US Patent:

6532611, Mar 18, 2003

Filed:

Jan 25, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/057006

Inventors:

Judy A. Day - Santa Cruz CA 95062

International Classification:

A47G 900

US Classification:

5636, 5640, 5644, 5951

Abstract:

Geometric configuration transformable pillows are disclosed having two configurations: one, where the granular fill contents of the pillow are positioned in a first geometric configuration end, in one embodiment a collar end, of a pillowcase to form for example a horseshoe-shaped type of pillow enclosure similar to neck pillows known at this time. Alternately, an empty main body flap of the pillowcase may be released by a reversible fastening system and fill material allowed to move to a second geometric configuration end, in one embodiment a plain end, of the pillow so that two tubular end sections which formerly formed the collars of the neck pillow are now empty and can be at least partially everted and folded, rolled, or otherwise bunched up and captured by the now oppositely turned reversible fastening system within the pillowcase to form a rectangular-type pillow. It is expected that such a pillow would be used with organic granular-type fill materials, such as buckwheat husks (hulls).

Abstract:

A transformable travel (neck) pillow is disclosed having two configurations: one, where the granular fill contents of the pillow are positioned in a collar end of a pillowcase to form a horseshoe-shaped type of pillow enclosure similar to neck pillows known at this time. Alternately, a flap of the pillowcase may be released and fill material allowed to move to a plain end of the pillow so that two tubular end sections which formerly formed the collars of the neck pillow are now empty and can be folded over the side of the pillowcase to form a rectangular-type pillow. It is expected that such a pillow would be used with organic granular-type fill materials, such as buckwheat husks (hulls).

International Classification:

A47G 9/10
A47G 9/04
A47G 9/02

Abstract:

A transformable pillow systems which utilizes granular material within an outer case which is adapted to configure in one of two configurations, such that in one configuration the pillow presents a first option for use as a collared pillow adapted for neck support, while the second configuration is adapted to for use as a traditional flat pillow. The configurations may be adapted to have ornamental aspects which create animal characters in one or both of the configurations.
