[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a pillow with a massage.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 A massager that can be used as a pillow is that of Japanese Utility Model No. 51-2463, which is a cylindrical vibrator that can be rotated by an eccentric shaft, and its head moves directly up and down, which makes it a big movement. There is a problem passing by. On the other hand, in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 53-21914, a structure in which a pair of left and right protrusions provided on the pillow body that can be separated from each other is used for acupressure to obtain a massage effect on the nape of the neck. However, these are only intended to promote blood circulation and not more.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and its object is to massage the neck muscle and its surroundings while sleeping and at the same time to cool the head and further improve the refreshing feeling. .

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention divides a main body 1 forming a pillow into an upper compartment 2 located in the back of the head and a lower compartment 3 located near the nape of the head, and the upper compartment 2 is hollow with a height for supporting the back of the head. An eccentric shaft-shaped massaging member that is provided with a hollow box pillow part 4 and accommodates a water bottle 5 that becomes an ice sac inside and detachably closes the upper surface with a breathable lid 6 to apply a pressing force to the vicinity of the nape of the neck. 7 is rotatably attached to the lower section 3, and a drive unit 8 for rotationally driving the massage member 7 is provided integrally with the main body 1.

【Example】

 The illustrated pillow with a massage has a structure in which the upper surface of a main body 1 forming the pillow is divided into an upper section 2 that can be contacted by the occipital region when in use and a lower section 3 that can be contacted by the vicinity of the nape of the neck. A partition plate 9 is provided at the boundary between the upper and lower sections 2 and 3, and the upper section 2 constitutes a horizontally long hollow box pillow portion 4 surrounded by the partition plate 9 and the upper plate 10. The partition plate 9 and the upper side plate 10 have the same height, and are set to a size suitable for supporting the occipital region.

A water bottle 5, which becomes an ice cube, is housed in the box pillow portion 4. The water bottle 5 is made of, for example, polyethylene and is used by putting water therein and freezing it in a freezer, and may be a commercially available one. 5a shows a cap. The box pillow 4 is closed by covering the upper opening with a lid 6 so that the head does not come into direct contact, and an appropriate opening 6a is provided so that cold air can effectively cool the occipital region or the nape of the neck.

The lower section 3 is used for an operating space of a massage member 7 described later. The massage member 7 is pivotally supported by the end plates 11 and 12 provided on the left and right of the main body 2. Reference numerals 13 and 14 denote shaft holes for the shaft support. The massaging member 7 is a curved portion 7a that is eccentric so that the space between the shaft portions pivotally supported by the shaft holes 13 and 14 projects diametrically from the center of rotation, and when the occipital region H is placed on the pillow head, The part N can be pressed with an appropriate force. The massage member 7 is formed of a curved tree branch or a bent resin pipe material.

A drive unit 8 for rotationally driving the massage member 7 is provided laterally to the end plate 12 integrally with the main body 1. Reference numeral 8a denotes a motor for driving the motor, the rotation of which is reduced to increase the torque and transmitted to the massage member 7. Reference numeral 15 denotes a drive unit cover, 16 a power cord, and 17 a switch.

In the pillow according to the present invention having such a structure, the water bottle 5 containing the ice I is housed in the upper compartment 2, and the cord 16 is connected to the power source to be used as the pillow. When the switch 17 is turned on, the massage member 7 having the eccentric shaft portion slowly rotates, and the operation of pressing the neck muscles N and the like is repeated, so-called massage is performed, and the pressing force changes the mounting manner of the occipital region H and the like. It can be adjusted. While the cold air of the ice I cools the occipital region H and the like, it can also act on the portion warmed by the massage.

[0010]

[Effect of device]

 Since the present invention is configured and operates as described above, it is possible to massage the neck muscles and its surroundings while sleeping and at the same time cool the head, and further refreshing feeling by alternately repeating massage and cooling. Has the effect of being able to improve
