Description

DESCRIPTION

Nose protection tape

TECHNIQUE SECTOR

The present invention refers to a nasal protection tape, whose obvious purpose is to protect the user's respiratory system, both from the entry of too cold air and from particles, viruses or bacteria.

The device offers the same features as a conventional mask, but is much more comfortable to wear.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Various models of particle filtering devices are known, all of them materialized in masks that, although they fulfill the function for which they were designed, present the following problems:

• They are uncomfortable, since they pull on the user's ears, so that after a long period of use they usually cause pain in said area.

• They cover the user's nose and mouth area, so that the person using them is inexpressive and their voice is distorted, which is a problem when communicating, and especially with deaf people who are used to reading texts. lips.

• These are devices that are easy to lose/forget.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The recommended nasal protection tape completely satisfactorily solves the problem described above, based on a simple but effective solution.

To this end, and more specifically, the tape of the invention is made from a flexible textile body with an annular configuration that has a thickness of the order of three centimeters wide and a diameter according to the perimeter of the user's head.

This device adapts elastically to the area of the user's neck, above the ears, covering the nostrils, which allows the air to be filtered from particles, as well as preventing it from entering the respiratory system that is too cold, in certain cases. circumstances, such as in winter, or in rooms with the air conditioning set to an excessively low temperature.

According to another of the characteristics of the invention, to improve the filtering capacity of the device against viruses or bacteria, the tape could incorporate, sewn to it in the area covering the nasal passages, an additional filter against viruses and bacteria.

As it is a device obtained from elastic fabric, it can be easily adapted to the physiognomy of different users in a comfortable, quick and simple way, presenting a minimum volumetric occupation in an inoperative situation, and being susceptible to being decorated with an infinite number of motifs. , colors and/or prints, so that it can be worn in two or three turns on the wrist as a bracelet when its features are not needed, thus avoiding its loss, as usually happens with conventional masks.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description that will be made below and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, in accordance with a preferred example of its practical implementation, a set of plans is attached as an integral part of said description. where, for illustrative and non-limiting purposes, the following has been represented:

Figure 1.- Shows a front elevation view of a nasal protection tape made in accordance with the object of the present invention in use.

Figure 2.- Shows a profile view of the assembly in the previous figure.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the figures outlined, it can be seen how the nasal protection tape of the invention is constituted from a body (1) of flexible textile nature, with an annular configuration, with a thickness of the order of three centimeters and a diameter according to the perimeter of the user's head.

As shown in Figure 2, the tape adapts elastically over the neck area (2) of the user, passing over the ears (3) to finally stabilize over the nose area (4) specifically. covering the nostrils.

The very textile nature of the tape acts as a filter element for particles such as dust, pollen or similar, fulfilling an additional function which is to prevent the entry of too cold air into the lungs, thus avoiding possible colds.

As previously stated, to improve the protection capacity of the device, it could incorporate, preferably on its inner side, an additional filter against viruses and bacteria that extends over the area covering the nasal passages.

Claims (2)

1a.- Nasal protection tape, characterized in that it is made up of a body (1) of flexible textile nature, with an annular configuration, with a thickness of the order of three centimeters and a diameter according to the perimeter of the user's head, said body (1) defining a stable covering means for the user's nostrils. 2a.- Nasal protection tape, according to claim 1a, characterized in that on its internal side, and in correspondence with the area covering the nasal passages, it includes a filter against viruses and bacteria.
