Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of oxygen concentrator detection, in particular to a gas leakage detection device for a medical oxygen concentrator. Background Art
[0002] Leak detection devices for medical oxygen concentrators are essential tools for ensuring the safe and efficient operation of medical oxygen concentrators and related equipment. They are primarily used to monitor gas leaks within the concentrator, its connecting pipes, humidifiers, and other components. Promptly detecting and identifying leaks effectively prevents the waste of oxygen resources and potential safety hazards, ensuring patient oxygen safety and therapeutic efficacy. Leak detection devices typically detect leaks based on changes in gas flow rate, pressure, or concentration.
[0003] For example, the Chinese patent "Medical Oxygen Concentrator Leakage Self-Detection Device" with announcement number CN217237118U includes a detection device arranged on a compressor, two parallel molecular sieve towers, an atomization device and a user end. The detection device includes a conversion valve arranged at the air inlet of the two molecular sieve towers, the conversion valve is connected to the compressor through a first pipe, a first gas flow meter is provided on the first pipe, a second pipe is provided at the exhaust gas outlet of the conversion valve, a second gas flow valve is provided on the second pipe, the outlets of the two molecular sieve towers are connected to the same three-way valve through a pipe, the outlet of the three-way valve is connected to the atomization device through a third pipe, a third gas flow meter is provided on the third pipe, the conversion valve is a four-way conversion valve, the valve core of the four-way conversion valve is spherical, and two airways with a conversion angle of 90 degrees are provided in the valve core.
[0004] Although the above-mentioned existing technology can realize the leakage detection of medical oxygen concentrators, in actual use, on the one hand, the detection device is not flexible enough. Usually, a gas flow meter is set on each pipeline of the oxygen concentrator, which requires medical personnel to record the data on each gas flow meter and compare them when the oxygen concentrator is working, thereby reducing the user experience of the detection device. On the other hand, impurities in the air can easily interfere with the detection. Usually, the oxygen concentrator directly inhales air and performs leakage detection, causing impurities mixed in the air to enter the detection device, thereby affecting the accuracy of the detection data. Therefore, it does not meet the existing needs. In this regard, we propose a leakage detection device for medical oxygen concentrators. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide a gas leakage detection device for a medical oxygen concentrator, so as to solve the problems in the above-mentioned background technology that the detection device is not flexible enough to use and impurities in the air easily interfere with the detection.

[0007] Preferably, the first air inlet pipe, the first air outlet pipe, the second air inlet pipe and the second air outlet pipe are each provided with a filter pipe on one side of the inside of the box body, the other end of the filter pipe is connected to the connecting pipe, and flanges are fixedly provided at both ends of the filter pipe, and the filter pipe is fixedly connected to the first air inlet pipe, the first air outlet pipe, the second air inlet pipe, the second air outlet pipe and the connecting pipe through the flanges.
[0008] Preferably, three filter screens are fixedly arranged inside the filter tube, the filter screens are evenly distributed, and the mesh apertures of the filter screens close to the air inlet direction gradually decrease.
[0009] Preferably, support frames are fixedly provided on both sides of the outside of the connecting pipe, and the lower ends of the support frames are fixedly connected to the lower end of the box body.
[0010] Preferably, three air intake grilles are provided on both sides of the inside of the box cover, and the air intake grilles are of a through-type structure. Three heat dissipation grilles are provided on the upper part of the inside of the side walls on both sides of the box body, and the heat dissipation grilles are of a through-type structure. The inside of the air intake grilles and the heat dissipation grilles are both mesh structures.
[0011] Preferably, a protective cover is fixedly provided at the middle position of the upper end of the box cover, a motor is fixedly provided inside the protective cover, the output shaft of the motor extends to the bottom of the box cover, and fan blades are fixedly provided outside the output shaft of the motor located below the box cover.
[0012] Preferably, rubber pads are fixedly provided at the four corners of the lower end of the box, and display screens are fixedly provided on both sides of the front end of the box, and the two display screens are electrically connected to the two gas flow meters respectively.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0014] 1. The utility model can detect whether there is an air leak in the oxygen concentrator through a gas flow meter and a display screen. When the oxygen concentrator is in the air leak detection device, the second air inlet pipe is connected to the air inlet of the oxygen concentrator, and the second air outlet pipe is connected to the air inlet of the oxygen concentrator. At this time, the air enters the connecting pipe on one side after being filtered, and the air intake volume is measured by the sensor of the gas flow meter in the connecting pipe and the data is displayed on a display screen. When the oxygen concentrator discharges oxygen, the oxygen first passes through the connecting pipe on the other side, and the air outlet volume is measured by the sensor of the gas flow meter in the connecting pipe and the data is displayed on another display screen. At this time, the medical staff compares the displayed data. If the difference is too large, it indicates that there is an air leak in the oxygen concentrator.
[0015] 2. The utility model can filter the air through the filter tube and the filter screen. When the oxygen concentrator performs a gas leakage detection device, the second air inlet pipe is connected to the air inlet of the oxygen concentrator, and the second air outlet pipe is connected to the air inlet of the oxygen concentrator. When the oxygen concentrator is working, it will draw outside air into its interior. At this time, the air first enters the interior of the box through the first air inlet pipe, and then is filtered by the filter screen inside the filter tube. At the same time, the graded filter screens can improve the air filtering effect. The produced oxygen enters the interior of the box again through the second air outlet pipe for filtration until the oxygen is discharged from the interior of the box through the first air outlet pipe, thereby avoiding interference with the detection of the gas flow meter due to impurities in the air, and at the same time improving the oxygen quality of the oxygen concentrator.
[0016] 3. The utility model can accelerate the air circulation inside the box through the motor and fan blades. When the oxygen concentrator performs a leak detection device, the motor is turned on so that the output shaft of the motor drives the fan blades to rotate. At this time, the air near the fan blades forms a negative pressure and accelerates the outside air to enter the box. At the same time, the heat generated by the electronic components inside the box will be transferred to the airflow through thermal radiation. The airflow that enters the box and absorbs heat is then discharged from the inside of the box through the heat dissipation grille. At this time, the temperature inside the box drops, thereby avoiding affecting the working efficiency of the electronic components inside the box due to high temperature.
