发明名称 Reduced-pressure, liquid-collection canister with multi-orientation filter
摘要 A reduced pressure treatment system includes a liquid-collection canister for collecting liquid from a tissue site to which reduced pressure treatment is applied. The canister includes a first space configured to collect the liquid from the tissue site and a filter having a frame and a non-planar filter element. The filter defines a second space within the canister separated from the first space by the filter element. The filter element substantially prevents liquid from passing from the first space into the second space. The filter element substantially allows gaseous communication between the first space and the second space when the second space is exposed to a reduced pressure.

主权项 1. A liquid-collection canister for collecting liquid from a tissue site to which reduced pressure treatment is applied, the canister comprising: a first space configured to collect the liquid from the tissue site; a second space configured to receive a reduced pressure; a frame of a filter positioned within the liquid-collection canister and being rectangular cube-shaped with a base, an upper wall, and four side walls extending between the base and the upper wall, the frame having an opening in at least two of the side walls allowing communication between the first space and the second space; and a plurality of liquid-air separators positioned on the frame between the first space and the second space such that at least one of the plurality of liquid-air separators covers each opening, wherein the liquid in the first space is substantially prevented from entering the second space, the plurality of liquid-air separators allowing transfer of a gas between the second space and the first space, at least two of the plurality of liquid-air separators being substantially planar and each of the two located within different planes, and wherein a first plane associated with a first of the two liquid separators is parallel to a second plane associated with a second of the two liquid-air separators.
