Abstract

A full head support travel pillow which is convertible to a cushion is disclosed. The inflatable pillow is adjustable to a user's dimensions and fits inside of a casing which doubles as the cushion casing for the foldable compartment pillow.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A full head support interconnected inflatable connected compartment travel pillow comprising:
 A combination of solid shaped interconnected inflatable compartments configured surrounding a user's head neck and chin;   the combination of compartments comprising a pair of inflatable triangle trapezoid shape mirroring compartments fitting adjacent to and supporting a user's right and left side of head face centered more or less at the ear and positioned just above the right shoulder;   the pair of mirroring side compartments independently flexibly with air-tight contiguously joined or otherwise flexible coupled at the vertical edges of a plate shaped rectangular trapezoid back compartment abutting the back of a user's head and neck;.   the back compartment corners flexibly coupled to tubular ‘L’ shaped air-tight compartments emerging from the back plate shaped compartment right and left vertical edges respectively and extending around the user's neck with distal ends meeting and overlaying under the user's chin, the ‘L’ compartment distal ends with enlarged cross-sections adjustably spanning the distance from the user's chin to the user's chest;   at least one air valve for inflating/deflating the air-tight combination of compartments;   the combination of compartments of dimensions surrounding the user's head back sides neck and chin, and made of flexible materials for containing pressurized air, and   the solid shaped interconnected inflatable compartments having inflatable lining in air-tight communication with each other with a cloth layer containing the compartments, and zippers for storage of deflated compartments into a cover integrated cushion.   
     
     
         2 . The travel pillow as in  claim 1  further comprising a foldable pillow casing foldable into a cushion from the casing material and construction. 
     
     
         3 . The travel pillow as in  claim 1  further comprising a foldable pillow casing with pockets for storing electronic travel devices. 
     
     
         4 . The travel pillow as in  claim 1  further comprising compartment configuration inflation adjustable spaces around the neck and cheeks to allow user head, neck and chin self adjustable heating and cooling from natural convection in and surrounding user's head. 
     
     
         5 . The travel pillow as in  claim 1  wherein the inflatable compartment material are selected from a set of materials including plastic, rubber, spandex and expandable air-holding synthetic. 
     
     
         6 . The travel pillow as in  claim 1  wherein the casing material is selected from a set of materials consisting of cotton, denim, leather, nylon, synthetics, wool, water proof, sound absorbing, convoluted foam, acoustic foam, anti-bacterial and cleanable fabric composites. 
     
     
         7 . The travel pillow as in  claim 1  having pockets on the pillow casing for travel storage of and ready access to valuables and travel items. 
     
     
         8 . A method of creating a travel pillow comprising the steps of:
 providing a combination of solid shaped interconnected inflatable compartments surrounding a user's head neck and chin;   connecting the compartments such that a pair of inflatable triangle trapezoid shape mirroring compartments fit adjacent to and support a user's right and left side of head with a planar face centered more or less at the ear and positioned just above the right shoulder;   flexibly coupling the pair of mirroring side compartments independently with air-tight compartment walls contiguously joined at the vertical edges of a plate shaped rectangular trapezoid back compartment abutting the back of a user's head and neck;   connecting the back compartment corners to inflatable compartments with tubular ‘L’ emerging from the back plate shaped compartment right and left vertical edges respectively and extending around the user's neck with distal ends meeting and overlaying under the user's chin, the ‘L’ compartment distal ends with enlarged cross-sections adjustably spanning the distance from the user's chin to the user's chest;   providing the interconnected compartments with at least one air valve for inflating/deflating the air-tight configuration of inflatable compartments;   dimensioning the compartment configuration for surrounding the user's head back sides neck and chin, with expandable flexible materials for containing pressurized air, and   encasing the solid shaped interconnected deflated compartments in a covering convertible to pillow storage in a cushion.   
     
     
         9 . The method of creating a travel pillow as in  claim 8  further comprising the steps of using flexible material pillow casing for folding the compartmentalized deflated pillow into a cushion made from the pillow casing material and construction. 
     
     
         10 . The method of creating travel pillow as in  claim 8  further comprising the steps of adding at least on pocket on the pillow casing away from head facing surfaces for storing electronic travel devices. 
     
     
         11 . The method of creating travel pillow as in  claim 8  further comprising the steps of dimensioning and configuring compartments providing spaces around the neck and cheeks to allow user head, neck and chin self adjustable heating and cooling from natural convection in and surrounding user's head. 
     
     
         12 . The method of creating travel pillow as in  claim 8  further comprising the steps of using inflatable compartment material selected from a set of materials including plastic, rubber, spandex and expandable air-holding synthetic. 
     
     
         13 . The method of creating travel pillow as in  claim 8  further comprising the steps of using the casing material selected from a set of materials consisting of cotton, denim, leather, nylon, synthetics, wool, water proof, sound absorbing, convoluted foam, acoustic foam, anti-bacterial and cleanable fabric composites.
