The specific embodiment
With reference to accompanying drawing, first embodiment that embodies pillow selecting arrangement 100 of the present invention is shown, it is used for selecting to be suitable for client 500 pillow 300, device 100 can be privately owned by client 500, in the point of sale or the shop provide.Device 100 has main body 101, second meter 202 (for example referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2) that it first meter 201 that provides along a side of main body 101 is provided preferably and provides along the opposite side of main body 101.First meter 201 is for first reading of distance between the back neck 502 that obtains indication client 500 and the back 501.Second meter 202 be used for obtaining indication client 500 heads 503 with and either side (preferred left side) on shoulder 504 between second reading of distance.Second meter 202 and first meter 201 are to obtain the mode cooperation of second reading based on first reading that is obtained by first meter 201.
Hold.When movable link 107 slided with respect to main body 101, groove 106 and retainer 106A and 106B played the effect of the guide of guiding movable link 107 motions.
In more detail, movable link 107 is scales, and it has nine scales that define 107A to 107H between eight scale area.107A to 107F is marked as 5.0,4.5,4.0,3.5 respectively between scale area, and 3.0 and 2.5 inches, 107G to 107H is marked as " excessive " and " too small " respectively between scale area.
Referring to Fig. 8, when operation, main body 101 is placed near client 500, and lateral edges 102 contacts with client's back, and preferred vertical is extended, and the backbone 501 that more preferably is parallel to client 500 extends.The lateral edges 103 of main body 101 extends perpendicular to client 500 backbone 501.The distal face of scale 107 is more specifically said so in the face of nape to back neck 502, and touches nape 502 towards the nape slip up to it.The position of indicator 108 on scale 107 provides first reading.Scale 107 is made translucent, makes the personnel that obtain reading can easily see the position of indicator 108 on scale 107 from above.Because indicator 108 is the part at edge 102, therefore when operation, indicator 108 is parallel to client 500 backbone 501 and is located thereon, the distance between first reading indication nape 502 and the backbone 501.
When indicator 108 fall between scale area 107A to 107F arbitrary on the time, nearly how many inches between first reading indication nape 502 and the backbone 501.If indicator 108 is fallen between scale area on 107H or the 107G, then the distance between its indication nape 502 and the backbone 501 is excessive or too small and can not measure.In this case, need another pillow selecting arrangement 100.Distance between nape 502 backbones 501 is h (301).The height/thickness that distance reflection pillow matrix 301 between nape 502 backbones 501 is required, when client lay low with the back, pillow matrix 301 helped to support client 500 head and neck (referring to Fig. 6), the more important thing is head and neck are correctly aimed at.This helps to prevent that neck and/or head (specifically being the muscle that prevents from supporting neck and/or head) from sustaining damage, and avoids Wry Neck.
In 203F, exist five scales to mark 204A to 204D between four zones or scale area at each scale 203A.204A between four scale area, 204B, 204C and 204D are denoted as " 0 layer ", " 1 layer " " 2 layers " and " 3 layers " are used to indicate when client is used for making client 500 head and neck when arbitrary shoulder 500 is lain on one's side with it and keep the required height/thickness of supplying outside the height/thickness of the pillow matrix 301 aimed at.
The summation of supplying the height/thickness of height/thickness and pillow matrix 301 constitutes the height/thickness of the pillow 300 that is suitable for client 500.In order to replace using unit commonly used such as centimetre, meter, inch, scale 203 uses supplies the number of plies of bolster as unit.Supply bolster 302A, the height/thickness of 302B and 302C is predetermined and is specified in advance.Preferably, supply bolster 302A, 302B has identical height/thickness with 302C.Second reading indicates in order to obtain the required required number of plies of height/thickness of supplying height/thickness and therefore obtaining pillow 300.
Referring to Fig. 9, when operation, main body 101 is placed near client 500, and lateral edges 103 is aimed at the outer end of client 500 acromion 504.Draw imaginary line 505 up to scale 203 downwards from client 500 temple 503.Lateral edges 102 and scale 203 extend across acromion 504 and imaginary line 503.Come one of selectivity scale 203A to 203F based on first reading that obtains from first meter.Imaginary line 505 is fallen between the scale area of selected scale 203A to 203F 204A to 204D and is gone up and obtain second reading.How many layers second reading is indicated supply bolster 301A to 301C and need be inserted under the pillow matrix 301.
When determining to supply the required number of plies of bolster 301A to 301C, second reading is taken the height/thickness of pillow matrix 301 into account, and its reason is that scale 203A to 203F calibrates based on first reading.In other words,
The distance that the required height/thickness summation of supplying bolster equals between temple 503 and the acromion 504 deducts h301, and h301 is client 500 nape 502 and the distance between the backbone 501.
Supplying bolster 301A is Π shape (referring to Figure 12 A), and each becomes two pads that will add to respectively on pillow matrix 301 left sides and the right side and supply bolster 301B and 301C.When client 500 lay on one's side with its either side shoulder and makes its head be positioned on the left side of pillow 300 or the right side, these were supplied bolster 301A to 301C and are designed to its head and provide support.
Generally, when client 500 lay low with its back, head should be positioned over the center of pillow 300, and stood up so that when lying on one's side with shoulder as client 500, and head will move towards the left and right sides of pillow 300.
Under existence is inserted into pillow matrix 301 supply bolster 301A to 301C and client 500 with its head be positioned over pillow matrix 301 in the heart the time, the center of pillow matrix 301 sinks to by supplying in the following side space that bolster 301A to 301C defines.Pillow 300 height/thickness at heart place therein reduces to adapt to distance between nape 502 and the backbone 501.This helps when client 500 lies low with its back head and neck to be aimed at.When client 500 stands up and its head is positioned on the side of pillow 300, the support that head will be subjected to pillow matrix 301 and supply bolster 301A to 301C.Pillow matrix 301 and the height/thickness of supplying bolster 301A to 301C adapt to the distance between temple 503 and the acromion 504.When client 500 lay on one's side with its shoulder, this helped head and neck aligning and prevents that head from too much tilting, and head too much inclination can cause through musculi colli fatigue after the long-time tensioning at a night.
In different embodiment, meter 201 and 202 can be arranged on the same side of device 100 or be arranged on any part of device 100.In another embodiment, each meter can be used as independent device provides.In addition, each scale 107 and 203 scale can be different colours and read being convenient to.
With reference to Figure 11 A and 11B, two examples are that example 1 and example 2 only are to provide for the purpose of demonstrating, and are not that intention is limited to the present invention in the instantiation.
Example 1

Another right-angle side of the first and second part 101A and 101B forms the boundary edge of main body 101 ' jointly, and it is linear or continuous straight flange, and first meter 201 ' is laterally extending, and is preferably perpendicular to the boundary edge extension.In a preferred embodiment, second meter 202 ' is positioned on the 101A of first along boundary edge.
Selecting arrangement 100 ' is used for selecting suitable pillow with aforesaid the same manner.Particularly, the 101A of first with its main body 101 ' uses device 100 ' measurement first reading, i.e. user's nape being recessed into from its back in conjunction with first meter 201.As mentioned above, can obtain second reading based on first reading.
Selecting arrangement 100 ' has additional function, and namely it can be used for measuring user's waist or nape (i.e. the 3rd body part) distance of or depression recessed from user's shoulder blade and buttocks or head and back (i.e. first and second body parts) respectively.After this measured distance is called recessed reading.In a preferred embodiment, first meter 201 ' comprises another group scale in order to directly obtain recessed reading and have movable link 107 ', and it is movable so that recessed reading is obtained in operation with respect to main body 101 '.
The recessed reading that is obtained by first meter 201 ' can be expressed as described increment 107A to 107H in order to cooperate with second meter 202 ', perhaps verify in order to determine length numerical value against independent ruler, or only against being printed in one group of scale on first meter 201 ' or vicinity first meter 201 ' in order to directly read.If adopt this group scale, then should group scale form unit and be inch or centimetre scale.
As shown in Figure 15 and 16, boundary edge on the 101A of first is positioned over or is held on user's the body part (such as one of buttocks of user), and the boundary edge on the second portion 101B is positioned on another body part (such as the rear portion of shoulder blade) of user.Boundary edge (preferably showing linear edge) strides across user's back and places in cornerwise mode, such first and second part 101A and 101B be bearing on that peak (i.e. one of two shoulder blades) on the back is gone up and opposition side on user's buttocks on, wherein first meter 201 ' (along backbone) points to the darkest depressed part of waist.(first meter 201 ') movable link 107 extends so that relatively mobile and stop in the position, deep of waist then, obtains recessed reading thus, and its indication waist is from buttocks and recessed (the longest) distance of facies posterior scapulae.
Above-mentioned recessed reading is used for selecting that optimum thickness and/or flexible batts are arranged, in order to support user's back best.Above-mentioned recessed reading also is used for selecting Lordosis support, in order to support the waist that is positioned at the user on the bed.This Lordosis support can be taked the form of pad or another pillow, and has columniform shape.
Usually, user's waist is always recessed or depression for its dorsal aspect of scapula and buttocks.The different people waist differs from dorsal aspect of scapula and the recessed distance of buttocks.Normal, when the user back lies low and when using batts, its dorsal aspect of scapula and buttocks are the darkest to the degree of batts pressurization or compression, then relative compressed less or only pressurizeed a little with the corresponding batts part of user's waist.
Desirable, recognize that the upper surface of batts ought to be close to the profile at user back, support to provide completely.If batts is too thin, then may have enough materials upwards to fill, thereby between batts upper surface and user's waist, form the space.Waist is to select to support best the key factor of the batts of user's vertebra from dorsal aspect of scapula and the recessed distance of buttocks.For asking the batts of selecting to have optimum thickness, must or to consider at least preferably that as if waist is with respect to dorsal aspect of scapula and the recessed distance of buttocks.
When the user lay on one's side, its shoulder pelvis terminal and this side pressurizeed to batts.The same as described above, the batts part corresponding with user's waist may not be depressed or only depressed a little.Device 100 ' can be used for measuring the distance that waist is recessed from same one side of shoulder and pelvis or cave in.
Consider that aforementioned two recessed distances then can improve the accuracy that selection has the batts of optimum thickness.
The elasticity of batts or hardness also play an important role to providing best for user's vertebra and/or supporting completely.If batts hardness too by force or too hard, even adequate thickness is arranged, still can form the space between batts upper surface and the user's waist, because buttocks and dorsal aspect of scapula fail enough in depth to stress on batts so that best support to be provided.Therefore, measure waist with respect to the recessed batts that optimal hardness is also arranged apart from assisting to select not only optimum thickness to be arranged of shoulder blade and buttocks.
Compare with the main body 101 of first embodiment, main body 101 ' exists additional second portion 101B also can be convenient to by following first reading that obtains, namely by its second portion 101B being positioned on user's head back with point for referencial use or for stability, obtain first reading simultaneously.When operative installations 100 ' when reading the recessed reading of user's neck, boundary edge need be taked vertical orientated substantially, and cannot touch user's head in some situation.
More specifically, as shown in Figure 17 to Figure 18 B, boundary edge on the 101A of first can be positioned over (first) position of user's health, on user's health back (as the situation of first embodiment), and the boundary edge on the second portion 101B is positioned over another (second) position of user's health, namely on user's head rear portion.Boundary edge should be vertical orientated with respect to user's backbone, wherein first meter 201 and the darkest recessed position, and namely nape (i.e. the 3rd position) is equally high.So first meter 201 ' (or its movable member 107 ' that is associated of more specifically saying so) is outstanding in order to reach nape, thereby obtains recessed reading, it is corresponding to back and the head back recessed distance of user's nape from its health.
Similarly, as above the described same way as of first embodiment is obtained second reading based on first reading.According to these two readings, then can select only pillow when the user lies on the back with and/or lies on one's side, to support user's head best.
Because to the extra support of waist, the mode that the sleeper can the most comfortable is supported, and his/her backbone can keep its natural curvature to experience to help obtaining best sleep when rest like this, and releives and/or avoid back pain.
Term " pillow " is using with wide in range implication before this, its equivalence is " supporter ", usually be known as support member because this term is intended to contain, namely support the pillow of user's head or be used for supporting other support member at any other position of waist or user's health with pad or the blanket form rolled.
The present invention only provides by the mode of example, under the situation that does not break away from the scope of the invention in the claims, can carry out various other modification and/or change to above-described embodiment by those skilled in the art.
