Description

The present invention dissipates and elutes fragrance components such as plants from bedclothes such as pillows, cushions, aromatic bags, bathing agents, etc., and promotes sleep, promotes allergic symptoms, and other effects. Is.

Among plants, it is known that aroma components contained in eucalyptus have various medicinal effects such as insect and mite prevention effects, antiviral and bactericidal effects, and deodorant effects. Moreover, the usage method is mainly a method using eucalyptus essential oil.

The present invention relates to asthma, cough, sputum, rhinitis, sputum including allergic substances such as hay fever and atopy by releasing and eluting eucalyptus fragrance ingredients from bedding, cushions, aromatic bags, bathing agents, etc. Such as relief of respiratory symptoms, improvement of sleep disorders, antibacterial / insect / anti-mite / anti-mold, deodorization, improvement of skin moisturizing / barrier function, tension relief, analgesia, blood circulation promotion, etc. The purpose is to create a comfortable environment, improve allergic symptoms, promote a good night's sleep, and promote a healthy life.

Eucalyptus uses medicinal oils for medicinal purposes, but it is volatile, so the concentrated scent and medicinal ingredients are released in a short time, and because it is highly irritating, it is especially at bedtime. It is unsuitable when used for bedding such as pillows, and when used by pregnant women and infants. Therefore, the medicinal effect of eucalyptus is obtained by a method of gently releasing scent components without using essential oil.

When using it for bedding such as pillows, for the purpose of sleeping comfortably, a means is used that does not impair the comfort of sleep, and that the medicinal ingredients of eucalyptus are absorbed gently and efficiently.

Devise the shape of the packing to accommodate the size and shape suitable for the purpose of use, and use means that allows the fragrance components to be diffused and eluted smoothly.

In order to gently dissipate the fragrance and medicinal ingredients, we decided to use dried eucalyptus leaves instead of common essential oils. In addition, by using finely crushed leaves, the size and application of the bag to be filled, its use, and ease of use depending on the site of use can be accommodated.

Use a breathable and water-permeable bag so that the medicinal properties of Eucalyptus can be released and dissolved smoothly.

When used for bedding such as pillows, the shape and arrangement of pillows and aromatic bags have been devised so that scented components of eucalyptus are gently inhaled by breathing while sleeping and do not impair the comfort of sleeping.

As a method to further promote the diffusion of the scent component of eucalyptus, a heat generation function due to the oxidation heat of iron powder is added.

By using dried leaves, the eucalyptus scent and medicinal components are gently released and eluted, and allergic symptoms such as hay fever, atopy, and other respiratory symptoms such as asthma, cough, sputum, rhinitis, and sputum Relief, improvement of sleep disorders, antibacterial / insect / anti-mite / anti-mold, deodorization, improvement of skin moisturizing / barrier function, relaxation of tension, analgesia, blood circulation promotion, reduction of shoulder / muscle pain / joint pain, recovery from fatigue, etc. The effect of can be obtained.

The scent component released from the dried leaves of eucalyptus is suitable for use at bedtime because it is not excessively irritating like volatile essential oils, and can be used safely by pregnant women and infants. When used in bedding such as pillows, the scent component released from the leaves is absorbed by breathing while sleeping and acts gently and effectively. Repetitive daily absorption is effective in relieving respiratory symptoms such as asthma, cough, sputum, rhinitis, and sputum, and improving sleep disorders caused by these symptoms.

House dust mites that live in the house are known to be the main cause of allergic diseases such as atopic dermatitis and bronchial asthma. Among the scents of trees, eucalyptus scents have a prominent control effect compared to other tree species in recent studies. Fragrance components released from pillows and aromatic bags filled with eucalyptus leaves not only have the effect of suppressing symptoms such as asthma itself, but also have the effect of suppressing the cause of allergic diseases by eliminating dust mites.

If an aromatic bag filled with eucalyptus leaves is placed in the room, the antibacterial / antiviral action of the eucalyptus scent component released into the air can prevent colds and influenza.

If an aromatic bag filled with eucalyptus leaves is placed in the room, the deodorizing action of the eucalyptus scent component released into the air has the effect of suppressing living odors and pet odors.

Eucalyptus has an insect repellent effect, so if an aromatic bag filled with eucalyptus leaves is stored in a drawer or the like, it will be an insect repellent for clothing.

When used as a fragrance for shoes, the deodorant and antibacterial effect of the eucalyptus fragrance component can eliminate foot odor in the shoe and at the same time prevent mold and athlete's foot. By using dry leaves, there is also a humidity control effect in shoes that are steamed by sweating of the feet. Moreover, if the heat generating material (the same thing as a disposable body warmer) using the oxidation heat | fever of iron powder is attached, transpiration of a fragrance component can be promoted more and the effect can be heightened.

As a bathing agent, immersing a water-permeable bag filled with eucalyptus leaves in hot water at the time of bathing, the medicinal ingredients of eucalyptus eluted in the hot water bring a moisturizing effect to the skin, relieving symptoms such as dermatitis and providing resistance. Increases the effect. In addition, a medicinal component that is diffused together with steam is inhaled into the body by breathing while taking a bath, and the above-mentioned relief and relaxation effects of the respiratory system are obtained.

When a thin aromatic bag filled with eucalyptus leaves is used as an underlay for a pet cushion, etc., a pet odor eliminating effect and an insect repellent effect can be obtained.

When a heat-generating material using the oxidation heat of iron powder is attached to an aromatic bag filled with eucalyptus leaves and applied to the shoulder, etc., the eucalyptus scent component released from the heat-generating material and the thermal action By promoting blood circulation, the effect of massage and relaxation can be obtained together with the medicinal effect of absorption of eucalyptus scent components.

The eucalyptus leaves to be filled are dried and finely crushed and chopped, uncrushed and unchopped, or a mixture of both. The bag to be filled uses a breathable outer packaging material, and when used as a bathing agent, uses a water-permeable outer packaging material to smoothly disperse and elute eucalyptus medicinal ingredients.

Dry eucalyptus leaves are filled into a bag made of breathable exterior material and used as a pillow or aromatic bag. The eucalyptus leaves to be filled are selected and used in the shape shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 show this example. By changing the filling amount and size balance of the eucalyptus leaves that can be placed in the bag, it can be adapted to the comfort of the pillow and the size of the aromatic bag.

FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 show a state in which a thin, air-permeable bag filled with eucalyptus leaves is placed on a pillow that is generally commercially available and covered with a pillow cover. While making the sleeping comfort of pillows of various shapes and materials feel almost uncomfortable, it can be warmed by the body temperature of the head while sleeping to promote the release of the scent component of eucalyptus and obtain medicinal effects through breathing.
