Reusable 3D-Printed Face Mask

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.

VentilAid helps breathing, prevents alveoli from collapsing and monitors patients health. Major features Compactness and mobility Universal power supply Automatic function in CPAP and BiPAP modes FiO2 do 70%, Up to 70% FiO2 Pressure up to 15 cm H2O (wi th a greater technical capablity of up to 30cm H2O) The device adapts to the breathing rhythm of the patient https://www.ventilaid.org/ventilaid-breathing-device-mk-iii/

Mask Strap Efficiency This simple but useful tool is designed to make face masks less painful to wear for medical workers treating coronavirus patients. The part is made by printing a set, and then connecting with any filament which will also set its width. In this way, the filament which is needed for a single print is reduced and 18 sets on a 250x250mm print bed are allowed. Small protrusions on both sides of the plastic buckle hold the mask strap and the mask strap does not exert painful pressure on the ears. References: Michael B. ( 2020 ). Prusa Printers.

COVID19 Glove Remover Hook to remove the gloves after use. Designed to hang on a door, without installation. After removing both gloves, we can throw them away by holding the hook at the back, without having to make contact with the gloves. There are three models for different door thicknesses: 35mm, 40mm and 45mm link: https://grabcad.com/library/covid19-glove-remover-1
