To provide a mask which is small and easy to handle, and inactivates virus included in the air using ultraviolet ray more effectively.SOLUTION: The present invention provides a face mask system comprising: a mask body part having a recessed part which is formed so as to be brought into contact with a surface of the face of a user when being worn and cover the nose and mouth via a first opening part; a cover formed so as to cover a second opening part of the recessed part; a coupling part for detachably coupling the mask body part and the cover; a filter opposite to an inner surface of the cover and provided detachably to the second opening; and an ultraviolet light emitting element provided on the inner surface of the cover and irradiating the filter with ultraviolet ray. The coupling part functions as an electric contact part of first and second electrodes, and is electrically connected to the first and second electrodes when the cover and the mask body part are coupled.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】小型で取り扱いが容易で、かつ、空気中に含まれるウィルス等を紫外線により有効に不活化するマスクを提供する。【解決手段】本発明は、装着時に使用者の顔の表面に当接して第１の開口部を介して鼻及び口を覆うように形成された凹状部を有するマスク本体部と、前記凹状部の第２の開口部を覆うように形成されたカバーと、前記マスク本体部と前記カバーとを着脱自在に結合する結合部と、前記カバーの内面に対向して前記第２の開口部に着脱可能に設けられたフィルタと、前記カバーの内面に設けられ、前記フィルタに紫外線を照射する紫外線発光素子とを備えるフェイスマスクシステムである。前記結合部は、第１及び第２の電極とからなる電気接点部として機能し、前記カバーと前記マスク本体部との結合時に、前記第１及び前記第２の電極とは電気的に接続される。【選択図】図１
