Description

The present invention relates to a simple mask in which a towel cloth made of double gauze and a ring-shaped elastic band for the mask are set as one set.

Recently, the demand for masks is increasing from the viewpoint of preventing influenza and hay fever, especially so-called "new coronavirus (COVID-19)" infection. Most of the currently used masks are single-use masks, and supply cannot keep up with demand, making it difficult to obtain masks, especially on the verge of medical staff being infected and causing medical collapse. In the end, a social situation has emerged in which there is a fear of an outbreak of infection.

In the first place, the non-woven fabric mask is not suitable for washing and repeated use, and the repeated use without washing is a sanitary problem. On the other hand, the gauze mask can be washed and used repeatedly, but it takes time and labor to manufacture it.
Known masks include, for example, Patent Document 1.

In view of the recent shortage of masks, the present invention is to provide a simple mask having a compatibility function that can be easily used as a mask when needed and can also be used as a hand towel when the mask is not needed. In general, handkerchief fabrics and towel fabrics are known as the fabrics used for conventionally known simple masks, but when these are diverted to masks, the material feels strong against soft facial skin. (EN) Provided is a simple mask which can be felt at once, has a strong feeling of being worn, and has a problem of breathability and a feeling of weight, which can solve all at once.

Means for solving the above problems, that is, the structure of the present invention, is a substantially rectangular mask main body formed by folding a substantially square double gauze towel fabric, and is arranged on the right side and left side of the mask main body, respectively. The ear hooking portion is formed in a valley fold formed by bending the end portion of the mask main body portion toward the central portion. It is a mask.

In view of the above problems of the prior art, the present invention can provide a simple mask which can be easily provided with a form as a mask and can be used as a hand towel when the mask is not needed.

In addition, the base material of the simple mask of the present invention uses a double gauze towel fabric that is soft, water-absorbent and breathable, and has a good feel to the touch. Since it has no texture and is soft on the mouth and nose, and the material is flexible, it makes good contact with the entire face, and by doing this, it is possible to suppress the formation of gaps in the cheeks, jaws, and bridge of the nose, and to prevent the spread of viruses and bacteria. Although it can prevent invasion and has an excellent feeling of wearing, it has a double gauze tissue, so even if you cough or sneeze, it is possible to almost prevent the virus and the like from jumping out. If the mask is not used as a mask, it can be used as a towel or a handkerchief by removing the ring-shaped rubber cord for the mask and opening the folded state.
In addition, it can be reused many times by washing and can be used continuously by spraying a disinfectant solution. When cotton fiber is used as the material, the mask can be boiled and sterilized directly.

It is the schematic which looked at the simple mask of this invention from the oral surface side. It is a figure which shows the double gauze towel textile used for the simple mask of this invention. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a state in which ring-shaped rubber cords for a mask are passed through both ends of a double-folded towel fabric that is folded in three and is rectangular from the state of FIG. 2 and then folded along a dotted line.

Aspects will be described below based on Examples.

Since the double gauze towel fabric used in the present invention is a towel fabric woven with a double gauze structure, it has good breathability, excellent water absorption, is light and soft, and is most suitable for use as a mask. In particular, there is no sensation of gore which conventional simple masks have, and a soft and close contact with the mouth and nose with no gap provides an excellent sensation.

The double gauze towel fabric of the present invention can be woven using a towel loom. It is also possible to form a desired design pattern using the yarn-dyed yarn.

As the material used for the double gauze towel fabric of the present invention, cotton fiber is particularly preferable in view of the purpose and use of the device. By using cotton fiber, it is possible to sterilize it by boiling, which is the best advantage for infection prevention masks.

As a material used for the double gauze towel fabric of the present invention, by using ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber for both warp and weft, it has a cooling effect of 2 to 4°C more than ordinary masks, and it can be worn coolly. It is possible to prevent a person from sliding down to use the nostril entrance (so-called nostril) and use it, and it is most suitable as a mask from spring to early summer.

In making the mask of the present invention, first, a double gauze towel fabric 2 having a substantially square handkerchief size is folded in three along a folding line 6a as shown in FIG.

The handkerchief referred to in the present invention has a substantially square shape, and the length of one side is not particularly limited, but a small handkerchief has a length of about 20 cm to a large length of about 45 cm, and preferably has a length of about 35 cm. It can be prepared separately for adults and children.

As shown in FIG. 3, a ring-shaped elastic cord 4 as an ear hook is formed at a valley fold portion formed by folding the left and right ends of the double-gauze towel fabric (mask body portion 5) formed into a substantially rectangular shape by tri-folding as shown in FIG. The double-sided gauze towel woven fabric having a rectangular shape is bent inward toward the center along the folding line 6b.

When the three-fold double gauze towel fabric is folded with its both ends facing toward the center, the two ends may be overlapped with each other, contacted with each other, or separated from each other. This may be appropriately adjusted according to the size of the mouth to be attached as a mask.

Two or three types of ring-shaped elastic cords for masks can be prepared for adults and children, but if necessary, use a simple cord-shaped elastic cord that is not ring-shaped and Depending on the size, it can be used as a ring by adjusting the length so that it is neither loose nor tight. In this case, adjust the knot so that it is on the inner side of the fold line.

Bring the finished mask in this way to your mouth, put the rubber cord on your ear, and put it on.

The mask of the present invention can be used as a highly functional infection-preventing mask by sandwiching a wet tissue, a disinfecting tissue, or a filter for coffee inside the superposed double gauze towel fabric.
