However, in the pillow described in Patent Document 1, since the height is adjusted by accommodating a flat adjustment pad on the lower fabric side, the height of the entire pillow can be adjusted, but the height of the bulging portion and the like can be adjusted. Cannot be adjusted individually. Therefore, it is not possible to obtain a pillow having an optimum height and shape according to an individual's body shape such as neck length and sleeping posture. Further, if a padding such as cotton is put in and out of a part of the pillow bag, the cotton may flow out of the pillow bag during use and the area around the futon may be covered with cotton dust.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and the user can adjust the height and shape to the optimum height and shape suitable for his / her body shape and sleeping posture, and the cotton-like filling is placed outside the pillow bag. The purpose is to provide pillows that are difficult to leak.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention has a cotton-like padding that is packed in a pillow bag formed between an upper fabric, a lower fabric that is arranged to face the upper fabric, and the upper fabric and the lower fabric. The pillow bag is provided with a recess formed by sewing the upper fabric and the lower fabric in a circular shape at substantially the center of the pillow bag, and the padding provided on one side of the pillow bag. The upper fabric has an opening that allows it to be taken in and out, and the upper fabric has a covering portion that extends from one side of the upper fabric and is folded back to the front side of the upper fabric. When folded back to the lower fabric side, the opening is covered by the covering portion.

The pillow preferably has a long side length of 62 ± 15 cm, a short side length of 42 ± 10 cm, and a diameter of the recess 10 ± 2 cm.

It is preferable that the pillow further includes a valve cloth attached to the opening, and the valve cloth is pushed into the opening to close the opening.

In the pillow, it is preferable that the lower fabric has a double covering portion that extends from one side of the pillow and is folded back on the front side of the lower fabric.

According to the present invention, the user can adjust the pillow to the optimum height and shape adapted to his / her body shape and sleeping posture by inserting and removing the padding from the opening. Further, when the covering part is folded back from the lower fabric side to the upper fabric side, the opening is exposed, so that the filling can be easily taken in and out. When the covering portion is folded back from the upper fabric side to the lower fabric side, the opening is opened. Since it is covered with, the outflow of filling can be suppressed.

The pillow according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the pillow 1 of the present embodiment is formed between the upper cloth 2, the lower cloth 3 arranged to face the upper cloth 2, and the upper cloth 2 and the lower cloth 3. A cotton-like padding 4 to be packed in the pillow bag 10 to be packed is provided. In the following description, the lower left corner of the perspective view is referred to as the front, and the upper right corner is referred to as the rear.

The upper fabric 2 and the lower fabric 3 are general-purpose fabrics made of cotton (men), polyester, rayon, etc., and may be pile-based fabrics, gauze-based fabrics, or satin-based fabrics, but the fibers are fine and stretchable. A satin-based 100% polyester fabric having a small property and preventing cotton from flowing out is preferable. The filling 4 is a general-purpose cotton made of cotton, polyester, or the like, and polyester cotton having predetermined elasticity, antifungal and anti-mite properties, suitable for washing, and excellent in hygiene is preferable.

The pillow bag 10 is made by sewing at least three sides of the rectangular upper fabric 2 and lower fabric 3 together in a plan view, and the length of the long side is 62 when the padding 4 is not inserted. It is preferably ± 15 cm, has a short side length of 42 ± 10 cm, and is preferably 62 cm × 42 cm, which can be accommodated in the most common pillowcase.

Further, the pillow bag 10 has a recess 5 in which the upper fabric 2 and the lower fabric 3 are sewn together in a circular shape at substantially the center, and an opening 11 provided on one side of the pillow bag 10 so that the padding 4 can be taken in and out. And (see FIGS. 1 (c) to 1 (f)). Further, the pillow 1 has a covering portion 21 extending from one side of the upper cloth 2. The covering portion 21 is arranged on the lower fabric 3 side as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B during normal use. Further, when the filling portion 4 is taken in and out, the covering portion 21 is folded back from the lower fabric 3 side to the upper fabric 2 side as shown in FIGS. 1 (c) to 1 (f), and in this state, the opening 11 is opened. Is exposed to the outside.

Further, the pillow 1 of the present embodiment further includes a valve cloth 6 to which the opening 11 is attached. The valve cloth 6 is sewn to the back side of the upper cloth 2 forming the opening 11, and is housed in the opening 11 and the padding 4 is stored in the opening 11 during normal use, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B. It acts as a valve so that it does not flow out of the opening 11. Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 (e) and 1 (f), the valve cloth 6 can be pulled out from the opening 11, whereby the padding 4 can be taken in and out of the pillow bag 10 through the opening 11. Become.

Next, the procedure for producing the pillow 1 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 7. As shown in FIG. 2A, first, as the upper cloth 2, a rectangular cloth having a long side of 93 cm and a short side of 44 cm is prepared. Here, the back surface side of the upper fabric 2 is arranged on the top. Then, one short side is folded back to the back surface side twice by 1 cm, and as shown in FIG. 2B, the short side is sewn and the end treatment is performed. Further, as shown in FIG. 2 (c), 28 cm is further folded back toward the surface side from the short side where the end treatment has been performed. This folded fabric becomes the covering portion 21. The alternate long and short dash line in the figure indicates the side of the folded fabric, and means that the folded fabric is present on the back side of the illustrated fabric. In the actual procedure, after the end treatment shown in FIG. 2B, the surface may be placed on the top and then folded back to hold the folded position with a pin or the like.

Next, as shown in FIG. 3A, a square dough of 24 cm each is prepared as the valve dough 6. Here, the back surface side is arranged on the upper side, the four sides are folded back by 2 cm each, and as shown in FIG. 3 (b), the four sides are sewn to perform end treatment. Then, as shown in FIG. 3C, the valve dough 6 which has undergone end treatment is arranged on the back side of the upper dough 2 with the front side facing up so that there is a gap of 12 cm in the front and back. The valve cloth 6 is sutured to the upper cloth 2.

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 4A, a rectangular cloth having a long side of 65 cm and a short side of 44 cm is prepared as the lower cloth 3. Here, one short side is folded back to the back surface side twice by 1 cm, and as shown in FIG. 4 (b), the short side is sewn and end treatment is performed. In the actual procedure, the back surface may be placed on the top, folded back, and sutured.

Then, as shown in FIG. 5A, the upper dough 2 is placed on the lower dough 3 treated as described above. Here, the two fabrics are overlapped so that the surface of the lower fabric 3 and the surface of the upper fabric 2 face each other. Subsequently, they are sutured as shown in FIG. 5 (b). First, the short side to which the valve cloth 6 is attached is sutured. Here, at a position 0.5 cm from the short side, 13 cm of each front and back is sewn. Further, the short side without the valve cloth 6 and the two long sides on the front and back are sewn over the entire side at a position of 1 cm each. As a result, the pillow bag 10 is formed between the upper fabric 2 and the lower fabric 3, and as shown in FIG. 5 (c), the short side with the valve fabric 6 is not sewn by about 18 cm. A portion is created, and this is the opening 11. Then, through the opening 11, the pillow bag 10 is turned upside down so that the back and front sides are reversed. As a result, the size is reduced by the amount of the seam allowance, and as shown in FIG. 5D, the pillow bag 10 having a width of 62 cm (maximum length of the opening position) and a length of 42 cm is completed.

Finally, as shown in FIG. 6, in the substantially center of the pillow bag 10, the upper fabric 2 and the lower fabric 3 are sewn together in a circular shape to form a recess 5. The recess 5 is preferably formed so that the circular portion has a diameter of 10 ± 2 cm. As described above, the pillow bag 10 of the present embodiment is completed.

Subsequently, the filling 4 (polyester cotton) is put into the pillow bag 10 produced as described above. When the filling 4 is taken in and out, as shown in FIGS. 7A and 7B, the covering portion 21 is on the upper cloth 2 side, and the valve cloth 6 is taken out from the opening 11. When the padding 4 is inserted, the left and right portions of the recess 5 ((1) and (2) in FIG. 7 (a)) are located before and after the recess 5 ((3) and (4) in FIG. 7 (a)). It is preferable to put a larger amount of filling 4 than the portion of. By raising the points (1) and (2), when the user rolls over and falls asleep sideways, the position of the head is raised and the shoulders are not burdened with a natural shape. In addition, by lowering the points (3) and (4), even when the user lies on his back, his neck does not bend and he can take a comfortable posture. However, it is desirable that the pillow 1 be conscious of lying on its back and fall asleep, and if there is a feeling of strangeness when waking up, the padding 4 may be added or removed, and the heights of the points (3) and (4) may be adjusted appropriately. It may be adjusted, for example, the portion (3) may be lowered and the portion (4) may be raised. Since the upper fabric 2 and the lower fabric 3 are sewn together in the recess 5, the padding 4 does not enter the recess 5.

As described above, according to the pillow 1, the user can adjust the pillow 1 to the optimum height and shape adapted to his / her body shape and sleeping posture by inserting and removing the padding 4 from the opening 11. As a result, it is possible to realize a pillow that is substantially equivalent to a custom-made pillow, and the user can expect to improve stiff shoulders, headaches, etc. due to adverse effects such as posture during sleep.

Further, when the filling 4 is taken in and out, when the covering portion 21 is folded back from the lower cloth 3 side to the upper cloth 2 side, the opening 11 is exposed. Therefore, the valve cloth 6 is further taken out and the filling 4 is easily put in and taken out. (See FIGS. 1 (c) and 1 (e)). Further, at the time of use, when the covering portion 21 is folded back from the upper fabric 2 side to the lower fabric 3 side, the opening 11 is covered, so that the filling 4 can be prevented from flowing out (FIG. 1 (b)). reference).

Further, when the pillow 1 is used (at bedtime, etc.), the covering portion 21 is arranged on the lower fabric 3 side, so that the user does not feel a step due to the overlapping of the fabrics, and the appearance is similar to that of a general pillow. It will be almost the same. In FIGS. 1 (b), (d), and (f), for convenience of explanation, a gap is provided between the covering portion 21 and the valve cloth 6 and the upper cloth 2 and the lower cloth 3, but the padding is actually used. The pillow bag 10 packed with 4 is inflated, and the covering portion 21 and the valve cloth 6 are in close contact with the upper cloth 2 and the lower cloth 3 with almost no gaps, and the filling 4 hardly flows out. Absent. Further, since the covering portion 21 and the valve cloth 6 are used instead of the chuck and the hook-and-loop fastener as the configuration for closing the opening 11, the cotton fibers may be entangled with the chuck and the hook-and-loop fastener when the filling 4 is taken in and out. Absent. Further, since the covering portion 21 has a size that double covers about 40% of the lower fabric 3, the covering portion 21 is difficult to be pulled toward the opening 11, and the opening 11 is also difficult to open.

Further, in the pillow 1 of the present embodiment, since the opening 11 can be closed from the inside with the valve cloth 6, the outflow of the filling 4 can be suppressed more effectively. Moreover, since the valve cloth 6 is provided, even if the opening 11 is enlarged, the padding 4 is less likely to flow out. In the pillow 1 of the present embodiment, since the width of the opening 11 is 18 cm, even a man with a large hand can insert his hand into the opening 11 without any problem.

Next, the pillow according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 8A, the appearance of the pillow 1 of the present embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment, and the same is true in that the upper fabric 2, the lower fabric 3, the padding 4, and the recess 5 are provided. is there. Further, it is the same as the first embodiment in that it has an opening 11 provided on one side of the pillow bag 10 and a covering portion 21 extending from one side of the upper fabric 2. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 8 (b) to 8 (f), the valve cloth 6 of the first embodiment is not provided, and the double covering portion 31 extending from one side of the lower cloth 3 is provided. In that respect, it differs from the first embodiment.

The procedure for producing the pillow 1 of the present embodiment will be described below with reference to FIGS. 9 to 11. The procedure for producing the upper dough 2 is the same as that in the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 9A, first, as the upper cloth 2, a rectangular cloth having a long side of 93 cm and a short side of 44 cm is prepared. Here, the back surface side of the upper fabric 2 is arranged on the upper side, one short side is folded back to the back surface side twice by 1 cm, the short side is sewn, and the end portion is processed. Then, as shown in FIG. 9B, 28 cm is further folded back toward the surface side from the short side where the end treatment has been performed.

Next, as shown in FIG. 10A, a rectangular cloth having a long side of 77 cm and a short side of 44 cm is prepared as the lower cloth 3. Here, the front side of the lower fabric 3 is arranged on the upper side, one short side is folded back to the back side twice by 1 cm, and then the short side is sewn, and then the end is sewn as shown in FIG. 10 (b). Fold back 12 cm from the short side where the partial treatment was performed to the surface side. This folded fabric becomes the double covering portion 21,

Then, as shown in FIG. 11A, the upper dough 2 is placed on the lower dough 3 treated as described above. As shown in FIG. 11B, these are sewn together. The procedure for suturing is the same as that of the first embodiment, and as shown in FIG. 11 (c), an unsewn portion of about 18 cm is provided on one short side, and this is used as an opening 11. .. Then, through the opening 11, the back and front sides of the pillow bag 10 are turned upside down, and further, as shown in FIG. 11 (d), the upper cloth 2 and the lower cloth 3 are formed at substantially the center of the pillow bag 10. Are sewn together in a circular shape to form a recess 5. As described above, the pillow bag 10 of the present embodiment is completed.

Subsequently, the filling 4 (polyester cotton) is put into the pillow bag 10 produced as described above. Since the opening 11 of the completed pillow bag 10 is exposed (see FIGS. 11 (d) and 8 (e) (f)), the padding 4 can be put into the pillow bag 10 through the opening 11. When closing the opening 11, first, as shown in FIGS. 8C and 8D, the double covering portion 31 is folded back from the lower fabric 3 side to the upper fabric 2 side. Finally, as shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, both the covering portion 21 and the double covering portion 31 are folded back from the upper fabric 2 side to the lower fabric 3 side. As a result, the opening 11 is closed by the double cloth of the covering portion 21 and the double covering portion 31. In FIGS. 8 (b), (d), and (f), for convenience of explanation, a gap is provided between the covering portion 21 or the double covering portion 31 and the upper fabric 2 or the lower fabric 3, but it is actually In addition, they are in close contact with each other with almost no gap, and the opening 11 is also closed by overlapping the covering portion 21 and the double covering portion 31, so that the filling 4 hardly flows out.

The present invention has a recess 5 formed by being sewn in a circular shape in the substantially center of the upper fabric 2 and the lower fabric 3, and an opening provided on one side of the pillow bag 10, and the upper fabric 3 has an opening. As long as it has a structure having a covering portion 21 having one side extended and folded back, various modifications are possible, not limited to the above embodiment. For example, in the first embodiment described above, the valve dough 6 is attached to the opening of the upper dough 2, but the valve dough 6 may be attached to the lower dough 3. Further, the second embodiment has a configuration in which the valve cloth 6 is not provided and the double covering portion 31 is provided, but a valve cloth 6 may be further provided to form a triple cover structure. Further, in the above embodiment, since the upper fabric 2 and the lower fabric 3 are sewn in a circular shape in the concave portion 5, the padding 4 does not enter, but a portion of the circular shape that is not sewn is provided, and a small amount is also provided in the concave portion 5. It may be possible to put the filling 4 of the above.
