Head and face protecting hood

Claim 2

A head and face protecting hood comprising: an outer cover body made up of a front wall and a rear wall, said walls being attached to each other at edges thereof except at the bottom edges through which the wearer's head fits for putting the hood on; said front and rear walls having an outer layer which is made of a laminate of non-flammable polyvinyl chloride sheet and non-flammable fiber sheet and having an inner layer spaced from said outer layer attached to the edges of said front and rear wall outer layer, said inner layer being made of adiabatic material and extending so as to cover the whole head and face of the wearer; and an eyepiece positioned in front of the eyes which is secured to said front wall of said cover body, said front wall having an opening for fitting said eyepiece being made of a non-flammable transparent polyvinyl chloride material for allowing vision therethrough.

Claim 3

A head and face protecting hood comprising: an outer cover body made up of a front wall and a rear wall, said walls being attached to each other at edges thereof except, at the bottom edges through which the wearer's head fits for putting the hood on; said front and rear walls having an outer layer which is made of a laminate of non-flammable polyvinyl chloride sheet and non-flammable fiber sheet and having an inner layer spaced from said outer layer attached to the edges of said front and rear wall outer layer, said inner layer being made of adiabatic material and extending so as to cover the whole head and face of the wearer; an eyepiece body positioned in front of the eyes and which is secured to said front wall of said cover body, said front wall having an opening for fitting said eyepiece body therein, said eyepiece body being made of a non-flammable transparent polyvinyl chloride material for allowing vision therethrough; a mouthpiece body facing the mouth and which is secured to said front wall below said eyepiece body, said mouthpiece body having a front and rear composite layer, each of said front and rear composite layers having a first layer portion made of a laminate of perforated non-flammable fiber sheet and a second layer portion made of a permeable adiabatic material, said second layer portion being adhered to said first layer portion at the edges thereof; and a poison absorbing agent which is contained within and covered by an adiabatic fiber layer being disposed between said front and rear composite layers.

Claim 4

A head and face protecting hood comprising: an outer cover body made up of a front wall and a rear wall, said walls being attached to each other at edges thereof except, at the bottom edges through which the wearer's head fits for putting the hood on; said front and rear walls having an outer layer which is made of a laminate of non-flammable polyvinyl chloride sheet and non-flammable fiber sheet and having an inner layer spaced from said outer layer attached to the edges of said front and rear wall outer layer, said inner layer being made of adiabatic material and extending so as to cover the whole head and face of the wearer; an eyepiece body positioned in front of the eyes and which is secured to said front wall of said cover body, said front wall having an opening for fitting said eyepiece body therein, said eyepiece body being made of a non-flammable transparent polyvinyl chloride material for allowing vision therethrough; a mouthpiece body facing the mouth and which is secured to said front wall below said eyepiece body, said mouthpiece body having a front and rear composite layer, each of said front and rear composite layers having a first layer portion made of a laminate of perforated non-flammable fiber sheet and a second layer portion made of a permeable adiabatic material, said second layer portion being adhered to said first layer portion at the edges thereof; and a poison absorbing agent which is contained within and covered by an adiabatic fiber layer being disposed between said front and rear composite layers.

Claim 5

A head and face protecting hood as claimed in claim 2 wherein said eyepiece body has a size for covering most of the face and further having said mouthpiece body being mounted on and through said eyepiece body below the eyes and in front of the mouth.

Claim 6

A head and face protecting hood as claimed in claim 2 wherein said poison absorbing agent comprises: a chlorine absorbing agent which is disposed at the outer most portion of said second body, a carbon monoxide absorbing agent which is disposed in the middle of said second body and a zeolite which is disposed at the innermost portion of said second body, each of said chlorine absorbing agent, carbon monoxide absorbing agent and zeolite being separately covered with said adiabatic fiber layer.

Claim 7

A head and face protecting hood as claimed in claim 2 wherein said inner layer of said front and rear portions of said cover body and said second layer portion of said composite layers of said second body are made of non-woven fiber.
