22 Portable neonatal intensive care unit US14446749 2014-07-30 US09433524B2 2016-09-06 Marc R Nadeau
The present invention relates to a portable, self-contained, neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) providing heating (or cooling) for the patient by controlled exchange of thermal energy between a transparent enclosure that houses the infant and an internal reservoir. The invention has no requirement for electrical power. The internal reservoir utilizes water that is heated (or cooled) by an external source. The micro-environment inside the transparent enclosure for the infant and the water inside the internal reservoir are thermally and acoustically isolated in order to minimize heat and sound exchange with the ambient environment.

26 Movable wall portion attachment mechanism of incubator US13414174 2012-03-07 US09011313B2 2015-04-21 Kazuo Matsubara; Terumi Matsubara; Tomoichi Kira; Toshio Otomo
According to the present invention, a movable wall portion for forming the outer circumference of an infant accommodation space can pivot forward about a portion of a region including the lower end portion and its vicinity of the movable wall portion from a substantially erect position to the outside of the infant accommodation space. The movable wall portion can move backward from a midway position in forward movement to the final backward moving position by its own weight while abrupt backward movement is suppressed by a damper. The present invention can provide a movable wall portion attachment mechanism of an incubator which does not produce a large sound or a large vibration when closing the movable wall portion, with a small chance that wall portions such as wall portions on the incubator base side, the movable wall portion or the like will be damaged.

34 Radiant field management for infant care apparatus US10282970 2002-10-29 US06905457B2 2005-06-14 Michael H. Mackin
An infant warming apparatus that has a canopy vertically movable with respect to an infant resting on an infant between a lower position wherein the apparatus functions as an incubator and an upper position where the apparatus functions as an infant warmer. A radiant heater is located on the canopy and directs infrared energy in a first path towards the infant platform to warm the infant when the canopy is in the upper position. When the canopy is moved to its lower position to act as an incubator, the infrared energy is redirected along a second path that is directed away from the infant platform so as to prevent residual infrared energy that continues to be emitted even after discontinuing power to the radiant heater from affecting the infant as that radiant heater is moved to a position in close proximity to the infant.

40 Infant support thermal control system and method US10123644 2002-04-16 US06666816B2 2003-12-23 Michael F. Mountain
A control system and a method for controlling an infant support configurable in a closed configuration in which a canopy contributes to formation of an enclosure about an infant support surface, and an open configuration is disclosed. The controlled infant support includes an air heater, a blower, and duct work communicating with the air heater, blower and enclosure. To facilitate bringing the air temperature within the enclosure quickly to a desired temperature whereby the temperature of an infant in the enclosure is controlled, power is supplied to air heater when infant support is in the open configuration to generate a heat reservoir. Upon the infant support assuming the closed configuration the controller controls power to the blower to increase air flow and infuse heat from the heat reservoir into the enclosure.
