Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0288391A1] The harness has at least one extensible strap whose ends are connected to the mask and which comprises an element which can be inflated with a compressed gas in order to lengthen the strap to a specific dimension sufficient to allow the user to engage the strap on his head, and having manual control means (18) making it possible to admit compressed gas into the said element in order to lengthen it, and to empty this element in order to allow the strap to bear against the head and hold the mask in position. The manual control means comprise a switch (32, 39) making it possible, as desired, to empty the inflatable element or to maintain therein a specific intermediate gas pressure which is lower than the pressure for complete inflation. <IMAGE>
