Patent number: 12337114Abstract: A mask frame, comprises a central conduit connection aperture and lateral arms having a 3-D curvature. The lateral arms extend: outwardly from a center of the frame, rearwardly, towards the patients ears, and upwardly, along a vector passing from below the nose to a point between the temple the top of the ear. The lateral arms “twist” along their length, such that a bottom margin of an end of each lateral arm is positioned further away from a notional vertical plane passing through the centre of the conduit connection aperture than a top margin. Also provided is an anti-rotation feature which limits or prevents rotation between straps of a headgear, and the mask frame. Further provided is a buckle for a closed loop headgear the buckle being formed with a plurality of openings and posts configured to form an angled headgear strap path through the buckle through which part of a headgear strap loop can pass.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2021Date of Patent: June 24, 2025Assignee: Fisher & Paykel Healthcare LimitedInventors: Wen Dong Huang, Arvin San Jose Gardiola, Matthew Roger Stephenson, Toong Chuo Lim, Bruce Michael Walls, Jeremy Owen Young
