Abstract: An apparatus for administering a respirable gas to an individual includes a body receivable against a facial area for enclosing a respiratory organ, a vacuum hose, and a scavenger valve. The body is cup shaped, and includes a first side and a second side. An inhalation member extends from the first side of the body. An exhalation member extends from the second side of the body. The vacuum hose is for coupling a vacuum source to the exhalation member. The scavenger valve is coupled to the vacuum hose. The inhalation member is for administering respirable gas into the body, the exhalation member is for exhausting exhaust gas from the body into the vacuum hose, and the scavenger valve is for exhausting exhaust gas therethrough from the vacuum hose to an atmosphere.

Abstract: An inhalation mask assembly includes a cup shaped first body and a cup shaped second body. The first body is receivable against a facial area for enclosing a respiratory organ, and includes first inhalation members, and an exhalation valve assembly at a frontal midpoint of the first body between the first inhalation members. The second body includes exhalation members and second inhalation members. The first body is nested in the second body, and the first inhalation members of the first body are coupled gaseously to the respective second inhalation members. The first inhalation members are for administering respirable gas into the first body from the respective second inhalation members, the exhalation valve assembly is for exhausting exhaust gas from the first body into a scavenger chamber formed between the first body and the second body, and the exhalation members are for exhausting the exhaust gas from the scavenger chamber.

Abstract: An inhalation mask assembly for administering a respirable gas to an individual, which individual includes a facial area having a respiratory organ for receiving respirable gas and for expelling exhaust gas, the exhaust gas having a moisture content, the inhalation mask assembly comprising a generally cup-shaped first body receivable against the facial area for substantially enclosing the respiratory organ, an inhalation assembly for communicating respirable gas to the first body, an exhalation valve assembly for conducting exhaust gas from the first body, a generally cup-shaped second body carried by the first body for receiving exhaust gas from the exhalation valve assembly, a substantially transparent region carried by the second body, the substantially transparent region having a surface adjacent the exhalation valve assembly for accumulating moisture from the exhaust gas, and an exhalation assembly for conducting exhaust gas from the second body.

Abstract: A face mask includes a cup-shaped body for enclosing an external respiratory organ, such as the nose, of a patient. Flow of a respirable gas into the body and exhaust of expired gas from the body are unidirectional controlled by respiration check valves. A plurality of detachably securable and interchangeable accessory devices adapt the mask for use with selected prior art scavenging devices.

Abstract: A face mask includes a cup-shaped body for enclosing an external respiratory organ, such as the nose, of a patient. Flow of a respirable gas into the body and exhaust of expired gas from the body are unidirectional controlled by respiration check valves. The mask is molded of an elastomer which is permeated with an odorous medium to emit a selected scent. The mask is colored to impart a visual perception corresponding to the scent. A plurality of detachably securable and interchangeable accessory devices adapt the mask for use with selected prior art scavenging devices.
