  • the pillow is in its basic shape and without a pillow case and without one usually present Pillowcase shown.
  • pillows made of natural latex the basic form is given and changed by the production only by giving in the pillow elastically under pressure. The burden falls on the user away, the pillow takes the one shown in the figure again Basic shape or rest position.
  • the pillow has one actual pillow part 2, which to support the head of a pillow user, and one in contrast, increased neck support part 3, on which the user's neck or neck area is coming.

  • Figure 1 is shown as an example that in both chambers an insert 8 or 9 is provided.
  • the stakes are adapted to the shape of the chamber, which in the example shown is hollow cylindrical, so that corresponding inserts 8 and 9 have a cylindrical shape. Other shapes are of course also possible. On this results from inserting the inserts no change in the height of the basic shape or Rest position of the pillow. A change in hardness and therefore also the altitude in use or when used as intended Loading of the neck support part 3 results however, due to the different hardness of the inserts 8 and 9.
  • the sentence inserts of the pillow which have at least two inserts 8 and 9, further enables variation the hardness by making the bets each different Exhibit hardness.
  • the inserts 8 and 9 can be made Foam of different hardness consist of or other materials with different hardness. For example, for the illustrated pillow with two chambers its set from inserts from three inserts with the hardness soft, medium, and persist hard.
