Abstract:
A portable gas delivery system includes a mouthpiece, a gas delivery pack and a tubing assembly. The mouthpiece has an upper region and a lower region extending therefrom. The upper region includes a least one nose port. The lower region includes a mouth port. The gas delivery pack has a gas storage region, a gas compression region, or a combination thereof. The tubing assembly operably attached to the mouthpiece and the gas delivery pack for delivering gas from the gas delivery pack to the mouthpiece.
Abstract:
A portable gas delivery system includes a mouthpiece or nosepiece, a gas delivery pack and a medical cannula tubing assembly. The mouthpiece has an upper region and a lower region. The upper region includes at least one nose port. The lower region includes a mouth port. The nosepiece conceals the cannula and includes at least one nose port. The gas delivery pack has a gas storage region, a gas compression region, a gas filtration region or a combination thereof. The nosepiece, allows the cannula to provide a snug fit into the nostrils forming a medical airtight delivery of oxygen to the nose. The system is adapted for use with a wireless transceiver for use with a cellular telephone or a personal music system and connected headphones. A single-sided, hollow frame conceals the mouthpiece or nosepiece and tubing assembly while attaching to a hat, eyeglass frame or ear of a user.
Abstract:
A walking aid has been configured with static padding and air bags to protect the user in case of a fall. The air bags are generally not deployed. However, the walking aid has a tilt sensor which, when a fall is detected, triggers air bag ignitors. In one embodiment, the tilt sensor may comprise one or an array of sensors, and may further be coupled through microprocessor control to a dynamic active suspension that controls both the height of the walker and the height of individual legs such that the walker will land softly, while adjusting individual leg heights where necessary or appropriate to stabilize the user to reduce the chance of a fall. In addition to providing more extensive protection for the user, the walking aid has several additional options which increase the comfort and convenience it offers. Such options can include locking hinges, allowing the walking aid to fold up; rubber on the end of the legs where they contact the ground; wheels on the legs; brakes for the wheels; height adjustable legs; a water bottle holder; a basket; a removable or folding seat; a dashboard including various communications devices such as cellular telephones, emergency call buttons, locators, and the like; and audio-video devices.
