Description

DESCRIPTION

Filtering oral/nasal mask

TECHNICAL SECTOR

The invention, as expressed in the title of this specification, refers to a mouth or mouth/nasal protection mask, among which a filtering face mask (mouth/nose) is described that provides the function to which it is destinations, advantages and novelty features that will be described in detail later. PPE intended to protect from particles contained in the air that is breathed,

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The use of a mask to avoid infections, intoxications and as a barrier against pathogens and viruses is becoming evident in 2020/21 from the pandemic suffered. Air filtering devices are used in an environment where the air contains particles that are harmful to health. This scope includes FFP (1-2-3) masks. To achieve a good fit and seal, filtering face masks generally have a headband that extends laterally from the mask around the back of the wearer's head and neck. Masks with filters [filtering-face-pieces or ffp for its acronym in English], protect the user from particles, liquid aerosols and pathogens present in the environment, preventing them from being inhaled. Depending on the filtration efficiency, the mask is class 1, 2 or 3. The filter material is made up of a network of plastic fibers which retains the contaminant; they have an added polarity that decreases with use and humidity. Apart from other own inventions, the applicant does not know of any solution that can be considered similar to the invention since he has only found useful models that include only the diffusion of air, some of which create an air flow from the user to the around, causing a concentration of pathogenic agents around those who do not carry them, this concept/result being highly unsupportive.

This does not happen when the expulsion of air is combined with aspiration and the protected areas are dimensioned to a minimum thanks to the use of openings and/or windows and a flat or three-dimensional dispensing/aspirator framework. another achievement of the invention is to manage to maintain a high concentration of chemical preparations for disinfection or treatment and anti-pathogen ions in the areas that we are interested in protecting, since the aspiration avoids excessive dispersion and by sizing and timing in a balanced way, creating a dangerous flow is avoided. of pathogens towards the user.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The invention comprises a protective cover (1) for parts of the face or head (mouth, nose, eyes, face) as well as means for fixing and/or coupling to the user's head, including at least one window-type opening (5v) . A sealing device can be installed (by positive and/or negative air pressure), independent or that takes advantage of elements of a suction device and/or filtered air flow diffuser (which creates the screen and/or air curtain) or other elements in the mask that have a motor with a propeller, such as a fan or blower. The invention is a filtering oral/nasal mask that, having a window, allows eating, drinking, and communicating with others. The window can be symmetrical or asymmetrical and can have one or more leaves. There are models where filters are fixed by pressure (recyclable after disinfection by different approved means; TNT fabric or silver ion thread). The window opening mechanism can be manual or mechanical. The mechanical opening is activated by means of electronic elements (sensors or infrared) which, as a non-limiting example, are placed on a wristband, so the window opens when we bring our hands close to our face to eat after activating the function. (a very simple means is a pneumatic circuit with a small pressure pump in the mask combined with magnets). A timer can be included so that the window closes after a few seconds. In cloth or other fabric masks, the window closure can be by means of Velcro, or by pressure or another fixing mechanism. The mask can be reusable, part reusable and part disposable or disposable. The invention allows the combination of filters and valves and different additional devices in order to be able to adapt to a greater number of users and situations, so that breathing can be adapted to the patient/user. Having made the preceding description, we must add that the details of carrying out the exposed idea may vary, without changing its essence.

There are fabric masks that, being more flexible, can combine different functions. The mask of the invention can have any device or element installed. described in this memory and/or may have a support device where to install the devices and/or elements described that you need depending on the model to be made; It can also have an additional element, which is a body that houses parts of the invention, facilitating its distribution by distributing volume and weight. It can be a necklace, a cap, a button panel, among others. The support device may be one or more than one. In an optional form, the mask of the invention can have a nose, mouth and eyes or full face coverage.

MAIN JOINTS: (1j) are the parts that fulfill the function of coupling to the user's face, preventing air leaks from the breathing chamber to the outside and vice versa, forcing all gases to pass through filter fabric, filters or through the window opening.

PROTECTIVE COVER: (1m) fulfills the function of a chassis supporting various elements of the mask, such as a window, joints and different devices in the couplings. Couplings are protruding or incoming openings with any type of shape that can coincide with one or more inlet and outlet holes for inhaled and exhaled air (with valves or filters that are positioned in couplings by means of pressure, thread or by any type fixing.) There are couplings that can house a device. There are couplings that can be blind, intended to house another device.

PRE-FRAME: fulfills the function of joining the protective cover with the frame, it is necessary when a transition between them is needed due to the shape or characteristics of the material or design. An example is a mask with a mesh structure that is covered by a fabric of silver ions; This allows the fabric and the grille body to be joined and kept together for cleaning, since it will only be necessary to separate the frame and the window and even the main joint. The pre-frame is not represented in the drawings because they are in different models that meet the claims of this specification.

FRAME: (5) fulfills the function of joining the protective cover with the window, with the interposition of the pre-frame if it exists. The frame performs the functions of the pre-frame if it does not exist.

WINDOW: (5v) serves as an opening for different purposes, drinking, eating, connecting medical means. If there is no pre-frame or frame, the window frame exists. There may be models where the protective cover: includes up to the window frame.

Window gaskets/sashes: fulfills the function of sealing the window. It is not represented in the drawings, but there are joints that use the air pressure seal (positive or negative) that is represented in figures 13, 14 and 15.

Sheets: (5h) fulfills the function of closing and opening the window, it can have a filter sheet (5f) or a waterproof, transparent or opaque sheet (5t) or that is inseparable from the sheet and is represented by the same sheet (5h ). The whole is fixed between frames.

ELEMENTS OF THE INVENTION:

1) PROTECTIVE COVER: in an oral/nasal mask (1m) it creates with the cover element a safe breathing chamber between the mask and the user's face and adapts ergonomically to the face. Part or all of it is single-use or reusable, easy to clean because it is made of materials that can be cleaned with simple soap and water or alcohol (non-porous materials such as sanitary rubbers and silicones or biodegradable plastics and any material that has similar characteristics ) with the exception of the filter element that can be easily renewed, removing it from the encapsulation and replacing it with a new one. In an optional form, the mask, the preferred embodiment of the invention, can have a mouth, mouth/nose, mouth/eyes (with hole or transparent screens for viewing), mouth/nose/eyes or full face coverage.

2) Separator of the breathing chamber into the nasal chamber and the oral chamber: it is characterized by the fact that on the internal face of the mask, and in correspondence with the area between the nose and the mouth of the user, a partition is established (fixed or removable). ) transverse of a flexible and hygienic nature, adaptable to the physiognomy of the user's face in the intermediate area between the nose and the mouth, determining two independent chambers, an upper chamber for the nose, and a lower chamber for the mouth. The two chambers have air filter media and the separation of flows ensures that exhalation and inhalation from the nose do not mix with exhalation and inhalation from the mouth.

3) Silver wire fiber cover or similar: protects the filter element from impurities that could penetrate it if it were not encapsulated. A cover can protect the PPE if it is not used. Covers can be made from these materials to carry masks, mobile phones or other items, keeping them free of viruses and bacteria.

It is reusable since it can be cleaned with simple soap and water, except for the filter element that can be easily renewed, removing it from the encapsulation and replacing it with a new one.

4) Exhalation valve: in the event that these exhalation valves are available, this will be the preferred way of exiting the air, due to the ease and low resistance they offer.

5) Media using germicidal methods

6) Therapeutic elements for the skin.

7) Mechanical and/or electronic elements

8) Window with frame with cover: filtering or transparent. In mouth/nasal or mouth masks they allow you to drink, eat, speak and breathe normally when there is no danger of intoxication and infection; in the glasses it allows to see protected by a screen-curtain of filtered air.

9) Window with leaves: it can be filtering or transparent. It allows drinking, eating, speaking, breathing normally when there is no danger of intoxication and infection.

10) FAN: is synonymous with a propeller (3h) with an impulsion motor (3m). There is a filter (3a) to purify the air; creates suction and expulsion of air and the curtain and screen of filtered air.

VENTILATOR-BREATHING: increases the contribution of filtered air to breathe it and relieve suffocation. 2 breathing fans are usually used (with one motor each); the first introduces filtered air into the breathing chamber between (for example) the mask and the wearer's face; the second ventilator has a suction function and draws expired air with CO2 into the breathing chamber, filters it and sends it outside. In the coupling areas, portable electronic ventilation and air circulation systems, extractors, external and portable fans, with blades or bladeless ventilation technology, are installed. Another option is to be fixed in the EPI/M. It assists and refreshes breathing, extracting and introducing air and filters inhaled and exhaled air through filters. 11) Filtered air screen/curtain. The filtered air is driven by a motor with propellers, passes through ducts that reach holes and/or slots in the chassis of the diffuser device and/or filtered air flow aspirator and is expelled and diffused (open circuit) and part sucked in through other holes and/or slots in the chassis and return to the filter (closed circuit). In this circuit, the air after being filtered can be enriched with bactericidal and antiviral chemical substances or with ions that destroy pathogenic agents without being harmful to the user. The circuit may have an air intake (which does not coincide with the suction holes/slots) before the filter. The screen-air curtain can also be formed between two open circuits or an open and closed circuit. The air screen is much more resistant and the air curtain more flexible where diffusion prevails over suction or suction is zero. The Air screen is created between sides or part of sides of a zone delimited by any type of perimeter (example: window type) or between two adjoining or facing sides (with any inclination between them) that are part of a closed or open perimeter. If there is filtered exhaled air, it can be used to create a protective screen-curtain thanks to holes and/or slots that do not harm the air sucked in for inspiration.

Open circuit: (figure 4) includes air intake (3t) or holes or slots (or both) (2b), filter (3af) and motor (3am) with propellers (3ah), expulsion duct (2c) through which drives filtered air (3c) that comes out through some holes or slots (or both) (2a) of expulsion forming part of a screen / curtain (4) in a window (5v) and / or between sides (4d) of filtered air and / or creating a protection zone by diffusing it (D) around the protected element; the holes or slots (or both) for suction (2b), expulsion (2a) and air intake (3t) are in any part of the protective cover (1m), and/or support device and/or supplementary element.

Closed circuit: (figure 4) that includes screen-curtain (4) in window (5v) of filtered air between holes and/or slots (3a) for expulsion and holes and/or slots (3b) for suction; the sucked air (3d) passes through the suction ducts (2d), through the filter (3cf) thanks to the motor (3cm) with propeller (3ch) that propels it through expulsion ducts (3g) towards holes or slots (or both) (3a), [with option to air intake (2t) before the filter]. The holes or slots (or both) of suction (3b) and the holes or slots (or both) of expulsion (3a) and air intake (2t) are in any part of the protective cover (1m), and/or device support and/or supplementary element (1S).

12) Filtered air flow aspirator and/or diffuser device: consists of suction and/or air intake holes and/or slots, suction ducts, filter, motor, propeller, expulsion ducts, expulsion holes or slots, battery rechargeable, airflow valves. Everything is in a support device or supplementary element (bracelet, wristband, chain, hat, clothing, bag, etc.): it allows creating the screen-curtain of filtered air. The device is characterized by having one or more motors with one or more propellers and any combination (even "closed circuit only" or "open circuit only") between the closed and open circuits, (or part thereof) of filtered air and any distribution of holes or slots (or both) for absorption, expulsion and air intake [the latter characterized by a large one (alone or with others) and/or several smaller ones]. The function (expulsion and suction) of filtered air flow is adjustable, in some models all possible combinations are achieved (even extreme, examples: zero expulsion/maximum suction, maximum expulsion/zero suction, expulsion = aspiration). The concept of a vacuum cleaner is related to the function of protection and the function of sucking diffuse filtered air through the holes and/or expulsion slots, forming a screen-curtain of filtered air and is different from the concept of air intake, which does not pursue as first objective to protect by absorbing polluted air and forming a screen-curtain of filtered air. There may be cases that the two functions are combined by necessity of the model of the invention. Suction holes and/or slots can suck in unfiltered air from around and mix with the filtered air; It all depends on the layout and models, and as an example, suction holes can be distributed near the main joint to suck in the air that can escape through the joint with the face, allowing the pressure of the mask on the skin to be reduced and avoiding contamination. the environment.

13) Filters: they prevent harmful or toxic particles and viruses, bacteria and other pathogenic elements from affecting the user. The realization uses EPA filters and other types of TNT type filters, paper filters, fabric, cardboard, fabrics, non-woven fabric and others, even capsules that contain disinfection and filtration elements, on different substrates and/or layers The filters are mono -use or have period of use. There are even reusable filters like silver ion ones.

DISINFECTION, PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL METHODS.

Disinfection is a process whose objective is to eliminate pathogenic microorganisms from surfaces and objects. The agents that we use for this are called antiseptics, when they act on living beings, and disinfectants, when they act on inanimate objects. That is, they have the same objective but their indication

one

is different, mainly because of the toxicity that they could cause on people. These agents can also act in two different ways: killing microorganisms or inhibiting their growth. Disinfection can be achieved by different methods that we group into two: physical methods and chemical methods. Physical methods are those that use physical variables, such as temperature and ultraviolet radiation, to achieve the disinfectant effect. Within this group we include: thermal disinfection, ultraviolet radiation disinfection, ultrasound disinfection. Chemical methods are those in which we apply different chemical substances for a certain time to achieve the disinfectant effect. These methods, furthermore, can be used independently or associated with heat application processes, thus being known as thermochemical disinfection. Depending on how we apply the disinfectant or antiseptic, we have different methods: spraying, lotion, immersion,

DISINFECTION BY COLD PLASMA AT ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE::

Atmospheric pressure plasmas, and especially piezoelectric direct discharge plasma, have shown strong disinfection ability. Compared to standard disinfection and sterilization methods using 170°C pressurized hot air, 120°C pressurized hot water vapor, wet chemistry, or low pressure plasmas, cold atmospheric pressure air plasmas offer the following: advantage:

1) Treatment at atmospheric pressure allows the disinfection of objects that can be damaged by vacuum or overpressure. 2) There are no expensive vacuum or pressurized chambers and pumps. 3) No wet chemistry. 4) Deep cleaning, no residue. 5) Low operating temperature. 6) Gentle treatment of sensitive surfaces, including living tissue and open wounds. 7) Air or cheap non-toxic working gases.

8) Environmental respect.

Ultraviolet: UVC, ultraviolet light. It destroys the DNA of microorganisms and they are inactivated. The skin cannot be exposed to UVC, so it needs to be encapsulated with a strict and special measure. Example: the air passes through a capsule where the UVC deactivates viruses and bacteria.

Disinfection by silver thread fabric, washable products at 60° - 65°C, comfortable fit and great breathability; reusable product up to 100 times, it is a fabric technical with an active ingredient that neutralizes viruses and bacteria thanks to the silver ion composition of the thread with which it is made.

Chromotherapy-led. Chromotherapy makes use of colors belonging to the visible spectrum. In a simple way, we can say that each color we perceive emits a certain energy. The energy interval with which we work goes from 380 nm to approximately 750 nm of wavelength, the former belonging to violet, and the latter to red.

1. Red light: This light reaches deep into the skin. Thus, it manages to accelerate the metabolism and improves the formation of collagen. All this favors the whitening of the skin and an increase in its elasticity, helping to reduce wrinkles and making it an anti-aging treatment.

2. Blue light: blue light is really beneficial in aesthetics thanks to its anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effect. For this reason, facial chromotherapy with blue light favors the elimination of acne and a recovery of the skin, given its calming power 3. Green light: this type of light is quite similar to blue light, so it is also quite suitable for blackhead and acne removal treatments, but it is also a great anti-inflammatory and decongestant; benefits for the depigmentation of blemished skin and for skin damaged by age or the sun.

4. Yellow light: draining and rejuvenating effects. Among its aesthetic benefits are its power to illuminate and unify skin tone, reduce spots and hide wrinkles.

Benefits for the skin: 1. Relaxation: facial chromotherapy helps reduce facial rigidity thanks to the therapeutic effect of color on our body. 2. Detoxification: it achieves a bactericidal and cleansing effect on the body that makes chromotherapy the ideal treatment for reducing blemishes, acne and rosacea.

3. Biostimulation: this benefit of facial chromotherapy with LED light is what makes our skin look revitalized, rejuvenated and nourished. All this thanks to its cell renewal power and its anti-wrinkle power.

Disinfection by: 1) Aromatherapy: essential oils with antiviral, antibacterial and anti-mold properties. 2) Electricity. Tissues or materials through which it circulates

one

current that destroys pathogens. 3) Alcohol. 4) Soap.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SUPPORT DEVICE AND SUPPLEMENTARY ELEMENT. The support device is close to the mask and has a device installed that needs the mask, a clear example being the suction device and/or filtered air flow diffuser that creates a screen or air curtain that protects the mask. The shape of the support device depends on the mask and the shape of the face to which it has to be attached and the place. It usually has its own fastening means. The supplementary element is a secondary body that houses parts of the invention, facilitating its distribution and distributing volume and weight. It can be a necklace, a cap, a bracelet, a wristband, a chain, some clothes, a bag, a bag and so on; the supplementary element already has its own function and an aesthetic that makes it recognizable while the support device generally has a novel shape that depends on its function.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the figures outlined, and especially of figure 5, 6, 7 and 8, and according to the numbering adopted in it, a non-limiting example of embodiment of the mask of the invention can be observed.

The recommended mask is structured from a protective cover (1m) that is generally flat or polyhedral (in other models it could be a cup or hemispherical type) provided with fastening means (1s). The mask is joined and sealed with the face by means of the gasket (1j) that is attached to the protective cover. In said protective cover the frame (5) of a respiratory window (5v) is fixed. The leaf (5h) of the window will be equipped with a filtering material (5f) or transparent (5t), and can be foldable or non-foldable, symmetrical or asymmetrical, (other models may have another window model). For their part, the window panes can have a stable union with the body by means of magnets (1im), as shown in figures 6 and 10, without ruling out other means (velcro, pressure joints, lace)

According to figures 5 and 6, the filter of the mask corresponds to an FFP2 mask that, when opened, folds on itself, protecting the inner face that faces the skin.

In figures 7 and 8, the mask is made of surgical mask fabric and shows that the invention can be made from a single piece that can be closed by overlapping as in surgical masks or seek a better seal thanks to magnets and reusable metal sheets. pockets made for this purpose are installed.

In figures 9 and 10, the protective cover of the mask is made of a network of anti-pathogen material such as silver or copper ions, a window frame and magnetized elements (1im) are attached to it for closure and sealing. Figure 9 shows two couplings (1D) as an improved variant.

a body (9S). There is a positive pressure valve mechanism (9V) to maintain positive pressure and a positive pressure shut-off mechanism.

FIGURE 15. The manual negative pressure device is characterized in that it comprises a body (3S) that houses a joint (3J): the valve (3V) empties the air inside the joint by manual pressure, creating a force that seals a filter (3F). The manual positive pressure device is characterized in that it comprises a body (9S) that houses a gasket (9J): the valve (9V) fills the interior of the gasket with air by manual traction, creating a force that seal a filter (9F).

The invention is provided with a bracelet that opens the window mechanically or electronically such as infrared or others: when the hand approaches the mouth the window opens and when moving away it closes. The bracelet has other buttons that facilitate other functions: in particular that of keeping the window open when we speak (in particular, there may be a system of sensors that activates the opening of the window when we speak and closes it when we are silent). When the user wants to talk, he presses a button on the bracelet and it stays open. When the sliding window leaves are opened, they are inserted into a sealed compartment where they are disinfected by one or more methods such as ultraviolet led, chromotherapy led with antiviral function, silver or copper thread fabric, essential oils, medicines, steam of alcohol 70 °, electricity or others not named. In the mask there are small deposits for 70° alcohol and/or essential oils (one or two cubic centimeters since a large quantity is not needed in very small spaces). The essential oils deposit (tea tree, rosemary, etc.) It connects with the sealed compartments of the window and with the breathing chamber and towards them it can be sprayed by different means: ultrasound, mechanical/manual or electrical device or another not mentioned in this memory. This preferred mask is reusable in terms of body, window, electronic and mechanical elements and is provided with filters for one or more uses. The filters are thrown away after exhausting their time of use. Contains LED anti-run over safety lights.
