[0001] This utility model relates to the field of reading pillow technology, and in particular to an adjustable reading pillow. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the most common reading pillows (also known as backrests) generally include a backrest and armrests on both sides of the lower part of the backrest, such as the US patents with announcement numbers USD957847S1 and USD950980S. This type of adjustable reading pillow is mostly composed of a pillowcase and a pillow core inside the pillowcase. The pillow core is mostly made of granular, cotton-like, or fibrous materials. In the production process, a relatively complicated filling process is required to obtain the desired adjustable reading pillow, and the overall shaping effect of the adjustable reading pillow is also relatively average in actual use.
[0003] As a result, reading pillows made of materials such as sponge have appeared on the market. For example, Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN220141286U discloses a cut reading pillow. However, this type of reading pillow adopts a one-piece structure in the backrest construction and design, which results in the backrest not being adjustable and unable to obtain different leaning angles, thus it cannot match different leaning postures. Utility Model Content

[0033] The technical solutions of specific embodiments of this utility model will be clearly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the teachings of the following embodiments are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0034] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of this application can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first," "second," etc., are generally of the same class and are not limited in number; for example, a first object can be one or more.
[0035] The main concept of this utility model is to design the backrest of the reading pillow to consist of a backrest body and a cushion, and to allow the cushion to change its height relative to the backrest body, thereby obtaining different leaning postures.
[0036] In this embodiment, reference Figure 1-9 An adjustable reading pillow is provided, which includes a backrest 1, a left armrest 2 and a right armrest 3 respectively located on the lower sides of the backrest 1. The left armrest 2 and the right armrest 3 each include a pillowcase (not marked) and a pillow core (not shown) fitted inside the pillowcase. The pillow cores of the left armrest 2 and the right armrest 3 are independently cut and shaped. The backrest 1 extends upward from the bottom and forms an inclined, slightly concave large arc-shaped backrest 4.
[0037] The backrest 1 includes a backrest body 5 and a cushion 6, which are independently cut and formed. Both the backrest body 5 and the cushion 6 include a pillowcase (not labeled) and a pillow core (not shown) fitted inside the pillowcase. Structurally, the cushion 6 can rest against the backrest body 5, and the cushion 6 also features a sloping, slightly concave, large arc-shaped support front wall 4. Therefore, in this embodiment, the backrest 1 consists of two parts: the backrest body 5 and the cushion 6, both of which can be independently cut and formed, and the cushion 6 can rest against the backrest body 5. When the cushion 6 is fully against the backrest body 5, the large arc-shaped support front wall 4 formed on the cushion 6 is equivalent to the large arc-shaped support front wall 4 of the backrest 1, allowing the user's back to rest against the large arc-shaped support front wall 4 of the cushion 6.
[0038] In this embodiment, the cushion 6 is positioned to rest against the backrest body 5. Specifically, the backrest body 5 is constructed with a sloping, slightly concave, large arc-shaped front wall 4, while the cushion 6 is constructed with a sloping, slightly convex, large arc-shaped backrest 7 that matches the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the backrest body 5. Thus, the two large arc-shaped wall structures, one slightly concave and one slightly convex, achieve a matching fit to form the backrest 1. When resting, the user can adjust the height of the cushion 6 against the backrest body 5, allowing the backrest of this invention to achieve different resting angles. This means the resting angle can be adjusted to match different postures. For example, the user can achieve an upright posture, or adjust the resting angle of the backrest by changing the height of the cushion 6 against the backrest body 5, thus achieving a "Ge You lying down" posture. (See reference...) Figure 9 The backrest cushion 6 is lowered to a different height, which alters the angle of the backrest.
[0039] In this embodiment, to facilitate greater user comfort, the large arc-shaped backrest 7 and the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the cushion 6 intersect at the top of the cushion 6, forming a rounded transition connection. The cushion 6 has a horizontally positioned and flat bottom. At the bottom of the large arc-shaped front wall 4, the cushion 6 has a slightly convex lower front wall 8, and the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the cushion 6 is more gently sloping than the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the backrest body 5. Thus, the cushion 6 forms a continuous arc-shaped structure with a slightly convex lower part and a slightly concave main part, which is more conducive to achieving a comfortable leaning position. It should be noted that after lowering the backrest height of the cushion 6, the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the cushion 6 and the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the backrest body 5 work together to provide support for the user.
[0040] Of course, the cushion 6 can also be detached from the backrest body 5. In this case, the cushion 6 can be removed from the backrest body 5 and placed in a reclining position between the left armrest 2 and the right armrest 3. Ideally, the cushion 6 should be placed with its top touching the bottom front side of the backrest body 5. It should be noted that the reclining position can be as follows: Figure 2 The example shown is a supine position, or it can be as follows: Figure 3 The image shows two different reclining positions. These two reclining positions can be adjusted according to the user's needs. Alternatively, the cushion 6 can be reclined with its top positioned a distance away from the bottom front of the backrest body 5. The specific method depends on the user's requirements. Therefore, the reading pillow in this embodiment, due to the inclusion of the cushion 6, allows for adjustment of the cushion's position and can also be detached from the backrest body 5. When detached from the backrest body 5, the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the backrest body 5 can be understood as the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the backrest 1, at which point the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the backrest body 5 can be used for the user's back to rest against.
[0041] In this embodiment, the backrest body 5 has a vertically arranged and flat backrest 9 and a horizontally arranged and flat bottom. When the cushion 6 is fully against the backrest body 5, the bottom of the cushion 6 and the bottom of the backrest body 5 together form a flat bottom of the backrest 1. Combined with the large arc-shaped front wall 4, this creates a structure where the thickness of the backrest 1 gradually increases from top to bottom. The overall shape of this structure is simple, allowing for convenient cutting and shaping. Furthermore, the large arc-shaped front wall 4 has a continuous, rounded curvature, tilts downwards, and is slightly concave, providing a comfortable and supportive feel when leaning against it.
[0042] In this embodiment, the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the backrest body 5 forms an angle of approximately 40 to 50 degrees with the bottom of the backrest body 5, preferably 45 degrees. When the cushion 6 is at its highest resting height, the large arc-shaped front wall 4 of the cushion 6 forms an angle of approximately 55 to 65 degrees with the bottom of the backrest 1, preferably 60 degrees. Therefore, the reading pillow in this embodiment can achieve different resting angles, with 45 degrees and 60 degrees generally considered more comfortable.
[0043] In this embodiment, the connection between the left armrest 2, the right armrest 3 and the backrest body 5, and the backrest cushion 6 and the backrest body 5 are mainly achieved in the following ways.
[0044] Specifically, the cushion 6 and the backrest body 5 are mainly connected by adhesive, which in this embodiment can be achieved using Velcro. For example, adhesive tape 10 is provided on both sides of the cushion 6, and adhesive blocks 11 are provided on both sides of the upper part of the backrest body 5. The adhesive tape 10 can be adhered to the adhesive blocks 11. In this case, the adhesive tape 10 and the adhesive blocks 11 are male and female Velcro fasteners that are bonded together.
[0045] Specifically, the backrest body 5 has binding bands 12 on both sides at the bottom. These binding bands 12 form a free first band 121 and a second band 122. The inner wall of the end of the first band 121 has a first adhesive block 13, and the outer wall of the end of the second band 122 has a second adhesive block 14. The first adhesive block 13 and the second adhesive block 14 can be glued together to create a binding space 15. The left armrest 2 and the right armrest 3 are then fitted into their respective binding spaces 15. In this case, the first adhesive block 13 and the second adhesive block 14 are mutually adhesive male and female Velcro fasteners. This connection method is convenient to operate; the left and right armrests can be detached from the backrest body 5 and can also be easily bound using the binding bands 12.
[0046] To improve the stability of the binding and prevent displacement between the backrest body 5 and the corresponding armrests, both the left armrest 2 and the right armrest 3 are provided with a third adhesive block 16 on their inner sidewalls. The first strap 121 and the second strap 122 have a fourth adhesive block 17 on their inner walls at the base. The third adhesive block 16 is bonded to the corresponding fourth adhesive block 17. In this case, the third adhesive block 16 and the fourth adhesive block 17 are mutually bonded like male and female Velcro straps.
[0047] Of course, in other embodiments, the left armrest 2, right armrest 3, and backrest body 5 can also be connected in the following way. Specifically, the pillowcase of the left armrest 2 is sewn together with the pillowcase of the backrest body 5 at the lower left part of the backrest body 5, and the pillow core of the backrest body 5 is fitted into its pillowcase. The pillow core of the left armrest 2 is fitted into its pillowcase and, after being fitted, is close to the lower left side of the backrest 1. The pillowcase of the right armrest 3 is sewn together with the pillowcase of the backrest body 5 at the lower right part of the backrest body 5, and the pillow core of the right armrest 3 is fitted into its pillowcase and, after being fitted, is close to the lower right side of the backrest 1. It can be seen that this connection method does not require the use of Velcro, reducing the process of setting Velcro, but increasing the sewing of the left and right armrest pillowcases and the backrest body pillowcase.
[0048] It should be noted that a headrest 18 can also be installed on the top front side of the backrest 1. The headrest 18 can also be attached to the backrest 1 using Velcro. After the headrest 18 is installed, the user's neck can be rested on the headrest 18, which makes it more comfortable to use. A handle 19 can also be installed on the top of the backrest for easy lifting.
[0049] For the adjustable reading pillow of this utility model, each component can be made of sponge or foam plastic, preferably slow rebound sponge, which has significant viscoelastic properties, can exhibit very soft material properties, and has a strong impact energy absorption capacity.
[0050] The embodiments of this application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms are within the protection scope of this application.
