Both of your CPAPs are 12V, which simplifies your project. Neither of the machines draw enough power for a humidifier. Therefore you do not need an inverter.
You will need two power jacks similar to what's in your tow vehicle installed on each side of the bed. They will be connected directly to the batteries. A good RV maintenance shop could do this with minimal cost.
You will need two batteries and they should be of the same type and age. Two group 27 batteries rated to deliver 100 amp each. You don't want to draw them down below 50% so that leaves you with 100 amps useable. AGM batteries may be the best choice for your needs because they can be charged faster.
8 hours of CPAP use will consume 60amp hrs per night and then you will need to replenish by charging the batteries.
A 2000W inverter generator will provide the power to the campers converter/charger. That can be Honda, Yamaha or Champion. If you want to run the Air Conditioner then larger generator is required such as a 3000W inverter generator.
