Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Example 1
As shown in fig. 1, the snore detecting method based on the intelligent snore stopping pillow comprises the following steps:
s1: collecting snore signals through a piezoelectric film;
s2: amplifying the collected snore signals through a signal amplifying circuit;
s3: the amplified snore signal is filtered through a signal filtering circuit;
s4: performing data processing on the filtered snore signals through a preset program, and identifying snore characteristics;
s5: and statistically recording snore data of the user.
In step S4, the preset program adopts A/D to collect the filtered snore analog signal, and the MCU converts the A/D collected signal into digital signal.
In step S4, the snore characteristics include volume, frequency, and duration of the snore, so as to determine the degree of snoring.
In step S1, the collected snore signals also include heartbeat, respiration, and body movement signals.
In step S3, the signal filtering circuit adopts a high-pass filter to filter the low-frequency signals of the heartbeat, respiration, and body movement signals to obtain the high-frequency snore signals.
As shown in fig. 2, if the three locations of the nose, pharynx and larynx become blocked while a person is sleeping, the respiratory airflow will impact these locations causing them to vibrate to different degrees.
The high-frequency snore signals generated by vocal cord vibration transmit the signals to the surface of the skin through human bones (including cervical vertebra, skull, and the like) and media such as muscle tissues, blood, tissue fluid and the like. Since the piezoelectric film sensor is sensitive to the response of the vibration signal, when the piezoelectric film sensor is placed on the head of a human body, the piezoelectric film sensor can record the vibration signal.
Due to the characteristics of the piezoelectric film, the vibration signal can be converted into a voltage signal, and then the snore signal of the user can be indirectly obtained by collecting the change of the output voltage of the piezoelectric film.
In the existing product process, a microphone (sound sensor) is usually adopted as a snore signal acquisition end, and the working principle of the microphone is as follows: the user snores to cause the vibration of the diaphragm, and the diaphragm can change the distance between the diaphragm and the polar plate, so that the conversion from the acoustic signal to the electric signal is completed. Only when the sound source signal reaches a certain degree, the snore signal can be collected by the microphone, and the snore detection precision is not high due to the fact that the snore signal can be collected by the microphone. And because the microphone is hard, the microphone can have obvious foreign body sensation when being implanted into some products, so the microphone is not suitable for being implanted into the pillow.
The problem can be avoided by adopting the piezoelectric film sensor as the snore signal acquisition end. The piezoelectric film sensor has good signal response characteristics as a flexible sensor, is very suitable for being applied to the snore stopping pillow to detect weak dynamic snore signals, and meanwhile, the sensor material is soft in texture and high in plasticity, can be highly attached to a soft pillow material, and does not cause foreign body sensation to a user. The detection precision of the snore stopping device can start the snore stopping function to intervene under the condition that the snore state of a body is not obvious, and the influence on the sleeping quality of a bedridden person due to the snore interference is avoided.
Because the output signal of the piezoelectric film is very weak, and the attenuation is very fast, the piezoelectric film is easily interfered by the external environment. Therefore, the signal has a certain loading capacity, so the signal is processed in the first step by amplification. The signal amplification circuit is used for amplifying the collected snore signals, so that the further processing of the back-end circuit is facilitated.
As shown in fig. 3, since the snorer's airway is usually narrower than normal, the compensatory contraction of the muscles of the throat keeps the airway open during daytime waking hours, and no blockage occurs. However, when sleeping at night, nerve excitability is reduced, muscles are relaxed, pharyngeal tissues are blocked, an upper airway is collapsed, and when airflow passes through a narrow part, vortex is generated and vibration is caused, so that snore occurs. Thus, snoring is a high frequency signal.
In the signal acquisition process, the piezoelectric film not only acquires snoring signals of a user, but also acquires heartbeat, respiration, body movement and other signals of the user, and the signals are useless signals for snore judgment of the user, so that the signals need to be filtered in the second step, and the heartbeat, respiration and body movement signals of the user are filtered. Since the frequency of these filtered signals is much lower than that of the snore signal, the filtering of the signals can be achieved by using a high-pass filter. After filtering, a pure snoring signal can be obtained.
After the signals are amplified and filtered, A/D acquisition can be carried out on the signals, the MCU converts the signals after AD acquisition into digital signals, and then the signals are processed through the digital signals, and the characteristics of the snore signals are identified, so that the sleeping state of the current user can be judged, and whether snoring occurs or not can be judged. The degree and length of snoring of the user can also be judged. Thus, the detection and recording of the snore signal are completed.
The piezoelectric film is used as a snore signal acquisition end, has good signal corresponding characteristics, is very suitable for being applied to the snore stopping pillow to detect weak dynamic snore signals, and the detection precision of the piezoelectric film can start the snore stopping function to intervene under the condition that the snore state of a body is not obvious, so that the influence on the sleeping quality of a bedridden person due to the snore interference is avoided; meanwhile, the piezoelectric film sensor material is soft in texture and high in plasticity, can be highly attached to a soft pillow material, and a user does not feel foreign body sensation.
Example 2
As shown in figure 4, the snore detecting device based on the intelligent snore stopping pillow comprises a pillow inner, wherein a piezoelectric film collector is arranged in the pillow inner, and the snore detecting device further comprises a signal amplifying circuit, a signal filtering circuit and an MCU which are sequentially and electrically connected.
The MCU is provided with an A/D acquisition circuit, the A/D acquisition circuit is electrically connected with the signal filtering circuit and the MCU, and the signal filtering circuit is provided with a high-pass filter.
As shown in fig. 5, the piezoelectric film collector is disposed on the headrest portion of the pillow core, and the headrest portion is in direct contact with the human body, so that vibration information can be fully acquired, and a snore signal can be conveniently collected.
The piezoelectric film collector nearly spans the whole pillow core, so that snore signals which can be detected when a user sleeps at different positions of the pillow are guaranteed. MCU, signal amplification circuit, signal filter circuit external integration are on the PCB board, avoid influencing the comfort level of pillow.
External PCB board still usually will be equipped with data interface, power source, and data interface adopts USB or Type-C interface, is provided with wireless bluetooth or WIFI module simultaneously, can carry out the data intercommunication with removal ends such as cell-phone APP, conveniently looks over the snore data of record.

What has been described above are merely some embodiments of the present invention. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the inventive concept thereof, and these changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
