Abstract

954,987. Respiratory appliances. B. F. GOODRICH CO. Sept. 7, 1960, No. 30847/60. Heading A5T. [Also in Divisions A3 and B7] Helmet.-The helmet consists of a transparent plastic visor 36c and portions 36a, 36b of dualwalled construction comprising a rubberized stockinette lining and a nylon fabric covering. An opening with a sliding clasp fastener 115 extends from one side of the back of the head, round the front of the neck to the other side of the back of the head. A rubber diaphragm 116 with a central opening 117 separates the interior of the helmet from the rest of the suit. Air supply.-The interior of the suit is inflated from a conduit 120 through a fitting 118 on the chest. A metal tube 121 also extends upwardly from the fitting 118 and through the diaphragm 116 to terminate in a nozzle 122 for directing a jet of air along the visor to prevent fogging. A check valve 123 in the diaphragm maintains the pressure balance. An air exhaust fitting 124 is provided in the lower abdominal region.
