Abstract
An ear protector hook system for attaching to a band attached to a mask body and a cannula having two flexible tubes with nasal prongs therebetween. The system includes two ear protector hooks each comprised of a hook shaped structure constructed of four sections attached to each other end to end. A slot extending the length of the hook shaped structure extends from an outer surface of the hook shaped structure to a circular inner bore extending the length of the hook shaped structure to receive either the band attached to a mask body or the flexible tubes attached to the nasal prongs.

An ear protector hook system for attaching to a band attached to a mask body, comprising:
- two ear protector hooks;
- each of the ear protector hooks comprised of a hook shaped structure constructed of four sections attached to each other end to end;
- a first section of the four sections shaped to hook over the top of a wearer's ear and rest against the head of the wearer;
- a third section of the four sections adapted to rest in the crevice between the wearer's ear and the head of the wearer and exerting a force causing a second section between the first section and the third section to be pulled forward toward the mask;
- a fourth section of the four sections connected to the third section and adapted to rest in the crevice between the wearer's ear and the head of the wearer so as to stabilize the mask body and prevent repeated rubbing of the ear protector hook against the same part of a person's ear;
- a slot extending the length of the hook shaped structure which extends from an outer surface of the hook shaped structure to a circular inner bore extending the length of the hook shaped structure receiving the band attached to a mask body.
An ear protector hook system for attaching a cannula having two flexible tubes with nasal prongs therebetween, around the ears of a wearer, comprising:
- two ear protector hooks;
- each of the ear protector hooks comprised of a hook shaped structure constructed of four sections attached to each other end to end;
- a first section of the four sections shaped to hook over the top of a wearer's ear and rest against the head of the wearer;
- a third section of the four sections adapted to rest in the crevice between the wearer's ear and the head of the wearer and exerting a force causing a second section between the first section and the third section to be pulled forward toward the nasal prongs;
- a fourth section of the four sections connected to the third section and adapted to rest in the crevice between the wearer's ear and the head of the wearer so as to stabilize the mask body and prevent repeated rubbing of the ear protector against the same part of a person's ear;
- a slot extending the length of the hook shaped structure which extends from an outer surface of the hook shaped structure to a circular inner bore extending the length of the hook shaped structure receiving one of the two flexible tubes of the cannula.
