Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An interface device is structured to be connected in fluid communication with a source of breathing gas and to provide a flow of breathing gas to the airways of a patient. The interface device includes a support (24), a deformable portion (28) situated on the support, and an interface portion (32) situated on the deformable portion and being structured to be engaged with the patient in the vicinity of the airways, with the deformable portion including a plurality of deformable elements (36) that form a lattice structure and that are connected with the support at a plurality of spaced apart points of connection (44) on the support. The interface device may be formed via an additive manufacturing process. 一种接口设备被构造为与呼吸气体源流体连通地连接并且向患者的气道提供呼吸气体流。所述接口设备包括：支撑件(24)；位于所述支撑件上的可变形部分(28)；以及接口部分(32)，其位于所述可变形部分上，并且被构造为在气道附近与患者接合；所述可变形部分包括多个可变形元件(36)，所述多个可变形元件形成晶格结构并且在所述支撑件上的多个间隔开的连接点(44)处与所述支撑件连接。可以经由增材制造过程形成接口设备。
