摘要:
An apparatus for indicating a strapping force applied by a headgear of a patient interface device. The apparatus includes a first portion structured to be selectively connectable to a connecting element of a mask of the patient interface device, a second portion structured to be selectively connectable to a strap of the headgear, and a force gauging mechanism coupled to the first portion and the second portion. The force gauging mechanism is structured to gauge and indicate a force being applied by the headgear in response to the second strap portion being pulled by the strap of the headgear.

A garment having a tubing management system incorporated therein is provided. The tubing management system includes at least one conduit and a coupling system for the conduit. The coupling system has at least one coupling point, which is located, for example, at the neck opening of the garment. The coupling system defines a path for the conduit, i.e., there is more than one attachment point, therefore the path of the conduit may be controlled. In this configuration, the conduit moves with the user and, as such, there is a reduced chance that the user's movements, even while asleep, will cause the facemask to be pulled from its proper position.

An assembly including a first component and a second component movably coupled to the first component. The second component is formed about and coupled to at least a portion of the first component via an over-molding process.
摘要:
An assembly (22, 50, 60, 100, 110, 130) including a first component (30, 54, 70, 112, 132) and a second component (40, 56, 80, 120, 140) movably coupled to the first component. The second component is formed about and coupled to at least a portion of the first component via an over-molding process.

A patient interface device is provided that includes a patient sealing assembly and a headgear assembly coupled to the patient sealing assembly. The headgear assembly includes an adjustment mechanism having a first portion, a second portion, and a fastening mechanism. The first portion has a first end and an opposite second end, with the first end being coupled to the patient sealing assembly. The second portion has a first end and an opposite second end, the first end movably coupled to the second end of the first portion and the second end coupled to a portion of the headgear assembly. The second portion is movable among a first position in which the first and second portions are generally aligned and a second position in which the first and second portions are disposed generally parallel. The fastening mechanism fastens the first and second portions in the second position.

A patient interface device (8, 8′) for delivering a flow of breathing gas to an airway of a patient includes a grooved adjustment mechanism (20, 58, 78) having a main body (22, 60) formed from an elastic material, the main body having an outer surface having a plurality of convolutions (80) provided therein. Each convolution including a groove (24, 62, 84), and each convolution has a stiffness associated therewith. The stiffnesses associated with the convolutions increase from a first side of the main body to a second side of the main body.
