Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furniture, and in particular to a three-dimensional partitioned pressure-relieving support pillow. Background Technology

[0002] Sleep, a vital physiological activity that occupies about one-third of a person's life, is crucial for sleep. As an important sleep aid, the quality and design of pillows directly impact sleep quality and overall health. With rising living standards and increased health awareness, higher demands are being placed on the performance and comfort of pillows.

[0003] Currently, there are many types of pillow cores on the market, the most common being traditional buckwheat hull pillow cores, fiber pillow cores, and latex pillow cores. While these pillow cores meet basic sleep needs to some extent, they still present several problems in actual use. For example, traditional pillow cores are prone to changing shape, fail to provide adequate neck support, and exert excessive pressure on the corners of the eyes, cheekbones, and ears when sleeping on one's side. Therefore, a zoned design for pillow cores is necessary. Traditional pillows are generally bread-shaped, only providing a slight elevation without zoned design, and their structure and function are relatively simple, resulting in low consumer satisfaction. Based on this, we offer a more optimized three-dimensional zoned pressure-relieving support pillow core.

[0004] Chinese Patent: A Traction Butterfly-Shaped Neck Support Pillow, Authorization Announcement No.: CN218942755, Authorization Announcement Date: May 2, 2023. Although it features a zoned design, including a side-sleeping support area, it is merely an extension of the central support groove. According to the disclosed technical solution, a groove is designed in the center of the pillow core, and then the area around the groove is defined as different functional zones. There is no support design along the direction of neck movement; that is, when changing from a lying to a side-sleeping position, the neck support does not have a smooth transition, but rather a process of climbing from the bottom to the top of the groove. Therefore, it is very uncomfortable during the transition between sleeping positions. Furthermore, it does not consider the curvature of the face and the dimensional differences between individuals, resulting in limited adjustability and adaptability to individual body sizes. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The problem to be solved by this utility model is to propose an improvement or replacement solution to address the shortcomings of the prior art, especially an improvement or replacement solution that takes into account both support and sleeping position switching.

[0006] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following solution: a three-dimensional partitioned pressure-relieving support pillow, characterized in that it includes a pillow core body, which is divided into a head support area, a neck support area, and a back support area. The neck support area is located between the head support area and the back support area, and the three parts are an integral structure. The head support area has an upwardly curved arc structure, and its thickness gradually decreases from the top to the bottom. The neck support area has a downwardly curved arc structure, and its thickness gradually decreases from the bottom to the top. A recessed area is formed at the connection between the head support area and the neck support area, which is the occipital bone support area. The head support area is curved upward and the neck support area is curved downward. The V-shaped grooves formed at both ends of the connection area between the two are the side-sleeping pressure-relief areas.

[0007] Furthermore, the three-dimensional partitioned pressure-relieving support pillow is characterized in that the maximum thickness of the head support area is less than or equal to the minimum thickness of the lower edge of the neck support area.

[0008] Furthermore, the three-dimensional partitioned pressure-relieving support pillow is characterized in that the thickness at both ends of the neck support area is greater than the thickness in the middle, and the thickness gradually decreases from both ends of the neck support area towards the middle, with the thickness decreasing at equal intervals gradually changing from small to large.

[0009] Furthermore, the three-dimensional partitioned pressure-relieving support pillow is characterized in that the thickness at both ends of the head support area is greater than the thickness in the middle, and the thickness gradually decreases from both ends of the head support area towards the middle, with the thickness decreasing at equal intervals gradually increasing.

[0010] Furthermore, the three-dimensional partitioned pressure-relieving support pillow is characterized in that an adjustable universal joint is provided inside the neck support area, and the universal joint is arranged along the center line of the neck support area to adjust the curvature of the neck support area.

[0011] Furthermore, the three-dimensional partitioned pressure-relieving support pillow is characterized in that the surface of the pillow core body is provided with streamlined micro-protrusions to enhance friction and prevent slippage between the pillow core body and the pillowcase.

[0012] The technical effects of this utility model are as follows: The pillow core consists of two parts, an upper part for head support and a lower part for neck support. The head support area is tilted upwards, and the neck support area is tilted downwards at a certain angle. Two V-shaped structures are formed between the two areas, located on both sides of the pillow core. The pillow surface is at a certain height from the bottom at the angle, and there are semi-through structures with inward-extending V-shaped notches on both sides, forming a side-sleeping anti-pressure zone. This area is designed to prevent pressure on the side of the face (corner of the eye / cheekbone) when sleeping on one's side. The central part naturally concaves to form the occipital bone support zone. Simultaneously, the through-type structure also makes the neck support zone independent, ensuring that there is no obstruction on either side of the occipital bone support zone when switching from a lying to a side-sleeping position, and the neck support transitions smoothly. The pillow core has an overall shape that is higher in the front and lower in the back, and higher on the sides and lower in the middle, satisfying the varying pillow heights required when sleeping on one's back and the necessary height for side sleeping due to shoulder height.

[0013] The overall shape of the head support area and neck support area is slightly higher on both sides and slightly lower in the middle. In order to adapt to the different heights when sleeping on your back and side, the middle of the pillow core is the lowest, forming a natural transition and better fitting the occipital bone area when sleeping on your back.

[0014] The bottom center of the neck support area has an extended area that conforms to the back. This area is designed to better fit the curve of the neck, providing better support for the entire back of the neck and back when sleeping on your back. It also features raised areas of varying sizes to prevent the neck from slipping during sleep and to better fit the back of the neck. This design also increases the area of ​​contact with the neck and the breathability between the gaps.

[0015] The neck support area features an adjustable universal joint, allowing for free adjustment of its curvature to better accommodate various sleeping positions and neck and shoulder angles. The angle can be freely adjusted to suit individual needs, meeting the requirements of most people.

[0016] The pillow core has a streamlined, slightly raised friction design on its surface to prevent it from slipping between the pillow core and the cover during sleep. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example

[0023] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a three-dimensional partitioned pressure-relieving support pillow includes a pillow core body, which is divided into a head support area, a neck support area, and a back support area. The neck support area is located between the head support area and the back support area, and the three parts are an integral structure. The head support area has an upwardly curved arc structure, and its thickness gradually decreases from the top to the bottom. The neck support area has a downwardly curved arc structure, and its thickness gradually decreases from the bottom to the top. A concave area is formed at the connection between the head support area and the neck support area, which is the occipital bone support area. The head support area curves upward and the neck support area curves downward, and the V-shaped grooves formed at both ends of the connection area between the two are the side-sleeping pressure-relief areas.

[0024] The maximum thickness of the head support area is less than or equal to the minimum thickness of the lower edge of the neck support area. The thickness of the neck support area at both ends is greater than the thickness in the middle, gradually decreasing from both ends towards the middle, with the thickness decreasing at equal intervals and the magnitude of the decrease gradually increasing. The overall pillow core has a higher front and lower back, and higher sides and lower middle, which meets the needs of a person sleeping on their back with varying pillow height, and for side sleeping due to shoulder height.

[0025] An adjustable universal joint is installed inside the neck support area, positioned along its center line to adjust the curvature of the neck support area. This built-in adjustable universal joint allows for free adjustment of the neck support area's curvature, better accommodating various sleeping positions and neck and shoulder angles. The angle can be freely adjusted to meet the needs of most people. The surface of the pillow core features streamlined micro-protrusions to enhance friction and prevent slippage between the pillow core and pillowcase.
