Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of household products, and in particular to a combination neck pillow. [Background technology]

[0002] A neck pillow is a pillow that supports the natural physiological curvature of the human neck, providing sufficient support for the head and neck and protecting the health of the cervical spine.

[0003] The applicant has found that the conventional techniques have at least the following technical problems.

[0004] Current neck pillow designs are often one-piece structures with fixed shapes and heights, and lack adjustment capabilities, making it difficult to accommodate various sleeping positions of users (e.g., side sleeping, back sleeping, stomach sleeping, etc.). For example, when sleeping on your side or stomach, traditional neck pillows have a curved design on the top, which can cause the face and ears to come into contact with the pillow for a long time, resulting in pressure and discomfort or pain. When sleeping on your back, existing neck pillows cannot adequately support the back of the head. If the pillow does not provide sufficient support, the head will tilt back too much, and if the pillow provides too much support, the head will tilt forward, resulting in poor comfort. Taking this into consideration, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a combination neck pillow that solves the technical problems of the conventional neck pillows in the prior art, which have design defects, most of which are one-piece structures, have fixed shapes and heights, and are not adjustable, and cannot accommodate the various sleeping positions of users. Many technical effects of the preferred technical solutions in many technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail later. [Means for solving the problem]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0018] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below. It is clear that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and are not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments that a person skilled in the art can obtain without performing creative labor belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0019] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the present invention provides a combination neck pillow, which includes a first pillow body 1, a second pillow body 2, and a third pillow body 3, the second pillow body 2 and the third pillow body 3 are located above the first pillow body 1 and are respectively connected to the first pillow body 1 by removable connecting components, the opposing sides of the second pillow body 2 and the third pillow body 3 respectively form a first arc-shaped groove 21 and a second arc-shaped groove 31 which are recessed outward to fit the curvature of the neck of the human body, and both the first arc-shaped groove 21 and the second arc-shaped groove 31 define a relaxation space.

[0020] The combination neck pillow is a detachably connected first pillow body 1, second pillow body 2, and third pillow body 3, and the user can adjust the height and shape of the neck pillow by combining or using each pillow body separately according to the needs of use. In addition, the first arc-shaped groove 21 and the second arc-shaped groove 31 stably support the neck and define a relaxation space to accommodate the face, ears, and posterior brain of the user, effectively dispersing and relieving the pressure received by the face, ears, and posterior brain during sleep, thereby accommodating various sleeping positions of the user.

[0021] For example, when sleeping on one's side or stomach, the second pillow body 2 and the third pillow body 3 each stably support the head and neck, while the face and ears are within the relaxation space, preventing the face and ears from being directly compressed. In this way, discomfort and pain caused by long periods of sleeping on one's side or stomach are avoided, and comfort is improved when sleeping on one's side or stomach.

[0022] Similarly, when sleeping on one's back, the second pillow body 2 and the third pillow body 3 support the head and neck more stably, and since the posterior brain region is within the relaxation space, the head is prevented from tilting backward or forward excessively when support is inadequate, improving comfort when sleeping on one's back.

[0023] Furthermore, the first pillow body 1 has a rectangular parallelepiped structure that serves as the basis for support. The second pillow body 2 and the third pillow body 3 have a rectangular parallelepiped structure that is symmetrical with respect to the center line of the first pillow body 1, and their width is less than half the width of the first pillow body 1. The opposing sides of the second pillow body 2 and the third pillow body 3 are recessed outward along the short direction of the first pillow body 1 to form a first arc-shaped groove 21 and a second arc-shaped groove 31, respectively, which fit more closely to the curvature of the neck of the human body, and can effectively support the neck and reduce pressure on the head, especially when sleeping on one's side or stomach.
