Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a pillow cover in which a pillow body is housed. [Background technology]

[0002] Utility Model Registration No. 3052169 describes a pillowcase. The pillowcase is rectangular and covers the upper surface of the pillow. The area of ​​the pillowcase is approximately the same as the area of ​​the upper surface of the pillow. The pillowcase has a rectangular cloth and decorative frills attached to the outer periphery of the cloth. A non-slip member having a large friction coefficient, such as soft rubber or foam rubber, is fixed to the back surface of the pillowcase.

[0003] The anti-slip members are disk-shaped, and multiple anti-slip members are fixed to the back surface of the pillow cover. The diameter of the anti-slip members is about several centimeters, and the thickness of the anti-slip members is about several mm. The anti-slip members are arranged in a lattice pattern on the back surface of the pillow cover's fabric. In addition, rectangular anti-slip members are arranged on the pillow cover. The rectangular anti-slip members extend along the width direction of the pillow, and multiple rectangular anti-slip members are lined up along the length direction of the pillow. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3052169 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The above-mentioned pillow cover has a non-slip member on the underside of the fabric, which is in contact with the upper surface of the pillow body. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the pillow cover from slipping off the upper surface of the pillow body. However, this pillow cover cannot prevent the underside of the pillow from slipping off the bedding on which the pillow is placed, so that the user's neck may slip toward the user's legs and the pillow may slip toward the top of the user's head during use.

[0006] On the other hand, a pillow cover with a non-slip member on the underside of the pillow is conceivable. In this case, it is possible to prevent the underside of the pillow from slipping off the bedding. However, in the case of this pillow cover, it is not possible to prevent the pillow cover from slipping off the top surface of the pillow body, so the same problem as above may occur, in that the user's neck may slip off toward the user's legs and the pillow may slip off toward the top of the user's head during use. In this way, with a pillow cover, the problem of the pillow slipping off relative to the user's body during use may occur.

[0007] An object of the present disclosure is to provide a pillow cover that can prevent the pillow from shifting out of position relative to the user's body. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The pillow cover according to the present disclosure is a pillow cover comprising a first fabric part oriented vertically upward and a second fabric part oriented vertically downward, with an internal space formed between the first fabric part and the second fabric part in which a pillow body is housed, and comprising a first anti-slip part provided on the outer surface of the second fabric part, and a second anti-slip part provided on the inner surface of the first fabric part at a position facing the pillow body. Each of the first and second fabric parts has a rectangular shape in a plan view, and a seam is formed between the first and second fabric parts, and the seam extends along the short side of the first fabric part, the short side of the second fabric part, the long side of the first fabric part, and the long side of the second fabric part, the first fabric part includes an outer cloth that forms the surface of the first fabric part, and an inner cloth that faces the pillow body on the inside of the outer cloth, and a space in which contents are stored is formed between the outer cloth and the inner cloth, and the second anti-slip portion is provided on the inner cloth. .

[0009] In this pillow cover, the first fabric part is oriented vertically upward and the second fabric part is oriented vertically downward when used. An internal space is formed between the first fabric part and the second fabric part in which the pillow body is accommodated, and the pillow is used by accommodating the pillow body in this internal space. A first anti-slip part is provided on the outer surface of the second fabric part oriented vertically downward. Therefore, since the first anti-slip part is interposed between the bedding and the second fabric part, it is possible to suppress the pillow cover from slipping relative to the bedding. A second anti-slip part is provided on the inner surface of the first fabric part oriented vertically upward at a position facing the pillow body. Therefore, even if the user's head is placed on the first fabric part, it is possible to suppress the slippage of the first fabric part relative to the pillow body. In this pillow cover, by providing the first anti-slip part and the second anti-slip part, it is possible to suppress the slippage of the second fabric part relative to the bedding and the slippage of the first fabric part relative to the pillow body, and therefore it is possible to suppress the slippage of the pillow relative to the user's body. As a result, a pillow equipped with this pillow cover and pillow body can improve the sleeping comfort of the user by preventing the pillow from shifting out of position.

[0010] The first fabric portion may have a neck rest portion on which the neck of the user of the pillow cover rests. The second anti-slip portion may be provided at least on the inside of the neck rest portion of the first fabric portion. In this case, since the second anti-slip portion is provided at least on the inside of the neck rest portion, even if the neck of the user placed on the first fabric portion tends to slip toward the legs, the second anti-slip portion on the inside of the neck rest portion can suppress the first fabric portion from slipping relative to the pillow body.

[0011] No. The first fabric part has a double structure with an outer fabric and an inner fabric, and contents can be stored in the space formed between the outer fabric and the inner fabric. Therefore, by storing contents in the first fabric part, it is possible to further improve the sleeping comfort of a user who rests his / her body by placing his / her head on the first fabric part. Effect of the Invention

[0012] According to the present disclosure, it is possible to prevent the pillow from shifting from its original position relative to the user's body. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0014] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the pillow cover according to the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. In the description of the drawings, the same or corresponding elements are given the same reference numerals, and duplicated descriptions are omitted as appropriate. In addition, the drawings may be partially simplified or exaggerated for ease of understanding, and the dimensional ratios and the like are not limited to those shown in the drawings.

[0015] The pillow cover according to this embodiment comprises a first fabric part oriented vertically upward and a second fabric part oriented vertically downward. The "fabric part" refers to a part at least partially including fabric. The pillow body is housed between the first fabric part and the second fabric part. The "pillow body" refers to a part or component of the pillow other than the pillow cover, for example the core material of the pillow. The "pillow cover" refers to a cover that covers the pillow body. The pillow cover may be a cover that covers the entire pillow body, or may be a cover that covers only a part of the pillow body.

[0016] A first anti-slip portion is provided on the outer surface of the second fabric portion that faces vertically downward of the pillow cover. The "anti-slip portion" refers to a portion or component that functions as an anti-slip portion. The anti-slip portion is made of a material that has a higher coefficient of friction than cloth, for example. The first fabric portion that faces vertically upward of the pillow cover has a neck rest portion on which the neck of the user of the pillow cover rests.

[0017] "User" refers to a person who uses a pillowcase. A "user" is, for example, a person who places their head on the pillowcase that contains the pillow body. "Neck rest" refers to the part of the pillowcase on which the neck is rested. For example, if the pillowcase is rectangular, the "neck rest" refers to the part that extends along the long side of the pillowcase on one side of the short side of the pillowcase.

[0018] The first fabric portion may include an outer fabric that constitutes the front surface of the first fabric portion and an inner fabric that constitutes the back surface of the first fabric portion. The "outer fabric" refers to the fabric located on the outside of the pillowcase, e.g., exposed to the outside. The "inner fabric" refers to the fabric located on the inside of the pillowcase, e.g., not exposed to the outside.

[0019] A space may be formed between the outer fabric and the inner fabric, and contents may be contained in the space. The "contents" refers to the items contained inside the pillowcase, and may be, for example, a flexible material such as cotton, a hollow content such as a pipe material, or a solid content such as buckwheat husks, adzuki beans, or cypress.

[0020] Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing a pillow 30 equipped with a pillow cover 1 according to an embodiment. The pillow 30 comprises a pillow cover 1 and a pillow body 10 (see Fig. 3) housed in the pillow cover 1. As shown in Fig. 1, the pillow cover 1 comprises a first fabric part 2 oriented vertically upward and a second fabric part 3 oriented vertically downward.

[0021] The first fabric portion 2 has a neck resting portion 2A on which the head M1 and neck M2 (see FIG. 8) of the user M are placed. The neck resting portion 2A is provided on one side of the first fabric portion 2 in the first direction D1 (the front side (lower side) in FIG. 1). The neck resting portion 2A extends along the second direction D2 on one side of the first fabric portion 2 in the first direction D1. The neck resting portion 2A extends along the second direction D2 in a region including the center of the first fabric portion 2 in the second direction D2. The neck resting portion 2A may be a portion that protrudes further than portions of the first fabric portion 2 other than the neck resting portion 2A.

[0022] Fig. 2(a) is a plan view that typically shows the first fabric portion 2. Fig. 2(b) is a bottom view that typically shows the second fabric portion 3. As shown in Figs. 1, 2(a) and 2(b), the first fabric portion 2 has a short side 2b that extends in a first direction D1 and a long side 2c that extends in a second direction D2 that intersects (as an example, perpendicular to) the first direction D1. Like the first fabric portion 2, the second fabric portion 3 also has a short side 3b that extends in the first direction D1 and a long side 3c that extends in the second direction D2.

[0023] Each of the first fabric portion 2 and the second fabric portion 3 has, for example, a rectangular shape in a plan view. The first fabric portion 2 has a pair of short sides 2b aligned along the second direction D2 and a pair of long sides 2c aligned along the first direction D1. Like the first fabric portion 2, the second fabric portion 3 also has a pair of short sides 3b aligned along the second direction D2 and a pair of long sides 3c aligned along the first direction D1.

[0024] The pillowcase 1 is formed by sewing the short side 2b of the first fabric portion 2 to the short side 3b of the second fabric portion 3, and sewing the long side 2c of the first fabric portion 2 to the long side 3c of the second fabric portion 3. A seam 4 is formed between the first fabric portion 2 and the second fabric portion 3. The seam 4 extends, for example, along the short sides 2b, 3b and the long sides 2c, 3c.

[0025] For example, the material of the first fabric portion 2 and the material of the second fabric portion 3 are different from each other. As an example, the first fabric portion 2 is quilted. The second fabric portion 3 is made of a fabric that is not quilted. In this case, the first fabric portion 2 has a plurality of quilting seams 2d.

[0026] For example, the multiple seams 2d include a first seam portion 2f that is inclined with respect to both the first direction D1 and the second direction D2, and a second seam portion 2g that intersects with the first seam portion 2f. When the first fabric portion 2 is made of a quilted material in this manner, the texture of the first fabric portion 2 is improved, making it possible to further improve the sleeping comfort of the user M.

[0027] The second fabric portion 3 has a fabric 3d that constitutes the outer shape of the second fabric portion 3, and a first anti-slip portion 5 provided on the outer surface (surface facing vertically downward) of the fabric 3d. The first anti-slip portion 5 functions to prevent the pillow 30 from slipping against bedding that is positioned vertically below the pillow 30. The fabric 3d is made of, for example, chemical fibers (synthetic fibers as an example). However, the fabric 3d may be made of natural fibers.

[0028] However, when the cloth 3d is made of chemical fiber, it is easier to form the first anti-slip portion 5. The material of the cloth 3d includes, for example, polyester. However, the material of the cloth 3d may also include cotton, rayon, or cupra. However, when the cloth 3d is made of polyester, it is possible to make the cloth 3d a stronger material that is less prone to wrinkles.

[0029] As an example, the first anti-slip portion 5 is composed of a plurality of dots 5b fixed to the cloth 3d, and for example, the dots 5b are arranged in a substantially uniform distribution on the cloth 3d. As an example, the first anti-slip portion 5 is provided on the entire surface of the second cloth portion 3. As an example, the dots 5b are composed of silicon resin. For example, silicon resin that has been heated to a liquid state is dripped onto the cloth 3d in the form of dots, and the dripped silicon resin is fixed to the cloth 3d by being hardened by heat treatment.

[0030] As an example, dot-like portions 5b made of silicone resin are printed in the form of dots on the cloth 3d. For example, silicone resin is dripped onto the cloth 3d while the cloth 3d is being transported by a conveyor or the like. In this case, it is possible to form the dot-like portions 5b on the cloth 3d in a short time. Also, the first anti-slip portions 5 (dot-like portions 5b) may be formed on the cloth 3d by anti-slip embossing.

[0031] Above, an example in which the first anti-slip portion 5 is composed of a plurality of dot-like portions 5b has been described. However, the shape of the first anti-slip portion 5 is not limited to the dot-like shape of the dot-like portions 5b, and can be changed as appropriate. The material of the first anti-slip portion 5 is not limited to the above-mentioned silicone resin, and can be an elastic rubber material and can be changed as appropriate. The first anti-slip portion 5 may be composed of PVC (polyvinyl chloride). However, when the first anti-slip portion 5 is made of silicone, the friction coefficient of the first anti-slip portion 5 can be further increased to provide a higher anti-slip effect compared to when the first anti-slip portion 5 is made of PVC.

[0032] FIG. 3 is a plan view showing a schematic relationship between the pillow cover 1 and the pillow body 10. FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG. 2(a). As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the pillow body 10 is housed between the first fabric part 2 and the second fabric part 3. The pillow body 10 has, for example, a rectangular shape having a short side 10b extending along the first direction D1 and a long side 10c extending along the second direction D2. However, the shape of the pillow body 10 may be a shape other than a rectangle, and is not particularly limited.

[0033] The area of ​​the pillow cover 1 in plan view is larger than the area of ​​the pillow body 10 in plan view. The length W1 of the short side 2b (short side 3b) of the pillow cover 1 is longer than the length W2 of the short side 10b of the pillow body 10. The difference between the length W1 and the length W2 is, for example, 1 cm or more and 5 cm or less (2 cm as an example).

[0034] The length L1 of the long side 2c (long side 3c) of the pillow cover 1 is longer than the length L2 of the long side 10c of the pillow body 10. The difference between the length L1 and the length L2 is, for example, 1 cm or more and 5 cm or less (2 cm as an example). In this way, by making the difference between the length W1 and the length W2 and the difference between the length L1 and the length L2 1 cm or more, it is possible for the pillow cover 1 to accommodate the pillow body 10 with a comfortable margin.

[0035] For example, the length W1 is 30 cm or more and 55 cm or less, and one example is 45 cm. For example, the length L1 is 40 cm or more and 75 cm or less, and one example is 65 cm. However, the values ​​of the lengths W1, L1, W2, and L2 are not limited to the above examples and can be changed as appropriate.

[0036] 4, the first fabric portion 2 includes an outer cloth 2h that is oriented vertically upward, and an inner cloth 2j that faces the internal space S of the pillow cover 1 in which the pillow body 10 is housed. In this manner, the first fabric portion 2 has a double structure including the outer cloth 2h and the inner cloth 2j. The outer cloth 2h constitutes the front surface (upper surface) of the first fabric portion 2, and the inner cloth 2j constitutes the inner surface 2p (rear surface, lower surface) of the first fabric portion 2.

[0037] For example, the material of the outer cloth 2h and the material of the inner cloth 2j may be different from each other. As an example, the outer cloth 2h is quilted as described above. The inner cloth 2j is made of a fabric that is not quilted. The outer cloth 2h may be made of a woven fabric or a knitted fabric.

[0038] The inner cloth 2j is made of, for example, chemical fibers (synthetic fibers as an example). The material of the inner cloth 2j may be, for example, the same as the material of the fabric 3d of the second fabric portion 3. In this case, the material of the inner cloth 2j includes, for example, at least one of polyester, cotton, rayon, and cupra.

[0039] The first fabric portion 2 has a space 2k between the outer fabric 2h and the inner fabric 2j in which the contents 6 are accommodated. The contents 6 accommodated in the space 2k are made of, for example, a flexible material. The "flexible material" refers to a cushioning material that deforms when the body is placed on it and receives a load. One example of the contents 6 is cotton. In this case, the first fabric portion 2 and the contents 6 can gently support the head M1 of the user M, making the sleeping comfort of the user M even better.

[0040] However, the contents 6 may be other than cotton, for example, a hollow content such as a pipe material, or a solid content such as buckwheat husks. The contents 6 may also be made of a sheet-like flexible material such as a urethane sheet. In this way, the type of the contents 6 is not particularly limited.

[0041] The pillow cover 1 is provided with a second anti-slip portion 7 at a position facing the pillow body 10 on the inner surface 2p of the first fabric portion 2. The second anti-slip portion 7 is provided on the inner cloth 2j of the first fabric portion 2. The second anti-slip portion 7 is interposed between the first fabric portion 2 and the pillow body 10 and functions as an anti-slip portion for the first fabric portion 2 relative to the pillow body 10.

[0042] The second anti-slip portion 7 is composed of, for example, a plurality of dots 7b fixed to the inner cloth 2j. As an example, the dots 7b are arranged in a substantially uniform distribution on the inner cloth 2j. The dots 7b of the second anti-slip portion 7 are composed of, for example, silicone resin. The method of forming the dots 7b on the inner cloth 2j may be the same as the method of forming the dots 5b on the cloth 3d described above. For example, the second anti-slip portion 7 (dots 7b) may be formed on the inner cloth 2j by anti-slip embossing.

[0043] In the above, an example in which the second anti-slip portion 7 is composed of a plurality of dot-shaped portions 7b has been described. However, the shape of the second anti-slip portion 7 is not limited to a dot shape and can be changed as appropriate. For example, the material of the second anti-slip portion 7 may be the same as the material of the first anti-slip portion 5. In this case, the material of the second anti-slip portion 7 contains at least one of silicone resin and PVC. However, when the second anti-slip portion 7 is made of silicone, the friction coefficient of the second anti-slip portion 7 can be further increased to provide a higher anti-slip effect compared to when the second anti-slip portion 7 is made of PVC.

[0044] Figures 5(a) and 5(b) are diagrams showing examples of arrangement of the second anti-slip portion 7 in the inner cloth 2j of the first fabric portion 2. As shown in Figures 5(a) and 5(b), the second anti-slip portion 7 may be provided on the entire surface of the first fabric portion 2 (inner cloth 2j), or may be provided on only a part of the first fabric portion 2.

[0045] When the second anti-slip portion 7 is provided on the entire surface of the first fabric portion 2, the second anti-slip portion 7 can be formed uniformly on the first fabric portion 2, making it easy to form the second anti-slip portion 7 on the first fabric portion 2. When the second anti-slip portion 7 is provided on a portion of the first fabric portion 2, the second anti-slip portion 7 can be provided partially, making it possible to further improve the sleeping comfort of the user M with his / her head M1 placed on the first fabric portion 2.

[0046] In the example of Fig. 5(b), the second anti-slip portion 7 has a rectangular shape having a short side 7c extending in the first direction D1 and a long side 7d extending in the second direction D2. The width X of the second anti-slip portion 7 in the first direction D1 (the length of the short side 7c) is, for example, 1 cm or more and 10 cm or less (5 cm as an example). However, the value of the width X is not limited to the above example and can be changed as appropriate.

[0047] The second anti-slip portion 7 is provided on the back side of the neck resting portion 2A in the first fabric portion 2. In a plan view, the position of the second anti-slip portion 7 may coincide with the position of the neck resting portion 2A. In addition, in a plan view, the second anti-slip portion 7 may be included in the area of ​​the neck resting portion 2A, or the neck resting portion 2A may be included in the area of ​​the second anti-slip portion 7. In this case, the first fabric portion 2 can be prevented from shifting relative to the pillow body 10 at the area of ​​the neck M2 of the user M, so that the first fabric portion 2 and the neck M2 can be prevented from shifting relative to the pillow body 10.

[0048] 5(a) and 5(b) show the state of the fastener 8 in the pillowcase 1. The fastener 8 is a fastener for inserting and removing the pillow body 10 from the pillowcase 1. By opening the fastener 8, the pillow body 10 can be inserted and removed from the internal space S of the pillowcase 1. For example, the fastener 8 is arranged to form an L-shape in a plan view. In this case, the fastener 8 includes a first portion 8b extending in the first direction D1 and a second portion 8c extending in the second direction D2 from the end of the first portion 8b in the first direction D1.

[0049] For example, the fastener 8 extends along one short side 2b (short side 3b) and one long side 2c (long side 3c) of the pillow cover 1. In this case, the pillow body 10 can be inserted or removed from the pillow cover 1 by opening the fastener 8 along the one short side 2b and the one long side 2c.

[0050] The fastener 8 may be provided on a side of the pillow cover 1 other than the side 1b of the pillow cover 1 on which the second anti-slip portion 7 is provided. The "side of the pillow cover on which the anti-slip portion is provided" refers to the side of the pillow cover along which the anti-slip portion extends in the vicinity of the anti-slip portion. For example, the side 1b of the pillow cover 1 on which the second anti-slip portion 7 is provided is the long side 2c (long side 3c) on one side in the first direction D1 of the pillow cover 1 on which the neck rest portion 2A is provided.

[0051] As described above, when the zipper 8 is provided on an edge of the pillow cover 1 other than the edge 1b on which the second anti-slip portion 7 is provided, the pillow body 10 does not get caught on the second anti-slip portion 7 when the pillow body 10 is inserted or removed, so that the pillow body 10 can be easily inserted or removed.

[0052] 6(a) and 6(b) show modified examples of the arrangement of the second anti-slip portion 7 and the fastener 8. As shown in FIG. 6(a), the second anti-slip portion 7 may be provided on one side and the other end of the first fabric portion 2 in the first direction D1. The second anti-slip portion 7 includes a first portion 7A located on the back side of the neck rest portion 2A of the first fabric portion 2, and a second portion 7B located on the opposite side of the neck rest portion 2A of the first fabric portion 2. As an example, the first portion 7A and the second portion 7B may be located symmetrically with respect to a reference line Y that passes through the center of the first fabric portion 2 in the first direction D1 and extends in the second direction D2.

[0053] 6(b), the second anti-slip portion 7 may include a first portion 7A located on the back side of the neck rest portion 2A of the first fabric portion 2, and a third portion 7C extending in the first direction D1 from the first portion 7A. The third portion 7C may extend in the first direction D1 from the center of the first portion 7A, for example. In this case, the second anti-slip portion 7 has an inverted T-shape in a plan view.

[0054] In the above, an example in which the fastener 8 is L-shaped has been described. However, the fastener 8 may be U-shaped in plan view. In the example of Fig. 6(b), the fastener 8 is provided on a pair of short sides 2b (short sides 3b) of the pillow cover 1 and one long side 2c (long side 3c) located opposite the second anti-slip portion 7.

[0055] In this case, the fastener 8 is provided on the side of the pillow cover 1 other than the side 1b of the pillow cover 1 on which the second anti-slip portion 7 is provided, so that the pillow body 10 is prevented from getting caught on the second anti-slip portion 7, and the pillow body 10 can be easily put in and taken out. Various examples of the shape and arrangement of the second anti-slip portion 7 and the fastener 8 have been described above. In this way, the shape and arrangement of the second anti-slip portion 7 and the fastener 8 are not particularly limited. Furthermore, the shape and arrangement of the first anti-slip portion 5 can also be changed as appropriate, similar to the second anti-slip portion 7.

[0056] In the above example, a liquid silicone resin is dripped in dots, and the dripped silicone resin is heat-treated to form the first anti-slip portion 5 and the second anti-slip portion 7. However, as shown in Figures 7(a) and 7(b), an anti-slip member 20 on which an anti-slip portion 17 is formed in advance may be prepared, and the anti-slip member 20 may be attached to the first fabric portion 2 to form the second anti-slip portion 7. Similarly, the anti-slip member 20 may be attached to the second fabric portion 3 to form the first anti-slip portion 5.

[0057] The anti-slip members 20 include, for example, a square-shaped anti-slip member 20A and a rectangular-shaped anti-slip member 20B. However, the shape of the anti-slip members 20 is not particularly limited and may be, for example, a circular shape. As an example, the anti-slip members 20A and 20B include a cloth 21 that forms the outer shape of the anti-slip members 20A and 20B, and a plurality of dotted portions 22. The materials of the cloth 21 and the dotted portions 22 may be, for example, the same as the materials of the cloth 3d and the dotted portions 5b described above.

[0058] The anti-slip members 20A, 20B can be sewn, for example, to each of the first fabric portion 2 and the second fabric portion 3. When the anti-slip members 20A, 20B can be sewn to each of the first fabric portion 2 and the second fabric portion 3 in this way, it becomes possible to join the anti-slip members 20A, 20B to any position of the first fabric portion 2 and the second fabric portion 3. Furthermore, the anti-slip members 20A, 20B can be retrofitted to an existing pillowcase.

[0059] Next, the effects obtained from the pillow cover 1 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 8, Fig. 9(a) and Fig. 9(b). First, the pillow cover 100 according to the comparative example will be described. Like the pillow cover 1, the pillow cover 100 houses a pillow body 10. The pillow cover 100 comprises a second fabric portion 3 and a first fabric portion 102 that is different from the first fabric portion 2, and the first fabric portion 102 differs from the first fabric portion 2 in that it does not have the second anti-slip portion 7 described above.

[0060] In the case of the pillow cover 100, since the first fabric part 102 does not have the second anti-slip part 7, it is not possible to prevent the first fabric part 102 from shifting relative to the upper surface of the pillow body 10. Therefore, while the user M is using the pillow, the neck M2 of the user M may shift toward the leg M3 of the user M, and the pillow Z including the pillow cover 100 may shift to the opposite side of the leg M3 (toward the top of the head). In this way, with the pillow cover 100, the position of the pillow Z may shift relative to the body of the user M while using the pillow.

[0061] The pillow cover 1 according to this embodiment is used with the first fabric part 2 facing vertically upward and the second fabric part 3 facing vertically downward. An internal space S for housing the pillow body 10 is formed between the first fabric part 2 and the second fabric part 3, and the pillow 30 is used by housing the pillow body 10 in the internal space S. A first anti-slip part 5 is provided on the outer surface of the second fabric part 3 facing vertically downward. Therefore, since the first anti-slip part 5 is interposed between the mattress F and the second fabric part 3, it is possible to suppress the slippage of the pillow cover 1 relative to the mattress F.

[0062] A second anti-slip portion 7 is provided at a position facing the pillow body 10 on the inner surface 2p of the first fabric portion 2, which faces vertically upward. Therefore, even if the head M1 of the user M is placed on the first fabric portion 2, the first fabric portion 2 can be prevented from slipping relative to the pillow body 10. By providing the first anti-slip portion 5 and the second anti-slip portion 7, the pillow cover 1 can prevent the second fabric portion 3 from slipping relative to the bedding F and the first fabric portion 2 from slipping relative to the pillow body 10, so that the pillow 30 can be prevented from slipping relative to the body of the user M. As a result, the pillow 30 including the pillow cover 1 and the pillow body 10 can improve the sleeping comfort of the user M by preventing the pillow 30 from slipping.

[0063] The first fabric portion 2 may have a neck resting portion 2A on which the neck M2 of the user M of the pillow cover 1 is placed. The second anti-slip portion 7 may be provided at least on the inside of the neck resting portion 2A in the first fabric portion 2. In this case, since the second anti-slip portion 7 is provided at least on the inside of the neck resting portion 2A, even if the neck M2 of the user M placed on the first fabric portion 2 tries to slip toward the legs, the second anti-slip portion 7 on the inside of the neck resting portion 2A can suppress the first fabric portion 2 from slipping relative to the pillow body 10.

[0064] The first fabric portion 2 may include an outer cloth 2h constituting the surface of the first fabric portion 2, and an inner cloth 2j facing the pillow body 10 on the inside of the outer cloth 2h. A space 2k in which the contents 6 are accommodated may be formed between the outer cloth 2h and the inner cloth 2j. The second anti-slip portion 7 may be provided on the inner cloth 2j. In this case, the first fabric portion 2 has a double structure including the outer cloth 2h and the inner cloth 2j, and the contents 6 can be accommodated in the space 2k formed between the outer cloth 2h and the inner cloth 2j. Therefore, by accommodating the contents 6 in the first fabric portion 2, the sleeping comfort of the user M who rests his / her body with his / her head M1 placed on the first fabric portion 2 can be further improved.

[0065] The above describes the embodiment of the pillow cover according to the present disclosure. However, the present disclosure is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment or various examples, and can be appropriately modified within the scope of the gist described in each claim. In other words, the shape, size, number, material and arrangement of each part of the pillow cover are not limited to the above-mentioned examples and can be appropriately modified.

[0066] For example, in the above embodiment, the fastener 8 having an L-shape or a U-shape has been described. However, the shape of the fastener that allows the pillow body 10 to be inserted and removed from the pillow cover 1 may be, for example, linear, or may be a shape other than the L-shape or the U-shape. Also, in the above embodiment, the first cloth part 2 having a double structure including the outer cloth 2h and the inner cloth 2j has been described. However, the pillow cover may also include a first cloth part that is not double-structured, and the configuration of the first cloth part can be changed as appropriate. The configuration of the second cloth part is also not limited to the configuration of the second cloth part 3 described above, and can be changed as appropriate. [Explanation of symbols]
