Description

Functional mask with mineral powder coating filter

The present invention relates to a functional mask, which separates the areas of inhalation and exhalation, and is equipped with a Korean paper or nonwoven filter coated with mineral fine powder according to each area, and a replaceable filter coated with fine mineral powder. It's about the mask.

Due to the recent increase in yellow dust and fine dust, and the spread of infectious diseases caused by viruses, a shortage of disposable masks is occurring not only in Korea but also in many countries.

Most of the conventional masks cause bacterial growth and secondary contamination due to moisture coming out of the nose or mouth or the touch of contaminated hands. There is a problem of increasing pollution.

In particular, a general mask has a limit in taking more comfortable air because inhalation and exhalation are mixed in the same space.

In addition, when you sneeze or cough through your mouth, as shown in FIG. 1, strong pressure is generated, so even when you wear a mask, viruses, etc. There is also a problem that you can inhale through your nose.

Looking at the mask-related literature for suppressing this phenomenon, a "functional mask" (Korean Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-0025908, Patent Document 1) has a blocking film installed inside the mask to prevent air flow from the nose and Attempts to split the airflow have been published.

However, in the case of Patent Document 1, although the air flow generated from the nose and mouth inside the mask can be blocked from each other, it is difficult to achieve this from the outside of the mask. There is still the problem of being able to re-enter the nose or mouth through the mask body from the outside.

Another related technology, "functional mask" (Korean Utility Model Publication No. 20-2011-0002677, Patent Document 2) is characterized in that a separate check valve is installed for mouth breathing.

However, such a configuration is undesirable for single use or repeated use because the check valve is prone to contamination.

Hereinafter, a functional mask equipped with a replaceable filter coated with the mineral fine powder of the present invention will be described in detail.

The functional mask of the present invention is largely configured to include a main body 10 , a nose filter 20 , and an mouth filter 30 .

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the main body 10, which is a component of the present invention, has an upper opening 11 formed at a position corresponding to the wearer's nose, and a wearer under the upper opening 11 A lower opening 12 is formed at a position corresponding to the mouth part.

In addition, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 , the upper part of the upper opening 11 and the lower opening 12 is provided with a cover part 13 that protrudes forward while forming an integral body with the main body 10 .

The cover part 13 prevents foreign substances such as rain streams from flowing into the upper opening 11 or the lower opening 12 from the outside of the mask.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5 , the inner peripheral surface 10b of the main body 10 is formed to protrude inward along the perimeter, and a peripheral protrusion 14 made of a silicone material is provided.

In addition, the inner peripheral surface 10b of the main body 10 extends in the transverse direction between the upper opening 11 and the lower opening 12 and is positioned between the wearer's nose and mouth, and the air flow through the nose and the mouth An intermediate blocking portion 15 is provided so as to block the flow of air from each other and protrude inward to contact the wearer's skin.

It is preferable that the intermediate blocking part 15 is made of a silicone material having good adhesion to the face and a good feel.

In addition, it protrudes slightly in the direction of the face and adheres to the face to maintain the basic shape of the mask to some extent when worn. It is made to prevent viruses and bacteria caused by exhaled breath, sneezing and coughing, which are highly polluted, from mixing with the inhaled breath.

In addition, the filter fastening part 16 is installed on the inner peripheral surface 10b of the main body 10 .

The filter fastening part 16 is detachably coupled to the nose filter 20 and the mouth filter 30 and the main body 10, and the filter fastening with the circumference of the nose filter 20 and the mouth filter 30 below. The unit 16 may be composed of a pair of male and female Velcro tapes, a magnetic bar and a magnetic reaction metal, and various removable fixing means such as a button and a buttonhole.

The material of the body 10 may be made of various materials such as cloth or sheet, but among them, it may be made of a polyurethane material.

Alternatively, the outer circumferential surface 10a of the main body 10 may be made of polyurethane, and the inner circumferential surface 10b may be made of a silicone material with good face adhesion and feel.

The co-filter 20, which is a component of the present invention, has an installation state as shown in FIG. 5 and a cross-sectional structure as shown in FIG. 7 .

This nose filter 20 is formed on both surfaces of a copper fiber layer (b) formed by using any one of Korean paper or non-woven fabric and copper fine powder as raw materials, and the copper fiber layer (b), and is formed with any one of Korean paper or non-woven fabric. It consists of an illite fiber layer (a) formed by using illite fine powder as a raw material, and is detachably coupled to the filter fastening part 16 formed on the main body 10 around the upper opening 11, and the upper opening 11 It is configured to filter the air passing through it.

Korean paper is a material with excellent durability, preservation, breathability, and water absorption, and nonwoven fabric is easy to form pores and thus also has excellent breathability and water absorption.

Non-woven fabric is suitable in terms of ease of manufacture and price, but Korean paper is more suitable in terms of performance.

Illite is a rare soft mica mineral that emits more than 90% of far-infrared rays and has strong antibacterial properties. It generates negative ions on its own and emits a lot of far-infrared rays beneficial to the human body, as well as adsorbing and deodorizing odors, dust, gas, and bacteria. has the function to

Copper has excellent antibacterial, antibacterial and antifungal properties.

When the wearer breathes, the breath mainly flows into the wearer's bronchus through the nose, and the external air is primarily filtered while passing through the illite fiber layer (a) on the outside, and then passing through the copper fiber layer (b). After secondary filtering of the external air, the filtering is performed tertiarily while passing through the illite fiber layer (a) again.

As a result, bacteria, yellow dust, dust, mold, and odors are sufficiently filtered during inhalation, and comfortable breathing is enhanced through the generation of far-infrared rays and oxygen.

The mouth filter 30, which is a component of the present invention, is installed as shown in FIG. 5 and has a cross-sectional structure as shown in FIG.

As can be seen from the drawings, the mouth filter 30 is formed on one surface of a copper fiber layer (b) formed using either one of Korean paper or non-woven fabric and copper fine powder as raw materials, and one surface of the copper fiber layer (b), and is made of Korean paper or It consists of a non-woven fabric and an illite fiber layer (a) formed by using illite fine powder as a raw material, and the copper fiber layer (b) is located on the inside, that is, in a portion facing the wearer's mouth, and the lower opening ( 12) attached to the peripheral body and configured to filter the air passing through the lower opening (12).

Compared to the nasal filter 20 having a triple structure, the mouth filter 30 has a double structure. When the wearer sneezes or coughs, most viruses, bacteria, etc. are discharged through the mouth. By first facing the copper fiber layer (b) to have the antibacterial, antibacterial and antifungal effect of the copper micropowder first, and then allowing it to pass through the illite fiber layer (a) on the back side quickly, negative ions and far-infrared rays beneficial to the human body It emits a lot of odor and has the effect of adsorbing and deodorizing odors, dust, gas, and even bacteria.

Moreover, the base Korean paper has durability, breathability, absorption, and waterproof effects, so that when wearing a mask, it is possible to easily discharge highly polluted air caused by exhalation, sneezing, and coughing into the space around the mouth when wearing a mask.

At this time, as shown in FIG. 9 , a copper fiber layer (b) may be additionally attached to the outside of the Illite fiber layer (a) of the mouth filter 30 .

In this case, it is possible to inhibit or sterilize the growth of external bacteria or viruses in the illite fiber layer (a) exposed to the outside due to the moisture during exhalation.

On the other hand, the particle size of the illite fine powder and copper fine powder applied to the copper fiber layer (b) and the illite fiber layer (a) is 0.1 to 15 μm, preferably 0.5 to 15 μm, and a method of applying fine powder to Korean paper can be applied by conventional techniques.

In addition, the copper fiber layer (b) and the illite fiber layer (a) may be manufactured into the nose filter 20 and the mouth filter 30 through sewing or adhesive processing in a state in which they are cut to a required size.

In the above configuration, the intermediate blocking portion 15 serves to distinguish and block the wearer's inhalation and exhalation areas, and the intermediate blocking portion 15 comes into contact with the skin of the wearer's pharyngeal region.

In this case, the end of the intermediate blocking portion 15 may apply stimulation such as stabbing the wearer's pharynx.

In addition, when the intermediate blocking part 15 is formed of a silicone material by itself, the length thereof becomes longer and becomes excessively flexible, so that the wearer's pharynx cannot be covered or the foreign body feeling can be maximized.

As a solution to this problem, the intermediate blocking part 15 is configured to extend inwardly from the lowermost cover part 13 among the cover parts 13, and is not made of a silicon material as a whole, but a cover. It is preferable to include an inner layer 15a integrally extended from the part 13 to the inside of the same material (polyurethane), and a silicone layer 15b applied to the outside of the inner layer 15a.

Once the intermediate blocking part 15 is formed to extend from the cover part 13, the section in which the intermediate blocking part 15 is extended from the cover part 13 is formed to have a certain curvature or a straight line, and the intermediate blocking part ( 15) so that the lower part naturally covers the wearer's pharynx.

In this case, the intermediate blocking portion 15 is elastically extended to the wearer's pharyngeal portion to smoothly maintain its shape.

In addition, although not shown, the upper side of the mouth filter 30 may be connected to the lower portion of the intermediate blocking portion 15 to prevent the lower portion of the intermediate blocking portion 15 from coming into direct contact with the wearer's phosphatide.

In this case, the wearer's skin does not directly contact the intermediate blocking portion 15, but the inner surface layer comes into contact with the mouth filter 30 made of the copper fiber layer (b) having antibacterial properties. It can reduce the chances of skin diseases.

The functional mask of the present invention configured as described above may be provided to the user by being contained in a packaging box, and an ampoule for moisturizing or sterilization may be packaged together in this packaging box.

That is, the wearer can enhance the filter effect by spraying the above-described nasal filter 20 and mouth filter 30 with moisturizing or sterilizing liquid contained in the ampoule.

The functional mask of the present invention configured as described above is worn on the face after the above-described nose filter 20 and mouth filter 30 are mounted on the filter fastening part 16 of the main body 10, but the outside air is adjusted with a string. Prevent inflow through the edge of the body, and wear so that the intermediate blocking portion 15 between the nose and mouth is in close contact with the face.

In addition, in use, it is preferable to breathe in through the upper opening 11 around the nose as much as possible, and breathe out through the lower opening 12 around the mouth.

In addition, after use for a certain period of time, the used nose filter 20 and mouth filter 30 are removed, replaced with a new filter, and the main body 10 is used semi-permanently.

In addition, if necessary, the mask body is washed with clean water and dried to improve hygiene, and the body can be used continuously.
