Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a mask stopper that prevents a mask from slipping down, even if mask strings are held at the nape, to prevent a case in which when the mask (11) is held by the mask strings (12) of both ends at the nape, installation positions of the strings are lowered further than the conventional usage of hooking over ears, and thereby force (F1) causing a mask body to fall from the face in the lower direction and force (F7) causing a stopping part to fall in the lower direction are applied.SOLUTION: A mask stopper (1) includes a base part (2) and pairs of upper and lower hooks (3, 4, 5, 6) provided at both ends of the base part, respectively. Both of a virtual line (A) passing the left upper hook (3) and the left lower hook (5) and a virtual line (B) passing the right upper hook (4) and the right lower hook (6) are obliquely interlinked to a virtual line (C) passing left lower hook (5) and the right lower hook (6).

Description

  The present invention relates to microtia or wearing a mask for a person without an ear.

Patent invention 1 and Patent document 2 are known as inventions that stop the string portion of the mask at the back of the head. Although it is a hook type, both of them are inventions that stop at the back of the head through the string above and below the ear, and there is no problem that the mask falls by passing the mask string above and below the ear. For this reason, the left and right mask strings are vertically attached by hooks. In particular, in the case of women, the mask string fixing tool is caught by long hair and is difficult to use, and there is a problem in stopping the mask string at the back of the head.
There is an invention of Patent Document 3 in which the string portion of the mask is stopped by the back of the head or the neck. In this invention, the problem that the mask is about to fall when it is stopped at the neck is not solved, and there is a problem that the mask string is not subjected to force freely in the method of stopping the mask string by folding back with a button type. is there.

As shown in FIG. 10, when the mask string (12) at the both ends is stopped at the neck of the mask (11), the attachment position of the string is lower than the conventional method of stopping at the ear or occipital region, and the stopper part falls down. Since a force (F7) to be applied is applied, the mask itself is applied with a force (F1) that attempts to drop the mask itself downward from the face.
The problem to be solved is that even when the mask string (12) is stopped by the neck, the force (F1) to drop is reduced to make it easier to use.

 The mask stopper according to the present invention is a stopper having a base and a pair of upper and lower hooks provided at both ends of the base, respectively, an imaginary line (A) passing through the upper left hook and the lower left hook, and the upper right hook and the lower right hook. The imaginary line (B) passing through the hook is oblique to the imaginary line (C) passing through the lower left hook and the lower right hook.

The mask stopper according to the present invention is characterized in that the oblique angles (α, β) are 10 degrees to 60 degrees.

The mask stopper according to the present invention is characterized in that the middle portion of the base is swollen.

The mask stopper according to the present invention is characterized in that a protrusion is provided in the vertical direction of the hook.

When the mask stopper of the present invention is used to mount the mask on the neck, the force with which the mask is about to fall is reduced to facilitate use.
In the present invention, when a mask is worn with a neck using a mask stopper, even a person who is difficult to use the mask due to microtia and ear shape can easily use the mask.

The direction of the force applied to the mask body (11), the mask string (12) and the mask stopper (F2, F3, F4, F5, F6) when the mask string is stopped at the neck by using the mask stopper (1). FIG. The explanatory view equipped with using mask stopper (1), when using glasses (60) and a mask (11) together. The front view which showed the modification of the mask stopper. The front view which showed the other modification of the mask stopper. The front view which showed the other modification of the mask stopper. Explanatory drawing which showed from the side the direction (F1, F7) of the force added to a mask when it is assumed that the mask was stopped by the neck.

As shown in FIG. 1, the mask stopper (1) of the present embodiment is provided with a base (2) and a pair of upper and lower hooks (3, 4, 5, 6) on both ends thereof.
That is, the upper left hook (3) is at the upper left of the base (2), the upper right hook (4) is at the upper right of the base (2), the lower left hook (5) is at the lower left of the base (2), and the right of the base (2) is A lower right hook (6) is integrally provided below.
Then, as shown in FIG. 2, a virtual line (A) passing through the center of the upper left hook (3) and the lower left hook (5), and a virtual line passing through the center of the lower left hook (5) and the lower right hook (6). (C) is crossed. Further, an imaginary line (B) passing through the center of the upper right hook (4) and the center of the lower right hook (6) and an imaginary line (C) passing through the center of the lower left hook (5) and the center of the lower right hook (6) are also obliquely crossed. doing. In the present embodiment, the oblique angle (α, β) is 50 degrees.
Moreover, as shown in FIG. 1, the middle part of the base part (2) swells up and down.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, when the mask is mounted on the mask stopper (1), the mask string (7, 8, 9, 10) has a hook (5) point (P1) on the left side and a hook ( 6) Since the mask string bends at the most acute angle at the point (P2), these two points (P1) and (P2) become the stopper portion where the load is applied most to the mask string, and from the mask string (7, 8) The force (F2) is dispersed into a force (F3) on the mask lower string (9, 10) and an upward force (F4) applied to the mask stopper. At this time, the force (F3) on the mask lower string is in a very weak state.
As shown in FIG. 5, when the force (F5) in the face direction is applied to the mask body (11), the mask is difficult to drop.
Since the hook type structure is adopted, the force (F2, F3, F4, F5) to the mask string is transmitted smoothly.
Also, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, the middle part of the base (2) is inflated up and down, so that the area of the part that comes in contact with the neck is increased, and the mask stopper (1) has a force to turn over. (F6) is suppressed and stable mounting becomes possible.
Furthermore, the effect which suppresses the force (F6) which tries to turn over also in the upper-lower-end part of a hook (3, 4, 5, 6) can be acquired.
Even when a mask is used for a long time, it stops at the neck, so there is no burden on the ear.
As shown in FIG. 6, when the mask stopper (1) is used when the mask and the glasses (60) are used together, the burden on the ear is the same as that when the glasses are used alone.
Moreover, the accident that the glasses are removed when the mask is removed is eliminated.
Since the mask is pulled and stopped, adhesion to the face is improved and bacteria and pollen are less likely to enter the mask.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be implemented in various modifications.
For example, when the angles (α, β) shown in FIG. 2 are from 10 degrees to 60 degrees, the effect of the stopper described above can be obtained.
When the angle is 10 degrees or less, the angle at the points (P1, P2) is too acute, so that the load on the mask string (7, 8, 9, 10) is excessive and hinders the dispersion of force.
When the angle is 60 degrees or more, the angle at the point (P1, P2) is not an acute angle, the load on the mask string (7, 8, 9, 10) is weakened, and the stopper effect is also weakened.
Moreover, you may change the distance between right-and-left hooks by changing the length of a base part (2) like the mask stopper (30) shown in FIG.
Further, the number of the left and right hooks (13.14.15.16) may be any number of structures such as the mask stopper (40) shown in FIG. In this case, the length of mask string attachment can be adjusted.
Further, the outer shape of the hooks (3, 4, 5, 6) as in the mask stopper (50) shown in FIG. 9 may be any shape such as a design that emphasizes fashion.
As in the mask stopper (50), protrusions (17.18.19.20) may be provided at the upper and lower portions of the hooks (3, 4, 5, 6). In this case, the effect of suppressing the force (F6) that the mask stopper shown in FIG.
In addition, regarding the material and thickness, any material may be used.
