Definitions

  • the present invention relates to oxygen inhaler masks with which a sound recording device is associated and which are used, in particular, by pilots of weapons aircraft.
  • the object of the present invention is to improve the masks existing to improve their acoustic characteristics.
  • an oxygen inhaler mask is proposed with sound recording device comprising a flexible cap pierced with an access respiratory and a microphone capsule placed above the access, characterized in that it comprises a horn, in that this horn is mounted in front of the capsule, with its opening facing the location where it is intended that, in the mask, come and position the pilot's mouth, and, considering this position of the mouth, in that the horn has its axis which passes substantially through the commissure of the lips and its opening which is substantially parallel to the lip plane that is to say at the plane tangent to the two lips, just in front of the mouth.
  • FIG. 1 represents, seen from the side, the face of a pilot and, pressed against this face and seen in vertical section, the flexible cap 1, in natural rubber, oxygen inhaler mask.
  • the flexible cap 1 in natural rubber, oxygen inhaler mask.
  • the rigid shell which covers the cap 1 on the side opposite the face has not been shown to simplify the drawing and because it does nothing to understand the invention.
  • the cap In relation to a horizontal plane which would pass through the commissure pilot's lips, the cap is pierced with a hole, A, 34 mm in diameter located below this plane and includes a housing, 10, for microphone capsule, located above this plane.
  • the hole A constitutes the expiratory access of the cap, it allows the mounting of an exhalation valve not shown. Respiratory access of the mask is placed on the left flank of the cap.
  • the housing 10 constitutes a kind of cavity whose walls form a first and a second outgrowth, respectively on the outer wall and on the inner wall of the cap.
  • the first one protuberance is closed while the second is pierced with a hole cylindrical.
  • a microphone capsule, 2, marketed by the company SILEC under the reference S4045, is embedded in the second protuberance where it remains in abutment on the edges of the hole cylindrical.
  • a lug 11 perpendicular to the outer wall of the cap constitutes a means of holding the cap in the shell; the lug has a mushroom shape and the cap is pressed against the internal surface of the shell with the stem of the "fungus” which passes through a hole in the shell and the head of the "mushroom” which is flattened against the outer surface of the shell.
  • This lug like the walls of the housing 10, is made of the same material as the rest of the cap.
  • the assembly according to FIG. 1 has various faults, in particular: too high sensitivity to extraneous noise, bandwidth reduced and not flat above 4 kHz, tendency to acoustic saturation when the pilot speaks aloud ....
  • a first implementation of the mask according to the invention it has been proposed to improve the acoustic functioning, while retaining the original cap.
  • a search for more efficient microphone capsules was naturally but above all the position of the capsule in the cap was redesigned, means have been implemented to concentrate useful acoustic emissions on the capsule and other means have been designed to limit the phenomena that may cause saturation of the capsule and to limit headphone noise such as noise opening and closing of intake valves and valves oxygen and expiration.
  • Figure 2 differs from Figure 1 only as regards the microphone part. Indeed the cap 1 remains unchanged but the microphone capsule is no longer embedded in the housing 10; in its place an adaptation part S partially penetrates into the housing where it is stuck; the part of room S outside the accommodation has an arm at the end of which is mounted a microphone assembly, E, with a horn C and, at the back of the horn, an acoustic chamber G whose side wall is pierced with holes.
  • the axis of the horn passes substantially through the commissure of the pilot's lips and that the opening of the horn is located in a plane substantially parallel to the labial plane i.e. the plane tangent to both lips, just in front of the mouth; the labial plane is perpendicular to the plane of the Figure 2, its trace in the plane of Figure 2 has been drawn in an axis.
  • a deflector, D constituted by a aluminum plate, is interposed between the location of the capsule 2 and access A; this plate is screwed into the cap 1 at its upper stop located a little above access A.
  • FIG. 3 A second implementation of the mask according to the invention is illustrated by Figure 3. It is no longer, here, a mask, according to art anterior, adapted according to the invention, but of a specially designed mask for the implementation of the invention.
  • FIGS. 4a, 4b show this part adaptation top view and side view, with an upper part bowl and a lower part pierced with a cylindrical hole.
  • FIG. 5a is a longitudinal view in section of the horn C with the screen F.
  • 5b is a view, also in longitudinal section of the acoustic chamber G; this figure shows a circular groove, T, which surrounds the chamber G in its front part and which serves as a housing for an O-ring, not shown; this o-ring is intended to ensure a good mechanical connection between the horn and the chamber after fitting these two parts into one another.
  • This solution allows an easy assembly-disassembly, without tools, of the horn, for the operations of maintenance.
  • the horn has an elliptical section opening, the largest of which dimension is parallel to the commissure of the user's lips
  • FIG. 5d is a view, in section, perpendicular to the axis of the horn, relative to the microphone set if this set does not have, at the base of the horn, a single microphone capsule but two capsules, 2.2 '; this is possible due to the small size of the capsules used.
  • the two capsules are mounted side by side in a space whose largest dimension is horizontal and parallel to the commissure of the user's lips.
  • the figures 5a, 5b, 5c are the same for a single microphone set capsule and for a microphone set with two capsules; he is also note that in the case of two capsules, each capsule is connected to the on-board electronics by a different pair of wires, this allows, in some applications, to have a spare capsule for the case where the capsule usually used would break down and, in other applications, to dedicate one of the two capsules to a system voice command.
  • a set microphone with two capsules adaptation piece 5 according to the figures 4a, 4b must be modified: its lower part pierced with a hole must be enlarged and the hole enlarged so that the rear part can be inserted therein of the microphone set E.
  • Deflector D has been improved: it is no longer a part practically flat but a curved piece better suited to its role acoustic screen.
  • the deflector D is seen from the side; of them figures, 6a and 6b, show the deflector again but seen respectively from above and from the side, with this second side view which is at right angles to the first and which is taken from the side of the cap 1 located below the deflector.
  • Figure 6a appear three holes for fixing the deflector by screws in the cap 1; these holes are distributed over a flat half-collar whose edge concave constitutes the convex edge of a curved part in the form of increasing.
  • Figures 7 and 8 are two block diagram representations relating respectively to a mask according to the prior art and according to the invention.
  • the signals supplied by the capsule are of a very low level and need to be amplified in a pre-amplifier before being transmitted, via a connection cable K provided with a connector J, to the electronics on board the aircraft;
  • the connector used for pilot masks is a releasable connector in the sense that the two complementary sockets, one male, the other female, which compose it, separate in case of strong traction on the connection cable.
  • the present invention is not limited to the examples described but concerns all inhaler masks fitted with a device microphone with horn whose opening is placed in front of the mouth of the pilot.
