The first element of human survival is oxygen. Without the support of oxygen, the citizenry will cease to exist. Therefore, oxygen is the basis for the survival of human beings on earth. So oxygen mask is very important for us, so what's the classification of an oxygen mask? Let's see together.

Here is the content list:

l Medical oxygen mask

l Civil Aviation oxygen mask

Medical oxygen mask

(1) Adjustable oxygen mask: Mainly composed of nose clip, mask, oxygen concentration regulator, rubber band, conical joint, conversion joint, atomization joint, etc.;

(2) Main performance and structure: The oxygen mask oxygen storage system is composed of a mask, an oxygen storage bag, a T-shaped tee, an oxygen delivery catheter, and a hard and fast component.

Uses: An oxygen mask is used for oxygen delivery in patients with dyspnea and hypoxia.

How to use: Oxygen is directly injected into the oxygen storage bag, the oxygen mask is placed on the patient's face, and therefore the mouth and nose are sealed. Use the fixing member to repair the mask to the patient's head for oxygen inhalation.

Civil Aviation oxygen mask

(1) Introduction

On passenger planes, oxygen masks are emergency life-saving devices that provide passengers with oxygen. After the aircraft has reached a specific altitude, the cabin should be pressurized. If the aircraft cabin loses pressure, it'll cause hypoxia, and passengers will become dizzy, unconscious, and even life-threatening within the absence of oxygen. within the case of cabin depressurization at different altitudes, the hypoxia time that folks can endure is different. the upper the flight altitude, the less time it takes. On a civil airliner, each seat is provided with a personal oxygen mask for emergency use, so there's no need to fight for it, to not damage the oxygen mask and delay its use.

(2) Construction principle

The oxygen mask is connected to the automatic coupler via a slender rubber oxygen supply tube and bayonet fitting. Oxygen flows continuously into the reservoir bag of the mask. The airbag first stores air, then when it expands, it can hold a specific amount of oxygen. When the passenger takes a deep breath to empty the air storage bag, the valve on the mask can allow oxygen to enter.

(3) The way to use

In the event of decompression in the aircraft cockpit, the oxygen mask will automatically be thrown from the roof. Above the passenger seat, there's the word emergency manual release of the oxygen mask, and there's a "push" mark. After being pushed open, the oxygen mask is automatically lowered in front of the passenger. On the discharging board, there are graphical and textual instructions on the way to use it. Passengers should follow the instructions correctly. To sum up, oxygen mask plays an important role in the adjuvant treatment of diseases and in protecting the safety of passengers.
