Description

The present invention relates to a pillow that allows the user to adjust the height and firmness of the pillow, respectively.

Pillows are very important bedding to provide better quality sleep. A bag provided in the cover of the pillow is filled with buckwheat hulls, urethane or the like to maintain a predetermined height and hardness. Such pillows cannot be changed in height and hardness in the middle, which causes insomnia and the like, and prevents users from getting a good quality sleep. Specifically, if the height of the pillow is too high, blood vessels and nerves in the neck and shoulders will be compressed during sleep, causing headaches and stiff shoulders. On the other hand, if the height is too low, the neck will stretch and the chin will rise, allowing blood to flow to the head and increase stimulation to the head, which can lead to swelling. Furthermore, if the pillow is hard, it stimulates the brain, making it easier to wake up. important to do.

For example, in Patent Document 1, an airbag is included in order to adjust the height of the neck, and by manually injecting air into the airbag, the height of the pillow can be changed. .

Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing a state in which an inner cover member is removed from an outer cover member of the pillow shown in Fig. 1; Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing a state in which the contents of the inner cover of the pillow shown in Fig. 1 are transparent; 2 is a perspective view showing a state in which the height of the pillow shown in FIG. 1 is changed; FIG.

A pillow 1 according to this embodiment will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. FIG. For the sake of convenience, parts having the same functions are denoted by the same reference numerals, and descriptions thereof are omitted.

The pillow 1 is used as bedding. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the pillow 1 includes an outer cover material 2, an inner cover material 3 accommodated inside the outer cover material 2, and a filling material 4 in the inner cover material 3. By filling a predetermined amount, it is formed into a shape suitable for bedding.

The outer cover material 2 and the inner cover material 3 are formed in a bag shape. The size of the pillow 1 is 35 cm to 60 cm×50 cm to 70 cm, preferably 45 cm to 50 cm×60 cm to 70 cm.

The outer cover material 2 and the inner cover material 3 are made of fabric having excellent breathability, quick drying properties, resilience and stretchability. For example, it is made of natural fibers such as cotton, linen, and silk, chemical fibers such as polyester, nylon, acrylic, and polyurethane, and regenerated fibers such as acetate, cupra, and rayon. Further, for example, a coarse fabric, a fabric having a mesh structure, a fabric provided with a mesh layer on at least one of the front and back surfaces, and the like may be used.

The outer cover member 2 has an opening 2a at the end of the outer cover member 2 for storing or taking out the inner cover member 3 stored inside the outer cover member 2. As shown in FIG. The opening 2a may be a fastener, or may be sewn with a button, Velcro (registered trademark), or the like instead of a fastener. Similarly, the inner cover material 3 has an opening 3a at the end of the inner cover material 3 for storing or taking out the contents 4 filled inside the inner cover material 3. As shown in FIG. As with the opening 2a of the outer cover material 2, this opening 3a may be a fastener, or may be sewn with a button, Velcro (registered trademark), or the like, without being limited to a fastener. Furthermore, the outer cover material 2 is not limited to the fastener, as long as it can accommodate the inner cover material 3 and the contents 4, and the inner cover material 3 only needs to accommodate the contents 4, and the contents 4 are filled in the inner cover material 3. After that, the opening 2a and the opening 3a may be closed by sewing and stitched together. Furthermore, for example, the outer cover material 2 and the inner cover material 3 have an opening with a width smaller than the short sides of the outer cover material 2 and the inner cover material 3, and the contents 4 filled in the inner cover material 3 A cylindrical cloth material may be provided around the inner openings of the outer cover member 2 and the inner cover member 3 as a return member or drop-off prevention member for preventing the spillage of the liquid to the outside.

The outer cover material 2 and the inner cover material 3 are appropriately set depending on the performance required for the pillow 1 and the like. For example, when the outer cover material 2 and the inner cover material 3 can be washed separately, the contents 4 filled in the inner cover material 3 are taken out and the outer cover material 2 and the inner cover material 3 are washed. The outer cover member 2 and the inner cover member 3 may be provided with fasteners, return members, drop-off prevention members, and the like.

As shown in FIG. 3, the content 4 filled in the inner cover material 3 will be described. The content 4 is made of flexible urethane foam having a high open cell ratio and air permeability. The flexible urethane foam with a high open cell ratio does not include those with cell membranes remaining in some of the pores and an open cell ratio of 100%.

The shape of the content 4 may be square, rectangular, triangular, circular, or any other shape, and is not uniquely defined. As for the size of the content 4, the length L of the content 4 in the longitudinal direction is set to 50 mm to 200 mm, preferably 50 mm to 100 mm.

The content 4 is not limited to soft urethane foam, but may be cotton, feathers, pipe material, polypropylene, wood chips, or buckwheat hulls. The hardness of the pillow 1 can be changed depending on which material is used.

Contents 4 are filled into the inner cover material 3 through the opening 3a in a predetermined amount. For example, the contents 4 are filled into the inner cover material 11 so that the filling rate of the inner cover material 3 is about 70% to 90%. The filling rate of the contents 4 in the inner cover material 3 can be appropriately adjusted as long as the pillow 1 functions well as bedding. Moreover, the filling rate in the inner cover material 3 may exceed 100%.

Since the content 4 is made of soft urethane foam, it has a high coefficient of friction. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the shape of the pillow 1 from collapsing due to the external pressure associated with an operation such as putting the head on the contents 4 filled in the inner cover material 3 . Therefore, good comfort can be provided. Furthermore, when the pillow 1 is crushed by external pressure, the contents 4 are deformed, and the force is transmitted to the adjacent contents 4. Therefore, the load is distributed to areas other than the area where the load is applied, Local deformation of the pillow 1 is suppressed, and good sleep comfort can be provided.

A method for adjusting the height of the pillow 1 will be described. The opening 3a is provided for adjusting the amount of the content 4 to be filled in the inner cover material 3, and the content 4 can be stored or taken out by opening the opening 3a. . By adjusting the amount of the content 4, the height of the pillow 1 can be adjusted. FIG. 4 shows the height of the pillow 1 shown in FIG.

A method of adjusting the hardness of the pillow 1 will be described. As described in the method of adjusting the height, it can be realized by adjusting the amount of the contents 3 filled in the inner cover material 3, but it is also possible to change the material of the contents 3. For example, the use of wooden chips provides a pillow 1 with a high hardness, and the use of feathers provides a pillow 1 with a soft hardness.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications are possible without departing from the gist and technical idea of the invention.

Although the pillow 1 described above has been described as an example, it may be used not only as a pillow but also as a cushion, a floor cushion, or the like.

In addition, in the above description, descriptions such as "the same", "equal", and "different" regarding external dimensions and sizes are not strictly defined. That is, the terms "same", "equal", and "different" mean "substantially the same", "substantially equal", and "substantially different", with allowance for design and manufacturing tolerances and errors. .

In addition to the above, the methods according to the above embodiments and modifications may be used in combination as appropriate. Although not exemplified one by one, the present invention can be implemented with various modifications within the scope of the invention.
