Abstract

A respirator to be worn in front of the chest with regeneration of the breathing air, containing a regenerating cartridge with a plurality of chemical layers, a breathing bag, a connection piece on the side of the breathing bag located opposite the regenerating cartridge, a breathing hose pointing from the connection piece to the user, and an oxygen-releasing starting device at the regenerating cartridge. The supply of oxygen into the breathing bag and the wear properties are improved by the breathing bag being designed as a bag lying flat on the regenerating cartridge and having a ring-shaped hose part, which can be laid around the neck of the user. This provides a neck opening formed within the breathing bag. An opening is provided in the chemical layer located opposite the breathing bag. A starting device is accommodated in this opening such that it is in flow connection with a collector chamber opening into the breathing bag.
