Description

  The present invention relates to a sleep pillow, and more particularly to a cervical support / height adjustment pillow in which a head support pack and a cervical vertebra support pack are integrally covered with a cloth cover.

  For the human body, the cervical vertebra is located at the top of the vertebral column due to the structure of the body, and is composed of seven neck bones that support the head, called vertebrae. Functionally, this cervical spine is a nerve transmission path that connects the brain and body, which is important for living, and motor nerves, sensory nerves, and autonomic nerves are distributed throughout the body via this cervical spine. ing. For this reason, when a strong pressure is applied somewhere on the cervical spine or a disorder occurs, an unpleasant symptom such as a wound or stiffness appears in a portion controlled by the cervical spine.

  The pillow has the role of comfortably supporting the head and relaxing the cervical spine during sleep. However, if you do not notice and you have a pillow that does not fit your body structure, especially the cervical vertebrae, stress will be applied to the cervical vertebra and its surroundings, which will greatly affect nerves and muscles. Among them, the autonomic nerves are easily affected, and the muscles are compressed by the compression of the cervical vertebrae, blood circulation is worsened, shoulder stiffness and muscle pain are felt, and the airways are narrowed by the compression, which can cause snoring A failure occurs.

  The applicant of the present application previously disclosed a pillow that can appropriately support the cervical vertebra and obtain a comfortable sleeping state as a sleeping pillow in the registered utility model No. 3066086 shown in Patent Document 1.

  As shown in FIG. 5, this pillow has a head pack 1 that supports the head and a cervical vertebra pack 2 on the body side of the head pack 1, and a cloth cover 4 between the packs. In a separated state, the entire body is integrally covered, and this laterally long cervical vertebra pack is formed by dividing it into three parts, and the height and hardness of each part is adjusted to adjust the filling amount. It is intended to obtain a comfortable sleeping posture by freely adjusting the position.

  As shown in FIG. 6, in the sleeping state, the cervical vertebra pack 2 hits the cervical spine moderately, thereby obtaining a comfortable sleeping state.

  However, the previously proposed sleep pillow has insufficient pillow stability, is difficult to adjust the height, and it is difficult to obtain a comfortable sleep state that matches the shape of the user's back of the head.

Further, Patent Document 2 describes that in a normal single pillow, a plurality of sheet materials are stacked on the upper surface of the main body and covered with a cover cloth to adjust the height of the pillow in small increments. ing. However, since the height adjustment sheet is placed on the upper surface of the pillow and fixed by covering it with a surface covering material, the stability is poor, and the head is subject to the present invention. It cannot be applied as it is to a pillow in which the cervical vertebra pack 2 is arranged in the pack.
Registered Utility Model No. 3066086 JP 2001-169887 A

  The object of the present invention relates to the improvement of the sleeping pillow proposed in the registered utility model No. 3066086, and obtains the stability of the cervical vertebra pack of the sleeping pillow and provides a simple and reliable height adjusting means. Thus, a comfortable sleep state is sought by a comfortable support of the cervical vertebra part.

  In the present invention, a head pack that supports the head, and a cervical vertebra pack that supports the cervical vertebra part via a sheet on the body side of the head pack, and the packs are separated from each other by a cloth cover. The cervical vertebra support / height adjustment pillow that covers the whole body is a separate cervical vertebra pack that is separated in the direction of the head pack, thereby stabilizing the cervical vertebra pack and reducing the bias of the cervical vertebra pack It is to prevent.

  In addition, on both sides of the cervical vertebra pack, a laying pack used for lying on a slightly higher height than the cervical vertebra pack can be arranged to prevent the lateral displacement of the cervical vertebra pack.

  Furthermore, in order to increase the stability of the cervical vertebra pack, the cervical vertebra pack is preferably brought into close contact with the head pack as much as possible. For this purpose, the end surface of the head pack on the cervical vertebra pack side is made as vertical as possible. Thereby, the head pack and the cervical vertebra pack can be placed as close as possible to each other to prevent misalignment during use.

  In addition, each pack should be a soft pillow according to the user's preference, depending on the application location, in a cloth bag having the size and required shape that constitutes the cervical spine support / height adjustment pillow as a whole. For this purpose, polyester granules, usually called spherical cotton, can be used, and short pipes made of polyethylene, buckwheat, cotton, cypress grains, etc. can be used to make a harder pillow.

  Further, depending on the use of the pack, for example, the head pack and the lying pack can be filled with cotton, and the cervical pack can be hardened, for example.

  The stability of the cervical vertebra pack can be improved, and the user can easily adjust the height, which can lead to a more comfortable sleep state.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on examples.
