The nose protection cover 300 of the present invention is preferably made of the same material as the upper cover 100 and the lower cover 200, for example, the nose protection cover 300 is further using a fine wire, etc., It is also possible to maintain the shape of the wire or the like in a bent state.

For a more detailed description of the upper cover 100 and the lower cover 200 described above, it will be described later with reference to FIGS. 5 to 8 together.

5 is an exploded view of the upper cover according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 6 is a view showing the upper cover in a state in which the first folding area and the second folding area are folded and coupled to each other according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. It is a drawing.

As shown in FIG. 5, the upper cover 100 of the present invention is a cover that serves to cover the nose and mouth by bonding the first upper half surface 110 and the second upper half surface 130 symmetric to each other. .

In addition, the upper cover 100 of the present invention has a first folding area 111 as a portion 111 of the first upper half surface and a portion of the second upper half surface 130 are folded as shown in FIG. 5 . and a second folding region 131 .

The first folding area 111 and the second folding area 131 according to the present embodiment may serve as a blocking curtain that blocks splashes from the user or the outside. Referring to FIG. 3B , the first folding region 111 and the second upper half surface 130 formed as the first upper half surface 110 constituting the upper cover 100 is folded are formed. The second folding area 131 formed by folding along the folding line 101 may serve as a blocking curtain to cover or block the through hole 500 that can pass through the object between the lower cover 200 and the lower cover 200 .

Referring to (a) of FIG. 3 , one end of the first folding area 111 and one end of the second folding area 131 are combined with one end of the upper end of the lower cover 200 (A), and the rest The region (B) is implemented in a separate form without being separately coupled, so that a through hole 500 may be formed as shown in (b) of FIG. 3 .

The through hole 500 according to an embodiment of the present invention is not formed in the front of the mask, but is located under the lips and is provided in a structure in which objects can be vertically introduced from the downward direction of the lips. It enters in the vertical direction from the downward direction, and the user can conveniently drink water, but the through hole 500 is not visible from the outside.

As shown in FIG. 6 showing the upper cover in a state in which the first folding area 111 and the second folding area 131 are folded and coupled to each other, the first folding area 111 and the second folding area 111 bonded to each other The folding area 131 may gradually increase in area from the center toward both sides. More specifically, the central width D1 of the first folding area 111 and the second folding area 131 bonded to each other is the width D2 of one side of the first folding area 111 or the second folding area It is formed shorter than the width D2 of one side of (131).

In addition, as shown in FIG. 6 , one end of the first folding area 111 and the second folding area 131 is formed in a diagonally upward shape (A), and thus the first folding area 111 is bonded to each other. ) and the area of the second folding region 131 may be formed in a wing shape that gradually increases.

The first folding area 111 and the second folding area 131 are folded inward so as not to be exposed from the outside, and this part is designed in the shape of a wing that expands from the center of the mouth toward both ends and rises in an oblique direction to match the shape of the user's mouth. Since it is located inside, only one upper cover 100 that is folded based on the folding line 101 becomes a complete mask shape.

The mask according to the present embodiment is not a structure that spreads and wraps the mask from under the chin to the outside like a conventional mask, but a structure in which the tip line is located inside the lip just below the lip. Since the space forming this folding is provided with a structure that goes up along the tail of the mouth on both sides, it can wrap and block the droplets from the mouth and nose from directly leaking out. With this structure, natural breathing escapes, but the large pressure generated during sneezing or conversation acts on the front of the oral cavity to expand the inner surfaces of the first and second folding areas that are joined to each other, pulling the tip line and wrapping under the lips. It is a structure in which parts are rather closely attached.

7 is an exploded view of a lower cover according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to the lower cover 200 according to the present embodiment, a cut-out portion is formed at the lower center of the lower cover 200 , and a seam allowance region is formed in the cut-out portion.

The lower cover 200 is to form the shape of the lower cover 200 as shown in FIG. 3 by overlapping and bonding the cut portions in accordance with the seam allowance.

When the lower cover 200 as described above is pulled downward, the positions of the first folding area 111 and the second folding area 131 of the upper cover 100 located under the lips may be slightly lowered.

In addition, the first folding area 111 and the second folding area 131 of the upper cover 100 have the upper cover 100 above the folding line 101 so that the size of the through hole 500 can be minimized in normal times. Since it is spaced a predetermined distance from the inner surface of the , it can serve as a blocking curtain (curtain).

According to an embodiment of the present invention, even when the lower cover 200 is pulled downward, the through hole 500 formed between the lower cover 200 and the upper cover 100 is equal to the length of the upper cover 100 and the second. Since it is covered by the first folding area 111 and the second folding area 131 , the through hole 500 is not exposed when viewed from the outside.

In the mask according to this embodiment, when the lower cover 200 in contact with the chin is pulled in the downward direction of the chin according to the movement of the mouth, such as the user's mouth, the through hole 500 is not visible when viewed from the outside. , the size of the through hole 500 may be relatively large, and the lower cover 200 may return to its original position according to the movement of the oral cavity, such as when the user closes the mouth again. However, the first folding area 111 and the second folding area 131 serve as a blocking curtain, and the first folding area 111 and Most of the through hole 500 may be blocked by the second folding area 131 .

That is, according to an embodiment, the size of the through hole formed in the portion where the user's nose and mouth are located may be partially adjusted according to the user's oral movement. Although the mask of the present invention can adjust the size of the main hole according to oral movement, the through hole 500 is formed in a relatively small size even when most of the through hole 500 is usually blocked to block harmful substances from the outside. There is no problem in drinking beverages by putting a straw in it.
