  • Publication number: 20230405254
    Abstract: A patient interface to deliver a flow of air at a positive pressure to ameliorate sleep disordered breathing includes a seal-forming structure forming at least a portion of a plenum chamber pressurizable to a therapeutic pressure and a vent and AAV arrangement. The vent and AAV arrangement is configured to regulate flow therethrough to (1) provide a vent flow path when pressure in the plenum chamber is above a predetermined magnitude and (2) provide a breathable flow path when pressure in the plenum chamber is below the predetermined magnitude or not delivered. The vent and AAV arrangement includes an AAV member including a flap portion structured and arranged to regulate flow through a port. The flap portion includes a plurality of vent holes therethrough.

  • Patent number: 10675430
    Abstract: Elbow assembly including a swivel component (6610) connected to a patient interface (6000) by a pair of spring arms (6650) and coupled to an elbow component (6620) by ball and socket joint and a hinge joint (6645) which allows pivoting about a single axis. Hinge joint prevents the elbow component from contacting the spring arms. Swivel component includes inner radial wall (6630) and outer radial wall (6632) defining radial channel (7633) leading to vent holes (6640) for gas washout, tracks or guide walls (7637) within the channel providing discrete flow paths to the vent holes, an inwardly extending lip or chevron (8631) redirects flow to reduce noise and/or minimize flow directly onto sensitive parts the face. Ball portion (6662) includes opposed recesses (6664) engaged with pivot pins (6645) on swivel component to form the hinge. Elbow component houses a pair of anti-asphyxia valves (6680).
