Abstract

A balance pillow includes a body having a wave-shaped top surface and a first protrusion and a second protrusion transversely protrude from the top surface. A recessed area is defined between the first and second protrusions, and the first protrusion is higher than the second protrusion. The first protrusion has an inner recessed area which is shaped to be correspondent to the curvature of a user's neck. A circular recess is defined between the first and second protrusions and the recessed area. The circular recess is shaped to be correspondent to the curvature of a user's head. An inner recess is defined in the inner end of the circular recess and smaller than an occipital of a skull. The balance pillow supports evenly occipital which is engaged with the inner recess.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A balance pillow comprising:
 a body having a wave-shaped top surface from which a first protrusion and a second protrusion transversely protrude, a recessed area defined between the first and second protrusions, the first protrusion being higher than the second protrusion, the first protrusion having an inner recessed area which is shaped to be correspondent to a curvature of a user's neck, a circular recess defined between the first and second protrusions and the recessed area, the circular recess being shaped to be correspondent to a curvature of a user's head, an inner recess defined in an inner end of the circular recess and being smaller than an occipital of a skull, the inner recess being contoured to match the occipital of a skull and being resiliently compressible, when the inner recess is resiliently compressed by the occipital of the skull, an inner end of the inner recess is shaped to be correspondent to a curvature of a position of a user's head where the occipital is located to contact and support the occipital.   
     
     
         2 . The pillow as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the first protrusion extends inclined toward an underside of the body. 
     
     
         3 . The pillow as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein a slope of the first protrusion is correspondent to a user's shoulder. 
     
     
         4 . The pillow as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the circular recess and the inner recess are shaped to be correspondent to a curvature of user's head, the inner recessed area is shaped to be correspondent to a curvature of user's neck. 
     
     
         5 . (canceled) 
     
     
         6 . The pillow as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the inner recess is substantially a triangular recess. 
     
     
         7 . The pillow as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the inner recess is substantially a circular recess. 
     
     
         8 . The pillow as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the inner recess is substantially a polygonal recess. 
     
     
         9 . The pillow as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the body has multiple passages defined through the top surface and an underside thereof.
