Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a sanitary mask, and more particularly to a sanitary mask having a pocket for storing a moisturizing mat. [Background technology]

[0002] In today's highly urbanized world, the risk of viral infection is high in places like schools, workplaces, public transport, and large stores, so wearing a sanitary mask when going out is recommended. Conventional sanitary masks consist of a mask body that covers the nose and mouth and a pair of ear loops attached to the left and right ends of the mask body. The mask body is made of nonwoven fabric. Some sanitary masks have a moisturizing mat stored in the pocket to provide sufficient moisturizing effect to the throat, lips and mouth area as well as moisturizing the skin that comes into contact with the sanitary mask.

[0003] The hygienic mask with pockets has pockets on the left and right sides of the back side of the mask body (the side that comes into contact with the skin). The left pocket, when viewed from the back of the mask body, has a first entrance along the boundary line that divides the left half of the back side of the mask body from the center into two halves, and consists of a left storage section with an internal space extending from the first entrance to the center of the mask body, and a left lid section with a second entrance along the boundary line and an internal space extending from the second entrance to the left edge of the back side of the mask body. The second entrance end of the left lid section overlaps the first entrance end of the left storage section, so that a first moisturizing mat stored in the left pocket with the first and second entrances open will not slip out.

[0004] Similarly, the right pocket when viewed from the back of the mask body has a third entrance located along the boundary line that divides the right half of the area from the center of the back of the mask body into two halves, left and right, and consists of a right storage section with an internal space extending from the third entrance to the center of the mask body, and a right lid section with a fourth entrance located along the boundary line and an internal space extending from the fourth entrance to the right end of the back of the mask body, and by overlapping the fourth entrance end of the right lid section on top of the third entrance end of the right storage section, the second moisturizing mat stored in the right pocket with the third and fourth entrances open will not slip out to the outside.

[0005] The moisturizing mat stored in the pocket is formed in a square shape, but in order to make it easier to take in and out, its size is smaller than the internal space of the left and right storage sections, so it has the disadvantage of being unstable when stored, and it shifts unnaturally from the mask body, making it look unattractive. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and its object is to provide a hygienic mask in which the position of the moisturizing mat inside the pocket is stable. [Means for solving the problem]

[Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0009] [Figure 1] 1 is a front view of a sanitary mask according to an embodiment of the present invention. [Figure 2] FIG. 2 is a rear view of FIG. [Figure 3] FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of how to use the sanitary mask of FIG. 1. [Figure 4] FIG. 10 is a front view of a sanitary mask according to a modified example of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0010] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below using examples. [Example]

[0011] A sanitary mask according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 3. Figure 1 is a front view (surface view) of the sanitary mask according to the present invention, Figure 2 is a rear view (back view), and Figure 3 is an explanatory diagram of how to use it. In these figures, 1 is a sanitary mask, of which 2 is the mask body made of two layers of nonwoven fabric on the front and back sides, 3 and 4 are the left and right ear loops attached to the left and right ends of the mask body 2 when viewed from the back, and 10 and 20 are the left and right pockets attached to the left and right sides of the center (midline) in the left-right direction on the back side of the mask body, which can respectively store the first and second moisturizing mats (see symbols 31 and 32 in Figures 1 and 2).

[0012] The left pocket 10, viewed from the back of the mask body 2, has a first entrance 11 provided on the back surface of the mask body along a boundary line A that divides the left half of the back surface of the mask body 2 from the left-right center into two, left and right, and includes a left storage section 12 with an internal space extending from the first entrance 11 to the left-right center of the mask body 2, and a left lid section 14 with a second entrance 13 provided along the boundary line A and an internal space extending from the second entrance 13 to the left edge of the back surface of the mask body 2. The second entrance end of the left lid section 14 overlaps the first entrance end of the left storage section 12, so that the first moisturizing mat 31 stored in the left pocket 10 by opening the first entrance 11 and second entrance 13 does not easily slip out. The left storage section 12 and the left lid section 14 are formed from the back surface fabric 2b of the mask body 2.

[0013] Similarly, the right pocket 20, when viewed from the back of the mask body 2, has a third entrance 21 provided along a boundary line B that further divides the right half of the mask body's back surface from the left-right center into two halves, left and right, and is made up of a right storage section 22 with an internal space extending from the third entrance 21 to the left-right center of the mask body 2, and a fourth entrance 23 provided along the boundary line B and a right lid section 24 with an internal space extending from the fourth entrance 23 to the right edge of the back surface of the mask body 2. The fourth entrance end of the right lid section 22 overlaps the third entrance end of the right storage section 22, so that the second moisturizing mat 32 stored in the right pocket 20 by opening the third entrance 22 and the fourth entrance 24 will not easily slip out. The right storage section 22 and the right lid section 24 are formed from the back surface fabric 2b of the mask body 2. The first boundary line A is a line extending diagonally upward and to the left from the lower end at the center of the back surface of the mask body 2, and the second boundary line B is a line extending diagonally upward and to the right from the lower end at the center of the back surface of the mask body 2. As a result, the first to fourth entrances 11, 13, 21, 23 are large entrances, making it easy to put in and take out the first and second moisturizing mats 31, 32.

[0014] A first welded portion 41 is provided at the bottom of the left storage section 12, where the front fabric 2a of the mask body 2 and the back fabric 2b of the mask body 2 of the left storage section 12 are welded horizontally in a linear fashion using a series of dots. Similarly, a second welded portion 42 is provided at the bottom of the right storage section 22, where the front fabric 2a of the mask body 2 and the back fabric 2b of the mask body 2 of the right storage section 22 are welded horizontally in a linear fashion using a series of dots. The first welded portion 41 and the second welded portion 42 are symmetrical. The first and second moisture retention mats 31, 32 stored in the left storage section 12 and the right storage section 22 are locked by the first and second welded sections 41, 42, respectively, and are prevented from shifting downward. This stabilizes the positions of the first and second moisture retention mats 31, 32 within the left pocket 10 and the right pocket 20.

[0015] Next, a method for storing the first and second moisture retaining mats 31, 32 in the sanitary mask 1 will be described. The first entrance 11 and the second entrance 13 of the left pocket 10 are opened, and the first moisture retention mat 31 is stored in the left storage part 12 from the outside, and at this time, the lower side of the first moisture retention mat 31 is locked to the first welding part 41. Similarly, the third entrance 21 and the second entrance 33 of the right pocket 20 are opened, and the second moisture retaining mat 32 is stored in the right storage section 22 from the outside, and at this time, the lower side of the second moisture retaining mat 32 is engaged with the welding section 42 of 21.

[0016] According to this embodiment, the first and second moisture retention mats 31, 32 stored in the left storage section 12 and the right storage section 22 are locked by the first and second welding sections 41, 42, respectively, and are prevented from shifting downward, thereby stabilizing the positions of the moisture retention mats within the pockets. In addition, the first entrance 11 and the second entrance 13, or the third entrance 21 and the fourth entrance 23, allow the pocket to be opened wide, allowing the first and second moisture retention mats 31, 32 to be easily stored. Furthermore, since the first entrance 11 and the second entrance 13, or the third entrance 21 and the fourth entrance 23, overlap, the moisture retention mats 31, 32 are less likely to fall off the pockets. In addition, the first boundary line A is a line extending diagonally from the lower end of the center of the back surface of the mask body 2 to the upper left, and the second boundary line B is a line extending diagonally from the lower end of the center of the back surface of the mask body 2 to the upper right.The first to fourth entrances 11, 13, 21, and 23 are large entrances, making it easy to take the first and second moisturizing mats 31 and 32 in and out.

[0017] In the above embodiment, the first and second welded portions are oriented horizontally, but the present invention is not limited to this. As shown in FIG. 4, the first and second welded portions 410, 420 may be oriented diagonally horizontally. [Industrial Applicability]

[0018] This invention is applicable to hygienic masks with moisturizing mats. [Explanation of symbols]
