In use, with the parts arranged as shown in the drawings, when the device is not being used the parts can be conveniently stored in a compact arrangement within the pack or case 10 as shown in FIG. 2. Then, when it is desired to use the device, the user can open the flaps, such as the flaps 11, so as to remove the face mask 16, and the face mask 16 can then be mounted on the face or nose and mouth as shown in FIG. 1, whereby the head strap 17 will retain the face mask 16 on the face 18. By exercising normal breathing, the air can be exhaled and inhaled through the closed system, so that, for example, the exhaled air from the user can pass through the face mask 16, then through the hose l9, and then past the relief valve 25 into the cannister 21 whereby the material 22 within the cannister 21 will remove impurities from the air and wherein the material 22 will also help purify the air and absorb or remove the carbon dioxide. The purified air can then flow outwardly past the valve 26 and then through the hose 20 to be returned as clean pure air to the face mask 16 so that this air can be inhaled by the user. At the same time, a flexible bag 33 in the compartment 15 can alternately expand and contract during this breathing since the bag 33 is connected to the cannister 21 as at 34. The vent 35 provides a means for equalizing pressure within the compartment 15 so that the bag 33 can expand and contract in the desired manner. The port 36 can provide a means for connecting the compartment 14 to a suitable source of oxygen is desired, so that this oxygen can be suitably directed into the cannister 21 through a suitable valve or hose arrangement whereby the system can be maintained in its proper condition.
It is to be understood that the parts can be made of any suitable material and in different shapes or sizes as desired or required.
The life support system and rebreather of the present invention can be used in automobiles, aircraft, as well as in other locations such as in connection with mine safety equipment. The device is adapted to be made at low cost. When the device is being used in a vehicle, such as an automobile for example, it can be placed on the front seat or the floor and then when it is to be used, the face mask 16 can be clamped on the face so that the person can use the device without breathing in polluted air or impure air. The bag 33 can alternately extend and retract during breathing. The material 22 may be of a conventional type such as soda lime. The present invention is a closed system and when the user is wearing or using the device, the user does not inhale the polluted air but instead inhales the purified air. Thus. the user uses his own or her own air over and over again until all of the air is used up. The device can be worn as shown in FIG. 1, as a back pack and when the user exhales or breathes out, it causes the air to inflate the bag 33, and as the air passes back and forth through the cannister 21, the material 22 will rejuvenate the air and remove the carbon dioxide. The compartments, such as the compartments l3, l4 and provide a convenient means for storing the various parts, as shown in the drawings.
The present invention is characterized by its simplicity and, for example, uses no electricity to actuate the device and there is no medication and the device works merely by the user breathing in the normal manner. The valves 25 and 26 in the opposite ends of the cannister 21, assure continuous air flow in the proper manner. The face mask 16 does not protect the eyes and only covers the nose and the mouth. With the present invention, carbon dioxide and water vapour can be removed with the filter or cannister 21. The device is a low pressure system. Also, the device can be mass produced and can be placed in mines, asbestos and cement plants, and the device does not have to be recharged and re-sterilized and can be thrown away after use, and the various parts can be made of inexpensive plastic.
With the present invention, when the user exhales, air passes through the face mask 16, through a flexible hose, such as the hose [9 and then into the cannister 21 and into the bag 33. When the user inhales, the bag 33 is contracted so that the air flows back through the hose 34 then through the cannister 21 and back through a hose to the face mask 16 so that the user can breathe in clean or pure air.
As shown in FIG. 2 a plurality of openings or vents 35 may be provided.
In FIG. 2 the numeral 40 indicates an oxygen bottle or container that is adapted to be arranged in a casing or compartment 41 and wherein a spring member 42 may be arranged adjacent the oxygen supply container 40. The numeral 43 indicates a manually operable button or plunger that can be manually actuated in order to energize a valve arrangement to permit oxygen to flow from the container 40 through a hose 44 into the canister 21 when it is desired to inject or supply oxygen to the unit.
Also, as shown in FIG. 2, seals 45 are arranged in the vicinity of certain of the hoses to provide a tight joint at the points.
By using the oxygen supply 40, oxygen can be placed in the system when desired or required. The seals 45 help prevent undesired gases and the like from entering a chamber such as the chamber 14. With the present invention carbon dioxide is removed and oxygen can be put into the system. The present invention may use a plunger such as the manually operable plunger 43 to start the flow of oxygen.
