VisionProject:RespiratorProject about combining initially unrelated technologies in a unique, but practical way


Keurig B70 force-demultiplying lever system replaces traditional

strap harness

Latch HarnessSystem

Simplifies donning process to single motion, reducing time and chance of error

Force-demultiplying lever system maximizes force applied by latch

Conceptual Development


Donning Process

Press mask against face so as to create sealPress mask against face so as to create seal

Still holding mask, pull lever back until latch is snuggly fastened against back of head

Depress toggle button at lever base to activate locking mechanism and avoid accidental release
