Abstract

A faceshield constructed and arranged to protect against chemical splash and other ambient foreign matter. A main support pivotally attachable to a safety cap carries a depending transparent facepiece detachably connected to the main support beneath an overhang. The connection is made with buttons suspended from the overhang and the overhang, in turn, shields the facepiece connection from direct exposure to splash. Provision for snap-fitting the main support to the safety cap brim avoids accidental displacement of the shield during use while permitting its release and selective pivoting to an out-of-the-way position.
