  • Publication number: 20250128007
    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.

  • Patent number: 11986596
    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.

  • Publication number: 20230347089
    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.
