Portable lung apparatus

A composite mechanical lung machine, consisting of:

• medical oxygen supply means;
• isotonic, breathable liquid oxygen saturator means connected to said oxygen supply means for saturating isotonic, breathable liquid with oxygen from said supply means;
• first heat exchanger means connected to said oxygen saturator means for temperature adjustment of the breathable liquid;
• means for introducing said oxygen saturated isotonic liquid into animal lung(s) cavity;
• means for removing said isotonic liquid from the animal lung(s) cavity;
• first transfer pump means for transferring said isotonic, breathable liquid from said first heat exchanger means to said introducing means;
• first flow and pressure control means connected between said first transfer pump means and said introducing means for controlling flow and pressure of said isotonic, breathable liquid to said introducing means;
• separator means for separating said isotonic, breathable liquid from aqueous liquids accumulated from said lung(s) cavity;
• second transfer pump means connected for transferring said isotonic, breathable liquid from said removing means to said separator means;
• second flow and pressure control means connected between said second transfer pump means and said removing means for controlling flow and pressure of said isotonic, breathable liquid from said removing means;
• filter means connected to said separator means for separation and removal of particulate solids from the isotonic, breathable liquid accumulated from the lunt(s) cavity;
• heat exchange sterilizer means connected to said filter means for heat stripping absorbed carbon dioxide from the breathable liquid accumulated in the lung(s) cavity and sterilizing said breathable liquid;
• second heat exchanger means connected to said sterilizer means for temperature adjustment of the breathable liquid from said sterilizer means to a selected body use temperature;
• third transfer pump means for transferring said isotonic, breathable liquid from said second heat exchanger means to said oxygen saturator;
• and
• third flow and pressure control means connected between said third transfer pump means and said oxygen saturator means for controlling flow and pressure of said isotonic, breathable liquid from said third transfer pump means.
