A respiratory mask with an interface for the connection of at least two components, wherein the interface is round or oval and has a maximum diameter, and the components each make available at least one subregion of the interface. The component has a grip part which extends radially outward from the subregion and which is configured as a pressing surface or gripping means for fingers or the hand of an operator, wherein the component has two grip parts, wherein the subregions are in form-fit engagement with each other in an assembled state and are movable about a rotation axis (DA), for which purpose the grip part is rotatable to different rotation positions relative to the two grip parts.
A respiratory mask, wherein the mask comprises an interface for connecting of at least two components, wherein the interface is round or oval, the at least two components each providing at least one subregion of the interface, wherein a first one of the two components has a grip part which extends radially outward from a first one of the subregions and is configured as a pressing surface or gripping element for fingers or a hand of an operator, a second one of the two components has two grip parts which extend radially outward from a second one of the subregions and are configured as a pressing surface or gripping elements for fingers or a hand of the operator, the grip part of the first component being configured as part of a forehead support and being formed integrally with the forehead support and/or the two grip parts of the second component being configured as part of a mask body and being formed integrally with the mask body, and wherein the first and second subregions are in form-fit engagement with each other in an assembled state and are movable about a rotation axis which is perpendicular to the first and second subregions, for which purpose the grip part of the first one of the two components is rotatable to different rotation positions relative to the two grip parts of the second one of the two components.
