AI Technical Summary
Existing night caps are difficult to effectively maintain the straightness of the cervical and thoracic vertebrae when changing sleeping positions, which affects sleep quality.
Add sponge-like fillings on the left and right sides of the nightcap, hollow out the areas corresponding to the ears, design openings on the left and right sides, and use a pillow that fits the width of the shoulders to achieve dynamic straightening of the cervical and thoracic vertebrae.
Maintain the straightness of the cervical and thoracic vertebrae in different sleeping positions, ensure unobstructed breathing, and improve sleep quality, especially for the safety and comfort of infants and disabled elderly people in specific sleeping positions.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to bedding, in particular to a combinable nightcap. Background Art
[0002] To improve sleep quality, wearing a suitable night cap is also one of the effective measures. Common night caps mainly play the role of heat preservation and light blocking, but they are ineffective in maintaining the straightness between the cervical and thoracic vertebrae when sleeping in a supine or side-lying position. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to dynamically keep the cervical and thoracic vertebrae straight in different sleeping positions, ensure unobstructed breathing, and guarantee sleep quality.
[0004] The present invention provides a modular nightcap, characterized in that a pocket is added to each of the left and right sides of the nightcap, and the pockets are filled with sponge-like fillers. When lying on one's side, the fillers can elevate the head and keep the cervical and thoracic vertebrae straight.
[0005] The above-mentioned combinable sleeping cap is characterized in that the filling materials on the left and right sides corresponding to the ears are hollowed out, so that the ears are not squeezed in the hollowed-out areas when sleeping on the side.
[0006] The above-mentioned combinable sleeping cap is characterized in that the left and right sides of the cap have holes corresponding to the ears, so that the ears can be exposed and naturally stretch in the hollow areas reserved by the fillings on the left and right sides.
[0007] Wear the above-mentioned nightcap and choose a pillow that suits your shoulder width. By using them together, you can take into account different sleeping positions such as supine and side sleeping, maintain the straightness of the cervical and thoracic vertebrae, keep breathing unobstructed, and ensure sleep quality.
[0008] The thickness and size of the fillers on both sides can be adjusted to suit individual facial shape and the horizontal distance from the face to the shoulders. Customization is possible if necessary, using various processes such as 3D printing and CNC machining.
[0009] If it is used for infants and young children, you can add a pocket and corresponding fillings at the forehead position. In this way, even if they sleep on their stomachs, there is enough space between the mouth and nose and the mattress to prevent suffocation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0010] Figure 1It is a longitudinal cross-sectional schematic diagram of the present invention, wherein: 1-top of the nightcap; 2-nose bridge at the front of the nightcap; 3-back edge of the nightcap; 4-pocket on the right side of the nightcap; 41-filler of the right side pocket of the nightcap; 42-hollow space of the right side filler, used to accommodate the right ear; 43-zipper of the right side pocket; 5-pocket on the left side of the nightcap; 41-filler of the left side pocket of the nightcap; 42-hollow space of the left side filler, used to accommodate the left ear; 43-zipper of the left side pocket. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0011] The nightcap can be made of cotton or a blended fabric that is breathable and has a certain degree of elasticity. During cutting and processing, ear openings are reserved on both sides. The left and right pockets for filling material are cut and sewn according to the shape and volume of the filling material. Zippers are sewn along the front, back, and outer edges of each pocket near the top of the head for easy loading and unloading of the filling material. The filling material is made of natural latex and molded. Standard specifications are available, using molded foam. Custom designs can be 3D printed into a honeycomb structure based on the user's facial shape. The filling material is generally wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, making it easy to load and unload into the left and right pockets. When wearing the above-mentioned nightcap to sleep, it is paired with a traditional flat pillow. When sleeping on your back, only the traditional pillow is used. When sleeping on your side, the filling on both sides of the nightcap is stacked on the traditional pillow to offset the height difference caused by side sleeping, maintaining the level of the cervical and thoracic spine, and promoting unobstructed breathing.
[0012] If the user is an infant sleeping in a large bed, since infants and young children typically roll around in the bed, the included pillow will be ineffective. In this case, the left and right sides of the nightcap can be appropriately widened based on the user's head shape, shoulder width, and back thickness. Pockets and padding can also be added to the back of the head and forehead to ensure that the cervical and thoracic vertebrae remain straight regardless of sleeping position. The pocket and padding on the forehead, in particular, ensure sufficient clearance between the mouth and nose and the mattress when sleeping prone, preventing suffocation.
[0013] For disabled elderly people, there is also a need to turn over regularly on the nursing bed. Wearing the sleep cap of the present invention and matching the supporting pillow can keep the cervical and thoracic vertebrae straight during the turning over process, ensuring a comfortable sleeping posture.
