  • Publication number: 20240058562
    Abstract: A taking up/receiving system (100) and a process for taking up/receiving of gas from a medical apparatus (1) are provided. The taking up/receiving system includes a feed line (6), a discharge line (8), a filter unit (4) with a filter and at least one buffer storage device. The feed line establishes a fluid connection between the medical apparatus and the filter unit. The discharge line establishes a fluid connection between the filter unit and a fluid taking up/receiving unit (7). The gas is discharged from the medical apparatus and is passed through the feed line to the filter unit and from there through the discharge line to the fluid taking up/receiving unit. The filter filters at least one gas component out of the gas that is passed through the filter unit. The one or more buffer storage device absorbs and again discharges gas from time to time.

  • Patent number: 6443885
    Abstract: A process for operating an incubator particularly suitable for a certain type of care (“kangaroo care”) is disclosed. The process is activated by device of an input element at a time t0. A measuring and control unit controls the heating device as a function of the temperature measured by the temperature sensor, of which there is at least one, in the interior space of the incubator such that the temperature measured in the interior space of the incubator during a preceding time period t0-t1 is used as the set point for the temperature in the interior space of the incubator. The skin temperature of the patient, which is determined by the second temperature sensor is compared with preset upper and/or lower temperature limit values for the skin temperature and an alarm is triggered by the measuring and control unit when these limit values are overshoot and/or undershot.

  • Patent number: 6409653
    Abstract: A treatment unit with at least two heat sources and a lying surface (4) for a patient (2) is provided such that the ratio of the heat outputs of the heat sources in relation to one another can be set in a simple manner. A heater (5) with a first temperature control circuit (9) for setting a predetermined temperature on or in the environment of the patient (2) is provided along with a heater (3) at the lying surface (4). A second temperature control circuit (12) is provided for the lying surface heater (3). A logic circuit (15) is operatively connected between the first temperature control circuit (9) and the second temperature control circuit (12), which receives the temperature actual value or the temperature set point of the first control circuit (9) as a command variable and sends a tracking value as a lying surface temperature set point to the second temperature control circuit (12) via a temperature logic function (17).
