[0001] The present disclosure relates to a pillow with a sheet and a sheet. [Background technology]

[0002] 2. Description of the Related Art Pillows made of highly resilient materials are known in the art (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2008-110062 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] The pillow in Patent Document 1 discloses a structure that exerts a manipulative effect on the user. According to this pillow, by forming it from a highly resilient material, it prevents the back of the head from sinking unnecessarily when in use. As a result, the pillow can adjust the user's posture when in use and exert a manipulative effect.

[0005] On the other hand, the pillow in Patent Document 1 is made of a single homogenous material. Therefore, if the user feels that the pillow is hard, it may be difficult to adjust the feel.

[0006] The object of the present disclosure is to provide a pillow with a sheet and a sheet that allow the feel of the pillow to be easily adjusted without compromising the manipulative effect. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] A pillow with a sheet according to one embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a pillow and a resin sheet layered on the pillow, the sheet having a through hole that penetrates from the front surface to the back surface of the sheet, and the through hole has a linear shape extending along the front-to-back or width direction of the pillow.

[0008] Furthermore, a pillow with a sheet according to another embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a pillow and a resin sheet laid over the pillow, the sheet having a plurality of through holes penetrating from the front surface to the back surface of the sheet, the plurality of through holes being evenly spaced on either side of the center of the width of the pillow, and the distance between two through holes arranged on either side of the center being greater than the distance between adjacent through holes.

[0009] In addition, a pillow with a sheet according to another embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a pillow and a resin sheet laid over the pillow, the sheet being (1) a gel-like resin material packaged in a bag, or (2) crushed polyurethane foam solidified with an adhesive.

[0010] In addition, a pillow with a sheet according to another embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a pillow and a resin sheet laid over the pillow, the sheet being flat over its entire surface, (1) the sheet being a foamed resin sheet consisting only of resin, and / or (2) a cover that covers the pillow and the sheet.

[0011] In addition, a pillow with a sheet according to another embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a pillow and a resin sheet having a thickness of 0.1 mm or more and 3 mm or less and layered on the pillow, (1) the sheet is a foamed resin sheet consisting only of resin, and / or (2) a cover that covers the pillow and the sheet.

[0012] In addition, a pillow with a sheet according to another embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a pillow on which the user's head, neck, and shoulders are placed, and a resin sheet placed on the pillow, (1) the sheet being a foamed resin sheet made only of resin, and / or (2) a cover that covers the pillow and the sheet.

[0013] A foamed resin sheet according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is a sheet that is placed on the surface of a pillow on which the head is placed, is flat over its entire surface, and is made only of resin.

[0014] Furthermore, a manufacturing method for a pillow with a sheet according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is a manufacturing method for a pillow with a sheet comprising a pillow and a resin sheet layered on the pillow, in which the pillow and / or the sheet are selected after confirming that the difference in 40% compression hardness between the pillow and the sheet is 5N or more, and / or the pillow and / or the sheet are selected after confirming that the difference in resilience between the pillow and the sheet is 5% or more.

[0015] This pillow with sheet and the sheet allow the pillow to be adjusted to a desired feel. Furthermore, when in use, the user's head is placed on the pillow via the sheet. This allows the pillow with sheet to give the user the feel of the sheet, while also allowing the pillow to stably support the user's head. As a result, the pillow with sheet and the sheet allow the feel of the pillow to be easily adjusted without compromising the manipulative effect of the pillow. Effect of the Invention

[0016] According to the present disclosure, it is possible to provide a pillow with a sheet and a sheet that allow the feel of the pillow to be easily adjusted without compromising the manipulative effect. [Brief description of the drawings]

[Diagram 5] FIG. 13 is a top view showing a sheet according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0018] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. In this embodiment, a pillow with a sheet 1 that supports the back of the head of a user M will be described as an example.

[0019] The pillow with sheet 1 of this embodiment is placed on a mattress or a futon. As shown in FIG. 1, the pillow with sheet 1 is formed with a size in each of the width direction W, the front-rear direction L, and the height direction H. The pillow with sheet 1 of this embodiment is placed so that the width direction W roughly coincides with the width direction of the mattress or futon (not shown). Also, the front-rear direction L roughly coincides with the length direction of the mattress or futon. Note that, as shown in FIG. 2, the front-rear direction L is described as the side that supports the shoulders of the user M in the usage state as the front, and the side that supports the area around the top of the head as the rear.

[0020] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the pillow with sheet 1 includes a pillow body (one example of a pillow) 2, a sheet 4, and a cover 6.

[0021] A part of the body of the user M is placed on the pillow body 2 via a part of the sheet 4 and the cover 6 described later. The pillow body 2 of this embodiment mainly supports the back of the head of the user M when in use. This allows the pillow body 2 to help the user M to assume a stable posture.

[0022] The pillow body 2 is roughly the same size as the outer shape of the pillow with sheet 1. The pillow body 2 is formed so that the size in the width direction W is about 500mm to 1400mm. The size in the width direction W of the pillow body 2 may be about 200mm to 1800mm. The pillow body 2 of this embodiment is formed so that it roughly matches the size in the width direction of the mattress or futon on which the pillow with sheet 1 is placed. This allows the head of the user M to be stably supported even if the user M moves around by turning over in bed, etc.

[0023] The pillow body 2 is formed so that the size in the front-rear direction L is approximately equal to the length from the head to the shoulders of the user M. Also, the pillow body 2 is formed so that the size in the front-rear direction L is larger than the sheet 4 described below. That is, the pillow body 2 is formed so that the size in the front-rear direction L is approximately 350 mm to 800 mm. Also, the size of the pillow body 2 in the front-rear direction L may be approximately 100 mm to 900 mm.

[0024] The thickness of the pillow body 2 in the height direction H is formed to a height that can support the curvature of the back of the head of the user M. In this embodiment, the thickness of the pillow body 2 in the height direction H is formed to be about 30 mm to 200 mm. Also, the thickness of the pillow body 2 in the height direction H may be about 10 mm to 300 mm.

[0025] As described above, in this embodiment, the pillow body 2 is a generally rectangular parallelepiped shape with a length in the width direction W longer than the front-rear direction L and a thickness in the height direction H. The pillow body 2 becomes thinner from the rear side to the front side in the front-rear direction L. This allows the pillow body 2 to stably support the head of the user M along the curve of the user M's body when in use. However, the pillow body 2 is not limited to such a rectangular parallelepiped shape and can be changed to various shapes. For example, the pillow body 2 may become thinner from the front side to the rear side in the front-rear direction L, or may be flat over the entire surface.

[0026] The pillow body 2 is formed of a foamed resin material such as polyurethane foam, or a bag containing feathers, buckwheat husks, resin pipes and beads, etc. The pillow body 2 of this embodiment is formed of soft polyurethane foam or semi-rigid polyurethane foam including an open cell structure.

[0027] However, the pillow body 2 may be made of materials other than polyurethane foam, which is generally used for pillows, such as feathers, cotton, and resin. The pillow body 2 may also be made of recycled materials such as polyurethane foam pulverized material compressed with a binder (adhesive). In any case, the pillow body 2 may be made of any material that can be used for a pillow. The hardness and resilience of the material are appropriately selected depending on the relationship with the sheet 4 described later.

[0028] The pillow body 2 has a surface 21 on which the head of the user M is placed. The surface 21 is the surface on which the head of the user M is placed when the sheet-attached pillow 1 is in use. In other words, it goes without saying that the surface 21 can extend over the entire surface of the pillow body 2 extending in the width direction W and the front-rear direction L, not just the area directly contacted by the head of the user M.

[0029] When in use, part of the body of the user M, from the back of the head, neck, and shoulders, is placed on the surface 21 via a part of the sheet 4 and the cover 6. The surface 21 of this embodiment slopes downward from near the center in the front-rear direction L to the front end.

[0030] The sheet 4 is used by being laid on the surface 21 of the pillow body 2. The sheet 4 is generally rectangular extending in the width direction W and the front-rear direction L. However, the sheet 4 is not limited to such a rectangular shape and can be changed into various shapes. For example, the sheet 4 may be elliptical or circular covering a part of the surface 21 of the pillow body 2. Moreover, the thickness of the sheet 4 may change from the front side to the rear side in the front-rear direction L, or it may be flat over the entire surface.

[0031] The sheet 4 is arranged so as to cover a part or the whole of the surface 21 of the pillow body 2. The sheet 4 in this embodiment is arranged so as to cover the vicinity of the center of the pillow body 2 in the front-rear direction L. In addition, the sheet 4 is arranged so as to cover the entire pillow body 2 in the width direction W.

[0032] The size of the sheet 4 in the width direction W is the same as or shorter than the sheet-attached pillow 1 and the pillow body 2. The sheet 4 is formed so that the size in the width direction W is about 500 mm to 1400 mm. The size in the width direction W of the sheet 4 may also be about 200 mm to 1600 mm. Furthermore, the size in the width direction W of the sheet 4 may extend over the entire length of the pillow body 2 in the width direction W.

[0033] The sheet 4 of this embodiment has a size in the width direction W that is approximately the same as that of the sheet-attached pillow 1 and the pillow body 2. As a result, the sheet 4 is stably disposed between the head of the user M and the pillow body 2 in a usage state, regardless of the position of the user M.

[0034] Also, the size of the sheet 4 in the front-rear direction L is smaller than that of the pillow with sheet 1 and the pillow body 2. The sheet 4 is formed so that the size in the front-rear direction L is about 150 mm to 250 mm. Also, the size in the front-rear direction L of the sheet 4 may be about 30 mm to 500 mm. Furthermore, the size in the front-rear direction L of the sheet 4 may extend over the entire length of the pillow body 2 in the front-rear direction L.

[0035] The sheet 4 is formed so as to have a thickness in the height direction H of 25 mm or less. The thickness in the height direction H of the sheet 4 may be approximately 2 mm to 15 mm. The thickness in the height direction H of the sheet 4 may also be approximately 0.1 mm to 25 mm.

[0036] In addition, the thicker the sheet 4, the more the tactile sensation that the sheet-attached pillow 1 gives to the user M in use depends on the material of the sheet 4. Therefore, the user M can greatly adjust the tactile sensation of the pillow body 2 by using a thick sheet 4 or multiple sheets 4. On the other hand, the thicker the sheet 4, the more easily the user M can sense the step caused by the thickness of the sheet 4. For this reason, in this embodiment, the thickness of the sheet 4 in the height direction H is formed to be in the range of about 3 mm to 10 mm.

[0037] The sheet 4 is formed of a resin material such as polyurethane, acrylic, melamine, and an olefin resin such as polyethylene. The sheet 4 of the present embodiment is formed of a foamable resin material, such as a soft polyurethane foam or a semi-rigid polyurethane foam having an open cell structure.

[0038] However, the sheet 4 may be an elastic body such as rubber or elastomer, a gel-like resin material, or a gel-like resin material packed in a bag. The sheet 4 may be a foamed or non-foamed body, but is preferably a foamed body. Furthermore, the sheet 4 may be made of recycled materials such as polyurethane foam pulverizers compressed with a binder (adhesive). The hardness and resilience are appropriately selected depending on the relationship with the pillow body 2 described later.

[0039] The sheet 4 has a front surface 41, a back surface 42, and a plurality of through holes 43. The front surface 41 is the surface against which the head of the user M comes into contact during use. The back surface 42 is the surface opposite to the front surface 41, and is disposed on the front surface 21 side of the pillow body 2.

[0040] Fig. 3(a) is a top view showing the sheet 4 of this embodiment. Fig. 3(b) and Fig. 3(c) are a cross-sectional view and a side view, respectively, showing the sheet 4 of this embodiment. Note that the top view, bottom view, right side view, and left side view of the sheet 4 of this embodiment are each expressed in the same way.

[0041] As shown in Fig. 3(a) to (c), the multiple through holes 43 penetrate from the front surface 41 to the back surface 42. As a result, the through holes 43 allow ventilation between the front surface 41 and the back surface 42. Therefore, the through holes 43 can prevent air from stagnating between the sheet 4 and the pillow body 2, or between the sheet 4 and the head of the user M. As a result, the sheet 4 can prevent the user M from feeling uncomfortable, such as stuffy, between the sheet 4 and the head of the user M when in use.

[0042] The through hole 43 has a linear shape extending along the front-rear direction L. The size of the through hole 43 in the width direction W may be about 5 mm to 20 mm. The size of the through hole 43 in the width direction W may be about 0.5 mm to 50 mm. The size of the through hole 43 in the width direction W of the present embodiment is about 10 mm.

[0043] Furthermore, it is sufficient that the size of the through hole 43 in the front-rear direction L is smaller than that of the sheet 4. The size of the through hole 43 in the front-rear direction L may be approximately 50 mm to 200 mm. The size of the through hole 43 in the front-rear direction L may be approximately 0.5 mm to 450 mm. In this embodiment, the size of the through hole 43 in the front-rear direction L is approximately 130 mm.

[0044] The multiple through holes 43 are evenly arranged on the left and right sides, sandwiching the center in the width direction W. In this embodiment, a total of eight through holes 43 are provided, four on each side of the right and left sides when facing the sheet 4. The distance between the two through holes 43 arranged on either side of the center is larger than the distance between the other adjacent through holes 43. The distance, number and arrangement of the through holes 43 can be changed to various values ​​and arrangements according to the dimensions of the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4.

[0045] The cover 6 is a knitted bag that covers the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4. The cover 6 has a main body cover 61 and a sheet storage section 62. The main body cover 61 stores the pillow body 2. The sheet storage section 62 is sewn integrally to the main body cover 61 and stores the sheet 4. This allows the cover 6 to prevent the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 from shifting positions when the sheet-attached pillow 1 is in use. The cover 6 in this embodiment is made of knitted material, but is not limited to this, and the cover 6 can be made of cotton, rayon, and other fiber materials.

[0046] Next, the materials of the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 will be described.

[0047] The pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 are formed so that the difference in 40% compression hardness, which is the stress when compressed at a constant rate of 40% in JIS K 6400-2;2012, is 5N or more, preferably 15N or more, more preferably 30N or more, even more preferably 60N or more, and particularly preferably 90N or more. In addition, the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 are formed so that the difference in resilience in JIS K 6400-3;2012 is 5% or more, preferably 10% or more, more preferably 20% or more, even more preferably 30% or more, and particularly preferably 40% or more. The breathability of the pillow body 2 may be any value as long as it is a value that can be generally adopted.

[0048] Hereafter, the compression hardness and resilience values ​​are based on JIS K 6400-2; 2012 and JIS K 6400-3; 2012. These values ​​will be converted appropriately when applying the international standard ISO8307 or other standards.

[0049] First, a case will be described where the compression hardness of the sheet 4 is harder than that of the pillow body 2. In such a case, the pillow body 2 is formed so that the 40% compression hardness is 10N to 75N. However, the 40% compression hardness of the pillow body 2 is not limited to this range, and may be within the range of 7N to 110N, or even within the range of 5N to 140N.

[0050] Furthermore, the sheet 4 is formed so that the 40% compression hardness is 100N to 200N. The 40% compression hardness of the sheet 4 may be within a range of 75N to 300N, or even within a range of 30N to 500N. In any case, the compression hardness of the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 may be a selectable value within a range that satisfies the difference in compression hardness between the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 described above.

[0051] In addition, the resilience of the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 may be the same value or different values. In other words, the resilience of the pillow body 2 may be higher than that of the sheet 4, or the resilience of the sheet 4 may be higher than that of the pillow body 2. If there is a difference in the resilience of the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4, it is preferable to select within a range that satisfies the difference in resilience of the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 described above.

[0052] In this way, when creating a difference between the resilience of the pillow body 2 and the resilience of the sheet 4, the resilience of the pillow body 2 may be set to 1% to 15%, more preferably 4 to 15%, and even more preferably 8 to 15%. In this case, the resilience of the sheet 4 may be set to 16% to 96%, more preferably 20% to 70%, and even more preferably 30% to 65%, and a value that satisfies the difference in resilience between the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 may be selected within this range.

[0053] With such a pillow body 2 and sheet 4, the user M can use a combination of a soft pillow body 2 and a hard sheet 4. This allows the user M to have his / her body pressure dispersed by the pillow body 2, and at the same time, the user M can feel that the head is supported by the sheet 4 in the vicinity of the head that is in contact with the pillow body 2. As a result, the feel of the pillow with sheet 1 can be adjusted without compromising the manipulative effect of the pillow body 2.

[0054] Next, a case will be described where the compression hardness of the pillow body 2 is harder than that of the sheet 4. In such a case, the pillow body 2 may be formed of polyurethane foam formed so that the 40% compression hardness is 90N to 200N. In addition, the 40% compression hardness of the pillow body 2 may be within the range of 50N to 300N, or even within the range of 30N to 500N.

[0055] Furthermore, the sheet 4 may be formed of polyurethane foam so that the 40% compression hardness is 10 N to 75 N. The 40% compression hardness of the sheet 4 may be within the range of 7 N to 110 N, or even within the range of 5 N to 140 N.

[0056] The compression hardness of the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 may be a selectable value within a range that satisfies the difference in compression hardness between the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4, even if the compression hardness of the pillow body 2 is harder than that of the sheet 4, just as in the case where the compression hardness of the sheet 4 is harder than that of the pillow body 2. The resilience of the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 may be the same value or different values. That is, the resilience of the pillow body 2 may be higher than that of the sheet 4, or the resilience of the sheet 4 may be higher than that of the pillow body 2.

[0057] This allows the user M to use the hard pillow body 2 in combination with the soft sheet 4. This allows the user M to feel that the head is firmly supported by the pillow body 2, while the sheet 4 softens the sensation on the head in the area where the head is in contact with the pillow body 2. As a result, the sensation of the sheet-attached pillow 1 can be adjusted without compromising the manipulative effect of the pillow body 2.

[0058] Furthermore, the combination of the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4 may be such that a difference is provided in the resilience between the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4, regardless of the compression hardness of the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4. In other words, the resilience of the sheet 4 may be higher than that of the pillow body 2 by the difference in the resilience between the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4. Conversely, the resilience of the pillow body 2 may be higher than that of the sheet 4 by the difference in the resilience between the pillow body 2 and the sheet 4.

[0059] As described above, according to the present disclosure, a pillow with a sheet and a sheet whose feel can be adjusted can be provided without compromising the manipulative effect of the pillow body.

[0060] <Other embodiments> Although the embodiment of the present disclosure has been described above, the present disclosure is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications are possible without departing from the gist of the invention. In particular, the multiple modifications described in this specification can be arbitrarily combined as necessary.

[0061] Further, in the above embodiment, an example has been described in which a plurality of linear through-holes 43 are provided in the sheet 4, but the present disclosure is not limited to this.

[0062] That is, as shown in FIG. 4, the sheet 40 of the sheet-attached pillow in another embodiment may be formed without having a through hole.

[0063] 5, the through-hole 431 of the sheet 401 of the sheet-attached pillow in another embodiment may be a rod shape extending in the width direction W. The multiple through-holes 431 may be evenly arranged in the sheet 401 at predetermined intervals.

[0064] Furthermore, the through-holes (not shown) may have an arc shape that bulges outward in the width direction W. For example, a through-hole arranged on the right side as one faces the sheet 4 may be formed in an arc shape that bulges to the right. Conversely, a through-hole arranged on the left side as one faces the sheet 4 may have an arc shape that bulges to the left. Note that the shape of the through-hole may be a variety of shapes, such as a circle, an ellipse, a polygon, a star, or the like, in addition to an arc shape.

[0065] Furthermore, in the above embodiment, an example has been described in which one sheet 4 is layered on one pillow body 2, but the present disclosure is not limited to this. That is, the number of sheets 4 can be appropriately selected according to the preference of the user M, and for example, the pillow with sheet 1 may be used by layering two or more sheets 4 on the pillow body 2.
