Abstract: A high efficiency gas concentrating apparatus includes an air compressor for supplying high pressure air, first and second adsorption towers that are disposed above the air compressor and communicating with the air compressor to adsorb nitrogen and concentrate oxygen as the high pressure air is alternately supplied thereto, first and second concentrating passages that are disposed above the respective first and second adsorption towers to discharge the concentrated oxygen, and a cleaning tank that is disposed between the first and second concentrating passages to receive a portion of the concentrated oxygen from one of the first and second adsorption towers, temporarily store the received concentrated oxygen therein, and alternately remove adsorbed nitrogen by supplying the temporarily concentrated oxygen to the other of the first and second adsorption towers.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and process for oxygen concentration that makes possible the production of highly purified concentrated oxygen by modifying the structure of the adsorption bed and with various valves coupled thereto, and which can increase purity of the oxygen produced and reduce mechanical energy and consumption of electricity of the air compressor.

Abstract: An oxygen generator including: a humidifier tank moves up and down according to a horizontal movement of an adjustment knob so that the humidifier tank can be readily detachable, and thus a user can securely and conveniently use the oxygen generator without any water leakage from the humidifier tank during an operation of the oxygen generator. Also, it is possible to reduce noise due to driving of a compressor, noise due to the nitrogen exhaustion, and noise due to driving of a fan portion when the oxygen generator operates, to display purity information about the discharged oxygen, sensed by an oxygen sensor, as a digitalized numerical value on a display portion so that a user may readily recognize a current oxygen purity, and to drive the compressor at a low power consumption based on a discharge flow rate of oxygen and thereby reduce the power consumption.

Abstract: A gas concentrating method and apparatus is provided in which equalization is accomplished below two sieve beds, to thereby save compression energy, to reduce exit noise, and to obtain a gas whose gas purity with respect to an amount of flow has been enhanced. The gas concentrating method makes two sieve beds communicate with each other at their bottoms when a pressure difference between a pressurized pressure and a decompressed pressure is maximized in the multi-bed type sieve beds which alternately operate between pressurization and decompression, to equalize an internal pressure in the sieve beds. The gas concentrating apparatus includes a compressor (50), sieve beds (60-1, 60-2), solenoid valves (40-1, 40-2), an orifice (90), check valves (90-1, 90-2), a storage tank (100), a pressure controller (70), a flow meter (80), a controller (110), and a muffler (20).

Abstract: A concentrating chamber in an oxygen concentrating apparatus is provided, in which a process for adsorbing nitrogen to concentrate oxygen is performed in a single case. The concentrating chamber in an oxygen concentrating apparatus includes: a casing having upper and lower openings; an adsorption unit for performing an oxygen concentration through a compressed air and counter-flowing the stored oxygen to perform a nitrogen rinsing in the casing; a check valve operating according to a predetermined pressure, for supplying the oxygen concentrated in the adsorption unit and rinsing the nitrogen adsorbed in the adsorption unit; and upper and lower manifolds for supplying the concentrated oxygen through the upper and lower ends of the casing, or supplying the compressed air and simultaneously exhausting the rinsed nitrogen, through the upper and lower ends of the casing. The concentrating chamber in an oxygen concentrating apparatus includes at least two casings.
