Description

  The present invention relates to a pillow, and more particularly to a structure of a pressure dispersion pillow that is ergonomically preferable, in which a head is positioned and a preferable support effect is obtained according to the body shape.

  About a third of life is sleep time, and as many researchers have pointed out, sleep quality affects health. For example, sleep is most important for recovery of physical fitness, and sufficient sleep for adolescent growth is very important, and the cerebrum directs each part of the body to recover and restore normal function during sleep And memorize and organize information and knowledge learned in the daytime. In short, sleep is closely related to our lives and health, and good sleep is essential to stay healthy.

There are so many factors that affect the quality of sleep, and the quality of the pillow is one of the important factors. There is a saying that “sleep without raising the pillow,” but in fact, when people sleep, using a high pillow is not very good for the body.
When the body is maintained in a natural posture, the spine is straight when viewed from the front, but when viewed from the side, the seven cervical vertebrae of the cervix are slightly bent and present an arc shape protruding forward. Therefore, if the height of the pillow when sleeping does not exactly match the bent arc degree, the shape of the spine cannot be kept in a natural state.
Therefore, if the pillow is too high or too low, it is difficult to keep the spine in a favorable arc degree in a natural posture, and many people become stiff or painful when sleeping overnight, or so-called sleeping This is because the quality of the pillow and its function are unfavorable.

Experts point out that the optimal height of the pillow when lying on its back is 5-8 cm. Also, most people do not always maintain the same posture during sleep, and it is common to alternate between a supine posture and a horizontal posture.
Also, each person's body shape and shoulder width are different, the preferred pillow height is different for men and women, and the preferred pillow height is different for adults and children, so when choosing a pillow, the height is 8-10 cm It is preferable.
Further, when using the pillow, it is preferable that the pressure is dispersed sufficiently to prevent the spine or the back from floating, and the lower edge of the pillow and the position of the shoulder are close to each other.

The shape of each part of the conventional pillow is flat and symmetric, the pillow surface that supports the head (for example, the back of the head) is flat, and most of the conventional pillows are unfavorable in terms of ergonomics.
Pillows that are not properly designed in consideration of the curve of each part of the human body and have a height suitable for lying on the back are too low when taking a sideways posture, and on the other hand, pillows with high pillow faces Although it may be suitable for a sideways posture, the back of the head may be too high when taking a supine posture.
The shape memory pillow made of shape memory foam is flat at the center of the surface, the edge is bent and raised, and is slightly higher than the center, so the raised edge supports the back of the neck However, such a structure can only be applied when lying on its back, and when placed in a sideways position, the raised edge will be higher than the flat pillow surface in the middle position, and conversely the side of the head ( In particular, the ears may be tilted downward and the posture may not be ideal.

  In view of the problems of conventional pillows, the object of the present invention is to position the head as needed for health and comfort, position the head and spine to appropriate positions to prevent lying and distribute pressure evenly It is an object of the present invention to provide a pressure dispersion pillow that is ergonomically favorable and can provide comfortable and good sleep quality.

In practice, as shown in FIG. 3, the pillow body 30 in FIG. 2 may be formed with a cavity 31 penetrating the pillow body 30 by a processing technique (for example, a cutting method). The cavity 31 is formed in the pillow body 30 along the direction in which the head applies pressure to the pillow body 30. The cavity 31 is covered with the vibration absorption / pressure dispersion pad 20, and the vibration absorption / pressure dispersion pad 20 is covered with the pillow surface 10.
FIG. 4 shows an ergonomically preferable pressure dispersion pillow according to an embodiment of the present invention. An auxiliary pad 50 is arranged on the bottom of the pillow body 30, and the auxiliary pad 50 allows the ergonomics of this embodiment to be used. The preferred height of the pressure dispersion pillow is increased. The auxiliary pad 50 is a sheet-like member made of a flexible buffer material, and may be bonded to the bottom surface of the pillow body 30 by connection means including an adhesive.

(Second Embodiment)
Please refer to FIG. As shown in FIG. 5, an ergonomically preferable pressure dispersion pillow according to the second embodiment of the present invention includes at least a vibration absorption / pressure dispersion pad 20, a pillow body 30, and a coating layer 40.

  The vibration absorption / pressure dispersion pad 20 is a sheet-like member made of a vibration absorption / pressure dispersion material, and may be made of a vibration absorption / pressure dispersion material made of gel or silicon.

  The pillow body 30 is made of a flexible buffer material, and is provided with at least one cavity 31. The cavity 31 is formed at a location where the weight of the head is applied to support the back of the head. The cavity 31 is covered with a vibration absorption / pressure dispersion pad 20.

  The covering layer 40 covers the outer surfaces of the pillow body 30 and the vibration absorption / pressure distribution pad 20.

  Since the coating layer 40 and the vibration absorption / pressure distribution pad 20 of the present embodiment are provided with a large number of ventilation holes, the pressure distribution pillow that is preferable from the viewpoint of ergonomics has a high ventilation function.

(Third embodiment)
Please refer to FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, an ergonomically preferable pressure dispersion pillow according to the third embodiment of the present invention includes at least a pillow surface 10, a vibration absorption / pressure dispersion pad 20, and a pillow body 30.

  The pillow surface 10 is a sheet-like member made of a vibration absorbing / pressure dispersing material.
