摘要:
A powered air purifying respirator (PAPR). The PAPR comprises an electric motor mechanically coupled to a blower, an oxygen sensor, an alarm device, and a controller coupled to the oxygen sensor and to the electric motor, wherein the controller controls the electric motor, wherein the controller determines if the oxygen concentration is deficient, and wherein the controller commands the alarm device to present an indication when the oxygen concentration is deficient.

摘要:
A probe assembly of a sensor is arranged in an airflow channel. A first probe of the assembly has an inlet. The inlet is at a first point in the airflow channel. A second probe of the assembly has an inlet. The inlet is in fluid communication with the airflow channel. The second probe inlet is closer to a surface defining a perimeter of the channel than is the first probe inlet.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for operating an powered, air-purifying respirator. The apparatus includes an air mask, an air pump, a hose connecting the mask to the air pump, a magnetic actuator disposed on a portion of the hose that engages a housing of the air pump and a controller that provides a predetermined air flow from the pump to the mask based upon a magnetic flux from the actuator.

A self-calibrating powered air purifying respirator (PAPR). The PAPR comprises an electric motor mechanically coupled to a blower; an air flow sensor, and a controller coupled to the air flow sensor and to the electric motor. The controller is configured to automatically execute a one-time self-calibration by driving the electric motor to a predefined operation point, receiving an indication from the air flow sensor, determining a reference parameter based on the indication from the air flow sensor, and storing the reference parameter, wherein after completion of the one-time self-calibration the controller controls the electric motor based on the stored reference parameter.
摘要:
A powered air purifying respirator (PAPR) that alerts when remaining battery time is below a predefined threshold. The powered air purifying respirator comprises an electric motor mechanically coupled to a blower, a battery coupled to the electric motor, an alarm device, and an electronic controller. The electronic controller determines a second battery time remaining value and actuates the alarm device when the second battery time remaining value is less than a predefined threshold, wherein the controller determines the second battery time remaining value based on indexing into a look-up table of values with a first battery time remaining value and a battery voltage.
