  • Patent number: 10065011
    Abstract: A gas supply mask apparatus allows a mask wearer to inhale a gas such as oxygen gas such that air in a mask main body does not much mix in the gas approaching substantially lower ends and the vicinities of the nostrils of the mask wearer in the mask main body. In this gas supply mask apparatus, a gas introduction opening for introducing a gas such as oxygen gas and water vapor into the mask main body includes a first gas introduction opening capable of introducing the gas in, e.g., a bundle-like state into the mask main body, and a second gas introduction opening capable of introducing the second gas into the mask main body so as to surround, in a substantially ring-like state, the above-mentioned, first gas in a bundle-like state introduced into the mask main body from the first gas introduction opening.

  • Patent number: 10064775
    Abstract: An incubator is provided that prevents damage to the arm of an operator when an arm abuts against the upper end segment of a baby guard relatively hard while inserting the arm into an infant accommodation space. The walls of the baby guards around the infant accommodation space have bent segments that are sufficiently strong to serve as a guard structure on the periphery of the infant accommodation space. Each of the bent segments in the upper end segments of the walls includes an inclined segment and a substantially horizontal segment integrally connected to a distal end of the inclined segment. At least some of the walls can pivot between upward and downward positions, thereby closing or revealing cassette trays.

  • Patent number: 10058672
    Abstract: A gas supply mask apparatus has low possibility that a gas rising in a mask main body will flow out from the upper end and the surrounding vicinity of the mask main body and give discomfort to the eyes of a mask wearer. In this gas supply mask apparatus, an angle formed between a direction in which a gas introduction opening faces and a virtual vertical plane facing right frontways falls within the range of 30° to 60° (preferably, the range of 35° to 55°, and more preferably, the range of 40° to 50°) when the mask main body is viewed right sideways.
