Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pillow using a far infrared ray emitting material.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in the sleeping position when using a general sleeping / laying bed and a pillow, it is easy to make a gap in the shoulder opening, and this gap is used for hanging or bedclothes. Since they could do almost the same, they were forced to have an uncomfortable sleeping condition in which they were cooled through the gaps in the shoulder even when using warm bedding.

In order to deal with this, both ends of the pillow are pulled down to the shoulders to close the gap between the bedclothes and the bedclothes,
A pillow in which a part of the pillow is directly applied to the shoulder to warm the shoulder is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 55-52277.

In order to prevent shoulder cooling from the viewpoint of a filling material, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 59-75178 discloses a pillow with a pillow portion filled with a cold-retaining substance such as buckwheat hulls and rice husks. , A pillow made up of two parts, a shoulder pad filled with a heat-retaining substance such as cotton and panya.

On the other hand, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 2-71368 discloses that
A pillow using a heat retaining effect of far infrared rays is disclosed. This is a pillow in which small pieces of far-infrared radiation ceramics are arranged on the surface of an outer bag body that houses and molds a filler. Further, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 1-180964 discloses a pillow using far-infrared radioactive ore as a filler. These are pillows for the purpose of promoting blood circulation by far-infrared radiation and recovering from fatigue.

[0006]

However, keeping the head cool is a condition of good sleep, as is generally called cold head and foot fever. For this reason, conventionally, as a filler for pillows, a cold contact filler having excellent heat dissipation property, such as buckwheat rattle, chaff, or plastic pipe, has been used. On the other hand, unlike the head, it is not preferable to cool the shoulder, but rather I want to warm it, but with the above-mentioned cold-touch filler, the effect will be halved even if the shape fits the shoulder. . However, in order to warm the shoulder here, if the filler is made of high heat-retaining material such as panya or cotton,
The cold touch of the head is impaired.

On the other hand, in the pillow using far infrared ray emitting ceramics, since the far infrared ray emitting ceramics is arranged or filled in the portion where the head contacts, the cooling feeling of the head is impaired and the ceramic piece There is a problem that the hardness of the skin makes it uncomfortable to touch and prevents sleep.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the head retains a refreshing feeling, shoulder cold is prevented, and far-infrared radiation radiates infrared rays to promote blood circulation. The aim is to provide a healthy sleeping pillow that can be obtained.

[0009]

To achieve this object, in the pillow of the present invention, a packing material having good air permeability and a cool feeling such as buckwheat is stored in an outer bag body, and the length of the outer bag body is increased. One side of the direction is formed in a concave curve shape with a depressed central portion, and along this, cotton containing far infrared radiation ceramics (hereinafter referred to as far red cotton) is housed inside the outer bag body.

Further, between the filler and the far-red cotton,
The partition cloth may be fixed.

Further, a small bag body containing the far-red cotton may be housed inside the concave curved portion of the outer bag body.

[0012]

In the pillow of the present invention having the above structure, the concave curved portion provided on the outer bag body is applied along the shoulder opening of the user so that the pillow and the shoulder are at the same height and the space between the shoulder and the pillow is small. Do not create a gap in In addition, a highly breathable filling material such as buckwheat is prevented from stuffy by absorbing moisture and releasing heat, and the far-red cotton stored along the concave curved portion contacts the shoulder portion to warm the shoulder portion and promote blood circulation.

Further, by fixing the partition cloth between the filling material and the far red cotton, it is possible to prevent the far red cotton and the filling material from moving and mixing during sleep.

Further, the far-red cotton is stored in a small bag, and the small bag is stored inside the outer bag.

[0015]

EXAMPLE An example of embodying the present invention in a pillow will be described below.
This will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

FIG. 1 is an external perspective view of the pillow of this embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line AA of the pillow shown in FIG.

The pillow of the present embodiment has an outer bag body 1 having a concave curved portion 1A in which the middle portion of one side in the longitudinal direction is depressed, a filler 2 accommodated in the outer bag body 1, and the outer bag body 1 described above. Concave curve 1
A partition cloth 3 sewn in the vicinity of A in the longitudinal direction thereof, a concave curved portion 1A of the outer bag body 1 and the partition cloth 3
And far-red cotton 4 housed inside the space between

The filler 2 is made of buckwheat or plastic pipe that has high air permeability and is hard to retain heat, or filler such as azuki beans or water that has high thermal conductivity and heat capacity and feels cool.

The partition cloth 3 extends in the longitudinal direction with a slight gap between it and the inner surface of the outer bag body 1 on the inner side of one side of the outer bag body 1 having the concave curved portion 1A. The far-red cotton 4 and the filling material 2 are prevented from moving during use by partitioning the filling material 2 and the far-red cotton 4 together.

The far-red cotton 4 is made of synthetic fiber such as polyester or rayon, and contains particles of oxide ceramics having far-infrared radiation characteristics.

The oxide ceramics used here have a wavelength peak of 8 to 8 in agreement with the infrared wavelength of the human body when heated to 35.5 to 36.5 ° C., which is almost equal to the body temperature.
Those having a far-infrared radiation characteristic of radiating an electromagnetic wave of 14 μm are used.

When the pillow configured as described above is used, the concave curved portion 1A of the outer bag body 1 is applied in close contact with the user's shoulder, and the sleeping bedding / bed bedding opened at the shoulder opening. Close the gap between. The filler 2 absorbs and radiates heat to prevent heat and moisture from being trapped in the head. On the other hand, concave curved portion 1A
The far-red cotton 4 stored in the outer bag along with emits an electromagnetic wave with a wavelength that matches the infrared absorption wavelength of the human body when warmed by the user's body temperature, providing a good heat retaining effect and blood circulation. Promote and prevent cold shoulders.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described in detail above, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
