Figures 8 to 11 are diagrams for explaining the characteristics of the height-adjustable pillow 300 according to another embodiment of the present invention.

The height-adjustable pillow according to the present invention includes a cushion member having an upper surface formed as a curved surface to contact the head of the human body and a lower surface formed flat, and a core member coupled to the cushion member and filled with a plurality of wooden cubes therein. It is configured to include.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the attached drawings. It should be noted that the attached drawings and the embodiments described with reference to them are simplified and illustrated with the intention of helping those skilled in the art to understand the present invention.

Figures 1 to 4 are views for explaining the characteristics of the height-adjustable pillow 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

1 to 4, the height-adjustable pillow 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a cushion member 110 and a core member 120.

The cushion member 110 has upper surfaces (P1, P2) that are curved so that the head of the human body touches them, and a lower surface (P3) that is flat. Among the upper surfaces (P1, P2), the P1 part is the part that contacts the upper part of the back of the head when used, and the P2 part is the part that contacts the cervical spine or the back of the head near the back of the neck and the back of the neck. In FIG. 1 , when a user lies down on a pillow along the width direction W, the 5 o'clock direction is the downward direction and the 11 o'clock direction is the upward direction. As shown in FIG. 4, the cushion member 110 has a portion (reference numeral 111) where the upper portion of the back of the head is located when the user lies down on a pillow, and the cervical spine portion or the back of the head close to the back of the neck and the back of the neck. It is divided into the located part (reference numeral 112). As shown, in the cushion member 110, the thickness of the portion where the cervical spine or the back of the neck is generally located is formed to be thick. The cushion member 110 may be formed of memory foam made of polyurethane, but is not limited to this material.

The core member 120 is a component that is coupled to the cushion member 110 and is filled with a plurality of wooden cubes (reference numeral 112, see FIG. 5). In this embodiment, the core member 120 is inserted into the groove 113 formed in the cushion member 110. That is, an elongated groove 113 is formed in the longitudinal direction (L direction) in the cushion member 110, and the core member 120 is inserted into the groove 113 in the longitudinal direction. When the core member 120 is inserted into the groove 113, only both ends of the core member 120 are exposed, as shown. In order to facilitate insertion of the core member 120 into the groove 113, a long cut portion 115 is further formed along the longitudinal direction. Therefore, when it is desired to use the pillow of the present invention to have a low, soft cushion without the core member 120, it can be used with the core member 120 removed by opening the cut portion 115, and unlike this, a harder cushion can be used. When it is desired to use the pillow of the present invention to have a comfortable feeling, the incision 115 can be opened again and the core member 120 can be used with the core member 120 inserted into the groove 113.

Figure 3 is a diagram showing the height-adjustable pillow 100 of the present invention covered with a pillow cover 130. In actual use, the pillow will be used with the pillow cover 130 covered.

Figure 5 is a diagram for explaining the characteristics of the core member 120 in the height-adjustable pillow 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 5, the core member 120 includes a wooden bag 121 and wooden cubes 122. The wooden bag 121 is formed to have a breathable mesh structure, and wooden cubes 122 are filled into the wooden bag 121. The wood cube 122 is made of cypress wood, but other wood materials that emit phytoncide components may also be used. The size or three-dimensional shape of the wooden cube 122 may vary.

Figures 6 and 7 are diagrams for explaining the characteristics of the height-adjustable pillow 200 according to another embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to Figures 6 and 7, the height-adjustable pillow in this embodiment includes a cushion member 210 having an upper surface formed as a curved surface and a lower surface formed as flat so as to contact the head of the human body, and a cushion member ( It is coupled to 210) and includes a core member 220 in which a plurality of wooden cubes are filled. The structure of the cushion member 210 is generally similar to the cushion member 110 of the previously described embodiment, except for the portion that contacts the cervical spine or the back of the neck and its vicinity. In this embodiment, the groove 213 is formed concave so that the upper part is exposed, unlike the groove 113 formed in the shape of a hole in the cushion member 110 of the previously described embodiment. Accordingly, the groove 213 in this embodiment is formed elongated along the longitudinal direction with its upper part exposed. Therefore, in the state in which the core member 220 is inserted into the groove 215, as shown in FIG. 6, the core member 220 is not only at both ends, but also a portion of the surface in the longitudinal direction of the core member 220 (FIG. In 6, reference numeral 224 (hereinafter referred to as 'exposed surface') is exposed to the top. Accordingly, when the user lies down on a pillow with the core member 220 inserted into the groove 213 of the cushion member 210, the user's cervical spine or the back of the neck comes into contact with the exposed surface 224. When the core member 220 is not inserted, the user can use the pillow 200 of the present invention with a low and soft cushion, and when the core member 220 is inserted, the user can use the pillow 200 with a high and harder cushion. The pillow 200 of the present invention can be used. In this embodiment, it can also be used with the pillow cover 130 as shown in FIG. 3.

Figures 8 to 11 are diagrams for explaining the characteristics of the height-adjustable pillow 300 according to another embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to Figures 8 to 11, the height-adjustable pillow 300 according to this embodiment includes a cushion member 310 having an upper surface formed as a curved surface to contact the head of the human body and a lower surface formed as flat; It is coupled to the cushion member 310 and includes a core member 320 filled with a plurality of wooden cubes therein. Unlike the previous two embodiments 100 and 200, in this embodiment, the core member 320 is not inserted into the cushion member 310, but is formed so that the inclined surfaces 311 and 321 formed on each face each other. It is configured to be combined. A first inclined surface 311 is formed in the cushion member 310 to tilt downward, and a second inclined surface (311) is formed in the core member 320 toward the upper side, that is, to face the first inclined surface 311 of the cushion member 310. 321) is formed. When these are combined, the first inclined surface 311 and the second inclined surface 321 come into contact with each other and maintain the correct position. In this embodiment, the first inclined surface 311 and the second inclined surface 321 are brought into contact with each other to couple the cushion member 310 and the core member 320 to each other to maintain the state shown in FIGS. 8 and 9. To do this, a coupling member (not shown) is further included. The coupling member may be of a zipper type, Velcro tape type, or adhesive tape type. For example, the first inclined surface 311 of the cushion member 310 and the second inclined surface 321 of the core member 320 are connected to each other with a zipper to separate the cushion member 310 and the core member 320 from each other. It can be configured to be separated or combined. The core member 320, similar to the core members 120 and 220 in the previous embodiments, is configured to include a wooden bag with a breathable mesh structure and a plurality of wooden cubes filled therein. However, while in the previously described embodiments the core members 120 and 220 were formed in a long rod type, in this embodiment, the second inclined surface 321 is upwardly inclined as shown in FIGS. 8 to 11. It is formed and the lower side is flat, and when combined, it has an overall profile similar to the previous embodiments. In this embodiment as well, it can be used with the pillow cover 130 as shown in FIG. 3.
