Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Applications 62/994,150 filed Mar. 24, 2020; 63/003,157 filed Mar. 31, 2020; and 63/005,761 filed Apr. 6, 2020; the disclosures of each are incorporated herein by reference.
- The disclosure relates to a device that protects the user's face from particles disposed in the air that may carry infectious material such as viruses or bacteria. The device can be removably mounted to head gear such as to the brim of a cap or to the suspension inside a helmet or hard hat.
- During times of widespread viral infections and shortages of medical-grade masks such as during the pandemic of 2020, many people must interact with other people while at grocery stores, while picking up food from restaurants, and during essential business activities. Although national health officials advise frequent hand washing and the use of alcohol-based hand sanitizers to protect from infection, they also advise maintaining at least six feet of distance between people because a common manner of spreading viruses is through droplets of material put into the air by a person's sneeze, cough, speaking, or breath. One way of preventing these droplets from entering one's body is to wear a quality mask. However, quality masks are not always available and such masks do not cover the eyes. Those people who are out in the public for various necessary interactions desire personal protective gear for the face that defends against the airborne droplets of potentially infectious material.
- The disclosure provides a personal protective device that is removably mounted to head gear such as to the brim of a cap. The device has a thin transparent body that extends down in front of the user's face. The device blocks items such as the discharge from another person's cough or sneeze from contacting the user's face. The device also blocks items disposed in the air from coming into contact with the user's face by contacting them first as the user moves or by creating a dam of air that pushes them off to the side as the user moves. The device can be rapidly mounted and rapidly dismounted to a wide variety of caps which are owned by a majority of the population in the United States. The ease of mounting the device to the bill of a cap increases the likelihood that a person will use the device when leaving a car to interact with the public. The device also has the benefit that it doesn't directly rest on the user's mouth so that the user's breathing is not restricted. The user is thus more likely to wear the device. Also, the device can be worn in conjunction with a cloth face mask that fits closely over the mouth and nose.
- In the exemplary configuration, the thin transparent body of the device defines an elongated opening through which the brim of a cap is placed. In the exemplary configuration, the opening is curved downwardly on both sides from a middle section in the manner of many cap brims. A majority of the body is disposed below of opening such that the majority of the body is disposed in front of the user's face when the device is carried by a cap worn by the user. Other openings shapes are used with flat-billed caps and caps with tightly-curved bills. The body of the device can be curved back along the sides of the user's face. The body of the device also can include scored fold lines that define sidewall flaps to cover the sides of the face back toward the ears.
- In one exemplary configuration, the device includes locking fingers that pivotable extend into the curved opening that receives the brim of the hat. The locking fingers engage the hat with a resilient force while the device is worn. When the device is pushed onto the hat brim, the locking fingers are bent in the forward direction. These forwardly-bent locking fingers have to be bent backwards through the opening in order to remove the device from the brim which provides a substantial holding force to the device.
- The device also can be used to protect the user's face from other splatter such as paint from a roller when painting a ceiling.
- In another exemplary configuration, the disclosure provides a personal protection device that is removably mounted to the suspension of a helmet or hard hat. The device has a thin transparent body that extends down in front of the user's face. The device blocks items such as the discharge from another person's cough or sneeze from contacting the user's face. The device also blocks items disposed in the air from coming into contact with the user's face by contacting them first as the user moves or by creating a dam of air that pushes them off to the side as the user moves. The device can be rapidly mounted and rapidly dismounted to a wide variety of suspension straps disposed inside hats that accommodate suspensions. In this configuration, the thin transparent body defines a pair of oppositely-extending mounting flanges spaced from the main body by slots that adapted to receive the straps from the hat suspension.
- In other embodiments, the bottom portion of the body is scored, microperforated, or perforated to allow a portion to fold inwardly to be disposed under the chin. Folding this portion inwardly stiffens the body and provide additional protection to the face from below.
- The preceding non-limiting aspects, as well as others, are more particularly described below. A more complete understanding of the processes and equipment can be obtained by reference to the accompanying drawings, which are not intended to indicate relative size and dimensions of the assemblies or components thereof. In those drawings and the description below, like numeric designations refer to components of like function.
