Abstract

A breathing bag including a distensible bag portion and an integrally formed neck portion thicker than the distensible bag portion and sufficiently thick to be connected directly to a male fitting; the distensible bag portion may be fluted.

1 . A breathing bag for being connected to a male fitting, comprising: 
 a fluted distensible bag portion and an integrally formed connector portion sufficiently rigid to connect directly to the male fitting.    
     
     
         2 . A breathing bag for being connected to a male fitting, comprising: 
 a fluted distensible bag portion having a first thickness and a connector portion formed integrally with said distensible bag portion and having a second thickness greater than said first thickness, said connector portion sufficiently thick to connect directly to the male fitting.    
     
     
         3 . The breathing bag according to  claim 2  wherein said second thickness is about seven times thicker than said first thickness.  
     
     
         4 . The breathing bag according to  claim 2  wherein said second thickness is from about 6 to about 8 times thicker than said first thickness.  
     
     
         5 . The breathing bag according to  claim 2  wherein said distensible bag portion and said connector portion provide an internal airway therebetween and wherein said breathing bag further includes means formed integrally therewith for preventing occlusion of said airway.  
     
     
         6 . The breathing bag according to  claim 5  wherein said means comprise at least two internal ridges molded into the integral connection between said distensible portion and said connector portion.  
     
     
         7 . A breathing bag for being connected to a male fitting, comprising: 
 a distensible bag portion and an integrally formed connector portion sufficiently rigid to connect directly to the male fitting.
