PILLOWS WITH LARGE DIAMETER CLEAVING FOR ENHANCED LATERAL SOFTNESS
A pillow including a main body having a top support surface, a bottom support surface and rounded ends joining the top and bottom support surfaces about a rounded profile. The rounded profile of the pillow has no recessed areas where a thickness of the main body decreases progressively towards an edge of the main body. The main body is made of a cellular material. The pillow includes a plurality of holes defined to extend through the main body and include openings on the top and bottom support surfaces. The holes have a constant circular cross section having a diameter of ⅝ inch or greater.
1 . A pillow comprising:
a main body having a top support surface, a bottom support surface and rounded ends joining the top and bottom support surfaces about a rounded profile having no recessed areas where a thickness of the man body decreases progressively towards an edge of the main body, the main body made of a cellular material; and
a plurality of holes defined to extend through the main body and include openings on the top and bottom support surfaces, the holes including a constant circular cross section having a diameter of ⅝ inch or greater.
2 . The pillow of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of holes are evenly and symmetrically distributed on the main body.
3 . The pillow of claim 1 , wherein plurality of holes are distributed in non-symmetrically on the main body.
4 . The pillow of claim 1 , wherein the diameter of each hole is 5 / 8 inch or greater and varies from each other hole of the plurality of holes.
5 . A pillow comprising:
a pad having a thickness, a top support surface, a bottom support surface and rounded ends joining the top and bottom support surfaces about a rounded profile, the pad having no recessed areas where a thickness of the man body decreases progressively towards a single edge of the pad, the pad made of a cellular material; and
a plurality of holes, each hole having an axial extension transverse to the top and bottom support surfaces and extending through the thickness to define an opening on the top and bottom support surfaces, the plurality of holes including a constant circular cross section having a diameter of ⅝ inch or greater.
6 . The pillow of claim 5 , wherein the plurality of holes are evenly and symmetrically distributed on the pad.
7 . The pillow of claim 5 , wherein plurality of holes are distributed in non-symmetrically on the pad.
8 . The pillow of claim 5 , wherein the diameter of each hole varies from each other hole of the plurality of holes.
9 . A method of forming a pillow comprising:
providing a pad having a thickness, a top support surface, a bottom support surface and rounded ends joining the top and bottom support surfaces about a constant rounded profile that extends the length and width of the pad, the pad made of a cellular material; and
cleaving a plurality of holes with each hole having an axial extension transverse to the top and bottom support surfaces and extending through the thickness to define an opening on the top and bottom support surfaces, the plurality of holes including a constant circular cross section having a diameter of ⅝ inch or greater.
