Description

The present invention relates to a pillow, which has a pillow body having an openable upper half and a lower half, and is easy to wash and dry.

Generally, pillows are used by covering the flexible pillow body with a pillow cover as needed, but after use, the pillow cover or pillow is put into a washing machine for washing and dehydration, and then dried in the sun at a clothesline or the like. There is a request to use it cleanly.

In this case, when washing, the entire pillow is put into the washing machine, washed, dehydrated, and dried in the sun in a clothesline, etc., but by washing, even the internal cushioning material and other internal components are dried. I'm worried if I can wash it enough, and it takes time to dry it in the sun, so I'm not satisfied.

In this way, when washing, dehydrating, and drying the pillow, if the whole pillow is washed and dried, not only may the pillow not be sufficiently washed, including the inner materials, but also in a clothesline or the like. There was a problem that it was necessary to devise a place to put it and it took time to dry.

In addition, some pillows, such as Utility Model Registration No. 3117081, have been devised to make it easier to wash the shape of the pillow, which is installed so that the inner material for adjusting the sleeping comfort can be inserted and taken out. In the end, if the inner material is separated from the pillow body, and each is washed, dehydrated, and dried, it is inconvenient for the pillow body and the internal inner material to be placed in the clothesline when drying. There was a problem that it was accompanied and it was troublesome to handle it.

Utility Model Registration No. 3117081

When the pillow is washed, the pillow and its inner material are dried in the clothesline, but this is a problem because it may be difficult to place the pillow body and the inner material in the clothesline.

That is, in the washing and drying of the pillow, when the pillow is put into the washing machine and washed as a whole and dried, not only the inner material inside the pillow body may not be sufficiently washed, but also the clothes drying area. Not only is it time-consuming to dry and it is inconvenient to place each place during drying, but it is also difficult to handle because each of them is separated separately.

It is desired that the entire pillow be washed and dehydrated, and the inside of the pillow can be easily expanded when it is dried, and the pillow can be easily dried on the clothesline.

The present invention has been made to realize such a pillow, in which one side of the upper half and the lower half of the pillow are connected to each other so that they can be opened and closed, and they are closed by a holding body such as a fastener. , The mesh bag body that can be held in the open state, the upper half and the lower half of which are housed in the closed state, and the middle material can be taken in and out of the inside, is the opposite side of the connecting side of the lower half. Connect to the neighborhood.

Then, by opening the holding body, the bag body is expanded and opened together with the upper half and the lower half of the pillow, so that the upper half, the lower half, and the bag of the pillow are opened. By making it possible for the body to expand into a flat state as a whole, the entire pillow in such a state can be dried and dried.

With the above configuration, the entire pillow is put into the washing machine, washed and dehydrated, and then the holding body such as a fastener is opened to open and deploy the upper and lower halves of the pillow. By opening and deploying the bag containing the middle material, the pillow body and the separate middle material can be placed in the clothesline without hesitation in choosing a place to put them. The whole can be developed into a flat state, and the whole pillow can be dried easily and easily as it is or by hanging it on a clothes-drying place using a clothes-drying locking portion.

It is a perspective view which shows one Example of the pillow of this invention. It is sectional drawing of the pillow shown in FIG. It is a perspective view which shows the state which the fastener of the pillow shown in FIG. 1 has started to open. FIG. 5 is a front view showing a state in which the fastener of the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 is completely opened and the upper half and the lower half of the pillow are opened. FIG. 5 is a front view showing a state in which a bag body containing a middle material is further expanded and flattened from the open state of the pillow in FIG. It is a side view of the expanded state of the pillow in FIG. FIG. 5 is a front view showing a state in which the expanded pillow shown in FIG. 5 is hung on a clothesline for drying.

Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

This idea solves the above-mentioned problems and not only makes it easier to wash and dry, but also makes it possible to easily hang and dry the pillow by drying it when it is dried. FIG. 1 shows one implementation of the pillow 1. In a perspective view showing an example, the pillow 1 has a substantially rectangular shape having a long side 1a and a short side 1b, and as shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 2, the upper half 2 and the lower half 3 thereof are formed. It consists of a pillow body.

The upper half 2 and the lower half 3 have, for example, quilted fabric side fabrics 4 and 5 on the outside and nylon side fabrics 6 and 7 on the inside, which are made of a flexible hygroscopic and quick-drying fabric, respectively. A proper amount of polyester cotton or the like is accommodated as the middle materials 8 and 8 having the basic internal functions of the pillow 1 between the sides of the pillow 1 to form the shape of the pillow 1 as a whole.

The upper half 2 and the lower half 3 of the pillow 1 are sewn together on one side and connected to each other, rotated around the first connecting side 9, and developed into a state in which they are overlapped with each other. It is configured to form a flat state. Therefore, the upper half 2 and the lower half 3 of the pillow body can be rotated around the first connecting side 9 to be brought into contact with each other.

Further, a fastener 10 as a holding body is attached to the peripheral edges of the upper half portion 2 and the lower half portion 3 over the entire circumference except for the first connecting side 9, and the fastener (holding body) 10 is opened and closed. The upper half portion 2 and the lower half portion 3 are overlapped with each other to obtain a holding state and a flat open state by unfolding them. That is, the fastener 10 is preferably a head-to-head fastener, and as shown in FIG. 1, its pulls 10a and 10a are adjacent to each other in the closed state, and as shown in FIG. 4 as described later in the open state. , The pull tabs 10a and 10a are located at the ends of the first connecting side 9, respectively.

Further, in a state where the upper half 2 and the lower half 3 of the pillow 1 are overlapped with each other, an appropriate middle material 11 is arranged between them. The middle material 11 is made of a washable cotton material or a flexible material such as high-resilience or low-resilience urethane, and has a shape in which a raised portion 12 is formed on one side to provide breathability and water permeability. It is stored in the bag body 13 of the net material (mesh material) having the net material (mesh material) so that it can be taken in and out through the opening 14.

Then, as clearly shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the bag body 13 has one side in the vicinity of the side opposite to the connecting side 9 of the lower half portion 3 and is sewn inside the fastener 10. A fastener 16 that opens and closes the opening is provided at the end of the opening 14 as well as being connected as the second connecting side 15.

Therefore, as described above, when the head-to-head fastener 10 is opened and the upper half 2 and the lower half 3 of the pillow 1 are opened, the bag body 13 containing the middle material 11 is also opened from the lower three surfaces. It can be unfolded and opened, and can be unfolded flat as a whole.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, at both ends of the side edge (open end side side of the upper half portion 2) opposite to the connecting side 9 of the upper half portion 2, a loop shape is formed inside the fastener 10. The locking portions (locking portions for drying clothes) 17 and 17 are sewn together, and the size of the clothes drying rod R can be inserted into the loops of the locking portions 17 and 17.

In the pillow 1 configured in this way, when in use, as shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, the upper half portion 2 and the lower half portion 3 are superposed together with the bag body 13 containing the middle material 11. It is used with the fastener 10 closed.

According to the preference of the user, the head is placed on the left side of the cross-sectional view of the pillow 1 in FIG. 2, that is, the raised portion 12 side of the middle material 11 is on the neck side.

When the pillow configured in this way is used and then washed, for example, the entire pillow 1 is put into a washing machine, washed, and dehydrated in the used state, that is, with the fastener 10 closed. When the entire pillow 1 is put in a washing net to wash the pillow 1, the pillow 1 is put into a washing machine with the fastener 10 open or closed, washed, and dehydrated.

Then, the fastener 10 of the pillow 1 after dehydration is opened over the entire circumference by operating the pull tabs 10a and 10a, and the overlapping upper half 2 is rotated and unfolded around the first connecting side 9. The bag body 13 that is opened from the lower half portion 3 and further overlaps the lower half portion 3 is unfolded and opened around the second connecting side 15, and the entire pillow is unfolded flat.

To dry this from this state, as shown in FIG. 7, a clothesline R is inserted into the loop-shaped locking portions 17 and 17 provided in the upper half 2 of the pillow 1 and deployed. The pillow 1 in the state can be hung and dried.

In this case, without using the loop-shaped locking portions 17 and 17, the entire flatly deployed pillow is hung on the clothesline R with the second connecting side 15 between the lower half portion 3 and the bag body 13. It is also possible to dry by hanging the first connecting side 9 of the upper half 2 and the lower half 3 of the pillow 1 on the clothesline R.

Then, for the pillow 1 in the unfolded state after sufficient drying, the bag body 13 containing the desired middle material 11 is stacked on the lower half portion 3, and the upper half portion 2 is stacked on the lower half portion 3, and the pull tab of the fastener 10 is stacked. By manipulating 10a and 10a to maintain such a superposed state, the clean pillow 1 can be reassembled and used.

Since this device is configured as described in detail above, after washing and dehydrating, the fastener 10 of the pillow 1 is opened, and the upper half 2 and the lower half 3 of the pillow 1 are accommodated, and further, between them. The bag body 13 of the middle material 11 is also expanded and opened, and the pillow 1 as a whole is expanded and expanded flatly, and the whole is dried as it is or easily using a loop-shaped locking portion for drying clothes. Therefore, it is possible to provide a pillow that is extremely convenient to wash and dry.

In the above-described embodiment, the upper half 2 and the lower half 3 of the pillow 1 are mutually held and opened by the fastener 10 installed on the periphery thereof, but instead of the fastener, a hook-and-loop fastener is used. Holding members such as hooks, buttons and button holes can also be provided.

Further, although the middle materials 8 and 8 of the upper half 2 and the lower half 3 contain cotton materials, micrograin cotton and pipe materials can also be used as the middle materials 8 and 8. ..

Further, although urethane and the like have been described as the middle material 11 housed in the bag body 13, other middle materials can be selectively housed according to the preference of the user. Then, although the bag body 13 is provided with the fastener 16 at the opening 14, the bag body 13 can be raised even if the peripheral edge of the opening 14 of the bag body 13 is folded back and the opening 14 is closed without providing the fastener 16. Since it is sandwiched by the half portion 2 and the lower half portion 3, the middle material 11 does not move carelessly.

Furthermore, instead of the loop-shaped locking part for the clothesline, it is possible to provide a pair of locking strings of a predetermined length so that they can be locked to other equipment in the clothesline. Considering that the entire flat pillow is hung and dried, such a locking portion is not always essential, but it is convenient for drying using the clothesline R.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and can be variously modified at the implementation stage without departing from the gist thereof. In addition, each example may be carried out in combination as appropriate, and in that case, the combined effect can be obtained. Further, the above-described embodiment includes various devices, and various devices can be extracted by a combination selected from a plurality of disclosed constituent requirements. For example, even if some constituent requirements are deleted from all the constituent requirements shown in the examples, if the problem can be solved and the effect is obtained, the configuration in which the constituent requirements are deleted can be extracted as a device.
