MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611107555 A) filed by Chandigarh University on September 07, 2026, for Self-Powered Respiratory Mask With Integrated Oxygen Generation And Therapeutic Steam Delivery.
Inventors include Deepti Sharma; and Deven.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: he present invention relates to a self-powered respiratory mask (100) configured to provide integrated respiratory therapy through oxygen generation, nasal cleaning, and therapeutic steam delivery. The respiratory mask (100) comprises a mask body (102), one or more piezoelectric sensors (104) configured to detect respiratory airflow associated with breathing, coughing, or sneezing, an energy harvesting module (105) configured to convert airflow-generated mechanical energy into electrical energy, a micro energy storage unit (107), a control unit (108), an oxygen generation unit (101), a medication reservoir (109), a steam inhalation chamber (110), and a nasal cleaning nozzle (103). Upon detection of a respiratory event exceeding a predetermined threshold, the control unit (108) selectively activates the oxygen generation unit (101) and/or the steam inhalation chamber (110) using stored energy harvested from coughing or sneezing airflow. The invention provides an autonomous event-driven respiratory therapy system without dependence upon external power sources, thereby improving portability, respiratory support, and therapeutic effectiveness.
