[0026] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit its scope.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model discloses a novel pillow structure, including a base pad 1. A high-position support part 2 and a low-position support part 3 are respectively provided at the left and right ends of the base pad 1. The high-position support part 2 is connected to the base pad 1 via upper and lower zipper assemblies. The low-position support part 3 is also connected to the base pad 1 via upper and lower zipper assemblies. A lifting adjustment assembly is provided at the bottom of the base pad 1, the high-position support part 2, and the low-position support part 3. The lifting adjustment assembly includes a base 4 and a lifting plate 5. An adjustment groove 6 is provided at the top of the base 4. A lifting power mechanism is provided within the adjustment groove 6. The lifting plate 5 is installed at the opening of the adjustment groove 6 via the lifting power mechanism. The bottom ends of the base pad 1, the high-position support part 2, and the low-position support part 3 are all connected to the corresponding lifting plate 5.

[0028] First, the base pad 1 and the high-position support part 2 are connected by a double-layer zipper assembly, enabling basic functions and multi-scenario applications. Then, the base pad 1, the high-position support part 2, and the low-position support part 3 each have independent lifting and adjusting components. Moreover, a double-layer zipper assembly is also designed for the base pad 1 and the low-position support part 3, allowing the base pad 1, the high-position support part 2, and the low-position support part 3 to be independently height-adjusted. The lifting power mechanism works in conjunction with the lifting plate 5 to complete the height adjustment process. This design greatly improves the versatility of the pillow and can meet the pillow usage needs of different user groups.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment of the above embodiment, the lifting power mechanism includes a bidirectional threaded rod 7, on which two sections of threads with opposite directions are symmetrically machined. A power block 8 is provided on both the front and rear sides of the middle portion of the adjusting groove 6. The front and rear power blocks 8 are respectively provided with threaded holes with opposite directions in their front-to-back directions. The front and rear power blocks 8 are threadedly connected to the front and rear sides of the bidirectional threaded rod 7 through the threaded holes with opposite directions. Push rods 9 are hinged to both ends of each power block 8. The outer ends of the four push rods 9 are respectively hinged to the left front, left rear, right front, and right rear sides of the bottom end of the lifting plate 5. Four sets of longitudinal telescopic limiting components are evenly distributed at the bottom end of the adjusting groove 6. The telescopic ends of the four sets of longitudinal telescopic limiting components are connected to the bottom end of the lifting plate 5. The rear end of the bidirectional threaded rod 7 is connected to the rear end of the adjusting groove 6 via a bearing. A power component is provided at the front end of the bidirectional threaded rod 7.

[0030] Implementation process: A bidirectional threaded rod 7 is installed in the adjusting groove 6. Two sections of threads with opposite directions are symmetrically machined on the bidirectional threaded rod 7 to ensure the accuracy and smoothness of the threads, thus ensuring the smooth movement of the subsequent power blocks 8. Power blocks 8 are placed on the front and rear sides of the middle section of the adjusting groove 6, respectively. Threaded holes with opposite directions are machined through the front and rear power blocks 8 in the front and rear directions, respectively. Then, the front and rear power blocks 8 are threadedly connected to the front and rear sides of the middle section of the bidirectional threaded rod 7 through the corresponding threaded holes. Afterwards, push rods 9 are hinged to both ends of each group of power blocks 8. The outer ends of the four groups of push rods 9 are hinged to the left front, left rear, right front, and right rear sides of the bottom of the lifting plate 5, respectively, ensuring a tight connection and flexible movement at the hinge points. Finally, four sets of multi-stage telescopic rods 15 are evenly arranged at the bottom of the adjusting groove 6 as longitudinal telescopic limit components. The telescopic ends of the multi-stage telescopic rods 15 are connected and fixed to the bottom of the lifting plate 5.

[0031] Beneficial effects: The cooperation between the bidirectional threaded rod 7 and the power block 8 allows the front and rear power blocks 8 to move relative to or opposite to each other when the bidirectional threaded rod 7 rotates. This, in turn, drives the lifting plate 5 to rise or fall via the push rod 9, achieving the height adjustment function. The four sets of push rods 9 are connected to the four corners of the lifting plate 5, ensuring uniform force distribution and preventing tilting during lifting. The multi-stage telescopic rod 15, as a longitudinal telescopic limiting component, effectively restricts the movement direction of the lifting plate 5, allowing it to move only longitudinally, further ensuring the stability and reliability of the lifting process.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment of the above embodiments, the power component is configured as an electric adjustment component or a manual adjustment component;

[0033] A power slot 10 is provided on the front top of the base 4. The electric adjustment assembly is equipped with a reducer 11. A motor 12 is provided at the input end of the reducer 11. A battery assembly 13 and a forward / reverse switch 14 are electrically connected to the motor 12. The front end of the bidirectional threaded rod 7 is rotatably inserted into the power slot 10 through the self-adjusting slot 6. The front end of the bidirectional threaded rod 7 is concentrically connected to the output end of the reducer 11. The motor 12, reducer 11, and battery assembly 13 are all installed in the power slot 10. The forward / reverse switch 14 is installed on the outer wall of the base 4. The battery assembly 13 is a rechargeable battery or a disposable battery. The rechargeable battery is equipped with a charging port 16, which is installed on the outer wall of the base 4.

[0034] Implementation process: When using an electric adjustment assembly, a power groove 10 is machined on the front top of the base 4. The reducer 11 is installed in the power groove 10, and the output end of the motor 12 is connected to the input end of the reducer 11. The battery assembly 13 (if a rechargeable battery, a charging port 16 needs to be installed on the outer wall of the base) is then electrically connected to the motor 12. Simultaneously, a forward / reverse switch 14 is installed on the outer wall of the base 4 and electrically connected to the motor 12. Then, the front end of the bidirectional threaded rod 7 is rotatably inserted from the adjustment groove 6 into the power groove 10, ensuring that the front end of the bidirectional threaded rod 7 is concentrically connected to the output end of the reducer 11, guaranteeing a secure connection and smooth transmission. When using a manual adjustment assembly, a knob or other manual drive structure is directly installed on the front end of the bidirectional threaded rod 7, allowing it to directly drive the bidirectional threaded rod 7 to rotate.

[0035] Beneficial effects: The electrically adjustable components allow users to easily control the height of different parts of the pillow via the forward / reverse switch 14, making operation convenient and effortless, especially suitable for users with limited mobility or those seeking a convenient experience. The motor 12, reducer 11, and battery assembly 13 are housed within the power slot 10, saving space and protecting internal components from external damage. The rechargeable battery design frees the pillow from the constraints of power cords, offering greater flexibility, while disposable batteries are suitable for scenarios where charging is inconvenient. The manual adjustment components cater to some users' preference for mechanical control and are also suitable for environments without power supply, enhancing the pillow's versatility.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment of the above embodiment, the longitudinal telescopic limiting component is specifically configured as a multi-stage telescopic rod 15;

[0037] The design of the multi-stage telescopic rod 15 can minimize the longitudinal dimension of the telescopic rod while meeting the longitudinal height limit, which allows the height of the base 4 to be relatively low, making the pillow lighter.

[0038] As a preferred embodiment of the above embodiment, the top edge of the base 4 is provided with an auxiliary groove, and an elastic cloth 17 is provided in the auxiliary groove. The other end of the elastic cloth 17 is connected to the bottom edge of the corresponding base pad 1, the high-position support part 2 and the low-position support part 3.

[0039] Implementation process: An auxiliary groove is machined at the top edge of the base 4. One end of the elastic cloth 17 is fixedly installed in the auxiliary groove, and the other end is connected to the bottom edge of the corresponding base pad 1, high-position support part 2 and low-position support part 3 to ensure that the elastic cloth 17 can flatly cover the opening edge of the adjustment groove 6 in its natural state, and can extend and retract accordingly during the lifting process of the lifting plate 5.

[0040] Beneficial effects: The elastic fabric 17 effectively covers the adjustment groove 6, preventing dust, impurities, etc. from entering the adjustment groove 6 and contaminating the lifting power mechanism, ensuring the normal operation of the power mechanism and extending its service life. At the same time, the elastic fabric 17 has good elasticity, will not obstruct the lifting plate 5 during its lifting process, and will not be damaged due to its own stretching or contraction, enhancing the overall aesthetics and practicality of the pillow. The elastic fabric 17 can be replaced if damaged.

[0041] The elastic fabric 17 can be made of suitable materials according to actual usage needs, and can also be fitted directly onto the entire pillow or onto the base 1, the high support part 2 and the low support part 3 with customized elastic pillowcases.

[0042] As a preferred embodiment of the above, the zipper assembly includes a zipper body 18 and an extension fabric 19, wherein the extension fabric 19 is installed on the left and right sides of the zipper body 18.

[0043] The zipper assembly with extension fabric 19 ensures that the stability of the connection is not affected by changes in length when the height is adjusted at various parts. At the same time, the design of the zipper body 18 makes it very convenient to disassemble the high-position support 2 and the low-position support 3, which facilitates the cleaning or replacement of each part and reduces the difficulty of maintenance. The size of the extension fabric 19 can be selected according to actual needs.

[0044] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0045] When height adjustment is required, in electric mode, the forward / reverse switch 14 is activated, and the motor 12 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 7 to rotate via the reducer 11. Because the two sections of the bidirectional threaded rod 7 have opposite threads, the front and rear power blocks 8 move relative to each other (closer) or opposite to each other (farther away) along the threaded rod. When the power blocks 8 move, they push or pull the hinged push rod 9, causing the lifting plate 5 to rise or fall longitudinally under the limiting action of the multi-stage telescopic rod 15, thereby driving the base pad 1, the high-position support part 2, or the low-position support part 3 to rise and fall synchronously, achieving the purpose of height adjustment. In manual mode, the same adjustment process is achieved by manually driving the bidirectional threaded rod 7 to rotate.

[0046] The zipper assembly ensures secure connections between all parts and facilitates easy assembly and disassembly. The elastic fabric 17 expands and contracts with height changes during lifting, protecting the internal structure from contamination. Through this structure and principle, the pillow can flexibly adapt to different user needs, enhancing the user experience.

[0047] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
