Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a cushion for wearing a neck, and more particularly, to a cushion for wearing a neck, which maintains a neck portion including a cervical spine, a spine, and a prosthesis in a comfortable state while driving a car.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Neck-mounted cushions that have been inflated into a crescent-shaped U-shape to be worn on the neck have been put to practical use. According to such a conventional cushion for wearing a neck, the neck and the head are supported by being worn like a collar in an inflated state.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 For this reason, there is a problem that a neck pain and a headache are inevitable due to a sense of tension particularly in a sitting position. Also, conventional neck-mounted cushions have significant disadvantages in comfort and support function. The crescent-shaped concave portion of the neck-mounted cushion of the inflatable type as described above is inflated into a predetermined shape possessed by the cushion itself after being completely inflated. For this reason, it is impossible to match the crescent-shaped recess with the shape that varies depending on the individual to be worn next. Further, according to the conventional cushion for wearing on a neck, a rubber material, preferably vinyl chloride, is used in the crescent-shaped concave portion, and a velor is laid to improve the touch on the skin. Despite these improvements, if the crescent-shaped recess is used for a long period of time, there is a problem that heat accumulates in the neck support and induces sweat. For this reason, there is a problem that comfort is considerably impaired by the conventional recess. Lastly, the crescent-shaped concave portion of the conventional inflatable neck-wearing cushion cannot absorb shocks and vibrations when used in an automobile, for example, and can only moderate the vibrations. Transmitted to the neck and head.

[0004] Therefore, the neck-wearing cushion of the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and a purpose thereof is to provide a higher functionality in a neck-wearing cushion of a kind worn around the neck. And to obtain improved comfort.

[0005]

It is characterized in that it is provided so as to be separated from the user, and an auxiliary cushion is attached to an arbitrary position so as to be separated from the user.

The hook-and-loop fastener (4) forms the loop for guiding the adjusting ribbon (2) or the cord body along the outer peripheral surface of the neck-mounted cushion (1). At the same time, a groove for guiding the adjusting ribbon (2) or the cord body is constituted.

[0013]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 shows a case in which a hook-and-loop fastener is provided on a neck-mounted cushion. The auxiliary cushion can be freely attached to an arbitrary relative position with respect to the main body.

According to FIG. 1, the neck-wearing cushion (1) is substantially filled with granules, not described in detail, of conventional granules in a "U" shaped long sock. It is formed by blocking. Preferably, these granules are composed of static-resistant and odorless polystyrene beads. Cotton can also be used as a suitable filling material for this neck-wearing cushion, which has the property of absorbing moisture and allowing the passage of moisture, so that it is comfortable for the user and also allows washing. .

As shown in the figure, a hook-and-loop fastener (4, Velcro strip) is provided on an outer peripheral edge portion away from the inner contour of the above-mentioned “U” character shape, and this hook-and-loop fastener (4) is attached to the neck. The mounting cushion (1) extends along substantially the entire circumference. The hook-and-loop fastener (4) is sewn to the neck-mounted cushion so that the groove is formed along the longitudinal direction. In this manner, the adjusting cord (2) is drawn into the groove so that both ends of the adjusting cord are exposed to the outside from both openings of the groove.

A fastening button (3) for a fastener fixed at an arbitrary position is provided at a position where the adjusting cord (2) is exposed to the outside, and a groove portion of the surface fastener (4) is provided. The length of the adjustment cord in the groove can be adjusted by manually adjusting the tightening button so that it stays in the opening of the adjustment cord.

Further, an auxiliary cushion (5) is provided, which is an additional cushion substantially rectangular in shape and filled with the same filling material as described above, and is provided with the above-mentioned hook-and-loop fastener (5). 4) can be connected. The auxiliary cushion (5) forms a contour at its longitudinal edge (6) that matches the contour of the neck-mounted cushion (1), and engages with the surface fastener at the contour. Hook and loop fasteners are provided. As a result, the auxiliary cushion can be attached to an arbitrary position with respect to the hook-and-loop fastener provided along the contour of the outer periphery of the neck-mounted cushion (1).

A use state of the neck-mounted cushion configured as described above will be described below.

After the cushion for wearing the neck is worn along the circumference of the neck of the user, the adjusting cord or the tightening button is adjusted to change the contour of the crescent-shaped concave portion, thereby changing the shape of the user. Match the contour of the neck. At the time of such adjustment, since the concave portion is deformed by the filled polystyrene beads so as to follow the contour of the user, scratches and the like can be prevented. In addition, the laying of cotton makes it extremely comfortable and sweat-free.

If a user sitting in a passenger car wants to rest with his head leaning on the side wall, the above-mentioned auxiliary cushion is put in an appropriate position using a hook-and-loop fastener. It can be used to engage and attach to lean. In addition, this auxiliary cushion is also filled with polystyrene beads, so it can conform to the shape of the head and can also be deformed to conform to the shape of the irregular side wall of a car. Therefore, the head can be held flexibly and without pressure.

It goes without saying that the neck-wearing cushion including the auxiliary cushion of the present invention can be used not only for supporting the user's neck but also for supporting the arms and legs.
