Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an oxygen supply device for supplying oxygen to an indoor space, and more specifically, to an oxygen supply device that supplies oxygen through a partition, configured so that oxygen from the oxygen supply device can be discharged through a partition dividing the indoor space, thereby enabling direct and effective oxygen supply to a user within the partition. Background Technology

[0002] Generally, the effects of oxygen deficiency on the human body have been well known through various papers and news reports.

[0003] For example, a lack of oxygen can cause serious impairment in brain function, leading to headaches, memory loss, senility, and cerebral softening, as well as a decline in liver function and slowed blood circulation.

[0004] In particular, when a person drinks alcohol, the alcohol breaks down into acetaldehyde, which is then further broken down into carbon dioxide and water; this process requires three molecules of oxygen. Therefore, the more alcohol a person drinks, the more oxygen is required, and the greater the oxygen deficiency becomes.

[0005] In addition, general drinkers often engage in excessive smoking along with drinking. Smoking increases the body's need for oxygen while hindering the smooth supply of oxygen through the lungs, so the combination of drinking and smoking causes an excessive oxygen deficiency in the body. Therefore, it is necessary to supply a larger amount of oxygen to drinkers, especially those who also smoke.

[0006] Recently, methods using oxygen generators to produce and supply oxygen indoors have also been employed. An oxygen generator is a mechanical device that separates air drawn in from the outside into oxygen and non-oxygen gases, and various types have been developed. Methods for generating oxygen from such generators include the Pressure Swing Adsorption method using adsorbents and the Gas Separation Membrane method utilizing differences in gas diffusion and permeation rates.

[0007] Furthermore, an oxygen supply device is a system for supplying oxygen generated from an oxygen generator to a desired location, and such an oxygen supply device includes an oxygen generator, an oxygen supply line for accurately and safely supplying oxygen generated from the oxygen generator to the desired location, an oxygen discharger for discharging oxygen into the room, and a controller for controlling the oxygen supply device.

[0008] Such an oxygen supply device can be installed in residential homes and office spaces of buildings, and aims to provide a comfortable environment by maintaining the oxygen concentration in the location at an optimal level.

[0009] Meanwhile, conventionally, when an oxygen supply device is installed in a large office space or study space, oxygen is supplied to users using oxygen dischargers installed on the ceiling or wall. However, in order to supply sufficient oxygen to many users utilizing a large area, a large number of oxygen dischargers are required, and considering the natural ventilation rate, it was difficult for users to secure a sufficient amount of oxygen.

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing a system of an oxygen supply device according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing a system of an oxygen supply device according to another embodiment of the present invention. Specific details for implementing the invention

[0035] The configuration and operation according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings.

[0036] This is intended to provide a detailed explanation sufficient for a person skilled in the art to easily implement the contents of the present invention, and does not imply that the technical concept and scope of the present invention are limited thereby.

[0037] In addition, when assigning reference numerals to the components of each drawing, it should be noted that they are indicated by the same numeral. Furthermore, terms specifically defined in consideration of the configuration and operation of the present invention may vary according to the intent or convention of the user or operator, and the definition of such terms should be determined based on the content throughout this specification.

[0038] First, an oxygen supply device that supplies oxygen through a partition according to one embodiment of the present invention can be broadly classified into an oxygen generator that generates oxygen, an oxygen supply line that is laid through the interior of the floor surface of an indoor space and connected to a system box installed on the floor surface of the indoor space, a partition that is erected on the floor surface of the indoor space to partition the indoor space and is equipped with an oxygen outlet port, and an auxiliary oxygen supply line that is connected to the system box at one end and to the oxygen outlet port at the other end. Each configuration will be examined in more detail below with reference to the exemplified drawings.

[0039] First, the oxygen generator (100) is,

[0040] When used in relatively small spaces such as houses, a Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) method may be used. For example, it may be configured to include an oxygen concentrator equipped with an adsorption tower made of a zeolite adsorbent and an air compressor that supplies compressed air to the oxygen concentrator. Concentrated oxygen can be generated by adsorbing a relatively dominant amount of nitrogen within the adsorption tower due to the difference in adsorption capacity from the compressed air supplied into the oxygen concentrator.

[0041] And the concentrated oxygen is supplied to where it is needed via the oxygen storage tank (110), and the nitrogen adsorbed in the adsorption tower can be separated from the adsorption tower when the air pressure applied to the adsorption tower is released and becomes atmospheric pressure.

[0042] In such an oxygen generator (100), air is compressed to a pressure between 2.5 and 3.5 atmospheres and supplied to an oxygen concentrator, and nitrogen adsorbed in the oxygen concentrator is desorbed and discharged under atmospheric pressure.

[0043] In addition, when applied to relatively large spaces such as office buildings, oxygen can be separated from atmospheric nitrogen using the Vacuum Swing Adsorption (VSA) method.

[0044] This allows oxygen to be concentrated as a relatively large amount of nitrogen is adsorbed onto the adsorption tower while passing through an oxygen concentrator under atmospheric pressure, and the nitrogen adsorbed onto the adsorption tower can then be desorbed and separated by maintaining a vacuum inside the oxygen concentrator.

[0045] Meanwhile, the oxygen generator (100) may include an air purification unit to remove foreign substances and odors from the air drawn into the interior as needed. For example, a HEPA filter, a fine dust removal filter, or both may be installed in the intake unit that introduces air into the interior of the oxygen generator (100), and the concentrated oxygen may be configured to pass through a separate ultrafine dust removal filter before being released into the room.

[0046] Additionally, the oxygen generator (100) may further include a dehumidification unit to remove moisture generated during the oxygen concentration process as needed, and may also further include a sterilization unit to irradiate the oxygen being moved into the room with ultraviolet rays of a wavelength of 250 to 280 nm so that the oxygen is moved into the room in a sterilized state.

[0047] In addition, a magnetization generator may be installed in the oxygen storage tank (110) where oxygen concentrated from the oxygen generator (100) is temporarily stored to convert the stored oxygen into highly reactive oxygen and move it into the room.

[0048] Here, the magnetization generating unit can magnetize oxygen by, for example, installing a permanent magnet with an N pole on the upper surface of the oxygen storage tank (110) and a permanent magnet with an S pole on the lower surface of the oxygen storage tank (110), so that the oxygen stored in the oxygen storage tank (110) is placed within the magnetic field range of the permanent magnets, and the magnetized oxygen can act as an ion compared to ordinary oxygen and can also be expected to have a deodorizing effect, thereby supplying fresher oxygen to the room.

[0049] The oxygen supply line (200) is,

[0050] The oxygen generated from the oxygen generator (100) is transferred to an oxygen outlet port (510) installed in the partition (500), and oxygen is supplied to the indoor space through a stand-type oxygen discharger (300) connected to the oxygen outlet port (510). The oxygen pipe (210) through which the oxygen is transferred and an LED wire (220) for supplying power necessary for the operation of the stand-type oxygen discharger (300) may be composed of an oxygen pipe (210) through which the oxygen is transferred and an LED wire (220).

[0051] When installed in an indoor space, this oxygen supply line (200) can be installed through the interior of the ceiling to minimize external exposure and connected to a ceiling-type oxygen discharger, or installed through the interior of the wall to be connected to a wall-type oxygen discharger.

[0052] However, in situations where it is difficult to install the oxygen supply line (200) through the ceiling or inside the wall, or in the case of a large office space or study space, the supply of oxygen may not be effective with a ceiling-type oxygen discharger.

[0053] Accordingly, the present invention is configured to supply oxygen using a partition (500) installed in an indoor space such as an office space or a study space, thereby enabling a user staying within the partition (500) to effectively receive oxygen.

[0054] That is, the oxygen supply line (200) according to the present invention is laid through the interior of the floor surface of an indoor space and is connected to a plurality of system boxes (700) called floor boxes or floor boxes installed on the floor surface.

[0055] Here, the system box (700) is composed of a space that is recessed to a predetermined depth from the bottom surface toward the interior and a cover that can open and close the space, and the cover is configured to be positioned on the bottom surface and exposed to the outside, so that the space can be checked from the outside by opening and closing the cover.

[0056] Accordingly, when one end of the oxygen supply line (200) connected to the oxygen generator (100) is connected to the other end of the system box (700) inside the floor surface, the end of the oxygen pipe (210) located on the other end of the oxygen supply line (200) and the end of the LED wire (220) are located inside the space of the system box (700), and the end of the oxygen pipe (210) can be sealed through a connecting valve to prevent oxygen leakage, and when the auxiliary oxygen pipe (610) of the auxiliary oxygen supply line (600) described later is connected to this connecting valve, the auxiliary oxygen pipe (610) and the oxygen pipe (210) communicate with each other, and oxygen can be moved from the oxygen pipe (610) to the auxiliary oxygen pipe (610).

[0057] Additionally, the end of the LED wire (220) can also be finished with a connector, and when the auxiliary LED wire (620) of the auxiliary oxygen supply line (600) described later is connected to this connector, the auxiliary LED wire (620) and the LED wire (220) can be electrically connected.

[0058] The system box (700) may be configured in multiple units spaced apart on the floor surface of the indoor space according to the area of ​​the indoor space, the number of partitions (500) installed, and the environment of the indoor space. In this case, the oxygen supply line (200) may be configured to be connected to all or selected parts of each system box (700) in a branched state corresponding to the number of system boxes (700).

[0059] Partition (500) is,

[0060] It can be made of panels of various sizes and shapes for purposes such as utilizing indoor spaces more efficiently, protecting privacy, or concealing unnecessary exposure or space.

[0061] The partition (500) according to the present invention may be provided with an oxygen outlet port (510) on one side, and a stand-type oxygen discharger (300) may be connected to and used with the oxygen outlet port (510). If necessary, a fixed-type oxygen discharger, such as a wall-mounted oxygen discharger, may also be directly attached to the surface of the partition (500) provided with the oxygen outlet port (510) for use.

[0062] In addition, while a stand-type oxygen discharger (300) or a fixed-type oxygen discharger is installed in the oxygen outlet port (510) of such a partition (500), a ceiling-type oxygen discharger may also be installed on the ceiling of the same indoor space, or a wall-type oxygen discharger may also be installed on the wall of the same indoor space.

[0063] Here, the oxygen outlet port (510) can be configured by modifying an existing communication outlet, and can be configured by installing a fitting valve, etc., that allows oxygen to move when connected to the insertion part where a cable or terminal is connected.

[0064] Preferably, the oxygen outlet port (510) may be configured to allow only the movement of oxygen when connected, or to allow the movement of oxygen and the conduction of electricity.

[0065] In the partition (500), multiple oxygen outlet ports (510) may be installed at various locations, and when not in use, the front surface of the oxygen outlet ports (510) exposed to the outside may be configured to be opened and closed by a sealing cover so as to maintain airtightness and prevent contamination.

[0066] The oxygen outlet port (510) of the partition (500) may be configured to be fixed so as not to protrude from one surface of the partition (500), but the oxygen outlet port (510) may be configured to protrude from one surface of the partition (500), or the oxygen outlet port (510) may be configured to be drawn out from the surface of the partition (500) to a certain length for use.

[0067] The auxiliary oxygen supply line (600) is,

[0068] This is a means for connecting the end of the oxygen supply line (200) located in the aforementioned system box (700) and the oxygen outlet port (510) provided in the aforementioned partition (500) to each other, so that oxygen can be supplied to the indoor space through a stand-type oxygen discharger (300) connected to the oxygen outlet port (510).

[0069] This auxiliary oxygen supply line (600) may be composed of an auxiliary oxygen pipe (610) and an auxiliary LED wire (620), and one end of the auxiliary oxygen pipe (610) and the auxiliary LED wire (620) may be connected to the oxygen pipe (210) and the LED wire (220) located in the system box (700), respectively, and the other end of the auxiliary oxygen pipe (610) and the auxiliary LED wire (620) may be connected to the oxygen outlet port (510) while being inserted into the interior of the partition (500) adjacent to the system box (700).

[0070] Here, the auxiliary oxygen pipe (610) may be sharply bent during the process of being connected to the system box (700) or to the oxygen outlet port (510) inside the partition (500), and the part of the auxiliary oxygen pipe (610) that is sharply bent in this way may be easily damaged by repeated bending, and if damage occurs, oxygen may leak through the damaged point.

[0071] Therefore, in order to solve these problems, if the entire auxiliary oxygen pipe (600) or a part of the bending section is configured in the form of a corrugated pipe, the auxiliary oxygen pipe (600) can be effectively laid within the partition (510) by utilizing the flexibility of the auxiliary oxygen pipe (610), and the phenomenon of damage to the bending section during the laying process can be prevented.

[0072] In addition, this corrugated pipe shape may also be applied to the oxygen pipe (210) constituting the oxygen supply line (200).

[0073] Additionally, a controller (400) for controlling the operation and control of the oxygen generator (100) may be installed on one side of the indoor space, and such a controller (400) may be connected to the control unit (130) of the oxygen generator (100) via a wired connection through a controller wire (230), and if necessary, the oxygen generator (100) may be controlled wirelessly through the controller (400) by placing a receiving module in the control unit (130) of the oxygen generator (100) and placing a transmitting module capable of communicating with such a receiving module in the controller (400).

[0074] Meanwhile, as another embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 3, the oxygen supply line (200) may not be laid along the interior of the floor surface of the indoor space, but may be laid outside the floor surface of the indoor space so that the oxygen supply line (200) is exposed to the indoor space, or may be finished with a finishing member to prevent exposure. In this case, the oxygen supply line (200) may be configured to be directly connected to the oxygen outlet port (510) of the partition (500) without using an auxiliary oxygen supply line (600).

[0075] In addition, as another embodiment, the oxygen supply line (200) may be installed so as not to be exposed along the interior of the ceiling or wall, and then, after being pulled out from one side of the ceiling or wall, configured to be directly connected to the oxygen outlet port (510) of the partition (500) without using the auxiliary oxygen supply line (600).

[0076] In this invention, an oxygen outlet port (510) is formed in a partition (500) installed in an indoor space, and as the oxygen outlet port (510) is connected to an oxygen generator (100) through an oxygen supply line (200) and an auxiliary oxygen supply line (600), a user located within the partition (500) can receive oxygen generated from the oxygen generator (100) more effectively by directly connecting a stand-type oxygen discharger (300) to the oxygen outlet port (510) provided in the partition (500).

[0077] In addition, even if the position of the partition (500) is changed, it can be reconnected using the auxiliary oxygen supply line (600) through the adjacent system box (700), so the efficiency of the oxygen supply device can be doubled.

[0078] As described above, the detailed description of the present invention has explained specific embodiments, but it is understood that various modifications are possible within the scope of the described content. Therefore, the scope of the described content does not need to be limited to the described embodiments, but should be defined by the claims set forth below as well as equivalents thereof.
