Summary:To provide a humidifier for humidifying a flow of pressurized breathable gas to be delivered to a patient.SOLUTION: A humidifier includes a dock and a humidification tank. The dock includes a device compartment that is configured to at least partially removably receive an RPT device that is configured to supply the flow of pressurized breathable gas. The dock also includes a humidification compartment that is fluidly connected to the device compartment. The humidification tank is configured to contain predetermined volume of water and is at least partially removably received within the humidification compartment so that, in an operational configuration, the humidification tank is arranged to receive the flow of pressurized breathable gas and output the flow of pressurized breathable gas with increased humidity. The dock also includes a heater fixed to the humidification tank. The heater is configured to heat the predetermined volume of water.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5D 【課題】患者へ送達される加圧された呼吸可能なガスの流れを加湿するための加湿器を提供する。【解決手段】加湿器は、ドックと加湿槽とを含む。前記ドックは、前記加圧された呼吸可能なガスの流れを供給するように構成されたRPTデバイスを少なくとも部分的に取り外し可能に受けるように構成されたデバイス室を含む。前記ドックは、前記デバイス室に流体接続された加湿室も含む。前記加湿槽は、動作構成において、前記加圧された呼吸可能なガスの流れを受け、湿度が増加した前記加圧された呼吸可能なガスの流れを出力するように配置されるように、所定量の水を収容するように構成され、前記加湿室内に少なくとも部分的に取り外し可能に受けられる。前記ドックは、前記加湿槽に固定されたヒーターも含む。前記ヒーターは、前記所定量の水を加熱するように構成される。【選択図】図5D
