Abstract: A patient interface for delivering breathable gas to a patient includes a sealing portion including a nose tip engagement portion adapted to form a seal with the patient's nose tip, an upper lip engagement portion adapted to form a seal with the patient's upper lip and/or base of the patient's nares, and nostril engagement flaps adapted to form a seal with the patient's nares. The nose tip engagement portion, the upper lip engagement portion, and the nostril engagement flaps are all structured to extend or curve outwardly from a supporting wall defining an air path.

Abstract: Aspects of the present technology comprise a positioning and stabilising structure to hold a seal-forming structure in a therapeutically effective position on a head of a patient. The seal-forming structure may be constructed and arranged to form a seal with a region of the patient's face surrounding an entrance to the patient's airways for sealed delivery of a flow of air at a therapeutic pressure of at least 4 cmH2O with respect to ambient air pressure throughout the patient's respiratory cycle in use. The positioning and stabilising structure may comprise at least one gas delivery tube to deliver the flow of air to the entrance of a patient's airways via the seal-forming structure. The positioning and stabilising structure may comprise an adjustment mechanism for adjustment of a length of the at least one gas delivery tube to enable the positioning and stabilising structure to fit different size heads.

Abstract: A patient interface for delivering breathable gas to a patient includes a sealing portion adapted to form a seal with the patient and a support portion to which the sealing portion is mounted. A first headgear chord is connected to a first side of the support portion, and a second headgear chord connected to a second side of the support portion. Headgear is adapted to connect to the first and second headgear chords to secure the support portion to a head of the patient. At least one adjustment device on the support portion is adapted to selectively move the first and second headgear chords to tighten or loosen the headgear.

Abstract: A patient interface for delivering pressurized breathable gas to a patient includes a flexible sealing portion with an orifice and sides that are adapted to engage with and form a seal with sides of the patient's nose. The orifice is configured so that a supply of breathable gas is deliverable to the patient through the orifice. The patient interface also includes a supporting portion that is in contact with and supports the flexible sealing portion. The patient interface further includes a pair of lateral headgear connector arms arranged at an angle with respect to the orifice in the flexible sealing portion. Each lateral headgear connector arm has a headgear tab. The angle between each lateral headgear connector arm and the orifice is adjustable. In addition, the flexibility of the lateral headgear connector arms allows the headgear tabs to touch an outer surface of the flexible sealing portion.

Abstract: A seal-forming structure for a patient interface may include a patient-contacting surface configured to engage the patient's facial skin to form a seal; a posterior opening formed in the patient-contacting surface, the posterior opening configured to provide the flow of air at said therapeutic pressure to the patient's nares; and a support structure extending from the patient contacting surface to an interior surface of the seal-forming structure, the support structure and the interior surface forming a continuous loop, wherein the patient interface is configured to allow the patient to breath from ambient through their mouth in the absence of a flow of pressurised air through the plenum chamber inlet port, or the patient interface is configured to leave the patient's mouth uncovered.

Abstract: A swivel elbow and connector assembly for a patient interface system includes a ring configured to be sealingly secured in an aperture of the patient interface system and an elbow swivelably secured in the ring. The ring includes a first side in an interior of the patient interface system and a second side at an exterior of the patient interface system when the ring is secured in the aperture. The ring comprises a first flange on the first side and a second flange on the second side, the first and second flanges defining a channel that sealingly engages the aperture of the patient interface system. An inner surface of the ring is partially spherical and an outer surface of the elbow is partially spherical and the elbow and the ring form a ball and socket connection.

Abstract: A swivel elbow and connector assembly for a patient interface system includes a ring (128) configured to be sealingly secured in an aperture of the patient interface system and an elbow (125) swivably secured in the ring (128). The ring (128) includes a first side (128(1)) in an interior of the patient interface system and a second side (128(2)) at an exterior of the patient interface system when the ring (128) is secured in the aperture. The ring (128) comprises a first flange on the first side and a second flange on the second side, the first and second flanges defining a channel (128(3)) that sealingly engages the aperture of the patient interface system. An inner surface (128(4)) of the ring (128) is partially spherical and an outer surface (125(3)) of the elbow (125) is partially spherical and the elbow (125) and the ring (128) form a ball and socket connection.
