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).

Protective breathing apparatus incorporates a powered air pump which introduces potentially contaminated air from the atmosphere to the ‘process chamber’. The process chamber are composed of a filter and disinfectant solution such as soap, alcohol by adding the solution mixed with the contaminated air passes through the filter to catch a virus in the inlet air to separate the processed air and solution. Furthermore the processed air can be heated and/or be exposed to UV light, the air is then forced to pass through a disinfectant into a centrifuge. The centrifuge then spins the disinfected air forcing the air through a filter, the air then passes a mechanical filter resulting in purified air that flows through conduit means into a transparent plastic breathing hood containing the wearer's head. The hood is secured by a neck band around the wearer's neck. Newly purified air in the breathing hood is distributed and circulated throughout the hood's interior, the current of air holds the hood out of contact with the wearer's head. After the purified air has been inhaled and exhaled by the wearer, it is expelled through an exhaust port in the breathing hood. The exhaled air has potential to be contaminated. The exhaust air travels through conduit means back to the process chamber, this redirected exhaust air is purified before its release back into the atmosphere so no contaminates are expelled into the atmosphere. Optional provision is made for adjusting the temperature of the newly purified air for optimal user comfort, and for a plurality of breathing hoods to be supplied by a single air purifying device.

The above device can be stationary without the breathing hood. Similar to a dust cleaner, but it can kill the virus.

The invention relates to a clothing element (10) comprising a wearing portion (11) for wearing the clothing element (10) in a wearing position (I) by a wearer (1), and an emission unit (12) for emitting electromagnetic radiation (200) for killing organic structures (2), in particular in the form of pathogens and/or insects. Furthermore, the invention relates to a system (5) comprising a clothing element (10) and an external apparatus (4), and to a method (100) for protecting a body region (202) of a wearer (1).

An exposure-indicating supplied air respirator system comprises a head top, a clean air supply source and a portable personal communication hub. The head top comprises a visor that is sized to fit over at least a user's nose and mouth, a position sensor secured to the head top, and a head top communication module. The clean air supply source is connected to the head top that supplies clean air to the interior of the head top. The position sensor detects whether the visor is in a closed position or in an open position and the head top communication module communicates the visor position to the personal communication hub. If the personal communication hub receives a signal indicating the presence of a hazard, and if the visor is in an open position, an alert is generated.

A personal protection system for providing a sterile barrier around medical/surgical personnel. The system may include a head unit over which surgical garment such as a hood or a toga may be suspended over. The surgical garment may include a sterile material and a shield configured to be disposed in front of the wearers face when disposed over the head unit. The shield may comprise an anti-reflective coating configured to reduce the glare observed by the individual through said shield. The head unit may comprises a light assembly that is disposed on the wearers side of the surgical garment, and an inner surface of said surgical garment may comprise a light reflective material configured to reduce the amount of light emitted from said light assembly that is reflected back toward the individual.
