Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for awakening a person by means of a wake-up device, comprising a wake-up device and a motion sensor coupled via radio with the wake-up device, wherein the movements of the sleeping person are used to trigger a wake-up, and a wake-up device for performing the method.
  • REM phases deep sleep phases with light sleep phases (active sleep phases), so-called REM phases.
  • REM phase which is a time of increased dream activity, occurs about every 4 to 10 minutes approximately every 100 minutes, with a duration of 10 to 30 minutes, during normal sleep.
  • the deep sleep phases With increasing sleep duration the deep sleep phases become continuously shorter and less deep, while the REM phases become longer and longer.
  • An unnatural interruption or reduction of certain sleep phases can lead to functional mental disorders, such as excessive fatigue, irritable mood, conspicuous lack of concentration or even anxiety.
  • the disadvantage here is that the awakening is done independently of an adjustable wake-up time and that the Sleeping is connected by sensors on the eyes and via wire connections with the alarm clock.
  • the measurement of the muscle tone is used to determine the REM sleep, which decreases significantly when reaching the REM phase.
  • DE-A - 196 42 316 and DE-A - 43 03 933 devices are described for awakening, in which a wirelessly coupled to a wake-up sensor for detecting the sleep phases is provided, wherein the alarm device according to variable predefinable conditions during a certain Sleep phase is activated.
  • a method for awakening in which, after registering an alarm time and a waking time tolerance, the sleep state of the person to be awakened is continuously or temporarily tested, the current time is compared with a time interval and tolerance calculated waking time tolerance range and is only awakened when the current time at or in the wake-up time tolerance range and there is no unfavorable sleep phase or when the wake-up time tolerance range is over.
  • the determination of the sleep state via the measurement of physiological parameters, such as pulse, respiratory rate, skin moisture, temperature, brain waves and the like.
  • a disadvantage of this method is the fact that the measurement of the parameters must be controlled and can not be triggered automatically by changing a measured parameter, resulting in a higher number of measurements for safe detection of sleep state and the sleeper thus a higher exposure to electromagnetic waves , Radio waves or other radiation is exposed.
  • most physiological parameters require complex and for the sleepy mostly inconvenient and sometimes permanently connected to a processing unit measuring devices that can affect sleep.
  • the object of the invention is to avoid these disadvantages and difficulties, and has as its object to provide a method and a device for awakening, which does not put the sleeping person under any unnecessary stress and does not diminish his quality of sleep, At the same time, however, it allows awakening in a sleeping state favorable for the sleeping person, so that the conditions for an improvement or maintenance of the efficiency are ensured.
  • This object is achieved in that only after registration of a movement by the sensor, the coupling between the alarm and motion sensor is activated.
  • the present invention is based on the discovery that the movements of a person in sleep are associated with particular sleep phases. It has been found that at the beginning and at the end of certain sleep phases there is increased body movement, which makes it possible to differentiate between the individual sleep phases. If the movements are tracked during sleep, then a specific pattern of light sleep and deep sleep phases can be detected, which can be used to trigger a wake-up process.
  • the registered movements of the sleeper is closed by means of an algorithm on its sleep state.
  • the algorithm can be determined, for example, by storing the movements of one or more sleep cycles when the alarm device is deactivated.
  • the use of an algorithm for assessing sleep state has the advantage that errors due to random movements, which do not announce the beginning or the end of a REM phase, can be switched off.
  • the activation of the alarm device is expediently carried out as a function of the sleep state, the alarm being triggered during a psychologically and physically favorable sleep phase. It is particularly advantageous in this case if the activation within a wake-up time specification, such as within a period of half an hour, e.g. between 5.45 and 6.15, takes place, since it makes it possible to induce an awakening of the sleeping person independently of a certain, possibly unfavorable time.
  • a wake-up time specification such as within a period of half an hour, e.g. between 5.45 and 6.15
  • the activation of the wake-up device preferably takes place after predefinable sleep cycles of successive deep sleep and light sleep phases. In many people, a certain number of deep sleep and light sleep phases will suffice for complete recovery. The otherwise unnecessarily dormant time spent after the required sleep phases can be usefully used by waking up to the specification of a particular sleep cycle.
  • the awakening can be done individually differently by means of sensory, acoustic or optical stimuli.
  • a wake-up device for carrying out the method described above which comprises a wake-up device and a motion sensor coupled to the wake-up device by radio, wherein a transmitter and a receiver are provided for radio coupling, characterized in that the transmitter and the receiver are arranged to first through Registration of a movement to be sent or received to be activated.
  • the motion sensor is formed by an accelerometer.
  • the motion sensor is designed as an ultrasound, infrared or microwave sensor.
  • the motion sensor is designed in the form of a wristwatch.
  • the device according to the invention expediently comprises an adjustment device for presetting an alarm time and / or sleep cycles.
  • the alarm device has a bell or comprises a light activation unit, which cause an awakening of the sleeping person acoustically or optically, as soon as the alarm is initiated.
  • Fig. 1 a sleep phase diagram with associated movement pattern
  • Fig. 2 an embodiment of the alarm device according to the invention in a schematic representation illustrate.
  • Fig. 1 shows an average sleep phase diagram in which for a sleep time of about 8 hours (abscissa) the sequence of the individual sleep phases and analogous to the movement pattern are shown graphically.
  • wakefulness, the REM state, and various stages of sleep are plotted as levels 1 through 4, with the depth of sleep increasing from level 1 to level 4.
  • the two states "movements" and "no movements” are indicated on the ordinate associated with the movement pattern.
  • the diagram clearly shows a change of deep sleep and light sleep phases (REM phases), whereby the duration and depth of the deep sleep phases decrease with increasing sleep duration.
  • the duration of the REM phases increases towards the sleepers.
  • a sleep time or time period Z favorable for the sleeping person is determined by awaiting the end of a REM phase or precalculating by means of an algorithm. Whether the wake-up is to be triggered for the first possible favorable time or the last possible, can be chosen arbitrarily.
  • the inventive device for waking comprises a motion sensor 1, which may be formed by an accelerometer or designed as an ultrasonic, infrared or microwave sensor.
  • the motion sensor 1 is arranged separately from a wake-up device 2, wherein the coupling of these components by means of a radio device with transmitter 6 and receiver 7 takes place.
  • the radio communication between the two parts 6 and 7 is activated only upon registration of movement by the motion sensor 1, so that the burden of radio waves for the sleeper is low.
  • the motion sensor 1 is advantageously designed in the form of a wristwatch.
  • the device according to the invention comprises a real-time device 4, such as a clock, and an adjustment device 5 for specifying an alarm time and / or sleep cycles, which are both connected to a processing unit 3.
  • a real-time device 4 such as a clock
  • an adjustment device 5 for specifying an alarm time and / or sleep cycles, which are both connected to a processing unit 3.
  • the processing unit 3 is sent a signal and utilized by the latter in accordance with its mode of operation for determining the instantaneous sleep state.
  • the time-dependent components 4 and 5 of the device can be omitted.
  • the alarm device 2 may have a bell to trigger audible stimuli, but it may also be equipped with a light activation unit that allows awakening by means of optical stimuli. If the motion sensor 1 is designed in the form of a wristwatch, the use of tactile stimuli, for example electrically generated skin irritation, would also be conceivable.
