Definitions

  • the invention relates to an orthopedic pillow, in particular a pillow, with a frame-like filler body, which has two longitudinal and two transverse legs and which lies in a pillowcase.
  • An orthopedic pillow of this type is known from EP-A2 0069079.
  • the shape of the frame brings a type of reclining that is comparable to that of the top roller, in which the row of cervical vertebrae is supported according to its natural curvature, with the back of the head protruding towards it reaching into the frame recess.
  • the relevant pillow has practically equivalent flexibility in the area of all frame legs.
  • the object of the invention is to develop a generic orthopedic pillow in a technically simple, more convenient manner so that an individually adjustable to the well-being of the user adjustment of the support or lying comfort is achieved.
  • an orthopedic cushion that is optimized with regard to the variability of use is created.
  • the resting person can choose the part of the pillow that seems most comfortable to him. No technical changes to the pillow are required. Rather, this provides differently flexible zones. Rest or sleep will be relaxing. The muscles and intervertebral discs as well as the sensitive cervical nodes are noticeably relieved. The head and neck find gentle support. The procedure is simply that the longitudinal legs are bulges with different elasticity. Especially the use of the longitudinal legs, i.e. longer legs, offers the head the greater unwinding length, for example, when the resting person turns to the side; the head does not fall off the pillow.
  • the corresponding longitudinal orientation also creates the possibility of creating a higher headrest by folding the pillow about the longitudinal central axis, for example if the resting person wants to read.
  • an orthopedic pillow is not limited to the head and neck area. It can be used as a back pad.
  • its use in the sense of a step bed is conceivable, for example, to bring relief to people with sciatica or lower-lying intervertebral disc sufferers.
  • stacking of such orthopedic pillows makes it possible to use a high position of the legs, a particularly soft support being important especially for the hollow of the knee area, since stronger pressure against the knee joint vein hinders the backflow of blood through the same.
  • the procedure is then such that the beads are designed as hollow beads, one of the hollow beads being unfilled and the other hollow bead having a strip insert.
  • the beads are designed as hollow beads, one of the hollow beads being unfilled and the other hollow bead having a strip insert.
  • the elasticity of the material forming the filler is used alone, but also the tube shape or chambering of the beads, which can be easily achieved by wall spacing.
  • the filling of the other hollow bead brings the less flexible part of the pillow.
  • the beads are designed as hollow beads, one hollow bead having a strip insert of higher elasticity and the other hollow bead having a strip insert of lower elasticity.
  • Grading via the strip insert proves to be particularly advantageous since the same material can always be assumed with regard to the material forming the beads. This simplifies storage and also reduces administration costs.
  • the strip insert which is kept smaller in its dimensions, is of less importance in this regard. Specifically, the situation is such that one strip insert consists of large-pore polyurethane foam and the other strip insert consists of small-pore polyurethane foam. In this respect, there is not even a difference in material, but only a structural modification of the foam structure, easily accessible via the blowing agent.
  • Variations can also be achieved in an advantageous manner via the dimension factor, in that the beads are again designed as hollow beads, in which case one of the hollow beads has a strip insert of larger cross-section and the other hollow bead has a strip insert of smaller cross-section, of course with a constant bead cut size.
  • the strip inserts consist of open-pore polyurethane foams.
  • the foam structure forms a kind of air throttle; compression of the strip insert material results in a delayed escape.
  • the degree of elasticity is higher overall, so the support is softer.
  • a solution which is favorable in terms of production also consists in that the frame-like filler body consists of two halves connected to one another on the outer and inner edge.
  • the pillow shown has a rectangular layout. This is approx. - dimensions 65 x 40 cm. The maximum thickness when unloaded is approx. 13 cm.
  • the shape-determining component of the orthopedic pillow is a frame-like filler F.
  • the latter has two longitudinal legs that run parallel to one another and two transverse legs that are also aligned.
  • the longitudinal legs are Bumps of different degrees of elasticity. They are made of polyurethane foam (soft foam).
  • the beads 1, 2 are designed as hollow beads, the difference in elasticity according to a basic version being based on the fact that one of the hollow beads is unfilled and the other hollow bead contains a strip insert 3.
  • the unfilled hollow bead consequently forms a softer filler section than the filled one.
  • a variant consists in that one hollow bead has a strip insert of higher elasticity and the other hollow bead has a strip insert 3 of lower elasticity.
  • the strip inserts 3 acting in the manner of a solidifying core have a rectangular cross section. The longer side of the rectangle runs parallel to the central plane E-E of the pillow (see Fig. 2).
  • a further modification with regard to a differentiation of the elasticity is further that, with the same hollow body structure, one of the hollow beads has a strip insert 3 of larger cross section and the other hollow bead has a strip insert of smaller cross section. With the same cavity dimension, this leads to a kind of precompression in one hollow bead, that is to say, overall to a denser structure. This hollow bead then turns out to be less soft.
  • one strip insert consists of large-pore polyurethane foam and the other strip insert consists of small-pore polyurethane foam.
  • the large-pore polyurethane foam is the more elastic of the two. With regard to the polyurethane foam, it is advisable to use open-pore material.
  • the hollow shape of the packing F is achieved using two halves connected to one another on the outer and inner edge, the upper one being designated by a and the lower one by b.
  • Said connection points have the reference number 4. It can be an adhesive connection; However, preference is given to thermal, using the appropriately thermally responsive polyurethane foam.
  • the two halves a and b are plate-shaped die-cuts made of a polyurethane foam sheet. The thickness of such a plate is approximately 3 cm.
  • the cross-sectional dimensions of the strip inserts 3 are normally 5 x 3.5 cm.
  • the shorter cross legs of the frame-shaped packing F are also hollow beads, designated 5 and 6 (see FIG. 3).
  • the hollows 7, 8 visible through the center cut in turn create optimally soft lying or support zones. In the center section (Fig. 3), only the strip insert is shown in reserve for better identification.
  • the packing F is surrounded by a wadding W. It is a particularly plush material.
  • the assignment is implemented in the manner of a wrapping jacket.
  • winding layers are created, but these are not shown in the drawing.
  • the beginning and end of the layer are preferably in the area of the plane E-E, i. H. in the area of the pointed pillow corner edges.
  • the wrapping material consists of a relatively thick-walled fleece made of polyester fibers.
  • the polydirectional Lying fibers interlock on the contact side, so that there is an almost homogeneous bond.
  • the padding W is contracted in the interior of the frame while also capturing a pillow case 9 by means of padded handle buttons 10 or the like.
  • buttons are common in upholstery and therefore do not require any further explanation.
  • cotton is preferably used.
  • the padded buttons 10 can be irreversible, so that the pillow case can be removed for washing, taking into account, for example, a zippered edge strip.
  • the materials used also allow the entire cushion to be cleaned.
  • the wadding W which brings about a particularly soft sheathing, also assumes an approximately elliptical shape with regard to the cross section, but with a somewhat larger extension in the axis of the ellipse. This is clear from Fig. 2.
  • the width ratio to the thickness in the area of the shorter ellipse axis is 2 to 1.
  • the longitudinal central retraction created by the binding on both broad sides of the pillow bears the reference number 11.
  • the reference number 11 In the retraction area there is a cross section which corresponds to a fraction of the pillow thickness. The lying person hardly comes into contact with the fastening elements, which are also kept quite flat.
