ERGONOMIC AND ADJUSTABLE RESPIRATORY MASK ASSEMBLY WITH ELBOW ASSEMBLY
A respiratory mask assembly for delivering breathable gas to a patient includes a frame having a front surface and a rear surface adapted in use to face the patient. The frame includes a main body providing an aperture therethrough for the introduction of breathable gas into a nasal breathing cavity. An elbow assembly is swivelably coupled to the front surface of the frame. The elbow assembly includes a swivel elbow that defines an intake port and an exhaust port separated from the intake port using a baffle. The elbow assembly includes an end portion that interfaces with the aperture of the frame.
Multi-position strap anchor
This disclosure describes a multi-position strap anchor that is movable between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the strap anchor may be less accessible to attach to a strap, and in the second position, the strap anchor may be more accessible to attach to a strap.
Accessory fastener device and method
An accessory fastener device including front and back magnets for securing an accessory to a fabric item or other surface. The front and back magnets may include fabric shields covering a portion of the magnets and are configured to interface with the front and back sides of a fabric item. The accessory fastener may also include an accessory coupling configured to removably couple with the accessory. The device is used to add a plurality of accessories to fashion items, and also as a decorative means for holding and securing items in place.
Lace adjuster with interchangeable covers
A lace adjuster (14) includes an adjuster assembly (16); and a first cover (18) that is selectively attachable to the adjuster assembly (16). The first cover (18) is selectively movable between (i) an attached position, wherein the first cover (18) is attached to the adjuster assembly (16), and (ii) a detached position, wherein the first cover (18) is detached from the adjuster assembly (16). The first cover (18) can be moved between the attached position and the detached position without damaging the first cover (18) and the adjuster assembly (16). Additionally, the lace adjuster (14) can further include a second cover (18) that is alternatively, selectively attachable to the adjuster assembly (16).
Female buckling component for magnetic buckling assembly
A female buckling component for a magnetic buckling assembly. A female locking portion comprises at least one resilient arm and at least one engaging head integrally formed with the at least one resilient arm. The at least one resilient arm drives the at least one engaging head to move when the at least one resilient arm is resiliently deformed. The female buckling component also comprises an installation chamber inside a middle portion of the female buckling component, a female magnetic component installed in the installation chamber, and at least one operating component movably disposed on the female buckling component and coupled to the at least one resilient arm of the female locking portion to resiliently deform the at least one resilient arm and thereby move the at least one engaging head.
MULTI-POSITION STRAP ANCHOR
This disclosure describes a multi-position strap anchor that is movable between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the strap anchor may be less accessible to attach to a strap, and in the second position, the strap anchor may be more accessible to attach to a strap.
Battery and method of attaching same to a garment
A thin battery (100) has a central portion (110) and two end portions (120). One of the two end portions includes a positive voltage connection (121) exposed on both the top and bottom surfaces of the battery. The other one of the two end portions includes a negative voltage connection (122) exposed on both the top and bottom surfaces of the battery. Each of the end portions (120) includes a magnetic element having a north magnetic pole on one of the top or bottom surface of the battery and a south magnetic pole on the other one of the top or bottom surface of the battery. Multiple batteries may be connected to each other through magnetic attraction. The battery may be securely attached and electrically connected to a garment (1000) using positive and negative conductive surfaces/contacts (1010, 1020) on a fiber layer of the garment and a corresponding magnetic element (1050) beneath the conductive surfaces/contacts that attracts and secures the battery in place.
Magnetic button for use with a preexisting button and a preexisting button hole associated with the preexisting button of an article of clothing
A magnetic button used with a preexisting button and a preexisting button hole associated with the preexisting button of an article of clothing. The magnetic button includes a female portion and a male portion. The female portion attaches to the preexisting button of the article of clothing, and the male portion is inserted into the preexisting button hole of the article of clothing. The male portion is magnetic, while the female portion is magnetic attractive, and being so, a location position of the male portion and the female portion are selective for allowing a user to merely put the male portion and the female portion together in a comfortable location by virtue of the female portion being magnetically attractive to the male portion being magnetic.
Closure Device for Connecting Two Parts
A closure device for connecting two parts includes a first closure part which includes a first surface with an arrangement of first structure elements arranged thereon and a second closure part which includes a second surface with an arrangement of second structure elements arranged thereon. The first closure part and the second closure part are to be positioned together in such a manner that the first surface of the first closure part faces the second surface of the second closure part such that the first structure elements and the second structure elements engage in one another in such a manner that movement of the closure parts relative to one another along a load direction is blocked.
MULTI-PLY TOWEL AND HOLDER FOR THE SAME
The present apparatus includes a towel that is detachably connected to a clip and/or a marker. In various embodiments, the towel includes three layers: a first layer for cleaning, a second layer connected to the first layer, and a third layer that acts as moisture barrier between the first layer and the second layer. In some embodiments, the towel may be detachably connected to a clip via an embedded magnet, such that the towel may attach to a user's clothing for easy use.
