Solution Overview

Problem

Current cervical traction pillows are difficult to clean, breed bacteria, and fail to effectively accelerate blood circulation during use, leading to poor traction effects and cervical fatigue.

Innovation Solution

A cervical traction pillow design incorporating a flexible main body with a massage device, heating element, and protective case, featuring a polarization motor for vibration, adjustable angle, and a graphene or carbon fiber heating sheet to promote blood circulation and prevent bacterial growth.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If a cervical traction pillow is used for multiple times, then the cervical traction function is maintained, but the pillow gets dirty and breeds bacteria

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecervical traction functionVSAvoidbacterial growth
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The pillow is divided into a removable pillowcase and a pillow core. The pillowcase can be detached and washed separately, allowing the user to clean the surface that contacts the skin while maintaining the traction function of the core structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The heating element is extracted as a separate component that can be removed and cleaned independently. This allows the heating function to be maintained while enabling thorough cleaning of all components to prevent bacterial growth.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Device complexity

If a simple cervical traction pillow is used, then the structure is simple, but it cannot accelerate blood circulation of the cervical vertebra

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepillow structureVSAvoidcervical traction effect
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The pillow combines cervical traction function with massage and heating functions into a single device. The massage device with vibration motor and the heating element are integrated with the pillow structure, allowing multiple therapeutic effects to work together for improved cervical health.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The pillow serves multiple functions: cervical traction through its structural design, massage through the vibration motor that drives rollers to rotate and massage, and heat therapy through the heating element. This multi-functionality enhances the overall therapeutic effect without requiring separate devices.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Device complexity

If a cervical traction pillow without massage function is used, then the structure is simple, but the cervical traction effect is poor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepillow structureVSAvoidcervical traction effect
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The pillow combines cervical traction function with massage and heating functions into a single device. The massage device with vibration motor and the heating element are integrated with the pillow structure, allowing multiple therapeutic effects to work together for improved cervical health.

Inventive Principle:

Solution Approach 2:

The pillow serves multiple functions: cervical traction through its structural design, massage through the vibration motor that drives rollers to rotate and massage, and heat therapy through the heating element. This multi-functionality enhances the overall therapeutic effect without requiring separate devices.

Applied Scientific Principles

This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.

Function Achieved in This Case

The design effectively relieves neck tension, reduces cervical pressure, maintains natural cervical curvature, and improves traction efficacy while preventing bacterial growth, providing a safer and more comfortable user experience.

Implementation Method 1

the polarization motor rotates the rotating shaft to drive the eccentric block to ceaselessly strike an inner wall of the motor accommodating slot, so that the polarization motor drives the cervical traction pillow main body to vibrate to achieve the massage function

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectVibration: Vibration

Implementation Method 2

the heating device covers the cervical traction pillow main body

Methodology Applied
Scientific EffectHeating: Heating

AI summary

The present disclosure provides a cervical traction pillow includes a cervical traction pillow main body and a massage device. The cervical traction pillow main body is a flexible cervical traction pillow main body with a narrow upper part and a wide lower part, so as to form a neck brace traction portion at an upper end and a base at a lower end, a first back portion connected between the neck brace traction portion and the base, and two first side portions opposite and connected to the neck brace traction portion, the base, and the back portion. The neck brace traction portion and a bottom surface of the base are connected in an acute angle. The massage device is arranged on the cervical traction pillow main body.
