Patent number: 9468780Abstract: An emergency oxygen supply system for use on aircraft in the event of a loss in cabin pressure is configured for delivering allotments of oxygen and timing the delivery such allotments to each passenger so as maximize the efficiency of the transfer of such oxygen into the passenger's bloodstream. The delivery of each allotment is selected so that the entire allotment is available for inhalation into the region of the lung most efficient at oxygen transfer while the volume of the allotment is selected to substantially coincide with the volume of such region of the lung.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2014Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: BE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, INC.Inventor: James C. Cannon

Patent number: 6866794Abstract: The oxygen generating compositions are formed from a metal powder as a fuel, strontium peroxide as a chlorine suppressant, a catalyst, a reaction rate modifier, and an oxygen source selected from the group consisting of alkali metal chlorates, alkali metal perchlorates, and mixtures thereof. The oxygen generating compositions can optionally also further comprise a transition metal oxide catalyst, and can optionally further include a binder as a pressing aid for forming an oxygen generating oxygen generating block or core. The oxygen generating compositions can be formed from zero to about 15% by weight of metal powder as a fuel, about 0.1%-20% by weight strontium peroxide, from zero to about 15% by weight of a transition metal oxide catalyst, from zero to about 5% of an optional binder, and the remainder of an oxygen source selected from the group consisting of alkali metal chlorates, alkali metal perchlorates, and mixtures thereof.Type: GrantFiled: November 15, 2000Date of Patent: March 15, 2005Assignee: BE Intellectual Property Inc.Inventors: Yunchang Zhang, James C.
