[0027] An embodiment of the present invention provides a gas circuit structure of a portable oxygen concentrator, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,include:

[0028] Oxygen storage tank 1, used for storing oxygen;

[0029] A valve body 2, wherein a first end of the valve body 2 is connected to the oxygen storage tank 1;

[0030] A solenoid valve 3, connected to the valve body 2, and used to control the opening and closing of the valve body 2;

[0031] An oxygen outlet nozzle 4, wherein a first end of the oxygen outlet nozzle 4 is connected to a second end of the valve body 2, and the second end of the oxygen outlet nozzle 4 is used to provide oxygen to a user;

[0032] A breathing sensor 5 is connected to the third end of the oxygen outlet nozzle 4. The breathing sensor 5 and the solenoid valve 3 are both electrically connected to the control system of the oxygen concentrator.

[0033] It should be noted that this embodiment improves the gas path structure of the existing portable oxygen concentrator, and places the detection sequence of the breathing sensor 5 at the outlet of the oxygen concentrator. The breathing sensor 5 is directly connected to the user's breathing channel, and can directly sense the user's breathing action, improve the sensitivity of the oxygen concentrator when in use, and can replace the foreign breathing sensor 5 with the domestic breathing sensor 5 to reduce the cost. Specifically, in this embodiment, the second end of the oxygen outlet nozzle 4 provides oxygen to the user, and can be connected to the user's breathing pipeline. When the user inhales, the breathing sensor 5 connected to the third end of the oxygen outlet nozzle 4 detects the user's inhalation action under the change of airflow, thereby sending a signal to the control system of the oxygen concentrator. The control system sends a signal to the solenoid valve 3, and the solenoid valve 3 controls the valve body 2 to open, and the oxygen in the oxygen storage tank 1 enters the oxygen outlet nozzle 4 through the valve body 2, and is delivered to the user through the oxygen outlet nozzle 4 for the user to inhale oxygen. When the user does not inhale oxygen, the breathing sensor 5 does not sense the change of airflow, and the control system sends a signal to the solenoid valve 3, and the solenoid valve 3 controls the valve body 2 to close to avoid oxygen leakage. It should be noted that this embodiment improves the gas path structure of the existing portable oxygen concentrator, and its control principle and signal acquisition principle are conventional means in the field, which will not be described in detail here. In this embodiment, the breathing sensor 5 is directly connected to the oxygen outlet 4, so that the breathing sensor 5 can quickly sense the airflow change, so the sensitivity requirement of the breathing sensor 5 is reduced, so that the expensive foreign breathing sensor 5 commonly used in the field can be replaced with a lower-cost domestic sensor, thereby improving the cost performance of the product.

[0034] Furthermore, an oxygen concentration sensor 6 is connected between the valve body 2 and the oxygen outlet nozzle 4, and the oxygen concentration sensor 6 is electrically connected to the control system of the oxygen concentrator. In this embodiment, an oxygen concentration sensor 6 is added to detect the oxygen concentration in the gas path structure in real time to ensure the normal oxygen inhalation of the user. If the oxygen concentration does not meet the preset standard, the oxygen concentration sensor 6 can send a relevant alarm signal to the control system to prompt the user.

[0035] Furthermore, a one-way valve 7 is connected between the oxygen concentration sensor 6 and the oxygen outlet nozzle 4. In this embodiment, a one-way valve 7 is further added to the gas path structure to ensure the one-way flow of oxygen and avoid reverse flow or leakage, so as to achieve a safe and effective oxygen production process.

[0036] Furthermore, the solenoid valve 3 is configured as a two-position two-way solenoid valve 3, and a silicone sealing ring is added at the connection between the valve body 2 and the solenoid valve 3. In this embodiment, the valve body 2 is a normally closed structure, and the solenoid valve 3 can be used to control the valve body 2 to open for oxygen delivery. At the same time, a silicone sealing ring is added between the solenoid valve 3 and the valve body 2, which can effectively improve the sealing between the structures and prevent oxygen leakage.

[0037] Furthermore, the oxygen storage tank 1 is connected to the valve body 2 via a first connecting pipe 81, the valve body 2 is connected to the oxygen concentration sensor 6 via a second connecting pipe 82, and the oxygen outlet 4 is connected to the breathing sensor 5 via a third connecting pipe 83. In this embodiment, each structure is connected via a connecting pipe to ensure the normal delivery of oxygen and avoid oxygen leakage. At the same time, each component can be arranged and installed according to the actual structure of the oxygen concentrator. Specifically, the first connecting pipe 81, the second connecting pipe 82 and the third connecting pipe 83 are all configured as hose structures, which facilitates the installation and layout of the connecting pipes.

[0038] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the patent scope of the utility model. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the utility model specification and drawings under the utility model concept, or directly / indirectly used in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the utility model.
