A mask or shield comprising a flow of positive pressure air directed through substantially opposing jets that creates a stream of laminar flow filtered air to create a turbulent air pocket therein for supplying filtered breathing air to a wearer's face and to exclude outside unpurified air. Also a mask or shield comprising a flow of positive pressure air directed via a powered impeller unit that is configured to distribute positively pressurised filtered breathable air inside the face mask in a substantially 360° plane or arc substantially parallel to the internal surface of the face mask and to exclude external unpurified air. The mask is separated from and does not form a seal around a wearer's face unless required such as in a deadly environment or malfunction. |

One or more battery-operated fans are integrated into a hard hat and pull air through a filter to remove contaminants in the air. The filtered air passes through one or more channels in the hard hat and exits the hard hat through an air curtain exit located near the user's face. The exiting air leaves with sufficient velocity to form an air curtain. A user wearing goggles or other protective eyewear will have the filtered air current pass in front of the eyewear. Paint and other contaminant particles that are in the air will not be able to contact the outer surface of the eyewear, as the particles will not be able to pass through the curtain of filtered air. |

A hat includes a shell, and an air filtration system for providing a protective stream of air across the face of the wearer of the hat. The shell defines an exterior of the hat. At the back of the shell is a fan housing which contains a fan and defines an interior through which air is passed through the hat. The filtration system includes a filter cartridge and a retaining basket. The filter cartridge includes a filter medium. The filter system is removeably positioned adjacent to and across the fan housing so as to filter air passing into the interior of the hat. The filter cartridge is removeably engaged to the retaining basket. The retaining basket retains the cartridge to the hat and ensures proper positioning of the filter cartridge. |

An air-supply device (1) for supplying breathing air into a breathing-air region (2) has at least one inflow opening (4, 6) for supplying breathing air, and also has an interior (10) and at least one outflow region (11), via which breathing air flows out into the breathing-air region (2). The inflow opening (4, 6) is connected to the outflow region (11) via the interior (10). The outflow region (11) is connected to the outflow region (11) via the interior (10). The outflow region (11) is formed on a flexible, air-permeable material (12). In order to provide for flexible use of the air-supply device (1) and to avoid any significant adverse effect to a user, provision is made for the air-supply device (1) to have a sheet-like, flexible portion (16), which has a first flat side (7) and a second flat side (8), located opposite the first. The outflow region (11) is arranged on the first flat side (7). The interior (10) is formed between the first flat side (7) and the second flat side (8). In the interior (10), at least the outflow region (11) has arranged on it at least one spacer, which prevents the outflow region (11) from butting against the second flat side (8). |
