Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of human health care equipment technology, and in particular to a human body support structure and a human body support. Background Technology

[0002] As people pay increasing attention to health and comfort, body support devices are widely used in various scenarios such as medical care, rest, and office work. For example, common devices such as pillows, cushions, and headrests all provide support and fit to the head or neck to reduce pressure, improve comfort, and help maintain posture.

[0003] Existing support structures often employ simple planar or single-curved surface designs. While these can provide support to a certain extent, they still have limitations in conforming to the curves of specific body parts, distributing localized pressure, or stabilizing head position. For example, the support surface may not adequately adapt to the structural features of areas such as the occipital bone and neck, potentially leading to poor fit, uneven support, or easy slippage, thus affecting the user experience.

[0004] In addition, to achieve better structural stability and user comfort, the structural form of the human body support component needs to be further optimized to better adapt to the local contour features of the human body and improve the support effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical solution of this application is described below:

[0006] The first aspect of this application provides a human body support structure, including:

[0008] Optionally, the arc-shaped surface is further provided with a recess, which is located in the middle region of the arc-shaped surface in the front-back direction, for accommodating the occipital bone of the human body.

[0009] Optionally, both the first and second protrusions are hill-shaped raised structures with parabolic or near-parabolic outer contours.

[0010] Optionally, the hill-shaped first and second protrusions gradually rise vertically to the center and smoothly transition at the top.

[0013] Optionally, the vertical height from the top of the first protrusion and the second protrusion to the arcuate surface is 1 to 3 centimeters.

[0014] Optionally, the minimum distance between the bottom of the first protrusion and the second protrusion is 2 to 5 centimeters.

[0015] Optionally, the width of the first protrusion and the second protrusion at their widest positions in the front-rear direction is 3 to 8 centimeters.

[0016] Optionally, the depth of the recess is 0.5 to 1.5 cm.

[0017] Optionally, the recess is circular or nearly circular, with a diameter of 1.5 to 2.5 centimeters at the opening.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 :

[0029] This application provides an embodiment of a human body support structure, including:

[0030] The concave arc-shaped surface 01, the first convex part 02, and the second convex part 03; the arc-shaped surface 01 extends in the front-back direction to conform to the contour of the human body part, and the first convex part 02 and the second convex part 03 are disposed on the left and right sides of the arc-shaped surface 01 and protrude relative to the arc-shaped surface 01.

[0031] In this embodiment, a human body support structure is provided, including: a concave arc-shaped surface 01, a first convex part 02, and a second convex part 03.

[0032] The curved surface 01 extends along the front-to-back direction to conform to the contours of specific parts of the human body, such as the back of the head, the lower side of the neck, or the upper back. This curved surface 01 can be designed according to ergonomic curves to provide excellent support and fit during actual use. Preferably, the curved surface 01 is made of flexible or cushioning materials, such as memory foam, silicone, or elastic polymers, thereby enhancing overall user comfort.

[0033] The first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the arc-shaped surface 01, and have an outward convex structure relative to the arc-shaped surface 01. The two protrusions can be symmetrically distributed to provide lateral support or restraint for the sides of the human body, preventing the head or related parts from swaying or shifting from side to side during use, thereby enhancing the overall support stability and sense of coverage.

[0034] In practical implementation, the maximum recess depth of the curved surface 01 can be designed to be 20 mm to 50 mm, and the protrusion height of the first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 relative to the curved surface 01 can be designed to be 10 mm to 30 mm, in order to accommodate the differences in body shape among different users and achieve better support performance. Of course, the above size range is only a preferred example, and it can be optimized and adjusted according to product positioning and user needs in actual applications.

[0035] The human body support structure provided in this embodiment has an overall groove shape and good three-dimensional coverage. It can effectively disperse contact pressure while maintaining the stability of the head or other parts, and improve the support effect and comfort during use. It is especially suitable for scenarios that require maintaining a stable posture for a long time, such as sitting at an office for a long time, resting and relaxing, rehabilitation support, or traveling by car.

[0036] In an optional embodiment, the arcuate surface 01 is further provided with a recess 04, which is located in the middle region of the arcuate surface 01 in the front-back direction, and is used to accommodate the occipital bone of the human body.

[0037] By creating a localized depression in the center of the curved surface 01, the occipital bone of the human body can obtain a more fitting positioning space on the support, thereby providing support while reducing concentrated pressure on this area and avoiding discomfort caused by pressure during prolonged use. The recess 04 is preferably a curved surface structure that gradually transitions inward, naturally connecting with the overall curvature of the curved surface 01 to achieve a continuous support surface shape.

[0038] Furthermore, the depth of the recess 04 can be designed according to the morphological characteristics of the human occipital bone, preferably set to 5 mm to 15 mm, so that it can effectively accommodate without causing structural collapse or instability. The width and front-to-back length of the recess 04 can also be optimized according to actual usage scenarios to adapt to the head structure of people of different ages or body types.

[0039] The recessed section 04 not only improves the fit of the support structure to the human head shape, but also provides a more stable and comfortable support experience during sleep or rest. This structure offers significant practical advantages, especially in applications requiring reduced neck tension or maintenance of a neutral head position.

[0040] In an optional embodiment, both the first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 are hill-shaped raised structures with parabolic or approximately parabolic outer contours.

[0041] By employing a hill-like structural design, the protrusions exhibit a naturally transitioning curved surface as they extend outwards. The outer contour is preferably parabolic or approximately parabolic, which helps to enhance the flexibility and fit of the contact surface with the human body while ensuring support. This structure not only provides excellent lateral coverage and support for the sides of the head or neck, but also avoids discomfort caused by abrupt edges or an overly rigid structure.

[0042] Compared to straight or steep facades, parabolic contours offer better stress cushioning and a softer visual appeal, especially when used for support, relaxation, or recovery, further enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, this hill-like contour facilitates molding with flexible materials, resulting in excellent processability and structural stability in actual product manufacturing.

[0043] Therefore, this optional structure not only improves the overall ergonomic adaptability, but also enhances the uniformity of support and comfort during use. It is suitable for scenarios that have certain requirements for support performance and appearance, such as high-end chair headrests, medical posture supports, or sleep aids.

[0044] In an optional embodiment, the hill-shaped first protrusion 02 and second protrusion 03 gradually rise vertically to the center and smoothly transition at the top.

[0045] By gradually varying the height of the protrusions vertically, creating a gradual upward trend from the edge to the center, a natural fit with the contours of the head and neck on both sides of the body is achieved. The rounded transition at the top avoids sharp edges, thereby reducing localized pressure during actual contact and improving overall support comfort and safety.

[0046] This structure effectively disperses concentrated loads under stress, preventing soft tissue compression caused by localized hardening, and also provides gentle, continuous support when the user is lying on their side or slightly turning their head. The smooth transition of the top also contributes to good aesthetics, giving the product a more natural and approachable visual appearance.

[0047] In an optional embodiment, the interior of the first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 is filled with a flexible elastic material.

[0048] By filling the first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 with a flexible elastic material, the support structure provides shape retention while also offering deformation cushioning. When the user's head or neck comes into contact with the support, the flexible elastic material can deform appropriately according to pressure changes at the contact point, absorbing and dispersing local pressure, thereby improving overall comfort and adaptability.

[0049] The flexible elastic material can be selected from common elastomer materials such as polyurethane foam, memory foam, silicone, and latex. These materials have good resilience and shape recovery capabilities, and can maintain a stable structural shape after long-term use, preventing the support effect from being affected by compression deformation.

[0050] In an optional embodiment, the first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 are integrally formed with the arcuate surface 01.

[0051] By adopting a one-piece molding structural design, the first protrusion 02, the second protrusion 03, and the arc-shaped surface 01 are integrally formed during the manufacturing process, avoiding problems such as structural instability and loose interfaces caused by splicing or assembling multiple parts, thereby improving the overall durability and service life. At the same time, this structural form can ensure that the transition surfaces between the parts are more natural and smooth, which helps to achieve continuous fit and uniform support for different parts of the human body.

[0052] The unibody molding process can employ methods such as integral molding, injection molding, and foam molding, which can be adjusted according to the physical properties of the selected materials. This structural design not only optimizes the production process, reduces manufacturing costs and the complexity of manual assembly, but also improves product consistency and appearance integrity.

[0053] In an optional embodiment, the vertical height from the top of the first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 to the arcuate surface 01 is 1 to 3 centimeters.

[0054] By limiting the vertical height of the protrusions within this range, sufficient support can be ensured while avoiding discomfort or structural instability caused by excessive bulges. This height range allows the first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 to provide appropriate lateral support when conforming to the contours of the human body, effectively covering the head and neck area and improving the stability and comfort of the support.

[0055] Meanwhile, this height design facilitates coordination with the overall shape of the curved surface 01, ensuring a smooth transition in the form of the support component, reducing local stress concentration, and preventing uneven pressure or local deformation during use. This height range also facilitates material selection and molding process implementation, making it suitable for various manufacturing methods, including injection molding, foaming, or composite material molding.

[0056] In an optional embodiment, the minimum distance between the bottoms of the first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 is 2 to 5 centimeters.

[0057] By limiting the spacing between the bottoms of the two protrusions within this range, it is possible to ensure that the support provides adequate lateral support space when fitting the head or neck, avoiding both discomfort caused by excessive narrowness and inadequate support due to excessive width. This spacing helps accommodate users of different body types, improving the stability and comfort of the support.

[0058] In an optional embodiment, the width of the first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 at their widest positions in the front-back direction is 3 to 8 centimeters.

[0059] By limiting the maximum width of the protrusions within this range, it is ensured that the protrusions provide sufficient support area while avoiding excessive width that could lead to a bulky structure or affect the fit to the human body. This width range helps the first protrusion 02 and the second protrusion 03 to better adapt to the contour changes of the human head and neck, achieving a more uniform force distribution and a more comfortable contact feel.

[0060] In an optional embodiment, the depth of the recess 04 is 0.5 to 1.5 cm.

[0061] By limiting the depth of the recess 04 within this range, the occipital bone of the human body can be effectively accommodated, providing adequate recessed space, thereby reducing pressure on the occipital bone and improving the comfort and ergonomic fit of the support. This depth ensures that the recess 04 effectively accommodates the occipital bone while avoiding insufficient local support or reduced structural strength due to excessive depth.

[0062] In an optional embodiment, the recess 04 is circular or approximately circular, with a diameter of 1.5 to 2.5 cm at the recess.

[0063] By designing the recess 04 as circular or near-circular, it helps to achieve uniform containment and support for the occipital bone area, avoiding localized pressure concentration caused by irregular shapes and improving comfort during use. Limiting the diameter of the recess to between 1.5 and 2.5 cm ensures that the recess 04 has sufficient capacity while avoiding excessive size that would affect the stability and support effect of the overall structure.

[0064] The second aspect of this application provides a human body support member, including the human body support member structure as described in the first aspect and any one of the first aspects.

[0065] This human body support component utilizes a concave arc-shaped surface 01 and first and second protrusions 02 and 03 located on its left and right sides to achieve a close fit and support to the contours of the human head and neck, further enhancing comfort and stability during use. In an optional embodiment, the concave portion 04 is used to accommodate the occipital bone area, and the protrusions are filled with flexible elastic material or have an integrally molded structure, providing good cushioning and durability. Furthermore, the dimensions of each component are reasonable, meeting ergonomic requirements.

[0066] It should be noted that the above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use this application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the scope of this application. Therefore, this application is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
