Abstract

The invention relates to a device made up of filtering microfibre fabrics ( 1 ) which are thermofused ( 2 ), this method providing a sealed reinforcement. Its base has an internal seam ( 3 ). Its elasticated drawstrings ( 4 ) make it adaptable to all sizes, and their stitching ( 5 ) ensures its sturdiness. With its large internal air volume ( 6 ), the user's nostrils ( 7 ) and mouth ( 8 ) are not in contact with the fabric. This protection is easy to use, simple, comfortable and hygienic. It dries very fast and can be reused very quickly.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 .- 7 . (canceled) 
     
     
         8 . An accessory for protecting a user's face, in the form of a flexible protective beak, wherein it comprises:
 two isosceles triangles made of fabric;   two elastic cords,   the two isosceles triangles being fusion-bonded along 2 equal exterior edges in order to obtain an assembly with a fully hermetic seam which forms the framework of the flexible protective beak, then the assembly is turned inside out in order to make the seam invisible with hidden edges,   the accessory being dimensioned so that it provides protection of the face extending from the top of the nose to the bottom of the neck, and so that fastening it by knotting the two elastic cords behind the neck, allows this accessory to be adapted to fit all sizes of face.   
     
     
         9 . The accessory as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein its flexible protective beak shape which is obtained because of the isosceles triangles offers an interior air volume that allows for breathing. 
     
     
         10 . The accessory as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the walls of the flexible protective beak are intended to be kept away from the mouth and the nostrils of the user so that the fabric does not cling to the face when the user inhales air. 
     
     
         11 . The accessory as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the fabric has a composition made up of layers of microfiber fabric, which composition is configured to provide a high level of filtration of the ambient air and prevent allergies. 
     
     
         12 . A method for manufacturing a protective accessory in the form of a flexible protective beak as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein it involves fusion-bonding the two isosceles triangles along the 2 equal exterior edges in order to obtain a fully hermetic seam which forms the framework of the flexible protective beak, and the fusion-bonded assembly is turned inside out in order to obtain an invisible seam with hidden edges.
