A respiratory protection composite facepiece is disclosed and includes a polymeric rigid facepiece body portion having a first surface and a second surface and a silicone sealing facepiece element chemically bonded at least one of the first surface or the second surface. The first and second surfaces can be opposing major surfaces. A second silicone element is chemically bonded to at least one of the first surface or the second surface. Methods of making the same are also disclosed.

The invention relates to a method for recycling respiratory protection masks comprising a plurality of layers manufactured from a single thermoplastic polymer chosen from polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polylactic acid, homopolymers and copolymers of polyamide 6 (PA6) and long-chain polyamides such as PA11 or PA12, and comprising a filtration layer made of polyvinylidene fluoride.

Interfaces for positive pressure therapy having a mask assembly, a headgear assembly and a connection port assembly are disclosed herein. The connection port assembly has a ball joint connection with the mask assembly and includes a quick release button for easily disconnecting the gases source conduit from the mask assembly. The mask assembly may include a bias flow vent that is formed separately and attached to the mask assembly. The headgear assembly encircles the rear region of the user's head and may include at least some portions that are substantially non-stretchable.

A fully automatic mask production line is disclosed, including a mask material loading device, a folding device, a nose wire loading device, a mask body forming device, a mask overturning and conveying device, an ear loop welding device and a collecting device. The mask material loading device is adjacent to the folding device, the nose wire loading device is adjacent to the folding device, a feeding end of the mask body forming device is arranged opposite to the nose wire loading device and the folding device respectively, the mask overturning and conveying device is adjacent to the mask body forming device, and the ear loop welding device and the collecting device are respectively arranged on a conveying path and a conveying tail end of the mask overturning and conveying device.

The present disclosure provides a VR face mask and a manufacturing method thereof. The VR face mask includes a mask body, and a first PU covering layer arranged on a surface of the mask body to be attached close to a human face. The mask body includes a mask bottom layer arranged away from the first PU covering layer, and a filling layer arranged between the first PU covering layer and the mask bottom layer.

One embodiment of the present invention provides a multifunctional face mask system adapted to receive a nebulizer system, enabling a user to be treated by a nebulizer medication, while simultaneously providing a hygienic barrier between the user and their external environment via at least one filter component. The present invention further provides a multifunctional face mask system that is self-supporting, thereby enabling a user to wear the mask system in a portable manner. The present invention, in other embodiments, includes the bonding between at least one filter component and its corresponding filter window, to be produced by a selective mold behind injection molding process.

Interfaces for positive pressure therapy having a mask assembly, a headgear assembly and a connection port assembly are disclosed herein. The connection port assembly has a ball joint connection with the mask assembly and includes a quick release button for easily disconnecting the gases source conduit from the mask assembly. The mask assembly may include a bias flow vent that is formed separately and attached to the mask assembly. The headgear assembly encircles the rear region of the user’s head and may include at least some portions that are substantially non-stretchable.

A respiratory apparatus may employ ultrasonic welds. The ultrasonic welding may be used to join a variety of headgear, mask and accessory components. This process may enhance comfort, fit and/or performance of the joined components and/or overall mask assembly. A component may be a single layer component such as a textile or fabric, or a composite or multiple layer component such as fabric and foam composites, or outer fabric layers and inner spacer fabrics. Further, a component may be a strap, some other headgear component, a mask component, an accessory component or the like.

A process for the production of manufactured articles in composite material comprises at least one supply phase of a plurality of layers and at least one coupling phase of the layers. The coupling phase comprises at least one step of arrangement of the layers overlapped onto each other to create at least one stratified body. The coupling phase comprises at least one step of positioning the stratified body inside a mould. The coupling phase comprises at least one firing step of the layers positioned inside the mould. The supply phase comprises at least one supply step of at least one basic layer and at least one supply step of at least one reinforcement layer.

Systems and methods for protecting a user from external contamination with a mask. Exemplary embodiments may include a mask including an open threaded portion couplable to a filter; one or more extrusions on a front of the unibody mask to mount straps to the unibody mask; wherein the mask is made of silicone, and wherein the unibody mask presses against a face such that the unibody mask seals an interior of the unibody mask from an exterior of the unibody mask.
