Abstract: The full face flexible oxygen mask for use with flight helmets includes an elastic face seal with an oronasal cone that seals around the nose and mouth of the wearer, and flexible sealing flaps along the perimeter of the face seal to adapt the face piece of the mask to seal against the surface of a flight helmet. The mask face piece has two large sealing surfaces or channels down each side of the mask that overlap and flex to adapt to seal to a variety of flight helmets. The top of the face seal has an inner and outer flap that work together to seal the exposed face visible between the sides of the flight helmet.

Abstract: An improved crew oxygen mask and stowage assembly combination (10) is provided including a stowage box (12) equipped with a door (22), with a crew mask assembly (14) made up of a mask (48), gas-conveying tubing (50) and valve unit (46). The box (12) also includes a valve-controlling switch lever (44) for selective gas-on or gas-off operation of valve unit (46). In normal conditions, the mask (48) and tubing (50) are stowed within box (12) with lever (44) oriented in the gas-on position, so that the tubing (50) is pressurized and mask (48) may be quickly pulled from the box (12) and used. After such use, the switch lever (44) is shifted to the gas-off position, causing the tubing (50) to be depressurized; this allows easy restowage of the tubing (50) and mask (48) within the box (12). However, when door (22) is closed, the switch lever (44) is cammed back to the gas-on position, thereby repressurizing tubing (50) and returning the combination (10) to a full-ready condition.
