smoke hood
Fire evacuation mask
A smoke hood is a portable breathing device worn over the head to protect against smoke and toxic gases during fires or emergencies.
Unlike full respirators, smoke hoods are designed for quick donning and short-term escape rather than extended use.
Airlines and hotels sometimes provide them; safety-conscious travelers carry their own: She kept a smoke hood in her carry-on bag.
