Protective Apparel System With A Lens Assembly
A protective apparel system comprising a surgical helmet including a peripheral device and a surgical garment configured to be disposed over the helmet. The garment comprises a fabric and a face shield defining a sterile barrier between the wearer and the environment. At least one of a coupling member or housing may disposed on the face shield, the coupling member configured for removably couple the peripheral device to the face shield to orient the peripheral device relative to the face shield when the surgical garment is disposed over the surgical helmet. The housing may removably couple a lens assembly to the face shield.
COLLAPSIBLE PROTECTIVE RESPIRATORY MASK
A collapsible respiratory mask includes a flexible main body having a face-engaging flange that provides a continuous seal against a wearer's face and viewing windows that provide full peripheral vision to maximize the wearer's field of view. Filter panels are provided on opposite sides of the mask that allow for single-use disposable or replaceable assemblies, and each comprise a multi-layer assembly sewn around the perimeter with a fluorescent thread. A urethane gasket encloses the perimeter with the fluorescent thread viewable from inside of the gasket under ultraviolet light. An inner nose cup guides air that is inhaled through the filter panels past the viewing windows and into a separated air compartment inside of the nose cup, creating an airflow that minimizes fogging on the interior of the viewing windows. The mask is equipped with straps configured to enable a wearer to don the mask alone or with a protective helmet by attachment to a rail on the helmet.
DISPENSER AND SHIELD
To provide a shield and a dispenser from which the shield can be easily dispensed, the dispenser (100) according to the present invention stores a plurality of shields (1A) in a mutually detachable joined state in the container (50). As such, sliding and the like of the plurality of the shields (1A) against each other in the container (50) is suppressed and, therefore, sticking of the shields (1A) to each other due to the generation of static electricity is suppressed. Thus, a user can easily dispense the shields (1A) from the dispensing opening (51) of the container (50).
Face mask seal for use with respirator devices and surgical facemasks, having an anatomically defined geometry conforming to critical fit zones of human facial anatomy, and capable of being actively custom fitted to the user's face
The present disclosure is a face seal (FS) device for filtering face piece respirators (FFR) of all types, that corrects inner face seal leakage (FSIL) of particulate material that occurs due to well documented failures in FS designs of the prior art. The present disclosure differs from those of the prior art in having compensatory accentuations at locations along the entire 360 deg. FS inner perimeter that are based on specific details of facial human anatomy which are known to be sites of FSIL. The FS is also constructed of a heat activated thermoplastic copolymer that enables the device to be custom fitted to the user's face. Experimental data, confirmed with workplace protective factor (WPF) studies, show a 60-240 fold improved performance over FS designs of the prior art.
Retrofit sensor module for a protective head top
The present disclosure includes a retrofit sensor module for use with a protective head top with a helmet and a visor. The sensor module includes a sensor housing and an attachment mechanism. The sensor housing encloses a head presence sensor to sense when the protective head top is being worn. The sensor housing also encloses a position sensor to sense the position of the visor relative to the helmet. The retrofit sensor module further comprises an attachment mechanism secured to the housing. The attachment mechanism mates with a first hinge component of a hinge assembly in the protective head top to removably install the sensor module into the protective head top, wherein the hinge assembly allows the visor to move relative to the helmet.
FULL FACE PIECE OF A BREATHING APPARATUS
[Object of the Invention] An object of the present invention is to provide a full face piece of a breathing apparatus provided with an eyepiece for covering a front part and both side parts of a face and a main body integrally united with a circumference of the eyepiece so as to cover a circumferential part of the face, wherein the eyepiece is made of transparent hard plastic material and the main body is made of flexible elastic material, and wherein man-hours required to manufacture a metal mold for manufacturing the eyepiece are fewer than in the case of the conventional full face piece.

HARMFUL-SUBSTANCE-BLOCKING HEALTH MASK USING AIR CURTAIN
A health mask includes: a body part resting on and covering a partial area of a face, including a respiratory system of a user, the body part having an internal space formed therein; a tight fitting part positioned along a circumference of the body part such that the body part is tightly fitted to the partial area of the face; an ear loop part positioned at opposite sides of the body part such that the body part is secured to the partial area of the face; a filter part positioned at the opposite sides of the body part such that external air is purified and supplied to the internal space of the body part; and an air curtain-forming means provided on the body part such that an air curtain is formed around the body part to block entry of external substances.
Respirator having an integrated oronasal mask
A respirator comprising an outer mask in which is defined a main volume and an oronasal mask located within the outer mask and defining a secondary volume. Air for breathing enters the mask via a one-way valve and filter. Exhaled air exits the mask via an exhale conduit fitted with an exhale valve. A conduit is provided for the passage of air from the outer mask to the oronasal mask. The conduit is fitted with a one-way valve and a filter. The filter is such as to filter either particular or vapor challenges, or a mixture of these, as required.
PROTECTIVE SYSTEM FOR AIRCRAFT PILOT
A protective system for aircraft pilot comprises a breathing mask, an eye protection and a safety device. The breathing mask is designed to supply the pilot with a respiratory gas and the breathing mask comprises an oxygen supply duct intended to be connected to an aircraft cockpit. The eye protection comprises a screen intended to extend between the pilot's eyes and an external space. The safety device comprises a display device and a support. The display device is able to display, notably in front of a pilot's eye, information intended to assist in the piloting of the aircraft. The support carries the display device so as to keep the display of information in front of the pilot's eye.
Pleated Spray Tan Mask And Method Of Donning
A pleated spray tan mask and method of donning is donned and attached around the face, so as to protect a user from inhaling undesired airborne particles or vapor while being spray tanned with tanning composition, and also to prevent tanning composition from coating the face. The mask comprises three panels that cover a portion of the face and perform independent functions for protecting against sprayed tanning compositions. The mask provides a forehead panel and a lower face panel that are pleated to increase in size for larger heads. Pleats allow the mask to be one-size-fits-all. Another unique feature of the forehead and lower face panels is that flaps form at the edges of the individual panels. Flaps fold inwardly and enhance airflow behind the panels. Further, a mid-face panel disposed between the forehead and lower face panels is at least partially transparent to enable visibility while being spray tanned.
