Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of bedding technology, specifically to a cervical pillow. Background Technology
[0002] The most common types of pillows on the market today include: latex pillows, memory foam pillows, TPE pillows, down pillows, fluffy fiber pillows, soft tube pillows, buckwheat hull and other grain husk pillows, and herb pillows such as mugwort pillows. Each of these pillows has its own advantages, but their applicability is also quite limited.
[0003] Latex pillows, memory foam pillows, and TPE pillows offer some support and each has its own unique softness and feel, but their drawbacks are also obvious. First, their fixed shape leads to a fixed height, suitable only for a small group of people, and cannot meet the practical needs of independently adjusting the height for back or side sleeping. Second, the fixed firmness limits the choice of comfort and cannot meet the needs of people with cervical spine problems who prefer a firmer cervical support area and softer areas elsewhere; the idea of different firmnesses in different areas of a single pillow cannot be realized. Third, the fixed pillow curvature cannot conform to the cervical spine curvature of most people. Fourth, while TPE pillows are washable, latex and memory foam pillows are not, making long-term cleanliness uncertain.
[0004] Down pillows and fluffy fiber pillows offer a unique softness and comfort, but their drawbacks are equally apparent. They lack cervical support, meaning that in most cases, the pillow rests on the back of the head, with the cervical spine not being supported. Even those products that do have cervical support areas generally provide insufficient support.
[0005] Soft tube pillows, buckwheat hull and other grain husk pillows, and herbal pillows with mugwort and other herbs—these types of pillows use fluid particle fillings, and they also have significant drawbacks. First, while fluid particles can be manually shaped, they also introduce high instability, requiring multiple manual adjustments throughout the night, disrupting sleep. Second, although some products have partitioned structures that allow for relatively stable height, removing or inserting these fluid particle fillings is very troublesome, easily resulting in a mess all over the bed. Third, increasing the pillow's height requires continuously adding fluid particles, which increases firmness along with height, failing to meet the practical requirement of maintaining consistent firmness while increasing height. Fourth, while soft tube pillows are washable, grain husk and herbal pillows are not, making long-term cleanliness uncertain. Utility Model Content
[0006] Therefore, this application provides a cervical pillow to solve the problems of existing technologies where the height and firmness of the same pillow are limited in scope, and the adjustment effect is singular and cumbersome.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution:
[0008] A cervical pillow includes an independent but connected upper body and a lower body. Both the upper and lower bodies have multiple partition strips that divide them into a fossa area, a cervical support area, and two side-sleeping areas. The fossa area and the cervical support area are located between the two side-sleeping areas, with the fossa area positioned behind the cervical support area. Each section of the upper body is filled with pads of different materials and independent fluidized particle packs. The lower body is also filled with pads. Both the upper and lower bodies have openings for placing and removing the pads and the independent fluidized particle packs.
[0009] Optionally, the partition strip is arranged at an angle such that the anterior length of the cervical spine support area and the fossa area is less than the posterior length, the anterior length of the side sleeping area is greater than the posterior length, and the anterior length of the side sleeping area is equal to the posterior length of the fossa area.
[0010] Optionally, the height of the side sleeping area is not lower than the height of the cervical spine support area and the fossa area, and the height of the cervical spine support area is not lower than the height of the fossa area.
[0011] Optionally, the partition strips on both sides of the fossa region inside the upper body extend from the opening at the rear end to the middle of the fossa region, so that the front side of the fossa region is connected to the two lateral sleeping areas.
[0012] Optionally, the bottom of the independent flowing particle pack in the cervical spine support area of the upper body is provided with an adjustment buckle, which is used to adjust the longitudinal fitting length of the cervical spine support area.
[0013] Optionally, the openings are respectively located on the front side of the side sleeping area, the front side of the cervical spine support area, and the back side of the fossa area.
[0014] Optionally, the upper body has multiple fluid particle packs with different hardness in the cervical spine support area, and the fluid particle packs are replaceable; the lower body has multiple pads in the cervical spine support area.
[0015] Optionally, the side sleeping area of the upper body is provided with a flow particle pack and a pad, and the side sleeping area of the lower body is provided with a pad, wherein the pads in the side sleeping areas of the upper body and the lower body are made of different materials.
[0016] Optionally, multiple fluffy fiber pads are provided in the fossa region of both the upper and lower main bodies.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. The pillow consists of an upper and lower main body, each with independent zones, allowing for independent adjustment of the cervical spine support area, the fossa area, and the side-sleeping area. The upper main body, which is in contact with the skin, has adjustable firmness, while the lower main body's overall height can be adjusted by changing the number of pads, thus achieving independent adjustment of the firmness and height of the three zones. This application can be adjusted to suit the personalized needs of most people, including height, firmness, cervical spine curvature fit, and head tilt angle. Users can easily change the firmness and support when sleeping on their back and the different sleeping sensations when sleeping on their side, based on recent cervical spine strain. The pillow's height and firmness can be quickly and easily adjusted independently; it is easy to operate and is washable by hand or machine.
[0019] 2. The upper part of the cervical spine support area is equipped with multiple replaceable independent flowing particle packs of different firmness to match various sleeping sensations; the lower part is equipped with multiple pads for height adjustment, so that the firmness of the upper part and the overall height can be adjusted independently.
[0020] 3. The upper and lower main bodies of the side sleeping area are equipped with multiple independent pads and independent flow particle packs of different materials, allowing users to change to a variety of different sleeping experiences at any time.
[0021] 4. Multiple independent, fluffy fiber pads are installed within the upper and lower main bodies of the fossa area, allowing for quick, easy, and multi-angle adjustment of the head's angle when tilted back. Unlike the support provided by the cervical spine support area, the back of the head will feel softly wrapped.
[0022] 5. The bottom of the independent flowing particle pack in the cervical spine support area of the upper main body is equipped with an adjustment buckle. The adjustment buckle is used to match the length of the user's neck.
[0023] 6. Since each section is a trapezoidal structure and the front length of the side sleeping area is equal to the back length of the fossa area, the fiber pads that may not be needed after the fossa area is removed can be placed in the upper main body of the side sleeping area as spare pads, avoiding waste of accessories and making production and use more convenient.
[0024] 7. The design of connecting the front side of the fossa area within the upper body with the two lateral sleeping areas allows for the release of flowing particles, enabling free and unrestricted flow within the upper body. Attached Figure Description

[0031] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0032] In the description of this application: unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more. The terms "first," "second," "third," etc., in this application are intended to distinguish the objects referred to and do not have any special meaning in terms of technical connotation (e.g., they should not be construed as an emphasis on importance or order). Expressions such as "comprising," "including," and "having" also mean "not limited to" (certain units, components, materials, steps, etc.).
[0033] The terms used in this application, such as "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and "middle," are generally used to indicate the general relative positional relationship for the purpose of intuitive understanding by referring to the accompanying drawings, and are not absolute limitations on the positional relationship in the actual product.
[0034] A type of cervical pillow, as shown in the reference Figures 1-3 It includes an independent but connected upper body 1 and a lower body 2. Both the upper body 1 and the lower body 2 are equipped with multiple partition strips 3, which divide the upper body 1 and the lower body 2 into a fossa area 4, a cervical spine support area 5, and two side sleeping areas 6, respectively. The fossa area 4 and the cervical spine support area 5 are located between the two side sleeping areas 6, and the fossa area 4 is located behind the cervical spine support area 5.
[0035] In this embodiment, the partition strip 3 is arranged vertically and obliquely inside the pillow, dividing the different sections into trapezoidal structures with different front and rear lengths. The front length of the cervical support area 5 and the pituitary region 4 is shorter than the rear length, the front length of the side sleeping area 6 is longer than the rear length, and the front length of the side sleeping area 6 is equal to the rear length of the pituitary region 4. Since the area required for the neck is relatively small, the front-to-back width of the cervical support area 5 is smaller than that of the pituitary region 4. Furthermore, to better fit the neck, the front of the cervical support area 5 can be designed to protrude forward in an arc shape.
[0036] The upper body 1 is filled with pads of different materials and independent fluidized particle packs in each section. The lower body 2 is filled with pads. Both the upper body 1 and the lower body 2 are provided with openings for taking out and placing the pads and independent fluidized particle packs. The openings are respectively located on the front side of the side sleeping area 6, the front side of the cervical spine support area 5, and the back side of the fossa area 4. In specific implementation, the openings can be set to a zipper 7 closure method.
[0037] Each zipper 7 has an extension liner 8, which consists of two layers, connecting the upper main body 1 and the lower main body 2 respectively. When the filling inside the pillow needs to be changed, open the zipper 7, pull out the extension liner 8, and then adjust the filling in the corresponding section; after adjustment, tuck the extension liner 8 into the pillow and close the zipper 7.
[0038] Specifically, the upper body 1 and lower body 2 of the cervical spine support area 5 utilize flowing particle packs and height-increasing pads, respectively. The upper body 1 of the cervical spine support area 5 contains various independent flowing particle packs of different firmnesses for easy replacement, allowing users to choose the appropriate firmness. The lower body 2 of the cervical spine support area 5 contains multiple independent pads, allowing users to adjust the height of the cervical spine support area 5 by removing or inserting the pads. The materials used for the flowing particle packs and pads can include PE tubing, TPE tubing, TPEE fiber, etc.
[0039] The upper body 1 and lower body 2 of the side sleeping area 6 utilize flowing particle packs and multiple individual pads of different materials. These pads not only increase or decrease the height of the side sleeping area 6, but also allow for selection as a skin-contact layer based on the unique sleeping feel of each material. The materials used for the flowing particle packs and individual pads include PE tubing, TPEE fiber, and fluffy fiber.
[0040] Within the upper body 1 and lower body 2 of the fossa region 4, fiber pads are used. Multiple independent fiber pads allow for quick, easy, and multi-angle adjustment of the head's tilt angle by increasing the angle of retraction with each pad removed, and vice versa. The fiber pads are made of fluffy, fine fibers, providing a soft, enveloping feel to the back of the head.
[0041] To improve the versatility of the pads, each section is designed as a trapezoidal structure, with the front length of the side sleeping area 6 equal to the back length of the fossa area 4. This allows fiber-encased pads that may not be needed after the fossa area 4 is removed to be placed inside the upper main body 1 of the side sleeping area 6 as spare pads, avoiding waste of parts and making production and use more convenient.
[0042] Because some people are not accustomed to using zoned pillows, the pituitary region 4 and the side sleeping region 6 within the upper main body 1 are designed as semi-separated areas. Specifically, the partition strips 3 on both sides of the pituitary region 4 extend only from the rear end to the middle of the pituitary region 4, allowing the front of the pituitary region 4 to connect with the two side sleeping regions 6. This allows the original filling material of the side sleeping regions 6 and the pituitary region 4 to be removed, releasing the particles from the fluid particle packs, enabling them to flow freely within the pituitary region 4 and the side sleeping regions 6, thus reducing the limitations of a fixed zoned structure.
[0043] Furthermore, since users have different neck lengths, an adjustment buckle is provided at the bottom of the independent flowing particle pack in the cervical spine support area 5 of the upper main body 1 to adjust the length to fit the neck and meet the needs of people with different neck lengths.
[0044] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way (as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features). For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described; these embodiments not explicitly written should also be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
