Abstract: The PAPR Frame is a low cost solution that allows the assembly of a PAPR Device from readily available off-the-shelf elements. To assemble the PAPR Device, a face shield is inserted into the PAPR Frame. To utilize the PAPR Device, a user inserts the visor of a hat into the PAPR Frame and wears the hat. The PAPR Device may further comprise tubing segments; the tubing segments are inserted into tubing apertures arranged through a top curved piece of the PAPR Frame. The PAPR Device may also further comprise one or two sound attenuation structures, which are used to dampen the potential noise generated by the air flow within the PAPR Device.
