Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a portable oxygen therapy system with a multi-tube bag structure for burn prognosis management and a method of operating the same. More specifically, it relates to a portable oxygen therapy system with a multi-tube bag structure for burn prognosis management and a method of operating the same, which can perform oxygen therapy on burns such as heat sensation and stinging caused during laser treatment by means of an easily movable portable high-pressure oxygen generator equipped with a linear tip, a planar tip, a tube, and a bag chamber. Background Technology

[0002] Acne, technically known as acne vulgaris, is a chronic inflammatory disease of the hair follicles that primarily appears during puberty. It frequently occurs on the face, neck, and chest, where sebaceous glands are concentrated. In other words, sebum secreted by the sebaceous glands emerges to the skin surface through the pores; while this sebum protects the skin and provides a moist glow, excessive secretion leads to acne.

[0003] In the case of acne treatment devices, conventional laser treatment is frequently performed, but patients complain of heat and stinging sensations during this process; for this reason, oxygen therapy is frequently administered. Acne is a representative reactive oxygen species-friendly disease, and many hospitals perform oxygen therapy in the form of oxygen treatment to reduce these reactive oxygen species.

[0004] Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is a treatment method that administers high concentrations of oxygen to patients at high pressures, utilizing 100% oxygen and a pressure of at least 1.4 atmospheres. Most oxygen transported through the blood is carried in the form of oxygen-hemoglobin binding; when oxygen is transported in this form, the oxygen concentration supplied varies between 60 and 120 mmHg due to the physiological characteristics of oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation—namely, hemoglobin buffering—while the oxygen concentration supplied to the tracheal tissues can be maintained at a constant level. At normal atmospheric pressure, plasma dissolved oxygen is only 0.3 mL per 100 mL of blood, whereas that from hemoglobin is 20 mL (20 vol%). If the pressure is raised to 3 atmospheres, the PaO2 reaches 2,200 mmHg, which increases the plasma dissolved oxygen content to 5.4 vol%, up to approximately 18 times the normal 0.3 vol%. Therefore, this elevated oxygen partial pressure can supply sufficient oxygen to continuously maintain basal metabolic functions even without hemoglobin, and serves as the principle of hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

[0005] Based on theoretical therapeutic mechanisms and several significant clinical studies, hyperbaric oxygen therapy is an effective treatment for various diseases, and it is most widely used in the treatment of skin diseases and in surgeries. This is because, due to the nature of oxygen as air, it comes into the easiest contact with the skin, which constitutes the outermost layer of the human body; therefore, there is a need to actively utilize hyperbaric oxygen therapy, particularly for diseases that are indicated for it. However, the current state of hyperbaric medicine is underdeveloped, and there is a need to explore comprehensive and diverse methods to address this issue. Prior art literature

[0029] Hereinafter, a mobile oxygen therapy system (10) with a multi-tube bag structure for burn prognosis management according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a mobile oxygen therapy system (10) with a multi-tube bag structure for burn prognosis management according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, the mobile oxygen therapy system (10) with a multi-tube bag structure for burn prognosis management according to an embodiment of the present invention may be configured to include an oxygen generation module (100), a housing (200), a control panel unit (300), and an oxygen therapy module (400). The oxygen therapy module (400) may be used as a term for an oxygen delivery module, and the oxygen therapy system (10) may be used as a term for an oxygen delivery system.

[0030] The oxygen generation module (100) is located inside the housing (200) and generates oxygen by drawing in external air and separating nitrogen. FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram of an oxygen generation module (100) according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 2, the oxygen generation module (100) according to an embodiment of the present invention may be configured to include a first intake valve (110), a compressor (120), a second intake valve (130), an oxygen generation unit (140), an exhaust valve (150), an oxygen tank (160), a regulator (170), a flow meter (180), and an oxygen discharge port (190). Each component of the oxygen generation module (100) is connected by piping.

[0031] The first intake valve (110) controls the inflow of external air into the oxygen generation module (100). When the oxygen generation module (100) is operated from the control panel (300), the first intake valve (110) opens the valve to allow external air to flow into the oxygen generation module (100). The first intake valve (110), the second intake valve (130), and the exhaust valve (150) of the present invention may use solenoid valves that can be remotely controlled by a solenoid.

[0032] The compressor (120) compresses the air introduced through the first intake valve (110). Since the present invention uses high-pressure oxygen of 1.5 to 2 bar, the introduced air is compressed to extract oxygen. The compressor (120) is equipped with an air filter that removes dust from the air, and proceeds with compression using clean air from which dust has been removed. The air filter may be located on the outer surface of the housing (200) so that it can be easily replaced. The compressor (120) of the present invention may be selected and used as one of the following: a piston-type air compressor in which air from the atmosphere is sucked in through an air filter to an inlet valve and delivered to a compression cylinder containing a piston, and as the motor rotates, a crankshaft connecting the motor shaft and the compression piston rotates to reciprocate the piston connected on the crankshaft up and down to compress the sucked air; a screw-type air compressor in which air from the atmosphere is sucked in through an air filter to an inlet valve and delivered to an air end containing two screws, and as the motor rotates, the screws inside the air end mesh with each other through a coupling connected between the motor shaft and the air end shaft to compress the sucked air; or a diaphragm-type air compressor in which a thin rubber plate is connected to the motor and reciprocates up and down to compress the air. Additionally, the compressor (120) is equipped with a moisture removal filter, and the air compressed by the compressor (120) passes through the moisture removal filter to remove moisture. The moisture removal filter may be located on the outer surface of the housing (200) to facilitate easy replacement.

[0033] The second intake valve (130) controls the movement of compressed air from the compressor (120). The second intake valve (130) is equipped with a solenoid valve, and its operation is controlled by the control panel (300). The second intake valve (130) allows the compressed air from the compressor (120) to move to the oxygen generator (140) or blocks it from moving.

[0034] The oxygen generation unit (140) separates nitrogen and oxygen by passing compressed air introduced through the second intake valve (130) through an adsorbent, and discharges the oxygen. The present invention separates oxygen and nitrogen from the air by a PSA process. The PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorbent) process is a method for separating and concentrating a specific component of gas by utilizing the fact that the adsorption amount and adsorption rate of a mixed gas component on a carbon molecular sieve (CMS) or zeolite differ at high and low pressures. That is, when compressed air is passed through an adsorption tower, gases with large differences in adsorption amount or fast adsorption rates are selectively adsorbed depending on the change in pressure, and the unadsorbed gas is concentrated and discharged at the outlet of the adsorption tower. As this adsorption process continues, the adsorbent becomes saturated with adsorbent material according to the direction of fluid flow. When it reaches the outlet of the adsorption tower, the adsorbent loses its separation function and undergoes a process of desorption and regeneration. The present invention may use a carbon molecular sieve (CMS) or zeolite as the adsorbent. A carbon molecular sieve is made from coconut shells and is a crystalline structure with numerous micropores of 4 Å (angerstrom). The CMS separates oxygen and nitrogen by utilizing the difference in size between oxygen and nitrogen molecular sieves. Since oxygen has a molecular diameter of 2.8 to 3.9 Å and nitrogen has a molecular diameter of 3.0 to 4.3 Å, the CMS allows oxygen to pass through while filtering out nitrogen molecules that are larger than oxygen molecules. Additionally, zeolites have the characteristic of adsorbing nitrogen faster than oxygen, so nitrogen is adsorbed and oxygen is released, allowing pure oxygen to be obtained. Fig. 3 is a conceptual diagram of an oxygen generation unit (140) according to an embodiment of the present invention.Referring to FIG. 3, the oxygen generating unit (140) is equipped with a first adsorption tower (141) filled with an adsorbent to filter out nitrogen and allow oxygen to pass through from compressed air introduced therein, a second adsorption tower (142) filled with an adsorbent to filter out nitrogen and allow oxygen to pass through from compressed air that has passed through the first adsorption tower (141), and a nitrogen outlet (143) for discharging nitrogen filtered from the first adsorption tower (141) and the second adsorption tower (142). Since the CMS or zeolite repeats the process of desorption and regeneration, it can be used semi-permanently.

[0035] The exhaust valve (150) controls the movement of high-pressure oxygen discharged from the oxygen generator (140). The exhaust valve (150) is equipped with a solenoid valve, and its operation is controlled by the control panel (300). The exhaust valve (150) allows the compressed oxygen filtered from the oxygen generator (140) to move to the oxygen tank (160) or blocks it from moving.

[0036] The oxygen tank (160) stores high-pressure oxygen that has been moved through the exhaust valve (150). The high-pressure oxygen produced by the oxygen generation module (100) is not used immediately for the treatment of the patient, but is stored in the oxygen tank (160) and then connected to the oxygen therapy module (400) to adjust the pressure and use. The oxygen tank (160) is made of a sturdy metal material so that the high-pressure oxygen can be safely stored.

[0037] The regulator (170) causes the high-pressure oxygen stored in the oxygen tank (160) to be discharged at a pressure regulated for oxygen therapy. The high-pressure oxygen stored in the oxygen tank (160) is at a pressure of about 3 bar, even though the pressure is reduced as it passes through the oxygen generator (140) and the air compressed by the compressor (120) is at a high pressure of about 5 bar. Since this high-pressure oxygen cannot be used immediately for patient treatment, the regulator (170) regulates the pressure by controlling the speed of the discharged high-pressure oxygen by adjusting the valve. Since the pressure used for oxygen therapy is 1.5 to 2 bar, the control panel (300) adjusts the regulator (170) to lower the pressure to a certain level so that it becomes the pressure used for treatment.

[0038] The flow meter (180) checks the flow rate of high-pressure oxygen discharged by the regulator (170). The flow meter (180) checks the flow rate of high-pressure oxygen discharged to the oxygen therapy module (400) and transmits the checked flow rate to the control panel (300). The control panel (300) can adjust the amount of oxygen produced by the oxygen generator (140) by comparing the amount of compressed oxygen stored in the oxygen tank (160) with the amount of high-pressure oxygen measured through the flow meter (180). For example, if the amount of compressed oxygen discharged through the flow meter (180) is large and the amount of compressed oxygen in the oxygen tank (160) decreases, the oxygen generator (140) is operated to produce oxygen and store it in the oxygen tank (160), and if the amount of compressed oxygen discharged through the flow meter (180) is not large, the oxygen generator (140) is stopped.

[0039] The oxygen outlet (190) allows high-pressure oxygen to be discharged so that high-pressure oxygen passing through the flow meter (180) can move to the oxygen therapy module (400). The oxygen outlet (190) is exposed to the outside of the housing (200) to facilitate connection with the oxygen therapy module (400).

[0040] The housing (200) has an oxygen generation module (100) located inside and a control panel (300) located on the top, and is equipped with wheels on the bottom to enable movement. The housing (200) is equipped with an oxygen generation module (100) inside, and an oxygen discharge port (190) protrudes outside the housing (200) to connect an oxygen therapy module (400). Additionally, the control panel (300) that controls the oxygen generation module (100) and the oxygen therapy module (400) is located on the top of the housing (200) so that the operating status of the oxygen generation module (100) and the oxygen therapy module (400) can be easily checked. The mobile oxygen therapy system (10) of the present invention is equipped with two or four wheels on the bottom of the housing (200) to enable movement. The user can move the mobile oxygen therapy system (10) by pushing the wheels. Additionally, the housing (200) is equipped with a brake that prevents the wheels from moving, so that during treatment, the wheels are fixed using the brake to prevent movement, and during movement, the brake is released to allow the wheels to move. Additionally, the housing (200) is equipped with a battery that supplies power to the oxygen generation module (100) and the control panel (300). Since the present invention is equipped with its own battery, it has the advantage of being able to move and perform oxygen therapy without external power and without being restricted by location.

[0041] The control panel unit (300) controls the oxygen generation module (100) and the oxygen therapy module (400). The control panel unit (300) is equipped with an input / output unit in which the status of the oxygen generation module (100) and the oxygen therapy module (400) is displayed and a user can change settings via a touch screen, and is equipped with a circuit unit capable of controlling the operation of the high-pressure oxygen generation module and the oxygen therapy module (400). The control panel unit (300) controls the concentration, flow rate, pressure, etc. of the oxygen produced by the oxygen generation module (100).

[0042] The oxygen therapy module (400) is connected to the oxygen generation module (100), and oxygen therapy can be performed using high-pressure oxygen generated from the oxygen generation module (100). Referring to FIG. 1, the oxygen therapy module (400) according to one embodiment of the present invention includes one or more of a linear tip unit (410), a face tip unit (420), a tube unit (430), and a bag chamber unit (440), and one or more of the linear tip unit (410), face tip unit (420), tube unit (430), and bag chamber unit (440) are selected and connected to the oxygen generation module (100) for use. That is, one of the linear tip unit (410), face tip unit (420), tube unit (430), and bag chamber unit (440) required for the treatment of a patient is selected, and a connecting hose connected to each unit is connected to the oxygen discharge port (190) of the oxygen generation module (100) for use. For example, a patient requiring treatment of the whole body uses the bag chamber unit (440) connected to the oxygen outlet (190), and a patient requiring treatment for acne burns on a relatively small area uses the linear tip unit (410) connected to the oxygen outlet (190).

[0043] The linear tip unit (410) can treat localized areas using high-pressure oxygen generated from the oxygen generation module (100). FIG. 4 shows a linear tip unit (410) according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 4, the linear tip unit (410) comprises a linear tip (411) and a first connecting hose (412) connected to the linear tip (411). The linear tip (411) has a bar shape and has a plurality of first holes (413) on its side for discharging high-pressure oxygen to the outside. The first connecting hose (412) is equipped with a connector, so that one end is connected to the linear tip (411) and the other end is connected to an oxygen outlet (190). The linear tip unit (410) can be used on areas with a relatively small surface area, such as for treating small burns caused by a laser during acne treatment. FIG. 5 is a configuration diagram of a linear tip unit according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5, the plurality of first holes (413) provided in the linear tip (411) have different hole sizes, and the size of the holes decreases as one moves from the middle position of the linear tip (411) to the end of the linear tip (411). The plurality of first holes (413) provided in the linear tip (411) are spaced apart at different distances, and it is preferable that the spacing between the holes widens as one moves from the middle position of the linear tip (411) to the end of the linear tip (411). Since a large amount of high-pressure oxygen is discharged from the middle of the linear tip (411) and oxygen therapy is performed centered on the middle of the linear tip (411), the diameter of the plurality of first holes (413) decreases as one moves from the middle of the linear tip (411) to the end of the linear tip (411), and if the spacing between the holes widens, more high-pressure oxygen is discharged from the middle of the linear tip (411). Since a large amount of high-pressure oxygen is discharged from the middle of the linear tip (411), it is recommended that the operator contact the middle of the linear tip (411) with the patient's treatment area during patient treatment.The linear tip unit (410) may be equipped with an optical distance sensor that measures the distance between the linear tip (411) and the treatment site, and an oxygen pressure controller that controls the pressure of oxygen discharged from the linear tip (411) according to the distance measured by the optical distance sensor. The oxygen pressure controller discharges oxygen when the distance measured by the optical distance sensor is within a certain distance range, and does not discharge oxygen when it is outside the certain distance range. The oxygen pressure controller includes a distance-linked controller, and the distance-linked controller can reduce the oxygen discharge pressure as the distance between the linear tip (411) and the treatment site becomes closer when the distance measured by the optical distance sensor is within a certain distance range. Therefore, when oxygen is discharged, the linear tip (411) discharges strong oxygen when the distance from the treatment site is far and discharges weak oxygen when the distance from the treatment site is close, thereby having the effect of exposing the treatment site to oxygen of the same pressure regardless of the distance.

[0044] The face-shaped tip unit (420) can treat a large area with high-pressure oxygen generated from the oxygen generation module (100). FIG. 6 shows the front view of the face-shaped tip unit (420) according to one embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 7 shows the rear view of the face-shaped tip unit (420) according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 8 shows the side view of the face-shaped tip unit (420) according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 5 to 7, the face-shaped tip unit (420) is equipped with a face-shaped tip (421) and a second connecting hose (422) connected to the face-shaped tip. The face-shaped tip (421) has a mask shape, and the inner surface of the face-shaped tip (421) is equipped with a plurality of second holes (423) for oxygen to be discharged to the outside. The second connecting hose (422) is equipped with a connector, so that one end is connected to the face-shaped tip (421) and the other end is connected to the oxygen discharge port (190). The face tip unit (420) can be used on a relatively large area, such as for treating facial burns caused by a laser during acne treatment. The face tip unit (420) is equipped with an optical distance measuring device on the inner side that measures the distance between the inner side of the face tip (421) and the face, and a distance-linked control device that controls whether high-pressure oxygen is discharged based on the distance data measured by the optical distance measuring device. The optical distance measuring device measures the distance between the inner side of the face tip (421) and the face using a laser, and the distance data measured by the optical distance measuring device is transmitted to the distance-linked control device. The distance-linked control device stores a set distance, and when the distance between the inner side of the face tip (421) and the face exceeds the set distance, it transmits a control signal to the control panel (300) to prevent high-pressure oxygen from being supplied to the face tip unit (420). For example, if the set distance is 20 cm and the distance between the inner surface of the face tip (421) and the face exceeds 20 cm, the distance linkage control device transmits a control signal to the control panel (300) so that high-pressure oxygen is not supplied.The present invention has the advantage of reducing the amount of high-pressure oxygen used by providing an optical distance measuring device and a distance linkage control device to remove the surface chip (421) from the face and prevent high-pressure oxygen from being discharged. The distance linkage control device and the control panel unit (300) are connected via wired or wireless communication.

[0045] The tube unit (430) can treat the treatment area by placing it into the tube (431) and injecting oxygen generated from the oxygen generation module (100) into the tube (431). FIG. 9 shows a tube unit (430) according to one embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 10 shows a state in which an arm is inserted into the tube unit (430) according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view of the tube unit according to one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 9 to FIG. 11, the tube unit (430) is provided with a flexible material tube (431) that is closed at one end and open at the other end, a tube fixing part (432) connected to the open other end of the tube (431), and a third connecting hose (433) connected to the tube fixing part (432), and on one side facing the inside of the tube (431), a plurality of third holes (431) are provided for discharging oxygen from inside the tube (431) into the inside of the tube (431). The third connecting hose (433) is equipped with a connector, so that one end is connected to the tube fixing part (432) and the other end is connected to the oxygen discharge port (190). The tube (431) is equipped with an inner tube (431a) and an outer tube (431b) surrounding the inner tube (431a). The inner tube (431a) is connected to the third connecting hose (433) to supply oxygen, and the outer tube (431b) is connected to an air connecting hose to supply air. Since the inner tube (431a) supplies high-pressure oxygen, it is made of a transparent plastic material that is thicker than the outer tube (431b), and there are multiple third holes (434) through which high-pressure oxygen is discharged, allowing high-pressure oxygen to be uniformly discharged into the space of the tube (431). The tube (431) of the present invention may use a disposable tube (431) that can be replaced for each patient during use. The tube (431) is fixed to a ring-shaped tube fixing part (432). The tube fixing part (432) is connected to a third connecting hose (433), and high-pressure oxygen is injected into the tube (431) through a plurality of third holes (434) of the inner tube (431a) connected to the tube fixing part.The tube fixing part (432) is equipped with an operating button, so that high-pressure oxygen can be cut off or introduced by operating the operating button. The present invention is a double-tube system equipped with an inner tube (431a) and an outer tube (431b), and has the advantage of being able to safely use high-pressure oxygen because high-pressure oxygen is supplied only from the inner tube (431a) and the inner tube (431a) is protected by the outer tube (431b).

[0046] The bag chamber unit (440) can treat by placing the entire body into the bag chamber (441) and injecting oxygen generated from the oxygen generation module (100) into the bag chamber (441). FIG. 12 shows a bag chamber unit according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 13 is a cross-sectional view of a bag chamber unit according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 12 and FIG. 13, the bag chamber unit (440) is provided with a bag chamber (441) made of a flexible material, a fourth connecting hose (442) connected to one side of the bag chamber (441), and a plurality of fourth holes (443) for discharging oxygen to the outside are provided on the inner surface of the bag chamber (441). The bag chamber (441) is provided with a bottom portion (441a), a side wall portion (441b) surrounding the outer edge of the bottom portion (441a), and a cover portion (441c) on the upper part of the side wall portion (441b). A plurality of fourth holes (443) are provided on the inner surface of the side wall portion (441b) to discharge oxygen, and a height-adjustable chair (444) is provided on the upper part of the bottom portion (441a). The side wall portion (441b) is provided with an inner side wall portion (441b-1) and an outer side wall portion (441b-2) surrounding the inner side wall portion (441b-1). The inner side wall portion (441b-1) is connected to a fourth connecting hose (442) to supply oxygen, and the outer side wall portion (441b-2) is connected to an air connecting hose to supply air. The patient can receive treatment while sitting on a chair (444) provided inside the bag chamber (441). Unlike a standard chamber, the bag chamber (441) allows treatment with the neck and head areas exposed. The cover (441c) is detachable so that the patient can enter the bag chamber (441) through the cover (441c), and the cover (441c) is reattached after the patient removes it and sits on the chair (444). In the bag chamber (441), multiple fourth holes (443) are not located on the bottom portion (441a), but are located only on the inner side wall portion (441b-1).Since the bottom portion (441a) may be subjected to pressure from a patient or a chair, and thus the flexible material may be damaged, the plurality of fourth holes (443) are located only in the inner side wall portion (441b-1). Since the bag chamber unit (440) of the present invention is a method of injecting air, when the air is released from the bag chamber (441), it shrinks to a small size, which has the advantage of being easy to move.

[0048] Hereinafter, a method of operation of a mobile oxygen therapy system (10) with a multi-tube bag structure for burn prognosis management according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 14 is a flowchart of a method of operation of a mobile oxygen therapy system (10) with a multi-tube bag structure for burn prognosis management according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 14, the method of operation of a mobile oxygen therapy system (10) with a multi-tube bag structure for burn prognosis management according to an embodiment of the present invention may be composed of the following four steps.

[0049] Step 1 (S10) is a step of selecting an oxygen therapy module (400) suitable for the patient's symptoms and connecting it to the oxygen generation module (100). The oxygen generation module (100) includes a linear tip unit (410), a faceted tip unit (420), a tube unit (430), and a bag chamber unit (440). An oxygen therapy module (400) suitable for the patient's symptoms is selected and connected to the oxygen generation module (100).

[0050] The second step (S20) is a step of operating the oxygen generation module (100) through the control panel unit (300). The oxygen generation module (100) is operated through the input / output unit of the control panel unit (300). Since the housing (200) is equipped with a battery that enables the portable oxygen therapy system (10) of the present invention to operate, a separate external power source is not required.

[0051] The third step (S30) is a step in which external air is inhaled and oxygen is generated by the oxygen generation module (100). FIG. 15 is a detailed step flowchart of the third step of the operation method of a portable oxygen therapy system (10) with a multi-tube bag structure for burn prognosis management according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 15, the third step (S30) consists of the following three steps.

[0052] Step 3-1 (S31) is a step of compressing the inhaled external air. As the first intake valve (110) opens, external air is inhaled, and the air passing through the air filter is compressed by the compressor (120). The air compressed by the compressor (120) passes through a moisture removal filter to remove moisture.

[0053] Step 3-2 (S32) is a step of separating oxygen and nitrogen by passing compressed air through an adsorption tower filled with an adsorbent to generate oxygen. As the second intake valve (130) opens, the compressed air passes through the first adsorption tower (141) and the second adsorption tower (142) filled with CMS or zeolite, adsorbing nitrogen and passing oxygen, thereby generating high-pressure oxygen with a concentration of 90±3%.

[0054] Step 3-3 (S32) is a step in which the high-pressure oxygen generated in Step 3-2 (S32) is stored in the oxygen tank (160). As the exhaust valve (150) opens, the high-pressure oxygen generated in the oxygen generator (140) moves to the oxygen tank (160) and is stored in the oxygen tank (160).

[0055] Step 4 (S40) is a step of supplying oxygen to the oxygen therapy module (400) by adjusting the regulator (170) through the control panel (300). Since the high-pressure oxygen stored in the oxygen tank (160) has a high pressure, the pressure is adjusted to 1.5 to 2 bar using the regulator (170) so that the high-pressure oxygen can be supplied to the oxygen therapy module (400) so that it can be used for oxygen therapy. High-pressure oxygen is discharged through the oxygen therapy module (400) to perform oxygen therapy on the patient. Since high-pressure oxygen is toxic, oxygen therapy is performed for 20 to 30 minutes, and then the supply of high-pressure oxygen is stopped for 5 to 10 minutes. In the present invention, the oxygen therapy time and the oxygen supply stoppage time are set by the control panel (300), so oxygen therapy can be performed safely.

[0057] The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments but can be manufactured in various different forms, and those skilled in the art will understand that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without changing the technical concept or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments described above should be understood as illustrative in all respects and not restrictive. Explanation of the symbols
