Description

Water filter mask {Mask}

The present invention relates to a water filter mask, and more particularly, to a water filter mask which is excellent in filter effect because water is used to remove contaminants in the air and can be used irrespective of the posture of a user, .

Fine dust is a fine particle dust with a particle size of 10 μm or less, which has a great effect on the human body. It has been reported that prolonged exposure to fine dust causes respiratory and cardiovascular diseases and greatly increases the mortality rate.

Generally, the mask is made of a porous material such as a fabric or a nonwoven fabric so as to cover the mouth and nose portion of the user. When the user breathes, air enters the mask through the pores of the mask, It is filtered. However, these common masks do not filter fine dust.

A mask using water as a filter member for this problem has been proposed in Patent Application No. 10-2013-01649234. Since the mask uses water as a filter member, there is an advantage that contaminants such as fine dust are effectively removed in the course of passing air through the water. However, in order to prevent the water used as the filter member from overflowing, The water is not overflowed when the user wears the mask, but when the user wears the mask and lies down or the head is turned backward, the water rides over the overflow prevention plate It has a disadvantage that it flows over to the outside.

On the other hand, when the user breathes in the mask using water as described above, air flows into the mask, flows through the water, and then flows into the nose or mouth of the user. Therefore, Relative breathing needs to be large. Therefore, there is a disadvantage that the elderly people with weak breathing power are somewhat uncomfortable to use the water-based mask.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 and 2 are a perspective view and a side sectional view showing a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 3 and 4 are side sectional views showing a used state. As shown in the drawing, the present invention includes a mask body 100 having a mounting hole 110 formed therein and an exhalation vent hole 120 through which a wearer's exhalation is exhausted, and an exhalation inlet hole 210 through which external air is introduced And a mounting hole cover 400 for covering the mounting hole 110. The mounting hole 110 is formed in the mounting hole 110 and the mounting hole 110 is formed in the mounting hole 110,

The mask body 100 is formed of a non-breathable material such as synthetic resin so as to have a size and shape covering the wearer's mouth and nose portion. As shown in the figure, the nose receiving portion 102, And a fixing band 108 for fixing to the face is connected.

Preferably, the inner surface of the mask body 100 is provided with a cloth-like fabric or coated with silicon or the like so that the wearer feels comfortable when the mask body 100 touches the wearer's face, The airtightness between the portion and the wearer's face is also improved.

In the mask body 100, a mounting hole 110 for mounting the water bottle 200 is vertically formed on the bottom surface of the nose receiving portion 102. A check valve 130 is mounted on the exhalation vent hole 120 to exhaust only the user's exhalation and prevent external air from flowing into the exhalation vent hole 120 .

The check valve 130 has a pair of circular diaphragms 132 and 134 connected by a connecting shaft 136 and one of the circular diaphragms 132 and 134 has a recessed groove 138 formed therein. In this embodiment, the concave grooves 138 are shown as being formed in pairs at positions opposite to each other. The vent hole 120 is formed to have a smaller diameter than the circular diaphragms 132 and 134 and to have a diameter that is larger than the distance that the recessed groove 138 is most distant from the connection shaft 136. The check valve 130 is formed of rubber or silicone material, and the circular diaphragms 132 and 134 are formed to have a considerably thin thickness, and are closely operated by the user's breathing, as described below. Further, such a check valve 130 is simple in construction, and there is no risk of rusting because there is no metallic part such as a spring.

The check valve 130 is inserted in the check valve 130 such that the connection shaft 136 passes through the vent hole 120. The vent hole 130 is formed in the check valve 130 so that the circular partition 132 having the recessed groove 138 is positioned inside the mask body 100. [ (120). A circular diaphragm 134 positioned outside the mask body 100 is applied to the circular diaphragm 134 located outside the mask body 100 through the concave groove 138 when the user breathe So that the exhalation vent hole 120 is opened.

On the other hand, the water bottle 200 has a tubular shape with an opened upper end. A thread is formed on the upper end peripheral surface, and on the lower side, an inflow inlet hole 210 into which external air is introduced when the user breathes is formed. The check valve 130 as described above is mounted on the inflow hole 210 so that the circular partition 132 having the concave groove 138 is located outside the water bottle 200 . Accordingly, when the user breathed into the bucket 200, a negative pressure is generated inside the bucket 200, so that the circular diaphragm 134 positioned inside the bucket 200 can be heard. As a result, the inflow inlet hole 210 is opened, 200).

At the lower end of the water bottle 200, a pair of shaft holes 204 for mounting the rotating body 300 are formed at positions opposite to each other. Preferably, the bucket 200 is designed to have a ball shape at the lower end thereof, and is divided into upper and lower portions or front and rear portions with respect to the shaft hole 204 so that the rotating body 300 can be easily mounted. It is molded into a synthetic resin.

The rotating body 300 has a plurality of blades 320 protruding from the rotating shaft 310 and is inserted into the water hole 200 so that both ends of the rotating shaft 310 are inserted into the shaft hole 204, Respectively. The rotating body 300 induces the air introduced through the inspiratory inflow hole 210 to flow into the mask body 100 more quickly through the water, and furthermore, air bubbles formed by the air are blown It acts to undifferentiate air bubbles.

The rotating body 300 is rotated by a force of air introduced through the inserting inlet hole 210. In order to rotate the rotating body 300 more smoothly, The air introduced through the inflow inlet hole 210 directly hits the blade 320 of the rotating body 300. As a result, In particular, preferably, as shown in the drawing, the rotating body 300 is horizontally positioned in parallel to the user's face, and the inflow inlet hole 210 is positioned on the user's face And is located on the side close to itself.

The mounting hole cover 400 covers the mounting hole 110 to prevent the water in the water container 200 from flowing out into the mask body 100. The mounting hole cover 400 has a side surface 402 and an upper surface 404 covering an upper portion of the side surface 402 and has an inverted cup shape. The lower end of the side surface 402 is coupled to the mounting hole 110 And protrudes into the mask body 100.

A vent hole 410 is formed in the side surface 402 of the mounting hole cover 400 so that air passing through the water in the water bottle 200 flows into the mask body 100. The vent hole 410 is located at a position opposite to the face of the user and is protruded into the mask cover 100 from the side surface 402 of the mounting hole cover 400 as shown in the figure.

The present invention having such a configuration operates as follows.

The user loads water into the water bottle 200 and screws the water into the mounting hole 110 of the mask body 100. When the user wears the mask on his / her face after wearing the mask, the breathing hole 210 of the water bottle 200 is opened by the suction force of the user breathing, 200). The air flowing into the water bottle 200 passes through the water in the water bottle 200. In this process, dust and the like contained in the air are filtered by the water. When the user exhales, the exhalation vent hole 120 is opened and the exhalation is discharged to the outside. The user substitutes the water in the water bottle 200 to prevent the water filtering effect from being deteriorated.

As air flows into the water bottle 200, air bubbles are formed in the water in the water bottle 200 and the rotating body 300 rotates due to the force of air flowing from the outside. The air passes through the water relatively quickly. Therefore, the user can comfortably breathe.

In particular, as described above, the inflow hole 210 is displaced from the rotation axis 310 of the rotating body 300 so that the air flowing into the inflow hole 210 flows into the rotating blades 310 of the rotating body 300 Even if the breathing force of the user is weak, the rotating body 300 smoothly rotates. As described above, as the rotating body 300 smoothly rotates, the air is discharged more quickly, You can breathe more comfortably. Therefore, children and elderly people with weak breathing power can use comfortably.

In addition, since the air bubbles are broken by the rotating blades 320 of the rotating body 300 and air bubbles are undifferentiated, the contact efficiency between air and water is increased, thereby improving the air filtering effect. As described above, when the water bottle 200 is formed of a transparent synthetic resin, it is visually confirmed that the rotating body 300 is rotated. The rotation of the rotating body 300 can be visually The rotation of the rotating body 300 gives the user a sense of confidence in the filtering effect of the mask.

On the other hand, the operation of the user in the lying state wearing the present invention will be described as follows. As shown in FIG. 5, when the user wears the mask, the water surface of the water contained in the water bottle 200 becomes parallel to the user's face, and the upper surface 404 of the mounting hole cover 400 It becomes orthogonal. The vent hole 410 of the mounting hole cover 400 is formed in a direction opposite to the user's face so that the water in the water container 200 is directed upward from the mounting hole cover 400 To prevent the water from flowing out from the water bottle 200.

As described above, since the user's face is in a lying state, the inspiratory inflow hole 210 may be located higher than the water surface according to the water level. In this case, There is a possibility that the introduced air does not pass through the water but is discharged directly to the vent hole 410 so that the dust is not removed. However, since the inspiratory inflow hole 210 is located on the side of the rotational axis 310 of the rotating body 300 close to the user's face, the possibility that the inspiratory inflow hole 210 is positioned higher than the surface of the user So that the air flowing into the insolation inflow hole 210 is discharged to the air vent 410 through the water in the water bottle 200.

The present invention can prevent the water from flowing out of the water bottle 200 even if the mask is worn while lying on the mask. In addition, even when the user is lying down, the air flowing into the water bottle 200 through the inflow hole 210 Is drained through the water, so that the user can drink clean air.
