Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bedding, specifically to a pillow core and a pillow. Background Technology
[0002] Existing pillows include a pillow core and a cover that encloses the pillow core. Patent publication number CN222443741U discloses a pillow with built-in support strips. Because the support strips are located in the middle of the pillow, the front wall and top surface of the pillow are relatively soft, which fails to provide effective support for the user's shoulders and neck, affecting the user experience. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a pillow core and pillow with a shoulder and neck support strip. The shoulder and neck support strip is located between the front of the top layer and the bottom layer, which can provide support for the user's shoulders and neck at the same time, effectively improving the user experience.
[0004] This invention is achieved through the following method: a pillow core with a neck and shoulder support strip, comprising a core body, characterized in that the core body includes a vertically stacked top layer, a neck and shoulder support strip, and a bottom layer, wherein the neck and shoulder support strip is disposed between the front portions of the top and bottom layers, and the front wall of the neck and shoulder support strip is exposed on the front wall of the core body, forming a shoulder support surface. By distributing the neck and shoulder support strip between the front portions of the top and bottom layers, and exposing its front wall to the front wall of the core body, the neck and shoulder support strip can provide contact support to the user's neck and shoulders through its top surface and front wall respectively, effectively improving user comfort.
[0005] Preferably, the thickness of the shoulder and neck support strip gradually decreases from front to back, so that the hardness of adjacent areas of the core gradually changes from front to back. The extent of support improvement can be adjusted by adjusting the thickness of the shoulder and neck support strip. The front part of the shoulder and neck support strip has a larger thickness to effectively improve support, while the rear part has a smaller thickness to facilitate a smooth connection with the support of the back part of the pillow core, preventing a foreign body sensation caused by excessive differences in support between adjacent areas of the pillow core from front to back.
[0006] Preferably, the shoulder and neck support strip is long and extends horizontally through the core, so that the shoulder support surface can be horizontally installed on the front wall of the pillow core. This ensures that the user can get effective support when turning over or moving to any section of the front of the pillow core, and also facilitates processing and assembly.
[0007] Preferably, the vertical projection contours of the top layer and the bottom layer are the same, which not only ensures that the top layer and the bottom layer have clamping and positioning shoulder and neck support strips, but also facilitates alignment and stacking assembly.
[0008] Preferably, the front-to-back vertical cross-section of the shoulder and neck support strip is an arc shape with the middle section bulging upwards. The shoulder and neck support strip conforms to the surface of the user's neck by bulging upwards, thereby increasing the contact area and improving the reliability and comfort of support.
[0009] Preferably, the front of the bottom edge of the top layer is concave upwards and matches and adheres to the top surface of the shoulder and neck support strip, while the front of the top edge of the bottom layer is convex upwards and matches and adheres to the bottom surface of the shoulder and neck support strip. The top layer, shoulder and neck support strip, and bottom layer are adhered and stacked together and firmly bonded to form an integral structure, ensuring that the relative positions of the top layer, shoulder and neck support strip, and bottom layer are fixed and will not shift.
[0010] Preferably, the rear part of the bottom surface of the top layer bulges downward and fits tightly against the rear part of the top surface of the bottom layer, which is concave downward. The top layer and the bottom layer are processed and stacked independently, which facilitates both mass production and assembly, and improves the reliability of the support by eliminating the gap between them.
[0011] Preferably, the front wall of the core is inclined backward from bottom to top, and the front wall of the shoulder and neck support strip is located on the upper part of the front wall of the core, and is flush with the front walls of the top and bottom layers. The core provides effective support by matching and conforming to the user's shoulders and neck through the inclined front wall.
[0012] Preferably, the top layer, shoulder and neck support strip, and bottom layer are made of sponge material with the same density. By setting the sponge with the same density, the weight of each area of the core is the same, thereby ensuring that the center of gravity is located in the center of the core, effectively improving the texture, and also facilitating the acquisition of raw materials and reducing costs.
[0013] Preferably, the top layer is made of slow-rebound foam, the neck and shoulder support strip is made of high-rebound foam, and the bottom layer is made of gel-particle foam. The top layer, neck and shoulder support strip, and bottom layer use different types of foam to achieve corresponding functions. The top layer, using slow-rebound foam, can conform to the user's neck and shoulder surface through deformation and slow rebound; the neck and shoulder support strip, using high-rebound foam, provides effective support for the user's neck and shoulders; and the bottom layer, using gel-particle foam, provides stable support for the core.
[0014] Preferably, the top surface of the top layer forms a supporting plane, which reduces the feeling of foreign objects and improves support comfort.
[0015] Preferably, the top surface of the top layer forms a supportive curved surface that is higher in the front and lower in the back. By setting the supportive curved surface, it fits the user's neck and improves the comfort of the fit.
[0016] A pillow includes a pillow core and a cover that encloses the pillow core. The cover tightly encloses the pillow core, providing protection, facilitating disassembly and washing, and allowing for the replacement of covers with different decorative styles to match various bedding options.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: a shoulder and neck support strip is provided between the front of the top layer and the bottom layer, and the front wall of the shoulder and neck support strip is exposed on the front wall of the core, so that the shoulder and neck support strip can provide abutment support to the user's neck and shoulders through the top surface and the front wall respectively, effectively improving the comfort of use.

[0025] The essential features of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0026] Example 1:
[0027] This embodiment provides a pillow core.
[0028] like Figure 1 and 2The pillow core shown includes a core body 1, which comprises a vertically stacked top layer 2, a neck and shoulder support strip 4, and a bottom layer 3. The neck and shoulder support strip 4 is positioned between the front portions of the top layer 2 and the bottom layer 3, with its front wall exposed above the front wall of the core body 1, forming a shoulder support surface 5. The placement of the neck and shoulder support strip 4 between the front portions of the top layer 2 and the bottom layer 3, with its front wall exposed above the front wall of the core body 1, allows the neck and shoulder support strip 4 to provide contact support to the user's neck and shoulders through its top surface and front wall, effectively improving comfort.
[0029] In this embodiment, the front wall of the shoulder and neck support strip 4 is exposed on the front wall of the core and forms a shoulder support surface 5 for the user's shoulders to abut against each other in the front and back directions. The top wall of the shoulder and neck support strip 4 is covered by the top layer 2 and forms a neck support surface for the user's neck to abut against in the vertical direction.
[0030] In this embodiment, the front-to-back vertical cross-section of the shoulder and neck support strip 4 is an arc shape with the middle section bulging upwards (e.g., Figure 3 As shown in the figure, during installation, the top layer 2, the shoulder and neck support strip 4, and the bottom layer 3 are stacked from top to bottom and bonded together to form an integrated structure, ensuring that the relative positions of the top layer 2, the shoulder and neck support strip 4, and the bottom layer 3 are fixed, ensuring that the pillow core structure is reliable and will not shift due to the user lying down and squeezing.
[0031] After assembly, the front of the bottom surface of the top layer 2 is concave upwards and matches and fits against the top surface of the shoulder and neck support strip 4. The front of the top surface of the bottom layer 3 is raised upwards and matches and fits against the bottom surface of the shoulder and neck support strip 4. The rear of the bottom surface of the top layer 2 is raised downwards and fits tightly against the rear of the top surface of the bottom layer 3, which is concave downwards. This ensures that the front of the bottom surface of the top layer 2 matches and fits against the top surface of the shoulder and neck support strip 4, the front of the top surface of the bottom layer 3 matches and fits against the bottom surface of the shoulder and neck support strip 4, and the rear of the bottom surface of the top layer 2 matches and fits against the rear of the top surface of the bottom layer 3. By eliminating gaps between the three, the pillow core is ensured to be dense and reliable, preventing gaps from affecting the reliability of the support.
[0032] In this embodiment, the thickness of the shoulder and neck support strip 4 gradually decreases from front to back, so that the hardness of the core 1 gradually changes from front to back in adjacent areas. The thickness of the shoulder and neck support strip 4 is related to the support it provides to the core 1. When the shoulder and neck support strip 4 is thicker, the support provided to the corresponding area on the top of the core 1 is greatly enhanced. Conversely, when the shoulder and neck support strip 4 is thinner, the support provided to the corresponding area on the top of the core 1 is less enhanced. By setting the shoulder and neck support strip 4 to a structure with a gradually changing thickness, it is ensured that the front part of the shoulder and neck support strip 4 can effectively enhance the support of the front of the core 1, providing effective support for the neck and shoulders. It is also ensured that the rear part of the shoulder and neck support strip 4 can reduce its impact on the support of the core 1 by gradually thinning. This ensures that the support between the front and back adjacent areas of the top of the core 1 remains unchanged or changes only slightly, preventing the user from experiencing a foreign body sensation due to large differences in support between adjacent areas.
[0033] In this embodiment, the shoulder and neck support strip 4 is elongated (e.g., ...). Figure 4 As shown), and laterally penetrating the core 1, the top layer 2 and the bottom layer 3 have the same vertical projection outline. The shoulder and neck support strip 4 is completely covered by the top layer 2 and the bottom layer 3, ensuring that each section of the front edge of the core 1 has the same support.
[0034] In this embodiment, the front wall of the core 1 is inclined backward from bottom to top, and the front wall of the shoulder and neck support strip 4 is located on the upper part of the front wall of the core 1, and is smoothly connected to the front walls of the top layer 2 and the bottom layer 3. The angle between the front wall and the top wall of the core 1 is an obtuse angle, which is conducive to the surface of the core 1 matching and fitting the user's neck and shoulders, thereby eliminating the feeling of foreign objects and improving lying comfort.
[0035] In this embodiment, the top layer 2, the neck and shoulder support strip 4, and the bottom layer 3 are all made of sponge material with the same density. Specifically, the top layer 2 is made of slow-rebound sponge material, which is easy to deform and conform to the user's surface; the neck and shoulder support strip 4 is made of high-rebound sponge material, which provides effective support for the user's neck and shoulders; and the bottom layer 3 is made of gel particle sponge material, which provides stable support for the core 1. The top layer 2, neck and shoulder support strip 4, and bottom layer 3 are made by using different types of sponge to ensure that the top layer 2, neck and shoulder support strip 4, and bottom layer 3 can each perform different functions and provide a comfortable experience for the user through their cooperation.
[0036] In this embodiment, the top surface of the top layer 2 forms a support plane 6, which provides stable support for the user. Furthermore, the top surface of the top layer 2 can also be a support curved surface 7 with a higher front and lower back (e.g., Figure 5 and 6 As shown, the support surface 7 fits the surface of the user's neck, effectively improving the support comfort of the core for the user, and should also be regarded as a specific implementation of this embodiment.
[0037] Example 2:
[0038] Compared to Embodiment 1, this embodiment provides a pillow.
[0039] A pillow includes a pillow core and a cover that encloses the pillow core. The cover tightly encloses the pillow core, providing protection, facilitating disassembly and washing, and allowing for the replacement of covers with different decorative styles to match various bedding options.
[0040] In this embodiment, the bottom of the outer cover is provided with an opening with a zipper. The pillow core can be disassembled and assembled through the opening. The zipper can close and seal the opening, which not only improves the aesthetics and prevents the core 1 from being exposed, but also protects the core 1. It can also tightly wrap the core 1, ensuring that the outer cover and the surface of the core 1 are closely attached, so that the outline of the core 1 can be seen through the outer cover.
[0041] The other structures and effects of the core 1 described in this embodiment are the same as those in Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated here.
