发明名称 ADJUSTING A POSITION OF A HEATING WIRE WITHIN A BREATHING CIRCUIT
摘要 A wire adjuster for adjusting a position of an element within a limb of a breathing circuit is described. The wire adjuster includes an interior wall engaging portion configured for engaging a surrounding interior wall of said limb and an element receiving portion coupled with the interior wall engaging portion, wherein the element receiving portion is configured for releasably securing the element as the wire adjuster is movably engaging with the surrounding interior wall, such that the wire adjuster can be used to selectively locate an element within the limb of the breathing circuit.

主权项 1. A breathing circuit heating wire adjuster, comprising: a body; a flexible arm positioned at a first end of the body, the flexible arm configured to engage a surrounding wall of an interior flow passage of a breathing circuit limb, the flexible arm comprising: a bending component configured to bend inwards at a resistance region of the surrounding wall as the breathing circuit heating wire adjuster is pushed through the breathing circuit limb in a first direction, the bending component configured to movably engage with the surrounding wall; anda springing component configured to spring open at a release region of the surrounding wall, the springing component configured to engage the surrounding wall until a sufficient pushing force is applied to the breathing circuit heating wire adjuster in the first direction to activate the bending component; and a wire receiver coupled with the flexible arm and positioned at a second end of the body opposite the first end of the body, the wire receiver comprising: a first wire holding surface configured to hold an end portion of the heating wire; anda second wire holding surface configured to hold the end portion of the heating wire when there is sufficient tension on the heating wire, wherein when the end portion of the heating wire is held by the second wire holding surface, the end portion of the heating wire is not in contact with the first wire holding surface.
