Benefits of technology

[0016]The pillow of the present invention evenly supports the occipital by accommodating the occipital in the circular recess and the inner recess, so that the occipital does not shift even when the head is applied by an exterior force. The circular recess and the inner recess share the stress applied to the occipital which is then protected without compression.
[0037]The pillow has multiple passages defined through the top surface and the underside thereof to reduce the pressure of the head and the neck so as to make the user to sleep quickly and comfortably.

Problems solved by technology

The human skull is one of the delicate portions of the body and related to different problems and most of the problems are caused by improper poses when sleeping.
The pathological changes in the neck relate the communication of blood and nerves, and the head may not function well due to the pathological changes in the neck.
The bad communication of blood in the head can seriously affect one's health in the forms of illness, aging, and brain passivation.
Therefore, when the neck is not properly supported, the whole body may feel uncomfortable.
If the occipital bone is compressed to produce a displacement, the corresponding sacrum and human organs will cause problems including back pains, discomforts and frequent illness.
Once if the occipital bone and sacrum are compressed in an abnormal situation, substantial damages to the aforementioned human body systems are bound to happen.
Besides, it is difficult to make every pillow to be a custom-made pillow which is expensive and cannot be acceptable for most of the users.
The conventional pillow can only have adjustment in one dimension which is adjusted according to the curvature of the neck, but cannot meet the shape and curvature of the head (top and bottom, left and right, and front and back).
The conventional pillow cannot provide a balanced support to the occipital and the bones of the head are compressed improperly.
It is proved that it may cause dangerous situation with the pose of facing downward when sleeping so that an ideal pillow should evenly support the back of the head so that the two slits on two sides of the occipital are even.
If the slits are too wide, the user may have inhaling problems and if the slits are too narrow, the user may have exhaling problems.
The conventional pillows do not reach such standards.

Embodiment Construction

[0053]Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the balance pillow of the present invention is made by emulsion or foam material to form an integral body 1 has a wave-shaped top surface 11, and a first protrusion 12 and a second protrusion 13 respectively and transversely protrude from the top surface 11. A recessed area 14 is defined between the first and second protrusions 12, 13. The first protrusion 12 is higher than the second protrusion 13. The first protrusion 12 has an inner recessed area 16 which is shaped to be correspondent to the curvature of the user's neck. A circular recess 17 is defined between the first and second protrusions 12, 13 and the recessed area 14. The circular recess 17 is shaped to be correspondent to the curvature of the user's head. An inner recess 15 is defined in the inner end of the circular recess 17 and smaller than the occipital “A1” of the user's skull “A”. The inner recess 15 is substantially a triangular recess. The circular recess 17 and the inner recess 1...

Abstract

A balance pillow includes a body having a wave-shaped top surface and a first protrusion and a second protrusion transversely protrude from the top surface. A recessed area is defined between the first and second protrusions, and the first protrusion is higher than the second protrusion. The first protrusion has an inner recessed area which is shaped to be correspondent to the curvature of a user's neck. A circular recess is defined between the first and second protrusions and the recessed area. The circular recess is shaped to be correspondent to the curvature of a user's head. An inner recess is defined in the inner end of the circular recess and smaller than an occipital of a skull. The balance pillow supports evenly occipital which is engaged with the inner recess.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a balance pillow, and more particularly, to a pillow which has a circular recess, an inner recess, an inner recessed area for being matched with the shape of the user's head and neck. The inner recess is less than the occipital of the user. The skull, the occipital and the neck are well supported.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The human skull is one of the delicate portions of the body and related to different problems and most of the problems are caused by improper poses when sleeping. The pathological changes in the neck relate the communication of blood and nerves, and the head may not function well due to the pathological changes in the neck. The bad communication of blood in the head can seriously affect one's health in the forms of illness, aging, and brain passivation. The human body is a symmetric design, the head is correspondent to the hip portion and the cervical vertebra is correspondent to the lumber. Theref...
