The mask has a cylindrical contour, with the mask being curved along the major axis and straight along the minor axis. The improvement comprises the frame including two curved members paralleling the major axis and each other and two straight members paralleling the minor axis and each other. The curvature of the curved members matches the curvature of the cylindrical contour of the mask. The two long sides of the mask are welded between the two curved members.
