Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of the necessities of life and in particular to the field of bedding and sleeping arrangements ensuring a relaxed and complete sleep.
  • a deep and restful sleep is conditioned by the position of the body and, above all, of the head which must allow for a relaxation of the cervical muscles, of the intervertebral disks and, at the same time, provide adequate support for the head without risk of deformation of the skull, particularly with newborn babies and very young children (see French patent 2.913.578).
  • the present invention relates to a progressive-comfort orthopedic pillow which adapts to the morphology of each individual and is specifically designed to obtain the appropriate positioning and support of the head, of the neck and of the spinal column.
  • a progressive-comfort pillow which comprises two angular blocks made of flexible material attached in reverse directions by their angular faces, the top part of one being assembled with the bottom part of the other, so that the bottom face and the top face of the pillow are preferentially parallel, and so that one block has a different flexibility compared to the other block in order to obtain a continuous variation of flexibility over the entire width.
  • the materials of different flexibility and firmness can also be of different nature, for example, viscoelastic foam with shape memory, springs, cellular foam, latex or with air or water pockets.
  • This special assembly makes it possible to obtain distinct positions with four types of support and comfort, each of these positions benefitting from many areas providing different support.
  • the thrust exerted differs: a first position where the upper area holding the head is mainly flexible then firm at extreme depth whereas the area of the cervicals is firm in the accommodating area then immediately more flexible, a second position where the upper area holding the head is mainly firm then flexible at extreme depth whereas the area of the cervicals is firm in the accommodating area then immediately more flexible, a third position where the upper area holding the head is substantially even-handed, firm on the surface then flexible at depth whereas the area of the cervicals is mainly firm then flexible at extreme depth, a fourth position where the upper area holding the head is substantially even-handed, flexible on the surface then firm at depth whereas the area of the cervicals is mainly flexible then firm at extreme depth.
  • This pillow makes it possible to ensure the appropriate support for the head, for the vertebrae and intervertebral disks, for the muscles, for the ligaments and for the nerves.
  • the assembly follows the contours of the areas of the body supported and eliminates the points of compression to obtain a complete muscular and vertebral relaxation.
  • the aim of the invention is to best distribute the force exerted in order to avoid over- or under-pressures.
  • the different positions of the pillow make it possible to distribute the pressures to obtain a graded absorption of the head and of the neck.
  • the pillow is not preformed so as not to constrain the head and the cervicals into a given position but, on the contrary, it is the different positions, the areas of support and the material which follow the forms.
  • the pillow can be produced in different thicknesses, so as to free the shoulder in position on the side, which has a direct influence on the pressures of the head and of the cervicals and modifies the enveloping and comfort in position on the back. Furthermore, this pillow can be produced in different dimensions with or without rounded corners.
  • This pillow can also be used for people who have to sleep in a seated position (problems associated with asthma, gastric reflux) or in a comfort position (television, reading) or in different places for any type of use associated with comfort.
  • This pillow is therefore aimed at any individual, as a preventive measure, and at any person who has medical and physiological problems.
  • the desired aim for the user is to have four pillows in one. This makes it possible to find the position best suited to the user's comfort and personal support.
  • the firmnesses and the flexibilities of the two blocks can be varied, thus making it possible to obtain different results. It is also possible to have two blocks that are identical and of the same dimensions or two blocks of different dimensions, one being thicker than the other thus making it possible to adjust the effect of flexibility and firmness.
  • the angular faces can have different forms, they are straight or incurved, one being concave and the other convex, they can have complementary corrugated surfaces, the protruding parts of one interlocking in the hollow parts of the other.
  • the assembly of the attached oblique parts can be produced by a mechanical link of interlocking and/or bonding type.
  • the two blocks can be either of the same form, from a right-angled triangle section or trapezoidal section, or be of different forms by a combination of a triangular section and of a trapezoidal section, the two angular faces occupying the entire projected surface of the pillow or only a part thereof, the trapezoidal block being an angular or triangular trapezoid and the side corresponding to the small height of the trapezoid is zero and then defined by an angle.
  • the pillow can be covered by two slips, a first compressing the two blocks against one another making it possible to ensure, alone or in addition, a possible mechanical assembly without glue.
  • This problem has found a more satisfactory solution according to the invention by having, on a pillow that has specific accommodating areas, an additional area intended to receive the shoulder of the sleeping person, consisting of a notch cut into the two sides of the pillow. This notch is placed at similar or different levels and preferably in the median part of the pillow.
  • a more particular subject of the invention is an enhanced bedding article ensuring a position of support and of comfort in the recumbent position.
  • an ergonomic pillow with shape memory consisting in particular of four distinct parts assembled together, characterized in that it comprises an accommodating area for supporting the cervicals, an accommodating area for absorbing the shoulder in position on the side or flat on the back, an accommodating area for the head and the whole being assembled with different progressive cuts.
  • the document BF 2.778.834 describes, to this end, an ergonomic pillow intended to simultaneously hold the head, the neck and the scapular region in an optimum position of safety and of well-being while sleeping on the back or on the side.
  • the complex pillow comprises a scallop intended to receive the head between wedging cushions and the shoulder of the person sleeping on the side, in another scallop.
  • the neck-head-shoulder assembly is thus supported and raised by virtue of inclined planes, notably in the position on the back.
  • the duly formed assembly is raised by as many thickness shims as are needed to obtain the straightness and the well-being of the vertebrae and of the head, regardless of the position of the person sleeping.
  • the duly constituted assembly follows the contours of the areas of the body supported and eliminates the points of compression, to obtain a satisfactory muscular and vertebral relaxation.
  • the person sleeping whether he or she adopts the position of sleeping on the left side or on the right side or even flat on the back, will obtain therein a support of the head that is even-handedly firm then flexible, or, conversely, by virtue of the texture of the pillow and a thrust and a support of the base of the cervicals, a more or less flexible support depending on which side of the pillow is used.
  • the different progressive cuts of the pillow and the mode of assembly of the different blocks of material such as viscoelastic foam with shape memory, mainly of a foam derived from soya oil, makes it possible to make a choice between a multitude of different densities in order to thus obtain different types of pillow having different characteristics of elasticity or of rigidity such as, for example, flexible/comfort or comfort/tonic.
  • the narrowing made in the cut of the pillow takes the form of an inflection of the section of the surface of the pillow.
  • This recess has the effect of locally reducing the section of the pillow by a few centimeters in its median part, which has the effect of allowing for a different flexibility and elasticity, in order to better adapt to the base of the cervicals and of initially allowing the peak of the movement of the shoulder.
  • the ergonomic pillow according to the invention is formed from two blocks of flexible materials, such as viscoelastic foam or any elastic material, assembled symmetrically face against face to form an assembly of prismatic form, the top and bottom surfaces of which are incurved and the prismatic portion of each side of which is formed, on the one hand, from two elongate sections and, on the other hand, from a portion narrowed in its middle.
  • flexible materials such as viscoelastic foam or any elastic material
  • the ergonomic pillow according to this embodiment has variable thicknesses such as, for example, different heights. It can have parts of varied thicknesses. It also offers the advantage of having many areas of variable elasticity. Thus, the pillow can have, in the top part, two firm areas and, in the bottom part, two flexible areas, or else have, in the top part, two flexible areas and, in the bottom part, two firm areas. Similarly, in each of the parts, there can be a firm area and a flexible area. The objective is therefore to produce an ergonomic pillow that has many areas of different elasticities that can produce a bedding means which is perfectly suited to the anatomy of the person sleeping and also to his or her sleeping habits or to his or her muscular relaxation needs.
  • the two assembled parts comprise varied progressive cuts, the deflection of which contributes to the desired degree of elasticity and flexibility of the assembly, after assembly.
  • the two parts of the pillow may comprise a planar surface and the assembly to be made using incurved surfaces leaving a hollow area between them, in this way ensuring a greater or weaker variable elasticity, depending on the nature of the material used such as foam.
  • the two parts may also be advantageous for the two parts to be a different thickness so as to better adapt to the morphology of the person sleeping.
  • the two parts of the ergonomic pillow according to the present embodiment will have the same thickness.
  • the material of which these two parts are made is preferably a polyurethane foam obtained by polymerizing an isocyanate formed by reaction with soya oil.
  • the polymer obtained can exhibit varying degrees of polymerization, conditioning the elasticity and the flexibility of the material. It is thus possible to obtain blocks of polymers that are very rigid, fairly rigid or flexible.
  • the flexible materials offer the advantage of exhibiting a shape memory.
  • the dimensions of the ergonomic pillow according to this embodiment can also vary.
  • the usual size of the pillow may be 50 to 80 cm long, 25 to 45 cm wide and have a thickness varying from 6 to 15 cm.
  • a preferred dimension is of the order of 55 cm long, 35 cm wide and to 11 cm thick.
  • the pillow can also be made to measure (thickness, width, length) according to the morphological problems of the subject or the dimensions of the bedding means.
  • the incurved form of the assembly thus makes it possible to bring together areas that have different characteristics, ensuring a very firm cervical accommodation with support for the head that is also firm then flexible or else a cervical accommodation that is slightly firm then rapidly flexible while ensuring a support for the head that is evenly firm then flexible. It is also possible to produce a very flexible cervical accommodation and a support for the head that is evenly flexible then firm. It is even possible to produce a cervical accommodation that is slightly flexible then rapidly firm while ensuring a support for the head that is evenly flexible then firm.
  • An ergonomic pillow is thus produced that offers both an area of accommodation for supporting the cervicals, an area of accommodation for absorbing the shoulder surface on the side and on the back whatever the position of the person sleeping and an area of accommodation for the head, by virtue of the way it is cut into two parts, of different consistencies and forms.
  • the ergonomic pillow according to this embodiment is intended to be placed in a single slip of fabric having different color visual markers, or phosphorescent or luminescent visual markers to allow for a suitable placement, with tactile marker, piping with notch or embroidery.
  • FIG. 1 represents a perspective schematic view going from one block to the other according to the invention, consisting of two blocks ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) of angular form attached by their oblique face, forming a common transition surface ( 3 ) which defines a variable thickness over its entire width and which is associated with different flexibilities and firmnesses making it possible to define four distinct areas of comfort A, B, C, D depending on the four possible positions of use of the pillow.
