Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of oxygen concentrators, and particularly relates to a portable oxygen concentrator. Background Art

[0002] With the development of science and technology, people's demands for their living standards are becoming increasingly higher, and various air purifiers and oxygen enrichment devices have gradually entered people's daily lives. Existing oxygen enrichment devices generally use physical pressure swing adsorption, using molecular sieves as the adsorption carrier. At room temperature, air is directly compressed and then rotated into the molecular sieve, separating nitrogen and oxygen through a process of pressurization and decompression.

[0003] At present, the oxygen concentrators sold on the market have longer molecular sieves (in order to increase the time of adsorption of nitrogen atoms), which makes the overall volume of the oxygen concentrator larger and inconvenient to carry out. If the length of the molecular sieve is shortened, the time of adsorption of nitrogen atoms by the molecular sieve will be reduced, resulting in the oxygen purity not meeting the standard.

[0004] In view of this, the inventors conducted in-depth research on the above-mentioned defects in the prior art, and thus came up with this case. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a portable oxygen concentrator, which greatly reduces the volume of the oxygen concentrator while ensuring the standard of oxygen purity, and is easy to carry.

[0006] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the technical solutions adopted by this utility model are as follows:

[0007] A portable oxygen concentrator includes a shell, an air compressor installed in the shell, two groups of molecular sieves, and a battery module. The air compressor is alternately connected to the two groups of molecular sieves. The molecular sieve has a sieve shell, and the sieve shell is formed with two transversely arranged and superimposed lumens. One side of the two lumens is formed with a connecting nozzle, the other side of one of the lumens is formed with an air inlet, and the other side of the one of the lumens is formed with an oxygen outlet; a connecting pipe is connected between the two connecting nozzles.

[0008] Furthermore, the two groups of molecular sieves are arranged in parallel on the same horizontal plane. Arranging the two groups of molecular sieves in parallel on the same plane can further save space.

[0009] Furthermore, the invention further comprises a handle slidably connected to the housing, the handle comprising a lifting portion and connecting portions located on both sides of the lifting portion, the connecting portions being in sliding contact with the housing, so that the entire oxygen concentrator can be easily carried and moved by the handle.

[0010] Furthermore, the housing is formed with a mounting recess for the handle. The mounting recess comprises a hidden cavity for concealing and accommodating the lifting portion, and sliding cavities located on either side of the hidden cavity. Limiting sliders are formed on either side of the connecting portion, and limiting sliding grooves are formed on either side of the sliding cavity to cooperate with the limiting sliders. The hidden cavity allows the handle to be concealed, making it easier to store or enhance the aesthetics of the oxygen concentrator when it is not in use or when it is moved.

[0011] Furthermore, a clearance groove is formed on the upper back side of the housing, and the clearance groove is communicated with the hidden cavity. The clearance groove is used to facilitate reaching a hand into the hidden cavity and lifting the handle.

[0012] Furthermore, a heat exhaust fan is installed in the housing, and heat dissipation holes are formed on the back of the housing. The heat exhaust fan can be used to discharge the heat generated by the air compressor through the heat dissipation holes.

[0013] After adopting the above structure, the portable oxygen concentrator involved in the utility model, compared with the prior art, forms two transversely arranged and mutually superimposed official cavities in the sieve shell of a molecular sieve, and the two official cavities are connected by a connecting pipe. In this way, while ensuring the adsorption time of nitrogen atoms, the space occupied by the molecular sieve is reduced, thereby greatly reducing the volume of the entire oxygen concentrator, making it easier to carry.
