Cost Effective Disposable Face and Eye Protection for Medical Professionals

在最近的COVID-19大流行之后，医疗领域的许多工作人员对使用面部/眼睛防护的要求有所增加。现有产品的几何形状简单，这损害了它们保护用户的有效性，并且不能提供清晰的视野。另外，由于不是一次性使用的，所以长时间佩戴也不舒适，而且价格昂贵。本发明的目的是以最少的部件数量和低成本制造一次性面罩。它在用户眼前提供了一个高清晰度的无失真区域，同时还提供了一个显著的面部环绕，以提供最大程度的保护，免受空气污染物的影响。防护罩是真空成型的，两面都涂有防雾涂层。防护罩是通过可调节的注塑带佩戴和固定的，该带环绕在使用者的头部，高于耳朵的高度。防护罩可以作为一个完整的组件或一套4个部件提供，并由第一个操作员组装，以将供应成本降至最低。一旦调整好，防护罩可以像戴上正确尺寸的帽子一样轻松地拆卸和更换。这款表带的设计非常舒适，可以适应所有成人头部的尺寸。所有材料都是100%可回收的。

Following the recent COVID-19 pandemic there has been an increased requirement for the use of face/eye protection for many workers in the medical field. Existing products are simple in their geometry which compromises their effectiveness in protecting the user and does not provide clear vision. They are also uncomfortable to wear over long periods and expensive as they have not been designed for single use.The design intent is to produce a disposable face mask to be produced from the least number of parts and at low cost. It provides a high clarity distortion-free region in front of the users' eyes yet a significant wrap-around of the face to provide the maximum protection from airborne contaminants. The Shield is vacuum formed with an anti-fog coating applied to both sides.The Shield is worn and kept in place with an adjustable injection moulded strap which surrounds the users' head above ear level. The Shield would be supplied as a complete assembly or as a set of 4 parts and assembled by the first operator to keep supply costs to a minimum.Once adjusted the Shield could be removed and replaced as easily as wearing a cap of the correct size. The strap has been designed for comfort and would be ranged to accommodate all adult head sizes.All materials used for this are 100% recyclable.
