DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of a pillow according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a pillow according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view showing the pillow developed in a plane. The pillow P of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, is formed by filling a rectangular flat cylindrical body 1 with padding 2 such as feathers to a uniform thickness, and filling the padding 2 at appropriate places so that the padding 2 does not shift. The thin pillow body 4 having a predetermined height is formed by folding the flat cylindrical body 1 by quilting 3 at a time.

On one side of the pillow body 4 in the longitudinal direction, a bag-shaped core material accommodation portion 6 for accommodating a core material 5 made of solid cotton in a plate-like manner so as to be able to freely enter and exit is connected to the other side. A pillow body 4 that is folded to a predetermined height and a bag-shaped covering portion 7 that covers the core material housing portion 6 are continuously provided.

As shown in FIG. 2, the pillow body 4 has a straight seam 3a perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the flat cylindrical body 1 and bent at a continuous portion of the core material accommodating portion 6 and the covering portion 7 as a bent portion. , 3d
And straight seams 3b, 3 for dividing the pillow body 4 into three parts
c are provided to form the bag portions 4a to 4c. In addition, bag part 4
The quilting 3 parallel to the straight stitches 3a to 3d is applied to a and 4c, respectively, and the straight stitches 3a to 3d are applied to the bag portion 4b.
The quilting 3 orthogonal to the quilting 3 is provided.

[0008] Then, as shown in FIG.
With the pillow body 4 and the covering portion 7 expanded, the core material 5 is accommodated in the core material accommodation portion 6, and the core material accommodation portion 6 is folded on the bag portion 4a with the straight stitches 3a as shown in FIG. 5 and 6
As shown in FIG.
b and 3c, the covering portion 7 is turned upside down at a predetermined height as shown in FIG. 6 until the opening at the leading edge is widened to reach the straight stitch 3d. Material storage section 6 and pillow body 4 which are folded in quadruples at
To form the pillow P shown in FIG.

It is preferable that the straight stitches 3a to 3d are provided with gradually increasing intervals in the order of the core material accommodating portion 6, the bag portion 4a, the bag portion 4b, the bag portion 4c, and the covering portion 7. By providing them in parallel, as shown in FIG. 7, the bag portions 4 a to 4 c are folded in order in such a manner that the core material accommodating portion 6 is rolled up, and the bag portions 4 a to 4 c are securely folded at the respective straight stitches 3 a to 3 d so as to be stable. Will be maintained.

In the pillow P thus folded, the bag portion 4b filled with the padding 2 is further overlapped on the upper side of the core material accommodating portion 6 accommodating the core material 5, and the pillow P is provided under the core material accommodating portion 6. Stuffing 2
The bag portions 4a and 4c filled with are folded in two layers, so that even if the core material 5 is hard, the hardness does not directly hit the head and has a suitable elasticity.

On the other hand, when it is better that the pillow P is hard, FIG.
As shown in the figure, the bag portions 4a to 4c are sequentially folded at the straight seams 3a to 3d in such a manner that the core material accommodating portion 6 accommodating the core material 5 is located at the uppermost position, and the bag portions 4a to 4d are wrapped with the covering portion 7 to be hard. It can be used as a pillow P.

In the structure shown in FIG. 9, a core material 5 and another core material 5a are stacked and accommodated in a core material accommodation portion 6. In this embodiment, the pillows P for the height of the core material 5a are different from those shown in FIG.
