Definitions

  • the invention relates to a medical pillow according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a pillow of this type is known from FR-A-2161 519, the additional pillow in the form of a neck roll being connected to the base pillow by means of a cord wrapped around the base pillow.
  • the additional cushion is very easy to move relative to the basic cushion, and its position relative to the basic cushion is also not precisely defined.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a medical pillow of the type mentioned that it serves better for the regeneration of the cervical vertebra area during sleep and the additional pillow assumes a predetermined position relative to the basic pillow.
  • the additional cushion is connected to the basic cushion by a seam, the additional cushion is fixed in position relative to the basic cushion, the seam running through the basic cushion dividing the basic cushion into two sections, so that the filling in these two parts provides the desired support can be adapted and a shift of this filling between the two sections of the base cushion can not occur during use.
  • a rectangular base pillow 4 is provided, on which an additional pillow 5 is sewn in the lower area, which forms a thickened area and extends over the width of the base pillow 4.
  • the basic cushion has a preferred dimension of 40 to 80 cm in height and 60 to 80 cm in width, while the additional cushion has a height of approx. 10 to 20 cm in a width of 60 to 80 cm.
  • the additional cushion 5 is arranged on the cushion in such a way that the lower edge of the additional cushion is preferably at a distance of approximately 5 cm from the lower edge of the cushion.
  • Basic and additional cushions can have the same filling and also a different filling, for example a filling made of feathers, of synthetic material or a mixture thereof.
  • the cervical spine area rests on the additional cushion 5, the upper and lower cervical spine in particular being supported, while the shoulders are supported by the lower, approximately 5 cm high edge section of the basic cushion.
  • flexion and shoulder protrusion are individually different, the medical pillow described can be used in addition to the previously used pillow, the thickness of which must be reduced accordingly by reducing the filling.
  • the width of the pillow is designed so that it allows a comfortable head rotation on each side, but it is not so wide that the arm lying above the head is still lying on the pillow in a lateral position. This would lead to excessive stretching of the large chest muscle.
  • the width of the pillow is therefore preferably 60 cm.
  • the height dimension of the pillow is designed so that the head, cervical spine and upper shoulder muscles are supported, but not the shoulder itself.
  • the back scalp should be approximately in the middle of the pillow. Since the pillow filling should support certain height sections, the individual sections may only be moved slightly in this direction.
  • the distance between shoulder and occiput is about 15 cm.
  • the minimum height, if the back of the head should be in the middle of the pillow, is 30 cm. However, since the head should have a minimal, individually different bending position, a displacement zone of about 10 cm is added. This results in the previously specified height dimension of 40 cm.
  • the filling is designed in such a way that it supports the individual levels sufficiently, but allows small individual displacements. It is from on right free standing of the body. In this position, the back scalp is 1 cm from the posterior longitudinal perpendicular, the cervical spine a maximum of 3 cm and the upper 5 cm of the thoracic spine is again about 1 cm away. Accordingly, the pillow filling can be designed so that the head weight compresses the filling in the middle of the pillow to about 1 cm in thickness. Since the weight of the approximately 10 cm long cervical spine (vertical dimension) is lower, it is sufficient if the filling in this area is only twice as strong.
  • the distance from the upper shoulder to the seventh cervical vertebra is approximately 5 cm. Accordingly, the thickened section 2 or the additional cushion 5 is arranged at a distance of about 5 cm from the lower edge of the base cushion, which forms a section of 10 cm (vertical dimension) with double filling for supporting the cervical spine.
  • the remaining height section of the basic pillow of 25 cm (vertical dimension) has the basic filling.
  • the additional pillow 5 is sewn onto the basic pillow at least in sections along the lower edge in order to enable displacement zones in the area of the epidermis .
  • the lower, 5 cm high edge section of the basic pillow supports the upper shoulder muscles in the supine position, but not the shoulders themselves. In the lateral position, this lower section is pushed upwards by the shoulder which steps higher and thus helps to support the head, which is higher in the lateral position thus should lie on the double padded section.
  • the sewn-on additional cushion 5 is widened on both sides from a height dimension of approximately 10 cm in the middle to approximately 15 cm upwards, the wavy edge 7 formed thereby forming approximately that Impression of the hairline follows, as shown in Fig. 1.
  • the lower edge of the additional cushion 5 runs approximately parallel to the lower edge of the base cushion 4, since the correction is carried out by the shoulders in this area.
  • the stitching at a distance of about 5 cm from the lower edge of the pillow is carried out as a loose stitching.
  • two quilting seams 8 running approximately parallel to the side edges are provided, which run on the additional cushion 5 at a distance of approximately 15 cm from the side edge, so that there is an approximately 30 cm wide section in the middle.
  • the seam with which the additional cushion 5 is fastened to the base cushion 4 at the bottom runs through the base cushion, so that the base cushion is subdivided into a 5 cm high section at the bottom and a 35 cm high section at the top, as shown in FIG. 3.
  • a pillow supports the cervical spine on the one hand, but on the other hand, the upper displacement zone in the area of the exposed upper edge of the additional pillow enables an eccentric head position and an adaptation to an individual radius of curvature and flexion angle of the occiput.
  • a lower guide line for the prominent seventh cervical vertebra is provided for the lateral position. This guidance also encourages the head to step higher, with a lower displacement zone being provided by the lower, 5 cm high edge section of the base cushion.
  • a mixture of 70% polyester and 30% new wool is preferably provided as the filling for the basic and additional pillows.
  • the thickness dimension of the pillow can be, for example, 15-20 cm, the section provided for the support of the cervical vertebra area being additionally 5-10 cm thick.
