Definitions

  • This invention relates to an anesthesia vaporizer and, in particular, to a vaporizer for an anesthesia apparatus which uses an anesthetic that is liquid at normal temperatures.
  • anesthesia apparatus using a vaporizer for the anesthetic that is liquid at normal temperatures
  • a portion of the gas is fed through the vaporizer while the other portion of the gas by-passes the vaporizer and then is combined with the gas that has gone through the vaporizer.
  • throttle valves are provided in the pipes.
  • the by-pass pipe is provided with a constant flow throttle valve while a variable flow control valve is put in the pipe on the outlet side of the vaporizer.
  • the object of this invention is to avoid the above-mentioned disadvantage in a vaporizer for anesthetics liquid at normal temperatures.
  • the gas feed or intake pipe for the vaporizer includes a length of pipe such that the back pressure flow due to pulsations in the vaporizer will not reach the by-pass line. Consequently, the advantage is achieved in that pressure pulsations in the vaporizer will not cause any change in the mixture ratio between the gases from the vaporizer and the gases from the by-pass line as discharged from the device.
  • Gas such as air, an air mixture, a nutritive gas mixture with or without the addition of cyclopropane, laughing gas or the like, enters the device through pipe 1 leading into distribution chamber 2.
  • a pipe 3 connects chamber 2 with the vaporizer 4 containing an anesthetic liquid at normal temperatures.
  • Outlet pipe 5 containing a variable control throttle valve 6 connects with pipe 7 extending into the gas mixing chamber 8.
  • the by-pass line 9 is joined in parallel to vaporizer 4 and contains a throttle valve 16. Both valves 6 and 19 are adjustable.
  • Outlet tube 11 from the chamber 8 is 3,158,154 Patented Nov. 24, 1964 connectable to pipe means leading to the patient.
  • pressure pulsations occur in the vaporizer chamber 13 in accordance with the pulsations produced in the pipe 11 and mixing chamber 8 by reason of the breathing of the patient.
  • These pressure pulsations in vaporizer chamber 13 cause a blackflow of gas through pipe 3 into distribution chamber 2 and into by-pass line 9.
  • the length of the included pipe 12 in the intake pipe 3 is such that, when a maximum pressure pulse occurs in vaporizing chamber 13, the gas enriched with the vaporized anesthetic will not backdow all the Way to the distribution chamber 2 and, consequently, will not reach the mixing chamber 8 through by-pass line 9.
  • a vaporizer for an anesthetic, liquid at normal temperatures as used in an anesthesia apparatus, said vaporizer having a gas inlet distributor chamber, pipe means for supplying gas into said distributor chamber, a liquid anesthetic vaporizer unit, first pipe means joining said distributor chamber to said vaporizer unit for leading intake gas from said distributor chamber into said unit, a gas mixing chamber, second pipe means connecting said vaporizer unit to said mixing chamber for leading vaporized gas from said unit to said mixing chamber, by-pass pipe means joining said distributor chamber to said .illiX- ing chamber, valve means for controlling the flow of gas through said vaporizer, and outlet tube means for exhaust ing gas from said mixing chamber, the improvement in which said first pipe means has a relatively long length as compared to said second pipe means to prevent normal gas backfiow from said vaporizer unit due to pressure pulsations caused by the breathing of the user of the vaporizer from reaching said distribution chamber and said by-pass pipe means.
  • said first pipe means comprising a tube coil.
