摘要:
The present invention provides an artificial respiration apparatus 12 of a high oscillation type, in which oxygen supply to a patient P and exhaled gas discharge are urged by an oscillating gas having a higher frequency than the cycle of the patient respiration. The apparatus includes a discharge direction regulating mechanism 7 for regulating the exhaled gas to flow only in the discharge direction.

The present invention provides a small-size, small-weight, low-cost artificial respiration apparatus which can easily be used in an ordinary hospital. The artificial respiration apparatus 10 includes: a positive blower 12p for generating a positive air pressure Ap; a negative blower 12n for generating a negative air pressure An; a rotary valve mechanism 54 for alternately selecting the positive pressure Ap generated by the positive blower 12p and the negative pressure An generated by the negative blower 12n and converting them into an oscillating air pressure Apn; and a diaphragm block 56 urged by the oscillating air pressure Apn from the rotary valve mechanism 54 to operate to supply air to a patient P. Use of the positive blower 12p and the negative blower 12n significantly reduces the load, enabling to use ones available on market, i.e., small-size, small-weight, low-consumption blowers.

A novel batch-type kiln and a method of use thereof are provided. The kiln comprises a kiln body and a heating chamber disposed within the kiln body, which has a heater disposed therein. A table is disposed at the bottom of the heating chamber, the table having a peripheral portion and an upper surface for supporting an object to be treated. The peripheral portion of the table and a portion of the kiln body define a gap therebetween. This gap forms a gas-introducing path for introducing a gas into the heating chamber. The batch-type kiln is capable of preventing accumulation of a binder component in the gap between the table and the kiln wall.

摘要:
A system and method of controlling the termination of the inhalation phase in a pressure support ventilation system is disclosed, in which an expiratory trigger sensitivity, or ratio of inspiratory flow rate to peak inspiratory flow rate at which the inspiration phase is terminated, is varied in proportion to variations in a calculated respiratory time constant. The system includes sensors for monitoring pressure and flow of gas during each breath, and, based on the sensor outputs, calculates the respiratory time constant for one breath or a series of breaths. The expiratory trigger sensitivity is automatically increased with increasing patient respiratory time constant, providing a closed loop control of expiratory trigger sensitivity. The expiratory trigger sensitivity may also be varied in response to changes in supra-plateau pressure.

A respiratory muscle activity monitoring apparatus is provided with a pressure sensor for detecting pressure in an air passage connecting a lung ventilator and the airway system of a patient and a flow rate sensor for detecting flow rate in the air passage. An arithmetic constant detecting unit detects resistance Rrs and elastance Ers of the respiratory system including the airway and thorax beforehand by using detection signals from the pressure sensor and the flow rate sensor while the lung ventilator is supplying air to the patient whose spontaneous breathing is temporarily stopped. Using airway opening pressure Paw detected by the pressure sensor and flow rate dV/dt detected by the flow rate sensor, a developed pressure calculating unit calculates pressure Pmus developed by the respiratory muscles during mechanical ventilation as well as during spontaneous breathing from the expression: Pmus=-Paw+Rrs(dV/dt)+Ers .intg.(dV/dt)dt. An output unit displays and/or records the obtained Pmus together with waveform signal detected by the pressure sensor along a common time axis. Furthermore, by detecting a tidal volume VT from flow rate, work Wmus is calculated as follows: Wmus=-.intg.Paw(dV/dt)dt+.intg.Rrs(dV/dt).sup.2 dt+(1/2)Ers(VT).sup.2

A hydraulic assembly for a hydraulic disc brake system that includes a housing defining a cylinder, a piston received in and moveable within the cylinder, a first lever operatively associated with one of the piston or the cylinder, and a second lever operatively associated with the other of the piston or the cylinder. Moving the first lever pushes one of the piston or the cylinder in a first direction, and moving the second lever pulls the other of the cylinder or the piston in a second direction. In a preferred embodiment, the piston has a non-actuated position and a fully actuated position, and the piston is biased towards the non-actuated position, and wherein the cylinder has a non-actuated and a fully-actuated position, and the cylinder is biased towards the non-actuated position.
