Disclosed herein is an in-mask display or feedback system having a lens coupled to a face blank of the mask, the lens covering a facepiece. The feedback system includes a display apparatus coupled to the facepiece, and disposed within an interior of the mask, the display apparatus being powered by a first power source coupled to a housing of the display apparatus. The feedback system further includes a recording device (e.g., a camera) coupled to the face blank, the recording device operable to communicate data (e.g., wirelessly or wired) with the display apparatus. In some approaches, the recording device is powered by a second power source. In other approaches, the first power source provides power to both the recording device and the display apparatus. In another approach, the display apparatus includes an adjustment aperture formed therethrough to allow adjustment of an eye piece housing a display.

A mask system includes a headphone part having two ear cups and an elastic headband bearing the ear cups, an oxygen mask part having an oxygen mask arranged pivotably on the headband, and a spectacles part having protective spectacles arranged pivotably on the headband. The oxygen mask part can make the oxygen mask, with headband mounted on a head, move into a usage setting and a rest setting. The oxygen mask, in the usage setting, covers a mouth and nose of a user and, in the rest setting, lies at least partially above the headband mounted on a head. The spectacles part can make the protective spectacles, with headband mounted on the head, pivot into a usage setting and a rest setting. The protective spectacles, in the usage setting, cover the eyes of a user and, in the rest setting, lie at least partially above the headband.

A full face respirator comprising a mask (10) having a transparent viewing portion (12) and a port portion (16), and exhalation port (22) disposed in said port portion (16), a face seal configured (14) to seal the mask (10) over a wearer's eyes, nose and mouth, in use, and an orinasal assembly (2) comprising a flexible, cup-shaped orinasal (2) having an orifice (2a) and being configured to fit over a wearer's nose and mouth, in use; wherein the orinasal assembly (2) further comprises a generally tubular connecting portion (24), integrally formed with and extending outwardly from the periphery of said orifice (2a), said connection portion (24) being shaped and configured to extend through said exhalation port (22) from the inner region to the outer region of the mask (10) and including an exhalation valve mount (28) for receiving a one-way exhalation valve (4).

A head protection device (2), for protecting the head, includes a head bracket (4), with a visor (8) fastened rotatably to the head bracket (4) via two swivel joints (6), and with a branched air duct (10), which has one air inlet (12) and a plurality of air outlets (14). At least one of the air outlets (14) is arranged as a chin air outlet (20) at a lateral section (22) of the visor. At least one of the swivel joints (6) forms an inner air channel (24) extending as a part of the air duct (10) from the head bracket (4) to the visor (8). In addition, a respirator device is provided with the head protection device (2).

Improved personal protective equipment facial wear including, in one embodiment, an at least partly adhesive mask, and one or more adhesive eye shields. In one implementation, the mask avoids significant contact with the delicate periorbital skin of the wearer, yet provides a substantially airtight seal so as to preclude moisture vapor transfer and fogging of eyeware or instruments. In another implementation, adherence of the eye shield is at least partially overlapping with the mask and creates an at least partial seal around a perimeter of the eye shield. Further, an at least partial seal is formed around a perimeter of the mask. The mask and eye shield additionally prevent nasal air flow obstruction, and address the problem of skin irritation and attachment during normal facial expression and movement of the wearer.

A gas mask, for use with a gas filter or with a demand oxygen system, includes an elastic mask body, a connector and a counter-support. The elastic mask body is configured to be placed over the mouth and the nose of a user of the gas mask. The connector is attached to the elastic mask body and is configured to fix a gas filter or an end piece of a tube in a mount of the connector. The counter-support is attached to the elastic mask body and has a contact area for a support projection of the connector. The connector and the counter-support are arranged such that a force exerted on the connector in a direction of the user acts on the contact area of the counter-support at least partially via the support projection. The support projection is integrated at the connector by manufacturing in one piece.

In one aspect, an eye shield for a respirator mask of the type having a face piece adapted to fit over the face of a user is provided. The eye shield includes a visor assembly including a visor surrounded by a frame, the visor assembly configured to be removably mounted in an opening in the face piece. One or more fastener elements are provided on the frame for removably securing the visor assembly to the face piece. The visor is formed of a transparent material which filters electromagnetic energy emissions at one or more preselected wavelengths. In certain embodiments, one or more head up display assemblies are attached to the visor assembly for projecting a human viewable image to the visor.

Full facemask including a face seal configured to directly engage a face of an individual. The face seal defines a lens opening. The full facemask also includes a mask lens that is coupled to the face seal and disposed within the lens opening. The mask lens has a passage edge that defines a cartridge passage through the mask lens. The full facemask also includes a cartridge module having at least one of a filter or an air regulator. The cartridge module is disposed within the cartridge passage and circumscribed by the passage edge of the mask lens. The full facemask also includes a locking member that includes a first member surface that directly engages the mask lens and a second member surface that directly engages the cartridge module. The locking member secures the mask lens and the cartridge module in fixed positions with respect to each other.

A half facepiece respirator has a shaped support piece supporting and fixing the position of a particle or paper filter insert or outsert with either the support piece or the particle filter incorporating a face sealing component. Placed within the shaped support piece, a grille may be placed in the lower section of the shaped support piece. Additionally the half facepiece includes a head harness having a release mechanism.

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.
