  Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. However, the scope of the invention is not limited to the illustrated examples.

[First embodiment]
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a mask 100 according to a first embodiment of the invention to which the present invention is applied.
In the following description, the face side is the rear side, and the opposite side is the front side. Further, the upper side in the state where the mask 100 is worn is the upper part, the lower side is the lower part, the left hand side of the wearer is the left, and the right hand side is the right.

  The mask 100 is, for example, a disposable pleated mask 100. Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the mask main body covers the nose, mouth, chin (target part) and the like of the wearer's face. 1 and a pair of left and right ear hooks 2 and 2 for locking the mask main body 1 to the wearer's ear, and the mask body 100 at the rear side (inside). And an inner sheet 3 in contact with a target part such as a nose or a mouth of the face.

The mask main body 1 is formed, for example, in a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front, and a plurality of pleats 11 formed along the left-right direction are formed in the up-down direction. Moreover, the edge part of the right-and-left both sides of the mask main-body part 1 is being fixed so that the pleat 11 may not expand.
When the mask 100 is worn, the pleats 11 spread in the vertical direction at the center in the left-right direction, so that the mask main body 1 bulges outward so that the nose of the face of the wearer The mouth and chin are covered.

The mask main body 1 is formed of a sheet material, and the sheet material is formed of a single fabric or a plurality of superposed fabrics such as a spunbond nonwoven fabric, a melt blown nonwoven fabric, a spunlace nonwoven fabric, a gauze, a towel cloth, and the like. ing.
The manufacturing method of the mask body 1 may be any known method, and detailed description thereof is omitted.

A pair of left and right ear hooks 2 and 2 are provided on both edges 12 in the left and right direction of the mask main body 1.
Each of the pair of left and right ear hooks 2 and 2 may be, for example, a flat string, and a rubber string may be sewn and the whole may have elasticity.
One end of the left ear hook 2 is sewn to the upper end of the left edge of the mask body 1 and the other end is fixed to the lower edge of the left edge of the mask body 1 by bonding or welding.
Also, one end of the right ear hook 2 is sewn to the upper end of the right edge of the mask body 1 and the other end is fixed to the lower edge of the right edge of the mask body 1 by bonding or welding. .

[Internal sheet]
FIG. 2 is a side view of the mask main body 1 and the inner sheet 3 provided on the rear surface of the mask body 1 in a state where the pleats 11 are not spread, and FIG. 3 is a rear view of the mask 100.
The inner sheet 3 has a sheet material 32 disposed on the rear surface side of the mask main body 1 and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 31 that adheres the sheet material 32 to the rear surface of the mask main body portion 1 and is worn in layers. A deodorant 33 is disposed on the rear side of the sheet material 32 that is the inside (front side) as viewed from the user.

The sheet material 32 is made of, for example, a spunbond nonwoven fabric, a melt blown nonwoven fabric, a spunlace nonwoven fabric, a poorly water-soluble paper, or the like.
Although not shown in the drawing, the sheet material 32 is formed with a plurality of pleats formed along the left-right direction in the vertical direction, like the mask main body 1. For this reason, when the pleats 11 of the mask main body 1 are expanded in the vertical direction, the sheet material 32 can also be expanded in the vertical direction, forming a mountain-shaped three-dimensional shape, Can cover chin etc.

  In addition, the sheet material 32 is formed in an arrangement in which innumerable through holes h penetrating the front and back surfaces are dispersed over the entire plane of the sheet material 32. The plurality of through holes h are for partially cutting the sheet material 32, and may be formed with regular arrangement at regular intervals, or may be formed with random arrangement.

A preferred specific example of the plurality of through holes h will be described. As shown in FIG. 4A, the through holes h are preferably formed in a slit shape having a length of 1 mm to 5 mm in the left-right direction of the mask.
Moreover, as shown in FIG. 4B, the through-hole h may include a slit having a length of 1 mm to 5 mm in the left-right direction and a slit having a length of 1 mm to 5 mm in the vertical direction.
Further, as shown in FIG. 4C, the through hole h may be formed from a cross-shaped slit having a length of 1 mm to 5 mm in the left-right direction of the mask and 1 mm to 5 mm in the vertical direction.
Further, the slit-like through hole h may be formed in an obliquely inclined direction as shown in FIG.
Further, the through-hole h is not limited to the slit shape, and may be formed from a circle of 1 to 2 mm in the left-right direction of the mask and 1 mm to 2 mm in the up-down direction.
In any case, it is preferable to form the through-holes h at an arrangement and interval at which the fibers forming the sheet are cut within a range of 3 mm to 7 mm.

An adhesive layer 31 is formed on the entire front surface of the sheet material 32.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive constituting the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 31 is a pressure-sensitive adhesive with low allergenicity and has a sufficiently small influence on the human body in consideration of the presence of odors and volatile components. Since it is pressure sensitive, it is difficult to cause curing due to a chemical reaction, and long-term adhesiveness can be maintained.
Since the sheet material 32 is scheduled to be partially cut, the adhesive force of the adhesive layer 31 is adjusted to such an extent that it can be easily peeled by pulling the sheet material 32 by hand.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 31 is not limited to the case where the pressure-sensitive adhesive forms a layer on the entire surface, and may be dispersed and arranged in a dot shape on the entire surface.

The deodorant 33 is dispersed or impregnated over the entire rear surface of the front sheet material 32. As the deodorant 33, cyclodextrin is used. A deodorant composed of such cyclodextrin can take in mercaptan and other malodorous components, which are malodorous components of bad breath, when exposed to external moisture, thereby exhibiting a deodorizing effect.
Further, a perfume may be included in the cyclodextrin in advance. In that case, cyclodextrin takes in malodorous components and releases the fragrance inside it instead. Thereby, cyclodextrin can also obtain a fragrance effect and functions as a fragrance.

The deodorant 33 may be a microcapsule in which a reagent such as tea catechin, polyphenol, popidone iodine or the like as a mouth odor preventing agent is enclosed. In addition to the prevention of bad breath, other deodorizing components may be enclosed in the microcapsules.
Further, instead of the deodorant, a fragrance made of microcapsules enclosing a fragrance may be dispersed or impregnated in the sheet material 32 described above.

[How to wear a mask]
When the mask 100 is worn, the left and right ear hooks 2 and 2 are hooked on the left and right ears, respectively, with the rear side of the mask main body 1 facing the wearer. After the left and right ear hooks 2 and 2 are hooked, the pleats 11 of the mask main body 1 and the pleats of the inner sheet 3 are pulled up and down to make the mask main body 1 and the inner sheet 3 convex forward. Transform to shape.

And when time passes since a wear start and dirts, such as saliva, a lipstick, a runny nose, and sweat, have adhered to the sheet | seat material 32 of the back side of the internal sheet 3, as shown in FIG. Only the adhering portion is partially cut along the through hole h of the sheet material 32. As a result, a clean surface is exposed and can be kept clean inside the mask 100.
Moreover, a part of the rear surface of the front sheet material 32 is exposed by partially cutting the rear sheet material 32. Since the deodorant 33 is dispersed or impregnated on the rear surface of the sheet material 32, the deodorizing effect is exhibited.
Further, when the fragrance is dispersed or impregnated on the rear surface of the front sheet material 32, the fragrance effect is exhibited.

[Technical effects of the embodiment]
As described above, the mask 100 includes the sheet material 32 in which a plurality of through holes h are formed and can be partially excised along the plurality of through holes h. The sheet material 32 can be removed by cutting, and the amount of consumption of the sheet material 32 can be reduced as compared with the case where all the sheet materials 32 are discarded, and a cost-effective mask can be provided.
In addition, since the sheet material 32 is partially cut away, even if a new dirt adhesion site occurs, the portion can be cut off again, and a mask that can be used for a long time can be provided. It becomes.

Further, since the plurality of through holes h formed in the sheet material 32 are dispersedly arranged along the plane of the sheet material, only a portion to which dirt is attached can be excised regardless of the arrangement of the through holes h. Since the removal of the excessive range can be avoided, the cost is higher and the life can be extended.
In particular, when the through hole h has a slit shape, excision in the direction along the slit becomes easy. In addition, when slits having different directions are mixed, it is easy to cut the sheet material 32 into an arbitrary shape.

  Further, since the deodorant 33 (or fragrance) is disposed on the rear surface of the front sheet material 32 by dispersion or impregnation, the deodorization effect (or fragrance effect) is exhibited by partial excision of the rear sheet material 32. In addition, the wearer can obtain a refreshing feeling as if a new mask was newly attached. At that time, the deodorizing effect (or fragrance effect) can be adjusted according to the amount of excision of the rear sheet material 32.

[Second Embodiment]
With respect to the masks described in the second and subsequent embodiments, all differences from the mask 100 of FIG. 1 will be described exclusively, and description of the same configuration as the mask of FIG. 1 will be omitted.
FIG. 6 is a rear view of the mask 100A according to the second embodiment. The mask 100A includes an inner sheet 3A having two layers of sheet material 32A in which the arrangement of the through holes h is different.

Each sheet material 32A of the inner sheet 3A is formed with a plurality of through holes h arranged in a line along the left-right direction at the center of the plane in the up-down direction.
Further, the same adhesive layer as the mask 100 is formed on the front side of each sheet material 32A.
Further, the same deodorant 33A as the above-described deodorant 33 is dispersed or impregnated on the rear side of the front sheet material 32A.

The inner sheet 3A can divide each sheet material 32A vertically into two by the line-shaped through-holes h. Therefore, when dirt is attached to either the upper or lower area of the sheet material 32A when the mask 100A is worn, the upper or lower dirty part can be cut out along the through hole h. For example, when dirt adheres to the lower part of the sheet material 32A, the lower half of the sheet material 32A is cut out along the line of the through hole h as shown in FIG.
Further, when the above-mentioned excision is performed on the rear sheet material 32A, the deodorant 33A disposed in the upper half of the rear surface side of the front sheet material 32A is exposed, and a deodorizing effect is exhibited.

As described above, the mask 100A can cut and remove only one of the upper and lower portions to which the dirt is attached, so that the consumption of the sheet material is reduced as compared with the case where all the sheet materials 32A are discarded. Therefore, a mask with high cost can be provided.
In addition, since the sheet material 32A is partially cut away, even if a new dirt adhesion portion is generated in the remaining portion, the portion can be cut off again, and a mask that can be used for a long time is provided. It becomes possible.
Furthermore, since the deodorant 33A is arranged on the rear surface of the front sheet material 32A, the deodorizing effect is exhibited by partial excision of the rear sheet material 32, and the wearer can obtain a refreshing feeling.

Further, since the plurality of through holes h formed in the sheet material 32A are dispersedly arranged along the plane of the sheet material 32A, it is possible to cut out only the part to which dirt is attached regardless of the arrangement of the through holes h. In addition, since removal of an excessive range can be avoided, the cost is further increased and the life can be extended.
Further, since the plurality of through holes h of the sheet material 32A are formed side by side in a line shape, the excision work can be easily performed when the excision is performed along the line.

In addition, although the case where the through-hole h was formed along only one line along the left-right direction was illustrated in FIG. 6, the direction and the number of the lines are arbitrary, and the through-hole h is formed according to the purpose of use. You may divide more complicatedly with a line.
Of course, in the case of this mask 100A, a fragrance may be arranged in place of the deodorant 33A.

[Third embodiment]
FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the mask 100B according to the third embodiment, taken along the vertical and front-back directions.
The mask 100B includes a deodorizing sheet 33B containing a deodorant on the rear surface of the front sheet member 32B.

The mask body 1B has the same material and the same structure as the mask body 1 described above.
Moreover, the sheet | seat material 32B and the adhesive layer 31B which consist of the same material and the same structure as the sheet | seat material 32 and the adhesive layer 31 which were mentioned above are laminated | stacked doubly.
And the some deodorizing sheet 33B is adhering by the arrangement | positioning which avoids the several through-hole h of the sheet | seat material 32B at the rear surface side of the mask main-body part 1B. The deodorizing sheet 33B is dispersed or impregnated with the same deodorizing agent as the deodorizing agent 33 of the mask 100.

  In the mask main body 1B of the mask 100B having the above-described configuration, moisture contained in the breath of the wearer is exposed to the deodorant of the deodorant sheet 33B, and the bad breath component is replaced with the deodorant and the fragrance in the cyclodextrin. The bad breath is deodorized or the fragrance is diffused inside the mask body 1B. In addition, when a microcapsule is used as a deodorant, the deodorizing effect and aroma effect by the reagent are exhibited.

Therefore, in the mask 100B, in addition to reducing the consumption of the sheet material 32B and extending the life of the mask, it is possible to reduce bad odors, particularly bad breath, and supply good fragrance into the mask.
In addition, since the deodorant sheet 33B is disposed on the wearer via the two layers of the sheet material 32B and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 31B, it is possible to avoid the deodorant and the fragrance from touching the wearer directly. it can.

  Of course, a fragrance sheet in which the above-described fragrance is dispersed or impregnated may be disposed instead of the deodorant sheet 33B.

Moreover, as shown in FIG. 9, the sheet material 32 and the adhesive layer 31 are provided in triplicate, and the deodorant sheet 33B is disposed between the frontmost sheet material 32 and the second adhesive layer 31 from the front. Also good. Also in this case, it is desirable that the deodorant sheet 33B is disposed so as to avoid the through hole h.
Also in this structure, since the sheet material 32B and adhesive layer 31B for two layers interpose with respect to a wearer, it can avoid that a deodorizer and a fragrance | flavor touch a wearer directly.
