Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of neck pillows, and more particularly to a portable self-stabilizing neck pillow. Background Technology

[0002] During long journeys, passengers often use U-shaped neck pillows to take a nap in their seats. However, these traditional neck pillows only wrap around the neck and cannot effectively prevent the head and upper body from tilting due to relaxation during sleep. Passengers are prone to unconsciously leaning towards their neighbors, which not only disturbs others but also causes them to wake up frequently due to their unstable posture, seriously affecting the quality of their rest. This problem is particularly pronounced in the limited space of economy class seats or bus seats.

[0003] While existing products offer basic neck support, they lack effective anti-slip and stabilizing mechanisms with the seat, making it difficult to provide sufficient and reliable lateral support when travelers are resting. Therefore, the market urgently needs a travel neck pillow that is simple in structure, easy to carry, and can utilize the user's own leaning force to achieve effective anti-slip and stable support, thereby improving the comfort and privacy of travel rest.

[0021] The following combination Figures 1-3 This application will be described in further detail below.

[0022] Example: This application discloses a portable self-stabilizing neck pillow. (Refer to...) Figure 1A portable self-stabilizing neck pillow includes a neck pillow body 1, a support frame 2 connected to the neck pillow body 1, and a connecting back pad 3 connected to the inner side of the support frame 2. The connecting back pad 3 is a flexible pad, selectable from at least one of textile fabric, artificial leather, foam material, rubber, or silicone, and may also be an inflatable component, designed to conform to the human back. This ensures a good fit and comfort against the human back and chair back, adapting to different body shapes and chair back curvatures, avoiding discomfort from hard contact. When not in use, the connecting back pad 3 can be easily rolled up, folded, or folded, greatly reducing its storage volume and further optimizing the overall storage and carrying experience. The support frame 2 provides a stable mounting base for the connecting back pad 3, preventing it from wrinkling or collapsing during use, ensuring a flat and effective support surface, and achieving a more stable anti-slip effect. The support frame 2 is connected to the neck pillow body 1, combining neck support and back support into a whole frame. This not only improves the reliability of the product, but also expands the contact area with the body. Specifically, the support frame 2 can support the side waist, making the force distribution more even, which helps to relieve fatigue and further improves the anti-tilt ability and overall comfort.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 The neck pillow body 1 and / or support frame 2 are inflatable components or elastic solid-filled components. The elastic solid-filled components include at least one filling material selected from sponge, PP cotton, and polyester fiber, with the sponge preferably being slow-rebound memory foam. In this embodiment, the neck pillow body 1 and support frame 2 are interconnected inflatable components. Compared to foam materials such as sponge, the volume of the neck pillow body 1 and support frame 2 can be significantly compressed after deflation, greatly improving the product's portability and storage capacity, making it convenient for travelers to carry. The inflation method allows users to adjust the firmness according to their personal comfort, providing a personalized support experience. Furthermore, the one-piece molded inflatable component simplifies the manufacturing process and inflation operation, further enhancing ease of use.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 When the neck pillow body 1 and / or the support frame 2 are inflatable components, their inflation methods can include self-inflation by pressing, mouth inflation, external air pump inflation, or automatic airbag inflation. When the connecting back pad 3 is also an inflatable component, the air path connection relationship between the neck pillow body 1, the support frame 2, and the connecting back pad 3 can be flexibly set according to design needs: they can have independent air paths to form a multi-chamber structure that is isolated from each other; or at least two of them can have interconnected air paths to form a single-chamber or double-chamber structure.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The self-stabilizing neck pillow also includes an outer cover 4 that covers the neck pillow body 1 and the support frame 2, with the back pad 3 directly connected to the outer cover 4. In this way, on the one hand, the back pad 3 can be indirectly connected to the support frame 2 through the outer cover 4, reducing the possibility of damage to the support frame 2 due to damage at the connection point. On the other hand, the outer cover 4 protects the internal inflatable components, preventing scratches or wear on the neck pillow body 1 and the support frame 2, thus extending the product's lifespan. Furthermore, the outer cover 4 can be made of skin-friendly, breathable, or more aesthetically pleasing fabrics, directly improving comfort in contact with the skin and the overall appearance of the product.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 The outer jacket 4 has an opening, and a closure 41 is provided at the opening. In this embodiment, the closure 41 can be at least one of a zipper, Velcro, snap fasteners, or button. This greatly facilitates the user's disassembly and assembly of the outer jacket 4 for washing, solves the hygiene maintenance problem of easily soiled travel goods, allows the product to remain clean for a long time, and improves the user experience.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 When the connecting back cushion 3 is a flexible fabric pad, its surface is provided with an anti-slip structure 31 to increase friction. The anti-slip structure 31 is at least one of the following: protrusions, grooves, anti-slip textures, or anti-slip coating. In this way, the anti-slip structure 31 on the surface of the connecting back cushion 3 can increase the friction with the human body, clothing, and seat surface. By utilizing the user's own backrest force, the neck pillow can achieve overall self-stability, thereby significantly suppressing the tilting of the upper body and head during sleep, avoiding waking up due to loss of posture or disturbing the space of neighboring seats, improving the stability of leaning, improving the travel rest experience, and fundamentally improving the continuity, privacy, and etiquette of rest.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 To further enhance stability, the self-stabilizing neck pillow also includes a fastener 5 for securing the entire neck pillow to the seat. The fastener 5 can be at least one of Velcro, clips, magnetic attachments, a cord, or an elastic band. In this way, the fastener 5 physically binds the entire neck pillow to the seat, effectively preventing any displacement or detachment during vehicle bumps, sudden braking, or significant user movements, ensuring stability and reliability in various travel environments. In this embodiment, the fastener 5 is an elastic band located on the side of the support frame 2 away from the neck pillow body 1. It has good elasticity and adaptability, compatible with the backrests of different models and sizes of airplane, train, car, or bus seats, offering strong versatility. Compared to cord or buckle methods, the elastic band fixing method is simple and quick to operate, requiring no complex adjustment steps, providing great convenience to the user. At the same time, the elastic restraint ensures a secure fit without damaging the seat.

[0029] The implementation principle of a portable self-stabilizing neck pillow in this application embodiment is as follows: By setting a connecting back pad 3 that is connected to the neck pillow body 1 and conforms to the back of the human body, an additional support surface is provided for the user's upper body, effectively expanding the support range. The connecting back pad 3 has a certain friction with the human body's clothing and seat surface, and achieves self-stabilization by utilizing the user's own backrest force, thereby significantly suppressing the tilting of the upper body and head during sleep, avoiding waking up due to loss of posture or disturbing the space of neighboring seats, improving the stability of the support, improving the travel rest experience, and fundamentally improving the continuity, privacy, and etiquette of rest.

[0030] Furthermore, the support frame 2 enhances the structural rigidity of the entire product, providing a stable installation base for the connecting back pad 3, preventing it from wrinkling or collapsing during use, ensuring the flatness and effectiveness of the support surface, and achieving a more stable anti-slip effect. The support frame 2 is connected to the neck pillow body 1, combining neck support and back support into a single frame. This not only improves the reliability of the product but also expands the contact area with the body. Specifically, the support frame 2 provides lateral support to the waist, facilitating a more even distribution of lumbar support force, which helps relieve fatigue and further enhances anti-tilt capability and overall comfort.

[0031] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
