Description

Pillow with composite support structure

The invention relates to a bedding, especially a pillow with a composite material support structure that can provide proper support for the user's cervical vertebra and maintain the cervical vertebra in a natural and relaxed state.

Sleeping time occupies one-third of people's lives, and pillows play an important role when people sleep. In fact, the main function of the pillow is not to hold the head, its more important function is to provide support for the cervical spine, so that when people lie on the bed, the cervical spine can also be in a natural and relaxed state like when it is upright. Therefore, the support strength and elasticity of the pillow are quite important.

The material of the pillow determines the support strength and elasticity of the pillow. Common materials are feather, cotton, man-made fiber, and even wood. Pillows made of feathers, cotton or man-made fibers, although elastic, cannot provide proper support for the cervical vertebra, and there is a concern of compressing the cervical vertebra. The support provided by the pillow made of wood is strong, but it lacks elasticity and cannot be compressed with the weight of the head, so that the cervical spine is stretched.

It can be seen from this that pillows made of a single material such as feather, cotton, man-made fiber or wood cannot provide proper support for the cervical vertebra due to their supporting strength and elasticity. state.

In order to solve the problem that a pillow made of a single material cannot provide proper support for the cervical vertebra due to its supporting strength and elasticity. The present invention provides a pillow with a composite material support structure, which provides two-stage elastic support with a composite material support structure and a soft layer covering the composite material support structure, which can provide the user with a proper cervical spine when sleeping. The purpose of supporting and keeping the user's cervical spine in a natural and relaxed state.

The pillow with a composite material support structure proposed by this creation to solve the technical problem includes: a composite material support structure, which is made of a composite material, and the composite material support structure has a bending pre-force and is in a resiliently curved shape ; and a soft layer, which has elasticity and covers the composite support structure.

The pillow with a composite material support structure, wherein the composite material support structure is recessed at a position corresponding to a headrest portion, and the composite material support structure faces two sides of the pillow with a composite material support structure from the recessed position. The side gradually expands and surrounds to form a storage space.

The pillow with a composite material support structure includes an audio playback device, and the audio playback device is accommodated in the storage space.

The pillow with the composite material support structure is U-shaped in cross section and includes a first extension arm and a second extension arm extending in the same direction, and an opening on the side.

The pillow with composite material support structure includes a headrest portion and an audio playback device, the headrest portion is recessed in the first extension arm, and the audio playback device is provided in the second extension arm internal.

The pillow with composite material support structure is U-shaped in cross section and includes a first extending arm and a second extending arm extending downward, and an opening at the bottom.

The pillow with the composite material support structure, wherein the composite material support structure includes a carbon fiber composite material layer and two glass fiber composite material layers, and the carbon fiber composite material layer is sandwiched between the two glass fiber composite material layers. between.

The efficacy enhancement that can be obtained by the technical means of this creation is:

1. The pillow with composite material support structure of this creation, which covers the composite material support structure with an elastic soft layer, because the composite material support structure is resiliently curved, this creation can provide two-stage elastic support , when bearing the weight of the user's head, the first is that the soft layer can be easily compressed, and then the The composite material support structure provides sufficient support for the user's cervical spine with bending pre-force. The invention can provide proper support for the cervical vertebra of the user, so that the cervical vertebra of the user can be in a state of natural relaxation when the user is lying on the bed.

2. The audio playback device of this creation is accommodated in the container space surrounded by the composite material support structure. Even if the soft layer and the composite material support structure are compressed due to the weight, the composite material support structure can still avoid the pressure on the user's head. discomfort when touching the audio playback device.

3. The cross section of this creation is U-shaped, and includes first and second extending arms extending in the same direction, and openings on the sides. It also includes a headrest portion recessed in the first extension arm, and an audio playback device arranged inside the second extension arm. The aforementioned features also enable the present invention to avoid discomfort caused by the user's head being pressed against the audio playback device when the soft layer and the composite material support structure are compressed due to weight bearing.

4. The composite support structure of this creation includes two glass fiber composite layers, and a carbon fiber composite layer sandwiched between the two glass fiber composite layers. This creation can cover the broken carbon fiber with two glass fiber composite layers when the carbon fiber of the carbon fiber composite layer is broken, so as to prevent the broken carbon fiber from being exposed.
