Abstract

L'invention concerne une cagoule respiratoire destinée à être portée par un individu. La cagoule respiratoire comprend un corps de cagoule définissant un espace intérieur destiné à recevoir la tête de l'individu. Le corps de cagoule comprend une section de capuchon configurée pour s'ajuster par-dessus le sommet de la tête et des première et deuxième sections latérales configurées pour s'étendre le long de côtés opposés de la tête. La cagoule respiratoire comprend également un orifice de gaz couplé au corps de cagoule. La cagoule respiratoire comprend également un conduit d'écoulement d'air en communication fluidique avec l'orifice de gaz. Le conduit d'écoulement d'air s'étend à partir de l'orifice de gaz et le long de l'une des première et deuxième sections latérales. Le conduit d'écoulement d'air est doté d'une sortie positionnée à proximité d'une zone de respiration de l'espace intérieur. Le conduit d'écoulement d'air dirige l'air de l'orifice de gaz à la sortie de telle façon que l'air soit dirigé jusque dans la zone de respiration.
