Publication number: 20220016384Abstract: A water reservoir for an apparatus for humidifying a flow of breathable gas includes a reservoir body forming a cavity structured to hold a volume of liquid. The reservoir body comprises a conductive portion. The conductive portion comprises a thermally conductive material and is adapted to thermally engage with a heater plate to allow thermal transfer of heat to the liquid. The conductive portion includes a peripheral interfacing portion structured and arranged to connect the conductive portion to one or more walls of the reservoir body. The peripheral interfacing portion includes an intermediate portion and an end portion. The end portion is bent so as to be at least inclined with respect to the intermediate portion to reduce a risk of leakage caused by cracks within a critical area of a thickness of the one or more walls due to a presence of a sharp edge at the end portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2019Publication date: January 20, 2022Inventors: Hargopal VERMA, David MULCAHY, Michael James DENT
