Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nursing equipment technology, specifically to a neck pillow with a vibration unit and a control unit. Background Technology

[0002] With the accelerating pace of work and improved living standards, more and more people are spending time on business trips, with airplanes, high-speed trains, and buses being the most common modes of transportation. When traveling by plane, high-speed train, or bus, people need to maintain a restricted sitting posture for extended periods. Due to the fixed curvature of the seats and the cramped space, it is easy for people to experience stiffness and fatigue. Coupled with long business trips or work commitments, it is inevitable to need rest to relieve mental and physical exhaustion. Therefore, U-shaped neck pillows have become a common item for people traveling, in the office, and at home. They provide gentle support for the head and neck, relax neck pressure, relieve fatigue and soreness, and help people rest in a reasonable and comfortable posture.

[0003] Then, ordinary neck pillows can no longer meet the diverse needs of users, so neck pillows have been developed with multiple functions, such as neck massage, reminding users of time, and adjusting the user's head posture. Having these functions requires the neck pillow to be arranged in sections, which can easily lead to problems such as complex structure that is not easy to produce, and excessive weight that is not suitable for long-term wear.

[0004] Patent CN201420443302.1 discloses a neck pillow with a time reminder function, including a neck pillow body, which includes a left pillow body and a right pillow body. The left and right pillow bodies extend to the same side of the neck pillow body to form a space for placing the head. The neck pillow body has at least one inflatable airbag that can be inflated and deflated. The neck pillow body is also equipped with a control device and a power supply. The control device is connected to a timer, a vibration device, and a display device. The power supply is connected to and powers the control device, the timer, the vibration device, and the display device. The control device is also connected to a device switch. The drawback of this design is that the vibration device, the control device, and the timer are all located in the inner ring of the neck pillow, which is relatively heavy. The device switch and the display device are located at the end of the neck pillow, and the overall center of gravity is located at the back of the neck. When the user wears it, it is easy for the neck pillow to fall behind the neck, which is not an ergonomic design.

[0005] Patent CN202322526172.X discloses a neck pillow, which includes: a head contact pillow body that surrounds and forms a neck-accommodating space and includes filling material; and a shoulder contact airbag that surrounds and forms the neck-accommodating space and is connected to the head contact pillow body. Because of the shoulder contact airbag, inflating it can stretch the neck and shoulders. Since the head contact pillow body includes filling material, which is generally soft or easily deformable, the user's head, especially the jaw, experiences appropriate pressure during the neck-stretching process, without significant pressure, thus improving user comfort. However, this design has a drawback: the placement of the components on the neck pillow is unreasonable. Because the massage head protrudes towards the neck relative to the heating element, the heating element is difficult to press against or fit the back of the neck. It is also difficult for the back of the user's neck to fit against the center of the inner ring of the neck pillow, and prolonged contact with the massage head does not provide sufficient comfort.

[0006] In summary, existing multifunctional neck pillows have many design problems: complex structure, unreasonable weight distribution, and uncomfortable wearing. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a neck pillow with a vibration unit and a control unit, which solves the problems of complex structure, unreasonable weight distribution, and uncomfortable wearing of existing multi-functional neck pillows. Through reasonable partitioning layout, it achieves functional integration while improving the practicality and comfort of the neck pillow.

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides the following technical solution: a neck pillow with a vibration unit and a control unit, comprising a pillow body, an inflation assembly, and a power source. The pillow body includes an inner ring and an outer ring. The vibration unit is located in the middle of the inner ring, and the control unit is located in the middle of the outer ring. The vibration unit contains a plurality of vibration motors, and the control unit contains a control valve for the inflation assembly. The control unit also includes a first channel, and the pillow body includes a second channel. The first channel and the second channel are connected.

[0009] In one embodiment, a first storage portion and a second storage portion are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the outer ring portion, and the two are symmetrically arranged with respect to the center of the pillow body.

[0010] In one embodiment, the power source further includes a wire, and the vibration unit includes a third channel. The wire originates from the second placement part, enters the control unit along the outer ring part, passes through the first channel, the second channel, and the third channel, and enters the vibration unit to connect with the vibration motor.

[0011] In one embodiment, the vibration unit and the control unit are located together on the center line of the pillow body.

[0012] In one embodiment, the inflation assembly includes an air pump fixed inside the first storage compartment; and the first storage compartment includes a first lower cover and a first upper cover.

[0013] In one embodiment, the air pump is connected to the power source.

[0014] In one embodiment, the power source controls the air pump to inflate and deflate the first airbag and the second airbag.

[0015] In one embodiment, the power source includes a battery and a circuit board, which are disposed within the second storage compartment; and the second storage compartment includes a second upper cover and a second lower cover.

[0016] In one embodiment, the vibration unit is provided with two symmetrically arranged vibration motors, and the vibration motors are eccentric vibration motors.

[0017] In one embodiment, the inflation assembly further includes a first airbag and a second airbag; and both the first airbag and the second airbag are double-layered airbags.

[0018] In one embodiment, when the first or second airbag is inflated, its direction of movement is upward or obliquely upward, supporting the user's chin and supporting the deflected head to keep it upright.

[0019] In one embodiment, the vibration unit includes an arc-shaped housing and a cover, the arc-shaped housing including at least one arc-shaped surface, the two ends of which are tangent to the inner ring portion.

[0020] In one embodiment, a plurality of buttons are arranged on the second upper cover, the buttons being used to switch neck pillow modes, the neck pillow including at least a vibration mode and an inflation mode.

[0021] In one embodiment, the neck pillow includes a massage mode, and the power source controls the vibration unit to generate vibration.

[0022] In one embodiment, the neck pillow further includes a first judgment unit, which includes a microphone sensor and a data acquisition unit. When the first judgment unit determines that the user is snoring, the control system drives the vibration unit to vibrate and / or drives the air pump to inflate or deflate the first airbag or the second airbag.

[0023] In one embodiment, the neck pillow further includes a second judgment unit, which includes a pressure sensor disposed in the inner ring; and when the user's head turns to the left or right, the pressure sensor is subjected to pressure, and the power source drives the air pump to inflate the pressurized airbag element.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0025] In existing technologies, some neck pillows concentrate multiple functional components in the inner ring, resulting in excessive weight in that area and insufficient weight at the two free ends. This leads to a rearward shift of the overall center of gravity, making the pillow prone to falling behind the neck during wear, which is not ergonomic. Furthermore, the unreasonable layout of some neck pillow components negatively impacts the user experience. This application solves these problems by placing the vibration unit in the center of the inner ring and the control unit in the center of the outer ring. Furthermore, the power source, air pump, and other components are rationally distributed within the first and second storage sections, resulting in a more even weight distribution. This avoids discomfort caused by a shifted center of gravity, enhances wearing stability, conforms to ergonomic design, and improves the user's wearing experience.

[0026] Unlike existing technologies, the neck pillow of this application integrates vibration massage and inflatable support functions. The mode can be easily switched via the button on the second top cover to meet the user's needs in different scenarios. At the same time, the vibration function can remind the user to wake up from sleep, allowing the user to change head position and alleviate snoring. In addition, the connection channels between the components are reasonably designed. The cooperation of the first, second, and third channels ensures that the vibration motor can receive stable power support. Furthermore, this arrangement facilitates the wiring layout and maintenance inside the neck pillow.

[0027] Unlike existing technologies, the dual-layer airbags in this application provide better support and comfort. The eccentric vibration motor inside the vibration chamber effectively massages neck muscles and relieves fatigue. The arc-shaped vibration chamber design conforms to the curve of the human neck, further enhancing the comfort of the neck pillow. On the other hand, when the dual-layer airbags provide support, the head rotates, the airway opens, and snoring stops or alleviates.

[0028] The embodiments of this application can achieve other advantageous technical effects not listed one by one. These other technical effects may be partially described below and can be expected and understood by those skilled in the art after reading this application. Attached Figure Description
