| 20090300609 | Combining system blueprints, functional layer, and software bits in parallel development of machines - A self-replicating machine includes a virtualization tool, a provisioning tool, and a configuration tool, stored in a distributable self-contained repository of the machine. The machine is able to automatically rebuild itself solely from the tools stored in the distributable self-contained repository. The virtualization tool is configured to build one or more virtual machines on the machine. Each virtual machine has a corresponding operating system and environment. The provisioning tool is configured to provision the one or more virtual machines. The configuration tool is to configure the one or more provisioned virtual machines. A custom configuration management tool further customize and configure the physical machine for specific users. A source code management tool stored in the distributable self-contained repository is configured to develop each virtual machine independently from each other in parallel, and to merge back the developments to a corresponding parent virtual machine. | 12-03-2009 |

| 20080202337 | Gas concentrator with improved water rejection capability - A feed gas drying system is described for a PSA or VPSA oxygen concentrator. A membrane dryer is inserted into the feed gas path to the concentrator absorbent beds, such that the moisture in the feed gas is directed to a part of the dryer exposed to the concentrator exhaust, thus achieving efficient operation of the membrane dryer with no loss of concentrator feed gas. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20090126736 | In-home medical data collection and reporting system - The invention is an oxygen system, including a home care system, for patients who require supplemental oxygen. Built around an intelligent portable oxygen concentrator, the system incorporates a variety of patient monitoring and reporting function enabled by the processing and communications channels built into the concentrator. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090131763 | Method for improving in-home patient monitoring - The invention is a method to improve in-home care for patients who require supplemental oxygen. Built around an intelligent portable oxygen concentrator which can acquire and store patient data and make the data available over the internet, the method allows a physician to access the data over the internet in sufficient detail to justify billing Medicare or other insurance providers, thus incentivising the physician to monitor the patient more often. The data system provider receives a fee for data access thus making the process profitable enough to be sustainable. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20100282084 | Gas concentrator with improved water rejection capability - A feed gas drying system is described for a PSA or VPSA oxygen concentrator. A membrane dryer is inserted into the feed gas path to the concentrator absorbent beds, such that the moisture in the feed gas is directed to a part of the dryer exposed to the concentrator exhaust, thus achieving efficient operation of the membrane dryer with no loss of concentrator feed gas. | 11-11-2010 |
| 20110067566 | Adsorbent bed pressure balancing for a gas concentrator - A system and a method are described for monitoring pressure imbalances in the adsorbent beds of a portable gas concentrator. Using the programmability features found in modern portable concentrators, various mitigative procedures to adjust for pressure imbalances and to predict the need for service are disclosed. | 03-24-2011 |
