PNEUMATIC TRANSIENT HANDLER AND METHOD
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A pneumatic transient handler unit for connection to a breathing system to control pressure within the breathing system, comprising:
- at least one actuator element;
at least one container with an outlet channel; and
at least one pressure sensor;
wherein a motion of the actuator element compresses or decompresses the container depending on the pressure measured by the pressure sensor, andwherein the outlet channel of the container is connected to the breathing system, whereby the pneumatic transient handler unit compensates for undesired pressure variations in the breathing system.
