[0031] Figures 1-5 The diving full-face mask shown includes a mask 13, a double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1, and a breathing assembly 14.

[0032] The double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1 includes a first rubber ring layer 3, a second rubber ring layer 4, a mirror mounting part 9, a headband fixing part 10, an outer rubber ring layer 11, and a breathing mounting part 12. The first rubber ring layer (or the inner layer of the double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1) 3 is designed to fit snugly against the entire edge of the user's face, and the inner edge of the first rubber ring layer 3 forms a first opening (not labeled). The second rubber ring layer (or the outer layer of the double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1) 4 is designed to fit snugly against the entire edge of the user's face, and the inner edge of the second rubber ring layer 4 forms a second opening (not labeled). Figure 2 Section 2 in the middle and Figure 4 and Figure 5It can be seen that the second rubber ring 4 and the first rubber ring 3 are spaced apart in the direction perpendicular to the user's face, and the second rubber ring 4 is closer to the user's face than the first rubber ring 3; the inner edge of the first rubber ring 3 is located inside the inner edge of the second rubber ring 4 (or the inner edge of the first rubber ring 3 is closer to the middle of the user's face than the inner edge of the second rubber ring 4, or the inner edge of the first rubber ring 3 is located within the area enclosed by the inner edge of the second rubber ring 4); the first opening formed by the inner edge of the first rubber ring 3 is smaller than the second opening formed by the inner edge of the second rubber ring 4; the outer edge of the first rubber ring 3 is connected to the outer edge of the second rubber ring 4.

[0033] The mirror mounting part 9 is formed by extending from the outer edge of the first rubber ring layer 3. The mirror mounting part 9 includes a mounting frame (not identified) with a third opening. The mirror 11 is embedded in the mounting frame of the mirror mounting part 9. The double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1 and the mirror 11 together define a receiving cavity 15. When the double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1 is in use, the user's entire face is inserted into the receiving cavity 15 so that the receiving cavity 15 forms a sealed space.

[0034] The outer rubber ring 11 is formed by extending outward from the outer edge of the first rubber ring 1, and the outer rubber ring 11 is used to fit the entire edge of the user's face.

[0035] There are multiple headband fixing parts 10, which are formed by extending outward from the outer edge of the first rubber ring layer 1. The double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1 is fixed to the user's head by the headband fixing parts 10.

[0036] The breathing mounting part 12 is located at the lower part of the mounting frame of the mask mounting part 9. The breathing mounting part 12 is used to mount the breathing assembly 14 and has a breathing through hole that communicates with the receiving cavity 15.

[0037] The distance between the second rubber ring layer 4 and the first rubber ring layer 3 in the direction perpendicular to the user's face can be referred to as the inner and outer layer spacing 6 of the double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1; the distance between the inner edge of the first rubber ring layer 3 and the inner edge of the second rubber ring layer 4 in the direction along the user's face can be referred to as the inner and outer layer length 5 of the double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1. In one embodiment, the inner and outer layer spacing 6 of the double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1 is designed to be 2.5mm-4.5mm; the inner and outer layer length 5 of the double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1 is designed to be 2.0mm-3.0mm.

[0038] exist Figure 2In the illustrated embodiment, the second rubber ring layer 4 has a protrusion 8 at a position corresponding to the user's temple, pointing towards the user's temple. In one embodiment, the protrusion 8 in the second rubber ring 4 protrudes 1mm-2mm more than other parts of the second rubber ring 4, or the distance 7 between the inner and outer layers of the double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1 at the protrusion 8 in the second rubber ring 4 protrudes 1mm-2mm more than the distance between the inner and outer layers of other parts of the double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1, thereby better alleviating the discomfort and fit of the head temple when the tension band is tightened.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention Figure 2 The double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure 1 shown can be a one-piece molded structure, which facilitates mold design and simplifies the mask production process; the one-piece stamping process avoids step-by-step production and assembly processes.

[0040] In summary, the full-face diving mask and its double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure provided by this invention can solve the following technical problems:

[0041] 1. Since full-face diving masks need to be tightened to fit the face and prevent water leakage, improper operation and insufficient tightening can cause water leakage. The full-face diving mask provided by this invention adopts a double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure design, which can avoid improper operation and insufficient tightening, and provide double-layer protection.

[0042] 2. Existing full-face diving masks using a single-layer rubber ring can cause facial discomfort if not properly tightened and worn for extended periods. The double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure provided by this invention has gaps (or a distance of 6 between the inner and outer layers), which can effectively alleviate the problem of facial discomfort after tightening.

[0043] 3. Due to the height difference between the temples and other parts of the face, existing full-face diving masks using a single-layer rubber ring may leak water during use. The double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure provided by this invention features a raised design for the temples, which can alleviate the discomfort of pressure on the temples and effectively fill the height difference between the temples and other parts of the face. This allows the outer rubber layer (i.e., the second rubber ring layer 4) to fit the temples more closely, effectively preventing water leakage.

[0044] 4. Due to differences in face shape, existing full-face diving masks using a single-layer rubber ring may have gaps in the face during wear, leading to problems such as water seepage. However, the double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure provided by this invention has a difference in length between the inner and outer layers, effectively accommodating differences in face shape and ensuring comfortable wear for people with different face shapes. Therefore, the full-face diving mask and its double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure provided by this invention effectively solve problems such as comfortable wear, reduced pressure on the temples, increased waterproofness, and suitability for people with different face shapes.

[0045] In summary, the full-face diving mask and its double-layer rubber waterproof ring structure provided by this invention are simple to manufacture, comfortable to wear without compressing the face and temples, provide more thorough waterproofing to all parts of the face, and are suitable for different face shapes for comfortable and better fit, thus providing users with a better user experience.

[0046] It should be noted that any modifications made by those skilled in the art to the specific embodiments of the present invention do not depart from the scope of the claims. Accordingly, the scope of the claims is not limited to the foregoing specific embodiments.
