Description

Multi-functional pillow {Multi-functional pillow}

The present invention relates to a pillow that comfortably supports the user's cervical spine and head to enable sleep or rest. More specifically, a C-shaped curved portion supporting the user's cervical spine is formed at the center of the back side of the pillow body, and the user's cervical spine is supported. As multiple rows of airline grooves are formed in the center of the upper surface of the pillow body where the head is supported, sweat does not fill up despite the increase in scalp heat, and air holes are formed on both sides of the pillow body that penetrate the pillow body in the vertical direction. This relates to a multi-functional pillow that provides a smooth scent to the user's nose by forming a chip insertion groove into which the phytoncide chip is inserted at a position corresponding to the bottom of the air hole on the lower surface of the pillow to induce quick sleep and a comfortable sleep. .

In general, a pillow is a type of bedding that comfortably supports the user's head and cervical spine to enable sleep or rest.

Typically, pillows use filling materials such as cotton, rice husk, or synthetic resin chips, but as these pillows do not support the cervical spine stably, recently, synthetic resin materials such as memory foam have been used. Pillows made of custom foam are widely used.

Although these pillows stably support the head and cervical vertebrae, there is no ventilation at all, so they are prone to sanitary reasons such as those who sweat a lot while sleeping, or bacteria multiply and produce bad odors due to the sweat secreted in the summer. There is a problem.

As an example of a plan to solve this problem, Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-0280650 (announced on July 4, 2002) describes a typical pillow consisting of a pillow frame, a pillow filling, and a pillow net, and the pillow frame is a three-dimensional ventilated pillow. The fabric is constructed by appropriately cutting and sewing. The ventilated three-dimensional fabric (3) is woven using a double ratchet machine, etc., and simultaneously weaves a knit or mesh fabric with the upper and lower two pieces made of polyester yarn. The pillow is woven so that the pile is connected with fishing line or monofilament yarn between two pieces of knit or mesh fabric, and the pillow interior is molded with latex, a soft rubber material, to form a pillow shape, with many deep holes or grooves on the surface. A ventilated pillow characterized by being formed is disclosed.

In addition, Korean Utility Model Registration No. 20-0343628 (announced on March 4, 2004) describes a typical synthetic resin pillow manufactured by foaming and molding synthetic resin foam, and a porous filter with good ventilation is provided on the upper surface of the pillow. A breathable pillow characterized as being integrally formed is disclosed.

However, in the case of the conventional breathable pillow as described above, there is a problem in that it is difficult to provide proper ventilation and the resulting sweat suppression effect because the head is in close contact and sweat is still generated due to scalp heat.

Meanwhile, scent therapy, such as aromatherapy, directly affects human behavior through the olfactory function. Because it is directly connected to the brain, which controls emotions and minds, it has many effects on mental problems related to stress and related physical health problems, maintains skin elasticity, treats skin allergy symptoms, treats inflammation, promotes metabolism, It is reported to have large or small effects on hormonal functions, etc.

It can be said that the most appropriate time to perform scent therapy, such as aromatherapy, during human life, which humans unconsciously practice, is during sleep, and the household item most familiar to human sleep is the pillow that people sleep on with their head on.

As an example of a pillow that enables such aromatherapy, Korea Patent Publication No. 10-2003-0075408 (published on September 26, 2003) contains a plurality of herbal medicine pills formed into a predetermined shape by crushing and mixing a plurality of herbal medicines and embedded in the pillow skin. A pillow that emits a scent characterized by the design is disclosed.

In addition, Korean Patent Registration No. 10-2294227 (announced on August 26, 2021) includes a body composed of an elastic body, with 0.1 to 5% by weight of natural aroma oil and 0.01 to 5% by weight of silver nano component based on 100% by weight of the elastic body. , 0.1 to 10% by weight of anionic raw materials, 0.1 to 10% by weight of far-infrared raw materials, 0.1 to 10% by weight of magnetic raw materials that generate magnetic fields, 0.1 to 1% by weight of dried alder leaves, dried leaves of Cudrania or both powders, and It contains 0.1 to 1% by weight of calcined dolomite powder, and the calcined dolomite powder is obtained by first pulverizing dolomite into a particle size range of 10 to 100 mm, calcining at a temperature of 1000 to 1400 ° C. for 1 to 2 hours, and then grinding the dolomite to a particle size range of 10 to 100 mm. It is manufactured by secondary grinding to 1000 mesh, the anion raw material is germanium, the far-infrared raw material is one or more of Macsumsuk, red clay, jade, tourmaline, and volcanic stone, and the magnetic raw material is ferrite, acicular iron oxide, magnetite, and titanium magnetite. and barium ferrite, wherein the natural aroma oil is at least one of argan oil, jasmine essential oil, lavender essential oil, orange essential oil, osmanthus essential oil, and rose essential oil.

However, in the case of the conventional breathable pillow as described above, there is a problem in that the aroma therapy effect is halved because the aroma cannot be smoothly provided to the user's nose during sleep.
