a pillow that can help the head relax

The present invention is a pillow capable of assisting the relaxation of the head, in particular, an abutment portion is protruded on the pillow to abut the user when the user rests on the pillow. On the occipital bone, to promote a new structure of cerebrospinal fluid circulation.

In recent years, with the development of information dissemination and the rapid changes of society, modern people's life rhythm and pace are getting faster and faster, and the corresponding work pressure is getting bigger and bigger. If you can't relax your body and emotion properly, it is easy to cause Physiological or psychological diseases, although many people will achieve relaxation through massage or massage, however, because massage massage involves the acupuncture points and joints of the human body, it can only be carried out by experienced professionals. In recent years, various health care equipment (such as massage chairs) have appeared in the market, so that ordinary consumers can relax and massage at home, anytime, anywhere, but because the price of such health care equipment is mostly high, it is still not popular. All the public.

In fact, not all massage techniques require a wealth of medical knowledge to perform. At present, after years of research and clinical testing, the academic community has developed Craniosacral Therapy (CST), which is characterized by: The finger presses the patient's head with a force of less than five grams to help increase balance of body movements and normal fluid flow. Because the use of cranial sinus therapy does not require deep medical knowledge, the learning threshold is low, suitable for general public learning, and because the curative force of cranial sinus therapy is only the weight of one coin (five grams), even if the pressing position is slightly There are deviations and no sequelae.

The idea of cranial sinus therapy dates back to the early 20th century, when an American orthopaedic surgeon, Dr. William Sutherland, studied the human bones and found that there was a little activity between the bones that make up the skull, rather than Traditional medicine recognizes the state of "completely immobile", so Dr. William Sutherland has spent more than 20 years researching and recording different forces. The road is applied to different parts of the skull and develops a system of examination and treatment of the skull. Well, in the 1970s, a neurosurgeon, Dr. John E. Upledger, was often involved in brain surgery for his work, and he found an interesting phenomenon in his many years of surgical experience. "The head and the dura mater will fluctuate with the pulsation of the cerebrospinal fluid circulation." He also found: "Puncture of certain parts of the human body can not only induce this subtle pulsation, but if the palpation hand is added The extremely light force (about 5 grams) can also be used to adjust the cerebrospinal fluid hydraulic pressure to promote health.

After decades of research, Dr. Yupuzhe developed the aforementioned cranial sinus therapy. The principle is as follows: The well-known human rhythm system has two types: heartbeat pulse and respiratory rhythm. (Craniosacral system) is another newly discovered rhythm system. The cranial recommendation system contains meningeal tissue and cerebrospinal fluid that is used to protect the brain and spinal cord. It ranges from the skull, face and mouth to form the entire cranium and extends down to the sacral or coccyx. Because the cranial recommendation system itself affects the development and function of the brain and spinal cord, as long as the system is unbalanced or hindered, there may be some sensation, movement or nervous system obstacles. Cranial sinus therapy is a treatment that assists in the self-healing ability of the innate body. Usually, the patient is placed on the treatment bed in a lying or sitting position, and the therapist gently puts the hand on the patient and listens to the body with the hand. The internal rhythm is a gentle, unarmed systemic examination and treatment that has an improved effect on many systems of the body. Whether used alone or in parallel with other therapies, it has a good effect on promoting the body's function. effect.

Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the skull of the human body is composed of multiple bones, including Frontal bone, Sphenoid bone, Parietal bone, and Occipital. Bone) and sacral TB (Temporal bone), etc. (only the key parts directly related to cranial sinus therapy are described here). In the case of cranial sacral therapy, the therapist will first support the patient's parietal bone PB with the hand. At this time, the mastoid TB1 on the tibia TB needs to be relaxed, and then press the position of the patient's occipital bone OB adjacent to the external occipital protuberance (EOP) and the outer occipital ridge (EOC). The site must not cross the styloid OB1 of the occipital bone OB, which is the part of the Occipitomastoid Suture. At this time, the gap between the parietal bones PB will slightly relax outward, and the occipital bone OB will be pressed due to being pressed. Limited mobility, resulting in a hydraulic rise in the cerebrospinal fluid in the occipital OB, towards the seam The direction of the gap is to find a catharsis path to promote the flow and exchange of cerebrospinal fluid in the skull and promote the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid. Cranial sinus therapy can improve the human body's environment, so that the central nervous system can return to the best operating conditions and performance, and can also enhance personal comfort, from the strengthening of the immune system to the promotion of interpersonal relationships.

However, since most of the current cranial sinus therapy is performed by professionals (physicians, physiotherapists, functional therapists, chiropractors, etc.), the general public is rarely known, and in the absence of universalization, each time The treatment is not costly. For this reason, the inventor thought, whether the principle of cranial sinus therapy can be used to design a pillow, so that the general public can understand the efficacy of the cranial sinus therapy to enhance the public. With regard to the cognition and acceptance of cranial sinus therapy, it has promoted the research and development of Dr. Yupuzhe for many years. Therefore, how to design a pillow with a new structure can easily help the user to experience the pillow. The effect of head relaxation is an important issue that the present invention is intended to solve here.

An object of the present invention is to provide a pillow capable of assisting the relaxation of the head, the pillow being made of an elastic material, comprising a support body, two contact portions and an abutting portion; the top of the support body is used for Supporting a neck of a user lying on the back, the bottom of the support body is concavely provided with a recess adjacent to the two corresponding ends and corresponding to the position of the tibia of the user's head, respectively, a recessed portion is provided Corresponding to the tibia of the user's skull; one end of the contact portions respectively engages with the corresponding ends of the support body, and the other end of the contact portion can respectively correspond to the two parietal bones of the user's head; the abutting portion Extending from one side of the support body, and the position is between the contact portions to lie on the user, and the neck and the head respectively abut the support body and the contacts In the case of the upper part, the tibia of the user's head can be maintained at a position corresponding to the recesses, and the support body can be bent and deformed toward the groove due to the weight of the neck of the user, so that the contact The other end of the department can face the user's head The top bone direction is lifted to support the top bone of the user's head, and at the same time, the free end of the abutting portion can be tilted toward the occipital trochanter and the occipital ridge on the user's head occipital bone, Resist the user's occipital bone. In this way, the user's skull gap will be able to relax slightly outward to promote the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid.

Another object of the present invention is that the bottom of the support body is adjacent to the body of the user and a portion corresponding to the groove is formed with a first inclined surface that rests on the neck of the user. When the support body is mounted, the support body can be firmly flattened to a plane (such as a bed) by the first inclined surface to form a fulcrum, thereby causing the contact portion and the abutting portion to warp and deform. The resulting torque can be directed more precisely toward the user's parietal and occipital bones, respectively, and sufficient support can be applied to the parietal and occipital bones, respectively.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a second inclined surface at the top of the abutting portion, so that the abutting portion abuts against the occipital bone of the user when the supporting body is warped and deformed. The abutment portion can pass through the second inclined surface and is flat and abuts against a portion of the user's head corresponding to the outer trochanter.

For the sake of the review, the reviewer can further understand and understand the technical means, structural features and purposes of the present invention.

The present invention is a pillow capable of assisting the relaxation of the head. Referring to Figure 3, in a first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pillow 3 is generally U-shaped in configuration, and the interior thereof is elastic. The material is composed of four parts, such as a supporting body 31, two contact portions 32 and an abutting portion 33. The principle of the present invention is derived from cranial sinus therapy, which can achieve relaxation of head pressure and promote cerebrospinal fluid. The effect of the cycle is to solve the problem that the user must experience the effect of the cranial sinus therapy by the professional rehabilitation teacher.

Referring to Figures 3-6, the top of the support body 31 is used to support a The neck of the user lying on the back is recessed with a recess 310 in the middle of the top portion (in the embodiment, the recess 310 extends through the bottom of the support body 31 at the bottom and is slightly square, however, The configuration of the recess 310 is not limited to the fourth figure. The position of the support body 31 adjacent to the two corresponding ends is respectively provided with a recess 311, and the position of the recess 311 corresponds to the tibia of the user's head. The width W between the depressed portions is approximately between 14 and 20 cm, which can be adjusted according to different users, so that when the user rests on the pillow 3, the user's tibia (ie, corresponds to the double The position of the ear can be accommodated in the recesses 311.

One end of the contact portion 32 is respectively connected to the two corresponding ends of the support body 31, and is maintained at a first predetermined interval D1 therebetween, and the other end of the contact portions 32 extends away from the support body 31. And maintaining a second predetermined spacing D2 between each other, the second predetermined spacing D2 being less than the first predetermined spacing D1, such that the configuration of the contact portions 32 respectively correspond to the parietal bone of the user's head, and supported The head of the user.

Referring to FIGS. 3 and 6, the abutting portion 33 extends from one side of the support body 31 and is located between the contact portions 32. The user lies up to the side. In the case of the pillow 3, the neck and the head of the user U will respectively rest on the support body 31 and the contact portions 32. At this time, the humerus of the user U will remain in correspondence with the depressions. The position of the portion 311 is such that the tibia is not pressed by the support body 31. Referring to the figures 3, 4, 6 and 7A, the support body 31 can be bent downward and deformed toward the groove 310 due to the weight of the neck of the user U, thereby correspondingly corresponding to the support body 31. The end is bent upwardly and deformably, and the other end of the contact portion 32 is tilted toward the parietal bone of the head of the user U to support the parietal bone of the head of the user U, thereby forming the figure 7B. State.

Since the portion of the support body 31 corresponding to the groove 310 can abut against a plane (ie, a bed) of the pillow 3 and form a fulcrum, the abutting portion 33 is away from the support body 31 at this time. One of the free ends will be able to tilt toward the occipital bone of the user U to abut against the occipital region of the occipital bone. Thus, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 7B, when the user U is lying on his back and his neck and head pillow are resting on the pillow 3, the tibial TB system remains relaxed on the depressed portion 311. The top bone PB pillow rests on the contact portion 32, so that the abutment portion 33 can be abutted and supported on the occipital bone OB adjacent to the occipital trochanter and the occipital ridge. In the case of the position, the supporting force of the abutting portion 33 will be able to the top bone of the user U. The PB generates an outward (ie, the upper left direction in FIG. 7B) moment, and the portion of the contact portion 32 that supports the user's parietal bone PB can also jointly generate an outward component moment to assist the user. The gap between the skull of U (ie, between the parietal and parietal bones, between the parietal bone and the occipital bone) can be slightly outwardly relaxed to reduce and adjust the internal stress of the user's U head (ie, the hydraulic pressure of the cerebrospinal fluid in the skull). Promote the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid.

In addition, in the embodiment, the depth D3 of the groove 310 is between 1 and 5 cm, and the bottom of the support body 31 is adjacent to the U of the user. A first inclined surface 312 is formed on the body and the portion corresponding to the groove 310. The support body 31 can be supported by the first inclined surface 312 when the neck of the user U rests on the support body 31. , the surface of the support body 31 is adjacent to the other side of the user to increase the degree of tilt deformation, and the contact portion 32 and the The moment generated by the warping deformation of the abutting portion 33 can be more precisely directed toward the parietal bone PB of the user U and the extra-occipital trochanter, respectively, and sufficient supporting force can be applied to the parietal bone PB and the occipital bone OB, respectively. In addition, a second inclined surface 331 is disposed on the top of the abutting portion 33, and the length L of the abutting portion 33 extending from one side of the supporting body 31 is between 1 and 4 cm. When the abutting portion 33 is warped and deformed to the user's occipital bone OB, the abutting portion 33 can pass through the second inclined surface 331 and is flat like a therapist's finger. Abutting on the user's head adjacent to the extra-occipital esophageal EOP and the occipital ridge EOC (the abutment position cannot cross the styloid OB1 of the occipital bone OB, ie, the occipital foramen OS).

The pillow of the present invention can be customized according to the user's body type (such as height, head shape, body), including a second predetermined distance D2 between the other ends of the contact portions 32, and the abutting portion 33. The extension length L and the depth D3 of the groove. In this embodiment, the pillow 3 further includes a fastening tape 34. The two ends of the fastening tape 34 can be movably connected to the other ends of the contact portions 32 respectively (for example, through the devil felt or the wearing). In the buckle of the contact portion 32, the user can adjust the length of the second predetermined distance D2 on the contact portions 32 through the adhesive strip 34, for example, a patient with a sharp head shape, The second predetermined spacing D2 needs to be small to enable the contact portions 32 to support the user's parietal bone PB. Conversely, for patients with a flat head shape, the second predetermined spacing D2 needs to be set to be larger. Support the parietal bone PB without pressing too tight.

In particular, the recess 311 is used in the foregoing embodiment. The hole is a circular hole, so that when the user rests on the pillow 3, the user's tibia TB will remain on the recess 311 without contacting the surface of the support body 31. The configuration of the recessed portion 311 is not a line, and since in actual application, in order to ensure the appearance of the pillow 3, the manufacturer will put a cloth layer on the pillow 3, that is, When the user is resting, the tibia TB may contact the outermost layer of the pillow 3, but since the recess 311 is located corresponding to the position of the tibia TB, the user's tibia can still remain relaxed. The state does not affect the use of the pillow 3.

The above description is only a few preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the technical features of the present invention are not limited thereto, and those skilled in the relevant art can easily think about it after considering the technical content of the present invention. Modifications should not depart from the scope of protection of the present invention.
