PROXIMAL CONTROL VALVE

摘要

A proximal control valve system for regulating flow of oxygen includes an oxygen inlet attached to an oxygen outlet with an oxygen regulator being positioned therebetween. The oxygen inlet includes a spring plunger assembly that engages with one of a plurality of indents on the gas regulator to enable the flow of oxygen from the oxygen inlet through a desired thru hole in the oxygen regulator to the oxygen outlet. The oxygen regulator is configured to adjust a flow level of the oxygen to a desired level by rotating the oxygen regulator up to 360° about a central axis, allowing the oxygen to flow through the desired thru hole. The system works with a low pressure oxygen source and is positioned proximal to a user such that the user is not required to move to the oxygen source to adjust the flow level of the oxygen.

1. A proximal control valve system for regulating flow of gas from a gas source to a user, the system being positioned proximal to a user, the system comprising:
a gas inlet attached to a gas outlet with a gas regulator being positioned between the gas inlet and the gas outlet, the gas inlet being configured to transport gas from a gas source to the gas regulator, the gas inlet comprising a spring plunger assembly configured to engage with one of a plurality of indents on the gas regulator resulting in the gas to flow through a desired thru hole on the gas regulator, the gas regulator being configured to adjust a flow level of the gas to a desired level and to transport the gas from the gas inlet to the gas outlet, and wherein the system is configured to be positioned proximal to a user such that the user is not required to move to the gas source to adjust the flow level of the gas.
