Definitions
- the present invention relates to an anatomically shaped pad, which is particularly useful as a whole body pillow, comprising at least one curved portion in plan view and at least one comparatively elongated central portion for the body portion, which merges into the bent portion, wherein at least one leg of the pad for the Head portion is provided and at least one leg of the pad for the body area is provided.
- a cushion having the aforementioned features, which is referred to as a full body pillow, as it has about body length and because, unlike a conventional pillow, the pillow allows a person to lie on the pillow with parts of the whole body.
- the cushion can be changed within certain limits by bending in its outline. It allows for different lying positions in which different parts of the body rest on the cushion, for example head and thighs or upper body and lower legs.
- the elongate central portion can also be used to support the back of a person, the curved portions can also be used on the one hand as a knee pad and on the other hand as an armrest. Since this known pillow end has two bent portions and has a total of about a C-shape, it is indeed suitable as a body pillow when the person occupies a curved reclining position, but is less well suited for a largely extended lying position.
- the known pillow has a shorter head portion leg which merges into the elongated body portion leg in an approximately 90 ° bent portion.
- This Kirkschenkel runs in a straight line in the known pillow.
- another curved portion for the leg rest or lower leg support is provided, in which case an approximately 180 ° bent U-section is present.
- the result is for the cushion about an elongated C-shape.
- the object of the present invention is to provide an anatomically shaped cushion of the type mentioned that a person lying in a largely extended state or with only slightly tightened legs in a natural sleeping position both a support along the Body offers as well as a pad in the head area.
- the head area leg and the body area leg take an acute angle with each other.
- This plan shape of the whole-body cushion is advantageous, for example, if the person occupies a side sleeping position in which he has turned his stomach towards the body region leg, since then the upper body is received in the free space between the body region leg and the head region leg given by the acute angle.
- the comparatively elongated middle section which forms the body region limb runs in a gentle curvature which is curved in the opposite direction of rotation as the bent section.
- the body region leg merges into an end-side rectilinear foot region leg.
- the cushion according to the invention has approximately the plan view of a sieve, wherein the head leg forms the head of the wires, the body leg forms the middle portion of the wires and the leg portion forms the bottom end foot of the wires.
- the special shape of the seven combines the advantages of several cushions.
- the seven is a pleasantly supportive pillow, which relieves the neck and shoulders while providing a perfect leg support. With the help of the sturdy leg rest the spine stays in perfect balance and also the knees are padded. The sum of the positive factors that result from this particular shape of the pillow, a healthy sleep is promoted in a lateral position and the disapproved by many medical practitioners prone position can be easily avoided.
- the head area leg can have a larger cross section in its free end area than in the other areas, and the head area leg can, for example, also have a larger cross section in its free end area than the body area leg.
- the pillow according to the invention may, for example, have a crowned, approximately cylindrical, oval or elliptical cross section. Both the size of the cross-section and the cross-sectional shape can vary over the length of the pad.
- the cushion has a cushion cover which is filled with packing, so that the pad yields to weight pressure.
- the cushion preferably has at least in the body portion leg an outer cushion cover, within which by far an inner cover is arranged, wherein in the space between the outer cushion cover and inner cover at least one fleece is arranged. This results in a soft, but not too flexible leg rest.
- the interior of the inner cover can be filled, for example, with microbeads, which results in supporting and relieving the spine, the hip and the pelvic area in the area of the body limb.
- This section of the pillow also serves as a knee pad, supports the thorax and relieves the respiration.
- the pillow of the invention promotes the lateral position of the person by its planform and thereby helps to reduce snoring and abdominal slump, because in abdominal or reserve the airways are additionally narrowed.
- the shape of the sieves prevents moving out of the orthopedic recommended side position.
- the result is an optimal support effect in the region of the body area leg.
- the filling of the pillow in the head area may differ from that in the body area.
- the cushion in the head region leg may have a filling of preferably rhombic foams made of foam, which are dimensioned larger than the fillers in the body region limb, the latter preferably being microbeads, for example, of EPS (foamed polystyrene).
- EPS fuoamed polystyrene
- FIG. 1 shows a plan view of a pillow according to the invention, which is designated overall by the reference numeral 10.
- This cushion has a head portion leg 11, which merges via a bent portion 14 in the elongated body portion legs 12.
- the body region leg 12 finally merges into the foot region leg 13 at the end.
- the cushion thus has approximately the overall plan view of a seven, wherein the head portion leg 11 forms the head of the sieves, the body portion leg 12 forms the central portion of the wires and the réelle Schemesschenkel 13 forms the lower end foot of the wires.
- the bent portion 14 is the transition between the head of the wires and the middle portion of the wires. Since the head portion leg 11 makes an acute angle with the body portion leg 12, the bent portion 14 describes an arc of more than 90 °.
- the head portion leg 11 has in its free end region 15, that is, at its end remote from the bent portion 14, a slightly larger cross section than in the other areas.
- the head portion leg thus tapers slightly between the end portion 15 and the bent portion 14, where the cross section increases again.
- the head portion leg 11 in its free end portion 14 has a cross section which is larger than the cross section of the body portion leg 12. From the thickened arcuate portion thus the cross section can be approximately constant up to the sans Kirschenkel 13 out.
- the cushion may have a convex approximately oval, elliptical or approximately cylindrical cross-section.
- the cushion deforms under weight pressure, but its filling is designed so that the pad is not too soft and thus does not deform too much, so that in particular in the region of the body portion leg 12 a sufficient support function is maintained.
- the planter shape of the pad which is similar to the number seven, is chosen such that the comparatively elongated middle section, which forms the body region leg of the pad, runs in a gentle curve, which is curved in the opposite direction of rotation as the bent section 14.
- the foot region 13 then runs the pillow in an approximately straight end.
- the elongate central portion of the screens is curved and oriented so that the end of the elongated central portion, that is, the end of the foot portion 13, is oriented approximately perpendicular to the center of the head portion leg 11.
- the body portion leg 12 due to the gentle curvature, gradually advances into a perpendicular orientation to the head portion leg as the distance from the head portion leg 11 increases from an acute angle to the head portion leg 11.
- the gently arcuately oriented body region limb 12 based on the shape of the sieves, extends from the bent section 14 overall approximately diagonally to the alignment of the head region limb 11.
- FIG. 2 shows a lying person 16 in sleeping position in the lateral position, which lies on and on a pillow 10 according to the invention.
- the cushion 10 can be used.
- the head 17 of the person 16 on that part of the head portion leg 11, where it merges into the bent portion 14, more inside.
- the upper body region and the abdominal region 18 abut each other on the inner side of the body region limb 12.
- a thigh 19, the knee 20 and the lower leg 21 rest on the lower portion of the body portion leg 12.
- At least one foot 22 rests on thetician Schemeschenkel 13.
- the person can hang an arm 23 on the elaborate Kunststoffsschenkel 12.
- the illustration shows, on the basis of the cross section through the body region limb 12, that the cushion has, for example, an approximately oval cross section.
- the cushion has an outer cushion cover 24, which is usually made of a textile material.
- an inner shell 26 is at a distance from the outer shell 24 disposed within the latter, wherein the space between the inner shell 26 and outer cushion cover 24 receives a nonwoven layer 25.
