Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of pillow technology, specifically a sleep pillow. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of modern living standards, people are paying more and more attention to sleep quality.

[0003] Regular pillows on the market have the same firmness and thickness. Users often find it difficult to fall asleep and experience light sleep with frequent awakenings. They often feel discomfort in their cervical spine and may even experience tinnitus when their ears are pressed. It is also inconvenient to turn over when lying on their side, making it difficult to adjust their sleeping position and get a comfortable rest throughout the night.

[0004] In addition, the conventional pillow materials on the market are not breathable enough, which can easily cause a stuffy feeling, leading to excessive sweating at night and affecting sleep quality.

[0005] Therefore, the structure of pillows in the prior art has room for further improvement. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of this, and addressing the technical problems of existing pillows having uniform overall hardness and thickness, which often cause discomfort in the cervical spine when users use them, making it difficult to adjust posture when turning over in side sleeping, and even easily causing tinnitus when pressing on the ears, this application provides a sleep pillow that, by changing the pillow's structure, achieves precise zoned support, which can improve the pressure on the user's cervical spine, allowing the user's head to naturally and slowly sink downwards when sleeping on their side, reducing pressure on the ears, face, and shoulders, making it easier for the user to turn over and adjust their posture, achieving a deep sleep effect, and improving the user's sleep quality.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: a sleep pillow, comprising: The pillow body and the support layer are provided. The pillow body is provided with an installation groove, and the support layer is disposed in the installation groove. The hardness of the support layer is greater than that of the pillow body. The pillow body includes a front support and a rear support, which are connected. The front support is used to support the user's neck, and the rear support is used to support the user's head. The upper surface of the front support has a wave-shaped structure.

[0008] Compared to existing technologies, this pillow achieves precise, zoned support by using a separate pillow body and support layer. The support layer is firmer than the pillow body, allowing the pillow to gently conform to the user's head. When the user uses the pillow, the head slowly sinks downwards, supported by the support layer, providing stable head support. This avoids pressure on the face, ears, and shoulders caused by uniform firmness, and effectively prevents excessive head and neck sagging, protecting cervical spine health. The upper surface of the front support features a wave-like structure. This undulating structure increases the contact area with the neck, distributing pressure and reducing localized pressure. It provides precise support and a close fit to the neck and shoulders when the user is lying on their back or side, allowing for effortless turning and promoting deep sleep, thus improving sleep quality. Simultaneously, the wave-like structure facilitates air circulation, improves breathability, reduces stuffiness and sweating, and enhances the sleep experience.

[0009] Preferably, in the vertical direction, the highest point of the front support is higher than the highest point of the rear support.

[0010] In this embodiment, by setting the height difference, the user's neck can receive more support when lying on their back, effectively relieving neck pressure and avoiding cervical spine injury caused by lateral bending or loss of balance due to uniform height.

[0011] Preferably, the bottom of the support layer is provided with a head-shaped groove, which is recessed towards the top of the support layer.

[0012] In this embodiment, by designing a reasonable width and depth, the "golden size" is most suitable for supporting the user's head weight and relieving cervical spine pressure. This provides a precise and stable support point for the user's sleep, ensuring that the head and neck receive scientific and effective care and improving overall sleep quality.

[0013] Preferably, the shape of the support layer is substantially the same as the shape of the pillow body.

[0014] In this embodiment, the device can evenly support the user's head and neck, avoiding localized pressure concentration and improving user comfort and support.

[0015] Preferably, the front support is provided with a neck groove, which is recessed toward the support layer and simulates the curvature of the human neck.

[0016] In this embodiment, when the user is lying on their back or side, the neck groove can support the user's neck, and the neck can be stably located in the neck groove, providing a secure and enveloping feeling.

[0017] Preferably, the pillow body also includes a shoulder and neck support, one end of which is connected to the front support, and the other end protrudes away from the rear support, and the shoulder and neck support simulates the curvature of the human shoulder.

[0018] In this embodiment, the shoulder and neck support can better support and conform to the user's shoulders, thoracic spine, and cervical spine, which helps to relieve the muscles in the shoulders, thoracic spine, and cervical spine and improve the comfort during sleep.

[0019] Preferably, the posterior support includes a side sleeping part, a head fossa part, and a posterior head support part. The side sleeping part is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the head fossa part. The side sleeping part is located between the posterior head support part and the shoulder and neck support part. The posterior head support part simulates the curve of the human posterior head. The head cavity is an arc-shaped concave structure.

[0020] In this embodiment, the head fossa is used to accommodate and support the back of the head, and the back-head support part simulates the curve of the human back of the head to provide precise support and reduce head pressure.

[0021] Preferably, the side-sleeping part is provided with an ear socket groove, which is recessed toward the support layer and is used to support the user's ear or face when sleeping on their side.

[0022] In this embodiment, the ear socket can effectively disperse or release the pressure of the pillow on the face and ears when sleeping on the side. Whether sleeping on the back or side, it will be more comfortable and fit the user's face and ears better, providing a certain support, improving the user's sleep quality, and reducing the pressure on the face and ears when sleeping on the side.

[0023] Preferably, in the vertical direction, the highest point of the lateral sleeping portion is higher than the highest point of the head cavity; The highest point of the posterior head support is higher than the highest point of the cephalic region.

[0024] In this embodiment, when sleeping on one's side, the appropriate height difference design can ensure that the neck is comfortably supported, reduce pressure on the cervical spine, avoid numbness or discomfort caused by improper neck angle, and improve the user's sleep quality.

[0025] Preferably, the pillow body is made of slow-rebound memory foam, and the support layer is made of high-resilience sponge.

[0026] In this embodiment, when the user is lying down, the high-resilience sponge and the slow-rebound memory foam form a dynamic response. During the head-down process, the high-resilience sponge provides stable support first to prevent the head from sinking too much, while the slow-rebound memory foam slowly adapts to the head and neck contour to achieve uniform pressure distribution.

[0031] Those skilled in the art should understand that in the disclosure of this application, the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limitations on this application.

[0032] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, see below.Figures 1 to 7 illustrate.

[0033] This embodiment provides a sleep pillow, which is applied in the field of pillow technology, specifically, as follows: Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a sleep pillowcase is placed inside the pillowcase, which is made of non-slip and breathable fabric. It is thin and breathable, wicking away moisture and sweat during sleep, and has a skin-like feel, reducing pressure on skin tissue. The sleep pillow includes a pillow body 1 and a support layer 2. The four corners of the pillow body 1 are rounded, and the pillow body 1 has a mounting groove 11 that is recessed towards the top of the pillow body 1. The support layer 2 is located within the mounting groove 11, and its size is adapted to the mounting groove 11. The support layer 2 is firmer than the pillow body 1, allowing the pillow body 1 to gently conform to the user's head. When the user uses the pillow, the head slowly sinks downwards, supported by the support layer 2, providing stable support for the head. This avoids pressure on the face, ears, and shoulders caused by uniform firmness, and effectively prevents excessive sinking of the neck and head, protecting cervical spine health. The pillow body 1 includes a front support 12 and a rear support 13. The front support 12 and the rear support 13 are connected. The front support 12 is used to support the user's neck, and the rear support 13 is used to support the user's head, so as to achieve precise zoned support.

[0034] Among them, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the upper surface of the front support 12 has a wave-like structure. This undulating structure increases the contact area with the user's neck, distributes pressure, and reduces localized pressure. This allows for precise support and a close fit to the neck and shoulders when the user is lying on their back or side, making turning over effortless and promoting deep sleep, thus improving sleep quality. Simultaneously, the wave-like structure facilitates air circulation, enhances breathability, reduces stuffiness and sweating, and improves the sleep experience.

[0035] Furthermore, such as Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the shape of the support layer 2 is basically the same as that of the pillow body 1, meaning the surface contour of the support layer 2 is essentially the same as that of the pillow body 1. This allows for even support of the user's head and neck, preventing concentrated local pressure and improving user comfort and support. The pillow body 1 uses slow-rebound memory foam, which conforms to the curve of the head and neck, relaxing muscle pressure. The support layer 2 uses high-resilience foam, which provides sufficient physiological and healthy height. When the user lies down, the high-resilience foam and the slow-rebound memory foam create a dynamic response. During head compression, the high-resilience foam prioritizes providing stable support, preventing excessive head sinking, while the slow-rebound memory foam gradually adapts to the head and neck contour, achieving even pressure distribution. This effectively solves the problem of cervical spine unsupported or muscle compression that is common with traditional single-material pillows.

[0036] Among them, such as Figures 5 to 7As shown, the bottom of the support layer 2 is provided with a headrest groove 21. The headrest groove 21 has a circular structure and is recessed towards the top of the support layer 2. The headrest groove 21 is located in the middle of the support layer 2. In the horizontal direction, the width of the headrest groove 21 is half the total width of the support layer 2. In the vertical direction, the height of the headrest groove 21 is less than or equal to half the height of the support layer 2. By designing a reasonable width and depth, it is the "golden size" that best supports the user's head weight and relieves cervical spine pressure. It can provide a precise and stable support point for the user's sleep, ensuring that the head and neck receive scientific and effective care and improving overall sleep quality. For example, when the total width of the support layer 2 is 280mm, the width of the headrest groove 21 is 140mm, and the height of the headrest groove 21 is 40mm or 20mm.

[0037] like Figures 3 to 4 As shown, in the vertical direction, the highest point of the front support 12 is higher than the highest point of the rear support 13. This height difference allows the user's neck to receive more adequate support when lying supine, effectively relieving neck pressure and preventing cervical spine injury caused by lateral bending or loss of balance due to uniform height. In the horizontal direction, the length of the front support 12 is greater than the length of the rear support 13, while the width of the front support 12 is smaller than the width of the rear support 13. This difference in length and width more effectively distributes pressure on the neck and head, avoiding localized compression and reducing tenderness and poor blood circulation.

[0038] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the side of the front support 12 and the side of the rear support 13 are connected by an arc transition or a slope transition. The rear side of the rear support 13 has an arc-shaped concave structure. The front support 12 and the rear support 13 are connected by an arc transition, which can naturally conform to the transition curve of the human neck and head, reduce the pressure caused by sudden angle changes, and provide smoother support when the user turns over, enhancing the comfort and stability of use.

[0039] It should be noted that the front support 12 can also be connected to the rear support 13 via a slope transition.

[0040] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the side of the front support 12 away from the rear support 13 has an arc-shaped concave structure. The front support 12 is concave towards the rear support 13. The front support 12 is provided with a neck groove 121. The neck protrusion is located in the middle of the front support 12. The neck groove 121 is concave towards the support layer 2. The neck groove 121 simulates the curvature of the human neck. When the user lies on their back or side, the neck groove 121 can support the user's neck. The neck can be stably located in the neck groove 121, providing a sense of safe envelopment.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the pillow body 1 also includes a shoulder and neck support 14. One end of the shoulder and neck support 14 is connected to the front support 12, and the other end of the shoulder and neck support 14 protrudes away from the rear support 13. The shoulder and neck support 14 is connected to the middle of the front support 12, that is, the middle of the arc-shaped concave part of the front support 12. The shoulder and neck support 14 simulates the curvature of the human shoulder, which can better support and conform to the user's shoulder, thoracic spine, and cervical spine, helping to relieve the muscles in the shoulder, thoracic spine, and cervical spine, and improve the comfort during sleep. The shoulder and neck support 14 is connected to the neck groove 121 through an arc transition. A shoulder and neck groove 122 is provided between the shoulder and neck support 14 and the front support 12. The shoulder and neck groove 122 can conform to the curve of the human shoulder and neck. When the user lies on their side, it can effectively distribute the shoulder pressure and avoid the shoulder from soreness caused by prolonged pressure, making the user more comfortable and unobtrusive when turning over.

[0042] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the rear support 13 includes a side-sleeping section 131, a head fossa section 132, and a posterior head support section 133. The side-sleeping section 131 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the head fossa section 132. The side-sleeping section 131 is located between the posterior head support section 133 and the shoulder and neck support 14. The head fossa groove 21 is correspondingly provided to the head fossa section 132. The head fossa section 132 is used to accommodate the back of the head and support the head. The posterior head support section 133 simulates the curve of the back of the human head, providing precise support and reducing head pressure. In the vertical direction, the highest point of the side-sleeping section 131 is higher than the highest point of the head fossa section 132. When sleeping on one's side, the appropriate height difference design can ensure that the neck receives comfortable support, reduce pressure on the cervical spine, avoid numbness or discomfort caused by improper neck angle, and improve the user's sleep quality.

[0043] Among them, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the side-sleeping part 131 is provided with an ear socket groove 1311. The ear socket groove 1311 is recessed towards the support layer 2. The ear socket groove 1311 is used to support the user's ear or face when sleeping on their side. The ear socket groove 1311 has an arc transition, which can effectively disperse or release the pressure of the pillow on the face and ears when sleeping on their side. Whether sleeping on their back or side, it will be more comfortable and fit the user's face and ears better. It has a certain support effect, improves the user's sleep quality, and reduces the pressure on the face and ears when sleeping on their side.

[0044] The present application has been described in detail above. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present application. The descriptions of the embodiments above are only for the purpose of helping to understand the present application and its core ideas. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications to the present application without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
