Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medicated health pillows, and in particular to a pillow with a built-in drug vaporization box. Background Technology

[0002] Existing medicated pillows utilize built-in herbal packets or boxes to allow the medication to evaporate into the air around the pillow, using the penetrating properties to help regulate the nervous system, achieving relaxation, anxiety relief, and improved sleep quality. Common medicated pillows typically fill the pillow core directly with a mixture of medications, or place a full layer of herbal packets under the pillow core within the pillowcase. Both types suffer from high medication dosages and an overpowering medicinal odor. Furthermore, pillows directly filled with a mixture of medications have a grainy texture and poor sleeping comfort. Pillows with herbal packets under the core require multiple parallel grooves to allow for effective evaporation, which compromises the pillow's support. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the technical problems of existing medicated pillows, such as large dosage of medicine, strong medicinal smell, uncomfortable sleeping experience, and the impact of grooved pillow cores on support, this utility model provides a pillow with a built-in drug volatilization box. The pillow core has a conveniently accessible concave cavity to hold the medicine. Moreover, the amount of medicine used is reduced, requiring only a small amount of medicine to form a drug volatilization area above the pillow, minimizing the impact on the pillow core's support performance and ensuring a comfortable sleeping experience.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows: A pillow with a built-in drug vaporization box includes a pillow core, a pillowcase, and a drug box. The drug box is characterized in that it is placed in a concave cavity on the bottom surface of the pillow core, and the surface of the drug box has several ventilation holes. Several ventilation channels communicating with the concave cavity are distributed inside the pillow core, with both ends extending to the top surface of the pillow core and the top wall of the concave cavity, forming openings. The pillowcase covers the pillow core and the drug box. This utility model requires only a small amount of drug to achieve the therapeutic and sleep-aiding effects of a medicinal pillow, without affecting the original comfort and good support of the pillow core. When in use, the medicine box containing the medication is located in the concave cavity at the bottom of the pillow core. The medication evaporates into the concave cavity through the ventilation holes, then exits through the ventilation channels to the opening on the top surface of the pillow core, and finally diffuses around the pillow through the pillowcase. The concave cavity is only located at the bottom of the pillow core, and its volume is controllable. Only a small area, such as the center or off-center, needs to be used to place the medicine box, and a small amount of medication is used for evaporation and dissipation. The ventilation channels are distributed and extend from one side of the concave cavity to the top surface of the pillow core, which has little impact on the elastic support of the pillow core and preserves the sleeping experience of the pillow.

[0005] As a further improvement and supplement to the above technical solution, this utility model adopts the following technical measures: the ventilation channels and the concave cavities are integrally formed with the pillow core. The concave cavities can be integrally foamed using a mold during pillow core production. The inner wall surface of the concave cavity is smooth and compact, making it difficult for volatile drug molecules to enter the pillow core, allowing them to volatilize normally and reach the top of the pillow core. The ventilation channels are also integrally foamed using a pre-set support mold during pillow core production. After foaming, the support mold is removed, resulting in complete ventilation channels.

[0006] The bottom surface of the pillow core is provided with multiple recesses and matching medicine boxes. The recesses can also be multiple and dispersed on the bottom surface of the pillow core. The opening on the top surface of the pillow core and the corresponding ventilation channel are connected to the nearest recess, reducing the inclination of the ventilation channel and preventing interference and increased manufacturing difficulty caused by the lower sections of each ventilation channel being too close to the same recess. At the same time, it can also separate some medicines that are not suitable to be placed in one recess.

[0007] The shape of the concave cavity matches the outer contour of the medicine box. When the medicine box is placed in the concave cavity, the sidewall of the concave cavity matches the periphery of the medicine box to limit its position. Specifically, the matching of the shape of the concave cavity with the outer contour of the medicine box means that the sidewall of the cavity matches the periphery of the medicine box to limit its position, preventing the medicine box from becoming loose in the cavity and making abnormal noises that could affect sleep.

[0008] A gap is left between the top wall of the concave cavity and the top surface of the medicine box to form a mixing space. The mixing space serves as a transition area between the connecting vent and the medicine box, temporarily storing the volatile drug. The volatile drug is uniformly mixed with the air entering through the vent in the mixing space, and then dispersed upwards through the openings on the top surface of the pillow core along each vent. If there is no gap to form a mixing space, the opening end of the vent in the top wall of the concave cavity may be close to the position of the unvented part on the top surface of the medicine box, causing the vent to fail.

[0009] The top wall of the concave cavity is provided with multiple parallel grooves as airflow guide channels. All the openings of the top wall of the concave cavity are located within each airflow guide channel, and the common wall between two adjacent airflow guide channels forms a downwardly extending rib. The lower end face of each vent is located on the inner wall of the airflow guide channel, avoiding the space occupation problem caused by the elongation of the vent projection formed by the vent being obliquely set on the top wall of the concave cavity in the horizontal direction. The rib can touch the medicine box downwards, avoiding the top wall of the concave cavity directly touching the vent of the medicine box, which would block the lower end of the vent and render the vent ineffective, thus affecting the volatilization effect of the medicine box.

[0010] The pillowcase has an openable and closable opening on its bottom surface corresponding to the medicine box. The opening facilitates the removal and placement of the medicine box, allowing users to add or replace medication as needed. The bottom of the medicine box can also have an opening for a closable lid, allowing users to easily access and store medication.

[0011] The pillowcase has an open inner sleeve on its bottom surface that matches the shape of the concave cavity. The opening structure is located at the open end of the inner sleeve, and the medicine box is stored in the inner sleeve. The medicine box is placed in the concave cavity of the pillow core together with the inner sleeve. The combination of the inner sleeve and the concave cavity provides double-layer structural restraint for the medicine box, while ensuring that the medicine box does not come into contact with the pillow core. When the pillow core is made of latex material, this can prevent the latex pillow core from aging and the medicine box from sticking together, which would make it inconvenient to take out and put in the medicine box.

[0012] The ventilation channels extend radially upwards from one side of the concave cavity and are distributed throughout the interior of the pillow core. This radial distribution of ventilation channels ensures that the opening area on the top surface of the pillow core is much larger than the opening area on the top wall of the lower concave cavity. Consequently, the medicine in the medicine box inside the pillow core can evaporate and cover a large area above the pillow core, saving on the amount of medicine used and improving drug utilization efficiency, thus effectively reducing the manufacturing cost of the medicinal pillow.

[0013] The top surface of the pillow core is covered with openings that connect to air channels, arranged in an array or matrix. Each opening connects to a corresponding air channel, allowing for extensive drug volatilization above the pillow and enhancing its therapeutic and sleep-aiding effects.

[0014] The beneficial technical effects of this invention are as follows: Only a small amount of medication is needed to achieve the therapeutic and sleep-aiding effects of a medicated pillow. The medicine box is located in a recessed cavity at the bottom of the pillow core. The planar projection of the medicine box is relatively small compared to the projection area of ​​the pillow core, minimizing the impact of the volatile medication's venting channels on the pillow core structure and maintaining the original comfortable sleeping feel and support of the pillow core. Furthermore, the recessed cavity at the bottom of the pillow core where the medicine box is placed also has parallel airflow guide channels to divert the volatile medication to the venting channels for output. The venting channels are radially distributed within the pillow core, effectively expanding the area covered by the medication's evaporation above the pillow. The venting channels are integrally formed with the pillow core, and the inner wall surface of the channels has good airtightness, ensuring that the medication only diffuses along the venting channels and does not seep into the pillow core itself. The medicine box is located at the bottom of the pillow core for easy access and removal, and the bottom of the medicine box also has an openable cover for adding / replacing medication.

[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0031] like Figures 1-2As shown, Embodiment 1 is a pillow with a built-in drug evaporation box, including a pillow core 1, a pillowcase 2, and a medicine box 3 for storing drugs. The medicine box 3 is placed in a cavity 5 on the bottom surface of the pillow core 1. The shape of the cavity 5 matches the outer contour of the medicine box 3. When the medicine box 3 is placed in the cavity 5, the side wall of the cavity 5 matches the periphery of the medicine box 3 to limit the position of the medicine box 3. The height of the top surface of the medicine box does not exceed the height of the top wall of the cavity 5. The surface of the medicine box 3 has several ventilation holes 4 to allow the drugs inside to evaporate outward. Several ventilation channels 6 connecting the cavity 5 are distributed inside the pillow core 1. The two ends of the ventilation channels 6 extend to the top surface of the pillow core 1 and the top wall of the cavity 5 to form openings. The opening on the top surface of the pillow core 1 is the upper opening 12, and the opening on the top wall of the cavity 5 is the lower opening 13. The pillowcase 2 wraps around the pillow core 1 and the medicine box 3. When the pillowcase 2 is not removable and the bottom surface does not have an opening, the medicine box 3 can be used for single use.

[0032] like Figure 2 The ventilation channels 6 shown extend radially upward from one side of the concave cavity 5 and are distributed inside the pillow core 1. The top surface of the pillow core 1 is covered with openings that connect to the ventilation channels 6. The openings are arranged in an array or matrix. In this embodiment, the array arrangement is preferred.

[0033] In this embodiment, a medicine box containing the medication is placed in a recessed cavity at the bottom of the pillow core. The medication in the box evaporates into the cavity through ventilation holes on its surface, then exits through ventilation channels to the opening on the top surface of the pillow core, and finally diffuses around the pillow through the pillowcase. The recessed cavity is only located at the bottom of the pillow core, and its volume is controllable. Only a small area, such as the center of the bottom surface of the pillow core, is needed to place the medicine box. Simultaneously, the ventilation channels are distributed and extend from one side of the recessed cavity towards the top surface of the pillow core, minimizing the impact on the elastic support of the pillow core and maintaining the original sleeping experience. The recessed cavity can also be positioned off-center at the bottom of the pillow core. When the pillow is in use, only a small amount of medication is needed to evaporate and release its aroma, achieving the auxiliary therapeutic and sleep-aiding functions of a medicated pillow. The pillowcase is usually made of breathable fabric, wrapping around the pillow core without affecting the evaporation and aroma of the medication. Furthermore, the medicine box can be replaced with a medicine packet or other containers for storing medication.

[0034] Furthermore, to facilitate the retrieval and placement of the medicine box, the pillowcase 2 has an openable and closable opening structure on its bottom surface corresponding to the medicine box 3. The opening structure can be made using a zipper, Velcro, or snaps, etc., in conjunction with the pillowcase. In this embodiment, a zipper 10 is preferably installed on the pillowcase to create the opening structure. As shown in the figure, the opening structure forms a waist-shaped hole when opened. The opening structure consists of a sewn section 9 on the long side corresponding to the waist-shaped hole and the remaining zipper section. The projection shape of the medicine box on the bottom surface of the pillowcase matches the waist-shaped hole. The open shape of the waist-shaped hole facilitates the installation of a zipper on the bottom surface of the pillowcase. Simultaneously, the shape of the medicine box adapts to the waist-shaped hole, and there are no sharp corners protruding from the perimeter of the medicine box, making the retrieval and placement operation comfortable and convenient. Furthermore, to allow users to add or replace medications in the medicine box themselves, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the bottom of the medicine box 3 is also provided with an opening 3-2 to install an openable and closable lid 3-1, which can be operated by opening the lid. Various medicines such as traditional Chinese medicine, essential oils, and aromatherapy can be placed inside the medicine box. The medicine can be in solid, paste, or even liquid form. When the medicine is liquid, it can be mixed with cotton fibers to form a liquid-carrying cotton ball. To further facilitate the storage of medicines, the medicines can also be pre-placed in a storage container smaller than the medicine box, such as the inner box 14 shown in the figure, through a box-in-box or medicine bag method. The inner box also has ventilation holes. The inner box is then placed into the medicine box 3. The medicine box 3 can also be provided with a partition 3-3 to separate the medicines.

[0035] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the pillow core 1 can also be provided with multiple recesses 5 and matching medicine boxes 3. When multiple recesses are distributed, the openings on the top surface of the pillow core and the corresponding ventilation channels are connected to the nearest recess, reducing the inclination of the ventilation channels, especially the ventilation channels where the openings on the top surface of the pillow core are far from the recesses. This prevents interference and increased manufacturing difficulty caused by the lower sections of each ventilation channel being too close to the same recess, and also allows for the separation of some medicines whose properties are not suitable for being placed in one recess. For example... Figure 5 As shown, the pillow core 1 has a concave cavity on each of its left and right sides on its bottom surface, and each concave cavity contains a medicine box 3.

[0036] Furthermore, both the ventilation channel 6 and the recessed cavity 5 are integrally formed with the pillow core 1. Commonly used pillow cores are porous materials made from latex or sponge through a foaming process. The recessed cavity is integrally foamed using a mold during pillow core production. The inner wall surface of the recessed cavity is smooth and compact, making it difficult for volatile drug molecules to enter the pillow core. Instead, they can evaporate normally and reach the top of the pillow core. If subsequent processing methods such as drilling or cutting are used, it will create porosity on the inner wall surface of the recessed cavity, allowing volatile drugs to seep into the pillow core instead of flowing along the ventilation channel. Similarly, the ventilation channel is also integrally foamed using a pre-set support mold during pillow core production. After foaming, the support mold is removed, leaving the fully formed ventilation channel. The radial cross-section of the ventilation channel can be circular, rhomboid, elliptical, or any other common and easily manufactured regular shape.

[0037] like Figures 6-9As shown, Example 2 is also a pillow with a built-in drug vaporization box. The main difference from Example 1 is that the pillowcase 2 has an open inner sleeve 11 on its bottom surface that matches the shape of the concave cavity 5. The downward-opening inner sleeve 11 can be sewn separately onto the bottom surface of the pillowcase 2. The opening structure on the bottom surface of the pillowcase 2 is located at the open end of the inner sleeve 11, and it is also made with a zipper 10, just like in Example 1. The drug box 3 is stored in the inner sleeve 11. At the same time, a gap can be left between the top wall of the concave cavity 5 and the top surface of the drug box 3 to form a mixing space 7 that allows the volatile drug to mix with the air as a transition area. This prevents the ventilation channel from failing because the opening end of the top wall of the concave cavity is just touching the position of the unventilated position on the top surface of the drug box. The rest can be the same as in Example 1. The design of leaving a gap between the top wall of the concave cavity and the top surface of the drug box to form a mixing space can also be used alone in Example 1 to improve the volatilization effect after the drug is mixed with the air.

[0038] The inner sleeve and the concave cavity work together to provide double-layered confinement for the medicine box, preventing direct contact between the medicine box and the pillow core. For common latex pillow cores, this prevents inconvenience caused by latex aging and the medicine box sticking together. The inner sleeve can be made of the same breathable material as the pillowcase, without affecting the evaporation and dissipation of the medicine; the mixing space created by the gaps allows the evaporating medicine from the medicine box to mix with the air in the concave cavity before dissipating through the ventilation channels.

[0039] Furthermore, such as Figures 10-13 As shown, the top wall of the concave cavity 5 can also be provided with multiple parallel and equidistant grooves as airflow guide channels 8. All the lower openings 13 of the top wall of the concave cavity 5 are distributed in each airflow guide channel 8, and the common wall between two adjacent airflow guide channels 8 forms a downwardly extending rib 8-1. The parallel airflow guide channels can further divert and gather the volatile drugs in the mixing space. After entering each airflow guide channel, the volatile drugs are then discharged outward through each ventilation channel connected to the same airflow guide channel. The lower end opening face of each ventilation channel is located on the inner wall of the airflow guide channel, which solves the problem of space occupation caused by the oblique setting of the ventilation channel forming an elongated opening projection on the top wall of the concave cavity in the horizontal direction. At the same time, the ribs abut against the medicine box downward, preventing the top wall of the concave cavity from directly abutting the vent of the medicine box, which would block the lower end opening of the ventilation channel and cause the ventilation channel to fail, thus ensuring the normal operation of the medicine box to volatilize and dissipate odors.

[0040] The extension direction of the airflow guide groove 8 can be as follows: Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, extend along the long side of the pillow, or as... Figures 12-14 As shown, extend along the short side of the pillow.
