[0033] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: an emergency respirator, including a head cover 1, a top airbag 2, an inner airbag 3, a transparent face mask 4, a positioning elastic band 5, an inner mouth and nose mask 6, an air delivery tube 7, an air canister 8, straps 9, a shoulder strap 10, an anti-slip hook surface 11, a connecting hook surface 12, a connecting fleece surface 13, a mounting plate 14, a shoulder protection plate 15, an anti-slip surface 16, and a positioning inner liner 17. The top airbag 2 is fixed to the top outer side of the head cover 1, and the middle of the head cover 1... A transparent face mask 4 is installed, and a positioning elastic band 5 is fixed to the bottom inner side of the head cover 1. An inner nose mask 6 is installed at the bottom center of the transparent face mask 4 inside the head cover 1. The inner nose mask 6 is connected to the top of the air duct 7. The top of the air duct 7 is connected to the front of the head cover 1. The bottom of the air duct 7 is connected to the air canister 8. A strap 9 is installed in the middle of the side of the air canister 8. A shoulder strap 10 is installed on the top of the side of the air canister 8. An anti-slip hook surface 11 is installed on the inner side of the top of the shoulder strap 10. A connecting hook surface 12 is fixed to the bottom of the outer walls on both sides of the head cover 1. The connecting hook surface 12 is bonded to the connecting textured surface 13. The connecting textured surface 13 is fixed to the mounting plate 14. The bottom of the mounting plate 14 is connected to the top of the shoulder protection plate 15. An anti-slip surface 16 is installed on the top surface of the shoulder protection plate 15. A positioning inner lining piece 17 is fixed to the inner side of the anti-slip surface 16.

[0034] In actual use, the transparent face mask 4 is fitted into the opening in the middle of the headgear 1 through a waterproof sealing ring, and the inner nose mask 6 is snapped into the transparent face mask 4. The inner nose mask 6 is inserted into the top of the air tube 7 through a silicone tube, and the top of the air tube 7 is detachably connected to the center of the front of the headgear 1 through a quick connector; the bottom of the air tube 7 is threaded to the air canister 8; the shoulder strap 10 is riveted to the air canister 8; the anti-slip hook surface 11 is bonded to the shoulder strap 10. The bottom of the outer walls on both sides of the headgear 1 has an integrally formed connecting hook surface 12; the bottom of the mounting plate 14 is hinged to the shoulder protection plate 15 through a pivot; the shoulder protection plate 15 is glued to the anti-slip surface 16; the positioning inner lining plate 17 is embedded in the anti-slip surface 16.

[0035] In this embodiment, an inner airbag 3 is fixed to the top inner side of the headgear 1. The inner airbag 3 is ring-shaped when viewed from below, and a circular groove is provided in the center of the inner airbag 3. Specifically, the inner airbag 3 is a ring-shaped structure with a central through hole when viewed from below. The above structural design allows the inner airbag 3 to stably fit against the user's head, providing support and positioning for the headgear 1.

[0036] In this embodiment, the inner airbag 3 has three independent air chambers in its annular structure. The three independent air chambers are evenly distributed at 120°. Each independent air chamber is connected to a micro air pump 21, which is fixed to the top of the inner side of the headgear 1.

[0037] The three independent air chambers are designed primarily based on a combination of ergonomic and functional safety considerations. These three chambers form a stable triangular support structure, better adapting to the head contours of different users and achieving uniform pressure distribution. Furthermore, this modular design improves system reliability; if one chamber malfunctions, the remaining chambers can still maintain basic functionality, providing redundancy for emergencies. Simultaneously, each independent air chamber is equipped with an independent miniature inflation pump 21, and all three pumps inflate simultaneously, shortening emergency donning time.

[0038] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, an electronic circuit board is also provided on the top of the inner side of the headgear 1. The electronic circuit board integrates a microprocessor 22 and pressure sensors 23 arranged on the inner walls of the three independent air chambers 20. The microprocessor 22 is connected to the input terminal of the micro air pump 21.

[0039] After the wearer puts on the hood, emergency transport personnel manually turn on the miniature air pump 21 to inflate each of the 120-degree evenly distributed independent air chambers. Pressure sensors 23 on the inner wall of each air chamber monitor the air pressure data in real time and feed it back to the microprocessor 22. The microprocessor 22 has a preset air pressure threshold; when the monitored air pressure value reaches the threshold, the miniature air pump 21 stops working. A one-way valve is installed between the miniature air pump 21 and the independent air chambers to prevent gas backflow.

[0040] In this embodiment, the outer surface of the transparent mask 4 is coated with an anti-fog coating, and the inner surface of the transparent mask 4 is provided with a humidity sensing strip. The humidity sensing strip detects changes in humidity inside the mask. The humidity sensing strip is made of cobalt chloride color-changing material; when the humidity is <30%, the humidity sensing strip is blue, and when the humidity is >60%, the humidity sensing strip is pink. It can be used to detect breathing status.

[0041] In this example, the frontal width of the top airbag 2 is greater than 3 / 4 of the width of the headgear 1. Under standard working pressure, the maximum thickness of the top airbag 2 is not less than half the maximum thickness of the inner airbag 3. The above structural design enables the top airbag 2 and the inner airbag 3 to work together to provide stable protection for the user's head and prevent injury from falling objects.

[0042] In this example, the center of the anti-slip hook surface 11 is aligned with the top center of the shoulder strap 10, and the length of the anti-slip hook surface 11 is greater than 1 / 6 of the overall length of the shoulder strap 10. The above structural design ensures that the anti-slip hook surface 11 is long enough to stably fit with the anti-hair-shedding surface 16. It should be noted that the anti-slip hook surface 11 is a nylon hook and loop with a peel strength ≥15N / cm.

[0043] In this example, both the shoulder protection plate 15 and the positioning liner 17 have inverted "U"-shaped side cross-sections. Both are symmetrically distributed about the center of the headgear 1. The shoulder protection plate 15 is made of fire-resistant fabric, and the positioning liner 17 is made of spring steel. This structural design allows the positioning liner 17 to be stably secured to the user's shoulder, working in conjunction with the shoulder protection plate 15 to provide stable protection. It should be noted that the spring steel of the positioning liner 17 has a thickness of 0.5-1.2 mm and an elastic modulus ≥190 GPa.

[0044] In this example, the length of the anti-hair-shedding surface 16 is greater than 3 / 4 of the length of the shoulder protector 15, and the side view width of the anti-hair-shedding surface 16 is greater than 1 / 3 of the side view width of the shoulder protector 15. This structural design allows the anti-slip hook surface 11 on the inside of the shoulder strap 10 to easily adhere to the anti-hair-shedding surface 16 without requiring special alignment. It should be noted that the anti-hair-shedding surface 16 is fixed to the top surface of the shoulder protector 15 using a high-temperature resistant adhesive.

[0045] Working principle: When in use, put the headgear 1 on your head, and use the positioning elastic band 5 to tighten the bottom of the headgear 1 to fit tightly against the skin of your neck. The top of your head should fit against the inside of the inner airbag 3. Secure the positioning inner lining 17 to your shoulders, and attach the connecting hook surface 12 to the connecting hair surface 13. Use the mounting piece 14 to combine the shoulder protection piece 15 and the positioning inner lining 17 with the headgear 1. Then, put the shoulder strap 10 on your shoulders, and securely attach the anti-slip hook surface 11 on the inside of the shoulder strap 10 to the anti-slip hair surface 16 on the outside of the shoulder protection piece 15. Use the strap 9 to tie the air canister pack 8 to your waist, and you can then carry out emergency escape or first aid transport.

[0046] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model.
