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 apparatus for generating electrical energy includes at least one generator connected to a drive device. The drive device includes at least one guide element for transforming the energy of a flowing medium into a rotational movement. The guide element is arranged in the flow path of the heated exhaust air coming from at least one heat exchanger.

Abstract: A device used for ventilation includes a ventilation mask that can be connected to a respiratory gas hose. The ventilation mask has a respiratory gas hose coupling that is movably connected by a joint with the base of the ventilation mask. The joint is a ball-and-socket joint, which has an inner part that is shaped like a spherical segment and an outer shell for guiding the inner part. The outer shell is constructed from at least two shell segments that can be connected with each other.

Abstract: A fastening device for a strap, including a receiving element, a clip with at least one spring element configured for a locking engagement in the receiving element, and a slide moveable relative to the clip so that movement of the slide moves the spring element out of its position of rest for releasing the locking engagement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for respiration which consists at least of one body that delimits an inner chamber from an outer chamber, a region for sealing the device against parts of the face of a patient, fastening elements for positioning the device on the patient's head and a connection for supplying respiratory gas. The device is equipped with an actuator, which when adjusted, changes the distance of at least one part of the device from at least one part of the body of the patient.

Abstract: A device for artificial respiration, including a front support (3) which is connected to a respiratory mask (1) that includes a connection for the respiratory tube (4), a front support is coupled to the respiratory mask by a distancing element (2) and at least one cavity (11) is arranged in the region of the distancing element, the cavity leading into an inner chamber (12).

Abstract: The invention relates to a respiratory mask comprising a mask body and an articulated connection piece that can be connected to a respiratory tube. On the mask body, at least one exhalation gap is located in the vicinity of a connection that holds the articulated connection piece. Preferably, the exhalation gap terminates in an umbrella-shaped outflow channel that runs away from the patient. Preferably, at least two components of the respiratory mask are interconnected without play.

Abstract: A tightenable band clamp with a clamping band and a tightening head with two clamping jaws which are a certain circumferential distance apart and which can be moved toward each other by a tightening device. For this purpose, at least one clamping jaw, in the area of its radially inside surface, has at least one projection which extends in the circumferential direction toward the other clamping jaw and which projects into the gap.

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.
