Description

The present invention relates to the structure of pillows and cushions.

Currently, pillows and cushions used for the body have various shapes and functions that correspond to different parts of the body, and are widely used in various daily life situations.
On the other hand, the human body has evolved into a skeletal structure that supports a large and heavy head, and the standing posture is the most stable posture.
However, sitting in a chair and leaning against a sofa is becoming more common as a resting position.
On the other hand, sitting posture is a posture in which the S-shaped structure of the neck, which supports the heavy head, becomes unstable, and it places a great burden on each part of the body, so it can cause various diseases in various parts of the body such as the neck and lower back. is inviting.
On the other hand, the lying posture has been a posture for resting the body since ancient times, without the use of tools. However, in the lying position during sleep, cushions and bedding are used to support and maintain the body over a long period of time during which the body readjusts itself.

Next, the neck supports the large, heavy head, which rests on a bone-muscular system that has evolved into a structure specialized for bipedal walking, and when standing, the body constantly sways and unconsciously maintains its balance. ing.
In other words, the body structure has not acquired the bone and muscle structure that corresponds to the posture of sitting on a chair.
In addition, in real life situations, various neck pillows, nap cushions, etc. are used for resting in a sitting position or for napping.
On the other hand, when sitting while moving, a neck pillow is used, which inhibits the pendulum-like movement of the neck that supports the heavy head, and the structure that fixes the neck imposes various burdens on various parts of the body.

Next, the upper limbs have evolved into a structure that is compatible with the use of fingers and arms, and they hang from both shoulders, which is a hindrance when not in use when lying down. It is needed when tossing and turning, and in order to stabilize it, it is stabilized by wrapping both hands around a body pillow.
In addition, when living in a standing position for long periods of time, various known foot pillows are used to relieve fatigue in the lower limbs.
However, to relieve fatigue in the lower limbs, various structures are available to accommodate the height and tossing and turning required by each person, but foot pillows are specialized for specific purposes, and can be used for general purposes. The pillow is missing.

Next, cushions, stuffed toys, and the like are widely used and come in many shapes and sizes for the purpose of keeping the body in a comfortable posture.
However, the use of these cushions and stuffed toys is limited by the shape of a single block.

In the first place, when lying down, the head is large, the neck is required to be slightly taller due to the difference in height from other parts such as the shoulders and lower back, and the need to maintain the complex S-order structure. Since ancient times, pillow-like pillows that raise the head slightly higher have been used.
Nowadays, various types of bedding are used, indoor environments have improved, and the sleeping environment has significantly improved.
However, today, sleep disorders are viewed as a problem, and efforts are being made to address sleep issues from various angles.
Therefore, the importance of pillows has been pointed out, but as the flood of various types of pillows shows, a solution has not yet been reached, and various improvements are being made every day.

Patent Document 1 proposes a pillow that relaxes the suboccipital muscle group, and a pillow and bedding that relaxes the erector spinae muscles.
This proposal connects three or more long rod-shaped pillow materials in the width direction, forms a slit in the center of the pillow materials, and connects and bundles a large number of pillow materials with elastic connecting members to create a pillow. It consists of
In other words, when you place your head on the pillow, the pillow material collapses and deforms, and the multiple slits in the center of the pillow material distribute the load on the head, deforming it so that it extends toward the top of the head, and the cervical vertebrae elongate. This allows the suboccipital muscles to relax to an appropriate degree.
However, this proposal involves constructing a pillow by connecting and bundling three or more long rod-shaped pillow materials, which is a complex structure that combines many different types of materials, and there are concerns about consumer support. It is something.

Patent Document 2 proposes a solution to the problem of deformation of the left and right parts of the neck when trying to suppress the problem of stuffiness on the left and right sides of the neck, which is a problem with U-shaped pillows that target the neck during naps. has been done.
This proposal aims to suppress deformation of the side portions when a through hole is provided in a pair of side surfaces and a member is provided to improve the supporting force of the portion of the through hole.
However, this proposal does not change the structure of the U-shaped pillow that targets the neck during a nap, but instead makes the structure more complicated and increases the number of components, which increases manufacturing costs, hygiene, and complexity of handling. There is a fear that this could lead to

Patent No. 7357855 Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2019-63170

To date, pillows used for the human body have been individually adapted to the head, neck, lower back, feet, etc., and a large number of products have been provided based on the shape and performance required for each area.

Further, as for the material of the storage section 3 shown in FIG. 5, it is a matter of course that an elastic material capable of sealing air is used, but the material is neither specified nor limited.
Furthermore, although the storage section 3 shown in FIG. 5 is made of an elastic material and is formed to gradually become thicker from both ends toward the center, there is no specificity or limitation to this embodiment. It's not something you do.

Next, the coupling parts 4 shown in FIG. 5 are formed in four places in the first storage part 3A, four in the second storage part 3B, and four in the third storage part 3C. Examples are provided and are not intended to be specific or limiting.
Further, the joint portion 4 shown in FIG. 5 is formed at the end portion of the three-piece storage portion 3, and the specification is shown to facilitate the expansion of the gap portion 5 of the three-piece storage portion 3, but it is not specified or limited. It's not a thing.
Further, although the connecting portion 4 shown in FIG. 5 shows an example in which air is used as the filling material 2 and the storage portion 3 is formed of an elastic material, this is not intended to be specific or limited to this embodiment. Naturally, known materials and bonding means may be employed.

First, existing neck pillows are formed in a U-shape and are used to surround the user's neck, which fixes the neck area and takes away the flexibility of the body and holds it too rigidly. However, it feels too cramped to use, and the structure also takes away the flexibility of the body.
Next, the neck pillow 8 shown in FIG. 5 is formed by connecting the first storage part 3A, the second storage part 3B, and the third storage part 3C at the joint part 4 to form a three-dimensional structure. An example of the characteristics is shown.
In other words, the neck pillow 8 shown in FIG. 5 has a structure that flexibly responds to the left and right inclination of the user's neck, which pinches the user's neck from the front and back during use, and does not put pressure on the side parts of the user's neck. It is characterized by:
Furthermore, the neck pillow 8 shown in FIG. 5 is used to sandwich the user's neck from the front and back, and while the existing U-shaped neck pillow allows the user's head 9 to fall forward, The head 9 is supported by the storage section 3, and is characterized by a structure that prevents the head 9 from falling forward.
Moreover, the storage section 3 shown in FIG. 5 allows the user to increase or decrease the volume of each storage section 3 by himself/herself, thereby realizing a suitable usability.
Furthermore, the storage sections 3 shown in FIG. 5 are not specified or limited in terms of the length or volume of each storage section 3.

Next, the neck pillow 8 shown in FIG. 5 has an uncombined part of the first storage part 3A, an uncombined part of the second storage part 3B, and an uncombined part of the third storage part 3C. An example is shown in which the gap portion 5 is configured.
In addition, the neck pillow 8 shown in FIG. 5 is an example in which the user freely operates the gap 5 to expand the gap 5 and insert it from the user's head 9 to surround the neck 10, thereby using it as the neck pillow 8. be.
The neck pillow 8 shown in FIG. 5 is composed of a first storage part 3A, a second storage part 3B, and a third storage part 3C. Since the gap portion 5 expands freely, the neck portion 10 is flexibly held and the head portion 9 is supported.
In addition, the gap portions 5 shown in FIG. 5 expand when the neck pillow 8 is used, so that the gap portions 5 of the three storage portions 3 expand to fit suitably around the user's neck, shoulders, arms, etc. This example shows an example characterized by working as follows.
Further, in the neck pillow 8 shown in FIG. 5, the first storage section 3A is located at the back part of the user's neck 10, and the second storage part 3B is located at the front part of the user's neck 10 and the chin part. , an example is shown in which the third storage part 3C is used so as to be located at the back of the user's head 9, but this is not intended to specify or limit the use, and for example, the third storage part 3C is used to be located at the waist, back, legs, etc. It is characterized by the fact that it can be used in any part desired by the person.

Next, the neck pillow 8 shown in FIG. 5 is formed so that the volume of the first storage part 3A, the volume coupling part 4 of the second storage part 3B, and the volume of the third storage part 3C are approximately the same. An example is shown that is characterized by
Furthermore, although the storage section 3 shown in FIG. 5 is made of an elastic material and is formed to gradually become thicker from both ends toward the center, there is no specificity or limitation to this embodiment. It's not something you do.
Further, although the storage sections 3 shown in FIG. 5 are configured to have substantially the same volume, the user can increase or decrease the volume of air in each storage section 3 by himself/herself. Although this is an example in which the loading/unloading section 6 is employed, it is neither specified nor limited.
