Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of pillow technology, specifically to a neck pillow. Background Technology

[0002] During long drives, long journeys, or prolonged sitting, the head and neck remain in a fixed position for extended periods, putting pressure on the cervical spine and causing fatigue. A U-shaped neck pillow can wrap around the neck, conform to the shoulders, and support the head and neck, reducing pressure on the shoulders, neck, and spine, thus alleviating spinal fatigue. Therefore, U-shaped neck pillows are widely favored by consumers.

[0003] In existing technology, the back of the neck pillow contacts the seat. However, long-distance bus seats are angled, and most neck pillows have a convex structure on the back of the neck facing the seat. This results in less contact area between the neck pillow and the seat, leading to poor fit. When the protruding neck pillow contacts the seat, it generates a certain force, and the neck pillow cannot provide sufficient support. As a result, the user's head and neck cannot fully relax and rest on the seat, affecting the comfort of sleeping while wearing it and leading to a poor overall user experience.

[0004] Therefore, the structure of neck pillows in the prior art has room for further improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, and in response to the technical problem in the prior art that the contact area between the neck and the seat of the neck pillow is small and the fit between the two is poor, resulting in poor user comfort, this application provides a neck pillow that increases the contact area between the neck and the seat by changing the structure of the surface of the neck pillow that contacts the seat, thereby improving the fit and enhancing the user's comfort and overall experience.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: a neck pillow, comprising a pillow core, wherein the pillow core comprises:

[0007] A posterior neck support portion, wherein the posterior neck support portion is used to support the neck;

[0008] Side neck support portion, wherein the side neck support portion is disposed at both ends of the rear neck support portion;

[0009] The rear neck support has a rear side surface on the side away from the user's back of the neck. The rear side surface is a slope, and the distance from the upper side of the rear side surface to the neck is greater than the distance from the lower side of the rear side surface to the neck.

[0010] Compared to existing technologies, this neck pillow includes a rear neck support and side neck supports. The rear neck support supports the neck, allowing it to comfortably rest against the neck pillow, reducing neck pain or scoliosis during long journeys or office lunch breaks. The side neck supports are located at both ends of the rear neck support, primarily supporting the sides of the neck or face, effectively preventing neck tilting. The neck pillow in this application features a rear side, located on the side of the rear neck support furthest from the user's back of the neck. This rear side has a sloping design, allowing the neck pillow to better conform to the chair back, increasing stability for sleeping on your back. It ensures the back of the neck is firmly against the neck pillow, providing a good support angle and preventing the neck from tilting to the side. It also increases the contact area between the neck pillow and the chair back, improving the pillow's support and stability, and enhancing the user experience.

[0011] Preferably, the tilt angle of the rear side is in the range of 50° to 70°.

[0012] In this embodiment, the reasonable tilt angle allows the neck pillow to better fit the surface of the chair back, enabling the chair back to provide better support when the user leans back, and increasing the contact area and stability between the chair back and the neck pillow.

[0013] Preferably, the top of the side neck support is provided with a protrusion, the protrusion protrudes toward the top of the user's head, and the center of the protrusion is biased toward the side of the side neck support near the user's neck;

[0014] The bottom of the side neck support is a planar structure.

[0015] In this embodiment, when a user is sleeping while traveling with a neck pillow, their head is easily tilted to one side due to the force exerted during the car's movement. By setting a protrusion at the top of the side neck support, the protrusion increases the vertical height of the neck pillow and stabilizes most of the head, effectively preventing the user's head from swaying from side to side during sleep and improving the user's comfort.

[0016] Preferably, the top of the side neck support and the top of the rear neck support are connected by a slope transition, and the bottom of the side neck support is provided with a groove, which is recessed towards the top of the user's head;

[0017] The groove is an arc-shaped structure.

[0018] In this embodiment, by setting an arc-shaped groove, it can fit the user's shoulder better, providing more stable support and reducing the risk of slipping.

[0019] Preferably, in a vertical plane, the top of the protrusion and the top of the rear neck support are on the same plane;

[0020] or,

[0021] The highest point of the protrusion is higher than the highest point of the rear neck support.

[0022] In this embodiment, the top of the protrusion is on the same plane as the top of the posterior neck support, which can ensure that the neck and head are evenly supported, reduce local pressure, improve comfort, help the head and neck maintain a natural alignment, and reduce neck and shoulder discomfort caused by improper posture.

[0023] Preferably, the posterior neck support has a front end face on the side facing the user's neck, and the front end face of the posterior neck support has a smooth transition from bottom to top;

[0024] or,

[0025] The front end face of the rear neck support has a concave arc transition from bottom to top.

[0026] In this embodiment, the concave transition can evenly distribute the force on the back of the user's neck, so that the force on the back of the neck can be evenly distributed on the neck pillow, reducing the local pressure concentration on the back of the neck, making it more comfortable and providing better support when the neck is leaning back.

[0027] Preferably, the rear neck support portion comprises a first support portion and a second support portion, wherein the first support portion is disposed at both ends of the second support portion, and the other end of the first support portion is connected to the side neck support portion;

[0028] The tops of the first support portion and the tops of the second support portion are connected by an arc-shaped transition.

[0029] or,

[0030] The tops of the first support portion and the tops of the second support portion are connected by a smooth transition.

[0031] In this embodiment, the curved transition can better conform to the natural curve of the neck, providing more comfortable support, reducing neck muscle tension and fatigue, improving the overall user experience, and effectively dispersing neck pressure, avoiding excessive local stress, thereby reducing neck discomfort caused by prolonged use.

[0032] Preferably, the neck pillow further includes a pillowcase, and the pillow core is fitted inside the pillowcase;

[0033] The pillowcase has at least one storage bag on its side, which is used to store items.

[0034] In this embodiment, the storage bag is used to store items such as eye masks, earplugs, and neck pillows. When users have nowhere to store these items, the storage bag can serve as a good storage solution, improving user efficiency.

[0035] Preferably, the neck pillow further includes a connecting component, which is connected to the pillowcase and is used to secure the pillow core.

[0036] In this embodiment, the connecting component is used to bind the pillow core. The connecting component binds the neck pillow when it is in a rolled-up state. When rolling up, starting from one end of the side neck support, the outer side of the side neck support adheres to the inner side of the side neck support and rolls inward to form a rolled-up structure. The rolled-up neck pillow is then placed in a storage bag, which can make it waterproof, dirt-resistant, and reduce the space occupied by the neck pillow, making it convenient to carry and hang.

[0037] Preferably, the end of the side neck support away from the rear neck support has an arc-shaped structure, and the side neck support and the two sides of the rear neck support are connected to form an enclosing space and an entrance. The enclosing space is connected to the entrance, and the size of the enclosing space is larger than the size of the entrance.

[0038] In this embodiment, the embracing space can effectively wrap around the user's head or neck, providing better support. The embracing space is connected to the entrance, and the size of the embracing space is larger than the size of the entrance, so that when the user uses the neck pillow, the body part enters the embracing space from the entrance.

They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limitations on this application.

[0060] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, see below. Figures 1 to 13 illustrate.

[0061] Example 1

[0062] This embodiment provides a neck pillow, which is applied in the field of pillow technology. Specifically, as shown in the example... Figures 1 to 13 As shown, the pillow includes a pillow core 1 and a pillowcase 2. The pillow core 1 is fitted inside the pillowcase 2, which effectively prevents sweat, oil, dirt, and dust from directly contaminating the pillow and extending its lifespan. The pillow core 1 includes a back neck support 11 and side neck support 12. The back neck support 11 supports the neck, allowing it to rest comfortably against the pillow and reducing neck pain or scoliosis during long journeys or office naps. The side neck support 12 is located at both ends of the back neck support 11 and is mainly used to support the sides of the neck or face, effectively preventing the neck from tilting to one side.

[0063] like Figures 2 to 11 As shown, the neck support 11 has a rear side surface 111 on the side furthest from the user's neck. The rear side surface 111 is made of anti-slip material, effectively preventing the neck pillow from sliding during use. The rear side surface 111 is sloping, with the distance from the upper side of the rear side surface 111 to the neck greater than the distance from the lower side of the rear side surface 111 to the neck. This allows the neck pillow to better conform to the chair back, increasing stability for sleeping on your back. It also ensures the back of the neck is firmly against the neck pillow, providing a good support angle and preventing the neck from tilting to the left or right. Furthermore, it increases the contact area between the neck pillow and the chair back, improving the support and stability of the neck pillow and enhancing the user experience. The tilt angle of the rear side surface 111 ranges from 50° to 70°, with 55°, 60°, or 65° being preferred in this embodiment. This reasonable tilt angle allows the neck pillow to better conform to the chair back, providing better support when the user is reclining, and increasing the contact area and stability between the chair back and the neck pillow.

[0064] Specifically, such as Figures 2 to 9As shown, the top of the side neck support 12 is provided with a protrusion 121, which protrudes towards the top of the user's head. The center of the protrusion 121 is biased towards the side of the side neck support 12 closest to the user's neck. The inner surface of the protrusion 121 transitions with the inner surface of the side neck support 12, and the outer surface of the protrusion 121 transitions with the outer surface of the side neck support 12. When a user wears a neck pillow while traveling and sleeping, their head is easily affected by the force of the car's movement, causing it to tilt from side to side. By providing the protrusion 121 at the top of the side neck support 12, the protrusion 121 increases the vertical height of the neck pillow, stabilizing most of the head and effectively preventing the user's head from swaying from side to side during sleep, thus improving user comfort. The bottom of the side neck support 12 has a flat structure, which can evenly distribute the pressure of the neck pillow, reducing excessive local pressure on the neck and improving comfort. It can also prevent the neck pillow from sliding or tilting during use.

[0065] The thickness of the protrusion 121 is less than or equal to the thickness of the side neck support 12, and the thickness of the protrusion 121 is less than or equal to the thickness of the rear neck support 11. The rear neck support 11 has an arc transition from the top to the rear side 111, which can improve the stability and support of the neck pillow, increase the contact area between the neck pillow and the chair back, and improve the stability of the neck pillow and the user's efficiency.

[0066] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, on the vertical plane, the top of the protrusion 121 is on the same plane as the top of the cervical support 11, which can ensure that the neck and head are evenly supported, reduce local pressure, improve comfort, help the head and neck to maintain a natural alignment, and reduce neck and shoulder discomfort caused by improper posture.

[0067] It should be noted that, as Figure 7 As shown, the highest point of the protrusion 121 is higher than the highest point of the rear neck support 11. The protrusion 121 and the rear neck support 11 have a smooth transition. The higher protrusion 121 can help keep the head at a more natural angle, prevent the head from tilting forward, and also increase the contact between the head and neck and the chair back, so that the head or neck can lean against the chair back more smoothly and distribute the pressure on the head and neck.

[0068] Furthermore, such as Figures 2 to 12 As shown, the neck support 11 has a front end face 112 on the side facing the user's neck. The front end face 112 of the neck support 11 has a smooth transition from bottom to top. The front end face 112 is designed to fit the curve of the back of the neck. When the user leans back on the chair, it is easy and stress-free, reducing soreness and pressure in the back of the neck.

[0069] It should be noted that, as Figure 13As shown, the front end face 112 of the neck support 11 can also be configured to have a concave transition from bottom to top. The concave transition can evenly distribute the user's neck, so that the force on the neck can be evenly distributed on the neck pillow, reducing the local pressure concentration on the neck, making the neck more comfortable to lean back, and providing better support.

[0070] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 , Figure 8 , Figure 12 As shown, the posterior neck support 11 is divided into a first support 113 and a second support 114. The first support 113 is located at both ends of the second support 114. The other end of the first support 113 is connected to the side neck support 12. The top of the first support 113 and the top of the second support 114 are connected by an arc transition. The arc transition can better fit the natural curve of the neck, provide more comfortable support, reduce neck muscle tension and fatigue, improve the overall user experience, and effectively distribute neck pressure, avoid excessive local force, thereby reducing neck discomfort caused by prolonged use.

[0071] It should be noted that the top of the first support 113 and the top of the second support 114 can also be connected by a smooth transition. The smooth transition can provide consistent support, ensure that the neck and head are on the same horizontal plane, reduce local pressure, and improve comfort.

[0072] Furthermore, such as Figure 13 As shown, the pillowcase 2 has at least one storage bag 21 on its side. The storage bag 21 is located on the outer side of the side neck support 12. The storage bag 21 is used to store items, such as eye masks, earplugs, and bags for storing neck pillows. When the user has nowhere to store these items, the storage bag 21 can play a good role in storage, improving the user's efficiency.

[0073] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 As shown, the end of the side neck support 12 away from the back neck support 11 has an arc-shaped structure, which is conducive to supporting the user's chin. The side neck support 12 and the back neck support 11 are connected on both sides to form an embracing space and an entrance. The embracing space can effectively wrap around the user's head or neck, providing better support for the user. The embracing space is connected to the entrance, and the size of the embracing space is larger than the size of the entrance, so that when the user uses the neck pillow, the body part enters the embracing space through the entrance.

[0074] Among them, such as Figure 5As shown, the side neck support 12 is provided with a first concave surface 123. The first concave surface 123 is located at the end of the side neck support 12 away from the rear neck support 11. The first concave surface 123 is recessed towards the user's neck, which can evenly distribute the pressure on the user's neck and improve comfort.

[0075] like Figure 13 As shown, the neck pillow also includes a connecting component 3, which connects to the pillowcase 2. The connecting component 3 is used to restrain the pillow core 1. When the neck pillow is rolled up, the connecting component 3 restrains it. During rolling, starting from one end of the side neck support 12, the outer side of the side neck support 12 adheres to the inner side of the side neck support 12 and rolls inward to form a rolling structure. The rolled-up neck pillow is then placed in a storage bag, which provides waterproofing, stain resistance, and reduces the space occupied by the neck pillow, making it convenient to carry and hang. The connecting component 3 also serves to secure the neck pillow. When the user wears the neck pillow, it is easy for it to slip off. The connecting component 3 secures the neck pillow, ensuring stability during use and preventing changes in the neck pillow's position due to head movements, thus providing continuous support. The connecting component 3 can be detachable or adjustable, allowing users to easily store the neck pillow when not in use, improving convenience.

[0076] Furthermore, the connecting component 3 includes a first connector 31, a second connector 32, and a restraining member. The first connector 31 and the second connector 32 are respectively disposed on both sides of the pillowcase 2. The restraining member is disposed on the side of the pillowcase 2 near the rear side 111. The restraining member is wrapped around the pillow core 1 to restrain the pillow core 1 so that the pillow core 1 is kept in a rolled-up state. The first connector 31 is detachably installed on the second connector 32 so that the two ends of the pillowcase 2 are close to each other, and the two ends of the pillow core 1 are close to each other, so that the neck pillow can be stably wrapped around the user's neck and stably support the user's head, reducing the possibility of the neck pillow separating from the user, thereby improving the practicality of the neck pillow.

[0077] Example 2

[0078] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment one is that the top of the side neck support 12 and the top of the rear neck support 11 are connected by a slope transition, which provides better support for the user's face on both sides. The bottom of the side neck support 12 is provided with a groove 122, which is concave towards the top of the user's head. The groove 122 is an arc-shaped structure, which can better fit the curve of the user's neck, provide more stable support for the user, reduce the risk to the neck and shoulders, improve comfort, and meet the different needs of users.

[0079] The present application has been described in detail above. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present application. The descriptions of the embodiments above are only for the purpose of helping to understand the present application and its core ideas. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications to the present application without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
