Traditional respiratory humidification devices usually use liquid water to humidify the gas, which will have the following pain points: First, there is the risk of choking and drowning.

[0004] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of the present disclosure provides a humidification structure, including: A main body, wherein the main body has a cavity, and the cavity has a first connection port and a second connection port; A separator, which is disposed in the cavity and divides the cavity into a plurality of sub-cavities; A humidifying member is arranged in the sub-cavity, and the partition is used to ensure that even if the positions of the spherical humidifying members change after the main body is tilted, the first connecting port and the second connecting port will not be connected without passing through the humidifying member.
[0005] For example, in the humidification structure provided by at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the partition has a plurality of first partition parts, and the plurality of first partition parts are arranged circumferentially; the humidification element is a humidification ball without flowing liquid water, and the plurality of the humidification balls are evenly distributed.
[0006] For example, in the humidification structure provided by at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the partition has a plurality of second partition parts, the plurality of second partition parts are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the cavity, and a connecting channel is formed between the second partition part and the inner wall of the cavity, and the connecting channel is used to connect two adjacent sub-cavities.
[0007] For example, at least one embodiment of the present disclosure provides a humidification structure, further comprising: A cushion member is provided at both ends of the separator. A water absorbing member is arranged on a side of the cushion member away from the partition member, and the position of the water absorbing member is configured to block and absorb water from the humidifying member and flow to the first connecting port or the second connecting port.
[0008] For example, in the humidification structure provided in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the main body further has an insertion tube portion, one end of the insertion tube portion is connected to the first connection port or the second connection port, and the other end is used to be connected to the cavity.
[0009] For example, in the humidification structure provided by at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the insert tube portion passes through the water absorbent member, the cushion member has a through hole, one end of the through hole is connected to the cavity and the other end is pressed by the water absorbent member, and a gap is provided between the outer wall of the insert tube portion and the cushion member, one end of the gap is connected to the insert tube portion and the other end is pressed by the water absorbent member.
[0010] For example, in the humidification structure provided by at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, both ends of the partition have insertion spaces, and both ends of the partition also have a plurality of support portions, and the support portions are located around the insertion spaces.
[0011] For example, the humidification structure provided by at least one embodiment of the present disclosure further includes a first plugging head and a second plugging head, and the first plugging head and the second plugging head are respectively arranged on the first connecting port and the second connecting port; the first plugging head and the second plugging head are an integral structure with the main body.
[0012] For example, in the humidification structure provided by at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, the connection between the first plugging head and the second plugging head and the main body has an annular groove for facilitating the unscrewing of the first plugging head and the second plugging head; the first plugging head and the second plugging head both have a hand-pinch portion.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present disclosure are: In the present disclosure, the main body of the humidification structure is connected to the gas source through the first connection port, and is connected to the patient's respiratory assistance humidification structure through the second connection port. When the humidification structure is tilted, for example, the angle changes when the bed is pushed, and due to the special design of the partition, the position of the spherical humidification component changes. However, no matter how it changes, the gas entering from the first connection port must pass through the humidification component for humidification treatment to reach the second connection port. First, it ensures that the gas can be fully humidified in various usage scenarios, including when the humidification structure is tilted or moved, thereby improving the stability and reliability of humidification. Second, it effectively avoids the problem of poor humidification effect caused by changes in the position of the humidification component, ensuring that the patient can always inhale gas with appropriate humidity.

[0018] In this document, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components.

[0021] In addition, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0022] like Figure 1~Figure 3 As shown, it shows a humidification structure in an embodiment of the present disclosure, including a main body 1, a partition 2 and a humidifying element 3. The main body 1 can be designed as a cylinder in the middle, with end caps at both ends, and a cavity 100 is provided inside. A first connection port 102 is provided at one end of the cavity 100, and a second connection port 103 is provided at the other end. The partition 2 can be a mesh structure that can be placed horizontally, and can be arranged in the middle of the cavity 100 to divide the cavity 100 into two upper and lower sub-cavities. Each sub-cavity is filled with a number of spherical humidifying elements 3, and the humidifying element 3 can humidify the gas.
[0023] When the gas enters the cavity 100 through the first connection port 102, the partition 2 ensures that the gas must pass through the humidifying element 3 to reach the second connection port 103. Since the humidifying elements 3 can be spherical and a certain number of them are evenly distributed in the cavity 100, the gas can fully contact the surface of the humidifying element 3 during the flow process, thereby achieving an efficient humidification effect. Even if the humidity and volume of the humidifying element 3 decrease due to long-term use, or the position of the humidifying element 3 changes due to tilting during use, the partition 2 can still ensure that the gas flow path always passes through the humidifying element 3, thereby avoiding the situation that the connection does not pass through the humidifying element that may occur in traditional humidification devices.
[0024] For example, after the moisture in the humidifier 3 decreases after being used for a period of time, the volume of the humidifier 3 is likely to decrease. After the humidification structure is tilted, a path that is not covered by the humidifier 3 may appear in the cavity 100, and the gas flow path cannot be guaranteed to pass through the humidifier 3. The addition of the partition 2 in this embodiment solves this problem well, and can ensure that the gas flow path always passes through the humidifier 3.
[0025] The design of this embodiment is based on the following core concepts: the cavity 100 is divided into multiple independent sub-cavities by the partition 2, and a humidifier 3 is configured in each sub-cavity, thereby improving the uniformity and stability of humidification; the humidifier 3 can be designed to be spherical, which not only increases the contact area with the gas, but also can roll freely when the main body is tilted, ensuring that the gas flow path always passes through the humidifier; by optimizing the structure of the partition 2 and the arrangement of the humidifier 3, the noise during the gas flow process can also be reduced to a certain extent.
[0026] The beneficial effects of this embodiment include: the design of the spherical humidifying element 3 avoids the risks of liquid splashing and choking in traditional humidification devices; the use of spherical humidifying elements 3 placed throughout can effectively prevent bacterial growth, and the humidifying structure can be designed as a disposable replacement part, which is replaced after each patient's use, reducing the risk of hospital infection; the optimized airflow path does not have the problem of high noise in water seal humidification in the prior art, providing patients with a quieter and more comfortable treatment environment; the spherical humidifying element 3 increases the contact area with the gas, improves the humidification efficiency, and ensures that the humidity of the inhaled gas is appropriate.
[0027] In actual medical scenarios in hospitals, for example, when a patient is being transported: the main body 1 of the humidification structure is connected to the gas source through the first connection port 102, and is connected to the patient's respiratory assistance humidification structure through the second connection port 103. When the humidification structure is tilted, for example, the angle changes when the bed is pushed, the position of the spherical humidification component 3 changes due to the special design of the partition 2. However, no matter how it changes, the gas entering from the first connection port 102 must pass through the humidification component 3 to reach the second connection port 103 for humidification.
[0028] The advantages of this design are: first, it ensures that the gas can be fully humidified in various usage scenarios, including when the humidification structure is tilted or moved, improving the stability and reliability of humidification. Second, it effectively avoids the problem of poor humidification effect caused by changes in the position of the humidification component, ensuring that the patient can always inhale gas with appropriate humidity.
[0029] For example, during the emergency transfer of a patient from one ward to another, effective gas humidification can continue to be provided even if the humidification structure is shaken and tilted.
[0030] In terms of technical effects, the stability of the humidification effect of the humidification structure under different use conditions is significantly enhanced. The gas enters from the first connection port 102. No matter how the position of the humidification structure changes, under the action of the partition 2, it must be humidified by the humidification member 3 in the sub-cavity 101 and then output from the second connection port 103. The humidification structure is optimized so that it can ensure a good humidification effect under various conditions, thereby improving the safety and effectiveness of the use of the medical humidification structure.
[0031] In some examples, the main body 1 can also adopt an elliptical design, and the first connection port 102 and the second connection port 103 are respectively provided at both ends of the cavity 100. The partition 2 can also be a vertically placed plate-like structure, dividing the cavity 100 into two left and right sub-cavities. When the gas enters the cavity 100 through the first connection port 102, the effect of the partition 2 is that the gas must pass through the humidifying component 3 to reach the second connection port 103. Since the partition 2 is a vertically placed plate-like structure, the gas will form a spiral airflow during the flow process, further increasing the contact time with the humidifying component 3, thereby improving the humidification effect. The elliptical main body design can adapt to different installation environments and optimize the airflow path; the vertical partition can guide the airflow to form a spiral flow, increasing the contact time with the humidifying component 3; the polymer material humidifying component has better water absorption and air permeability, further improving the humidification efficiency.
[0032] In some examples, the main body 1 can also adopt a square design, and the first connection port 102 and the second connection port 103 are respectively provided at both ends of the cavity 100. The partition 2 is a tilted plate-like structure, which divides the cavity 100 into two sub-cavities, front and rear. Each sub-cavity is filled with a number of spherical humidifiers 3. When the gas enters the cavity 100 through the first connection port 102, the effect of the partition 2 is that the gas must pass through the humidifier 3 to reach the second connection port 103. Since the partition 2 is a tilted plate-like structure, the gas will form turbulence during the flow process, further increasing the contact area with the humidifier 3, thereby improving the humidification effect. The square main body design can adapt to different installation environments and optimize the airflow path; the tilted partition can guide the airflow to form turbulence and increase the contact area with the humidifier 3; the ceramic material humidifier has better water absorption and air permeability, further improving the humidification efficiency.
[0033] like Figure 3~Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, the partition 2 can be designed as a plate-like structure with a plurality of circumferentially arranged first partition portions 201, which is placed vertically, and divides the cavity 100 into a plurality of circumferentially arranged sub-cavities 101. In practical applications in medical places, such as providing respiratory support for patients in a ward: the partition 2 in the humidification structure is composed of a plurality of circumferentially arranged first partition portions 201. These first partition portions 201 effectively divide the cavity 100 into a plurality of areas. The humidification element 3 uses humidification balls without flowing liquid water, and is evenly distributed in these separated areas.
[0034] During use, for example, when the patient adjusts his position or the humidification structure moves slightly: due to the circumferential arrangement structure of the first partition part 201 and the uniform distribution of the humidification balls, even if the humidification structure tilts or changes position to a certain extent, the humidification balls can maintain a relatively stable position in their respective areas. The gas entering from the first connection port 102 will inevitably fully contact the humidification balls when passing through each separated area, thereby achieving effective humidification.
[0035] The advantages of this design are: first, the circumferential arrangement structure of the first partition part 201 enhances the stability and uniformity of the partition, and improves the control effect of the position of the humidification ball. Second, the humidification ball without flowing liquid water avoids the risks of liquid leakage and flow, and the uniform distribution ensures the consistency of gas humidification. For example, when the patient turns over at night or the humidification structure is slightly bumped, the humidification structure can still stably provide the patient with gas with appropriate humidity.
[0036] In terms of technical effects, the humidification stability and uniformity of the humidification structure under different use conditions are significantly improved. The gas enters from the first connection port 102, contacts and humidifies with the evenly distributed humidification balls in the area separated by the first partition portion 201, and then is output from the second connection port 103. The internal layout and humidification method of the humidification structure are optimized, and the reliability and stability of the humidification effect are improved.
[0037] like Figure 5 As shown, in some examples, the partition 2 in the humidification structure is composed of a plurality of second partition parts 202 arranged in sequence along the length direction of the cavity 100. These second partition parts 202 divide the cavity 100 into a plurality of sub-cavities 101, and a connecting channel 104 is formed between the second partition part 202 and the inner wall of the cavity 100 for connecting two adjacent sub-cavities 101.
[0038] In actual use, for example, when the humidification structure operates normally: the gas enters the first sub-chamber 101 from the first connection port 102, and is fully in contact with the humidification component 3 therein for humidification. Part of the gas enters the adjacent sub-chamber 101 through the connecting channel 104, and is further in contact with the humidification component 3 in the sub-chamber 101, thereby achieving multiple humidification and improving the humidification effect.
[0039] The advantages of this design are: first, by sequentially arranging the second partition part 202 and the connecting channel 104, the flow path of the gas in the cavity 100 is extended, the number and time of contact between the gas and the humidifying element 3 are increased, and the humidification degree is further improved. Second, the setting of the connecting channel 104 makes the flow of gas between different sub-cavities 101 more uniform and controllable, ensuring the consistency of the humidification effect. For example, for patients with severe conditions and high requirements for gas humidification, this design can provide more sufficient and higher-quality humidified gas, which is helpful for the patient's recovery.
[0040] In terms of technical effects, the humidification degree and uniformity of the gas are significantly improved. The gas enters from the first connection port 102, flows through the multiple sub-cavities 101 in sequence, flows between the sub-cavities 101 through the connecting channel 104, contacts the humidifying element 3 for multiple times, and finally outputs from the second connection port 103. The gas flow and humidification process in the cavity 100 are optimized, and the performance and practicality of the humidification structure are enhanced.
[0041] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, in some examples, both ends of the partition 2 are provided with cushions 4. A water absorbing member 5 is provided on the side of the cushion 4 away from the partition 2.
[0042] When the humidification structure is in operation, for example, when the vehicle is bumped during driving or water seeps out of the humidification component 3, the humidification component 3 may seep out a small amount of water due to vibration, etc. At this time, the water absorbing component 5 plays a role in blocking and absorbing the water that may flow out, and preventing it from flowing to the first connection port 102 or the second connection port 103.
[0043] The advantages of this design are: first, the cushion 4 provides a stable support and installation position for the water absorbent 5, ensuring that the water absorbent 5 can function effectively. Second, the setting of the water absorbent 5 prevents water from flowing to the connection port, thereby reducing the risk of humidification structure failure and patient choking. For example, when the ambulance is driving fast or passing through a rugged road, even if water seeps out of the humidification part 3, it can be promptly processed by the water absorbent 5, ensuring the normal operation of the humidification structure and the safety of the patient.
[0044] In terms of technical effects, the problem of water leakage that may occur during the humidification process is effectively solved, and the stability and safety of the humidification structure are improved. When water leaks from the humidification component 3, it is first buffered by the cushion component 4, and then blocked and absorbed by the water absorbing component 5 to prevent the water from flowing to the connection port. The protective function of the humidification structure is improved, and its reliability in complex use environments is enhanced.
[0045] like Figure 2 As shown, in some examples, the main body 1 of the humidification structure is provided with a cannula 105. One end of the cannula 105 is connected to the first connection port 102 or the second connection port 103, and the other end is connected to the cavity 100. Through the cannula 105, gas can more smoothly enter the cavity 100 from the external gas source or the patient end, or be output from the cavity 100 to the outside. A clear and stable channel is provided for the inlet and outlet of gas, reducing the resistance and turbulence of gas flow.
[0046] In some examples, the humidification structure insert tube portion 105 passes through the water absorbent member 5. The cushion member 4 has a through hole 401, one end of the through hole 401 is connected to the cavity 100, and the other end is pressed by the water absorbent member 5. There is a gap 106 between the outer wall of the insert tube portion 105 and the cushion member 4, one end of the gap 106 is connected to the insert tube portion 105, and the other end is also pressed by the water absorbent member 5.
[0047] When the humidification structure is in operation, for example, when a patient uses the humidification structure for a long time: when water may flow out of the cavity 100, the water absorbent 5 first blocks the water from leaking out through the through hole 401. At the same time, the insertion tube 105 can stably transmit gas, and a gap 106 can be designed between the insertion tube 105 and the cushion 4, so that the flow path of the gas is turned back.
[0048] The advantages of this design are: first, it ensures that the water absorbing member 5 effectively blocks and absorbs the water that may leak. Second, the design of the through hole 401 and the gap 106 avoids the risk of water leakage while ensuring the gas return transmission. For example, if the patient needs to use the humidification structure continuously, even if a small amount of water seeps out, it can be effectively controlled by this structure to avoid adverse effects on the patient and the humidification structure.
[0049] like Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, both ends of the partition 2 have an insertion space 203, and both ends of the partition 2 also have a plurality of support portions 204, and the support portions 204 are located around the insertion space 203. Both ends of the partition 2 of the humidification structure are provided with an insertion space 203. At the same time, both ends of the partition 2 also have a plurality of support portions 204, and these support portions 204 are located around the insertion space 203. During assembly, for example, when installing the cushion 4 and the water absorbing member 5, the cushion 4 can be inserted into the insertion space 203, and stably supported and positioned by the support portions 204 around it.
[0050] During the operation of the humidification structure, for example, when a patient uses the humidification structure for a long time, the cooperation between the insertion space 203 and the support portion 204 can ensure that the position of the cushion 4 is stable and will not be displaced due to gas flow or external vibration, thereby ensuring that the water absorbent 5 effectively plays the role of absorbing water and preventing leakage.
[0051] The advantages of this design are: first, the insertion space 203 provides a clear position for the installation of the cushion 4, which is convenient for assembly operation. Second, the support portion 204 enhances the support and fixing effect of the cushion 4, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the entire structure. For example, in the case of frequent movement or adjustment of the position of the humidification structure, this structure can maintain the stability of the internal components and ensure the normal operation of the humidification structure.
[0052] In terms of technical effects, the convenience of component assembly and the stability of structural operation are significantly improved. The cushion 4 is inserted into the insertion space 203 at both ends of the partition 2 and fixed by the supporting parts 204 around it to ensure the stability of the structure. The internal component connection method of the humidification structure is optimized, and its stability and maintainability in use are enhanced.
[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, in some examples, the first plugging head 6 of the humidification structure is arranged on the first connection port 102, and the second plugging head 7 is arranged on the second connection port 103. When the humidification structure is not in use or in the process of transportation: the first plugging head 6 and the second plugging head 7 can effectively close the connection port to prevent dust, impurities, etc. from entering the cavity 100, thereby ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the humidification structure. Since the first plugging head 6 and the second plugging head 7 are an integrated structure with the main body 1, when in use: there is no need to install additional plugging components, which reduces the operation steps and improves the convenience of use. At the same time, the integrated structure enhances the stability and sealing of the connection and reduces the risk of leakage.
[0054] The advantages of this design are: first, it provides effective protection when the humidification structure is not in use, reducing the possibility of contamination and damage. Second, the integrated design simplifies operation, improves work efficiency, and reduces the risk of loss or damage caused by component separation. For example, when the humidification structure is stored in the humidification structure reserve room of the hospital, the plugging head can well protect the connection port; in emergency use, medical staff can quickly connect it to the corresponding pipeline without finding and installing additional plugging parts.
[0055] In terms of technical effects, the protection performance and ease of use of the humidification structure are significantly enhanced. When not in use, the first plugging head 6 and the second plugging head 7 seal the connection port; when in use, the external pipeline is directly connected without the need to handle the plugging head. The protection and use of the humidification structure are optimized, and its practicality and reliability in the medical environment are improved.
[0056] In some examples, an annular groove 8 is provided at the connection between the first plugging head 6 and the second plugging head 7 of the humidification structure and the main body 1. When the humidification structure needs to be used, the nurse can insert the finger into the annular groove 8 and easily apply force to unscrew the first plugging head 6 and the second plugging head 7. At the same time, the first plugging head 6 and the second plugging head 7 both have a hand-kneading portion 9. The nurse can also pinch the hand-kneading portion 9 with fingers to assist in unscrewing the plugging head.
[0057] The advantages of this design are: first, the annular groove 8 and the hand-kneading part 9 provide convenience for disassembling the plugging head, which is simple and quick to operate and saves the preparation time of medical staff. Second, it is easy to control the strength and angle of disassembly, reducing damage to components or deformation of the connection port caused by improper disassembly. For example, in an emergency situation, when it is necessary to quickly connect the humidification device to the patient, the annular groove 8 and the hand-kneading part 9 allow medical staff to quickly and accurately open the connection port and put it into use.
[0058] In terms of technical effects, the convenience and efficiency of disassembly of the plugging head are significantly improved. The annular groove 8 and the hand-kneading portion 9 provide a force point and convenience for unscrewing the first plugging head 6 and the second plugging head 7, so as to achieve rapid disassembly. The convenience of using the humidification structure is further optimized, so that it can be put into medical applications more quickly.
[0059] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, in some examples, the main body 1 of the humidification structure has an insert 107, and the annular groove 8 is located between the insert 107 and the hand-kneading portion 9. When the humidification structure needs to be connected to other equipment, the insert 107 is used for plugging. If the insert 107 has a plurality of annular anti-skid cones 108, the anti-skid cones can increase the friction during the plugging process, ensure the stability of the connection, and prevent accidental falling off during use. It can also be designed that the insert 107 has a connecting card slot 109, which can be matched with the card on the corresponding device to achieve fast and accurate connection and fixation. The main body 1 can be cylindrical or spherical, and the appropriate shape can be selected according to different usage scenarios and equipment layout requirements. For example, in an operating room, a cylindrical main body 1 may be easier to install on a specific equipment bracket; while in some treatment areas with limited space, a spherical main body 1 can adapt to the installation position more flexibly.
[0060] The advantages of this design are: first, the design of the plug 107 provides a variety of connection methods to meet different interface requirements. Second, the annular anti-slip cone 108 or the connection slot 109 enhances the reliability and stability of the connection. Third, the selectability of the shape of the main body 1 improves the applicability and flexibility of the device. For example, in emergency rescue, a humidification structure of a suitable shape can be quickly selected and installed to ensure that the patient receives effective respiratory support in a timely manner.
[0061] In terms of technical effects, the connection performance and application scope of the humidification structure are significantly improved. The plug-in connection is performed through the plug part 107, the annular anti-slip cone rib 108 or the connection slot 109 enhances the connection stability, and the shape of the main body 1 is adapted to different installation requirements. The connection and installation method of the humidification structure is optimized, making it more convenient, reliable and applicable in medical applications.
