Definitions

  • the invention relates to a water pillow, in particular a water pillow, which is provided with two types of fillings, namely with a filling made of flexible, compressible material and a separate chamber that can be filled with a liquid, in particular water.
  • Such a water cushion has become known, for example, from PCT publication WO-96/27315.
  • This known water pillow which is intended in particular to alleviate headache and / or neck pain, comprises a relatively large-volume filling made of a flexible, compressible material, for example a fiber material, and a top view of this filling, which is relatively small in volume - complete water cushion or a water chamber.

  • the known water cushions have the disadvantages that they can only be cleaned as one unit, i.e. are washable.
  • the washing temperature then depends on the temperature-sensitive of the materials used, and since this is usually the plastic material for the water chamber, such a known water cushion cannot be washed at higher temperatures, especially not at the cooking temperature (95 ° C).
  • Such washing at higher temperatures, and here in particular at the cooking temperature is often indispensable for hygienic reasons, for example in medical use.

Since the casing for the filling material and the common casing are accessible via closable openings, access to the individual fillings (filling material and water chamber) is possible. This also makes it possible to change either the degree of filling of the filling material and / or the degree of filling of the water chamber as desired or as required. Furthermore, it is possible to remove the water chamber from the common casing in the event of cleaning, after which it can be easily washed at the cooking temperature, provided the appropriate materials are used. This ensures the highest level of hygiene and cleanliness.

  • Zippers are easy to operate and offer a secure and reliable fastener that is also resistant to aging, for example in contrast to Velcro fasteners.
  • the common shell which takes up filling material and water chamber, is preferably housed in an allergy coating.
  • This allergy cover forms, as it were, the outer wall or outer layer of the entire water cushion and serves to improve lying comfort, since it can, for example, also be padded (padded, filled, etc.). Furthermore, the allergy cover serves to keep possible allergenic substances away from the user of the water cushion.

  • the common casing is furthermore reversible in such a way that the zipper, which encloses the casing for the filling material in the common casing, is turned to the inside of the common casing.
  • This zipper is less noticeable, so that the • lying comfort is improved thus after the completed turning operation from the outside is no longer visible, and also because of the intervening material of the common sheath far.

This allows the degree of filling and thus hardness of urination to be changed further by adding or removing the compliant, compressible material.
  • All casings are preferably made of a material that can be washed at cooking temperature if required, which means that the entire water cushion can be hygienically cleaned.
  • the water chamber is preferably surrounded by an additional waterproof safety cover in order to be able to catch escaping water in the event of leaks in the water chamber.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un coussin d'eau, notamment un oreiller d'eau, à rembourrage (18) en matériau compressible élastique et comportant une cavité (24) séparée à remplir d'un liquide, notamment d'eau. Le matériau compressible élastique est disposé dans une enveloppe (14) indépendante, séparée de la cavité d'eau, cette enveloppe (14) et la cavité d'eau (24) se trouvant ensemble dans une autre enveloppe commune (8) qui sert aussi à les séparer l'une de l'autre. Toutes ces enveloppes sont dotées d'ouvertures pouvant être fermées au moyen de fermetures à glissière (22, 30). De par sa conception, ce coussin d'eau (2) est extrêmement polyvalent en termes d'utilisation et d'adaptation, il est également en grande partie lavable, même à 90 DEG C, donc très hygiénique.
