[0003] Further according to the invention, the neck support element device for supporting a neck region of a person is characterized in that the radial spatial direction is generated by free radial punctual suspension of the neck support element on the connecting element by means of a radial punctual suspension on the connecting element.

[0004] According to at least one embodiment, the neck support element device for supporting a neck region of a person is characterized in that the support element can freely oscillate radially in a direction perpendicular to the radial oscillation direction between two suspensions opposite one another along this direction and both suspensions can be or are connected to one another mechanically by means of a connector element.

[0005] According to at least one further embodiment, the support element and / or the connector module is designed in the manner of a suspended chair or in the manner of a hammock frame.

[0006] According to at least one embodiment, the connecting element is designed in the manner of a rope, a chain, a band.

[0007] According to at least one embodiment, the neck support element is formed with two separate partial bodies, which are connected to each other by means of a spacer element at a predeterminable distance or even in contact with each other, so that a protective position is achieved depending on the neck width and / or head size.

[0008] According to at least one embodiment, the spacer element is designed in the form of a rod, and the spacer element is inserted through the two partial bodies, and the two then free ends of the spacer element are connected to the respective associated suspensions of the support element by means of at least two connecting elements, in particular two elastic cables.

[0009] The partial bodies are spherical in shape.

[0010] According to at least one embodiment, the neck support element device for supporting a neck region of a person comprises a neck support element which is formed with two separate partial bodies which are connected to one another by means of a spacer element at a predeterminable distance or also in contact with one another, so that a protective position is achieved depending on the neck width and / or head size.

[0011] According to at least one embodiment, the spacer element is designed in the form of a rod, and the spacer element is inserted through the two partial bodies, and the two then free ends of the spacer element are connected to the respective associated suspensions of the support element by means of at least two connecting elements, in particular two elastic cables.

[0012] According to at least one embodiment, at least one of the partial bodies is formed with a material that is at least partially soft and / or yielding, so that the neck and / or the head are not exposed to excessive strain.

[0013] In the following, the invention described here is presented in more detail with reference to the figures and the associated description. Fig. 1 shows a neck support device 100 for supporting a neck area of ​​a person and a neck support element 200 in a front view. Fig. 2 shows this neck support element device 100 for supporting a neck area of ​​a person as well as the neck support element 200 in a perspective top view. Fig. 3 shows this neck support element device 100 for supporting a neck area of ​​a person as well as the neck support element 200 in a perspective front view and Fig. 4 in a side view.

[0014] Fig. 1 to 4 show a neck support element device 100 for supporting a neck region of a person, which comprises at least one neck support element 1 for supporting the neck, with at least one support element 2 for spatially and in the radial direction R freely suspended fastening of the neck support element 1 to the support element 2.

[0015] In addition, the Fig. 1 to 4 at least one connecting element 3, by means of which the neck support element 1 is arranged to be freely suspended in at least one spatial direction, in particular in the radial direction R, and which is fastened to the support element 2 at at least one suspension point 4 of the support element 2.

[0016] It can also be seen from the figures that the radial spatial direction R is generated by free radial punctual suspension 4, 5 of the neck support element 1 on the connecting element 3 by means of a radial punctual suspension 4, 5 on the connecting element 3.

[0017] In addition, Fig. 1 to 4 that the support element 2 can freely oscillate radially in a direction S perpendicular to the radial oscillation direction RS between two suspensions 4, 5 opposite each other along this direction and that both suspensions 4, 5 can be or are mechanically connected to each other by means of a connector element 6.

[0018] The Fig. 1 to 4 show that the support element 2 and / or the connector module 6 is designed in the manner of a suspended chair or in the manner of a hammock frame and that the connecting element 3 is designed in the manner of a rope, a chain, a band, and that the connecting element 3 is formed with an elastic material.

[0019] The figures also show that the neck support element 1 is formed with two separate partial bodies 7, 8, which are connected to one another by means of a spacer element 9 at a predeterminable distance or also in contact with one another, so that a protective position is achieved depending on the neck width and / or head size, and that the spacer element 9 is designed in the form of a rod, and the spacer element 9 is inserted through the two partial bodies 7, 8, and the two then free ends of the spacer element 9 are connected to the respective associated suspensions of the support element 2 by means of at least two connecting elements 3, in particular two elastic cables.

[0020] Furthermore, the figures show a neck support element 200, which is characterized in that it is formed with two separate partial bodies 7, 8, which are connected to one another by means of a spacer element 9 at a predeterminable distance or also in contact with one another, so that a protective position is achieved depending on the neck width and / or head size, and in that the spacer element 9 is designed in the form of a rod, and the spacer element 9 is inserted through the two partial bodies 7, 8, and the two then free ends of the spacer element 9 are connected to the respective associated suspensions of the support element 2 by means of at least two connecting elements 3, in particular two elastic cables.
