Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a baby pillow. [Background technology]

[0002] Immediately after breastfeeding, infants are prone to "regurgitation," in which breast milk or infant formula that has been swallowed flows back into the mouth through the esophagus. Infants whose respiratory organs and esophagus are underdeveloped may choke if they are unable to expel the breast milk or infant formula that has refluxed into the mouth or nasal cavity. Therefore, infant pillows that prevent infants from vomiting are known.

[0003] Patent Document 1 discloses an infant pillow that is triangular when viewed from the side. The upper surface of the infant pillow, on which the infant is placed, is inclined at an angle ranging from 5° to 20° relative to the sleeping surface. Therefore, the infant pillow holds the infant's upper body in a state inclined at an angle ranging from 5° to 20° relative to the sleeping surface. By inclining the infant in this way, the occurrence of regurgitation can be reduced. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3104422 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The infant pillow described in Patent Document 1 is made of a cushion made of soft polyurethane to support the infant at an inclined position. The inclination of the upper surface of the infant pillow allows the infant to be held in an upright position at an angle of 5 to 20 degrees relative to the bed surface. At this time, the infant's head is supported by the cushion.

[0006] The polyurethane that constitutes the infant pillow described in Patent Document 1 is highly flexible and has excellent shock absorption properties, and is therefore often used as a component material for cushions, etc. However, polyurethane has lower thermal conductivity and breathability than other resin materials, making it difficult for heat, moisture, etc. to escape to the outside. Therefore, the pillow described in claim 1, which uses polyurethane as a component material, has the problem that heat, moisture, etc. are trapped around the infant's head, back, etc., and comfort decreases as the time of use increases.

[0007] An object of the present invention is to provide an infant pillow that can suppress regurgitation by an infant while maintaining the infant's comfort. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The present inventors have studied an infant pillow that can prevent an infant from vomiting up while maintaining the infant's comfort. As a result of intensive research, the present inventors have come up with the following configuration.

[0009] An infant pillow according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a head rest portion for supporting the head of an infant, a shoulder rest portion connected to the head rest portion and supporting at least the shoulders of the infant, and a support portion for supporting at least one of the head rest portion or the shoulder rest portion against a sleeping surface on which the infant pillow is placed. The head rest portion and the shoulder rest portion are made of metal or resin plate-like members having a plurality of through holes, and are supported by the support portion so as to have an inclination such that the height from the sleeping surface increases from the shoulder rest portion toward the head rest portion.

[0010] In the above-described configuration, the head rest and shoulder rest of the infant pillow are formed from metal or resin plate-like members having multiple through-holes. The head rest and shoulder rest are elevated from the sleeping surface by support members so that the head rest is higher than the shoulder rest. Therefore, the head rest and shoulder rest dissipate heat, moisture, sweat, and the like emitted from the infant's body from the sleeping surface via the mesh's physical properties and multiple through-holes. Therefore, the infant pillow has higher thermal conductivity and breathability than pillows made of soft materials such as polyurethane and placed in close contact with the sleeping surface. The infant pillow also holds the infant's head higher than the infant's shoulders and abdomen. This prevents the infant from vomiting while maintaining comfort.

[0011] From another viewpoint, the infant pillow of the present invention preferably includes the following configuration: The head rest portion and the shoulder rest portion are formed of a net member.

[0012] In the above-described configuration, the head rest and shoulder rest, which are made of a metal or resin mesh member, have higher thermal conductivity and breathability than materials such as polyurethane. Furthermore, because the mesh member has multiple mesh holes, increasing the open area ratio, which is the ratio of the area of ​​the through holes per unit area, can improve breathability. Furthermore, because the mesh member is made by weaving multiple members, it has elasticity due to the movement and flexion of the multiple members while maintaining its overall shape. This makes it possible to prevent regurgitation while maintaining the infant's comfort.

[0013] From another viewpoint, the infant pillow of the present invention preferably includes the following configuration: The support portion is configured so that the inclination angle of the head rest portion and the shoulder rest portion relative to the sleeping surface can be changed.

[0014] According to the above-mentioned configuration, the angle of the head rest portion and the shoulder rest portion relative to the sleeping surface can be adjusted according to the baby's age, body type, and degree of regurgitation. Therefore, the baby pillow can hold the baby's head at a position higher than the baby's shoulders and abdomen, while maintaining a posture appropriate for the baby's condition. This makes it possible to prevent the baby from vomiting while maintaining the baby's comfort.

[0015] From another viewpoint, the infant pillow of the present invention preferably includes the following configuration: The head rest portion has a concave curved surface that curves toward the sleeping surface and on which the back of the infant's head can be placed.

[0016] In the above-described configuration, the head rest portion supports the back of the infant's head with a concave surface that curves toward the sleeping surface. Therefore, the head rest portion prevents the infant from slipping off or rolling over due to the inclination of the infant pillow. Furthermore, the head rest portion can maintain a natural supine position while holding the infant's head higher than the abdomen. Furthermore, because the head rest portion supports the back of the infant's head with a concave surface, the weight of the infant's head is not concentrated on the part of the back of the infant's head closest to the sleeping surface. Therefore, the head rest portion can prevent deformation of the back of the infant's head with the concave surface. This makes it possible to prevent the infant from vomiting while maintaining comfort.

[0017] From another viewpoint, the infant pillow of the present invention preferably includes the following configuration: When viewed in the width direction, the infant pillow is inclined with respect to the shoulder resting portion so that an imaginary plane including the shoulder resting surface of the shoulder resting portion is located between the portion of the concave curved surface closest to the bed surface and the upper edge of the concave curved surface.

[0018] In the above-described configuration, the head rest portion can be inclined relative to the shoulder rest surface to form a concave curved surface having a diameter and depth that can hold the back of the infant's head in the same positional relationship with the infant's back when the infant is in an upright position. The concave curved surface holds the head of an infant in a supine position at a position and angle that is the same as the head's position relative to the infant's upper body when the infant is in an upright position. This makes it possible to prevent the infant from vomiting while maintaining comfort.

[0019] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of defining particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0020] As used herein, the use of "including," "comprising," or "having" and variations thereof identify the presence of stated features, steps, operations, elements, components, and / or equivalents thereof, but may include one or more of the steps, operations, elements, components, and / or groups thereof.

[0021] As used herein, the terms "attached," "connected," "coupled," and / or their equivalents are used broadly to encompass both "direct and indirect" attachments, connections, and couplings. Furthermore, "connected" and "coupled" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections or couplings, but may include direct or indirect electrical connections or couplings. Additionally, as used herein, "rotate" means to rotate in at least one direction within a predetermined angular range.

[0022] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs. [Effects of the Invention]

[0023] According to one embodiment of the present invention, an infant pillow includes a head rest portion for supporting the head of an infant, a shoulder rest portion connected to the head rest portion and supporting at least the infant's shoulders, and a support portion for supporting at least one of the head rest portion or the shoulder rest portion against a sleeping surface. The head rest portion and the shoulder rest portion are formed of metal or resin plate-like members having a plurality of through holes, and are supported by the support portion so as to have a slope in which the height from the sleeping surface increases from the shoulder rest portion toward the head rest portion. This makes it possible to prevent the infant from vomiting up while maintaining comfort for the infant. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0025] Hereinafter, an infant pillow 1, which is a first embodiment of the infant pillow according to the present invention, will be described with reference to the drawings. In each drawing, the same parts are given the same reference numerals, and the description of the same parts will not be repeated. The dimensions of the components in each drawing do not faithfully represent the actual dimensions of the components and the dimensional ratios of each component.

[0026] <Embodiment 1> An infant pillow 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 4. Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the infant pillow 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a top view of the infant pillow 1. Fig. 3 is a side view of the infant pillow 1. Fig. 4 is a side view showing a state in which infant B is lying on his back on the infant pillow 1. In the following embodiments, the left-right direction of the head of infant B placed on the infant pillow 1 is defined as the horizontal direction of the infant pillow 1, the direction from infant B's head to his shoulders is defined as the vertical direction, and the direction perpendicular to the sleeping surface G on which infant B and the infant pillow 1 are placed in a futon, bed, etc. on which the infant pillow 1 is placed is defined as the height direction.

[0027] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the infant pillow 1 is a pillow intended for an infant B aged 0 to 18 months. The infant pillow 1 has a head rest portion 2, a shoulder rest portion 3, a support portion 6, a cushion 7, and a cover 8.

[0028] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the head resting portion 2 is a portion on which the head of infant B is placed. The head resting portion 2 is a mesh-like member formed by weaving metal wire. The head resting portion 2 has a frame body 4 that is approximately rectangular in plan view, and a mesh 5 made of, for example, iron, stretched over the frame body 4. The head resting portion 2 is made up of a part of the frame body 4 and a part of the mesh 5. The head resting portion 2 is formed in a plate shape. The head resting portion 2 has a plurality of through holes 5a that are the meshes of the mesh 5.

[0029] The shoulder resting portion 3 is a portion on which the shoulders and part of the chest of infant B are placed. The shoulder resting portion 3 is a mesh-like member formed, for example, by weaving iron wire. The shoulder resting portion 3 has a frame body 4 that is approximately rectangular in plan view, and an iron mesh 5 stretched over the frame body 4. The shoulder resting portion 3 is made up of a part of the frame body 4 and a part of the mesh 5. The head resting portion 2 is made up of a plate-like shape. The shoulder resting portion 3 has multiple through holes 5a that are the meshes of the mesh 5. The shoulder resting portions 3 are positioned adjacent to the head resting portion 2 in the vertical direction.

[0030] In this way, the head resting portion 2 and shoulder resting portion 3 are formed by the same frame body 4 and net 5. In other words, the head resting portion 2 is located on one vertical portion of the net 5 stretched over the frame body 4, and the shoulder resting portion 3 is located on the other vertical portion. The head resting portion 2 and shoulder resting portion 3 are formed integrally.

[0031] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the support part 6 lifts the head rest part 2 and shoulder rest part 3 from the bed surface G. The support part 6 is connected to one end of the head rest part 2 on the head side in the vertical direction. The support part 6 has a pipe-shaped contact part 6a that contacts the bed surface G, and connection parts 6b that extend in the height direction from both ends of the contact part 6a. The connection parts 6b are connected to the ends of the head rest part 2.

[0032] As shown in FIG. 3, the cushion 7 is a buffer member that distributes impacts to the infant B and reaction forces from the head rest portion 2 and shoulder rest portion 3. The cushion 7 is configured to cover the head rest surface 2a of the head rest portion 2 and the shoulder rest surface 3a of the shoulder rest portion 3. The cushion 7 is made of, for example, a highly breathable buffer material with a honeycomb structure. The cushion 7 is placed on the head rest surface 2a and the shoulder rest surface 3a. In other words, the cushion 7 is located between the infant B and the head rest portion 2 and shoulder rest portion 3.

[0033] The cover 8 covers the head rest portion 2, the shoulder rest portion 3, and the cushion 7. The cover 8 is bag-shaped. The cover 8 is made of pile fabric. The cover 8 is configured so that the head rest portion 2, the shoulder rest portion 3, and the cushion 7 can be stored inside.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 4, infant B is placed on the head rest portion 2 and shoulder rest portion 3 of infant pillow 1 via cushion 7 and cover 8. The head of infant B is placed on head rest portion 2. The shoulder and chest of infant B are placed on shoulder rest portion 3. Infant pillow 1 holds infant B's head at a position higher than infant B's shoulders and abdomen. In addition, infant pillow 1 holds infant B's head and shoulders at a position separated from the sleeping surface G. Therefore, infant pillow 1 forms a space through which air can flow between the head rest portion 2 and shoulder rest portion 3 and the sleeping surface G.

[0035] Heat, sweat, etc. emitted from the head and back of infant B pass through cushion 7, head rest portion 2, shoulder rest portion 3, and cover 8, and are discharged from the space between head rest portion 2 and shoulder rest portion 3 and sleeping surface G (see arrows). Therefore, infant pillow 1 has higher thermal conductivity and breathability than pillows made of soft material such as polyurethane and placed in close contact with sleeping surface G. This makes it possible to prevent infant B from vomiting up while maintaining comfort.

[0036] <Embodiment 2> An infant pillow 1A according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described using Fig. 5 to Fig. 8. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the infant pillow 1A according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 6 is a top view of the infant pillow. Fig. 7 is a side view of the infant pillow 1A. Fig. 8 is a side view showing infant B lying on his back on the infant pillow 1A. In the following, the same components as those in the previous embodiment will be given the same reference numerals and their description will be omitted, and only components different from the previous embodiment will be described.

[0037] As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, the baby pillow 1A has a head resting portion 9, a shoulder resting portion 3, a support portion 6, a cushion 11, and a cover 8.

[0038] As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the head resting portion 9 is a portion on which the head of infant B is placed. The head resting portion 9 is a mesh member formed, for example, by weaving iron wire. The head resting portion 9 has a frame body 4 that is approximately rectangular in plan view, and an iron mesh 10 stretched over the frame body 4. The head resting portion 9 is made up of a part of the frame body 4 and a part of the mesh 10. The head resting portion 9 is formed in a plate shape. The head resting portion 9 has a plurality of through holes 10a that are the meshes of the mesh 10.

[0039] The head rest portion 9 has a concave surface 9b protruding toward the bed surface G at approximately the center of the net 10 (the net 10 at the concave surface 9b is omitted). The concave surface 9b supports the back of the head of infant B in a supine position, i.e., lying on their back. The concave surface 9b is formed by a portion of a sphere. The concave surface 9b has a circular outer edge when viewed in a direction perpendicular to the head rest surface 9a of the head rest portion 9. In this way, the concave surface 9b is configured in a shape that covers the back of infant B's head.

[0040] 7 and 8, the head resting portion 9 is inclined with respect to the shoulder resting surface 3a so as to form a concave curved surface 9b having a diameter and depth capable of holding the back of the head of infant B in the same positional relationship as the head relative to the back of infant B in an upright position. A portion T of the concave curved surface 9b closest to the bed surface G is located closer to the bed surface G than an imaginary plane P including the shoulder resting surface 3a of the shoulder resting portion 3 (see FIG. 8). The concave curved surface 9b holds the head of infant B in a supine position at a position and angle that is the same as the head relative to the upper body of infant B in an upright position.

[0041] The cushion 11 is a cushioning member for the infant B. The cushion 11 is configured to cover the head resting surface 9a of the head resting portion 9 and the shoulder resting surface 3a of the shoulder resting portion 3. The cushion 11 is made of, for example, a highly breathable cushioning material with a honeycomb structure. The cushion 11 is placed on the head resting surface 9a of the head resting portion 9 and the shoulder resting surface 3a of the shoulder resting portion 3. In the cushion 11, the head cushioning portion 11a that overlaps with the concave curved surface 9b when viewed in a direction perpendicular to the head resting surface 9a is configured to be thinner or softer than other portions so that it can easily deform along the concave curved surface 9b. The head cushioning portion 11a comes into contact with the head of the infant B not only from below but also from the vertical and horizontal directions.

[0042] The infant pillow 1A configured in this manner holds the back of the head of infant B with the concave curved surface 9b. At this time, the head cushioning portion 11a distributes the pressure applied to the head of infant B from the concave curved surface 9b. Therefore, by holding the head of infant B with the concave curved surface 9b, the infant pillow 1A prevents infant B from slipping off or rolling due to the inclination of the infant pillow 1A, and the head cushioning portion 11a distributes the force acting on the head of infant B, easing discomfort.

[0043] Heat, sweat, etc. emitted from the head and back of infant B pass through cushion 11, head rest portion 9, shoulder rest portion 3, and cover 8, and are discharged from the space between head rest portion 9 and shoulder rest portion 3 and sleeping surface G (see arrows). Therefore, the thermal conductivity and breathability of infant pillow 1A are higher than those of pillows made of soft materials such as polyurethane and placed in close contact with sleeping surface G.

[0044] Furthermore, the infant pillow 1A can maintain the supine position in a posture equivalent to an upright position by using the concave curved surface 9b to hold the portion of the head of the infant B closest to the sleeping surface G at a predetermined position closer to the sleeping surface G than the imaginary plane P including the shoulder resting surface 3a. Therefore, the head of the infant B can be held at a position higher than the shoulders and abdomen of the infant B while maintaining the natural supine position of the infant B. This makes it possible to prevent the infant B from vomiting up while maintaining the comfort of the infant B.

[0045] <Modification of the second embodiment> An infant pillow 1B, which is a modified example of the infant pillows 1 and 1A, will be described with reference to Fig. 9. Fig. 9 is a side view of the infant pillow 1B, which is a modified example of the infant pillow 1A in the embodiment of the present invention, with the tilt angle adjusted.

[0046] 9, the infant pillow 1B may be configured so that the connection angle of the support part 6 with respect to the head rest parts 2, 9 (head rest part 9 in this embodiment) is changeable. The infant pillow 1B has the head rest part 9, shoulder rest parts 3, the support part 6, a cushion 11, a cover 8, and a connection part 6c.

[0047] The connecting portion 6c connects the support portion 6 and the head rest portion 9. The connecting portion 6c also changes the angle of the support portion 6 relative to the head rest portion 9. The connecting portion 6c is configured to rotate the support portion 6 around a rotation axis extending in the width direction of the head rest portion 9. The connecting portion 6c can hold the support portion 6 at any angle relative to the head rest portion 2. The support portion 6 changes the height from one end of the head rest portion 9, either the head rest portion 9 or the shoulder rest portion 3, on the head side to the bed surface G by rotating the connecting portion 6c. Therefore, the support portion 6 tilts the shoulder rest portion 3 and the head rest portion 9 so that the height from the bed surface G increases from the shoulder rest portion 3 toward the head rest portion 9. The support portion 6 is also capable of adjusting the tilt angle of the shoulder rest portion 3 and the head rest portion 9 relative to the bed surface G. The support portion is configured to adjust the tilt angle of the shoulder rest portion 3, for example, within a range of 5° to 20°.

[0048] The infant pillow 1B configured in this manner can adjust the angles of the head resting portions 2, 9 and shoulder resting portion 3 relative to the sleeping surface G according to the infant's age, body type, and degree of regurgitation. Therefore, the infant pillow 1B can maintain the head of infant B at a position higher than the shoulders and abdomen of infant B, while maintaining a posture appropriate for the condition of infant B. This makes it possible to prevent infant B from vomiting while maintaining comfort for infant B.

[0049] <Other embodiments> In each of the above-described embodiments, the infant pillow 1, 1A, 1B supports the head and shoulders of the infant B with the head support portions 2, 9 and shoulder support portion 3.

However, the support part of the infant pillow may be connected to the abdomen side end of the shoulder rest part. As shown in FIG. 10, the support part 6 of the infant pillow 1C is connected to the abdomen side of the shoulder rest part 3 by a connection part 6b. Also, the support part 6 of the infant pillow 1C may be configured so that its angle with respect to the shoulder rest part 3 is changeable.

[0052] In each of the above-described embodiments, the infant pillows 1, 1A, and 1B have head resting portions 2 and 9 and shoulder resting portion 3. However, the infant pillows may have a lower body resting portion for resting the abdomen and lower body of infant B on the leg side of the shoulders. As shown in FIG. 11, the infant pillow 1D has a lower body resting portion 12 at the end of the shoulder resting portion 3. The lower body resting portion 12 is connected to the shoulder resting portion 3. The lower body resting portion 12 is made of a cushion member. The infant pillows 1, 1A, 1B, 1C, and 1D may also have a fixing portion 13 for holding the infant B so that it does not slip off the infant pillow 1, 1A, 1B, 1C, and 1D. The fixing portion 13 is located, for example, on the shoulder resting portion 3. The fixing portion 13 is made, for example, of a belt for holding the upper body of infant B.
