A cushion member () for a patient interface device () that includes a sealing portion () having a flap portion () including a first layer () and a second layer () mechanically bonded to the first layer. The first layer is structured to engage a face of a patient and is made of a fabric material. The second layer is made of a material selected from the group consisting of a monomer, a polymer, and a mixture of a monomer and a polymer. A base portion () is bonded to the second layer. The base portion is structured to be coupled to a gas delivery conduit ().

Fabric cushion member

A patient interface device includes a main frame and a headgear. The main frame includes a central support portion for supporting a cushion component and first and second arms extending from the central support portion. The headgear includes a support portion, and first and second straps extending therefrom. The first strap has a first pocket and the second strap has a second pocket, wherein the first arm is received and moveable within the first pocket along a longitudinal axis of the first strap and the second arm is received and moveable within the second pocket along a longitudinal axis of the second strap. The headgear also includes first and second fastening mechanisms for securing the headgear to the main frame, holding the first arm in a selected position within the first pocket and holding the second arm in a selected position within the second pocket.

Patient interface device with adjustable headgear and frame

A fluid coupling conduit () includes an inlet end () structured to receive a flow of breathing gas, an outlet end () fluidly coupled to the inlet end and defining an outlet opening, a central chamber portion () positioned between the inlet end and the outlet end, the central chamber portion having an outer wall () positioned opposite the outlet opening. The outer wall has a plurality of exhaust gas orifices () extending therethrough. A number of sound attenuating structures are disposed in the central chamber portion between the outlet opening and the outer wall. The sound attenuating structures including a plurality of surfaces structured to reflect sound waves associated with exhaust gas flow through the fluid coupling conduit.
