Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Objective] The height of the pillow can be set to the optimum height according to the user's preference, and can be adjusted to an appropriate height even if it is compressed and lowered due to long-term use. To do so. [Structure] A substrate 10, a bearing 11 mounted on the substrate for supporting a screw 20 having a right-hand thread portion 21 and a left-hand thread portion 22, a head support plate 60 on the board, the board 10 and a head support. The support means is provided between the plates 60. The support means includes two runners 30a movably mounted on the right and left screw portions 21 and 22, respectively.
30b and one end of the runners 30a and 30b, and the other end of the arm 40 pivotally supported by a mounting plate 50 attached to the head support plate. The apparatus further has a knob 25 for rotating the screw 20, and by rotating the knob 25, the runners 30a and 30b move toward or away from each other, and the head support plate 60 is lifted or lowered.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a pillow, and more particularly, to a pillow having an adjustable height.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Traditional pillows are not adjustable in height, which has sometimes caused problems for the user, especially for the patient. Pillows are no longer suitable for use when compressed and lowered after long-term use. Therefore, a pillow whose height can be adjusted has been long-awaited.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention has been made in view of these points, and an object thereof is to provide a pillow having a device having a function of adjusting height.

[0004]

[Means for solving the problem]

 A height adjusting device according to the present invention provided in a pillow includes a base plate, mounting means for mounting a screw having a right-hand screw part and a left-hand screw part on a base plate so as to be rotatable. It includes a head supporting plate and a supporting means provided between the substrate and the head supporting plate, and the supporting means is movably attached along the right and left screw portions, respectively.

The support means includes two runners, an attachment plate attached to the head support plate, a first end portion pivotally attached to the runner, and a second end portion pivotally attached to the attachment plate. It includes an arm. The device is further attached to a screw and has a knob for rotating the screw, and the rotating operation of the knob moves the runners toward or away from each other, which lifts the head support plate, or It is designed to be lowered.

[0006]

【Example】

 1 to 3, the height adjusting device according to the present invention provided in the pillow 1 (see FIG. 3) generally has a substrate 10 and a head supporting plate 60. Three bearings 11 mounted on the substrate 10 rotatably support a screw 20, which has a right-hand threaded portion 21 and a left-handed threaded portion 22 between two adjacent bearings.

As shown in FIG. 3, supporting means are provided between the base plate 10 and the head support plate 60 for the right-hand screw portion 21 and the left-hand screw portion 22, respectively. The support means has two runners 30a and 30b, and each runner is attached movably along a right-hand threaded portion 21 and a left-handed threaded portion 22 by passing a screw 20 through an axial hole 31.

Each of the runners 30a and 30b also has a hole 32 for rotatably mounting the lower end of the arm 40 (see FIG. 2). The upper end of each arm 40 is rotatably attached to the lower side of the plate 50 by a pin hole 51 of the plate 50 and a pin 52 passing through a pin hole 44 of the arm 40. When the device shown by the solid line in FIG. 3 is in a lowered state, when the head support plate 60 needs to be lifted, the user pulls out the knob 25 attached to the screw 20 to the outside and then rotates it. The placement of the right and left threaded portions 21 and 22 brings the runners 30a and 30b closer together, thereby moving the arm 40 to the position shown in phantom in FIG. 3 and lifting the plate 50 or head support plate 60. After that, the user pushes the knob 25 until the knob is hidden inward so that the user is not injured.

The lowering of the head support plate 60 is performed by rotating the knob 25 in the opposite direction. A wrap of tea or other material may be provided in the pillow on the head support plate 60 for added comfort to the user's head. In the embodiment described above, because of the long pillow, two sets of right and left screw parts and two sets of supporting means are used, but only one set of right and left screw parts and supporting means are used. However, the height can be similarly adjusted by the same method as described above.

[0010]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, the pillow of the present invention is adjustable in height so that it can be adjusted to the optimum height according to the user's preference, and can be compressed and lowered for a long period of use. Can be any height.
