Reusable 3D-Printed Face Mask

By
   
   Rowan University engineering and clinical college students have evolved a prototype for a durable, lightweight, reusable face masks to reinforce the deliver of face masks at some stage in the modern scarcity of PPE all through the COVID-19 outbreak. Developed in collaboration with clinical professionals, the mask prototype might also serve in medical and discipline use. If printed, used, and maintained correctly, the mask provides a durable, reusable mechanical barrier.



Ease of installation and use

   The prototype offers components: a contoured mask and filter housing. No special tools are needed for assembly. The replaceable nonwoven clear out materials endorsed for the filter out housing are extensively available. The masks may be printed in three sizes, all with the equal size clear out housing. The contoured mask can be more intently molded to the user’s face by using submerging the rims in hot water and pressing it to reform the form in opposition to the face.

New ventilator mask protects entire face from coronavirus

By
https://www.israel21c.org/new-ventilator-mask-protects-entire-face-from-coronavirus/ Many people are wearing facemasks to avoid breathing airborne coronavirus particles, and to keep from touching their noses and mouths. However, even N95 masks can’t fully block tiny virus particles and can’t kill the virus (two masks  under development in Israel  aim to do that). Any blocked viral particles stay on the mask’s surface and pose a hazard when handled and thrown away. Furthermore, facemasks don’t cover eyes. Although the nose is the main route for coronavirus into the lungs,  some researchers believe  the eye’s conjunctiva is another possible point of entry. That’s why Israeli physician and serial medical-device inventor Dr. Noam Gavriely worked quickly to develop what he calls the  ViriMASK Protective Oculo-Respirator . ViriMASK is strapped around the head, covering the eyes with a see-through visor and the nose and mouth with a filtering mechanism....

Patient Isolation Stretcher Cover PPE to be used while transporting the patient with infectious disease in ambulance or within hospital. The plastic cover can be made with transparent TPU or 16 gauge clear vinyl material and the rods from 1/2 inch ABS pipes. The overall dimensions are kept as 2mx0.6mx0.6m. Plastic zippers to be attached on the sides of the fattened plastic. 8 4" wide glove ports are provided for attaching nitrile gloves on the sides. For air circulation - At the inlet, use 2 HEPA filters 0.3micrometer, 99.99% or more. At the outlet, use HEPA filter along with filters for biological substances. In the Exhaust box, use one way valve and exhaust fan. Usually a 5CFM exhaust fan will provide a ventialtion of 12 times per hour for this volume of containment. A 12 Volt battery is used to power the exhaust unit. A pouch can be attached to the canopy, for holding the battery link: https://grabcad.com/library/patient-isolation-stretcher-cover-1
