Benefits of technology

[0005]The present invention aims at eliminating the inconveniences mentioned above.
[0007]One of the advantages of the present invention is the possibility of providing a mask capable of assuming a configuration which perfectly adapts to the face and / or to the head during use; the mask folds into sectors during use, and this folding because of corresponding cutting / punching lines creates planes which are differentiated in depth; the mask structure can also be worn without an elastic band or other additional means of support; the structure can be associated with a sheet consisting of a postcard, a card, a book or an album page, etc. (so defining a container for the mask); the structure can be associated with a sheet with a text written on it that can be recited and / or be sung when wearing the mask; the mask structure keeps its features unchanged even after long usage periods.

Problems solved by technology

This development to a basically cylindrical surface may lead to a deformation of the drawing or image reproduced on the mask which has a not very natural effect.
The presence of the elastic band may turn out to be bothersome during use.

Embodiment Construction

[0019]FIG. 1 shows a schematic plane view of a sheet in paperboard 10 with a rectangular shape. A contour 2 defining a mask structure 1 is executed on sheet 10, by punching, by laser cutting or by another suitable process. Some cuts 3 are made on the mask structure 1, also called mask 1 in the rest of the description. In the example of FIG. 1 the cuts 3 are symmetrically disposed with respect to a vertical symmetry axis x-x. In particular, the symmetry axis x-x is vertically disposed when the mask structure 1 is worn like in the configuration shown in FIG. 2. The cuts 3 made on the mask 1 extend with a value which is inferior to the complete vertical development of the mask 1, that is to say the cuts that have been made do not extend to the upper portion 4 and to the lower portion 5 of the mask 1. In this way, the portions 4 and 5 are affected by bend lines 6, which are represented by discontinuous hatching lines and are disposed adjacent to the upward and downward extension of the ...

Abstract

A mask structure comprised of a sheet of paper material, wherein the mask structure includes one or more cuts subdividing said sheet into one or more plane portions connected to one another and disposed at different angles during use of the mask structure.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a structure and composition for a mask and its container.[0002]In particular, the structure subject of the present invention is realizable with a sheet in papery material or in similar materials such as cardboard, paperboard, plastified paper or plastic in a thin sheet of this material.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Well-known masks in chartaceous material have a planar development and, when they are under rest conditions, that is to say when they are not worn, they extend only to two dimensions. Once they are worn, the masks are curved and define an approximately cylindrical surface. This development to a basically cylindrical surface may lead to a deformation of the drawing or image reproduced on the mask which has a not very natural effect.[0004]Moreover, well-known masks are usually provided with an elastic band which is placed around the head to keep the mask in its position. The presence of the elastic band may tur...
