Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a pillow used at bedtime.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 In the past, the mainstream pillows consisted of bag-shaped woven cloth filled with natural materials such as buckwheat husks, feathers, and cotton, and wicker-woven knitted boxes.

The function of the pillow is to support the head at bedtime, but at the same time, it is necessary to relieve the tension of the muscles of the neck supporting the head at the time of activity so as to rest and cool the head. .

[0004] In recent years, interest in health has increased, and with the progress of industrial technology, synthetic resins having various characteristics and shapes can be manufactured at low cost. Therefore, pillows having an unprecedented structure will be manufactured and sold. Has become. For example, pillows that use bead-shaped or macaroni-shaped synthetic resin grains as fillings, and pillows that are woven into a substantially cubic shape with synthetic resin instead of conventional rattan are commercially available.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 It is said that many modern people have various stresses due to lack of exercise, human relations in the workplace, spread of OA equipment, etc. If such stress is mild, it can be resolved by taking sufficient sleep, but excessive stress is not completely resolved and accumulates, and often manifests itself as physical symptoms such as headache and insomnia. Therefore, there is a need for bedding that not only fully rejuvenates the mind and body even in a short time, but also actively promotes stress relief.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The pillow of the present invention has been devised in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its structural feature is that it has a cylindrical shape with one end fixed on the substrate and the stopper portion protruding inward at the opening at the other end. Inside the member, a head contact member having a fringe portion capable of head contact with the stopper portion is arranged, and a plurality of head contact members obtained by pushing the head contact member toward the opening of the tubular member by a spring are provided on the substrate. It is to be arranged.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.

The pillow of the present invention comprises a substrate and a plurality of head contact members fixed on the substrate, and the head contact member further comprises a head contact member, a tubular member, and a spring.

In the present invention, the head contact member is a portion which the head directly contacts when sleeping, and the shape thereof is not particularly limited, but is preferably spherical or hemispherical. The size depends on the shape, but the diameter of the cross section is preferably 1 to 5 cm, and the height of the portion protruding from the tubular member is about 1 to 3 cm. Examples of the material of the head contact member include wood, hard rubber, hard foam of resin, and non-foam. A fringe portion is provided below the head contact member.

The head contact member is housed in a tubular member. The tubular member preferably has an inner diameter of 1. It has a cylindrical shape with a height of 5 to 5.5 cm and a height of 2 to 6 cm, and is provided with a stopper part projecting inward at the opening. The material is not particularly limited, but it is desirable that the material has sufficient strength and is light in weight, and examples thereof include molded articles made of wood or plastic. A spring is arranged between the head-contacting member and the substrate in the tubular member, and the head-contacting member is pushed up toward the opening of the tubular member, and the stopper portion provided on the tubular member causes the head-contacting member to move. The fringe portion is in contact with the head contact member, and a state in which a part of the head contact member is projected from the tubular member is held.

The pillow of the present invention comprises a plurality of head contact bodies arranged as described above, preferably 10-15 in the horizontal direction, that is, 5-8 in the longitudinal direction and fixed on the substrate. Is. The head contact bodies are arranged side by side, preferably 0.5 to 1 cm apart. The board may be made of the same material as the tubular member of the head contact body, and the head contact body may be fixed to the board by fusion of adhesives or resins, or by using screws or the like. It is not necessary to make the size and height of all head contact bodies fixed to one substrate uniform, for example, using a head contact body that is gradually lowered toward the longitudinal center row, and is used as a whole ship bottom type (cylindrical type). Part of the shape) is also one of the preferable embodiments.

[0012]

[Action]

 The pillow of the present invention applies acupressure stimulation to the head by supporting the head with the head contact member supported by the spring. Further, since there is a gap between the head contact bodies, the heat of the head is directly contacted or air-cooled through the head contact bodies, so that the heat dissipation is high.

[0013]

【Example】

 The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention. A longitudinal sectional view of the head contact body in this example is shown in FIG. 1 and 2, 1 is a substrate, 2 is a head contact member, 3 is a tubular member, 4 is a spring, 5 is a fringe portion provided on the head contact member 2, and 6 is an opening of the tubular member 3. It is the stopper part that overhangs. In this embodiment, the head contact member 2 has a substantially hemispherical shape, and grooves are cut in the bottom portion and the base plate and both ends of the spring 4 are fitted and fixed.

In the present embodiment, the head contact bodies are arranged parallel to each other in the vertical and horizontal directions. However, in the present invention, for example, the head contact bodies are arranged in a staggered manner by shifting by half each row, or the distance between the head contact bodies is changed. It doesn't matter. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, it is preferable to lower the head contact body in the central row because the head becomes stable. Further, this may be applied vertically and horizontally to lower the central portion. That is, the height, size, interval, and arrangement of the head contact bodies can be freely selected within the range in which the effects of the present invention can be obtained.

[0016]

Effect of the Invention Since the pillow of the present invention supports the head with a plurality of head contact bodies, the head is moderately stimulated to bring about an acupressure effect. It also has better heat dissipation than conventional pillows, and has a high head cooling effect. Therefore, it is possible to give a moderate stimulus and sufficient rest to the head to promote good sleep, and to eliminate stress during activity at bedtime.
