Abstract
A swivel filter assembly for use with a wide variety of different types of sleep apnea equipment and other respiratory, pressure and/or breathing devices including oxygen concentrators and ventilators, one end portion of the overall assembly being adaptable for coupling to a source for providing air or other gas to the filter assembly and the other end portion being engageable with tubing adaptable for conveying air or other gas away from the filter assembly. The end portion of the filter assembly engageable with associated tubing is freely rotatable relative to the rest of the assembly thereby enabling the tubing engaged therewith to freely swivel and rotate to prevent binding and crimping of the tubing during use by a patient. The present assembly includes a space or cavity for receiving a filter member, the filter member being positioned across the passageway extending through the overall assembly for removing contaminants from the air or other gas as the air or other gas passes through the filter assembly.
