Spring Link Breathing Bag Plate System with Rotating Fastening Element
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing spring bridge-breathing bag plate systems in circulatory breathing apparatuses are complex and time-consuming to assemble and disassemble, especially for cleaning and disinfection, due to their design and limited space, leading to frequent component defects and difficulty in accessing the breathing bag for maintenance.
Innovation Solution
A spring bridge with a rotating or sliding fastening element that allows easy pivoting or sliding from a working position to an open position, enabling quick access to the breathing bag for maintenance, and a locking device to secure the breathing bag plate during operation, facilitating easy assembly and disassembly.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Stability of the object's composition
If the spring bridge is firmly non-detachably connected to the housing, then the structural stability and support function is improved, but the ease of access to the breathing bag for cleaning and maintenance deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The spring bridge is designed with a rotating fastening element that allows it to pivot between a working position (providing structural stability) and an open position (providing access to the breathing bag). This dynamic design resolves the contradiction by allowing the spring bridge to change its state based on operational needs.
2Ease of repair
If the spring bridge is designed for easy removal and installation, then the ease of maintenance is improved, but the structural stability and support function deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The rotating fastening element enables the spring bridge to be easily positioned into the working state for stable operation and easily rotated to the open state for maintenance, maintaining both ease of maintenance and structural stability through a single dynamic mechanism.
3Ease of operation
If the breathing bag plate is detachably attached to the breathing bag, then the ease of cleaning and disinfection is improved, but the reliability of the connection deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The breathing bag plate is designed as a separate, detachable component from the breathing bag, allowing easy separation for cleaning while maintaining a reliable connection during operation through the spring bridge mechanism that provides controlled attachment and detachment.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This design simplifies the assembly and disassembly of the breathing bag, reduces component damage, and enhances maintenance accessibility, allowing for quicker preparation and reuse of the respirator, especially in emergency situations.
Implementation Method 1
The spring force acting on the breathing bag plate and thus on the breathing bag surface creates a constant overpressure inside the gas-enclosure envelope
Implementation Method 2
The at least one fastening element is a rotating element and/or sliding element for rotating and/or sliding the spring bridge on and relative to the closed-circuit breathing apparatus
Implementation Method 3
The at least one fastening element is a rotating element and/or sliding element for rotating and/or sliding the spring bridge on and relative to the closed-circuit breathing apparatus
