Abstract: A flow diverter which is well suited for use in the medical environment to direct an inflow of various fluids (such as air and oxygen among others) to one of two (or more separate outlets. The diverter has a minimal amount of components and relies on a minimal amount of seals to effectuate a full diversion of flow between two outlets. The flow diverter 10 includes outer housing 12, flow selector valve 14 and seal members 16. The seal members are positioned so that one of the seal members is positioned within a non-planar groove on the selector valve.

Abstract: A three-way diverter valve has a body with an input with a fitting for securing the input to the output of a flowmeter. The valve body also includes first and second outputs and a ball coupled to a control handle for rotating the ball valve to first or second positions. The ball has a passageway for supplying oxygen to either said first output or said second output. The control handle may include indicia identifying the active flow direction for the selected output.
