Abstract: A patient interface includes a plenum chamber, a seal-forming structure, and a positioning and stabilizing structure. The plenum chamber is pressurisable to a therapeutic pressure. The seal-forming structure is constructed and arranged to seal with a region of a patient's face surrounding an entrance to a patient's airways. The seal-forming structure maintains the therapeutic pressure in the plenum chamber throughout a patient's respiratory cycle in use. The positioning and stabilizing structure holds the seal-forming structure in a therapeutically effective position on a patient's head. The patient interface allows the patient to breathe from ambient in the absence of a flow of pressurised air. The positioning and stabilizing structure includes headgear, and at least a portion of the headgear and the seal forming structure is formed from a one piece construction of textile material.

The head mounted display unit and at least a portion of the positioning and stabilizing structure are formed from a one piece construction of textile material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a patient interface comprising a plenum chamber, a seal-forming structure, and a positioning and stabilizing structure, as well as the method of operating the patient interface. The patient's interface is configured to leave a patient's mouth uncovered or if the seal-forming structure is configured to seal around a patient's nose and mouth, the patient interface is configured to allow the patient to breath from the ambient in an absence of the flow of pressurized. The positioning and stabilizing structure includes headgear, and the seal-forming structure and at least a portion of the headgear is formed from a one piece construction of textile material. In another embodiment, the seal-forming structure and/or the positioning and stabilizing structure includes an adaptive portion that adjusts based on usage conditions.

Abstract: A manufactured component, such as headgear or a headgear strap, for a patient interface for delivery of pressurised air or breathable gas to an entrance of a patient's airways may include a textile portion having a first material with a first melting point. It may also include a plastic portion over-moulded to the textile portion. The plastic portion may be formed of a second material having a second melting point. The melting points may be different such that the second melting point is chosen to be less than the first melting point of the first material. The component may be moulded in a multi-step process that moulds separate portions of the plastic portion and the textile portion at different times. The resulting plastic portion may then have a mechanical bond with the textile and may do so without significant chemical bonding between the plastic portion and the textile.

Abstract: A gas washout vent for a patient interface may be configured to allow a flow of patient exhaled gas to an exterior of the patient interface to minimise rebreathing of exhaled gas by the patient and the vent may include: a plurality of vent passages extending between a first and a second side of the vent, each vent passage may include: a plurality of first openings extending from the first side towards the second side, said first openings being uniform in size and shape; a plurality of second openings extending from the second side towards the first side, said second openings being uniform in size and shape; and wherein the first openings and the second openings partially overlap each other at an interface to form constricted passages therebetween.

Abstract: A patient interface including a vent structure that allows a continuous flow of gases exhaled by the patient from an interior of a nasal plenum chamber to the ambient. The vent structure is sized and shaped to maintain the therapeutic pressure in the nasal plenum chamber in use. The vent structure includes a housing secured to the nasal plenum chamber, and a vent wall coupled to the rigid housing and selectively movable between a closed position and an open position. The vent wall is biased toward the closed position. The vent wall is maintained in the closed position and is configured to be positioned in the open position as a result of contact with an oral cushion in order to accommodate the oral cushion with an oral plenum chamber and form an oro-nasal cushion.

Abstract: A patient interface may include a plenum chamber pressurisable to a therapeutic pressure; a seal-forming structure constructed and arranged to form a seal with a region of the patient's face; a positioning and stabilising structure to provide an elastic force to hold the seal-forming structure on the patient's head, the positioning and stabilising structure may include a tie; a vent structure; a decoupling structure configured to provide a fluid connection between the plenum chamber and an air circuit for the flow of air at the therapeutic pressure for breathing by the patient; and a frame having at least one tie attachment structure to receive the tie, wherein the frame is configured to be resiliently movable in any direction having at least one of a component parallel to the patient's sagittal plane, a component parallel to the patient's coronal plane, a component parallel to the patient's Frankfort horizontal plane.

Abstract: A patient interface including a seal-forming structure having a mouth portion that forms at least part of the mouth plenum and is configured to seal around the patient's mouth and a nasal portion that is configured to seal with the patient's nares. The patient interface further includes a vent structure with a main body that is configured to be secured to the mouth portion and includes a vent wall with a plurality of vent holes, a receptacle, and a pair of anchor sockets located on opposing lateral sides of the receptacle.
