A respiratory apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, the respiratory apparatus A includes a half-faced bowl-shaped face 1 that covers the nose and mouth of the user's face, and a reed valve-type intake valve 2 that is attached to the face 1. An exhaust valve 3, an electric fan 4 that is disposed upstream of the intake valve 2 with respect to the intake air flow and supplies outside air into the face body 1 through the intake valve 2, and an upstream side of the electric fan 4 with respect to the intake air flow. And a filter 5 for filtering outside air sucked into the electric fan 4.
The breathing apparatus A includes a first absolute pressure sensor 6 attached to the outer surface of the face piece 1 and a second absolute pressure sensor 7 attached to the inner face of the face piece 1. The first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the second absolute pressure sensor 7 cooperate to form a respiratory monitoring device 8.
The first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the second absolute pressure sensor 7 are evacuated as disclosed in, for example, JP-A-6-018345, JP-A-11-241966, JP-A-2000-019044, and the like. A held reference pressure chamber and a part of the boundary wall of the reference pressure chamber are formed, and a diaphragm exposed to the external environment and a suncer for measuring the displacement of the diaphragm are provided. In recent years, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-185903, an absolute pressure sensor having a high accuracy and a minute size has been developed and provided to the market. Therefore, it is desirable to use, as the first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the second absolute pressure sensor 7, an absolute pressure sensor having a high accuracy and a small size provided on the market.
The breathing apparatus A includes a control device 9 that receives the detection signal of the first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the detection signal of the second absolute pressure sensor 7 and controls the operation of the electric fan 4. The control device 9 is disposed in the vicinity of the electric fan 4. The breathing apparatus A further includes a detachable battery (not shown) that is attached to the face piece 1 and supplies power to the control device 9. Electric power is supplied to the electric fan 4, the first absolute pressure sensor 6, and the second absolute pressure sensor 7 via the control device 9.

呼吸装置Aの作動を説明する。
呼吸装置Aの使用者は、面体1を顔面に装着する前に、先ず図示しないバッテリーを呼吸装置Aに装着する。バッテリーから制御装置9に電力が供給される。制御装置9は、電力供給が開始されると直ちに、第1絶対圧力センサー6、第2絶対圧力センサー7の零点補正を行う。零点補正がされた第1絶対圧力センサー6、第2絶対圧力センサー7は、絶対圧力の計測を開始する。
使用者が面体1を顔面に装着する。使用者は、図1に一点鎖線で示す使用者の顔面の鼻と口とを含む一部を覆うように、或いは使用者の顔面の全部を覆うように、面体1を頭部に装着する。面体1の環状縁部が顔面に密着して、前記環状縁部と顔面との当接部からの面体1内への外気の侵入を阻止する。面体1が使用者の顔面に装着されることにより、呼吸装置Aが使用者の頭部に装着される。
使用者の吸気動作に伴って、フィルター5と電動ファン4と吸気弁2とを通って面体1に清浄空気が供給され、使用者の吸気となる。使用者の呼気動作に伴って、使用者の呼気が排気弁3を通って面体1外へ排出される。
第1絶対圧力センサー6の検知信号と第2絶対圧力センサー7の検知信号とが制御装置9に入力される。制御装置9は、第2絶対圧力センサー7の検知圧力から第1絶対圧力センサー6の検知圧力を差し引いて、両者の差圧である面体内圧(相対圧力)を算出する。制御装置9は、面体内圧(相対圧力)の零値からの変化量が所定値を超えると呼吸装置Aが使用者の頭部に装着されたと認識し、電動ファン4を始動させる。制御装置9は、所定の微小時間間隔で第1絶対圧力センサー6、第2絶対圧力センサー7の検知信号に基づいて面体内圧(相対圧力)の算出を繰り返し、算出した面体内圧が所定の正圧に維持されるように、電動ファン4の回転数制御を繰り返す。この結果、吸気時には電動ファン4の回転数が増加し、呼気時には電動ファン4の回転数が減少し、或いは電動ファン4が停止する。
呼吸装置Aが使用者の頭部から取り外されると、面体内圧(相対圧力)が零値に復帰する。制御装置9は、面体内圧が零値に復帰した状態が所定時間継続すると、呼吸装置Aが使用者の頭部から取り外されたと認識し、電動ファン4を停止させる。
The operation of the breathing apparatus A will be described.
A user of the respiratory apparatus A first attaches a battery (not shown) to the respiratory apparatus A before attaching the face 1 to the face. Electric power is supplied from the battery to the control device 9. As soon as power supply is started, the control device 9 corrects the zero point of the first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the second absolute pressure sensor 7. The first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the second absolute pressure sensor 7 subjected to the zero point correction start measuring absolute pressure.
A user wears the face 1 on the face. The user wears the face 1 on the head so as to cover a part including the nose and mouth of the user's face indicated by a one-dot chain line in FIG. 1 or to cover the entire face of the user. The annular edge portion of the face piece 1 is brought into close contact with the face to prevent the outside air from entering the face piece 1 from the contact portion between the annular edge portion and the face. By attaching the face 1 to the user's face, the respiratory apparatus A is attached to the user's head.
With the user's intake operation, clean air is supplied to the face piece 1 through the filter 5, the electric fan 4, and the intake valve 2, and becomes the user's intake air. Accompanying the user's exhalation operation, the exhalation of the user passes through the exhaust valve 3 and is discharged out of the face piece 1.
A detection signal from the first absolute pressure sensor 6 and a detection signal from the second absolute pressure sensor 7 are input to the control device 9. The control device 9 subtracts the detected pressure of the first absolute pressure sensor 6 from the detected pressure of the second absolute pressure sensor 7 to calculate the in-plane pressure (relative pressure) that is the differential pressure between the two. The control device 9 recognizes that the respiratory device A is attached to the user's head when the amount of change from zero in the intra-body pressure (relative pressure) exceeds a predetermined value, and starts the electric fan 4. The control device 9 repeatedly calculates the intracorporeal pressure (relative pressure) based on the detection signals of the first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the second absolute pressure sensor 7 at predetermined minute time intervals, and the calculated intracorporeal pressure is a predetermined positive pressure. The rotation speed control of the electric fan 4 is repeated so as to be maintained. As a result, the rotational speed of the electric fan 4 increases during inhalation, and the rotational speed of the electric fan 4 decreases during expiration, or the electric fan 4 stops.
When the breathing apparatus A is removed from the user's head, the in-plane pressure (relative pressure) returns to zero. The controller 9 recognizes that the breathing apparatus A has been removed from the user's head when the in-plane pressure has returned to zero and continues for a predetermined time, and stops the electric fan 4.

呼吸装置Aにおいては呼吸モニター装置8は、面体外圧を検知する第1絶対圧力センサー6と面体内圧を検知する第2絶対圧力センサー7とを備えているので、第2絶対圧力センサー7の検知圧から第1絶対圧力センサー6の検知圧を差し引くことにより、両者の差圧である面体内圧(相対圧)を検知することができる。近年市場に提供され始めた、高精度且つ微小寸法の絶対圧力センサーを、第1絶対圧力センサー6、第2絶対圧力センサー7として使用することにより、特許文献1の呼吸装置で問題となった、ダイヤフラム応答性の製品毎のばらつきに起因する、呼吸に連動した電動ファン制御の製品毎のばらつきを抑制することができる。
第2絶対圧力センサー7が検知した面体内圧と第1絶対圧力センサー6が検知した面体外圧との差圧が所定の正圧になるように、電動ファン4の作動を制御することにより、面体内圧(相対圧)が所定の正圧に維持される。
制御装置9が、第1絶対圧力センサー6と第2絶対圧力センサー7の零点補正を同時に行うことにより、その後の面体内圧(相対圧)を検知することが可能となる。零点補正は、第1絶対圧力センサー6と第2絶対圧力センサー7が同一圧力条件下に在る、面体装着前に行う必要がある。
零点補正スイッチや零点補正釦を面体1に取り付け、零点補正スイッチや零点補正釦を手動で操作して、第1絶対圧力センサー6と第2絶対圧力センサー7の零点補正を同時に行っても良い。
面体1は、使用者の顔面全体を覆う全面形の面体でも良い。
In the respiratory device A, the respiratory monitoring device 8 includes the first absolute pressure sensor 6 that detects the external pressure of the face and the second absolute pressure sensor 7 that detects the pressure in the face, and therefore the detection pressure of the second absolute pressure sensor 7. By subtracting the detection pressure of the first absolute pressure sensor 6 from the above, the in-plane pressure (relative pressure) that is the differential pressure between them can be detected. By using the high-precision and minute absolute pressure sensor, which has begun to be offered to the market in recent years, as the first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the second absolute pressure sensor 7, there has been a problem in the breathing apparatus of Patent Document 1. It is possible to suppress the variation of each product of the electric fan control linked to the respiration, which is caused by the variation of the diaphragm responsiveness from product to product.
By controlling the operation of the electric fan 4 so that the differential pressure between the in-plane pressure detected by the second absolute pressure sensor 7 and the out-of-plane pressure detected by the first absolute pressure sensor 6 becomes a predetermined positive pressure, the in-plane pressure is controlled. (Relative pressure) is maintained at a predetermined positive pressure.
The controller 9 simultaneously detects the zero point correction of the first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the second absolute pressure sensor 7, thereby making it possible to detect the subsequent in-plane pressure (relative pressure). The zero point correction needs to be performed before mounting the face piece in which the first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the second absolute pressure sensor 7 are under the same pressure condition.
A zero point correction switch and a zero point correction button may be attached to the face body 1, and the zero point correction of the first absolute pressure sensor 6 and the second absolute pressure sensor 7 may be performed simultaneously by manually operating the zero point correction switch and the zero point correction button.
The face piece 1 may be a full face face covering the entire face of the user.

In the breathing apparatus B connected to the air supply passage 11, the air supply passage 11 formed by the electric fan 4, the filter 5, and the air supply hose 10 is conventionally disclosed in EP Patent No. 0130707 and EP Patent No. 05293838. A differential pressure between an internal pressure at an intermediate position between the first predetermined position, for example, the electric fan 4 and the filter 5, and an internal pressure at a second predetermined position, for example, a position immediately downstream of the electric fan 4, is detected using a relative pressure sensor having a diaphragm. Alternatively, a differential pressure between an internal pressure at a third predetermined position in the air supply passage 11, for example, an intermediate position between the electric fan 4 and the filter 5, and an external pressure in the air supply passage 11 can be obtained. It detected using the relative pressure sensor having, based on the detected differential pressure, and controls the operation of the electric fan 4 interlocked with respiration. Also in the respiratory apparatus, the absolute pressure at the first predetermined position and the second predetermined position, or the absolute value outside the third predetermined position and the air supply passage, which is detected using an absolute pressure sensor with a high accuracy and a minute dimension. By detecting the pressure difference between the two points from the pressure, or the fourth predetermined position in the face body and the absolute pressure outside the face body, and controlling the operation of the electric fan 4 linked to respiration based on the pressure difference, It is possible to suppress the variation of each product of the electric fan control linked to the respiration, which is caused by the variation of the diaphragm responsiveness from product to product.
