MASK AND FLOW GENERATOR SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A system for delivering a pressurized flow of breathable gas to a patient, the system comprising:
- a patient interface configured to contact a wearer'"'"'s head, the patient interface comprising a frame, a cushion supported by the frame and configured to sealingly connect the patient interface to the patient'"'"'s face and form a chamber between the frame and the wearer'"'"'s face, and an inlet port in the frame to receive the pressurized flow of breathable gas;
a flow generator configured to generate the pressurized flow, capable of creating a pressure of about 2-40 cm H2O in the chamber;
and a flow generator housing to house the flow generator, wherein the flow generator housing is mounted on the patient interface and configured to reduce the transmission of vibration and/or noise generated by the flow generator to the patient interface.
