English Abstract


A handheld system for delivering flavoured oxygen for recreational use by
delivering a bolus of oxygen to the user each time the user puffs in on the
mouthpiece.
The system includes (1) the said mouthpiece, (2) a containment container for a
flavor
tablet,(3) a conserver to hold the oxygen until demanded, (4) an oxygen
concentrator,
(5) a rechargeable lithium battery, (6) a receptacle to accept a recharger
cord....as well
as containment valve (A) to contain the flavour until demand, containment
valve (B) to
allow flow from the consenter, containment valve (C) to contain the oxygen in
the the
concentrator until demand when the conserver is emptied.
Activation sensor (7) becomes active upon the opening of valve (B) and has the
oxygen
concentrator bring air in from the air intake and concentrate the oxygen,
When valve (C) opens (allowing the oxygen to flow into the conserver), the
deactivation
sensor (8) stops the concentrating process.The device now awaits the next puff
in.

ABSTRACT: A handheld system for delivering flavoured oxygen for recreational
use by
delivering a bolus of oxygen to the user each time the user puffs in on the
mouthpiece.
The system includes (1) the said mouthpiece, (2) a containment container for a
flavor
tablet,(3) a conserver to hold the oxygen until demanded, (4) an oxygen
concentrator,
(5) a rechargeable lithium battery, (6) a receptacle to accept a recharger
cord_ ..as well
as containment valve (A) to contain the flavour until demand, containment
valve (B) to
allow flow from the consenter, containment valve (C) to contain the oxygen in
the the
concentrator until demand when the conserver is emptied.
Activation sensor (7) becomes active upon the opening of valve (B) and has the
oxygen
concentrator bring air in from the air intake and concentrate the oxygen,
When valve (C) opens (allowing the oxygen to flow into the conserver), the
deactivation
sensor (8) stops the concentrating process.The device now awaits the next puff
in.
WHAT IS CLAIMED IS:
a system for delivering a recreational, flavoured breathing gas to the user,
comprising:
a gas source
a conserver between the gas source and the flavour container
a flavour container for a tablet ( spearmint, menthol or fruit)
a mouthpiece
FIELD OF THIS INVENTION
This invention relates generally to a person versed in the habit of vaping
and/or smoking
and as such relates to a system delivering a pleasing, healthy alternative.
The application of oxygen concentrators for therapeutic use is known and many
variants
of such devices exist. The portable class of oxygen concentrators is
acceptable in most
public venues. This invention requires little power in that the bolus of
oxygen drawn on
each occasion is quite small.This bolus, which is significantly less than the
total volume
of a typical inhalation, is entrained in the breath's air intake and mixes
with the air,
eventually reaching the lungs, esophagus,and respiratory cavities (nose and
mouth).
Approximately half of an inspiration enters the lungs, where the oxygen is
absorbed_
Elevated oxygen concentration in this volume results in greater transfer of
the gas to the
blood, which enhances the health of the user.
