OXYGEN SUPPLY QUICK-CONNECT ADAPTER

摘要

Disclosed herein are embodiments of an oxygen quick-connect device, that includes a female coupling that has a first end and second end and a bore extending longitudinally through the first and second ends and further includes a biased plunger disposed within the bore of the female coupling and configured to reciprocate within, a seal member disposed on the plunger and configured to seal at a location on the bore of the female coupling, a catch device disposed at a second end of the female coupling body, and means for connecting the female coupling to an oxygen supply source. The device also includes a male insert that has a first end and a second end and a first bore extending longitudinally through the first and second ends and includes a biased plunger disposed within the first bore of the male insert and configured to reciprocate within, a first seal member disposed on the plunger and configured to seal at a location on the first bore of the male insert, a second seal member disposed on the male insert and configured to seal within the bore of the female coupling, and a barbed connection disposed at a second end of the male insert having a second bore extending there-through perpendicular to the first bore of the male insert, wherein the second bore has a diameter that enables the quick-connect device to provide a desired flow of oxygen.

1. An oxygen quick-connect device, comprising:
a female coupling having a first end and second end and a bore extending longitudinally through the first and second ends, the female coupling further comprising:
a biased plunger disposed within the bore of the female coupling and configured to reciprocate within;a seal member disposed on the plunger and configured to seal at a location on the bore of the female coupling;a catch device disposed at a second end of the female coupling body; andmeans for connecting the female coupling to an oxygen supply source; and a male insert having a first end and a second end and a first bore extending longitudinally through the first and second ends, the male insert further comprising:
a biased plunger disposed within the first bore of the male insert and configured to reciprocate within;a first seal member disposed on the plunger and configured to seal at a location on the first bore of the male insert;a second seal member disposed on the male insert and configured to seal within the bore of the female coupling; anda barbed connection disposed at a second end of the male insert having a second bore extending therethrough perpendicular to the first bore of the male insert, wherein the second bore has a diameter that enables the quick-connect device to provide a desired flow of oxygen;wherein the oxygen quick-connect device only permits oxygen to flow from the oxygen supply source through the female coupling when the male insert is inserted into the female coupling and the second seal member seals within the bore of the female coupling.
