Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of medical equipment, and specifically relates to a ventilator air duct assembly and a portable ventilator. Background Art

[0002] With the development of science and technology and the improvement of quality of life, the use of ventilators has been promoted, making them not only used in the treatment of critically ill patients and emergency resuscitation, but also widely used in the home. For example, users can wear ventilator equipment at night to improve breathing quality during sleep.

[0003] Traditional medical ventilators, due to their large size, inconvenient storage and carrying, and high price, often cannot meet the needs of users for home use. Therefore, small portable ventilators have appeared on the market.

[0004] Portable ventilators use turbine fans to produce compressed air and then deliver breathable air to users. During the compressed air production process, the high-speed rotation of the turbine fan blades will generate large vibration noise and aerodynamic noise. These noises will be transmitted outward through the fan and will seriously affect the sleep quality of the sleeper.

[0005] In addition, due to the size of the portable ventilator, the length of the internal air duct of the ventilator is relatively short, so the airflow in the duct is large and fast, which will produce a strong whistling sound. Therefore, during use, the vibration noise of the blades is mixed with the airflow noise. Users often use the ventilator at night, so users can clearly feel the interference of noise, which seriously affects the user's sleep quality and user experience. Summary of the invention

[0006] The present application provides a ventilator air duct assembly and a portable ventilator to solve the problem of loud noise and poor user experience when the portable ventilator is working.

[0011] The rectification area is further provided with baffle ribs, and the baffle ribs cooperate with the inner wall of the rectification area to form a silencer cavity, and the baffle ribs are provided with openings communicating with the silencer cavity.

[0012] The first ventilation hole group includes a plurality of first ventilation holes, and the axis of the air inlet is perpendicular to the axis of the first ventilation holes.

[0013] The second low-pressure chamber includes a second arc-shaped area and a third arc-shaped area. A separating rib assembly is also provided in the second low-pressure chamber to separate the second arc-shaped area and the third arc-shaped area. The first ventilation hole group is arranged in the second arc-shaped area, and the second ventilation hole group is arranged in the third arc-shaped area.

[0015] The dividing rib assembly includes a plurality of dividing ribs arranged at intervals, with a flow gap between two adjacent dividing ribs, one of the first ventilation hole group and the second ventilation hole group is arranged corresponding to the dividing rib, and the other of the two is arranged corresponding to the flow gap.

[0016] A first guide protrusion is provided at the first ventilation hole group, and the first guide protrusion has a first guide transition surface on the side facing the first ventilation hole group; and / or a second guide protrusion is provided at the second ventilation hole group, and the second guide protrusion has a second guide transition surface on the side facing the second ventilation hole group.

[0017] The first low-pressure chamber surrounds the outer circumference of a partial area of ​​the third low-pressure chamber.

[0018] The ventilator air duct assembly also includes a fan buffer seat and a filling block. The blower is fixed to the fan buffer seat. The outer periphery of the fan buffer seat is provided with drainage ribs. The filling block is arranged at the air inlet of the blower. The filling block is a structure made of elastic material and has multiple throttling holes.

[0019] The ventilator air duct assembly also includes a laminar flow tube and a laminar flow component connected to the laminar flow tube, the laminar flow component is connected to the air outlet of the high-pressure chamber, and a plurality of diversion ports are provided on the windward surface of the laminar flow component.

[0020] The present application also discloses a portable ventilator, comprising a base, a cover body, and a humidification tank assembly. The ventilator also includes the above-mentioned ventilator air duct assembly. The base and the cover body cooperate to form an installation cavity. The air duct assembly is arranged in the installation cavity. The outlet of the high-pressure cavity is connected to the humidification tank assembly.

[0021] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects achieved by this application are as follows:

[0022] 1. The present application divides the low-pressure chamber in the air duct body into a first low-pressure chamber, a second low-pressure chamber and a third low-pressure chamber which are connected in sequence through a first partition and a second partition. After the external airflow enters the air duct body from the air inlet, it flows through the first low-pressure chamber, the second low-pressure chamber and the third low-pressure chamber in sequence to enter the high-pressure chamber for pressurization and flows out, which greatly lengthens the air path length in the extremely limited space of the air duct body, and the setting of the first vent group and the second vent group achieves the effect of reducing noise and increasing the difficulty of sound wave transmission. When the airflow flows between the low-pressure chambers, there are multiple air intakes and exhausts, and the air path is tortuous, which lengthens the path of sound transmission, greatly increases the difficulty of sound transmission from the air duct body, and the sound will be significantly reduced or eliminated when making a large angle turn, which has a good noise reduction and silencing effect.

[0023] In addition, since the airflow turns multiple times in the air duct body and needs to pass through the first vent group and the second vent group when flowing between each low-pressure chamber, the vent group diverts the airflow, so that the airflow flows more dispersedly and evenly through each vent group, avoiding the whistling sound caused by the convergence of a large amount of air flow, and reducing the flow rate of the airflow to a certain extent, thereby further reducing the noise generated during the flow of the airflow.

[0024] 2. As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the first low-pressure chamber includes a rectifying area and a first arc-shaped area, and the first low-pressure chamber is provided with a first baffle rib separating the rectifying area and the first arc-shaped area. The air duct body is adapted to the shape of the turbo blower, and both are circular, so as to realize the miniaturized design of the air duct body. At the same time, the first low-pressure chamber has an arc-shaped area, so that the length of the first low-pressure chamber is extended within the limited volume of the air duct body, so that the airflow is buffered during the flow in the first low-pressure chamber, the noise generated by the flow of the airflow is reduced, and the airflow in the first low-pressure chamber is uniformly dispersed through the first vent group into the second low-pressure chamber, so as to realize diversion and noise reduction. In addition, there is a first baffle rib between the rectifying area and the first arc-shaped area, so as to form an airflow corner between the rectifying area and the first arc-shaped area. After entering the first low-pressure chamber, the airflow is blocked by the first baffle rib, and after making a large angle turn to bypass the first baffle rib, it enters the first arc-shaped area and flows along the extension direction of the first arc-shaped area. The tortuosity of the noise transmission path is further increased, the noise transmission path is lengthened, and at the same time the airflow turns at a larger angle, which can reduce the flow rate of the airflow and reduce the noise generated by the airflow.

[0025] 3. As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the second low-pressure chamber includes a second arc-shaped area and a third arc-shaped area. A dividing rib assembly is further provided in the second low-pressure chamber to separate the second arc-shaped area and the third arc-shaped area. The first vent group is arranged in the second arc-shaped area, and the second vent group is arranged in the third arc-shaped area. The dividing rib assembly divides the second low-pressure chamber into two arc-shaped areas, and the two groups of vent groups are respectively located in the two arc-shaped areas. While conforming to the overall shape and structure of the air duct assembly, the degree of tortuosity of the airflow flow path in the second low-pressure chamber is further increased, and the airflow entering the second low-pressure chamber is buffered again. After the airflow enters the second low-pressure chamber from the first vent group, it will not directly pass through the second vent group to enter the third low-pressure chamber, but will flow horizontally under the obstruction of the dividing rib assembly until it bypasses the dividing rib assembly before entering the third arc-shaped area. This further extends the length of the air duct and increases the difficulty of noise transmission.

[0026] 4. As a preferred embodiment of the present application, a first guide protrusion is provided at the first vent group, and a first guide transition surface is provided on the side of the first guide protrusion facing the first vent group; and / or a second guide protrusion is provided at the second vent group, and a second guide transition surface is provided on the side of the second guide protrusion facing the second vent group. The first guide transition surface and / or the second guide transition surface cooperate with the separation rib assembly to control and guide the flow direction of the airflow in a more detailed manner, while reducing the transmission of noise, increasing the stability of the internal airflow, reducing the fluctuation of the gas flow, and making the airflow flow more smoothly. At the same time, the guide transition surface can reduce the flow resistance, and can control the direction of the airflow, affecting the path of sound propagation, so that the sound propagates in a direction that is conducive to silencing, which helps to reduce noise.

[0027] 5. As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the ventilator air duct assembly also includes a fan buffer seat and a filling block, the blower is fixed to the fan buffer seat, the outer periphery of the fan buffer seat is provided with drainage ribs, the filling block is provided at the air inlet of the blower, the filling block is a structure made of elastic material, and the filling block is provided with a plurality of throttling holes. The fan buffer seat can reduce the vibration of the blowing element through the vibration transmission between solids, and transmit it to the internal components of the ventilator, while contributing to the shock absorption and noise reduction of the high-pressure chamber, and reducing the noise generated by vibration. In addition, reducing vibration also contributes to the stable flow of airflow, and improves the stability and accuracy of the ventilator sensor readings. At the same time, the drainage ribs on the periphery of the fan buffer seat can also guide the airflow, so that the airflow enters the interior of the blowing element along a preset path. A filling block is provided at the air inlet of the blower. On the one hand, the filling block can further absorb and buffer the vibration of the blower and reduce vibration noise. On the other hand, the filling block is provided with a throttle hole so that the airflow is diverted again before entering the blower, so that the airflow enters the blower evenly and dispersedly, avoiding the high-speed rotating blades of the blower colliding with the high-speed airflow with a large flow rate and producing noise.

[0065] like Figures 1 to 21 As shown, a ventilator air duct assembly includes an air duct body 1 and a blower 2, the air duct body 1 is provided with a low-pressure chamber and a high-pressure chamber 14, the air duct body 1 is also provided with an air inlet 118 connected to the low-pressure chamber and an air outlet connected to the high-pressure chamber 14, the air inlet of the blower 2 is connected to the low-pressure chamber, and the air outlet of the blower 2 is connected to the high-pressure chamber 14; the low-pressure chamber includes a first low-pressure chamber 11, a second low-pressure chamber 12 and a third low-pressure chamber 13 connected in sequence, the first low-pressure chamber 11 is connected to the air inlet 118, and the third low-pressure chamber 13 is connected to the air inlet of the blower 2; the air duct body 1 is provided with a first partition 15 for isolating the first low-pressure chamber 11 and the second low-pressure chamber 12, and a second partition 16 for isolating the second low-pressure chamber 12 and the third low-pressure chamber 13, the first partition 15 is provided with a first vent group 17, and the second partition 16 is provided with a second vent group 18.

[0066] The present application does not specifically limit the formation method of the first low-pressure chamber 11, the second low-pressure chamber 12, and the third low-pressure chamber 13. The air duct body 1 can be structurally designed to form the first low-pressure chamber 11, the second low-pressure chamber 12, and the third low-pressure chamber 13. Fig.21 As shown, a matching piece 81 of a certain shape is provided to cooperate with the air duct body 1 to enclose at least one of the first low-pressure chamber 11, the second low-pressure chamber 12 and the third low-pressure chamber 13, which is not specifically limited here.

[0067] It should be noted that the blower 2 is a turbine blower, which is roughly circular in shape, and the shape of the air duct main body 1 is adapted to the shape of the blower, and is also approximately circular in shape, thereby improving the adaptability of the assembly of the blower 2 and the air duct main body 1, as well as the compactness of the overall structure of the ventilator, which helps to achieve miniaturization.

[0068] Preferably, Figure 3 As shown, the first partition 15 is arranged horizontally to separate the low-pressure chamber into two layers, the first low-pressure chamber 11 and the third low-pressure chamber 13 are located in the upper layer, and the second low-pressure chamber 12 is located in the lower layer. The second partition 16 is located in the upper layer and arranged longitudinally to separate the first low-pressure chamber 11 and the third low-pressure chamber 13 in the upper layer from each other. Therefore, when the airflow flows in the low-pressure chamber, it first flows from the first low-pressure chamber 11 in the upper layer to the second low-pressure chamber 12 in the lower layer, and then flows from the second low-pressure chamber 12 in the lower layer to the third low-pressure chamber 13 in the upper layer.

[0069] Preferably, Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the first low-pressure chamber 11 surrounds a portion of the outer circumference of the third low-pressure chamber 13 .

[0070] The double-layer structure of the air duct greatly increases the flow path of the air flow in the low-pressure cavity without changing the volume of the original air duct main body 1, so that the air flow continuously shuttles up and down in the two layers of low-pressure cavity, which plays a role in dispersing the air flow and reducing the impact force of the air flow, thereby reducing the noise generated by the air flow. In addition, the tortuous path also extends the path for noise transmission, so that the noise is consumed in the process of transmission.

[0071] The present application divides the low-pressure chamber in the air duct body 1 into the first low-pressure chamber 11, the second low-pressure chamber 12 and the third low-pressure chamber 13 which are connected in sequence through the first partition 15 and the second partition 16. After the external airflow enters the air duct body 1 from the air inlet, it flows through the first low-pressure chamber 11, the second low-pressure chamber 12 and the third low-pressure chamber 13 in sequence to enter the high-pressure chamber 14 for pressurization and flows out, which greatly lengthens the air path length in the extremely limited space of the air duct body 1, and the setting of the first vent group 17 and the second vent group 18 achieves the effect of reducing noise and increasing the difficulty of sound wave transmission. When the airflow flows between the low-pressure chambers, there are multiple air intakes and exhausts, and the air path is tortuous, which lengthens the path of sound transmission, greatly increases the difficulty of sound transmission from the air duct body 1, and the sound will be significantly reduced or eliminated when making a large angle turn, which has a good noise reduction and silencing effect.

[0072] Since the airflow turns multiple times in the air duct body 1 and needs to pass through the first vent group 17 and the second vent group 18 when flowing between the low-pressure chambers, the vent groups divert the airflow, so that the airflow flows through the various vent groups more dispersedly and evenly, avoiding the whistling sound caused by the convergence of a large amount of airflow and reducing the flow rate of the airflow to a certain extent, thereby further reducing the noise generated during the flow of the airflow.

[0073] As a preferred implementation of the present application, Figure 4 As shown, the first low-pressure chamber 11 includes a rectifying area 111 and a first arc-shaped area 112 .

[0074] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, the width of the rectification area 111 is greater than the width of the first arc-shaped area 112, so that the airflow entering from the air inlet 118 can be briefly gathered and rectified in the rectification area 111, and the width of the rectification area 111 is relatively large, with a sufficiently large air intake area and smaller resistance. Under the condition that the performance of the blower 2 is the same, a higher flow rate can be provided, and at the same time, the air path resistance is lower. The blower 2 consumes less electric energy to provide the same flow rate and pressure, and the rotation speed is lower. At the same time, the rotation speed of the blower 2 will be relatively low, and the noise generated will be significantly reduced, which can achieve the effect of noise reduction.

[0075] Preferably, the first low-pressure chamber 11 is provided with a first baffle rib 113 separating the rectifying area 111 and the first arc-shaped area 112 .

[0076] Preferably, Figure 4 As shown, the first arc-shaped area 112 surrounds the outer circumference of the blower 2 .

[0077] The shapes of the air duct main body 1 and the blower 2 are adapted to each other and are both circular to achieve a miniaturized design of the air duct main body. At the same time, the first low-pressure chamber 11 has a first arc-shaped area 112, thereby extending the length of the first low-pressure chamber 11 within the limited volume of the air duct main body 1, so that the airflow is buffered during the flow in the first low-pressure chamber 11, reducing the noise generated by the airflow, and making the airflow in the first low-pressure chamber 11 evenly dispersed through the first vent group 17 into the second low-pressure chamber 12, thereby achieving diversion and noise reduction.

[0078] Furthermore, if Figure 5As shown, there is a first baffle rib 113 between the rectifying area 111 and the first arc-shaped area 112, so that an airflow corner is formed between the rectifying area 111 and the first arc-shaped area 112. After entering the first low-pressure chamber 11, the airflow is blocked by the first baffle rib 113, turns around the first baffle rib 113 at a large angle, enters the first arc-shaped area 112, and flows along the extension direction of the first arc-shaped area 112. The tortuosity of the noise transmission path is further increased, the noise transmission path is lengthened, and the airflow turns at a large angle, which can reduce the flow rate of the airflow and reduce the noise generated by the airflow.

[0079] Preferably, the turning angle of the airflow at the corner of the airflow is greater than 90°, so as to lengthen the path of noise transmission and greatly increase the difficulty of sound transmission out of the air duct, while not causing excessive impact on the flow efficiency of the airflow, thereby ensuring the air intake efficiency.

[0080] In one embodiment, if Figure 6 As shown, a second baffle rib 114 is further provided inside the rectifying area 111 .

[0081] like Figure 6 As shown, the second baffle rib 114 is located in the rectifying area 111, blocking the air inlet 118, so that the airflow entering from the air inlet 118 is blocked by the second baffle rib 114 and turns, the turning angle is about 90°, and then the airflow flows along the extension direction of the second baffle rib 114 until it bypasses the second baffle rib 114 from one side of the second baffle rib 114, completing a turn of about 180°, thereby further lengthening the flow path of the airflow and reducing the transmission of noise.

[0082] In another embodiment, if Figure 7 As shown, the rectifying area 111 is further provided with a retaining rib 115 , and the retaining rib 115 cooperates with the inner wall of the rectifying area 111 to form a silencer cavity 116 , and the retaining rib 115 is provided with an opening communicating with the silencer cavity 116 .

[0083] When the airflow flows in the rectification area 111, the sound generated will enter the silencer chamber 116 through the opening, and the noise entering the silencer chamber 116 will be greatly weakened or eliminated, which can help absorb the noise at the air inlet 118 and in the first low-pressure chamber 11, thereby achieving the effect of silencing and reducing noise.

[0084] Preferably, Figures 4 to 8 As shown, the first ventilation hole group 17 includes a plurality of first ventilation holes, and the axis of the air inlet 118 is perpendicular to the axis of the first ventilation holes.

[0085] Specifically, Figure 4As shown, the air inlet 118 is facing horizontally, and the first low-pressure chamber 11 also extends horizontally, so that the flow direction of the airflow in the first low-pressure chamber 11 is horizontal, but the first vent group 17 is facing vertically, connecting the first low-pressure chamber 11 with the second low-pressure chamber 12 in the lower layer. Therefore, the airflow in the first low-pressure chamber 11 will turn again when entering the second low-pressure chamber 12.

[0086] Preferably, Figure 3 As shown, the second vent group 18 includes a plurality of second vents, and the second vents are also oriented in the vertical direction. Therefore, when the airflow flows from the first low-pressure chamber 11 to the second low-pressure chamber 12, it needs to make a turn of about 90°, pass through the first vent upward, and make another turn of about 90° from the vertical direction in the second low-pressure chamber 12 to convert into lateral flow. Then, when the airflow flows from the second low-pressure chamber 12 to the third low-pressure chamber 13, it turns from the lateral direction to the vertical direction again and passes through the second vent upward.

[0087] Therefore, the airflow makes three turns of about 90 degrees or more than 90 degrees in the low-pressure chamber, and the noise also needs to go through three turns of about 90 degrees or more than 90 degrees to be transmitted, thereby greatly lengthening the transmission path of the sound and greatly increasing the difficulty of noise transmitting out of the air duct main body 1.

[0088] As a preference, Figure 8 As shown, the rectifying area 111 is also filled with a silencer 117, which can be made of sound-absorbing cotton or a material with certain sound-absorbing and sound-silencing properties. The silencer 117 is preferably a honeycomb structure, and the honeycomb holes are regular circles, squares, triangles, or other polygons, and the honeycomb holes have a certain tapered angle, which can help absorb noise. After the noise enters the honeycomb holes, it is not easy to be reflected or refracted and transmitted from the honeycomb holes.

[0089] As a preferred implementation of the present application, Fig. 9 , Fig.10 As shown, the second low-pressure chamber 12 includes a second arc-shaped area 121 and a third arc-shaped area 122. A separating rib assembly is also provided in the second low-pressure chamber 12 for separating the second arc-shaped area 121 and the third arc-shaped area 122. The first ventilation hole group 17 is arranged in the second arc-shaped area 121, and the second ventilation hole group 18 is arranged in the third arc-shaped area 122.

[0090] Preferably, Fig. 9 As shown, the multiple first vent holes of the first vent hole group 17 and the multiple second vent holes of the second vent hole group 18 are spaced apart along the extension direction of the second low-pressure chamber 12. The number of the first vent hole group 17 can be the same as that of the second vent hole group 18, or the number can be different.

[0091] The separation rib assembly separates the second low-pressure chamber 12 into two arc-shaped areas, and the two groups of vents are respectively located in the two arc-shaped areas. While conforming to the overall shape and structure of the air duct assembly, the degree of tortuosity of the airflow flow path in the second low-pressure chamber 12 is further increased, and the airflow entering the second low-pressure chamber 12 is buffered again. After the airflow enters the second low-pressure chamber 12 from the first vent group 17, it will not directly pass through the second vent group 18 to enter the third low-pressure chamber 13, but will flow horizontally under the obstruction of the separation rib assembly until it bypasses the separation rib assembly and can enter the third arc-shaped area 122. This further extends the length of the air duct and increases the difficulty of noise transmission.

[0092] Specifically, Figure 4 , Fig.10 , Fig.16 As shown, the first low-pressure chamber 11 includes a first arc-shaped area 112, the first arc-shaped area 112 is located on the upper side of the second arc-shaped area 121, and the third arc-shaped area 122 is located on the inner side of the second arc-shaped area 121; the third low-pressure area 13 is located on the upper side of the third arc-shaped area 122. The projection of the second low-pressure chamber 12 in the up and down directions covers the first low-pressure chamber 11 and the third low-pressure chamber 13, and the internal space of the air duct body 1 is reasonably utilized, so that the arrangement of the three low-pressure chambers is more compact.

[0093] In a preferred embodiment, Figures 10 to 15 As shown, the dividing rib assembly includes a plurality of dividing ribs 19 arranged at intervals, with a flow gap 191 between two adjacent dividing ribs 19, and one of the first vent group 17 and the second vent group 18 is arranged corresponding to the dividing rib 19, and the other is arranged corresponding to the flow gap 191.

[0094] After the airflow enters the second low-pressure chamber 12 from the first vent group 17, it will not directly enter the third low-pressure chamber 13 through the second vent group 18, but will flow horizontally under the obstruction of the separation rib 19 until it bypasses the separation rib 19 and enters the third arc-shaped area 122, thereby further extending the airflow path and the noise transmission path, and preventing the airflow in the second arc-shaped area 121 from directly entering the third arc-shaped area 122. This further extends the length of the air duct and increases the difficulty of noise transmission.

[0095] It should be noted that the second low-pressure chamber 12 of the present application extends along an arc shape, but the present application does not specifically limit the shape and extension direction of the separation rib 19, which can be one of the following embodiments:

[0096] Embodiment 1: In this embodiment, as Figure 10 to Figure 11 As shown, the separation ribs 19 are of a straight structure, and the separation ribs 19 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the second low-pressure chamber 12 .

[0097] Embodiment 2: In this embodiment, as Fig.12 As shown, the separation rib 19 is a curved structure, and the separation rib 19 is bent toward the third arc-shaped area 122 to form a guide arc surface protruding toward the second arc-shaped area 121. The airflow entering from the first low-pressure chamber 11 is blocked by the separation rib 19, and flows to both sides of the separation rib 19 under the guidance of the guide arc surface, and enters the third arc-shaped area 122 from the flow gap 191.

[0098] Embodiment 3: In this embodiment, as Fig.14 As shown, the separation rib 19 is a curved structure, and the separation rib 19 is bent toward the second arc-shaped area 121 to form a guide arc surface protruding toward the third arc-shaped area 122. The airflow entering from the first low-pressure chamber 11 is blocked by the separation rib 19, and the separation rib 19 forms a gathering effect on the airflow, which briefly converges the airflow, plays a rectifying effect, and improves the stability of the airflow.

[0099] Embodiment 4: In this embodiment, as Fig.15 As shown, the dividing rib 19 is curved in a wave shape. When the airflow enters the second arc-shaped area 122, the groove of the dividing rib 19 faces the first vent hole group 17, which converges the airflow. When the airflow in the groove is large, the airflow flows into the third arc-shaped area 122 through the protruding guide arc surface.

[0100] Furthermore, if Fig.15 , Fig.16 As shown, a first guide protrusion 171 is provided at the first vent group 17, and the first guide protrusion 171 has a first guide transition surface 172 on the side facing the first vent group 17; and / or, a second guide protrusion 181 is provided at the second vent group 18, and the second guide protrusion 181 has a second guide transition surface 182 on the side facing the second vent group 18.

[0101] The first guide transition surface 172 and / or the second guide transition surface 182 cooperate with the separation rib assembly to control and guide the flow direction of the airflow in a more detailed manner, thereby reducing the noise transmission and increasing the stability of the internal airflow, reducing the fluctuation during gas flow, and making the airflow flow smoother. At the same time, the guide transition surface can reduce the flow resistance and control the direction of the airflow, affecting the path of sound propagation, so that the sound propagates in a direction that is conducive to silencer, thereby helping to reduce noise.

[0102] Preferably, Fig.16 As shown, the first vent group 17 is provided with a first guide protrusion 171, and the second vent group 18 is provided with a second guide protrusion 181, so as to simultaneously guide the airflow passing through the first vent group 17 and the second vent group 18. Of course, the guide protrusion can also be provided in any one of the first vent group 17 and the second vent group 18, which is not specifically limited here.

[0103] In addition, if Fig.16 As shown, the first flow guiding protrusion 171 can be arranged in the first low-pressure chamber 11, or in the second low-pressure chamber 12, or both the first low-pressure chamber 11 and the second low-pressure chamber 12 are provided with the first flow guiding protrusion 171. Similarly, the second flow guiding protrusion 181 can be arranged in the second low-pressure chamber 12, or in the third low-pressure chamber 13, or both the second low-pressure chamber 12 and the third low-pressure chamber 13 are provided with the second flow guiding protrusion 181.

[0104] Preferably, Fig.15 As shown, the first guide protrusion 171 and the second guide protrusion 181 have a windward side 173 , and the first guide protrusion 171 and the second guide protrusion 181 can rotate to adjust the direction of the windward side 173 .

[0105] The flow guide transition surface can be Fig.16 The arc surface shown in the figure may also be an inclined surface or other irregular curved surface, which is not specifically limited here.

[0106] It should be noted that the present application does not specifically limit the shape and size of each first vent hole in the first vent hole group 17 and each second vent hole in the second vent hole group 18. For example, the shape of the first vent hole and the second vent hole can be Fig. 9 The circle, triangle, or other irregular polygon shown in Fig.11 As shown, the first ventilation hole and the second ventilation hole can extend laterally to be in the shape of an elongated strip.

[0107] Preferably, the sizes of the first vent holes of the first vent hole group 17 and the sizes of the second vent holes of the second vent hole group 18 are different. For example, taking the first vent hole group 17 as an example, the sizes of the first vent holes can be gradually reduced along the extension direction of the first low-pressure chamber 11, that is, the first vent hole closest to the air inlet 118 has the largest diameter, and the first vent hole farthest from the air inlet has the smallest diameter. Fig.13 As shown, the first ventilation holes with large diameters and the first ventilation holes with small diameters may be arranged at intervals.

[0108] Through the different number and size arrangement combinations of the first vent group 17 and the second vent group 18, different contours and cross-sectional shapes, the airflow is guided to flow through the first vent group 17 and the second vent group 18 from different angles, and the direction of the airflow is more finely controlled and guided, thereby increasing the stability of the airflow, reducing the fluctuation of the gas flow, making the airflow flow smoother and with less flow resistance. The direction of the airflow can be controlled, affecting the path of sound propagation, so that the sound is propagated in a direction that is conducive to silencing, which helps to reduce noise.

[0109] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, Fig.17 , Fig.21 As shown, the ventilator air duct assembly also includes a fan buffer seat 3 and a filling block 4. The blower 2 is fixed to the fan buffer seat 3. The outer periphery of the fan buffer seat 3 is provided with drainage ribs 31. The filling block 4 is arranged at the air inlet of the blower 2. The filling block 4 is a structure made of elastic material, and the filling block 4 is provided with a plurality of throttling holes 41.

[0110] The fan buffer seat 3 can reduce the vibration of the blower 2 through the vibration transmission between solids, and transmit it to the internal components of the ventilator. At the same time, it helps to reduce the shock and noise of the high-pressure chamber 14, and reduce the noise caused by vibration. In addition, reducing vibration also helps the stable flow of airflow and improves the stability and accuracy of the readings of the ventilator sensor. At the same time, the drainage ribs 31 on the periphery of the fan buffer seat 3 can also guide the airflow, so that the airflow enters the inside of the blower 2 along a preset path. A filling block 4 is provided at the air inlet of the blower 2. On the one hand, the filling block 4 can further absorb and buffer the vibration of the blower 2 and reduce vibration noise. On the other hand, the filling block 4 is provided with a throttle hole 41, so that the airflow is diverted again before entering the blower 2, so that the airflow enters the inside of the blower 2 evenly and dispersedly, avoiding the high-speed rotating blades of the blower 2 and the high-speed airflow with a large flow rate to collide and make noise.

[0111] Preferably, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Fig.17 , Fig.18 , Fig. 20 As shown, the ventilator air duct assembly also includes a laminar flow tube 6 and a laminar flow component 5 connected to the laminar flow tube 6. The laminar flow component 5 is connected to the air outlet of the high-pressure chamber 14, and a plurality of diversion ports are provided on the windward surface of the laminar flow component 5.

[0112] Specifically, the laminar flow tube 6 is made of a flexible material and is used to connect the air duct cover 82 and the laminar flow member 5; the air outlet of the laminar flow member 5 is provided with a humidification tank air inlet sealing ring, which is made of a flexible material and is used to connect the laminar flow member and the humidification tank assembly 9. The vibration of the blower 2 may be transmitted to the base assembly through the air duct cover 82 and the air duct body 1. The flexible laminar flow tube 6 and the humidification tank air inlet sealing ring can reduce the vibration of the air duct cover 82 through the vibration transmission between solids and transmit it to the laminar flow member 5, which is helpful for the shock absorption and noise reduction of the high-pressure chamber 14. At the same time, reducing the vibration also helps to stabilize the flow and improve the stability and accuracy of the sensor readings matched with the laminar flow member 5.

[0113] Preferably, the cross-sectional shape of the laminar flow element 5 is circular or approximately regular polygonal, and its cross-sectional area is preferably 100-300 mm 2The laminar flow component 5 has a straight section, and the length of the straight section is preferably greater than 20 mm, which helps to stabilize the flow and improve the stability and accuracy of the differential pressure value read by the laminar flow differential pressure detection port. At the same time, a straight section of a certain length (preferably greater than 30 mm) helps to stabilize the flow and reduce noise, especially to eliminate low-frequency noise below 5000 Hz.

[0114] Preferably, Fig.21 As shown, the air duct assembly also includes an air duct upper cover 82 and an air duct bottom cover 71. After the internal components of the air duct assembly are assembled, the upper and lower sides of the air duct main body 1 are closed by the air duct upper cover 82 and the air duct bottom cover 71, so that the air duct assembly becomes a whole, and can then be installed together to the ventilator body.

[0115] like Fig. 20 , Fig.21 As shown, the present application also discloses a portable ventilator, including a base 7, a cover body 8, and a humidification tank assembly 9. The ventilator also includes the above-mentioned ventilator air duct assembly. The base 7 and the cover body 8 cooperate to form an installation cavity. The air duct assembly is arranged in the installation cavity. The outlet of the high-pressure cavity 14 is connected to the humidification tank assembly 9.

[0116] The gas flow path of the ventilator of the present application is as follows: air enters the first low-pressure chamber 11 from the outside through the filter, and flows along the extension direction of the first low-pressure chamber 11. During the flow process, it will flow into the second low-pressure chamber 12 through the first vent group 17 provided on the first partition 15 between the first low-pressure chamber 11 and the second low-pressure chamber 12, flow in the second low-pressure chamber 12, and then flow into the third low-pressure chamber 13 through the second vent group 18 provided on the second partition 16 between the second low-pressure chamber 12 and the third low-pressure chamber 13. In the third low-pressure chamber 13, it flows upward along the side walls of the air duct main body 1 and the air duct upper cover 82 to enter the air inlet of the blower 2, and then flows out from the air outlet of the blower 2 to enter the high-pressure chamber 14, and then flows through the laminar flow tube 6 to enter the laminar flow component 5, and then the gas passes through the laminar flow component 5 and enters the humidification tank assembly 9, and then the humidified gas passes through the breathing circuit, and then to the user end for the user to breathe.
