Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Technical Field) The present invention relates to an improvement of a conventionally known gauze mask.

(Prior Art) A gauze mask in which a gauze cloth is formed by folding (or laminating and cutting) a gauze cloth into a required rectangle, and ear hanging strings are attached to both end edges thereof is conventionally known.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) The conventional known gauze mask has an extremely simple and inexpensive function, but the gauze cloth comes into direct contact with the nostrils and lips of the wearer, so that the filtering action of the inhaled air. Is limited only to the gauze portion corresponding to the nostril, and therefore has a disadvantage that the inspiratory resistance to the inspiratory filtration action is large.

That is, if the number of layers of the gauze cloth is increased in order to increase the filtering action, there is a drawback that the intake resistance increases and breathing becomes difficult. In addition, in the case of a woman wearing lipstick, there is a disadvantage that the lipstick adheres to the gauze and the lipstick peels off, or the lipstick attached to the gauze cloth adheres to the skin around the mouth. It is an object of the present invention to provide a gauze mask that does not have such disadvantages.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The gist of the present invention is to attach ear hooks to both edges of a substantially rectangular gauze cloth laminate, and to add a required length to substantially the center of the inner surface of the gauze cloth laminate. Attach one end of a stretchable tubular cloth having the same, insert a bowl-shaped shape retainer that is isolated from the nostrils and lips of a wearer into the stretchable tubular cloth, and use the stretchable tubular cloth to form the shape retainer. This is a gauze mask, wherein the gauze mask is detachably attached.

That is, in a gauze mask formed by folding (or laminating and cutting) a conventional gauze cloth into a required rectangle and attaching ear hanging strings to both end edges thereof, a substantially central portion of the inner surface of the gauze cloth laminate is provided. A peripheral edge of one end of a stretchable tubular cloth is attached to the base, and a bowl-shaped shape retainer that is separated from a wearer's nostrils and lips is inserted into the stretchable tubular cloth to use the stretching force of the stretchable tubular cloth. To hold the shape holder.

(Embodiment) FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a mask body of a gauze mask according to the present invention in which a stretchable tubular cloth 2 for attaching a shape retainer is attached to an inner surface of a gauze cloth laminate 1 so as to surround a central portion thereof. It is. FIG. 2 is a rear view of the gauze mask shown in FIG. 1 in which a bowl-shaped (or half-shell clam-shaped) shape retainer 3 is mounted in an elastic tubular cloth 2, and FIG. FIG. 3 shows a cross-sectional view taken along line III-III of FIG. The shape retainer 3 is made of a nonwoven fabric filter material, and is removably attached to the elastic tubular cloth 2 using the elasticity of the elastic tubular cloth 2. In the peripheral part of the opening of the shape retainer made of this nonwoven fabric filter material, with the improvement of its morphological characteristics,
In order to improve the adhesion between the mask and the face, a ring-shaped shape retaining frame made of synthetic resin or rubber having appropriate elasticity is usually attached, or a hardened portion is provided by impregnation and hardening of a synthetic resin liquid. The shape retainer 3 may be formed into a net-like or cage-like body having a large number of small holes or large holes using rubber, synthetic resin, paper, or the like. In the drawing, reference numeral 4 denotes an ear strap for wearing a mask.

In the above embodiment, the shape retainer is made of a nonwoven fabric filter material having an air suction filtering action, but without using a nonwoven fabric filter material, a rubber / synthetic resin having a moderate elasticity or a paper having a moderate rigidity. As shown in FIG. 4, using a cloth or the like, the gauze laminate of the mask may be formed as a frame having a form separated from the wearer's nostrils and the face near the mouth.

In the above embodiment, the shape retainer is detachably attached to the mask body by an elastic tubular cloth, but without using the elastic tubular cloth, a gauze is formed by hooks, magic fasteners, adhesion, sewing, and the like. You may attach directly to a laminated body.

(Effects of the Invention) According to the present invention, since a bowl-shaped shape retainer is attached to the inner surface of the gauze mask, the intake resistance is small, and the filter has a sufficient filtering action, and is worn by a woman wearing lipstick. However, a gauze mask that does not peel off the lipstick or stain the area around the mouth with the lipstick attached to the mask can be provided at low cost. In addition, in the present invention, the shape retainer is inserted into the inner surface of the elastic tubular body attached to the inner surface of the gauze mask, and the shape retainer is held by the elasticity of the tubular body. Mounting and removal can be performed very easily.
