cameras is respectively - 0.15: 0.175: 0.175: 0.25: 0.25. At the end of the intake chamber 6 there are inlet openings 18 of atmospheric air and a regulator 19. The inhalation hose 4 is equipped with a dust filter 20. At the bottom of the front wall (under the exhalation hose 5) of the intake chamber 6 there is a hole 21 for suction of atmospheric air with a cover 22. Respiratory the reservoir 8 is equipped with a clamp 23 from the side of its connection to the end wall of the air intake chamber 6.

The invention is as follows.

Before the start of the session, the patient or the attending physician checks the breathing apparatus for its mode of operation as a hypoxicator. For this, the opening 21 must be closed by a cover 22 so that there is no leakage of atmospheric air. Then the patient removes the clamp 23, straightens the breathing tank 8, made of plastic material. The regulator 19 opens the inlet 18 of atmospheric air.

The patient exhales atmospheric air into the mask 1 with the inhalation valve 2 closed, air through the exhalation valve 3 through the hose 5 begins to flow into the glass 7. Atmospheric air passes through the breathable partition 12 into the first compartment (chamber) (P ₁ ) of the carbon dioxide absorber 9 then through the partitions 13, 14 - into the second (P ₂ ) and third (P ₃ ) compartments (chambers) of the carbon dioxide absorber 9 and then through the partition 15 - to the dehumidifier (O) 10, where the air gives off moisture. Then purified from carbon dioxide and dehydrated air through the next partition 16 enters the salt chamber (C) 11, is saturated with salt vapors and then enters the breathing tank 8. The patient needs to take several breaths from the atmosphere and several exhalations into the mask 1 to fill the entire volume respiratory reservoir 8. The gas-air mixture in the reservoir contains oxygen in the range of 12-17% (ie, a reduced amount of oxygen compared to its content in atmospheric air) and salt vapors (aerosol NaCl).

After filling the breathing tank 8 with the treatment gas-air mixture, the patient starts breathing through the mask 1 with the valve 2 open. The gas-air mixture from the breathing tank 8 through the air intake chamber 6 through the hose 4 through the dust filter 20 enters the mask 1 and through it to the patient. Then the patient through the valve 4 exhales air, which then goes along the hose 5 all the way described above.

With each act of inhalation-expiration, the oxygen content in the inhaled air-gas mixture decreases (the amount of NaCl aerosol is constant), i.e. hypoxia is created. Thus, the effect of simultaneous exposure of the patient to hypoxia and aerosol therapy is created. The intake of external atmospheric air into the intake chamber 8 is carried out through the holes 18 and is regulated by the regulator 19 (the holes with the regulator can be of different diameters).

The patient inhales such a mixture until he feels difficulty breathing. At this point, he should end the session. For some time the patient breathes normal atmospheric air, then the session can be repeated. The course of treatment is usually from 10 to 30 days. After the end of the course of treatment in the mode of operation of the device as a hypoxicator, the patient (after consultation with the doctor) proceeds to treatment in the capnicator mode. For this, the patient loosens the clamp 23, releases the gas-air mixture from the breathing tank 8, then collects it into a lump and clamps it with the clamp 23. Then it opens the cover 21 of the hole 21, puts on the mask 1 and begins to breathe evenly, calmly without effort and breath holding. The volume of the gas-air mixture located between the inner walls of the air intake chamber 6 and the glass 7 at this stage is K = 0.15. The air exhaled by the patient from the mask 1 through the exhalation valve 3 through the exhalation hose 5 enters through the air-permeable baffle 12 into the glass 7, passes through the exhausted resource (i.e., non-absorbing carbon dioxide), the carbon dioxide absorber 9, and the desiccant 10 (dehydrated) ) and the salt chamber 11 and the air-permeable partitions 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 separating them. The components that have worked out their life in this case play the role of resistance on expiration. The exhaled gas-air mixture fills the air intake chamber 6, and the excess mixture can, if necessary, escape through the opening 21. When inhaling, the atmospheric air that is sucked up at this stage is mixed with carbon dioxide enriched in space K of the air intake chamber 6 and through the inhalation hose 4 through the inhalation valve 2 and mask 1 returns to the patient’s lungs. The duration of treatment at the first stage is from 1 to 1.5 months.

At the end of the first stage of training, a breathable septum 17 and 16 and, accordingly, salt from the salt chamber (C) 11 and a desiccant (O) 10 are removed from the glass 7; the new volume will be

 K + (C + O) = 0.325.

At this stage, there is a decrease in exhalation resistance. The breathing process is carried out similarly to the first stage. The duration of the second stage is from 1 to 1.5 months.

The third stage of training begins after the end of the second stage.

For this purpose, a breathable baffle 15 and a part of the absorber 9, i.e. the volume of the gas-air mixture will be

K + (C + O) + P ₁ = 0.5.

Resistance to inspiration is reduced. The breathing process is similar to the previous stages, its duration is 1-3 months.

The fourth stage begins after the end of the third with the removal of the breathable partition 14 and the second part of the carbon dioxide absorber 9. The volume of the air-gas mixture at this stage increases and will be

K + (C + O) + P ₁ + P ₂ = 0.75.

 The breathing process is similar to the previous ones, and its duration is 1-3 months. Output impedance is reduced.

The last (fifth) stage begins after the removal of the breathable partition 13 and the remaining carbon dioxide absorber 9. The volume will be

K + (C + O) + P ₁ + P ₂ + P ₃ = 1.

There is no exhalation resistance. The duration of the stage is 1-3 months.

The number and duration of stages depends on the state of health and on the age of the patient.

Such a device is compact, convenient to use, multi-functional, allows for treatment both in stationary conditions of clinics, hospitals, dispensaries and other medical institutions, as well as at home. The device allows for normobaric hypoxic therapy, creates the effect of a salt mine, and increases blood saturation with carbon dioxide to 6.5%.

The well-known breathing apparatus “Second Youth” has a complex structure. This is due to the use of soda lime as a carbon dioxide absorber. The chemical absorber in the process of work is destroyed, releasing dust and moisture, which fall together with air into the lungs of a person. It is with this that the complexity of the design aimed at eliminating this drawback is associated. The second reason for the complexity of the design is caused by the use of the device as a capnikator.

The device is not convenient in operation. The glass is filled manually: chemical absorber, desiccant, salt. Manually installed partitions. When carrying out these works it is necessary to use means of protection against dust. A full glass increases the weight of the device. The complexity of the design interferes with its sanitization. When the device is operating in the capnicator mode, all operations to remove the chemical absorber, salt, desiccant and all partitions are carried out manually. The purpose of the proposed utility model is to simplify the design, the purity of the inhaled gas mixture from dust, ease of use of the simulator, reducing costs, eliminating disadvantages. The specified goal is achieved by the new design of the simulator. It consists of an air intake chamber, a breathing tank with a cylindrical neck, which is worn on the air intake chamber and can move along it, fixed in the right place with a crimp elastic ring. The air intake chamber is equipped with a mobile breathable partition that moves inside the chamber, creating volumes of the gas mixture with different carbon dioxide contents. The air intake chamber is equipped with a crimp elastic ring moving along the walls of the chamber, a ventilation device consisting of a set of holes, sequentially overlapped by an elastic ring. The volume of the gas mixture in the simulator varies from 7 liters to 0.6 liters. The air intake chamber is connected by a hose to a mask. The connecting hose provides the function of inhaling and exhaling through the mask with the gas mixture from the simulator. The area of the ventilation openings is from 3.14 mm ² to 9.42 mm ² and with a decrease in volume of 7 l in the gas mixture inside the simulator creates hypoxia from 16% to 10%. In the capnicator mode, from 0.3% to 3.43% of carbon dioxide.

The figure 1 shows a breathing simulator.

The simulator has a one-piece air intake chamber 1, a respiratory elastic tank with a cylindrical neck 2, an elastic crimp ring 3, a movable breathable partition with a sealing ring 4, a crimp elastic ring 5 that closes the box for moving air inlet and exhaust gas mixture 6, the box with a handle with a breathable bottom and a lid, filled with sylvinite crystals with a size of 3-3.5 mm 7, elastic fixing box ring 8, a hose connecting the air intake a chamber with a mask 9, a mask without valves 10, labels for installing a mobile breathable partition 11. A breathing simulator is used in the mode of hypoxicator, capnicator and to create the effect of a salt mine. In the hypoxicator mode: the respiratory elastic reservoir 2 with the compression ring 3 is removed from the air intake chamber 1, the air permeable partition 4 is removed, the box 7 is removed, then the respiratory elastic reservoir 2 is put on the air intake chamber 1 to the mark 4 from the mask side and fixed with the elastic crimp ring 3. We move the crimp elastic ring 5, close the holes 6, leaving one hole open. The breathing simulator is ready for use as a hypoxicator. The user presses the mask to his face, and begins to calmly, without straining to breathe. Breathes five minutes. Takes off the mask. Breathes atmospheric air for 5 minutes. This is called a loop. Makes six such cycles without interruption. The full course of breathing is from 10 to 30 days. The percentage of oxygen in the gas mixture is from 15.24% to 10.06%. The salt mine effect is created during the operation of the hypoxicator. To do this, the elastic reservoir 2 is removed from the air intake chamber 1, the air-permeable partition 4 is removed and the box 7 is inserted all the way into the conical part of the air-intake chamber 1. An air-permeable wall 4 is inserted into the air-intake chamber 1, an elastic breathing tank 2 is put on to the air-intake chamber 1. The simulator is ready to work in hypoxicator mode with the effect of a salt mine. To use the breathing simulator as a capnik, the elastic reservoir 2 is removed from the air intake chamber 1, the air-permeable partition 4 and the box 7 are removed. The air-permeable partition 4 is installed at the first mark on the mask side 10 in the air intake chamber 1. The openings 6 are closed by an elastic crimp ring 5. The breathing simulator ready to work in the capnikator mode. The user presses the mask to his face and breathes smoothly, calmly, without tension through his nose. First time 5 minutes continuously once a day. Each subsequent day, adding 1 minute. So up to 30 minutes of continuous breathing. When installing a breathable partition on the first mark from the mask, the duration of the training is from 1 to 1.5 months for 30 minutes per day. After 1-1.5 months, the breathable partition moves to the next mark from the mask. The duration of the training is 1-1.5 months for 30 minutes a day continuously. Subsequently, the breathable partition is shifted to the next mark from the mask every 1-1.5 months of training. The duration of a daily workout of 30 minutes per day continuously. The total duration of training is from 6 to 10 months. The carbon dioxide content in the alveolar air is controlled by a capnometer or by the Buteyko method. The proposed design of the breathing simulator allows to reduce the number of parts from 23 to 11 pcs. Replace the mask with valves with a simple one. Refuse the chemical absorber, silica gel, hose, clamp, cup, reduce the dust content of the chemical absorber in the gas mixture to zero when operating in the hypoxicator mode. Reduce manufacturing costs. The simulator is used as a hypoxicator to increase the body's resistance to extreme loads, increases the body's performance. It is used for prophylaxis and breathing exercises, for aerosol therapy of users with depleted oxygen in the air, saturated with salt vapors. As a capnikator, it restores the blood supply to all vital organs of a person with a gas mixture saturated with carbon dioxide. The simulator can be used in any order, depending on the user's desire.
