Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne des oreillers gonflables et plus particulièrement un oreiller de ce type mais qui est destiné A etre utilisé quotidiennement tout en présentant des caractéristiques fonctionnelles analogues a' celles d'oreillers fabriqués 4 partir de matières plastiques sous forme de mousse. The present invention relates to inflatable pillows and more particularly a pillow of this type but which is intended to be used daily while having functional characteristics similar to those of pillows made from plastics in the form of foam.
Un oreiller de voyage gonflable utilisable quotidiennement a déj- été décrit dans la demande de brevet français antérieure No 89 08687 du Demandeur, cet oreiller se caractérisant en ce qu'il comporte au moins trois boudins disposés parallèlement, les boudins terminaux présentant une section différente et les boudins intermédiaires une section plus petite que celle du plus petit des boudins terminaux. An inflatable travel pillow that can be used daily has already been described in prior French patent application No. 89 08687 of the Applicant, this pillow being characterized in that it comprises at least three flanges arranged in parallel, the terminal flanges having a different section and the intermediate tubes a section smaller than that of the smallest of the terminal tubes.
Cet oreiller connu a ensuite été perfectionné par le Demandeur et le certificat d'addition No 89 13611 prévoit que les boudins soient séparés par des soudures intermédiaires s'étendant transversalement et en ce que des lumières sont prévues dans au moins certaines des soudures intermédiaires. This known pillow was then perfected by the Applicant and the certificate of addition No 89 13611 provides that the tubes are separated by intermediate welds extending transversely and in that lights are provided in at least some of the intermediate welds.
Les oreillers suivant le brevet et le certificat d'addition ci-dessus sont particulièrement satisfaisants en tant qu'oreillers de voyage car ils permettent, par la différence de dimension des boudins qui les constituent, d'assurer un bon maintien du rachis cervical particulièrement lorsque l'utilisateur est couché sur le dos. The pillows according to the patent and the certificate of addition above are particularly satisfactory as travel pillows because they allow, by the difference in size of the tubes which constitute them, to ensure a good maintenance of the cervical spine especially when the user is lying on his back.
La présente invention concerne un nouvel oreiller fonctionnel utilisable qui apporte de nouveaux perfectionnements et qui permet d'obtenir des qualités de confort supérieures a la plupart des oreillers existants fabriqués de manière conventionnelle. The present invention relates to a new functional usable pillow which brings new improvements and which makes it possible to obtain qualities of comfort superior to most of the existing pillows manufactured in a conventional manner.
En outre, l'oreiller suivant la présente invention peut voir son confort adapté au gré de son utilisateur. In addition, the pillow according to the present invention can have its comfort adapted to the liking of its user.
De plus, il assure le maintien du rachis cervical quelle que soit la position de l'utilisateur car il permet en meme temps un centrage de la tête de celui-ci. In addition, it ensures the maintenance of the cervical spine whatever the position of the user because it allows at the same time a centering of the head thereof.
Conformément - l'invention, l'oreiller fonctionnel gonflable comporte un corps réalisé S partir de feuilles en matière imperméable soudées entre elles suivant des lignes périphériques pour délimiter une couronne entourant un coussin. According to the invention, the functional inflatable pillow comprises a body made from sheets of waterproof material welded together along peripheral lines to delimit a crown surrounding a cushion.
Diverses autres caractéristiques de l'invention ressortent d'ailleurs de la description détaillée qui suit. Various other characteristics of the invention will also emerge from the detailed description which follows.
Une forme de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention est représentée, A titre d'exemple non limitatif, au dessin annexé. An embodiment of the object of the invention is shown, by way of nonlimiting example, in the accompanying drawing.
La fig 1 est une perspective vue de dessus du corps de l'oreiller fonctionnel gonflable de l'invention. Fig 1 is a perspective view from above of the body of the inflatable functional pillow of the invention.
La fig. 2 est une perspective du corps du même oreiller que celui de la fig. 1 mais vu de dessous. Fig. 2 is a perspective of the body of the same pillow as that of FIG. 1 but seen from below.
La fig. 3 est une perspective de l'oreiller, analogue A la fig. 1, l'oreiller étant non encore muni d'une taie. Fig. 3 is a perspective of the pillow, similar to FIG. 1, the pillow not yet having a pillowcase.
La fig. 4 est une coupe transversale de l'oreiller muni d'une taie. Fig. 4 is a cross section of the pillow provided with a pillowcase.
Le corps 1 de l'oreiller est constitué " partir de deux feuilles 2, 3 en matière imperméable, par exemple en tissu enduit qui sont collées ou soudées ensemble le long d'une ligne périphérique 4. The body 1 of the pillow is made up of two sheets 2, 3 of impermeable material, for example of coated fabric which are glued or welded together along a peripheral line 4.
Les feuilles 2 et 3 sont, en outre, soudées le long d'une ligne périphérique interne 5. La conformation des feuilles 2, 3 est choisie pour que l'oreiller délimite une partie saillante 6 A partir de ses bords latéraux pour correspondre A la nuque de l'usager. The sheets 2 and 3 are, moreover, welded along an internal peripheral line 5. The conformation of the sheets 2, 3 is chosen so that the pillow delimits a protruding part 6 From its lateral edges to correspond to the neck of the user.
Par ailleurs, les lignes de soudure périphériques 4 et 5 font que l'oreiller délimite une couronne 7 lorsqu'il est gonflé. La ligne de soudure périphérique interne 5 délimite la partie interne de la couronne 7 et le bord externe d'un coussin 8. Furthermore, the peripheral weld lines 4 and 5 cause the pillow to define a crown 7 when it is inflated. The internal peripheral weld line 5 delimits the internal part of the crown 7 and the external edge of a cushion 8.
Comme le montre le dessin, le coussin 8 est de moindre épaisseur que la couronne 7 c'est-ss-dire que le coussin 8 se trouve complètement entouré par la couronne 7 gonflée et que ce coussin est en même temps suspendu sans reposer sur la surface qui supporte la couronne 7. As the drawing shows, the cushion 8 is thinner than the crown 7, that is to say that the cushion 8 is completely surrounded by the inflated crown 7 and that this cushion is at the same time suspended without resting on the surface which supports the crown 7.
La fig. 2 montre que des valves de gonflage 9 et 10 sont prévues respectivement 7 partir du dessous de la couronne 7 et du dessous du coussin 8 pour gonfler ces deux parties du corps et l'oreiller -i des pressions pouvant être différentes et qui sont respectivement choisies en fonction du confort recherché par l'utilisateur et de sa morphologie. Le gonflage est effectué par un gonfleur manuel 11 dont l'embout est évidemment choisi pour être compatible avec les deux valves 9 et 10. Fig. 2 shows that inflation valves 9 and 10 are provided respectively 7 from below the crown 7 and from below the cushion 8 to inflate these two parts of the body and the pillow -i pressures may be different and which are respectively chosen depending on the comfort sought by the user and his morphology. The inflation is carried out by a manual inflator 11 whose tip is obviously chosen to be compatible with the two valves 9 and 10.
Le corps d'oreiller, lorsqu'il est gonflé, est recouvert, comme le montrent les fig. 3 et 4, par un tapis 13, de préférence légèrement matelassé réalisé en une matière perméable textile ou non. The pillow body, when inflated, is covered, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, by a mat 13, preferably slightly padded made of a permeable textile material or not.
Le tapis 15 peut être seulement porté sur le corps de l'oreiller ou fixé n celui-ci par des organes de liaison non représentés, par exemple des bandes adhésives telles que celles connues sous la dénomination Velcro. The mat 15 can only be carried on the body of the pillow or fixed to it by not shown connecting members, for example adhesive tapes such as those known under the name Velcro.
L'oreiller est ensuite disposé dans une taie 14 de manière que son toucher soit similaire - celui d'un oreiller conventionnel pour l'utilisateur. The pillow is then placed in a pillowcase 14 so that its feel is similar - that of a conventional pillow for the user.
Outre ce qui précède, il est avantageux, comme le montrent les fig. 1 et 2, que les feuilles 2, 3 présentent au moins une soudure annulaire 15 pour délimiter au moins un trou 16 de ventilation dans le coussin 8. In addition to the above, it is advantageous, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, that the sheets 2, 3 have at least one annular weld 15 to delimit at least one ventilation hole 16 in the cushion 8.
Comme cela ressort de ce qui précède, la couronne 7 constitue un support pour le coussin 8 qui est suspendu et qui est normalement plus souple que la couronne qui assure ei la fois le centrage de la tête de l'usager et le support du rachis cervical. As is apparent from the above, the crown 7 constitutes a support for the cushion 8 which is suspended and which is normally more flexible than the crown which ensures both the centering of the user's head and the support of the cervical spine .
Par ailleurs, le dessus du coussin se trouvant - un niveau inférieur au-dessus de la couronne, le matelas 13 tend a' former une légère concavité 17 ainsi que l'illustre la fig. 3, cette concavité concourant au confort donné par l'oreiller. Furthermore, the top of the cushion being - a level lower than the crown, the mattress 13 tends to form a slight concavity 17 as illustrated in FIG. 3, this concavity contributing to the comfort given by the pillow.
L'invention n'est pas limitée 7 l'exemple de réalisation, représenté et décrit en détail, car diverses modifications peuvent y être apportées sans sortir de son cadre. The invention is not limited to 7 the embodiment, shown and described in detail, because various modifications can be made without departing from its scope.
