- ABSTRACT A manifold nebulizer system for use in a breathing circuit.
- the system includes a nebulizer module and an exhaust module.
- the nebulizer module consists of a via] to contain liquid and has structure for producing an aerosol of liquid particles for entrainment in a stream of gas.
- the exhaust module has a valve for facilitating inhalation of the aerosol by the patient and removal of exhaled gases received from the patient. Adjustable surfaces are on the modules to permit relative movement therebetween. In this manner, the manifold nebulizer is capable of assembly into a multiplicity of flow line arrangements and positions.
- the present invention deals with an inexpensive single patient manifold nebulizer system designed primarily to provide the user with the versatility necessary to conform to the numerous in-use configurations and functional requirements without the high cost inherent in reusable units.
- a manifold nebulizier designed for use in gas flow circuitry such as in a breathing circuit includes a nebulizer module consisting of a cap portion containing a nebulizing chamber therein and a through passageway thereacross. Means are provided on the cap portion for connection to a main source of gas and to facilitate passage of said gas through the cap portion.
- the cap includes a depending skirt to receive in sealed relationship a vial designed to contain liquid.
- a means for connection to a gas source to drive the nebulizer means is provided.
- a nozzle depends inwardly of the cap in communication with the gas from the secondary source so as to direct the gas at high velocity into the nebulizing chamber.
- An aspiration tube is adjacent to and in fluid communication with the nozzle and extends into the liquid so that when gas passes through the nozzle the venturi effect will draw the liquid through the tube and facilitate entrainment of said liquid in particulate form within the gas.
- a baffle means depends from the nozzle to remove large liquid particles and provide the desired particle size distribution. Secondary means are in the cap to divert a portion of main gas flow into the nebulizing chamber and to direct a portion of the main flow of gas into communication with the aerosol created therein to aid in transferring the aerosol into the main gas flow passageway for discharge from the nebulizer module.
- the manifold nebulizer also includes an exhaust module having a body portion which is removably connectable to the nebulizer module.
- An exhaust valve assembly is on the body portion and includes an exhaust opening.
- One end of the exhaust module is adapted to be coupled to a mouthpiece assembly for use by a patient.
- Adjustable surfaces are on the manifold nebulizer to permit relative movement between the modules thereof to thereby facilitate use of the nebulizer in a breathing circuit.
- nebulizer When the nebulizer is connected to a gas source and a patient inhales, a nebulized aerosol of gas and liquid particles will be inhaled. When the patient exhales, the valve assembly will open permitting the expired gas to pass through the exhaust opening and out of the circuit.
- the versatile modular configuration consisting of a nebulizer module and an exhaust module including a valve assembly are each capable of functioning independently. Alternatively, they can be combined to conform to the classical series configuration of modules or in a parallel nebulizer module and exhaust module configuration.
- the system is designed for intermittent positive pressure or ventilator usage.

- FIG. 9 is an enlarged fragmentary perspective view thereof showing how the post is removed from the bracket portion of a module.
- a manifold nebulizer system 20 as depicted in FIGS. 1 and 2 includes two major component modules. There invests is a nebulizer module 21 and an exhaust module The two modules are connected together and at the connection joint is a removable mounting post 23. The opposite side of the nebulizer module ii is connected to a supply hose A source of gas under pressure supplies gas through supply hose and to the system. A secondary small supply hose 25 is also connected to the source of gas.
- the exhaust modules has its outlet side opposed to the nebulizer module which can be connected to a breathing hose which terminates in a mouthpiece 27 or other connector for transmittal to the patient.
- a small tube 28 connects the top of nebulizer module Zll to the top of exhaust module 22 via a pressure reducer 3'7.
- tube 23a may be connected directly to the source of gas. All of the above discussed components of the system are of a disposable plastic material so that they may be used for a single patient and then disposed of after use.
- the upper portion of the module includes a cap 2').
- a cylindrical inlet connection Bil extends laterally from one side of cap 29 and an outlet connection 31 extends laterally from the diametrically opposite side of cap 29.
- the central portion. of cap 29 is predominantly hollow on the inside.
- Connectors 3t]? and 31 are aligned and have aligned through passageways 32 and 33 respectively.
- the connectors are open to the exterior of the cap and passageways and 33; communicate to provide a continuous through passageway in cap 29. This is demonstrated by the arrows in FIG. 2.
- Connectors fill and each have an amuilar flange 34 at the extreme end to form a grip ring for intercom nection with the cult of hose 24 as shown in FIG. i. This prevents blow -off of the hose 2% during operation of the system.
- a tubular projection Extending upward from the central portion of cap 2.9 is a tubular projection with a passageway as therethrough.
- a pressurcreducer can be attached on the open upper end of tubular extension 35 in frictional engagement therewith.
- a supply tube 25 can be attached directly to projection as or to projection 38 on reducer 37 as shown.
- Reducer 37 also includes a lateral tubular portion 39 which has a passageway ull therethrough communicating with the interior of reducer a7.
- Lateral projection 39 is adapted to receive one end of hose thereon to provide fluid communication between the interior of hose 2.8 and the interior of cap Projection 35 extends inwardly of cap 29 to form a nozzle housing it.
- a nozzle l2 having a passageway therethrough and terminating in a restricted opening is mounted in nozzle housing and communicates with passageway as and ultimately with secondary gas source as.
- a baffle assembly is affixed to the nozzle housing ill and includes a lateral baflle member in alignment with the exit opening of nozzle d?) and an orifice 45 located intermediate baffle fl and the opening of nozzle 42 and substantially perpendicular to the flow of gas from nozzle 42.
- the baffle assembly d receives an aspiration or suction tube as therein with the passageway through tube 46 in communication with orifice
- the nozzle, nozzle housing and baffle assembly are housed within a tu bular chamber W defined by wall 47 extending downwardly from cap 29 and concentric with the cylindrical skirt 48 of cap 29.
- the chamber 419 is open at the bottom to facilitate exit of exhaust gases as shown by the arrows in FIG. 2 and has a pair of diametrically opposed openings or orifrees 50 adjacent the top of the chamber.
- Each opening Sil is in alignment with one of the aligned connector portions of cap 29. These openings provide an inlet means for additional gas from the main supply tube 24 to enter the chamber 4%! and pass therethrough to facilitate mixing and transfer of aerosol from the nebulizer chamber out through lateral connector 31. This flow path is depicted by arrows inFlG. 2.
- Plug 51a can be hinged to bushing 51 in any convenient fashion to alleviate the danger of its loss when it is removed from the opening in the cap.
- a thermometer can be inserted to determine mainstream temperatures or medicaments can be introduced for use in the system.
- plug 51a can be replaced in a tight leak-proof fashion or" a vial 54.
- the top of vial 54 is open and the upper rim of the vial engages with a gasket 55 in cap 29 to provide a sealed engagement point between theupper edge of the vial and the cap 29.
- Vial 54 is transparent and is designed to contain liquid to be introduced into the gas flow during operation ofthe manifold nebulizer.
- Suction tube as extends downward into vial 54 and has its bottom edge 56 located in a bulb-like reservoir 57 in the bottom of the vial. The dimensions of reservoir 57 are less than the dimensions ofthe remainder of the vial so that complete liquid usage is obtained. In many environments, the liquid would contain a medication for use in the system.
- a rib 58 is present on the bottom of reservoir 57. In this manner, the tube is prevented from occluding on the reservoir bottom while still being close enough to the bottom of the vial to remove substantially all of the liquid from the vial.
- a graduated scale 59 is on the transparent reservoir so that liquid levels can be closedly controlled for medical applications.
- Exhaust module 22 includes a cylindrically shaped body portion 60 which is open at the top and bottom.
- a lateral tubular connector 61 extends from one side of body 60 and a second lateral tubular connector 62 extends from the other side of body 611.
- the tubular connectors on the exhaust module are diametrically opposed and communicate on one end with the interior chamber of the exhaust module and at the other end with the exterior of the exhaust module. In this manner, a through passageway exits through the exhaust module in a lateral direction.
- the arrows in FIG. 2 depict gas flow through the lateral passageway.
- Tubular connector 61 has an inner diameter large enough so that connector 31 of the nebulizer module 21 can be received therein in tight frictional engagement. In this manner, a lateral passageway is provided in manifold nebulizier from the rear tip of connector to the forward tip of connector 62. The end portion 63 of connector 61 is flared outwardly on the inner surface to facilitate a snap-in fit with connector 31 of the nebulizer module. In this manner, reliable connection between the modules is assured.
- Connector 62 on the opposite side of the exhaust module 22 has a flanged outer rim 64 which facilitates the provision of a lock ring type of engagement with the cuff of a connected hose such as hose 26.
- FIG. 1 displays connector 62 in engagement with hose 26 for transmittal to and from the patient.
- a peripheral rim 65 surrounding the bottom opening of a body portion has an inner flange 66 adapted to receive collection chamber 67 in a snap fit arrangement.
- the upper rim of collection chamber 67 contains a similar exterior flange 68 together with a spaced annular shoulder 69.
- Flanges 68 and 69 interchange with rim and flange 66 in a snap-in arrangement for assembly of the exhaust module.
- the collection chamber 67 can be removed by merely deforming the plastic slightly to disengage the interengaged flanges.
- Collection chamber 67 is hollow and terminates in a lateral exhaust tube 70 which is open to the exterior of the manifold nebulizer 20.
- the top of the collection chamber 67 is open so that it communicates with the interior of body portion 60 when attached thereto and exhaled gases can be transmitted through the body and out of the exhaust outlet tubes 70 as shown by the arrows in FIG. 2.
- a down draft exhaust configuration is provided.
- a sump 71 is provided in the interior base of collection chamber 67 below the exhaust tube 70 for accumulation of condensate.
- the exhaust port and tube 70 is of a desirable size for ready connection to a hose attachment used in conventional spirometry procedures. (not shown).
- Collection chamber 67 can also be rotated in a 360 horizontal plane.
- the upper outer rim 72 of body 60 contains a bead on its circumference for interengagement with the beaded rim 73 of a cap 74.
- a central tubular valve seat 75 Concentric with rim 72 is a central tubular valve seat 75 open at the top and bottom to permit communication with the interior of body 60 and the exterior thereof.
- a resilient diaphragm valve member 76 Seated over the upper edge of tubular valve seat 75 is a resilient diaphragm valve member 76.
- the central portion 77 of valve member 76 is of larger diameter than the valve seat 75 and occludes seat 75 when pressure is applied within the internal portion of cap 74 so as to prevent gases from flowing out of the interior of body 60.
- valve member 76 extends outwardly from the center portion through a convolution portion 78 and a rim portion 79.
- the convolution portion is designed to permit the diaphragm 77 to be moved away from seat '75 with a minimum of force.
- the rim portion 79 is fixed in position between cap 74 and rim 72 on the upper edge of body 60 thus sealing this joint. This forms a rolling convolution valve diaphragm which is sensitive to small pressure changes and has a low exhalation retard.
- the valve actuating pressure is provided through tube 28 which is connected to the secondary gas supply source and is mounted on upright hollow extension 80 on cap 74. Thus. the tube 28 communicates with the interior of cap 7 1 above valve member 76.
- dome pressure seats the valve.
- the dome pressure is relieved and central portion 77 of the valve is forced upward and unseated from the upper rim of valve seat 75. Gases can then escape into the main body portion 60 of exhaust module 22 and down through exhaust attachment 67 and out through exhaust port 70. This action is depicted by the phantom arrows in FIG. 2.
- mounting post 23 is positioned on the exhaust module at the point where the exhaust module interengages with the nebulizer module.
- the interengagement between connectors 31 and 61 is of a frictional type and permits rotation therebetween so that the nebulizer module can rotate 360" with respect to the exhaust module without disconnecting the two modules or providing a leakage condition.
- the details of mounting post 23 are best depicted in FIG. 5 of the drawings with the exception of mounting knob 81 on the distal end of the handle portion 82 of post 23.
- Knob 81 provides a means for mounting of the entire assembly during use.
- the outer surface of connector 61 contains a plurality ofspaced longitudinal triangular ribs 83 about its circumference.
- the top and bottom diametrically opposed ribs include a central bead 84 for keying of the post in an upright position with respect to the exhaust module.
- the handle 82 of the post terminates at the end distal from the end containing knob 81 in a ring portion 85.
- Ring portion 85 has an inner diameter substantially the same as the outer diameter as connector 61 but slightly larger.
- a plurality of grooves 86 about the inner circumference of ring 85 are provided for alignment with ribs 83 of connector 61.
- post 23 can be oriented in eight different directions about a 360 revolution with respect to the exhaust module.
- This adds versatility to the modular arrangement of the system and is particularly useful in orienting the exhaust portion so that sump 71 is in any desired position as shown in FIG. 4.
- the rotation orientations of the system are many fold.
- gas under pressure is supplied through tubes 24 and 25 into the nebulizer module 21.
- the main flow of gas continues through the nebulizer module and on through the exhaust module through the interconnection of the lateral connectors as described above.
- the secondary source of gas through tube 25 is passed through nozzle 41 which aspirates liquid medicament into the chamber 49.
- Baffles are provided to break down particle size to the desired degree.
- a portion of the main flow of gas is directed through ports 50 into the chamber where it helps to gather the aerosol and carry it out of the bottom of the chamber and up into the main gas flow for transmittal to the patient.
- the aerosol flows through the exhaust module with the valve assembly closed by dome pressure exerted by the second gas source to the patient as he inhales.
- valve sealing dome pressure is relieved and the pressure of the exhalation gases unseat valve 76 and permit exit down through the exhaust passageways of body 60 and out through exhaust tube 70. Condensate is collected in sump 71.
- the valve will once again return to its relaxed position 77 over valve seat 75.
- Modules 21 and 22 are virtually identical with the modules of the previously discussed embodiment. There is no need for a pressure reducer 37 and secondary supply tube 25 is fastened directly to tubular extension of cap 29. Tube 28a can come from the original supply source as another secondary supply means and can be connected in a similar manner as in the previous embodiment to tubular extension 80 of the cap.
- Plug 87 has an appropriate handle 88 and may be removed if the module 22 is to be used in another fashion as in the previous embodiment where lateral connector 61 is employed.
- modules 21 and 22 are identical to the previous embodiment.
- the modified post 23a is best depicted in FIG. 9.
- Mounting knob 81 is not changed however handle arm 82a now terminates in a connector base 89 which is different in structure than ring 85 of post 23.
- the base 89 includes a pair of spaced horizontal rectangular plates 90 which support a pair of opposed rectangular shaped tongues 91 and 92.
- Each tongue is designed to receive one ofthe modules 21 and 22 so that both modules are mounted to post 230.
- Module 21 has a pair of opposed cup shaped brackets 93 formed on the outer skirt portion of the cap. Brackets 93 are positioned on the cap of nebulizer module 21 so that when a bracket 93 is positioned on a tongue of the post.
- nebulizer module 21 is mounted on tongue of the post.
- exhaust module 22 has a pair of opposed brackets 94 of the same configuration and size as receptacles 93 so that the exhaust module can also be mounted on either of the two tongues 91 and 92 of post 23a.
- Brackets 94 are on the exterior of the body portion of the exhaust module and are diametrically positioned so that the lateral through passageway of the module is perpendicular to the point at which the post 23a is mounted. In this manner, the through passageways of both modules are parallel which is in contrast to the previously discussed embodiment where the modules are in series. It can be readily seen how the modules can be interchanged with respect to the mounting position on post 23a.
- Tongues 91 and 92 extend upwardly into cup shaped brackets 93 and 94 so as to be captured within the U- shaped configuration of the brackets. Since the bracket is seated on the tongue in each case. the modules cannot be displaced in a downward direction and the end sides of each bracket retains the modules in a lateral position on the tongues of the post. Removal of the modules is retarded in an upward direction by the pres ence of beveled ribs 95 on the handle portion of post 23a.
- the resilient nature of the plastic modules and post make it possible for the bracket to be deformed and snapped in and out of position around the tongues and past the interference caused by beveled ribs 95. The ribs will retain the modules in position from removal in an upward direction until sufficient force is applied to cause deformation of the part at which time the modules can be removed from the post.
- FIG. 7 depicts the thermometer bushing 51 in open position with cap 51a having been removed from the opening in the top of the bushing 51.
- a thermometer 96 can then be passed through the opening and into the interior of the nebulizer module for the purpose of taking a gas temperature reading.
- the integrally mounted cap 51a can then be replaced in position sealing the opening in the bushing 51.
- Cap 510 can be mounted to the bushing 51 in any convenient fashion such as by being integrally molded with the port with the addition of flexible resilient arm 97 as depicted in FIG. 7.
- FIG. 6 shows the parallel embodiment 20a in assembled condition in a breathing system.
- Main supply tube 24 is connected as in the previous embodiment to nebulizer module 21.
- exit connector 31 of module 21 is connected to a first manifold hose 98 which terminates in connection with a manifold 99.
- One end of the manifold 99 is connected to the patient via currently used practice (for example. the mask 100 as shown).
- a further opening is in manifold 99 and is connected to an exhaust hose 101.
- the opposite end of the exhaust hose 101 is mounted on connector 62 of exhaust module 22.
- Secondary supply hoses 25 and 28a provide secondary gas to power the nebulizer module 21 and the valve module 22 respectively.
- Aerosol is produced within nebulizer module 21 in the same manner as in respect to nebulizer 20 and exits from nebulizer module 21 into hose 98. It then passes through manifold 99 and mouthpiece 100 to the patient.
- the valve assembly in exhaust module 22 will be opened in the same manner as in respect to manifold nebulizer 20 and the exhaled gases and other matter will pass through tube 101 into exhaust module 22. It will then pass out of the exhaust module in the same manner as in respect to manifold nebulizer 20.
- a disposable plastic manifold nebulizer system for use in a breathing circuit comprising:
- a nebulizer module including a cap portion having a chamber therein and a through passageway thereacross,
- cap portion forming at least one side of said through passageway for removal connection to a main source of gas to facilitate passage of gas through the cap portion;
- the cap having a depending skirt with means thereon for receiving in sealed relationship a vial designed to contain liquid;
- a tube in the cap and extending beyond the depending skirt so as to extend into the vial connected with the cap with one open end adjacent to and in fluid communication with the nozzle and the other open end in liquid contained in the vial so that when secondary gas passes from the nozzle it will entrain liquid from the tube and atomize said liquid into the gas stream baffle means in the cap to assist in removing large liquid particles in the chamber and to direct a portion of the primary flow of gas into the cap into communication with the aerosol to provide a homogenized mixture into the main gas flow passageway for discharge from the nebulizer module;
- releasable connection means on the nebulizer module and the exhaust module to permit the interconnection therebetween to provide an interchangeable configuration which could take the form of serial and parallel relationship between the modules thereby facilitating function of the manifold nebulizer with the nebulizer module and exhaust module in desired relative position to thereby facilitate use of the nebulizer in a variety of different breathing circuit configurations whereby when the nebulizer is connected to a primary gas source and a patient inhales an aerosol of liquid particles will be inhaled, and when the patient exhales, the valve assembly will open permitting the expired vapors to pass through the exhaust opening and out of the circuit.
