Abstract: Disclosed is a supporting device for a patient interface on the forehead of the patient. The supporting device has an adjustment by means of a self-acting, incorporated spring element and, depending on the tightening force of the harness, the forehead pad presses onto the forehead of the user as a result of the spring force and thus provides the patient interface at a spacing which is suitable for the patient and provides optimum, fault-free adaptation.

Abstract: The invention concerns a gel covering of a patient interface. This gel covering has a mask connection area by which its side that faces away from the patient is joined with a mask body. The patient interface can be designed, for example, as a respiratory mask. On its side that faces the patient's face, the respiratory mask has thin, inwardly formed, peripheral contact lips. The respiratory mask has accessories that allow it to be fastened on the patient's head as well as a hose connection for supplying air. At least one region formed from a filler is placed in or on the walls of the gel covering. The method is used to produce the gel covering of the invention.

Abstract: An attachment device for fastening a ventilator mask on the head of a wearer includes a system of straps with at least two strap ends with a fastening device for fastening the straps to the ventilator mask. The straps are joined with a central section, so that at least two strap ends extend away from the central section towards the ventilator mask. The central section rests on the head of the wearer and is at least partially adapted to the shape of the wearer's head. In addition, a method for producing the attachment device includes subjecting the central section to a performing step to adapt it to the shape of the wearer's head.

Abstract: Disclosed is a respirator comprising at least one flow path. Said respirator is composed of several interconnected components which ar disposed one behind another in the flow path and through which the flow path extends. The fluid resistance of each individual component is optimized so as to obtain a low total fluid resistance of all components.
