[0021] Explanation of reference numerals in the attached drawings: First inflatable headrest 1, Second inflatable headrest 2, Third inflatable headrest 3, Fourth inflatable headrest 4, Fifth inflatable headrest 5. Detailed Implementation

[0022] See Figures 1-5 As shown, the technical solution adopted in this specific embodiment is as follows: It includes a first inflatable headrest 1, a second inflatable headrest 2, a third inflatable headrest 3, a fourth inflatable headrest 4, and a fifth inflatable headrest 5. Each of the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth inflatable headrests has an internal airbag. Adjacent headrests are connected by a connecting edge 8, and a through-ventilation channel 9 connects the two adjacent headrests. In this embodiment, five sets of inflatable headrests are connected to form a rollable pillow. All headrests have internal airbags. When not inflated, all headrests can be rolled up into a small volume and placed in a matching storage device. The storage device contains... This small air pump is easy to use. Simply remove the pillow and inflate the headrests using the pump. Air enters each headrest through the air channels to complete the inflation. Because adjacent headrests are connected at flexible angles, they can better fit the contact points during use. For example, when placed around the neck, the headrest positions can be adjusted for optimal comfort. Adjusting the headrests to a tighter position provides head support and can even have a traction therapy effect. Alternatively, all headrests can be laid flat and used like regular pillows. When used, the headrests bend inwards under pressure, conforming to the neck and head for support and a better user experience.

[0023] More specifically, the second inflatable headrest 2 is provided with one headrest, and the fourth inflatable headrest 4 is provided with two headrests. The second inflatable headrest 2 and the fourth inflatable headrest 4 have the same structure, and the horizontal setting position of the second inflatable headrest and the fourth inflatable headrest is the same as that of the first inflatable headrest and the fifth inflatable headrest.

[0024] More specifically, the third inflatable headrest 3 is provided with three headrests. The two headrests adjacent to the second inflatable headrest 2 and the fourth inflatable headrest 4 are horizontally positioned one level lower than the second inflatable headrest 2 and the fourth inflatable headrest 4. The middle headrest is horizontally positioned one level lower than the two side headrests. Moreover, the structure of the third inflatable headrest 3 is the same as that of the second inflatable headrest 2 and the fourth inflatable headrest 4. In this embodiment, the third inflatable headrest is composed of three headrests positioned at different horizontal heights, causing the middle of the pillow to sink and form a shallow U-shaped structure. When the pillow is placed around the neck, the lowest headrest can correspond to the chin position, making it less likely to interfere with the chin during use, resulting in a more comfortable user experience.

[0025] More specifically, the first inflatable headrest 1 is provided with an inflation hole 111, and an inflation plug 10 is provided on the inflation hole 111. The inflation plug 10 includes a face cover 101 and a base 102. The base 102 is fixed to the inflation hole 111 and is sealed. The face cover 101 is connected to the base 102 through a flexible connecting piece. A plug 103 is provided on the side of the face cover 101 facing the base 102. The plug 103 matches the inflation hole 111. In this embodiment, an inflation hole is provided on the first inflatable headrest, and an inflation plug is provided as a sealing structure for the inflation hole. The plug can be inserted into the inflation hole to seal it, and inflation can be performed by opening the plug. It is convenient to use, and the face cover and the base are connected by a flexible connecting piece and will not fall off.

[0026] More specifically, the face cover 101 is provided with an ear 104 on one side, which makes it easy to open the face cover for inflation or deflation.

[0027] More specifically, the first inflatable headrest 1 has a pull tab 6 on one side, and a hook and loop fastener male face 11 on the back of the pull tab 6. The fifth inflatable headrest 5 has a recessed hook and loop fastener groove 51 on the front, and a hook and loop fastener female face 7 is provided in the hook and loop fastener groove 51. In this embodiment, the first inflatable headrest and the fifth inflatable headrest are connected by hook and loop fastener. When connecting, the hook and loop fastener male face and the hook and loop fastener female face are pressed and glued together. In another embodiment, a buckle structure can also be used for connection. Different connection methods have different user experiences, and users can choose according to their preferences.

[0028] More specifically, the length of the male side 11 of the hook and loop fastener is greater than the length of the female side 7 of the hook and loop fastener. Since the length of each headrest is fixed, the overall inner diameter of the first inflatable headrest and the fifth inflatable headrest can be adjusted by adjusting the adhesion length between the male and female sides of the hook and loop fastener, thus making it suitable for different users and more user-friendly.

[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When in use, take the headrest out of the storage device, which is equipped with a small air pump. Unfold the headrest and open the cover 101 on the first inflatable headrest 1. Separate the plug 103 from the air hole 111. Use the air pump connected to the air hole 111 to inflate the headrest. After inflation, wrap the headrest around the neck. Turn the lowest part of the third inflatable headrest 3 to the chin direction. Adhere the male side 11 of the Velcro on the first inflatable headrest 1 to the female side 7 of the Velcro on the fifth inflatable headrest 5. The headrest can then be used normally. This is one way to use the headrest. Alternatively, you can simply lay the headrest flat and lie down to use it.

[0030] The above description is only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and is not intended to limit it. Any other modifications or equivalent substitutions made by those skilled in the art to the technical solution of this utility model, as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
