Abstract
A modular elbow frame assembly for a ventilator, which includes an elbow, a hose, a tubular connector, an external connecting component, a frame, a noise reduction element, a quick-release device. The modular elbow frame assembly for a ventilator can be used in conjunction with a patient interface cushion and a ventilator tube. In this system, the quick-release device is integrally formed with the elbow. The assembly involves a modular design that makes the elbow detachable, allowing the replacement of the elbow with exhaust holes of different numbers or diameters for patients to adjust airflow pressure into the airway. The quick-release device enables the rapid detachment between the elbow and the frame or patient interface cushions. Patients can choose whether to include the noise reduction element and whether to connect the ventilator tube via a hose or directly through a tubular connector.
