First, disclaimers.

  1. This is not for human use whatsoever.

  2. I am not affiliated with Boost or any other brand of canned oxygen.

  3. Pure oxygen is potentially very dangerous.

  4. This design is obviously not how any manufacturer intended their protect to be used. Use at your own risk.

  5. I am not responsible for any damage, injury, loss of life, etc. whatsoever.

  6. I am not a veterinarian. Consult your vet about any potential medical use.

  7. I am just a dude that made this to help deliver oxygen to his beloved chihuahua.

Okay, backstory.

I have a chihuahua that has congestive heart failure. If she gets excited or overexerts herself, she has difficulty breathing. Her tongue turns a purple-ish-blue color when she's struggling. At my local Walmart, I saw some canned pure oxygen in the sporting goods section and thought that it may help. Sure enough, it does. After administering some oxygen, she starts breathing easier and her tongue returns to a normal pink-ish-red color almost immediately.  Again, reference the disclaimer(s). The problem is that the mask is not designed for tiny dogs. A lot of oxygen was being wasted and the cans weren't lasting. So my wife and I took a medium McDonalds cup, punched a hole in it, and glued some oxygen tubing to it. I then designed this fitting so we could put it on the shaft of the can and still our fingers to pull down on the mechanism to release air. 

It seems to work well and wastes less oxygen. My little girl still has far more good days than bad days, thank God, but its nice to have the canned air around and ready to go at a moments notice and this little design makes it a little easier and more efficient for us.

I don't care about any license agreement and I don't give a damn about credit for the design considering I vibe coded it. If someone wants to improve upon the design, by all means. All I ask is that you share the improvements freely as I did with mine. The OpenSCAD file is attached.
