An open type breathing-out particles capture and filtration device includes a mask having an air-in space defined between an upper edge of the mask and a user's face; a suction assembly including an air expelling pipe communicable with the air-in space and a fan; filtering materials located upstream of the fan; and a power supply driving the fan to rotate and produce a suction airflow. External air flowed into the mask via the air-in space and air breathed out of the user's nose and mouth is sucked by the suction airflow to pass through the filtering materials, so that air discharged from the air expelling pipe is clean air without any infection source. With the air-in space, an additional load applied to the mask by the suction airflow is reduced and contact areas between the mask and the user's face is also reduced, making the mask more comfortable for wearing.

The present invention provides a wireless rechargeable and portable anti-microbial respirator. The respirator includes a face-piece with an air inlet and an air outlet; a first belt and a second belt, the first belt is connected to ends of the face-piece, and the second belt is configured to wrap around the waist of a user; a flexible outlet tube, where the first end of the flexible outlet tube is connected to the air outlet of the face-piece; a flexible intake tube, where the first end of the flexible intake tube is connected to the air inlet of the face-piece; and a filtration system fixed onto the second belt. The key features of the respirator in the present invention include highly antibacterial and antiviral, long duration, reusable, self-cleaning and self-disinfecting, lightweight and portable, wireless power transfer, and great airflow and comfortable breathing.

An eyeglasses-like frame may include a central section that horizontally traverses a wearer's face. The central section may include a first cheek portion sized and configured to be disposed at least proximate a cheek of the wearer, and a second cheek portion sized and configured to be disposed at least proximate a cheek of the wearer. A bridge portion may be generally horizontally disposed between the first cheek portion and the second cheek portion. The first cheek portion, the second cheek portion, and the bridge portion may be disposed below a lower portion of the wearer's eyes. The eyeglasses-like frame may include a left temple section connected to the central section via a first hinge and a right temple section connected to the central section by a second hinge. A mask may be connected to the frame and the mask may be adjustable to tighten around the wearer's face.

Described herein is a multi-mask equipment (100) that includes a mask assembly M configured to accommodate a filter assembly C, D and to mount a face protective shield H. The equipment enables a filter-based mask and shield can be used together as one integrated unit, and at the same time is future ready with more options to mount or use various other accessories, like oxygen inlet/outlet, electronic equipment etc. The multi-mask equipment 100 can be mounted over the head of a wearer by means of headbands as mounting mechanism F(LHS and RHS) and straps as adjusting mechanism A3. The equipment ensures that the overall cost of the mask and face protective shield assembly is substantially low as the equipment requires bare minimum recurring cost.

Provided are a method of producing ear loop members for masks and a device for producing ear loop members for masks with which it is possible to inhibit a reduction in the production efficiency of the masks. The method of producing ear loop members (4) for masks includes a conveyance step (S2), a tension adjustment step (S3), and a forming step (S4). In the conveyance step (S2), a sheet (U1) having high stretchability in a high-stretch direction (DH) is conveyed in a conveyance direction (C10) running along the high-stretch direction (DH) while tension is applied in the high-stretch direction (DH) to the sheet (U1). In the tension adjustment step (S3), the tension in the conveyed sheet (U1) is adjusted. In the forming step (S4), ear loop members (4) are formed by cutting the sheet (U1) after the tension adjustment.

An apparatus and method for providing a filtered air environment and streams of filtered air both in front of a wearer’s face at an angle to prevent contamination by pathogens and contaminants also supply filtered air to the nostrils and mouth, which also dilute any remaining particles. The device includes a blower element configured to direct a filtered airflow across a wearer’s face at an angle to push particles away and another stream of air to lead toward the nostrils and mouth to supply filtered air. The apparatus includes a fan or multiple fan elements to develop an airflow. A filter removes contaminants from the airflow and local environment of the wearer. Variations of a vent system have an intake conduit positioned close to the exhaust conduit, with or without an air deflector, to create a “microcirculation” that helps to capture the wearer’s exhaled particles and increases the filtration process.

The present disclosure relates to an improved protective face mask for consumer and professional use. The inclusion of multiple layers, including a sealing layer, provides for an enhanced seal, improved comfort, and a reduction in the fogging or obscuring of eyewear worn in conjunction with the mask.

The nose mask is intended to be used during an airborne pandemic. The nose mask is a single triangle/cone shape that covers only the nose, that comes with two ear elastic bands or a single head elastic band for support. The nose mask is designed to be disposable with a filter for better protection and to minimize the passage of aerosols, fluids and airborne pathogen agents or to be made with washable material allowing users to re-use it.

An airflow device configured for creating an air barrier includes a fan, a power source, a laminar assembly, and an attachment mechanism. The power source is coupled to the fan. The laminar assembly includes a plurality of tubes and is coupled to the fan so that air flow generated by the fan passes through the plurality of tubes to create the air barrier. The attachment mechanism attaches the laminar assembly to a user in a location near the user's head such that the air barrier created by the laminar assembly is positioned in front of the user's face. A plenum is positioned between the fan and the laminar assembly such that the air flow generated by the fan passes through the plenum and then through the laminar assembly. The airflow device acts as a face shield that protects the user from airborne contaminants and viruses.

A device for individual protection and isolation against pollutants and microorganisms comprises a protection element (1) of the face designed to be worn by the user to at least partially cover the face and a filtering group (2) of the air inhaled and/or exhaled by the user. The protection element (1) is adapted to cover at least the whole face of the user and has at least one mouth for the passage of air provided with a one-way check valve (7) suitable to selectively allow the entry and the exit of air from said protection element (1), said filtering group (2) comprising a filter body (4) housing a filter (15) for purifying the entering or leaving air and in fluidic connection with the inside of said protection element (1) by means of an access made in said protection element (1) distinct from said mouth, said filter body (4) having a first opening for drawing air from the outside and/or the expulsion of air towards the outside and a second opening for the delivery of the air into and/or the withdrawal of air from said protection element (1).
