Bivalv
Oxygen Tank Carrier

Portable oxygen use reinvented through a clam shell encasing mechanism that allows for an easier set up by decreasing the distance required to lift a tank into the holder.

Uncomfortable accessory
How might we improve existing portable
oxygen equipment to refine the user's
experience both emotionally and physically, in order to alleviate the initial self-consciousness and discomfort found in the use of supplemental oxygen?

Ideation

1. Place the oxygen tank in the opening of the base.
2. By the weight of the tank, the shell will close on itself.
3. Secure the tank with the two side-release buckle clasps.
