Description

Neck support device {The apparatus for supporting neck}

The present invention relates to a neck support device.

In the human body, the neck is the part of the body that connects the head to the shoulders and chest. The major organs that pass through the neck are the seven cervical vertebrae, the spinal cord veins that support it, and the neck arteries. In addition, the neck bone is an important body component that supports the body along with the vertebral bone, and when an abnormality occurs in the neck bone or the vertebral bone, a disease such as a neck disc or a waist disc is caused.

In general, when the neck or lumbar disc is caught, in addition to surgery, the neck or lumbar traction device is continuously managed. Therefore, in order to protect the passenger's neck from an accident which may occur, a neck cushion is connected to the upper part of the back of the seat in a transportation means such as a car or an airplane.

However, as described above, the neck rest coupled to the upper back of the seat is installed mainly for the purpose of preparing for safety accidents, and it is not enough to eliminate neck fatigue caused by long-term car riding or airplane riding.

At this time, the fatigue of the neck is due to holding the weight of the head corresponding to approximately 4.5Kg for a long time, various types of neck pillows have been developed to solve the above-mentioned neck fatigue somewhat.

However, the neck pillow is a separate product, and in order to use it in a car or an airplane, it is not only required to be firmly fixed to the neck cushion on the upper back as a separate strap, but also depending on physical characteristics such as height of the passenger. Neck pillow fixed to the cushion was inconvenient to support the neck accurately.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a neck support device that can be securely attached to the neck cushion of the car or airplane while being easy to move or possession, and stably support the neck bone while height is adjusted.

Neck support device according to an embodiment of the present invention, a neck support device coupled to the neck cushion is connected to the seat of the vehicle, the height of the neck cushion can be coupled to the neck cushion mounting space formed on the inside Adjusting unit, coupled to the height adjustment unit, the head support is formed on the side of the rim portion to guide the neck of the passenger to guide the neck, and the cervical spine support coupled to any one of the height adjustment unit or the head support Include.

The height adjustment unit, the first control plate which can be in close contact with one side of the neck cushion, the first control plate is disposed at a predetermined interval apart, can be in close contact with the other side facing the one side of the neck cushion. It may include a second control plate, and a third control plate connecting the first control plate and the second control plate.

The head support may be connected at right angles to the first adjustment plate, and the opening of the neck guide may be disposed at the edge of the head support opposite to the first adjustment plate.

The cervical spine support may be coupled adjacent to the coupling portion to which the first control plate and the head support are connected.

Further comprising a neck cushion support coupled to the third adjustment plate, the third adjustment plate is formed with a height adjustment hole, the neck cushion support portion, the height adjustment screw screwed to the height adjustment hole, the neck cushion mounting It is disposed in the space, and may include a neck cushion support panel coupled to one end of the height adjustment screw, and a handle coupled to the other end of the height adjustment screw.

The first adjustment plate is formed with a support guide groove, the head support is coupled to the first head support panel and the first head support panel that can slide along the support guide groove, the neck guide portion It includes a second head support panel is formed, and further comprising a locking portion for stopping the first head support panel in a predetermined position with respect to the first adjustment plate, a plurality of at a predetermined interval along the support guide groove A locking groove may be formed.

The locking portion is connected to a locking member inserted into a locking member insertion hole formed on one side of the first head support panel, and to one end of the locking member, and the other end of the locking member is connected to the locking member. It may include an elastic member for applying elasticity to be caught in the locking groove.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, it can be firmly supported on the neck cushion of the car or airplane, and can adjust the height of the cervical vertebral support according to the physical characteristics of the passenger, not only convenient to use, but also comfortable to rest during long trips It is good at recovery of fatigue. In particular, the head can be prevented from being drooped, and the weight of the head can relieve pressure on the neck bone, thereby helping to prevent neck discs.

In addition, the neck support device can be easily attached to or detached from the neck cushion of a car or an airplane, and maintenance is easy.

In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, in the event of a collision while driving a vehicle, the head of the passenger is held so that the head is placed at the center of the neck cushion of the car, thereby reducing the neck injury caused by the impact as much as possible. There is a protective effect.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art may easily implement the present invention. As those skilled in the art would realize, the described embodiments may be modified in various different ways, all without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Like parts are designated by like reference numerals throughout the specification.

Then, a neck support device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.
