Description

Fine dust mask for pets {FINE DUST MASK FOR PET ANIMALS}

The present invention relates to a fine dust mask for companion animals. More specifically, it relates to a fine dust mask for companion animals that installs a filter unit that can be attached to the mouth plug including the face portion covering the face of the companion animal.

Daily life in modern cities is always exposed to polluted air. The causes of air pollution are climate change, desertification, changes in the natural environment such as yellow dust, and artificially created fine dust such as automobile smoke and factory smoke. As the number of harmful substances in the air increases, the number of deaths from respiratory diseases is gradually increasing. Therefore, it is necessary to protect the respiratory tract from fine dust and various harmful substances. To this end, many people wear masks when going out.

Humans wear masks to protect respiratory organs from fine dust, but companion animals living with humans rarely wear masks to block fine dust.

As the number of single-person households increases, the number of households with companion animals is gradually increasing. In addition, the number of times a person who has a companion animal (hereinafter referred to as a companion) and a companion animal goes outdoors together is also increasing. There is no problem if you take a walk on a clear and sunny day, but there are problems on days when yellow dust occurs or when the concentration of fine dust is bad. In the case of a companion, a yellow dust or fine dust mask is worn, but the companion animal is exposed to yellow dust or fine dust without wearing a mask.

Meanwhile, safety management of companion animals is a social issue. Accordingly, the demand for muzzles for companion animals is increasing. The government is also enacting laws that designate the types of dogs and require the wearing of a muzzle for outdoor activities. In this situation, the number of companions who purchase muzzles for outdoor activities of companion animals is increasing.

Therefore, in order for a companion and a companion animal to do outdoor activities together, a mouth plug and a mask for filtering fine dust are required at the same time for the safety and health of the neighbors, companions, and companion animals. However, most of the conventional companion animal masks are biased toward filtering fine dust, and the conventional mouth plug has a problem that it is difficult to expect a role of filtering fine dust.

The filter part 200 is formed to correspond to the inner surface of the facial part 110 and is seated on the inner surface of the facial part, but is detachable. In the present embodiment, the filter unit 200 has a space therein and is opened on one side to be detachably coupled to the face unit 110 to protect the companion animal from external fine dust.

The mouthplug 100 is an object that blocks the mouth of a companion animal so that the companion animal cannot bite a person. As Article 12 of the Enforcement Regulations of the Animal Protection Act, the Republic of Korea has a compulsory rule that'for animals subject to registration that are classified as blind dogs, must wear a mouth plug when going out. The types of dogs that are classified as blind dogs are ``dosa dogs, American Pit Bull Terriers, American Staffshire Terriers, Staffshire Bull Terriers, Rottweilers, hybrids of these dogs, and other dogs that are likely to injure humans.'' .

The mouthplug 100 may completely cover the mouth of the companion animal (to the nose due to the body characteristics of the canine or feline). However, a combination of multiple frames made of synthetic resin or metal is common for companion animals to breathe. The mouth plug 100 may include a face portion 110 covering the nose and mouth of the companion animal by combining a plurality of frames, and a wearing member 120 for binding the companion animal and the face portion 110 to the face of the companion animal. .

The face portion 110 may be integrally formed of an elastic silicone material or may have a form in which a metallic frame is combined with a skeleton made of leather or synthetic resin.
