    Abstract: A pivotable frame assembly (60) for a patient interface device (8) is provided. The patient interface device includes a mask (10) and a support assembly (40). The support assembly includes a first support member (52), a first strap (42A) and a second strap (42B), the first strap coupled at two locations to the first support member. The second strap is structured to be temporarily coupled to a mask first, temporary support assembly coupling (18). The pivotable frame assembly includes a frame member (62), a hinge assembly (64) and a support assembly strap coupling (66). The hinge assembly pivotally coupled the frame assembly and the mask. In this configuration, when the mask is coupled to the hinge assembly second component (82), the mask may move between a first position, wherein the mask is pivoted away from the user's face, and a second position, wherein the mask is sealed against the user's face.
