Abstract
A lung-governed breathing valve used in a breathing mask for excess pressure operation. The valve has a casing with a spring-loaded control diaphragm which divides the casing into an outer chamber connected to the outside environment and a breathing chamber for conveying the gas for breathing. The control diaphragm controls a breathing gas inlet valve via a lever system and a manually released actuating button. The control diaphragm has a resilient raised portion formed integrally thereon with a recess therein. A push-rod integrally molded on the actuating button is positively engageable in the recess of the raised portion to prevent the lung-governed valve from being accidentally released or switched from the stand-by to the operative position.
