Abstract
Description
[0001] The invention describes a type of pillowcase with a zipper similar to a toiletry bag, which contains an inflatable pillow element with a safety valve inside Fig. 1. At the end of the cushion cover similar to a toiletry bag, two elastic bands (4) are sewn on one side, in order to be able to roll up the cushion cover similar to a toiletry bag with an inflatable cushion (3) in an airless state better in order to keep it in shape and save space, so that it can be better stored in a transport case Fig. 4 fits like a kind of knapsack. The carrying case, similar to a knapsack, has a sewn-on Velcro fastener (7) and the advantage of a flap (8) sewn on the back so it can be attached to a belt. The special thing about the pillow case (1), similar to a toiletry bag, is that it has a sewn-on aluminum / styrofoam coating (5) across the entire underside, similar to the one used for window covers to protect against ice in winter.
[0002] This coating serves to absorb the cold in winter and the heat in summer. When hiking or at a football stadium in winter, the aluminum coating and the inflatable inner part absorb the cold through the air cushion. For example, when traveling by train in summer, it reflects the heat from the windshield as a travel pillow.
[0003] Another advantage is that you can store your valuables in this pillowcase, similar to a toiletry bag, without anyone suspecting that you have stored your valuables in your pillow while swimming, for example.
[0004] The problem when traveling or hiking was finding a pillow that was inflatable, travel-friendly, and compact. Even when inflated, the pillows couldn't absorb the heat or cold during use.
[0005] According to the invention, this problem was solved with the functional, inflatable travel pillow featuring an aluminum-styrofoam coating, similar to that found in ice covers found in car accessories. This coating could also be similar to the aluminum-fleece combination found in picnic blankets. The coating could also be made of silver bubble wrap. These coatings, in addition to the inflatable cushion element (3) inside the pillow, serve as a heat or cold protection shield.
