El campo de aplicación de la presente invención se enmarca dentro del sector técnico de la industria dedicada a la fabricación de artículos acolchados en general y particularmente artículos de descanso, concretamente almohadas y similares, sin que se descarte su aplicación a cualquier otros elementos acolchados de espuma de tipo terapéutico o para otros usos, tales como almohadillas cervicales, soportes lumbares, cuñas ortopédicas.The field of application of the present invention It is part of the technical sector of the industry dedicated to the manufacture of padded articles in general and particularly resting items, specifically pillows and the like, without its application is discarded to any other padded elements of therapeutic type foam or for other uses, such as cervical pads, lumbar supports, orthopedic wedges.

Antecedentes de la invenciónBackground of the invention

Como es sabido, la espuma de poliuretano o gomaespuma, es un material plástico poroso formado por burbujas que se forman por la reacción química de un poliol y un isocianato, aunque su formulación necesita y admite múltiples variantes y aditivos.As is known, polyurethane foam or foam rubber, is a porous plastic material formed by bubbles that they are formed by the chemical reaction of a polyol and an isocyanate, although its formulation needs and supports multiple variants and additives

Una de dichas variantes es la espuma viscoelástica que, constituida por celdas abiertas autoventiladas, se destaca esencialmente por tener unos intervalos de temperatura de transición vítrea muy amplios y entre cuyas características más destacables y apreciables, especialmente en el mundo del descanso, cabe mencionar su gran adaptabilidad a cualquier cuerpo que transmita presión y temperatura a este material, ofreciendo altas cotas de confort. La espuma viscoelástica es, pues, un material que se puede decir que tiene memoria, ya que se amolda al cuerpo disipando la presión que este ejerce sobre el mismo, existiendo diferentes tipos de la misma en función de su densidad.One of these variants is foam viscoelastic which, consisting of self-ventilated open cells, It stands out essentially for having temperature ranges of very wide glass transition and between whose characteristics more remarkable and appreciable, especially in the world of rest, It is worth mentioning its great adaptability to any body that transmit pressure and temperature to this material, offering high comfort levels. The viscoelastic foam is thus a material that it can be said that it has memory, since it conforms to the body dissipating the pressure it exerts on it, existing Different types of it depending on their density.

Otra de las variantes o tipos de espumas de poliuretano son las conocidas como espuma "soft" que poseen como principal característica el estar formadas, a nivel macromolecular, por una serie de celdas que forman entre sí una comunicada red de minúsculos canales en toda la masa de la pieza. Estas celdas poseen un tamaño grande y, además, presentan un altísimo porcentaje de paredes abiertas. Esta configuración se traduce en una gran red de pequeñísimos canales por los que el aire circula libremente, lo cual hace que, en artículos fabricados con esta espuma soft, se consiga una sensación de diferencia térmica entre la zona del cuerpo que está en contacto con la espuma y la que no lo está.Another of the variants or types of polyurethane foams are those known as " soft " foam, whose main characteristic is to be formed, at the macromolecular level, by a series of cells that form a communicated network of tiny channels throughout the mass. Of the piece. These cells have a large size and also have a very high percentage of open walls. This configuration translates into a large network of tiny channels through which air circulates freely, which means that, in articles made with this soft foam, a sensation of thermal difference is achieved between the area of the body that is in contact with the foam and the one that isn't.

Pues bien, en la actualidad, y como referencia al estado de la técnica, debe señalarse que, si bien existen en el mercado un amplio repertorio de productos fabricados con diferentes formulaciones de espumas de poliuretano así como una vasta gama de aplicaciones para dichos materiales, por parte del solicitante se desconoce la existencia de ninguna almohada o elemento de espuma similar que presente una estructura mixta de características técnicas y constitutivas semejantes a las que presenta la que aquí se preconiza, es decir, que combine las ventajas de la espuma viscoelástica y las de la espuma soft en un mismo producto, siendo el objetivo de la presente invención aportar al mercado una que resuelva dicha carencia.Well, at present, and as a reference to the state of the art, it should be noted that, although there is a wide range of products manufactured with different formulations of polyurethane foams as well as a wide range of applications for such materials, on the part of the applicant the existence of any pillow or similar foam element that presents a mixed structure of technical and constitutive characteristics similar to those presented here is unknown, that is, that combines the advantages of viscoelastic foam and the of soft foam in the same product, the objective of the present invention being to provide the market with one that solves said lack.
