[0026] The exhalation pressure sensor 8 communicates with the exhalation circuit 5 through the exhalation calibration valve 9, and the exhalation calibration valve 9 is used to make the exhalation pressure sensor 8 communicate with the exhalation circuit 5 or the atmosphere.
[0027] In the present utility model, when the inhalation calibration valve 7 controls the inhalation pressure sensor 6 not to communicate with the atmosphere, the inhalation pressure sensor 6 can measure in real time the pressure of the air-oxygen mixture input from the inhalation circuit 4 to the patient end; when the inhalation calibration valve 7 controls the inhalation pressure sensor 6 to communicate with the atmosphere, the inhalation pressure sensor 6 communicates with the atmosphere and calibrates the pressure. Similarly, when the exhalation calibration valve 9 controls the exhalation pressure sensor 8 not to communicate with the atmosphere, the exhalation pressure sensor 8 can measure in real time the pressure of the exhaled gas input from the exhalation circuit 5 to the patient end; when the exhalation calibration valve 9 controls the exhalation pressure sensor 8 to communicate with the atmosphere, the exhalation pressure sensor 8 communicates with the atmosphere and calibrates the pressure.

[0028] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the air circuit 1 includes an air interface 11, an air check valve 12, and an air metering valve 13 that are connected in sequence.

[0029] The oxygen circuit 2 includes an oxygen interface 21, an oxygen check valve 22, and an oxygen metering valve 23 that are connected in sequence. One end of the oxygen metering valve 23 away from the oxygen check valve 22 communicates with the oxygen inlet of the mixing chamber 3. It can be understood that the oxygen metering valve 23 can control the oxygen flow rate input from the oxygen circuit 2 into the mixing chamber 3, and the oxygen check valve 22 can prevent the oxygen in the oxygen circuit 2 from flowing back.
[0030] In this embodiment, the design of the air metering valve 13 and the oxygen metering valve 23 ensures the air volume and oxygen volume input into the mixing chamber 3.
[0031] In one embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the air circuit 1 further includes an air pressure regulating valve 14, and the oxygen circuit 2 further includes an oxygen pressure regulating valve 24; the gas circuit system further includes an atomizer mixing valve 101 and an atomizer interface 102;

Understandably, the atomizer mixing valve 101 can control the air frequency input from the air circuit 1 to the atomizer interface 102, and can also control the oxygen frequency input from the oxygen circuit 2 to the atomizer interface 102. Thus, the atomizer interface 102 can intermittently input oxygen and / or air into the atomizer, so as to atomize the medicine in the atomizer and output it to the patient end.

The outlet of the safety valve 104 is connected to the atmosphere, and the safety valve 104 is used to control the on / off between the atmosphere and the suction circuit 4. It can be understood that when the air circuit 1 and / or the oxygen circuit 2 is blocked, the safety valve 104 will open, so that the suction circuit 4 is connected to the atmosphere, so that the patient can inhale the atmosphere through the suction circuit 4 and the safety valve 104, avoiding the accident of suffocation when the pipeline before the flow regulating valve 42 is blocked, and ensuring the safety of the gas path system.
