Description

  The present invention locks a mask made up of a breathable covering body covering a breathing part of a person's nose and mouth and a string-like ear hooking member provided on opposite sides of the covering body to an eyeglass frame. It relates to the mask holder to be fixed.

  Masks that cover the nose and mouth of the face with a breathable cloth body such as gauze and non-woven fabric for the purpose of pollen prevention and cold prevention are generally worn with rubber straps on your ears. is there.

  Although this type of mask is easy to put on and take off, when it is worn for a long time, the ear often feels painful, and the mask sometimes cannot be worn due to the discomfort.

  Furthermore, since the person wearing spectacles already wears the spectacle frame on the ear, wearing a mask further increases the burden on the ear and increases pain and discomfort around the ear. It is in.

  However, in the pollen season and the winter flu season, there are many people who have to wear a mask almost all day long, and those people reduce the discomfort of wearing the mask when wearing glasses. For this reason, a large-scale object that supports the mask by turning a string around the entire head may be worn.

  In addition, there is a technique that attempts to eliminate a problem that is felt by the ear when wearing this type of mask, by attaching a hollow tube to the rubber cord so that the wearing length of the rubber cord can be adjusted ( Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 58-126850: Patent Document 1). However, this technology is intended to improve the fit by adjusting the length of the rubber strap with the tube when the rubber strap is hung on the ear, and there is a problem when wearing the above glasses and mask at the same time. It cannot be improved.

  In addition, there is a technique of mounting a mask using a frame instead of a rubber string (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 54-63495: Patent Document 2). However, with this technique, the frame of the mask as well as the frame of the eyeglasses is hooked on the ear, and therefore it is not possible to prevent an increase in the burden on the ear and an increase in pain and discomfort around the ear.

In addition, a technique has been proposed in which a thick tube is passed through the portion of the mask string that hangs on the ears to reduce the burden on the ears (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-223792: Patent Document 3, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-158905: Patent Document 4, Utility Model Registration No. 3067436: Patent Document 5, Utility Model Registration No. 3115302: Patent Document 6). However, although all the techniques have an effect of reducing the burden on the ear by the rubber string, it is impossible to prevent an increase in the burden on the ear when wearing glasses at the same time.
Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 58-126850 Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 54-63495 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-223792 JP 2006-158905 A Utility Model Registration No. 3067436 Utility Model Registration No. 3115302

  In order to eliminate the above field problems, the present invention can prevent an increase in the burden on the ear even if a person wearing spectacles wears a mask, and can prevent an increase in pain and discomfort around the ear. It is intended to provide a holder.

  The present invention provides a mask comprising: a breathable covering body that covers a breathing part of a human nose and mouth; and a string-like ear hooking member provided on opposite sides of the covering main body. A mask characterized in that a hole for inserting the end portion is formed, and a locking member for locking the ear hooking member to the frame of the glasses is provided in a state where the end portion of the ear hooking member is inserted through the hole. It is a holder.

  In the present invention, the locking member is a cylindrical body in which a hollow hole is formed, the ear hooking member is inserted into the hollow hole, and the middle part of the ear hooking member is squeezed to form an annular portion at the end of the ear hooking member. It is preferable that the ear hook member is held on the spectacle frame through the spectacle frame through the annular portion.

  In the present invention, it is preferable that the locking member is formed of a flexible elastic body having a cross-sectional area of the hollow hole smaller than a cross-sectional area of the two ear hooking members. It is.

  Further, in the present invention, the locking member is formed of a flexible elastic body having a plurality of through holes, and the eyeglass frame locking means through which one or more through holes are inserted. It is preferable that the other through-hole constitutes an ear hooking member locking means for locking the ear hooking member.

  Further, in the present invention, it is preferable that the spectacle frame locking means of the locking member is formed with two through-holes having a generally 8-shaped shape for continuously inserting the spectacle frame. It is.

  In the present invention, it is preferable that the ear hooking member locking means is an annular structure having a notch, and the ear hooking member is locked to the annular structure through the notch.

  In the mask holder according to claims 1 to 6 of the present invention, the ear hooking member in a state in which the ear hooking member end portion is inserted into the hole by the locking member in which the hole penetrating the end portion of the ear hooking member is formed. Since the eyeglass frame is locked to the frame of the glasses, the mask can be supported by the frame of the glasses without having to be supported by the ears. Even if it is worn, it is possible to prevent an increase in the burden on the ear and to prevent an increase in pain and discomfort around the ear.

  In the present invention, the locking member is a cylindrical body in which a hollow hole is formed, the ear hooking member is inserted into the hollow hole, and the middle part of the ear hooking member is squeezed to form an annular portion at the end of the ear hooking member. If it is possible to hold the ear hooking member on the spectacle frame through the spectacle frame through the annular portion, the ear hooking member such as the rubber strap of the existing mask is inserted into the hollow hole of the locking member. Thus, the mask can be locked to the spectacle frame with a simple configuration and operation of only passing through the spectacle frame, and since the structure is simple, it is easy to reduce the size and weight, making it suitable for mass production and low cost. In addition, when attaching, the end portion of the ear hooking member can be pulled out of the locking member, and the annular portion can be easily enlarged and adjusted, so that it can be easily attached to the spectacle frame, while the hooking member is hooked on the locking member. If the member is retracted, it can be easily clamped and fixed to the spectacle frame.

  Further, if the locking member has a cross-sectional area of the hollow hole smaller than the cross-sectional area of the two ear hooking members and is formed of a flexible elastic body, the elastic force and hollow Due to the small size of the hole, the ear hooking member passed through the hollow hole is tightly held on the inner wall surface of the hollow hole and the clamping force is increased, and the locking member is not easily displaced relative to the ear hooking member.

  In addition, by selecting a resin material (for example, a soft resin material such as polyethylene) that has a large frictional force with the ear hooking member as the locking member, the locking member is less likely to slip with respect to the ear hooking member. Further positional displacement can be prevented.

  Further, the locking member is formed of a flexible elastic body having a plurality of through holes, and one or more through holes constitute a spectacle frame locking means for inserting the spectacle frame, By configuring the ear-hook member locking means for locking the ear-hook member by the through-holes, the spectacle frame locking means can be inserted through the spectacle frame through one or more through-holes. The frictional force with respect to the spectacle frame can be increased, and the locking member can be firmly fixed to the spectacle frame.

  In this case, as long as the eyeglass frame locking means of the locking member is formed with two through-holes having an approximate shape of 8 for allowing the spectacle frame to be inserted continuously, the locking member is the eyeglass frame. In addition to preventing displacement, the posture can also be fixed. Therefore, since the locking member does not wobble during use, the user is stable without feeling frequent changes in the support position of the mask, and is troublesome such that the locking member wobbles and hits the side face of the face. I don't feel it. Therefore, there is an advantage that the user can feel a sense of stability when wearing the mask.

  In this case, it is more preferable to select a resin material (for example, elastomer or silicone) having a large frictional force with the spectacle frame as the material of the locking member, and by setting the frictional force against the spectacle frame high, On the other hand, the locking member can be more firmly fixed, and the position shift can be further prevented. Further, if the inner diameter of the through hole of the eyeglass frame locking means of the locking member is set so as to be in close contact with the outer diameter of the eyeglass frame, the mutual frictional force action can be surely exhibited.

  Further, in the present invention, if the ear hooking member locking means is an annular structure portion having a notch, and the ear hooking member is locked to the annular structure portion through the notch, the ear hooking member has an annular structure. The side of the ear hooking member can be inserted through the notch without being inserted from the end of the ear hooking member when inserting into the part, and since the mounting work is easy, the user can easily attach and detach the mask, making it easy to use Can have an excellent effect of being good.

  In the present invention, an uneven portion is also formed on the spectacle frame, so that an annular portion of the end portion of the ear hooking member formed on the uneven portion or the spectacle frame locking means of the locking member is formed on the uneven portion. It is more preferable that it can be locked and the mutual displacement can be prevented more reliably.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  1 to 6 show examples of the mask holder according to the embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 7 shows a comparative example. In the figure, the same reference numerals indicate the same items.

  FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing a state in which a mask is attached to a spectacle frame by the mask holder according to the first embodiment, FIG. 2 is an enlarged explanatory view around the mask holder in FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is an enlarged view around the mask holder according to the second embodiment. FIG. 4 is an enlarged explanatory view around the mask holder according to the third embodiment, FIG. 5 is an enlarged explanatory view around the mask holder according to the fourth embodiment, and FIG. 6 is an explanatory view of the use state of the mask holder according to the first embodiment. FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram of a use state in which the mask according to the comparative example is directly put on the ear.

  As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the mask holder A according to the embodiment includes a covering main body 10 made of cloth or paper such as non-woven fabric or gauze having air permeability that covers a breathing part of a person at the nose or mouth, and A hollow hole 16 through which the end 12a of the ear hooking member 12 is inserted is formed in the mask 14 made of a string-like ear hooking member 12 made of a rubber string or the like provided on the opposite side portions 10a and 10a of the covering body. Then, with the end 12a of the ear hooking member 12 inserted through the hollow hole 16, the ear hooking member 12 is put on the frame 18 of the spectacles (specifically, a “vine” 18a for hanging on the ears on the left and right sides of the spectacles). , 18a) is provided with a locking member (also referred to as a locking jig) 20 for locking.

  The locking member 20 according to the first embodiment is a cylindrical body in which the hollow hole 16 is formed. The bent end portion 12a of the ear hooking member 12 is inserted into the hollow hole 16 from one side, and the end portion 12a is protruded from the other side. The locking member 20 is in a state where the middle portion 12b of the ear hooking member 12 in the hollow hole 16 is narrowed, and an annular portion (ring-shaped portion) 12a 'is formed at the end 12a of the ear hooking member 12. Thereafter, the ear hooking member 12 is held on the spectacle frame 18 through the temple 18a of the spectacle frame in the annular portion 12a '.

  Further, the locking member 20 has a cross-sectional area of the hollow hole 16 smaller than the cross-sectional area of two of the ear hooking members 12, and is formed of a flexible elastic body (various plastics or the like). Thus, the locking member 20 squeezes the ear hook member 12.

  In the mask holder according to the first embodiment, the end 12a of the ear hooking member 12 is inserted into the hollow hole 16 by the locking member 20 in which the hollow hole 16 through which the end 12a of the ear hooking member 12 is inserted is formed. Since the ear hooking member 12 is locked to the spectacle frame (vine 18a) in this state, the mask 14 is not supported by the ear and is supported by the spectacle frame 18, so that no burden is imposed on the ear. Therefore, even if a person wearing spectacles wears the mask 14, it is possible to prevent an increase in the burden on the ear and to prevent an increase in pain and discomfort around the ear.

  Further, the locking member 20 is a cylindrical body in which the hollow hole 16 is formed, the ear hooking member 12 is inserted into the hollow hole 16, and the middle portion 12b of the ear hooking member is squeezed to end the ear hooking member 12. An annular portion 12a ′ is formed in the portion 12a, and the ear hooking member 12 is held on the spectacle frame 18 through the spectacle frame (vine 18a) in the annular portion 12a ′. Therefore, the ear hooking member 12 such as a rubber strap of an existing mask. The mask 14 can be locked to the spectacle frame 18 by a simple configuration and operation in which the lens is inserted into the hollow hole 16 of the locking member 20 and only passed through the spectacle frame 18, and since the structure is simple, the size and weight can be easily reduced. It is also suitable for mass production and requires less expenses.

  Further, when the locking member 20 is mounted, the end portion of the ear hooking member can be pulled out of the locking member 20 so that the annular portion 12a 'can be easily enlarged and easily adjusted, so that it can be easily attached to the spectacle frame 18. At the same time, if the ear hooking member 12 is retracted into the locking member 20 in the opposite direction, the eyeglass frame 18 can be easily tightened and fixed.

  The locking member 20 is formed of a flexible elastic body in which the cross-sectional area of the hollow hole 16 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the two ear hooking members 12. Therefore, because of the elastic force of the locking member 20 itself and the small size of the hollow hole 16, the ear hooking member 12 that is passed through the hollow hole 16 is tightly held on the inner wall surface of the hollow hole 16, and the pinching force is increased. The locking member 20 is less likely to be displaced with respect to the member 12.

  Further, by forming the locking member 20 by selecting a resin material (for example, a soft resin material such as polyethylene) that is not slippery and has a large frictional force with the ear hooking member 12, The locking member 20 is difficult to slip and can prevent further displacement.

  Next, the mask holder according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The same parts as those in FIGS. 1 and 2 are denoted by the same reference numerals.

  As shown in FIG. 3, in the mask holder according to the second embodiment, the locking member 20 </ b> A has an overall shape in which two through-holes 22 a and 22 b are formed, and has an approximately 8-letter shape. The forming part of the hole 22a constitutes the spectacle frame locking means 24a for inserting the spectacle frame (the temple 18a), and the forming part of the other through hole 22b has the ear hooking member locking means 24b for locking the ear hooking member 12. Constitute.

  According to the mask holder according to the second embodiment, since the locking member 20A allows the spectacle frame 18 to be inserted through the through hole 22a, the frictional force on the spectacle frame 18 is set high depending on the material, size, and friction setting of the locking member 20A. The locking member 20A can be reliably fixed to the spectacle frame. In this case, the frictional force with respect to the spectacle frame 18 can be set high by selecting a resin material (for example, elastomer or silicone) having a large frictional force with the spectacle frame 18 as the material of the locking member 20A. On the other hand, the locking member 20A can be more firmly fixed, and the displacement can be further prevented. Further, if the inner diameter of the through-hole 22a of the spectacle frame locking means 24a of the locking member 20A is set to a size that closely contacts the outer diameter of the temple 18a of the spectacle frame, the mutual frictional force action can be reliably exerted. Can do.

  Next, the mask holder according to the third embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The same parts as those in FIG. 3 are denoted by the same reference numerals.

  As shown in FIG. 4, in the mask holder according to the third embodiment, the ear hooking member locking means 24b ′ for locking the ear hooking member 12 of the locking member 20B is replaced with the ear hooking member locking means of the second embodiment. Unlike 24b, it is an annular structure part in which a notch 26 is formed. In this locking member 20B, the ear hooking member locking means 24b 'for locking the ear hooking member 12 to the annular structure portion through the notch 26 is used. Other configurations are the same as those of the second embodiment.

  According to the mask holder of the third embodiment, the ear hooking member locking means 24b ′ is an annular structure having the notch 26, and the ear hooking member 12 is locked to the annular structure through the notch. The ear hooking member side portion (intermediate portion 12 b) can be inserted through the notch 26 without being inserted from the end portion 12 a of the ear hooking member 12 when the hooking member 12 is inserted into the annular structure portion. Therefore, the mounting operation is easy, the user can easily attach and detach the mask, and it is easy to use.

  Next, the mask holder according to Embodiment 4 will be described with reference to FIG. Parts similar to those in FIGS. 3 and 4 are denoted by the same reference numerals.

  As shown in FIG. 5, in the mask holder according to the fourth embodiment, the locking member 20 </ b> B of the third embodiment has the spectacle frame locking means 24 a through which the through hole 22 a is inserted into the spectacle frame (vine 18 a). Unlike the structure, the locking member 20C has three through-holes 28a, 28b, 32, and the two through-holes 28a, 28b pass through the spectacle frame (vine 18a). The stop means 30 is configured, and the other through-hole 32 configures the ear hook member locking means 34 for locking the ear hook member 12. In this case, the eyeglass frame locking means 30 of the locking member 20C is formed with two through holes 28a and 28b having an approximately 8 shape, and the eyeglass frame (vine 18a) is slightly bent to form the through hole. 28a and 28b can be continuously inserted.

  Therefore, since the spectacle frame 18 is inserted through the two through holes 28a and 28b of the spectacle frame locking means 30 (one or more examples), the frictional force of the locking member 20C against the spectacle frame can be increased. The locking member 20 </ b> C can be firmly fixed to the frame 18, and misalignment hardly occurs. Further, not only can the locking member 20C be prevented from being displaced with respect to the spectacle frame 18, but also the posture can be fixed. Therefore, since the locking member 20C does not wobble during use, the user is stable without feeling frequent changes in the support position of the mask 14, and the locking member 20C wobbles and hits the side of the face. There is no annoyance. Therefore, the user feels a sense of stability when wearing the mask 14, and the feeling of use is much better than the conventional product.

  In addition, by selecting a resin material (for example, elastomer or silicone) having a large frictional force with the spectacle frame 18 as the material of the locking member 20C, the frictional force with respect to the spectacle frame 18 is set to be high. Even if the dimensions of the through holes 28a and 28b of the means 30 are slightly deviated from the outer diameter of the spectacle frame (vine 18a), the locking member 20C can be firmly fixed to the spectacle frame 18 and the position is shifted. Further prevention can be achieved. Of course, if the inner diameters of the through holes 28a and 28b of the eyeglass frame locking means 30 of the locking member 20C are set so as to be in close contact with the outer diameter of the eyeglass frame, the mutual frictional force action can be surely exhibited. More preferable.

  The ear hooking member locking means 34 of the locking member 20c is an annular structure having a notch 26 in the through-hole 32, similarly to the ear hooking member locking means 24b ′ of the third embodiment. The same effects as those of the third embodiment can be obtained with respect to the fixing of the member 12.

  Next, the result of comparing the mask holder embodying the present invention with a comparative example of a conventional ear hook mask will be described. FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram of a state in which the user wears the mask 14 by the mask holder A of the locking member 20 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram of a state in which a normal mask 14 as a comparative example is mounted as it is with the ear hooking member 12 of the ear hook string.
