PORT WASHINGTON, N.Y. (December 1, 2016)—DeVilbiss Healthcare announced today it has been awarded a patent for its suction container replaceable filter cartridge.
“This invention’s unique design helps to isolate the user and the suction device from the contents of the container by combining a traditional ball float shutoff mechanism with a replaceable hygroscopic filter cartridge,” said Allan Jones, director of engineering for DeVilbiss Healthcare.
