Abstract: A cushion assembly for a patient interface including an elastomeric support portion and an elastomeric seal-forming structure supported by the elastomeric support portion that is more rigid than the elastomeric seal-forming structure. The elastomeric seal-forming structure includes a first compliant region and a second compliant region separated from the first compliant region by a support region that is more rigid than the first and second compliant regions. The more rigid support region extends to and is anchored by the elastomeric support portion. In addition, for every point in the rigid support region, the inner surface has a negative curvature when the outer surface has a positive curvature and the inner surface has a positive curvature when the outer surface has a negative curvature.

Abstract: A cushion assembly for a patient interface includes an elastomeric seal-forming portion that includes a dome-shaped superior region (3180A); a saddle-shaped inferior region (3180G); a first support region (3180E) having a consistent wall thickness, preferably 2 mm, that is greater than the wall thickness of the dome-shaped superior and the saddle-shaped inferior regions, preferably 0.3 mm; a second support region (3180D) having a varied wall thickness and is bounded by the first support region (3180E) on a proximal side and having a distal side opposite the proximal side. In claim 1, the wall thickness in the second support region (3180D) increases from the distal side to the proximal side, preferably 2 to 1.3 mm. Preferably, wall thickness of a third support region (3180F) is 1.3 mm, a compliant region (3180C) is 0.85 mm and a flap (3180H) is 0.5 mm. Preferably flap (3180H) moves independently of a loop connection (3110).

Abstract: A patient interface for delivering breathable gas to a patient includes a foam interfacing portion adapted to provide a nasal interface to contact under and around the patient's nose in use and including an orifice adapted to surround both the patient's nares in use, and a positioning and stabilizing structure to support the foam interfacing portion in an operative position on the patient's face. The positioning and stabilizing structure is structured to provide a range of rotational, axial, and/or lateral movement to the foam interfacing portion while maintaining a sufficient interface and resisting the application of tube drag and/or headgear tension to the foam interfacing portion.

Abstract: One form of the present technology includes a sealing structure to seal against a user's face around the user's airways. The sealing structure includes a flap or membrane that extends inward towards the user's airways and includes a structure that prevents an inner boundary of the flap or membrane from being blown outwards (e.g., folded backwards upon itself) due to internal pressurization.

Abstract: A patient interface system for delivery of a supply of air at positive pressure to the entrance of a patient's airways for treatment of sleep disordered breathing includes an air delivery tube connected to a flexible portion of a plenum; a vent structure having sufficient rigidity to support its own weight under gravity and/or not to block or fold under tube movement or tube drag; and a patient interface structure. The patient interface structure includes a seal forming structure arranged on a top portion of the plenum; and a seal positioning and stabilizing structure connected to a flexible portion of the plenum. The seal-forming structure is substantially decoupled from a tube drag force.

Abstract: A respiratory assistance component is disclosed that changes shape when an electrical charge is provided. The amount of electrical charge that is applied may be based on values, characteristics, or user controlled parameters of the respiratory assistance system. The component may be all or part of a patient interface, a tube, a flow generator, and/or a sleep mat.

Abstract: A nasal assembly for delivering breathable gas to a patient includes a frame having lateral connector, a cushion with a pair of nozzles, and a clip to secure the cushion to the frame. The frame includes a vent channel and a plurality of vent holes. The frame/cushion includes structure (lugs/cut outs) to prevent the assembly of an unvented frame with an unvented cushion, for safety purposes. The frame includes cored portions that interface with corner lugs provided on the cushion. A patient interface includes a frame, a cushion (nasal mask, nasal-oro mask, nozzles, etc.) and a vent assembly including a pattern of vent holes including at least two rows.

Abstract: A PAP system is adapted for treatment of respiratory disease or sleep disordered breathing and includes a headgear adapted for engaging a patient's head. The PAP system also includes a patient interface adapted to be secured to and sealed against a portion of the patient's face, in use, by the headgear. The PAP system further includes a flow generator adapted to be connected to the patient interface. The flow generator is adapted to be secured by a portion of the headgear to the patient's head. In addition, the flow generator includes a blower adapted to provide pressurised breathable gas to a patient through the patient interface. The blower is at least partially vibrationally isolated from the patient's head by at least one foam layer mounted within the flow generator to secure the blower. The at least one foam layer is adapted to reduce the amount of transmitted vibration received by the patient. The flow generator also includes a mounting structure limiting a compression of the at least one foam layer due to the weight of the blower. The mounting structure includes at least one protrusion extending from an interior surface of the flow generator toward the blower.
