Description of an embodiment of the invention

With reference to the numbering adopted in the figures, the cover (F) for the mask (7) comprises a bag body (2) with an opening (3) as a mouthpiece, and a tab (1) that is above the the opening (3) as an extension of a part of the bag body (2), so that through said opening (3) the mask (7) can be inserted into an interior space of the bag body (2).

The bag body (2) of the cover (F) has a rectangular shape where one of its smaller sides coincides with a closed bottom (9) of the interior space of the bag body (2), while its other smaller side is coinciding with the opening (3) as a mouthpiece.

Thus, the bag body (2) comprises two opposing laminar elements of rectangular shape joined by three of their four sides; where the fourth side coincides with the opening (3) as a mouthpiece; and where one of the laminar elements extends above the opening (3) forming the tongue (1).

On the smaller or extreme side where the tab (1) is located, the opening (3) is located through which the mask (7) is inserted and removed, conveniently folded so that the inside of it (the one that is in contact with the nose and mouth area while using the mask (7) is always safeguarded from coming into contact with any external agent.

The tab (1), of the same width as the bag body (2) of the cover (F) and of sufficient length, allows the opening (3) of the cover (F) to be closed in up to four different ways (fig. 3, fig. 4, fig. 5 and fig. 6) to give it versatility and that the cover (F) solves practically all the protection and transport problems of the masks (7) that adapt to the cover (F) by shape and size.

The tab (1) has a first face and a second face opposite the first face. The bag body (2) also has a first outer face on the same side as the first face of the tab (1) and the opening (3), and a second outer face that is an extension of the second face of the tab. (one).

The tab (1) includes on its first face (fig. 1) a first strip (4) of adherent material of rectangular shape arranged in a transverse direction that is perpendicular to the longitudinal dimension of the cover (F).

For its part, the bag body (2) includes on its first outer face a second strip (5) of adherent material close and parallel to the opening (3), while its second outer face includes a third strip (6) of material adherent close to the closed bottom (9) of the bag body (2); where these two strips also have a rectangular shape; and where the third strip (6) is arranged centrally in a longitudinal direction parallel to the longitudinal dimension of the sleeve (F).

The first strip (4) serves to adapt and adhere to the other two strips: second (5) and third (6) arranged on the outer faces of the two laminar elements of the body bag (2).

The strategic arrangement of the adhesive strips allows the cover (F) to carry out its protection and / or transport function in different ways, solving the problem posed in almost any situation.

In one embodiment of the invention, the adherent strips (4, 5, 6) include velcro surfaces without ruling out other adherent means.

Thus, a first use of the cover (F) corresponds to what is shown in figure 3, in such a way that the tab (1) folds directly over the bag body (2) of the cover (F) and the joint of the adherent surfaces when they come into contact with the first strip (4) and the second strip (5) closes the opening (3), protecting and preventing the mask (7) from coming out of the cover (F).

A second use of the cover (F) corresponds to what is shown in figure 4, in which the bag body (2) is folded over its half until its closed bottom (9) is located next to the opening (3) the third strip (6) also being located close to the opening (3). The tab (1) is then folded down until the adherent surface of its first strip (4) comes into contact with the adherent surface of the third strip (6), at which time the bonding and stability of the position of the cover (F) in its second use closing the opening (3). In this way the cover (F) is closed in a more compact way than the first use described above.

Third, the third of the uses is represented in figure 5 (fig. 5). In this case, the cover (F) is folded giving rise to a configuration in the form of a closed loop to embrace an element (8) in all its contour, so that the tongue (1) together with its first strip (4) It will be arranged in parallel with an end part of the bag body (2) that includes the third adherent strip (6). Said element (8) can be the handlebar of a bicycle, a part of the arm of a user, etc.

Thus, in this case the cover itself (F) surrounds the element (8), like any object or part of a body, fixing itself in that position by joining the first (4) and third (6) adherent strips.

The last use, represented in figure 6 (fig. 6), consists of a variation of the first use that gives another functionality to the invention, consisting of leaving in the outer zone of the cover (F) a projecting element that is part of the mask itself (7) such as a rubber or fabric strap (7 ') of said mask (7), in such a way that when folding the tab (1) directly onto the bag body (2) of the cover (F) the first strip (4) and the second strip (5) are joined as in the first use, thus closing the cover and allowing in this arrangement that the set cover (F) for protection and transport together with the mask (7) stored inside of the cover (F) can be hung in the desired place.

Figure 1 is the front view of the cover (F) for the protection and transport of masks (7), seeing in the upper part of said figure 1 the closing tab (1), in which the first one is in a horizontal position. strip (4) of adherent material. In the upper area of the bag body (2) of the cover (F) the second strip (5) of adherent material is also horizontally arranged.

Figure 2 corresponds to the rear view of the cover (F) for protecting and transporting masks (7), comprising both the closing tab (1) and the bag body (2) of the cover (F), being able to Observe the third strip (6) of adherent material at the bottom of it vertically.

Figures 3, 4, 5 and 6 show the different arrangements that the cover (F) for protecting and transporting masks (7) may have according to the use that is to be made of it, as referred to above.

In this sense, figure 3 shows the arrangement of the cover (F) for protecting and transporting masks (7) completely stretched, in such a way that the closing tab (1) folds directly onto the body of the bag (2) and the closure of the cover (F) is produced by the contact of the first strip (4) with the second strip (5), leaving the cover (F) completely stretched.

Figure 4 shows the compact arrangement of the cover (F) for the protection and transport of masks (7), remaining in this position by means of the fold of the tab (1) and the contact of the first strip (4) with the third strip (6) from the rear area, the cover (F) being reduced to half the length when it is stretched.

Figure 5 shows the way in which the cover (F) for the mask (7) is in a position to surround an element (8) or object, in such a way that, as mentioned above, the first strip (4) is joins with the third strip (6) from the back, being able to adjust the cover (F) to the contour of the object or part of the body surrounded, moving the contact of adherent material between both strips (4, 6) towards one end and the other of the third strip (6).

Figure 6 shows a variation of the use of the protective cover and mask transport (7), in such a way that the arrangement of the cover is the same as in figure 1 but with one of the rubbers or fabrics remaining in the outer zone hook (7 ') of the mask itself (7) that goes inside, allowing the set of cover (F) for protection and transport and mask (7) can be hung from the desired place.

As shown in figure 1, the cover has two differentiated sections, which are the 4 cm closing tab (1). long, and the bag body (2) of the cover (F) is 20 cm. long, the width of the closing tab (1) and the bag body (2) being the same: 4.5 cm. Wide.

The opening (3) of the bag body (2) has the same width as the bag body (2) on the side in connection with the tab (1), such that, since it is a flexible fabric, It allows, by means of a slight pressure on the sides of said opening (3), to leave a hole through which the mask (7) that the cover (F) protects and / or transports is inserted and removed.

The second strip (5) is rectangular in shape with a width of 4 cm. and 2 cm. high, so that said second strip (5) is arranged in the area close to the opening (3) of the bag body (2), visible from the same side as the first strip (4) of 4 cm. wide and 2 cm. high that exists on the tongue (1), but on the opposite side of the opening (3) of the cover (F), in such a way that when the adhering materials of the two strips (4, 5) are brought together the cover ( F) is closed and stretched longitudinally.

The third strip (6) of adherent material, 4 cm. high and 2. cm wide, it is represented in figure 2 and consists of a rectangular strip arranged near the closed bottom (9) of the cover, in the back area and on the opposite side of the first (4) that exists on the tab (1), so that if the cover (F) is stretched they are not visible simultaneously. This third strip (6), given its strategic arrangement and the flexibility of the textile material that makes up the cover (F), serves to arrange the cover folded in half on its own axis or to arrange it around any place that, due to dimensions, the whole of the tongue (1) and the bag body (2) can surround.

Lastly, given that the masks (7) always include straps (7 ') of different material and arrangement to hold them to the user, the tab (1) also allows another use of the cover (F). Said use consists of one of those straps (7 ') (elastic or not) remaining on the outside of the cover (F) once the mask (7) has been inserted and the cover (F) closed by joining the first strip (4) and the second strip (5) of the bag body (2), being able to hang the mask (7) and cover (F) assembly in the desired place by means of said strap (not elastic) when the mask (7) remains secured inside the cover (F) by means of the locking tab (1).

The model therefore allows four types of use for the protection and transport of the masks (7) that by shape and size fit inside, which visually can be summarized in "use stretched for the deposit on any object or to introduce it in a larger container "(bag, backpack, sports bag, etc ...) as shown in figure 3; "Use folded on itself in half for the introduction in places of smaller longitudinal size than the cover itself" (pockets, purses, vehicle compartments, etc.) as shown in figure 4; "Use surrounding the desired place be it a part of the body or an object" (surrounding the wrist or forearm, the handlebar of a bicycle, the foot of a desk lamp, etc.) as shown in figure 5; and the "stretched use with one of the straps (7 ') of the masks (7) on the outside to be able to hang the set anywhere" (coat rack, vehicle mirror, door knob, etc.) as shown in figure 6.

Finally, given the development of multiple techniques for personalizing textile materials resistant to water and other liquids, the cover is ideal both for individual personalization and for commercial or advertising purposes, mainly in the area represented in figure 2, as this area is the that is always visible in each and every one of the intended uses, also allowing the elaboration with textile materials of different colors and patterns, so it is also optimal to fulfill the ornamental function as a complement in clothing while solving the problem for he it was designed.

The cover (F) for the protection and transport of masks (7) object of the present invention will be manufactured with the appropriate materials, consisting on the one hand of closures and / or hooks with adherent material such as velcro, or other materials that carry out the same function (magnetic materials or metal or plastic closures) considering their arrangement in the various parts of the cover (F), and on the other hand in textile material as breathable as possible and with the quality of waterproofing against splashes of liquids and / or or the possible sweat emitted in situations that can generate it, such as sports practice.
