Anatomically shaped pillow

Abstract

The present invention relates to an anatomically shaped pillow that, in particular, can be used as a whole-body pillow comprising, when viewed in plan view, at least one curved portion and at least one comparatively elongated middle portion for the body region, which middle portion makes a transition to the curved portion, wherein at least one limb of the pillow is provided for the head region, and at least one limb of the pillow is provided for the body region. It is the object of the invention to create an anatomically shaped pillow that provides a resting person in a largely stretched-out state or with the legs only slightly bent in a natural sleeping position both with support along the body, and with support in the head region. According to the invention, for this purpose the limb of the head region and the limb of the body region form an acute angle relative to each other.

1 . An anatomically shaped pillow that, in particular, can be used as a whole-body pillow comprising, when viewed in plan view, at least one curved portion and at least one comparatively elongated middle portion for the body region, which middle portion makes a transition to the curved portion, wherein at least one limb of the pillow is provided for the head region, and at least one limb of the pillow is provided for the body region, characterised in that the limb ( 11 ) of the head region and the limb ( 12 ) of the body region form an acute angle relative to each other. 
     
     
         2 . The anatomically shaped pillow according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the comparatively elongated middle portion, which forms the limb ( 12 ) of the body region, extends in a slight curvature that is curved in the opposite direction when compared to the direction of the curved portion ( 14 ). 
     
     
         3 . The anatomically shaped pillow according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the limb ( 12 ) of the body region makes a transition to a limb ( 13 ) of the foot region, which limb ( 13 ) extends in a straight line at the end. 
     
     
         4 . The anatomically shaped pillow according to  claim 3 , characterised in that said pillow approximately assumes the plan view shape of the figure seven, wherein the limb ( 11 ) of the head region forms the head of the figure seven, the limb ( 12 ) of the body region forms the middle portion of the figure seven, and the limb ( 13 ) of the foot region forms the lower end foot of the figure seven. 
     
     
         5 . The anatomically shaped pillow according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the limb ( 11 ) of the head region in its free end region ( 15 ) has a larger cross section than in the remaining regions. 
     
     
         6 . The anatomically shaped pillow according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the limb ( 11 ) of the head region in its free end region ( 14 ) has a larger cross section than the limb ( 12 ) of the body region. 
     
     
         7 . The anatomically shaped pillow according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the pillow ( 10 ) has a rounded, almost cylindrical, oval or elliptical cross section. 
     
     
         8 . The anatomically shaped pillow according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the pillow ( 10 ) comprises a pillow cover ( 24 ) that is filled with fill material shapes ( 25 ,  27 ) so that the pillow yields in response to weight pressure. 
     
     
         9 . The anatomically shaped pillow according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the pillow, at least in the limb ( 12 ) of the body region, comprises an outer pillow cover ( 24 ) within which an inner cover ( 26 ) is arranged so as to be spaced apart from said outer pillow cover ( 24 ), wherein in the space between the outer pillow cover and the inner cover at least one nonwoven fabric ( 25 ) is arranged. 
     
     
         10 . The anatomically shaped pillow according to  claim 9 , characterised in that the interior of the inner cover ( 26 ) comprises micro beads ( 27 ). 
     
     
         11 . The anatomically shaped pillow according to  claim 1 , characterised in that the pillow ( 10 ) at least in the limb ( 11 ) of the head region comprises a fill material, preferably with rhombic fill material shapes, made of foamed material, which fill material shapes are larger than the fill material shapes in the limb ( 12 ) of the body region.
