Mask mouth sheet that can be attached to a mask and mask

Abstract

To provide a mask mouth pad sheet with an engaging part so as not to be shifted from the mask and the mask, which eliminates such a possibility as the mask is dragged and shifted due to the movement of the mouth during use and causes the makeup and saliva to adhere to the mask, and each time that happens, the mask has to be washed and disposed of.SOLUTION: The mask mouth pad sheet is engaged by a hook-and-loop fastener or adhesive material or such or by a hook by bending or by friction with a nose fitter. At the same time, the mask mouth pad is easy to detach and can be used repeatedly after washing, or can be replaced and disposed of, thereby allowing the mask to be used for a long time without being washed.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 10

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a mouth sheet or mask to be used together with a known mask or a mask invented by the inventor (Patent Application No. 2021-050255). [Background technology]

[0002] As new strains of the novel coronavirus emerge and grow in intensity, and person-to-person infections are on the rise, people are increasingly wearing masks not only when going out, but also all day, except when sleeping or eating. This article relates to a mouth-covering sheet placed between the mask and the lips to prevent lipstick or makeup from getting on the mask when wearing a mask or eye mask, and a mask that uses this sheet. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0003] When wearing a mouth cover on a mask, the jaw of the mouth moves downward, causing the mouth cover to slip off the bottom edge of the mask and come off the mouth, which can result in lipstick, makeup, or saliva getting on the mask. [Means for solving the problem]

[0004] The present invention relates to a mask mouth cover such as a mouth sheet that can be attached to a mask, and also to a mask that can be attached to a mask mouth cover. The means for attaching the mask mouth cover is hook and loop fasteners or adhesive, or by hooking the mask by folding it or by friction with a nose fitter. [Effects of the Invention]

[0005] The mouth cover that is placed between the mask and the mouth does not slip off even when opening and closing the mouth, which helps keep the mask clean at all times. Furthermore, the masks are easy to dispose of and replace, and because they are washable, they can be used multiple times without getting dirty, and can be used cleanly for a long period of time without the need for washing, which has the effect of reducing costs. It can also be combined with a commercially available mask to achieve this effect. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0007] Figure 1 shows a conventional mask 1 with a mouth sheet 2 attached to the side that comes into contact with the face. When this mask is worn, the mouth sheet 2 shifts up, down, left, and right, as shown by arrow 3, and becomes detached from the mask 1, losing its function.

[0008] Figure 2 shows a mask 4 invented by the present inventor, equipped with a mouth sheet 2. As in Figure 1, the mouth sheet 2 shifts in the direction of arrow 3 and comes off the mask.

[0009] Figure 3 shows the theory behind why the mouth sheet 2 slips. When wearing the mask shown in Figure 1, if you talk or move your mouth, your jaw will move only downward as shown by arrow 31, and as a result, the mouth sheet 2 in the gap between the mask 1 and your face will move further and further downward as shown by arrow 3, due to the downward movement of your jaw and gravity, and will slip and eventually fall off.

[0010] Therefore, the inventors of the present invention have conducted extensive research and have thoroughly investigated the theory and structure for preventing the mouthpiece sheet 2 from slipping when worn, and have completed the present invention.

[0011] In the first embodiment of the present invention, the mouth sheet 2 is placed on the mask 1 as shown in FIG. 4(A), and the next step is shown in FIG. 4(B) by arrow 6. The mask 1 and mouth sheet 2 are placed on top of each other, and the nose fitter (wire or the like) 11 provided on the top of the mask 1 is bent into a mountain shape to fit the shape of the nose, thereby maximizing the contact area between the two and creating maximum frictional force to connect them together.

[0012] When worn, the mask 1 and mouth sheet 2 of the present invention are pressed against the nose by the nose fitter 11, which conforms to the shape of the nose, and the friction holds the mouth sheet 2 in place. As a result, as shown in Figure 3, even if the jaw moves during conversation, the mouth sheet 2 is pressed against the nose by the nose fitter 11, which conforms to the shape of the nose, so the two are firmly connected and do not slip. Furthermore, the mouth sheet 2 can be replaced or washed repeatedly, which has the effect of reducing costs.

[0013] In this case, the mouth sheet 2 should be slightly smaller than the size of the mask, but should overlap the nose fitter 11. The material of the mouth sheet can be nonwoven fabric, cloth, gauze, soft porous paper, or any other material that can prevent lipstick or makeup from sticking to the mask and is breathable, but washable nonwoven fabric is preferred.

[0014] The second embodiment of the present invention is a method for preventing the mouth sheet from slipping, as shown in Figures 5(A) and (B). First, the mask alone (A) is folded so that the center of the nose fitter at the top of the mask is bent into a mountain shape to fit the nose (B), and the mouth sheet (C) is placed on top of the mask as shown in 61, and (D) the mouth fitter is pressed in to fit the shape of the nose fitter (62), and the two are connected.

[0015] 6, the third embodiment of the present invention is for the mask 4 of FIG. 2, and shows a method of first placing the mask 4 horizontally, folding the mask portion 1 at the adhesive portion 44, and then folding the center of the nose fitter 11 of the folded mask 1 into a mountain shape to fit the nose, thereby connecting the mouth sheet and the mask. The side of the mask portion 1 of the mask 4 where the nose fitter 11 is provided is lifted as shown by arrow 32, and the nose fitter 11 explained in the first or second embodiment is folded into a mountain shape, making the work easy to perform.

[0016] The fourth embodiment of the present invention is a method and a mask mouth cover in which a foldable mask mouth cover is folded at an appropriate position as shown by the dotted line 21 in FIG. 7 and attached to the mask.

[0017] As shown in Figure 7, the mask mouth sheet 2, which is slightly shorter in length and width than the mask, is folded either vertically or horizontally. When folded vertically as shown in Figure 7, the width of the mouth sheet is set to a size that can adequately cover the mouth. Note that in Figure 7, the right edge is the part that touches the top edge of the mask. Then, as shown in Figure 8, the mask mouth sheet 2 is placed and attached so that the folded part straddles the top edge of the mask 1.

[0018] According to the fourth embodiment, the attachment can be performed inexpensively, the mouth covering sheet 2 does not fall down or protrude, and has the effect of always covering the mouth.

[0019] In the fifth embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 9, a mouth sheet 2 is provided on the mesh 4.

[0020] In the sixth embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 10, a hook-and-loop fastener 52 is provided in the center of the lower part of the nose fitter 11 of the mask 1. Alternatively, the mask is provided with a differential double-sided adhesive material 51 having one removable side and one permanent adhesive side. According to the sixth embodiment, the fastening means is provided at the center of the upper part of the mouth sheet and at the center of the lower part of the nose fitter (wire, etc.) of the mask, so that, particularly when fastened with a hook-and-loop fastener, the mouth sheet is easy to put on and take off, does not slip off, and since the soft hook-and-loop side 52 is adhered to the mask, it does not cause scratches or the like even when it comes into contact with the skin.

[0021] FIG. 11 shows a seventh embodiment of the present invention, in which an adhesive part 51 is provided in the upper center of a nonwoven mask mouth cover 2, in which the loop side and the hook side of a hook-and-loop fastener are bonded together, or only one side, for example, the hook side 53, or an adhesive part in which a release liner is attached to the adhesive material such as the differential.

[0022] 12 shows an eighth embodiment of the present invention, which is a side view of a mask mouth cover attached to a mask 1 of a mask 4, characterized in that a loop side 52 of a hook-and-loop fastener is provided as a fastening portion on the mask 1, and a hook side 53 of a hook-and-loop fastener is provided as a fastening portion on the mask mouth cover 2. The fastening portion between the mask and the mouth cover (sheet) 2 may be an adhesive 51.

[0023] The ninth embodiment of the present invention is the application of the present invention to a known commercially available mask. The mouth guard sheet 2 of the present invention shown in Figure 11 is attached using a hook-and-loop fastener that connects both the loop and hook sides, or a differential double-sided tape or other adhesive with a release liner. The release liner of the loop side of the hook-and-loop fastener or the differential double-sided adhesive is removed, and the mouth guard sheet is attached to a known commercially available mask. In the case of a double-sided adhesive, the mouth guard sheet is attached by directly adhering it to the commercially available mask. In the case of a hook-and-loop fastener, the loop side removed from the mouth guard sheet is attached to the commercially available mask, and the hook side of the mouth guard sheet is then attached to the commercially available mask to attach the commercially available mask and the mouth guard sheet of the present invention. The mouth covering sheet of the present invention is provided with a connecting portion such as a hook-and-loop fastener connecting both the loop side and the hook side, or a double-sided adhesive portion such as a differential with a release liner, so that the mouth covering sheet can be sold and supplied alone.

[0024] Another example of applying the present invention to a known commercially available mask is the tenth embodiment of the present invention, which is characterized in that, as shown in FIG. 13, a plurality of known masks 1 are stacked on top of each other, and a hook-and-loop fastener side 52 fastening portion is provided at the top center of the inside of one mask, and a hook-and-loop fastener side 53 is provided at the fastening portion of another mask 1. In addition, instead of the hook-and-loop fasteners 52 and 53, an adhesive 51 may be provided as a fastening portion of the mask 1, and the adhesive is preferably a differential double-sided adhesive, and only one adhesive is required to be provided on the fastening portion of either the inside or outside of two adjacent masks 1.

[0025] As described above, the present invention is an essential invention in the COVID-19 era, as it allows the mask to be worn more comfortably and hygienically without moving even when the mouth sheet 2 is attached to a known mask or eye mask. [Industrial Applicability]

[0026] The present invention allows people to wear masks safely to prevent the entry of the novel coronavirus and bacteria, which are a global problem, through the mouth, nose, and eyes, and therefore has extremely great industrial applicability. [Explanation of symbols]
