Adhering face mask

Abstract

The adhering face mask is a device that allows the user to breathe filtered air without discomfort. It adheres to user's face with an adhesive gasket and creates a seal. The adhesive face mask creates an air pocket for the user preventing the mask from rubbing against the user's face. The filter housing gasket maintains a sealed air pocket when the filter housing assembly is attached. It comprises a filter housing assembly that uses a set of magnets embedded in it's body to attach to a matching set of magnets embedded in the adhering face mask body. It comprises a filter cartridge that adheres to the filter housing assembly and filters different kinds of air quality.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to face masks which have been used for the purpose of filtering air for the user. The problem with these face masks is that they're inefficient and don't provide adequate protection for the user. In addition to this there is added discomfort to the ears, head, and face from wearing these face masks for extended periods. They are usually skin reactions from the different types of materials that they are made of.

SUMMARY BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The adhering face mask creates an air pocket in between the mask and the user's face, allowing the user to breathe in comfort. The back side of the adhering face mask is in the shape of a facial profile. The adhesive gasket assembly body matches the facial profile and bonds with the adhering face mask creating a seal. The adhesive gasket assembly is comprised of but not limited to an adhesive gasket assembly body, and double sided adhesive strips that adhere the mask to the user's face. The front side of the adhering face mask is embedded with a set of magnets. The filter housing gasket is bonded to front side of the adhering face mask creating a seal. The filter housing assembly is comprised of a set of matching magnets embedded in the back side of the of the filter housing assembly, and houses a filter cartridge. The filter housing assembly attaches and detaches from the adhering face mask body using the set of magnets magnetic forcefields. This embodyment of the invention provides adequate protection to the user by having seals that prevent unfiltered air from getting inside the air pocket. It solves the problem of user discomfort by adhering directly to the users face.
