Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the general field of protection of human beings. It aims more precisely at a device for protecting the respiratory tract and at least part of the face.
  • these masks are generally disposable and not reusable.
  • staff are tempted to reuse their masks, which represents a significant risk of transmission of infectious diseases.
  • some of these so-called disposable masks are difficult to recycle.
  • the document FR 2,182,700 discloses a device for protection against projections of the respiratory tract and at least part of a user's face comprising a single flexible sheet, made of a material impermeable to said projections and defining an overall rectangle or square strip, the strip of the sheet being shaped to cover at least the nose and the mouth of the user, the upper edge of said strip resting on the top of the nose.
  • the aim of the present invention is therefore to propose a device for protection against projections of the respiratory tract and at least part of the face of an individual intended in particular for nursing staff, said device being effective, easy to implement and to recycle, and inexpensive, its manufacture requiring only a single operation.
  • a device for protection against projections of the respiratory tract and at least part of the face of a user, remarkable in that it comprises a single flexible sheet, made of an impermeable material.
  • said projections and defining a strip in the overall shape of a rectangle or square and at least two first strips each coming from one of the ends of the upper edge of said strip, the strip of the sheet being shaped to cover at least the nose and the mouth of the user, the upper edge of said strip coming to rest on the top of the nose or on the forehead, the first two straps being arranged to be tied together at the back of the user's head passing through the -above the ears of the latter.
  • the sheet is advantageously made of a transparent material.
  • the strip is shaped to be transparent at least in line with the user's eyes, when said protective device is worn by the latter.
  • the sheet is made of polyvinyl chloride.
  • the protective device comprises two second straps each coming from one of the ends of the lower edge or one of the side edges of said strip.
  • the sheet is advantageously cut in a single operation to define the strip and the first two strips or to define the strip and the first two strips and the two second strips.
  • the sheet has additional generally round cutouts in the mechanically weakest and/or most stressed areas.
  • Said protective device 1 against projections from the respiratory tract and at least part of a user's face.
  • Said protective device 1 comprises a single sheet 2 defining a strip 3 in the overall shape of a rectangle or square and at least two first strips 4A, 4B each coming from one of the ends of the upper edge 31 of said strip 3.
  • Upper or lower here means elements or parts of elements of the protective device, according to the invention, located respectively at the top or bottom of the latter, when it is worn normally by the user.
  • strip 3 could be of any shape other than rectangular or square, according to embodiments which are not covered by claims 1 to 7.
  • the strip 3 of the sheet 2 is shaped to cover at least the nose and the mouth of the user, the upper edge 31 of said strip 3 coming to rest on the top of the nose, and the first two straps 4A, 4B are arranged to be tied together at the back of the user's head, passing over the latter's ears.
  • the sheet 2 is cut in a single operation to define the strip 3 and the first two strips 4A, 4B in the shape of an L.
  • This operating mode which requires no addition of material, no welding or gluing between two elements or part of elements, is particularly simple and quick, and therefore inexpensive.
  • additional generally round cutouts 21 are advantageously made on sheet 2 to said areas.
  • the protection device 1' is similar to the protection device 1 previously described and comprises a sheet 2' which is flexible and impermeable to projections, the flat cutout of which is shown in the Figure 3 , and defining a strip 3' in the overall shape of a rectangle or square and two first strips 4A', 4B' each coming from one of the ends of the upper edge 31' of said strip 3'.
  • the protective device 1' further comprises two second straps 5A', 5B' each coming from one of the ends of the lower edge 32' of said strip 3'.
  • the strip 3' of the sheet 2' is shaped to cover at least the nose and the mouth of the user, the upper edge 31' of said strip 3' resting on the top of the nose, the first two straps 4A', 4B' are arranged to be tied together at the back of the user's head passing over the ears of the latter, and the two second straps 5A', 5B' are arranged to be tied together at the back of the neck of said user.
  • the two second straps 5A', 5B' can also be tied together under the user's chin.
  • the tying of said two second straps 5A', 5B' under the chin makes it possible to better apply said protective device 1' to the face of said user and to limit the entry of projections, particularly at the level of the top of the protective device 1' and the cheeks. of the user.
  • additional generally round cutouts 21' are advantageously made on the sheet 2' in said zones. For the same reasons, we can also provide roundings, not shown in all corners.
  • the additional cutouts 21, 21' can be replaced by welding points.
  • this configuration requires adding an operation to the manufacturing of the protection device 1, 1' and will therefore increase its unit cost.
  • the protection device 11 is similar to the protection device 1 previously described and comprises a flexible sheet 12 which is impermeable to projections defining a strip 13 in the overall shape of a rectangle or square and two first strips 14 each coming from one of the ends of the upper edge 131 of said strip 13.
  • the protective device 11 differs from the protective device 1 in that the strip 13 of the sheet 12 is shaped to cover at least the nose and the mouth of the user and a large part of the face of this last, the upper edge 131 of said strip 13 then coming to rest on the forehead of the user, and the two first straps 14 are arranged to be tied together at the back of the head of said user while passing above the ears of this last.
  • the strip 13 of the protective device 11 is shaped to be transparent at least in line with the user's eyes, when said protective device 11 is worn. by the latter.
  • the sheet 12 is made of a transparent material such as, preferably, polyvinyl chloride for the same reasons previously described, the strip 13 of the protective device 11 then being entirely transparent.
  • the sheet 12 is cut in a single operation to define the strip 13 and the first two strips 14 in the shape, for example, of an L.
  • This operating mode which does not require any addition of material, no welding or bonding between two elements or part of elements, is particularly simple and quick, and therefore inexpensive.
  • the protection device 11' is similar to the protection device 11 previously described and comprises a sheet 12' which is flexible and impervious to projections, the flat cutout of which is shown in the Figure 5 , and defining a strip 13' in the overall shape of a partly transparent rectangle or square and two first strips 14A', 14B' each coming from one of the ends of the upper edge 131' of said strip 13'.
  • the protective device 11' further comprises two second straps 15A', 15B' each coming from one of the side edges of the strip 13', said side edges connecting together the lower edges 132' and upper 131' of said strip 13'.
  • the two second strips 15A', 15B' could also each come from one of the ends of the lower edge 132' of said strip 13'.
  • the strip 13' of the sheet 12' is shaped to cover at least the nose and mouth of the user and a large part of the face of the latter, the edge upper 131' of said strip 13' coming to rest on the user's forehead, the first two straps 14A', 14B' are arranged to be tied together at the back of the user's head passing over the above the ears of the latter, and the two second straps 15A', 15B' are arranged to be tied together at the back of the neck of said user.
  • additional generally round cutouts 121' are advantageously made on the sheet 12' in said zones. For the same reasons, we can also provide roundings, not shown in all corners.
  • each first strap 4A', 14A', 4B', 14B' can be tied with the second strap 5A', 15A', 5B', 15B' located on the side of the same lateral edge of the band 3', 13' around one of the user's ears.
  • the first two straps 4A, 4B, 4A', 4B', 14, 14A', 14B' of the protection device 1, 1', 11, 11' could also each come from one of the side edges of the strip 3, 3', 13, 13'.
  • the protection device 1, 1' may include a sheet 2, 2' made of a transparent material, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
  • the configuration of the protective device 1, 1', 11, 11' according to the invention with two or four straps makes it possible to adapt said protective device 1, 1', 11, 11' to the morphology of the face of the user while guaranteeing its perfect placement on said face.
