A mouth cover includes a mouth cover body that covers at least the mouth and the nostrils of a wearer, and wearing portions that are connected to the mouth cover body and allow the wearer to wear the mouth cover body. The mouth cover body includes an opening in a downward direction from a position directly facing the mouth of the wearer.

The scented filter system for a sanitary face mask is a medical device. The scented filter system for a sanitary face mask is adapted for use with a patient. The scented filter system for a sanitary face mask filters the air that flows through the nose and mouth of a patient. The scented filter system for a sanitary face mask a diffusing structure into a mask. The diffusing structure attaches to the mask. The mask filters the bulk of the air that flows through the nose and mouth of a patient. The diffusing structure: a) filters the balance of the air that flows through the nose and mouth of a patient; and, b) releases a volatile phytochemical into the air that flows through the nose and mouth of a patient.

This invention relates to filters, filter assemblies, face masks, and face mask assemblies, and methods of making same. In various aspects, the disclosed filters, filter assemblies, face masks, and face mask assemblies can be useful in, for example, preventing the transmission of air contaminants to or from a wearer. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.

The disclosure relates to a mask including a perforated exterior shell sized to cover the nose and mouth of a user and constructed of one or more fabric layers, and a removable multi-layer nonwoven fabric insert sized to cover the nose and mouth of a user and adapted for abutting contact with the exterior shell, the nonwoven fabric including a layer of a spunbond material and a layer of meltblown material adjacent to the layer of spunbond material.

A facemask includes: a mask portion shaped to substantially cover a nose and mouth of a wearer of the facemask, the mask portion formed of a flexible material; a nose bridge extending substantially across a width of an upper edge of the mask portion and including a stiff deformable portion located on the nose bridge, wherein the stiff deformable portion is deformable to contour to a shape of a face of the wearer while substantially retaining the shape during use of the facemask; a first ear loop located along a first side of the mask portion; and a second ear loop located along a second side of the mark portion.

A face mask includes a mask body portion and left and right ear loop portions. The left and right ear loop portions each include a base portion and an ear-loop body portion. The base portion is a strap extending in the up-down direction and bonded to the mask body portion. The ear-loop body portion has both end portions bonded to both end portions of the base portion. The base portion includes a bonding zone that includes an upper-end bonding zone located at the upper end and a lower-end bonding zone located at the lower end. The upper-end bonding zone of the left ear loop portion has a right end portion that tilts toward the left as it approaches the upper side. The lower-end bonding zone of the left ear loop portion has a right end portion that tilts toward the left as it approaches the lower side.

A customizable mask system can include a facemask, such as a filtering facepiece respirator, that has a first set of fastening elements integrated into an internal surface of the facemask. The system can also include a customizable mask band adapted to cover at least a portion of an external surface of the facemask. The mask band can have one or more attachment portions positioned on the mask band in locations that correspond to positions of the first set of fastening elements on the facemask and a second set of fastening elements integrated into the attachment portions. The attachment portions of the mask band can wrap around side edges of the external surface of the facemask such that the second set of fastening elements mate with the first set of fastening elements.

A face mask including shape memory materials to improve fit to the face and/or create a cavity in front of the mouth to facilitate breathing.

A wash-durable and reusable respiratory face mask for filtering air comprising a face part configured to cover at least the nose and the mouth of a head of a user includes two substantially symmetrical regions, where each region includes a top edge configured to form a trajectory which runs, when the mask is worn by the user, from the bridge of the nose of the head towards an ear of the head. The trajectory includes at least two sections, the first section being configured to cover at least part of the nose when the mask is worn by the user and forming a substantially convex bend, and the second section extending from the first section toward an ear.

A present invention relates to a functional mask that prevents health problems such as skin problems and bacterial growth caused by internal moisture due to a wearer's exhaled breath by providing an improved structure having an air passage filter. The present invention discloses a functional mask comprising: a first outer layer covering the mouth and nose of the face of a wearer; a second outer layer connected to an ear string, and a filtering inner layer integrally connecting the first outer layer and the second outer layer, wherein an air passage part is formed by a folded structure of the filtering inner layer, thereby allowing an exhaled breath of the wearer to be discharged through the air passage part from the functional mask.
