- RE may be 110-400
- the high elongation rate of the elastic cord members 9, 9, ... in the upper end region E1 and the lower end region E2 means that the maximum length when these regions are pulled is long. Therefore, the upper side portion 23 and the lower side portion 26 corresponding to the upper end region E1 and the lower end region E2, respectively, can be greatly stretched. To obtain an ear hook member which is long and can be used even when the distance from the mask body to the ear is long. On the other hand, it is preferable that the ear rear portion 24 corresponding to the central region M also has a certain degree of elasticity so that it can be naturally deformed. Since the wrinkles of the surface material are not formed too densely or thickly, the feeling when hitting the ear is improved. Therefore, the elastic cord members 9, 9, 9, . In addition, FIG.

- the pitch of the wrinkles of the surface material in the lateral direction D2 is small, and the wrinkles are densely formed.
- the pitch of the wrinkles in the lateral direction D2 is larger, and the wrinkles are sparsely formed. Therefore, in the example shown in FIG. 10, it is possible to provide a suitable mask for a wearer who requires a long length from the end of the mask main body in the lateral direction D2 to the ear and who desires comfort around the ear.
- FIG. 11 shows ear hooking members 20aC, 20aC (ear hooking member sheet 20C) according to still another modification.
- the basic configuration of the ear hook member 20aC shown in FIG. 11 is similar to the ear hook member 20a described with reference to FIGS.
- a plurality of elastic cord members 9, 9, ... extending D2 are provided.
- the interval (pitch) is smaller than the arrangement interval in the central region M.
- the value of (L E /L M ) can preferably be 1.1-2.

- the spacing L E may be 1-5 mm.
- the number of the elastic cord members 9, 9, ... is denser. Therefore, the tensile stress generated when these regions and the upper side portion 23 and the lower side portion 26 corresponding to these regions are pulled in the lateral direction D2 is greater than the tensile stress generated in the central region M. If the tensile stress in the upper side portion 23 and the lower side portion 26 is large, the upper side portion 23 and the lower side portion 26 can pull the mask body 10 with a greater force, so that the mask body can be held down more strongly in the direction of the face. The body can be brought into closer contact with the face.
- the central region M has a certain degree of elasticity in the lateral direction D2. It is possible to reduce discomfort around the ear when wearing. Therefore, according to the example shown in FIG. 11, it is possible to provide an ear hook member and a mask suitable for a wearer who seeks fit of the mask and comfort around the ears.

- the stretchability of the ear hook member is obtained by using a plurality of stretchable string members. Therefore, by appropriately selecting the material and thickness of the elastic string (for example, rubber thread) and/or by appropriately selecting the arrangement and elongation rate of the elastic string, the ear hook member can be arbitrarily stretched. can give gender. Therefore, it is possible to relatively easily manufacture various mask ear hook members that meet the needs of users.
- the material and thickness of the elastic string for example, rubber thread
- the stretchable cord member is provided over the entire ear hook member, and is also provided in the behind-the-ear placement portion of the ear hook member, which is placed behind the wearer's ear when the ear hook member is worn.
- the stretchable cord member is provided over the entire ear hook member, and is also provided in the behind-the-ear placement portion of the ear hook member, which is placed behind the wearer's ear when the ear hook member is worn.
- the first surface material and the second surface material are made of nonwoven fabric.
- a non-woven fabric is used as the surface material of the ear hook member, so it is possible to obtain an ear hook member that feels good on the skin.
- the elastic cord member extends in a wavy shape having amplitude in the first direction.
- the stretchable cord material arranged in a wavy pattern has higher stretchability, that is, when compared with the same tensile force, it is possible to increase the stretched length with respect to the natural state.

- the ear hook member can be worn when worn.
- the tensile stress that occurs in the upper and lower end regions when pulled can be greater than the tensile stress that occurs in the central region.
- the upper end region and the lower end region respectively correspond to the upper side portion and the lower side portion of the ear hook member that are largely pulled in the lateral direction D2 when worn.
- the behind-the-ear portion corresponding to the central region of the ear hook member also has elasticity in the lateral direction D2 so that the portion can deform along the curve of the ear. It can hurt your feelings. Therefore, since the thickness of the stretchable string material in the central region is thinner, the ear rear portion can be kept flexible.
