| dc.description | It is an incubator for emergency premature delivery situations both in the case of need to help the neonate as well as the neonate and mother. It is inexpensive, portable and foldable to fill a reduced space both during storage and transportation. In folded position, it is reduced to a briefcase that can be carried by one person by any conveyance, including a motorcycle. Once deployed, the incubator can keep the neonate lying in its cabin under controlled environmental conditions and it can be attached to any vehicle, using its restraint systems. The briefcase has two parts: the back, containing all the elements for the control of ambient comfort in the incubator and the front cover, which can be moved away from the rest of the briefcase, deploying the cabin. In this cover, there is a transparent window through which the neonate can be introduced in the cabin. The control unit is capable of controlling the ambient temperature, both, in situations of cold and heat, as well as providing means for modifying the oxygen concentration and renewing the air inside the incubator cabin. The air inlet of the cabin is implemented by means of a specifically designed nozzle, able to prevent the formation of air currents inside. | en |
