A coupling device for a breathing apparatus, characterized in that a connecting device is inseparably connected to the regulator hose, and can be coupled with at least two couplers, each having a flow check valve, for connection to a breathing gas source. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Coupling device for a breathing apparatus

A securing device for a valve of a pressurized gas tank of a respiratory protection device, characterized by a securing element, which can be moved from a closed position to a flow position, especially an open position, by applying a torque, wherein at least one part of a housing serves as an abutment for the securing element when the torque is applied, wherein the valve is closed in the closed position of the securing element and can be brought spontaneously into a flow position after applying a particular torque to the securing element.

Securing device for a valve

Described is a breathing system that covers a person's head with a flexible hood material. One aspect provides a protective hood, including: a flexible hood material having a closed top portion and a neck portion; a viewing window disposed within the flexible hood material; a breathing inlet disposed in the flexible hood material and providing for breathing air to enter into an interior of the protective hood; an exhalation valve disposed interior to the protective hood; and a sealing arrangement disposed at the neck portion of the flexible hood material; wherein at least a portion of expelled gas from the exhalation valve is released into an interior of the protective hood and rinses the interior of the protective hood.

Protective hood

A coupling for a compressed gas cylinder () includes a separate coupling part () that can be screwed to the standardized fitting () on the cylinder valve (). The connection to the coupling means () of a pressure reducer () or the like is provided by plug-and-socket-type connecting means that can be plugged into each other, interlocked, and closed off by means of locking elements to prevent contamination from outside, the locking element provided on the coupling part at the same time forming a blow-off protection that allows only a limited gas flow when the cylinder valve is opened in uncoupled condition.
