Patent number: 10314692Abstract: A voice prosthesis for mounting in a fistula between trachea and esophagus is provided. The voice prosthesis comprises a tubular body having a lumen, a valve disc and a valve seat. The valve disc and a valve seat are arranged in the lumen of the tubular body, such that the valve disc and the valve seat control the connection through the lumen by interaction between the valve disc and the valve seat. A sealing rim is arranged between the valve disc and the valve seat, such that the interaction between the valve disc and the valve seat is obtained via the rim. A method for manufacturing a voice prosthesis is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2013Date of Patent: June 11, 2019Assignee: Atos Medical ABInventor: Jan-Ove Persson

Patent number: 9943657Abstract: A tracheostoma valve for attachment to a tracheostoma valve plaster may include a tubular base portion with a proximal opening through which inhaled and exhaled air enters and exits, respectively. A distal lid portion may be arranged distally of the tubular base portion. The distal lid portion may have a distal opening through which inhaled and exhaled air enters and exits, respectively. The tracheostoma valve may have a valve flap member for closing the distal opening via interaction between a front side of the valve flap member and an edge of the distal opening. A valve retaining arm may be included for interaction with the valve flap member to prevent the valve flap member from interacting with the distal opening.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2013Date of Patent: April 17, 2018Assignee: Atos Medical ABInventor: Jan-Ove Persson

Patent number: 9463298Abstract: The present invention concerns a plaster for attaching a trachestoma valve or the like in connection with a tracheostoma on a person's neck. The plaster comprises a socket and an annular flange, communicating with a central opening of the flange which is connected with a single-coated adhesive tape which extends radially beyond the edge of the flange. The connection includes a first annular joint at or inwardly of the outer periphery of the flange, and a second annular joint located between the outer periphery of the flange and the inner periphery of the flange spaced radially from the first annular joint. A protecting liner covers the adhesive on the tape.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2013Date of Patent: October 11, 2016Assignee: Atos Medical ABInventors: Jan-Ove Persson, Richard Falkenberg, Anders Fransson

Publication number: 20160256649Abstract: A breathing protector to be fitted in a tracheostoma is disclosed. The breathing protector comprises a housing with a distal part and a proximal part, a first opening at a distal end of the distal part, and a second opening at the proximal end of the breathing protector. A valve flap is arranged at the first opening to closingly engage with a valve seat circumferentially of the first opening. The valve flap and the valve seat create a main valve being in an open position during inhalation and in a closed position during normal vegetative exhalation through the breathing protector. A spring member spring biasing the distal part in relation to the proximal part is comprised in the breathing protector to create a relief valve, being in a closed position during normal vegetative exhalation and transiting into an open position when the pressure in the trachea and thus the breathing protector exceeds a threshold value corresponding to a discomforting high pressure in the trachea.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 6, 2014Publication date: September 8, 2016Inventors: Bill Hesselmar, Jan-Ove Persson

Patent number: 9427542Abstract: A breathing protector for a tracheostoma is provided. The breathing protector comprises an inlet and an outlet, such that an air flow in use will pass from the surroundings of the user through said inlet to said outlet, into trachea of said user. Further, it comprises a filter housing, said filter housing comprising an inner housing part, an outer housing part, and a filter body. The inner housing part, comprising the outlet, a tracheal tube fitting and a support structure extends longitudinally and distally from the tracheal tube fitting. A base plate is arranged in a proximal zone of the tracheal tube fitting, said base plate extending radially outwards from the tracheal tube fitting. The outer housing par, comprising the inlet, forms a cage enclosing the support structure. The filter body is arranged between the support structure and the outer housing part. An assembly tool and an assembly method thereof are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2013Date of Patent: August 30, 2016Assignee: Atos Medical ABInventor: Jan-Ove Persson
