Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pressurization technology, and in particular to a portable soft pressurization chamber with external circulation. Background Technology

[0002] Hyperbaric therapy is suitable for treating many diseases with ischemic hypoxia as their physiological basis, as well as decompression sickness, arterial embolism, and poisoning by harmful gases. The treatment process usually involves using a special hyperbaric chamber to create a high-pressure environment for the patient and providing pure oxygen and other respiratory gases under high pressure, allowing the patient to experience the process of pressurization, pressure stabilization, oxygen inhalation, and decompression.

[0003] Traditional hyperbaric chambers are mostly horizontal cylindrical structures welded from steel plates. They require complex sites and supporting facilities and are not mobile, failing to meet the needs of on-site patient treatment. While the flexible hyperbaric chambers commonly found on the market offer improved portability, their weight is still significant due to structural and material limitations. They typically require 3-4 people to move and unfold, and their large folded size makes them difficult to transport, further restricting their use. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention addresses the problems and shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a portable soft pressurization chamber with external circulation.

[0005] The present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems through the following technical solution:

The inner layer has an inner elongated hole and an inner zipper that closes the inner elongated hole. The outer layer has an outer elongated hole and an outer zipper that closes the outer elongated hole. Foldable side pockets are fixedly extended from both sides of the inner layer, and the openings of the side pockets form a middle elongated hole. A middle zipper that closes the middle elongated hole is fixed to the side pocket.

[0007] A rigid pressurization perforation seat is fixed to the soft capsule. The rigid pressurization perforation seat has a pressurization port and a pressurization interface fixedly connected to the pressurization port.
