ABSTRACT
Objective To design a real-time oxygen generation and supply device for ambulances and to carry out finite element simulated analysis and performance evaluation .Methods Based on the working principles of pressure swing adsorption (PSA) and oxygen pneumatic compression technology ,the structural components and technological processes of an oxygen generation and compression unit as well as an oxygen filling and supply unit were built .The integrated structure of the device was designed by Solidworks .The static structure of the oxygen generation and compression unit was analyzed by ANSYS.Modal analysis of the circuit board was also conducted .The performance of the prototype was evaluated .Results Wtih a stable structure and reliable circuitry , the device could produce and fill oxygen automatically at the flow of 5.0 L/min, concentration of 94.0%, and pressure of 13.0 MPa.Conclusion This device can produce , fill and supply oxygen automatically,and the goal of design is achieved .
