Next, the operation of the tow pillow of this embodiment described above will be described. First, the user is placed on the floor 2 and the back edge of the user is placed on the pillow member 16 with the high edge 16a on the neck side, and the user lies on his back. At that time, the neck portion lies between the pair of pulling protrusions 70 and 72. When a load due to the weight of the head placed on the pillow member 16 is applied, the pillow member 16 resists the biasing force of the elastic member 50 and changes in accordance with the tilt angles of the first inclined surface 22 and the second inclined surface 24. Then, the acting force for moving the pillow member 16 acts along the first inclined surface 22 and the second inclined surface 24.

Further, for example, when the neck portion is placed on the high edge portion 16 a and a load is applied thereto, an action force for separating the head end of the pillow member 16 from the support base 1 acts. At this time, the engagement members 44 and 46 prevent the pillow member 16 from floating by coming into contact with the first engagement surface 36 and the second engagement surface 38.

Therefore, while the pair of rollers 8 and 10 in contact with the first inclined surface 22 and the second inclined surface 24 of the pillow member 16 rotate, the pillow member 16 moves the first inclined surface 22 and the second inclined surface 24. Move along the slope of surface 24. The movement of the pillow member 16 causes the pulling projections 70 and 72 to be caught on the head protruding from the neck, pulling the head evenly on both sides of the neck on the cervical line and pulling the neck and back. To extend. This allows the head to be towed straight without pulling from the left or right side of the head during towing and slipping, which helps maintain and improve health. Further, in this embodiment, since the tips of the pulling projections 70 and 72 press the acupuncture points on both sides of the neck, the effect of acupressure can be expected.

Moreover, by providing the insertion holes 58, 60 and the hexagonal shaft portions 66, 68 which are eccentric from the centers of the pulling projections 70, 72, the hexagonal shaft portions 66, 68 are once pulled out from the insertion holes 58, 60. The pulling protrusions 70 and 72 are rotated, and the hexagonal shaft portions 66 and 68 are inserted into the insertion holes 58 and 60 again. As a result, the distance between the two pulling protrusions 70, 72 can be adjusted according to the thickness of the user's neck.

That is, in the present embodiment, since the hexagonal shape is hexagonal, the pair of traction protrusions 70 and 72 can be rotated every 60 degrees to adjust the distance according to the rotational position, and the hexagonal shaft portion Since 66 and 68 are inserted into the insertion holes 58 and 60, the pulling protrusions 70 and 72 do not rotate even when a rotational force acts on them.

In the present embodiment, the circular holes 62 and 64 are provided concentrically with the hexagonal holes 58 and 60, and the round shaft portions 74 and 76 are provided. Since it is possible to rotate the pulling projections 70 and 72 without completely removing the hexagonal shafts 66 and 68, the hexagonal shaft portions 66 and 68 can be easily inserted into the insertion holes 58 and 60.

The present invention is not limited to such embodiments as described above, and can be implemented in various modes without departing from the scope of the present invention.
