Description
Decorative mask
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[000IlThe present invention relates to a mask, and more particularly to a decorative niask.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
2] Referring to FIGS. IA and lB for perspective views of a conventional decorative mask viewed at different angles, the decorative mask 100 includes a plastic mask 110 and an elastic band 120, wherein two end points 122 of the elastic band 120 are tixed at an inner lateral side Si of the plastic mask 110 SI, and a user can slip the elastic band 120 around the user's head to wear the decorative mask 100. If the user wears this decorative mask 100 for many times, the elastic band 120 will become elastically fatigue, and thus the decorative mask 100 will be damaged easily. Since the elastic band 120 is fixed onto the plastic mask 110 and cannot be removed or replaced easily, therefore, users hardly find a way to repair a damaged decorative mask 100.
3] Refernng to FIGS. 2A and 2B for a perspective view of another type of conventional decorative mask and a schematic view of a user wearing the decorative mask respectively, the decorative mask 200 includes a plastic mask 210 and a hand stick 220, wherein one of the end points 222 of the hand stick 220 is fixed onto an inner lateral side S2 of the plastic mask 210. In FIG. 2B, the user 50 can hold the hand stick 220 by a hand 52 and adjust the position of the plastic mask 210 to achieve the effect of covering the face 54 of the user 50.
SUMMARY OF THE iNVENTION
4] The primary objective of the invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a decorative mask that comprises a mask and a head-mounted member. The mask applicable for covering the face of a user includes two first fasteners installed on an inner lateral side of the mask. The head-mounted member applicable to be worn at the head of the user includes two second fasteners corresponding to the first fasteners, and the second fasteners are applicable for engaging or disengaging the first fasteners.

7] The structure and its connecting relation of the present invention will now be described in more detail hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings that show various embodiments of the invention as follows [0018]Referring to FIG. 3A for an exploded view of a decorative mask in accordance with a first preferred embodiment of the present invention, [0019] Refemng to FIGS. 3A and 3B for an exploded view of a decorative mask and a schematic view of a user wearing the decorative]y in accordance with a first preferred embodiment of the present invention respectively, the decorative mask 300 comprises a mask 310 and a head-mounted member 320.
When a user 60 wears the decorative mask 300, the head-mounted member 320 is worn on the head 62 of the user 60, so that the mask 3 10 covers the face 64 of the user 60. The mask 310 includes two first fasteners 312 disposed on an inner lateral side S3 of the mask 31 0, and the head-mounted member includes two second fasteners 322 corresponding to the first fasteners 312, wherein the second fastener 322 can be engaged or disengaged with the first fastener 312, so that the head-mounted member 320 can be combined with the mask 310, or the head-mounted member 320 can be removed from the mask 3 1 0 {O020J1n this embodiment, the first fastener 312 and the second fastener 322 are combined in a form of mother and daughter fasteners. In other words, the first fastener 3 1 2 is a mother fastener, and the corresponding second fastener 322 is a daughter fastener. If the user 60 applies a force slightly, the first fastener 312 arid the second fastener 322 will be deformed to be engaged or disengaged with each other. Therefore, the user 60 can use various types of masks 3 10 together with an appropriate head-mounted member 320 to provide different effects when the user wears the decorative mask 300.
[002 1]Since the first fastener 312 and the second fastener 322 are designed in form of mother and daughter fasteners in a circular shape, therefore the mask 310 can be rotated with respect to the head-mounted member 320, and the user 60 can flip the mask 310 upward to the top of the head to unveil the face 64 of the user 60 without removing the decorative mask 300.
2] It is noteworthy to point out that this embodiment adopts circular mother and daughter fasteners for the design of the first fastener 312 and second fastener 322, but the first fastener 312 and the second fastener 322 of the invention are not limited to such form only.
