ABSTRACT:
A device for trapping condensation such as condensed water vapor and moisture from a gas directing tube in a single piece unit is disclosed. The device is particularly useful with respiratory therapy machines. The present invention allows condensation to travel in only one direction and includes at least one inlet pipe and at least one outlet pipe connected to the gas directing tube. A fluid reservoir is formed between the interior wall of the inlet pipe or pipes and the exterior wall of the extended internal portion of the outlet pipe or pipes. The external and internal portions of the device may be altered in shape and size for use in different applications.
