- the second comprises smaller loops. When the two are pressed together the hooks catch in the loops and the two pieces fasten or bind temporarily. When separated, by pulling or peeling the two surfaces apart, the strips make a distinctive “ripping” sound.
- mask - a protective covering for the nose and mouth and/or nose and eyes of a wearer.
- [125] may - is allowed and/or permitted to, in at least some embodiments.
- method - a process, procedure, and/or collection of related activities for accomplishing something.
- [135] provide - to furnish, supply, give, and/or make available.
- [139] receive - to get, take, acquire, and/or obtain.
- seatback - a portion of a seat that supports a back of a user.
- shield - a device that blocks flow of air and particulates entrained in air from a predetermined direction.
- [150] store - to place, hold, and/or retain.
- system a collection of mechanisms, devices, machines, articles of manufacture, processes, data, and/or instructions, the collection designed to perform one or more specific functions.
- [155] transmit - to send, provide, furnish, and/or supply.
- tube - a hose of any shape through which air can flow.
- user - a person that uses a device and/or system.
- valve - a device by which the flow of a fluid is started, stopped, and/or regulated by a movable part that opens, shuts, or partially obstructs one or more ports or passageways.
- vent - a device that channels pressurized air.
- any elements can be integrated, segregated, and/or duplicated
- any activity can be repeated, any activity can be performed by multiple entities, and/or any activity can be performed in multiple jurisdictions;

Abstract
Certains modes de réalisation donnés à titre d'exemple peuvent fournir un système comprenant un système de régulation d'environnement d'un aéronef, une pluralité d'évents d'aération de plafond, un tube, une vanne d'écoulement d'air et un masque. Le système de régulation d'environnement est construit pour fournir de l'air sous pression et filtré à une cabine de l'avion. Chacun de la pluralité d'évents d'aération est à proximité de, et associé à, un siège à bord de l'aéronef.
