The present invention is directed towards a travel pillow for sleeping in a vertical or near-vertical reclined position. When sleeping in these positions, gravity tends to pull the head forward of the shoulders causing it to droop. The current state of the art travel pillow does not provide a support means to counter this forward drooping tendency. Moreover, its rear support displaces the cervical spine forward, further increasing the tendency for the head to slump forward. The present invention holds a resting head in an upright and stable position to prevent forward head drooping and does so without forwardly displaying the cervical spine. The five novel elements of the present invention are integrally configured to maintain a healthy alignment between the occipital bone of the head, the cervical spine of the neck, and the thoracic spine of the upper back.

The present disclosure pertains to a pillow system, in particular a pillow system that surrounds the subject's head, and moves with the subject. In some embodiments, the pillow system provides sound suppression. In some embodiments used with positive airways pressure (PAP) systems, the pillow system includes a tube that delivers breathable gas to a mask.

A bolster pillow which provides adequate support, without deforming or collapsing, to a user while being lightweight and commercially viable. The bolster pillow includes an internal rigid tube, a cushioned sleeve, an internal cover, and an external cover. The internal rigid tube acts as the structural support element to ensure the overall shape of the bolster pillow and does not change regardless of the number of uses. The internal sleeve envelops the internal rigid tube and extends from a first end to a second end of the internal rigid tube. The cushioned sleeve adds padding to the bolster pillow for increased comfort. The cushioned sleeve is concentrically positioned with the internal rigid tube and is positioned about the internal cover, opposite the internal rigid tube. The external cover tensionably envelops the internal rigid tube, the internal cover, and the cushioned sleeve.

An ergonomic pillow system, a pillow insert apparatus, a pillow cover system, and methods of use are presented. An ergonomic pillow system, a pillow insert apparatus, a pillow cover system, and methods of use for sleeping are presented. Said another way, the following provides a unique ergonomic pillow which provides benefits of comfort and alignment for a user via a contoured insert. The system is made comfortable through the methods of use and the layers further described.

The present disclosure discloses a travel pillow, including: a lashing strap, a pillowcase, and an inner support. The inner support is received in the pillowcase; a first end of the lashing strap is fixedly connected to the inner support through the pillowcase; a second end of the lashing strap opposite to the first end is detachably connected to the first end; the inner support includes a first support and a second support; and the first support and the second support are configured to be elastically adaptively connected to each other in a supporting direction. The travel pillow can absorb vibration, achieve buffering, and avoid poor experience or the risk of falling caused by the vibration or posture adjustment.

Embodiments of cradle frames and cushions are described herein. A cradle frame includes a connection assembly, a support assembly, an adjustment assembly, and a gear assembly. The connection assembly is configured to couple the cradle frame to a structure. The support assembly includes two side sections, and a middle section that is curved downward and positioned substantially between the two side sections. The adjustment assembly is coupled to the support assembly for adjusting the positioning of the support assembly. The gear assembly is coupled to the adjustment assembly for controlling the positioning of the support assembly. A cushion has a contoured upper side, and one or more opening in the middle part of the cushion on the underside.

A pillow may include a pillow form that includes a neck rest and a head rest, and a sleep controller that includes a body, at least one pair of vertically moving rods, and an actuating module configured to actuate the vertically moving rods.

The nursing aid and child protection system provides a cushioned support to aid in feeding a child. The nursing aid and child protection system includes inner frames to provide rigid support and a cushion on the inner frames to provide a comfortable position for the mother and the child. Thus, the nursing aid and child protection system assists feedings at any hour, allowing them a safe, comfortable way to position the mother and the child in a relaxing position and creating a safer environment for the child.

An apparatus for assisting sleep is provided that includes a body, a central groove formed in a center of the body and extending in a first direction, and a plurality of accommodation grooves formed in a symmetrical shape with respect to the central groove and arranged in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, in which the plurality of accommodation grooves is disposed closer to an upper end of the body than a lower end of the body.

An adjustable pillow has: a lower member, an upper member, and a lifting mechanism; the lower member having a neck supporting section at one end and an assembly space adjacent to the neck supporting section, the upper member having an assembly protrusion and a head supporting section extending from the assembly protrusion; wherein the assembly protrusion is capable of being correspondingly disposed in the assembly space such that the head supporting section is lower than the neck supporting section, and the assembly protrusion further comprises an accepting space at a bottom side for accepting the lifting mechanism for mounting between the lower member and the upper member.
