If you use a pillow that is too low or do not sleep on a pillow at all, your neck will become straight and there is a risk of cervical disc herniation. If you use a pillow that is too high, the muscles in the back of your neck and shoulders will become stiff, which can put a strain on your neck, especially. In the case of growing children, it can be a factor that hinders skeletal development.

However, since most conventional pillows are manufactured in a certain shape and have a structure that cannot arbitrarily adjust the height to suit the user's physical conditions, a problem arises in that the user must purchase a pillow that fits the user at the time of purchase. , Also, when multiple people use one pillow, there is a problem in that the user has to endure the inconvenience of the height of the pillow not being suitable for the user.

In addition, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, various types of height-adjustable pillows are manufactured and distributed by applying a structure that adjusts the height by controlling the amount of air injection. However, the conventional height-adjustable pillow has different heights. The adjustment process is cumbersome, it is difficult to firmly maintain the adjusted height, and as the pillow structure becomes more complex, problems such as frequent breakdowns or poor economic efficiency have arisen.
