    Abstract: Methods and systems to provide breathing air to underwater divers in response to the divers' respiration at pressures less than 25 psi above atmospheric pressure during inspiration while delivering no or minimal air during exhalation, by controlling the actions of a pump during the time course of breathing. Methods and systems that sense a diver's need for breathing air, determine inhalation demand or exhalation state, and control the operation of a pump which delivers breathing gas to the diver via a tube. An integrated system for the same which incorporates at least an energy source, pump, air tube, breathing aperture, sensor, and logic processor is disclosed.

    Abstract: The oxygen tank flotation device is a floating structure adapted for use in recreational water activities. The oxygen tank flotation device is adapted for use with respiratory equipment that is required for use during recreational water activities. The oxygen tank flotation device receives and stores respiratory equipment, such as an oxygen tank, in such a manner that the respiratory equipment will float when the oxygen tank flotation device is placed in a body of water. This arrangement allows the respiratory equipment to float near the user when the user is involved in recreational water activities. The oxygen tank flotation device comprises a vessel, a first float, and a second float.

    Abstract: An apparatus for preventing or minimizing decompression illness in a scuba diver, consisting of a first safety bar, at least one first cable attached to the first safety bar, and an oxygen delivery system. The first cable supports the first safety bar at a predetermined depth. The oxygen delivery system consists of an oxygen tank, an oxygen delivery line, a manifold attached to the oxygen delivery line, and a plurality of regulators attached to the manifold. When the oxygen delivery system will be used by only one scuba diver, the oxygen delivery line can be connected directly to a single regulator without the manifold. The first cable and oxygen tank are attached to a float, which is either secured to a boat or platform via a tether line or anchored to the sea floor. In an alternative embodiment, the first cable is attached directly to a boat or platform, and an oxygen supply is provided on the boat or platform. In another alternative embodiment, the apparatus further includes a second safety bar connected to the first safety bar by at least one second cable, which supports the second safety bar at a predetermined depth below the depth of the first safety bar. In yet another alternative embodiment, the apparatus further includes a plurality of safety bars connected in series to the second safety bar by a plurality of cables, which support the plurality of safety bars at predetermined depths below the depth of the second safety bar.

    Abstract: A muscle-powered diving equipment comprising a pump worn by the diver, which is operated by the diver's legs by means of a belt arrangement and foot loops attached thereto. When the diver's legs are extended, air is sucked in through a tube whose end is attached to a floating buoy. When the diver's legs are bent, the aspirated air is compressed by the pressure of the surrounding water and can be breathed in by the diver through a breathing tube. The exhaled air escapes through an expiration valve into the water.

    Abstract: A flotation device for diving, includes a u-shaped holster; a flotation piece, positioned inside the holster; and a connection harness, such that the connection harness can hold a tank with compressed breathing gas for diving, and a diver breathes underwater via a hose attached to the tank. The flotation device can further include adjustable straps, a carrying strap with a handle. The holster can further include an insertion aperture and at least one reinforcement strap. The flotation device can be a cylindrical elongated piece, including a pool noodle, and can be made from polyethylene foam. Also included is a flotation device for diving, including a u-shaped holster and a connection harness, such that a flotation piece can be positioned inside the holster.

    Abstract: A diver's station and umbilical cart neatly stores the umbilical cord and other various items used in hookah diving and has a frame made from various bars of aluminum stock. A set of wheels is pivotally attached to one end of the frame while a handle is attached to an opposing end. A seat is telescoping attached to the frame proximate the wheels. A first set of legs extends upwardly from the frame proximate the handle and has a first tray there atop, while a second set of legs extends upwardly from the frame between the first legs and the seat and has a second tray there atop. A telescoping post extends upwardly from the frame and passes through the second tray, the post having a T-brace there atop.
