Although a plurality of the ventilation holes 28 may be formed, in the present embodiment, only one is formed at the center portion as shown in FIG. 6 in consideration of manufacturability.

When the vent hole 28 is formed in the height adjusting part 2 as described above, even if the height adjusting part 2 is formed in the air-injected closed structure, it is possible to ensure air permeability in the vertical direction so that comfortable sleep is possible.

FIG. 7 is a view showing a third modification of the smart pillow according to the second embodiment of the present invention, and a perspective view showing the overall structure and an enlarged section C of the perspective view are shown.

The smart pillow according to the third modified example has a height adjusting part (2) consisting of an upper surface fabric (21), a lower fabric (22), a connecting yarn (23), and an adjusting portion closing member (24) and a fluid inlet / outlet (27). It is composed of a multilayer structure.

For example, as shown in Figure 7, the height adjustment unit 2 is composed of three layers can adjust the height of the pillow by adding or subtracting the number of layers for injecting air.

That is, in order to maximize the height of the pillow to inject air to all the height adjustment part (2) of the third floor, if you want to lower the height of the pillow in the way to exhaust the air through the fluid inlet and outlet (27) The height can be adjusted while exhausting the air one by one. And, if you want to finely adjust the height of the pillow, it is possible to adjust the height in such a way to exhaust the air injection amount of each height adjustment unit (2) little by little.

Fig. 8 is an enlarged sectional view showing the main parts of a fourth modification of the smart pillow according to the second embodiment of the present invention.

The smart pillow according to the fourth modified example has a height adjusting part 2 in a multi-layered structure as shown in FIG. 8, and the height adjusting part 2 is formed by filling a filler 7 therein. At this time, the filler 7 may be configured in all the height adjustment unit, or may be configured only in the height adjustment unit of a specific layer.

Further, the filler 7 may be filled with the entire height of the spaced space d of the height adjusting part 2, but as shown in FIG. 8, the filler is formed to have a thickness lower than the vertical height of the spaced space d. It is preferable.

Thus, if the filler 7 is formed lower than the vertical height of the separation space (d), even if the air in the height adjustment unit (2, the separation space) to exhaust the air has a height as thick as the filler (7) the height of the pillow Adjustments can be made more conveniently. For example, if the height of the pillow desired by the user is slightly higher than the height of the two-level adjuster 2, the air in the height adjuster 2 of one floor is exhausted and the height adjuster 2 of the two floors is exhausted. Even if the air is injected only, the height of the filling material added to the height adjustment part of one layer is added, so that the height can be adjusted quickly and conveniently.

What has been described above is just one embodiment for carrying out the smart pillow according to the present invention, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and as claimed in the following claims do not depart from the gist of the present invention.
