Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to absorb a shock received by the head of human body without the occurrence of reactions, and to increase safety by providing a gel material layer which absorbs a shock due to nonelastic deformation behind the head receiving face of the head of human body. CONSTITUTION:The head rest unit consists of a core frame 1 made of solid material such as metal and fabricated in a seat, a highly cushioned elastic base 2 which is made to bury the core frame 1, a low cushioned elastic support wall 3 heavily layered in front of the elastic base 2, a head receiving face 4 formed of spread sheet material in front of the elastic support wall 3, and a gel material layer made of gel materials filled in a vacant space 5 between the elastic support wall 3 and the head receiving face 4. Thus, when a shock is given by such as a rear-end collision, the head of the human body changes the shape of the gel material layer 6 abruptly, deforms the elastic support wall 3, and comes into the elastic base 2 simultaneously due to the deformation of the elastic support wall 3. Accordingly the shock can be absorbed without the occurrence of reactions.

<Prior art> In conventional devices of this type, the receiving part that supports the head of the human body is made of an elastic layer, for example, a molded product such as foamed polyurethane, and a supporting body such as a core frame is embedded inside the receiving part. I'm making it.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> In such a headrest device, the head of the human body is supported by the elastic layer, so if a sudden and strong impact is applied to the head, such as in a rear-end collision, the head will be damaged. Since the part is once immersed into the elastic layer and then pressed forward by the repulsive force of this elastic layer, there is a problem that the repulsive force of the elastic layer deteriorates the impact force absorption effect of the entire layer.

Means for Solving the Problems> In the device of the present invention, a gel substance is filled in the head holder, and an elastic supporting wall with small cushioning properties is formed behind the head receiving part, and further behind this elastic supporting wall there is a gel material. A base with large cushioning properties is arranged, and the above-mentioned three-layer structure is configured to attenuate and absorb impact.

In the device of the present invention, the impact applied to the head of the human body is absorbed by the inelastic deformation of the gel material layer, and is also absorbed by the elastic deformation of the elastic support wall and the flexible and large elastic deformation of the base that receives the impact. In addition, since the restoring repulsive force between the base and the elastic supporting wall reaches the head while being absorbed by the inelastic deformation of the gel material layer, the repulsive elastic force received by one head can be reduced.

Embodiment Examples As shown in FIG. 1, the headrest device of the present invention includes six frames 1 made of a hard material such as metal and attached to a seat (not shown), and is made so that the six frames 1 are buried. An elastic base 2 with high cushioning properties, for example, a pillow body made of foamed polyurethane resin or foamed polyethylene resin, which is foam-molded 60 times, and an elastic support wall 3 with low cushioning properties, layered on the front surface of the base 2, for example. The layer made of the foamable resin is foam-molded to about 30 times the size, and the head receiving surface 4 is formed by expanding a flexible fabric, for example, a sheet material made of urethane resin, on the front surface of the elastic support wall 3. A gel material layer 6 is formed by filling a gel material into a cavity 5 formed between the elastic support wall 3 and the head receiving surface 4.

The gel material forming the gel material layer 6 has a total weight of 50 to 20
0, particularly preferably one with a scale of 100 to 200. If the scale is too small, the shock absorbing power will deteriorate, and if the scale is too large, the reaction force applied to the head will become a problem.

Since the device of the present invention is as described above, for example, if a car is hit from behind while driving, the head of the human body will rapidly deform the gel material layer 6 and distort the elastic support wall 3 with low cushioning properties. At the same time, the supporting wall 3 sinks into the base 2 due to deformation.

At this time, the gel material layer 6 deforms the support wall 3 while absorbing the impact force received from the human head through inelastic deformation, so that the repulsive force due to the reaction force applied to the human head at the moment of impact is small. It's done.

After the base 2 and the supporting wall 3 are deformed by the impact force and absorbing the impact force, the restoring force of the base 2 and the elastic supporting wall 3 acts on the head as a repulsive force, causing the head to bounce forward. However, in this case as well, the deformation of the gel material layer 6 is inelastic deformation, so it has the effect of attenuating the repulsion elastic force against one head.

Therefore, the instantaneous force caused by the elastic force applied to the human head can be effectively attenuated by the deformation of the gel material layer 6.

In the above, the device of the present invention may be configured such that the elastic base 2 and the elastic support wall 3 are made separately and combined as shown in FIG. In this case, after filling the void 5 with a gel substance, the void 5 is sealed with an elastic piece 51 to form a pillow body A, and this pillow body A is attached to the base 2. Just do it.

When the pillow body A is made separately in this way, the elastic piece 51 of the pillow body A may form the head support surface 4, but normally the pillow body A and the base 2 are made into one body. The front part of the enveloping outer covering layer 41 is used as the head receiving surface 4.

<Effects of the Invention> As described above, since the device of the present invention is provided with the gel material layer 6 that absorbs shock through inelastic deformation behind the head receiving surface 4 that receives the human head, A car has been created that absorbs sudden shocks without producing any repulsive force. Therefore, even if the impact force applied to the human head is instantaneously strong, such as in a rear-end collision, this is absorbed by the repulsive force. This has the effect that it can be transmitted to the base 2 side while being well attenuated without causing any increase in the amount.
