Description

[0001] DEFORMABLE CUSHION WITH STRETCH MATERIAL [0002]

The present invention relates to a cushion capable of deforming a shape using a stretchable material. In general, a cushion is used in one shape. When the cushion is used, the cushion is slightly bent or flattened I try to make a change, such as making thick. However, due to the limitation of the original shape, there are many things that cause inconvenience by going back to the original shape after a while. In order to compensate for this, it is possible to deform easily without deforming or shrinking by using stretch fabric to realize various shapes and to realize it. Also, it is possible to prevent the bursting of the bar material and to use the filling material as the cotton, Thereby providing a superior cushioning feeling.

The cushion is closely related to our daily life, and we can see that we spend a lot of time in the room with cushion. The cushion has a tendency to specialize in a variety of neck cushions, waist cushions, foot cushions and even toe cushions based on a backrest cushion.

Among the conventional techniques of cushion changing shape by one cushion, the registered utility model 20-0463898 is a technology that can be deformed from a neck pillow to a cushion. This is a movable filling material. It is made of foamed styrene beads to make two connected outer sheaths The unused outer shell is modified by two methods in which it is put together with the filler. In this technique, the outer shell is always the same as the filler. There is no cushioning force inside the outer shell, and the space There is a user's inconvenience due to the lack of cushion power due to the shortage and the time required for the movement of the filler at the time of deformation.

When a neck cushion (pillow) is used, it is a technique to prevent a merely opening of the entrance by inserting a binding material or an elastic body in a public utility model 20-2012-0006946 having a binding device at the neck cushion entrance portion. In order to solve the inconvenience caused by the neck pillow, the registered utility model 20-0463044 is designed so that the neck support part of the baby neck pillow is narrower than the left and right, There is a disadvantage that the cushioning feeling of the back part is lost.

 To make various changes depending on the posture, the fabric itself needs to be changed. So, basically, you have to use stretch fabric to stretch and stretch. If there is no stretch or use of a small fabric, a lot of force will be applied when the fabric is deformed, the fabric may not be returned to the original shape again, and the sewing portion may pop out.

Up to now, cushion is the most used cushion with cotton as a filler. There are many cushion fillers, but there are no fillers that can still be used. So it is the most used. The cushion using stretch fabric uses a small granular foamed styrene which is called a bead cushion. The cushioning principle of this is that when one side of the cushion is pressed, the portion which is not pressed is stretched, that is, the cushioning force is generated as the foamed styrene is pushed. If the cushion is pressed entirely, that is, when the space to be pushed is lost, the cushion force is significantly reduced.

So, basically, you have to use stretch fabric to stretch and deform. Stretchy elasticity of the fabric, due to repeated deformation and deformation of the cushion, even after a long fixation, does not change the shape of the cushion, it can be easily deformed and does not give too much to sewing.

By using stretch fabric, cushioning feeling can be maximized. If you put cotton in the filler described above, only the area where the pressure is reduced, and the other part remains unaffected. Even if you press the whole area, the cushion feeling is the same as when you press one part. But why not use cotton for this stretchy material? There are major drawbacks. This is due to the texture properties of the elastic material. For example, it was a difficult part to commercialize because cotton was spread out much between tissues rather than general cotton (cotton) fabric. To achieve this, microfiber spandex fabric is used as a microfiber, and high elasticity fabric or high elasticity spandex fabric is brushed on one side, so that the cotton and brass are tangled to prevent protruding between the tissues. Also, the effect of using these fabrics doubly is bigger.

And by using the cushion, it is possible to support the neck which is the function of the existing neck pillow more actively by various shape implementation, and when the backrest is used when using the smartphone or tablet PC, it is deformed to fit various postures To provide a new concept cushion.

The deformable cushion using the stretchable material of the present invention basically uses cotton as a filler. In addition to cotton, foamed styrene beads, sponges, memory foam, and latex can be used, but cushioning materials that exceed the cushioning strength of cotton are not acceptable. In order to deliver the cushioning ability of the cotton to the user without loss, the stretch fabric is used and the stretch fabric has a great effect on the expansion and contraction of the fabric due to the deformation (Fig. 1). Also, In order to make elastic fabric, micro-spandex fabrics and high-elastic spandex fabrics are brushed on one side. These elastic fabrics are useful for antimicrobial, deodorant, and feeling when used as functional fabrics that allow air to pass through and dry quickly. Elastic fabric also provides easy deformation.

 Snap buttons, Velcro tapes, magnetic buttons, etc. are needed to make the deformations and maintain the deformed shape. Here we use the most common snap buttons. As shown in FIG. 4, male and female snap buttons 2 and male snap buttons 1 are mounted on the left and right sides of the upper part, and the lower ends of the male and female snap buttons 1 and 2 are mounted symmetrically, It was possible. Also, as shown in Fig. 4, for easy deformation, the gap between the crack part and the circular space part 11 was narrowly designed, and the middle part 12 of the stop part was designed to be narrow, so that the folded part due to the shape change was narrow and easy to move.

In order to attain the above object, the cushion according to the present invention is a normal cushion composed of a filler in the inside of the outer fabric and the outer covering, wherein the cushion has an upper portion forming a cracked portion of a concave bone forming center, An intermediate portion having a circular space portion and an elliptical concave portion having a relatively smaller diameter than the upper end portion and the lower end portion,

And a lower end portion of an elliptical shape whose diameter is gradually enlarged downward from the intermediate portion to be reduced and closed,

The outer skin is a deformable functional fabric of a stretchable material that provides comfort when contacted with the user's skin due to elasticity, air permeability, antibacterial and deodorizing function. The inside of the outer skin is brushed to prevent the filling material from protruding through the fabric A bristle processing unit

The filler of the outer skin is filled with microfiber cotton having excellent restoring force, antibacterial property, anti-mite property and human affinity

The upper and lower ends are provided with coupling and detachable coupling devices so that the cushion can be folded vertically or horizontally on a plane view of the cushion so that the user can selectively deform the cushion.

In addition, when the cushion is used as a neck pillow, the coupling device may include a snap button, a Velcro tape, a magnet or a button, The right and left sides 3 and 4 rise up to wrap the right and left sides of the face H and the cushion can be lifted up and down in accordance with the change of the joining mode of the coupling device by a jaw cushion, a head cushion, a waist cushion, It can be used as arm cushion, smart phone, tablet PC cushion, etc.

The deformable cushion using the stretchable material of the present invention basically uses cotton as a filler. 1, the difference between the stretchable fabric and the non-stretchable fabric can be seen. Even if the same force (F) is applied, the cushioning feeling can be maximized by the increased fabric characteristics. However, in order to prevent the nature of the cotton from being pushed out between the fabric tissues, a fabric made of microfiber spandex fabric or high elasticity spandex fabric is brushed on one side. 2, the structure of the micro-spandex spandex fabric is made of micro-microfibers, and the micro-veins like micro-veins are entangled in the fabric structure, so that the cotton can not protrude between the fabric tissues. A stretch fabric also has a great effect in preventing bridges and cotton tangled from coming out of the fabric between fabrics.

In addition, stretch fabric is good air, moisture (sweat) to add a function to dry well, there is antibacterial and anti-seizing effect.

As shown in FIG. 4, the shape of the cushion is symmetrically arranged vertically and horizontally symmetrically with respect to the vertical and horizontal directions of the male and female snap buttons 2 and 1, and the female and male snap buttons 2 and 1 The left and right sides 3 are raised so that the right and left sides of the head can be more reliably supported and the back head portion can be lowered by the upper crack portion so that the head can be turned backward as shown in FIG. 10 and the upper and lower male and female snap buttons 2, When the male and female snap buttons 2 and 1 are fastened together, they can be used as a head cushion (pillow), an arm cushion or the like as shown in FIG. 11 and can be used as the upper male / female snap buttons 2 and 1 and the lower end snap buttons 2 and 1 ) Can be used as a face cushion or a waist cushion. Of course, if you do not bind the snap button, you can use it as a smartphone or a tablet pc cushion that uses a neck cushion, a back cushion, and a twisted lower portion as shown in FIG. 11 and puts the hand between the arm and the side.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. First, the elastic fabric using cotton as a filler can be seen in the difference between the normal fabric (B) and the elastic fabric (C) as shown in Fig. The cushion sectional view (B) using the non-stretchable fabric shows that when the force F is applied to the cushion, the fabric length W is almost the same as the cushion A before applying the force F. This results in a force opposite to the force F held by the fabric, resulting in the cushioning force of the cotton being canceled by the fabric. The sectional view (C) of the cushion using the stretch fabric shows that when the force (F) is applied to the cushion, the length (W) of the fabric is increased and the force (F) by the fabric transmits the cushioning force of the cotton as much as possible without much loss. In addition, when used as a microfiber (microfiber) cotton in cotton, it is excellent in excellent resilience, antimicrobial activity, anti-mite property and human affinity.

There is a problem with cotton when using stretch fabric. Due to the nature of the cotton, it has the property to poke out between the fabric tissues. Also, the stretch fabric is more protruded than the normal fabric. Therefore, when the general stretchable fabric is used, the stretchable fabric shown in FIG. 3 shows a state in which the stretched fabric and the left and right forces (FL and FR) are stretched. Therefore, to effectively prevent this, the stretch fabric is made of microfiber spandex fabric or a high-elastic spandex fabric and brushed on one side. As shown in FIG. 2, the microfiber spandex fabric has a fabric characteristic in which very thin microfibers are tangled like a microvascular structure, so that the microfiber yarn of the microfiber spandex fabric is prevented from sticking to the tissues entangled with the cotton fibers. have.

Also, as shown in FIG. 3 of the comparison between the general stretch fabric and the brushed fabric on one side, the general stretch fabric, as described above, stretches the fabric by applying the original state and force (FL, FR) In the state of the cotton, the cotton is pushed out through the fabric tissues, and the amount of the protruding cotton is increased. In order to prevent such problems, when brushed on one side of elastic fabric, the cotton is tangled with brushed even when the fabric does not stretch or is stretched due to the force (FL, FR), thereby preventing the cotton from protruding between the fabric.

In addition to elasticity, the stretch fabric has good air circulation and moisture (sweat) is easy to dry, which is very helpful for antibacterial and deodorization, and the contact surface of the skin is always comfortable.

The outer shape of the deformed cushion using the elastic fabric is divided into an upper part, a middle part and a lower part as seen in FIG. 4, and a crack is formed at the upper part and a circular space part is located at the middle part. In addition, the male and female snap buttons (2, 1) on the left and right sides of the upper and lower parts are symmetrically arranged in the vertical and horizontal directions when viewed from the whole plan view. have. This snap button keeps the shape of the cushion deformed when it is deformed.

In order to facilitate the deformation when the cushion is deformed, the left and right sides (12) between the crack portion and the circular space portion (11) and the circular space portion of the middle portion are designed to be thinly and easily folded. The shape can be maintained well even when folded. If a non-stretch fabric is used, it is difficult to fold because of the nature of the fabric to keep its original shape at the time of deformation. If the fabric is folded for a long time, the fabric will stretch and can not be shrunk again. Can occur.

It can be used as a neck cushion among the cushions modified by the modified cushion using stretch fabric, but it can be used as a neck cushion originally. However, as shown in FIG. 5, when the cushion is worn on the neck, (2, 1), the outer side (3, 4) of the cushion is raised, and the left and right side are raised, so that the left and right sides of the face (H) are held higher, And it has a sense of stability, which further improves the performance of the neck cushion. In addition, as shown in FIG. 9, the neck portion is supported at the portion (11), the middle portion of the back head is located between the upper crack portions, the back head side portion is positioned at the portion (8) (6) is large, so that it does not fall on the head when sleeping and does not fall forward, and maintains a comfortable posture. The usual neck cushion is like (5), and the angle of the face falls to the back, so it is always standing, and it gives a load to the neck and also the forward head falls when it sleeps, and it gives a head to the head.

 The lower bottom snap buttons (1, 2) perform the same function with different positions. Figure 6 shows a side view of the lower end male and female snap buttons 2 and 1. Figure (a) shows the center of the lower end, Figure (b) shows the inside of the lower end of the position shown in Figure 5, (D, e) is the same as the figure (b, c) part, but the connecting fabric or patch is attached and the snap button is attached on it. The same effect can be achieved by increasing both sides.

In Figure 7, the upper and lower male and female snap buttons (2, 1) are joined together and the lower male and female snap buttons (2, 1) are joined together by using a deformable cushion using stretchable fabric as a head cushion As described above, the portion (11) of FIG. 4 is designed to be narrow and can be easily folded. It can be used variously as a head cushion (pillow), an arm cushion, or the like as shown in FIG.

When using the waist cushion or the face cushion (pillow), as shown in FIG. 8, the upper and lower male and female snap buttons 2 and 1 and the lower male and female snap buttons 2 and 1 are combined. And it can be used as a cushion for a waist when sitting with a face cushion.

Cushioning is also a great help when using smartphones or tablet PCs, which are becoming increasingly important in daily life. Referring to FIG. 11, the dotted line indicates the arm and the smartphone. When the bottom part is opened, the upper crack part becomes narrower. When the male and female snap buttons (2, 1) are turned downward, the lower part is positioned between the arm and the side part to comfortably support the arm. The upper part supports the hands and the smartphone Finally, the whole arm is supported, and it is possible to use comfortably for a long time without hand and arms. This works the same on tablet PCs. In addition, as shown in FIG. 10, it can be used as a cushion for supporting both arms and supporting the jaw portion 9, and a backrest cushion for supporting the entire back.

In addition to the ones described above, various applications are possible, and the user can modify the device according to the intended use.
