    Abstract: A ventilator system to aid human or animal respiration comprising: a cylinder orientated in a substantially vertical direction with a top end and a bottom end; a piston disposed within the cylinder and slidable up and down the cylinder to provide an upstroke and a downstroke respectively; a drive coupling configured to be connected to a drive mechanism to drive the upstroke of the piston by drawing the piston up the cylinder; a control system configured to release the piston at the top of the upstroke enabling the piston to move down the cylinder under its own weight for the downstroke such that during the downstroke of the piston air is forced out of the cylinder below the piston through an outlet coupling and into the patient's lungs, the control system being configured to re-engage the drive mechanism at the bottom of the downstroke to drive the upstroke of the piston and draw air into the cylinder below the piston from outside the cylinder, wherein the piston has a size and weight sufficient to drive the downstroke delivering air to the patient on the downstroke.
