1. The Invention (2nd of 3)
Title Weldmask
The problems the
inventor(s) wanted to solve In usual single window masks, welder
must remove or tilt back the entire mask in
order to view his work. Also, breathing therethough
is uncomfortable and leads to fogging of the single lens from the
breath’s condensed moisture.
Description. This weldmask
is fitted with two lens windows: a dark lens is mounted forward of the eyes of the viewer and a clear lens
extends obliquely away from across the top of the dark lens towards the face of the wearer. the front panel of the mask is provided with a perpendicularly
projecting breathing port aligned with the welder’s nose with 3 filtered passageways
for allowing air to flow therefrom.
Presentation. Comprising a curved shell adapted to
shield the face and provided with one clear and one dark lens windows to view
the workpiece respectively prior to welding and during l plus a breathing port fitted
with passagewarys for allowing air to flow therefrom.
Fields of application.
Arc welding
Advantages To view the workpiece prior to welding through the clear lens window, a
wearer need only tilt his head a little distance
forward, without the necessity of using both his hands. To counteract lens fogging and for
welder’s increased breathing comfort, the front panel of the mask is provided
with a perpendicularly projecting breathing port aligned with the welder’s nose
with 3 filtered passageways for allowing air to flow therefrom.
