There is provided a breathing assembly for an aircraft that includes a breathing mask to be connected to a source of breathing gas. The assembly also includes a stowage box forming a receptacle for receiving the breathing mask in a stowage position, and a valve assembly comprising a valve having an open position in which the valve allows the feed of breathing gas to the breathing mask and a closed position in which the valve prevents the feed of breathing gas to the breathing mask, the valve assembly being supported by the breathing mask. There may also be provided a retaining element connected to the stowage box and cooperating with the valve assembly to maintain the valve in the closed position when the breathing mask is in the stowage position.

Breathing assembly for aircraft

A breathing assembly for aircraft comprising a storage unit, a breathing mask and a releasable securing device. The storage unit has a guiding surface extending perpendicularly to an elevation direction and a maintaining element. The breathing mask comprises a rigid support having a sliding surface adapted to slide in contact with the guiding surface of the storage unit, along a sliding direction between a storage position and an exit position. The support further has a maintaining element. In the storage position, the sliding surface of the support is prevented from moving away from the guiding surface of the storage unit along the elevation direction at the distal end by engagement of the maintaining element of the support with the maintaining element of the storage unit.
