[0017] like Figure 1The preferred implementation scheme of claim 1: the elbow comprises an air inlet end, an airway mixing end, and an exhaust end, the airway mixing end is used to connect the pipeline interface of the breathing mask, the exhaust end is arranged between the airway mixing end and the air inlet end, the exhaust end is provided with an exhaust hole, and a safety valve hole (12) and a safety valve plate (13) are arranged between the exhaust end and the airway mixing end. When the air inlet end takes in air, the air pressure blows the safety valve plate (13), and the safety valve plate (13) rotates to cover the safety valve hole (12), and at the same time, the exhaust hole will discharge a part of the gas, and when the patient exhales carbon dioxide, the carbon dioxide will be taken away in the part of the gas discharged from the exhaust hole. When the ventilator fails, the safety valve plate (13) automatically resets when there is no air pressure, that is, the safety valve hole (12) opens, and the patient enters the normal state of breathing. The carbon dioxide exhaled by the patient is discharged from the exhaust hole and the safety valve hole. Since the exhaust hole is too small, the safety valve hole is the most important exhaust and inhalation channel when the ventilator fails, referred to as the breathing channel; that is, after the ventilator fails, the safety valve hole restores the patient's respiratory system; the biggest feature of the present invention is that the safety valve hole is aligned with and closest to the patient's mouth and nose. The above background problems are perfectly solved: when the ventilator fails, since the safety valve hole is not aligned with the patient's mouth / nose, the exhaled carbon dioxide will be partially turned and discharged, and some will be turned back or the bend will be compressed and remain in the cavity of the breathing mask. The benefits of this invention are obvious: at least two obvious functions are provided at the same time. The exhaust hole (15) is designed in this breathing tube and a safety valve hole is provided. When the ventilator is used normally, the exhaust hole (15) can discharge carbon dioxide; when the ventilator fails, the carbon dioxide exhaled by the patient will be directly, quickly and in large quantities discharged to the outside world.
[0018] According to side tests, when the gas collides with the pipe of the ventilator outside the air inlet end (6), a loud noise will be generated. Therefore, according to claim 2, the optimal angle of the first acute angle (16) is less than 70 degrees. The exhaust axis of the exhaust hole is parallel to the axial direction of the air inlet end (6) or / and forms a first acute angle while forming a second acute angle (17) with the axial direction of the airway mixing end (7), and the optimal angle of the second acute angle (17) is greater than 20 degrees.
[0019] An exhaust cavity (11) is provided, and the exhaust cavity (11) and the main body of the curved pipe (1) are provided with a folding interlocking position (4). The exhaust cavity is provided with a first end (18) and a second end (19), and the space of the first end (18) is larger than the space of the second end (19). The curved pipe (1) is provided with a first exhaust channel (A1), and one end of the first exhaust channel (A1) is connected to the exhaust cavity (11), and the other end is connected to the mask body through the airway mixing end (7). The purpose is to separate the air intake channel (9) from the exhaust system, shorten the distance between the starting position of the exhaust system and the patient's mouth and nose, so that the carbon dioxide exhaled by the patient can be discharged near the mouth and nose.
[0020] The exhaust cavity and the main body of the elbow are provided with folding and interlocking positions, which is beneficial for the folding and sanitary cleaning of the exhaust cavity. The exhaust cavity is provided with noise reduction ribs (5) for the purpose of changing the direction of gas flow, so that the gas flows collide with each other in a limited space and consume energy, dispersing and balancing the gas, making the exhaust flow of each exhaust hole (15) close to each other, and reducing noise.
[0021] The airway through hole (K1) provided between the first exhaust duct and the airway inlet duct has a very significant effect. When the patient inhales, the airway inlet duct passes through the airway through hole (K1) and combines with the exhaust duct to become the intake air supplied to the patient for inhalation; when the patient exhales, a part of the airway inlet duct passes through the airway through hole (K1) and combines with the exhaust duct to become the inhalation duct.
[0022] The safety valve plate (13) and the safety valve hole (12) are respectively provided with two holes and are located on both sides close to the bend of the elbow. The purpose is to open holes on the left and right sides, which is conducive to reducing the number of exhaust ducts and better utilizing the Venturi principle. Due to the difference in external temperature and wind direction on both sides, the two holes may automatically become one for intake and one for exhaust.
