JPH08126563A - Height-adjustable pillow - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE: To prevent the occurrence of a snore by adjusting the height of a pillow via the right and left turn of a screw. CONSTITUTION: Pillow materials 1 and 4 are fitted to plate type materials 2 and 2', and a vertical height adjustment mechanism 3 is mounted between the materials 2 and 2'. In addition, downward curvature is formed on the front section of the material 2 at a position coming in contact with a neck. Height adjustment can be easily made by turning right and left screws. When the pillow so made is used, the height thereof is adjusted, so as to keep the scruff of the neck horizontal or at a level before or after the horizontal condition for a sideways lying posture. This pillow can be used more comfortably in the sideways lying posture through height adjustment and, therefore, more opportunities appear for use in the sideways lying posture. Even if a person turns on his/her back during a sleep, the neck is slightly bent and the head tends to be elevated, thereby reducing the occurrence of a snore. In addition, the adjustment of pillow height and the material 2 reduces an extent of head sink into the pillow. Also, the downward curvature on the front section in contact with the neck keeps a sleeping person in such a state as capable of unconsciously preventing the easy occurrence of a snore.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a pillow using a plate-like object that moves up and down by turning a screw to the left and right. The snoring of snoring to others at home or in a large hospital room is immeasurable, but the present invention seeks to prevent snoring by adjusting the height of the pillow. Conventionally, there has been no pillow that tries to prevent the occurrence of snoring by adjusting the height. In order to achieve this purpose with a conventional pillow, several pillows with different heights are required, and further, it is necessary to devise to reduce the degree to which the head sinks on the pillow. It is difficult to set the height accurately even for pillows that are filled with air, and it is difficult to achieve this purpose because the head sinks into the pillow. Originally, most of snoring occurs when you lie on your back, but this pillow makes it easier to lie sideways by adjusting the height.
I'm getting more time to sleep sideways. Even if you turn your head while you are sleeping, your neck will bend slightly and your head will lift up and down, so there will be less snoring. In addition, the head does not sink to the pillow due to the plate-like object and the front part (the part where the neck hits) has a downward curve, so it is easy to change the posture sideways or to the back. You can Therefore, the occurrence of non-pathological snoring can be almost prevented. Adjust the height of this pillow so that it lays sideways and the neck is horizontal or in front of and behind it. The height can be easily adjusted by turning the screws attached to the left and right. As a result of making and using this pillow, we found that the number of occurrences of snoring was significantly reduced compared to the case of using a normal pillow, and confirmed it by a long recording while using it. Is. When you do not have to worry about snoring, you can lower the height and use it as a normal pillow. The present invention may use electricity to power the pillow up and down quickly.
