In an opposing relation to the open bottom part 24 of the cover 20, an opening 4 capable of receiving a socket portion 6 of the breathing mask for the patient is placed. In the lateral portions 7 and 9 of the cover 20, openings 3a and 3b for cheeks, through which the breathing mask for the patient is seen, are placed. The shape of the cover can be changed by placing the jaw portion 8c and cheek portions 8a and 8b of the cover 20 in a deformable way by applying pressure. In the lower ends of the lateral portions 7 and 9 of the cover 20, at least one, for example, hook type hook 2, which fixes a strap for fixing the cover 20 and the breathing mask for the patient to the face of the patient, is placed. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO</p> |
