[Technical Field]

[0001] To provide a pillow that can be used as a pillow in daily life and as slippers in case of disaster, which can be used as slippers in case of disaster to protect feet from glass fragments and the like and enable safe evacuation. [Background technology]

[0002] It has been pointed out that there is a possibility of a large-scale disaster such as a major Nankai Trough earthquake occurring in the future. If an earthquake were to occur while one is sleeping, it would be effective to keep slippers close by to use as a pillow so that they can protect one's feet from glass shards from broken dishes and other indoor items when evacuating.

[0003] Conventionally, Patent Document 1 (Utility Model Registration No. 3112678) discloses a technology that allows a disaster prevention hood, cold weather gear, and slippers to be stored inside a pillowcase. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3112678 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] With the pillow described in Patent Document 1, if an earthquake or other incident occurs while you are sleeping and you need to quickly prepare your slippers, you may panic and not realize that the slippers are stored in the pillow.

[0006] Even if you are aware of this, it is not easy to remove the slippers from inside the pillow and prepare them, especially when the lights are off.

[0007] Therefore, the problem that the present invention aims to solve is to provide a means that can be used as a pillow in normal circumstances, that ensures that the presence of slippers is noticed even if an earthquake or the like occurs while sleeping, that is easy to prepare as slippers even in poor lighting, and that can protect the feet from glass fragments that fall to the floor when tableware or the like breaks when moving around indoors to evacuate. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The means for solving the problems of the present invention are as follows.

[0009] First, A split structure having an upper cushion and a lower cushion, When integrated, it can be used as a pillow. This pillow can also be used as slippers in emergencies, and is characterized in that when separated, each of the separated parts can become a part of a slipper.

[0010] Second, A split structure having an upper cushion and a lower cushion, When integrated, it can be used as a pillow. In the divided state, each part becomes a part of the slipper, The upper and lower cushions are detachably connected to each other by hook-and-loop fasteners provided on their opposing surfaces, forming a single unit.

[0011] Third, In the disaster slipper pillow described in the first or second item, A plurality of attachment / detachment means are provided on both side surfaces of the upper cushion, A plurality of attachment / detachment means are provided on both sides of the lower cushion, A first elastic belt and a second elastic belt are provided. The first elastic belt has a detachable means at both ends of the back surface thereof, The pillow can also be used as a slipper for emergencies, and is characterized in that attachment and detachment means are provided on both ends of the back surface of the second elastic belt.

[0012] Fourth, In the disaster slipper pillow described in the first or second item, A plurality of attachment / detachment means are provided on both side surfaces of the upper cushion, A plurality of attachment / detachment means are provided on both sides of the lower cushion, A first elastic belt and a second elastic belt are provided. The first elastic belt has a detachable means at both ends of the back surface thereof, The second elastic belt has a detachable means at both ends of the back surface thereof, The attachment / detachment means of the first elastic belt is combined with the attachment / detachment means of the upper cushion, A pillow that can also be used as slippers for emergencies, characterized in that the attachment / detachment means of the second elastic belt is combined with the attachment / detachment means of the lower cushion.

[0013] Fifth, In the disaster slipper pillow described in the fourth item, This pillow can also be used as slippers for emergencies, and is characterized in that a foot insertion section can be formed by attaching the first and second elastic belts between the opposing sides of the upper and lower cushions.

[0014] As a means for attaching and detaching, snap buttons are preferred as they can be operated reliably even when feeling around. Concave snap buttons can be provided on both sides of the upper and lower cushions, and convex snap buttons can be provided on the backs of the first and second elastic belts, but the concave and convex sides can also be reversed.

[0015] A hook-and-loop fastener may also be used as the attachment / detachment means.

[0016] It is preferable to use the first elastic belt as the first belt and the second elastic belt as the second belt because they fit the foot well, but non-elastic belts can also be used if they simply satisfy the foot-entry function. [Effects of the Invention]

[0017] According to the present invention, it can be used as a pillow under normal circumstances, and even in the event of a disaster such as an earthquake, it can function as a simple slipper simply by separating the upper and lower cushions and fastening the elastic belt to the designated button position.

[0018] Here, the upper and lower division structure and the side belts can be seen on a daily basis, so even if you are panicking in an emergency such as an earthquake, you will not forget that they function as slippers.

[0019] Furthermore, even if you are groping around in poor lighting, you can easily separate the pillow and attach the elastic belt to the designated position because you can reliably touch each part with your hands.

[0020] This means that if a disaster such as an earthquake occurs while you are sleeping, even if you use the pillow as slippers, the thickness of the cushioning layer reduces the risk of injuring your feet with small pieces of glass, allowing you to evacuate safely.

[0021] In addition, when integrated, it can be kept on hand like a regular pillow without taking up any installation space, which also reduces the hassle of storing disaster prevention supplies separately. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0023] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the accompanying drawings, the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals, and duplicated explanations are omitted. It should be noted that the description here is one embodiment of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. [Example]

[0024] As shown in FIG. 1, the pillow that doubles as slippers for emergencies of this embodiment has a separate structure consisting of an upper cushion 10 and a lower cushion 20, and when the pillow is in use, the upper cushion 10 and the lower cushion 20 are integrated together.

[0025] The upper layer cushion 10 and the lower layer cushion 20 are integrated by being detachably connected by hook-and-loop fasteners (not shown) provided opposite almost the entire bottom surface of the upper layer cushion 10 and almost the entire top surface of the lower layer cushion 20.

[0026] In the integrated state, as shown in FIG. 4, the head 50 can be brought into contact with the upper cushion 10 to be used as a pillow.

[0027] In Figure 1, symbol 30 denotes a first elastic belt that is removably attached to one side of the upper cushion 10 with snap buttons, and symbol 40 denotes a second elastic belt that is removably attached to one side of the lower cushion 20 with snap buttons.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 2, six recessed snap buttons 11 are attached to the side of the upper cushion 10, and six recessed snap buttons 21 are attached to the side of the lower cushion 20.

[0029] On the side shown in Figure 1, in the area hidden by the first elastic belt 30 and the second elastic belt 40, six concave side snap buttons 11 are attached to the side of the upper cushion 10, and six concave side snap buttons 21 are attached to the side of the lower cushion 20, as in Figure 2.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 3, convex snap buttons 31 and convex snap buttons 41 are provided on both ends of the back surface of the first elastic belt 30 and the second elastic belt 40 shown in FIG.

[0031] Here, the length of the first elastic belt 30 and the attachment positions of the convex snap buttons 31 at both ends are configured so that when in pillow state, they match the button positions at both ends of the six concave snap buttons 11 on one side of the upper cushion 10, and when in slipper state as shown in Figure 5, they match the button positions between the opposing sides, allowing the formation of a foot insertion section 12.

[0032] Similarly, the length of the second elastic belt 40 and the attachment positions of the convex snap buttons 41 at both ends are configured so that when in pillow state, they match the button positions at both ends of the six concave snap buttons 21 on one side of the lower cushion 20, and when in the slipper state after separation as shown in Figure 5, they match the button positions between the opposing sides, allowing the formation of a foot insertion section 22.

[0033] Next, an example of how to use the above-mentioned disaster slipper pillow will be described.

[0034] When used as a pillow, as shown in Figure 1, the upper layer cushion 10 and the lower layer cushion 20 are integrated by combining their hook-and-loop fasteners, and the first elastic belt 30 is attached to one side of the upper layer cushion 10 and the second elastic belt 40 is attached to one side of the lower layer cushion 20.

[0035] As shown in FIG. 4, the head 50 is brought into contact with the upper cushion 10 to be used as a pillow.

[0036] In the event of an earthquake, the first and second elastic belts 30 and 40 are removed (see Figure 3) to use the product as slippers, and the upper and lower cushions 10 and 20 are separated and placed side by side as shown in Figure 5.

[0037] In addition, the first elastic belt 30 is attached to the recessed snap buttons 11 on both sides according to the size of the foot 60, thereby forming the foot receiving section 12.

[0038] In FIG. 5, the first elastic belt 30 is attached to the second recessed snap button 11 when viewed from the toe 61 side.

[0039] Similarly, the second elastic belt 40 is attached to the recessed snap buttons 21 on both sides according to the size of the foot 60, thereby forming the foot receiving section 22.

[0040] In FIG. 5, the second elastic belt 40 is attached to the second recessed snap button 21 when viewed from the toe 61 side.

[0041] By inserting the toes 61 into the foot insertion sections 12 and 22, the shoes can be used as slippers when an earthquake occurs.

[0042] Although not shown in the figures, the upper cushion 10 and the lower cushion 20 may be filled with a sheet material made of a material that cannot be cut by glass shards, or the cushion material may be selected from foam, fiber, air-injected material, etc.

[0043] When using the disaster slipper pillow of this embodiment as a pillow, the upper and lower divided structure of the upper cushion 10 and the lower cushion 20 and the first elastic belt 30 and the second elastic belt 40 on the side can be seen on a daily basis, so even if you are panicking in an emergency such as an earthquake, you will not forget that it functions as a slipper.

[0044] Furthermore, when an earthquake occurs, even if there is poor light and you are groping around, it is easy to separate the pillow and attach the first and second elastic belts 30 and 40 to their designated positions, as each component can be reliably touched with your hands.

[0045] When the disaster slippers / pillow of this embodiment is used as slippers, the upper layer cushion 10 and the lower layer cushion 20 are thick enough to function as a pillow, so even if you step on small pieces of glass or the like, your soles will not be injured, allowing you to evacuate safely.
