Abstract
An adjustable head and neck support has a common adjustment mechanism by which a coupled movement of a head support area and a neck support area is enabled. The adjustment mechanism is configured in such a way that, on the one hand, a linear, joint height adjustment of the head support area and the neck support area in a Z direction is enabled and, on the other hand, alternatively, only a swivel adjustment of at least the neck support area is enabled, so that the neck support area can be swiveled forward in the direction of a user. The adjustment mechanism is embodied in particular as an asymmetrically configured toggle lever mechanism. This allows for easy adjustment of the head and neck support.
