A certain amount of water is contained in the humidification tank 3. When oxygen passes through the humidification tank 3, it will contact with and absorb the water to achieve a humidification effect. An oxygen supply tube 4 is provided above the humidification tank 3. A first hollow insert 6 connected to the output end of the humidification tank 3 is fixedly provided at one end of the oxygen supply tube 4, and a second hollow insert 7 connected to the input end of the breathing mask is fixedly provided at the other end. In this way, the oxygen humidified by the humidification tank 3 can smoothly enter the breathing mask through the oxygen supply tube 4 to provide humidified oxygen to the patient;

[0037] The key point is that the respiratory tract humidifier is also provided with a heating component, which is arranged on the oxygen delivery tube 4. The main function of the heating component is to evenly heat the humidified oxygen in the oxygen delivery tube 4 to ensure that the oxygen maintains a certain temperature during the delivery process, and avoid the patient from feeling uncomfortable due to inhaling too cold oxygen. At the same time, the heating component also has the function of real-time monitoring the temperature of the humidified oxygen to ensure that the oxygen temperature is within a safe range. Specifically, the heating component includes a cable 5 wound and fixed on the outer wall of the oxygen delivery tube 4 and having a built-in heating wire. The built-in heating wire of the cable 5 extends to the inner wall of the oxygen delivery tube 4. The humidified oxygen in the oxygen delivery tube 4 is heated by the heating wire. On the inner wall of the second hollow insert 7, a temperature sensor 8 is provided for accurately monitoring the temperature of the humidified oxygen connected to the breathing mask to ensure that the temperature of the oxygen inhaled by the patient is appropriate.

[0038] For the convenience of power supply, a power interface 9 is provided on the outer wall of the first hollow insert 6, and the power interface 9 is electrically connected to the built-in power supply of the humidifier body 1 through a plug-in wire 10, so that the heating component and the temperature sensor 8 can be powered by the built-in power supply of the humidifier body 1, without the need for an external power supply, which is more convenient to use;

[0039] In order to facilitate the user to control the heating temperature, temperature control buttons 11 are provided on both sides of the temperature display screen of the humidifier body 1. The user can adjust the heating temperature of the heating component through the temperature control buttons 11 to make the temperature of the humidified oxygen reach the optimal state.
