Benefits of technology

[0011]With this configuration, in the mask of the present invention, at least a part of the boundary between the mask main body and the nose cover portion has different rigidity from that of at least one of a portion of the mask main body adjacent to the boundary and a portion of the nose cover portion adjacent to the boundary, so that the folding work of the nose cover portion with respect to the mask main body by the user can be facilitated.
[0012]A mask of the present invention includes: a mask main body for preventing exposure of a mouth of a user; and a nose cover attached to the mask main body so as to protrude from the mask main body in order to prevent exposure of an external nostril of the user. The nose cover is detachably attached to the mask main body.
[0013]With this configuration, the mask of the present invention includes the nose cover attached to the mask main body so as to protrude from the mask main body in order to prevent the exposure of the external nostril of the user. Therefore, when the nose cover is attached to the mask main body in a case where the mask main body slides down from a specific position of the head of the user, the possibility that the external nostril of the user is exposed can be reduced by the nose cover. In the mask of the present invention, in a case where there is a low possibility that the mask main body slides down from the specific position of the head of the user, the discomfort of the user due to the wide range of a face being covered can be reduced by removing the nose cover from the mask main body.
[0014]A nose cover of the present invention is attached to a mask main body for preventing exposure of a mouth of a user so as to protrude from the mask main body in order to prevent exposure of an external nostril of the user.
[0015]With this configuration, the nose cover of the present invention is attached to the mask main body so as to protrude from the mask main body in order to prevent the exposure of the external nostril of the user. Therefore, when the nose cover is attached to the mask main body in a case where the mask main body slides down from a specific position of the head of the user, the possibility that the external nostril of the user is exposed can be reduced by the nose cover.
[0016]The mask and the nose cover of the present invention can reduce the possibility that the external nostril of the user is exposed.

Problems solved by technology

However, the conventional mask has a problem that the mask main body slides down from a specific position of the head of the user to cause the external nostril of the user to be exposed above the upper end of the mask main body in a specific case while the mask is attached to the head of the user such as a case where the user performs vigorous exercise while the mask is attached to the head of the user.

Abstract

A mask includes: a mask main body for preventing exposure of a mouth of a user; and a nose cover portion protruding from the mask main body to prevent exposure of an external nostril of the user. The nose cover portion is foldable with respect to the mask main body at a boundary with the mask main body. The mask has: a usage mode in which the mask is attached to a head of the user in a state where the nose cover portion is folded with respect to the mask main body at the boundary; and a usage mode in which the mask is attached to the head in a state where the nose cover portion is unfolded with respect to the mask main body at the boundary.
