Description
La présente invention appartient au domaine des dispositifs facilitant des situations de méditation, de sommeil et de relaxation en général, elle concerne un coussin ayant la capacité de vibrer et d’émettre un signal audio pour la personne l'utilisant. Elle s’inscrit dans ce que l’on appelle des dispositifs vibro-acoustiques utilisés en musicothérapie et autres thérapies holistiques.The present invention belongs to the field of devices facilitating situations of meditation, sleep and relaxation in general, it relates to a cushion having the capacity to vibrate and emit an audio signal for the person using it. It is part of what we call vibro-acoustic devices used in music therapy and other holistic therapies.
Divers formats de simples coussins et oreillers cylindriques sont connus de l’art antérieur et fréquemment utilisés, par exemple, lors de séances de yoga où l'utilisateur s'allonge alors sur l'oreiller ou le coussin positionné dans une zone spécifique de son dos et, soit reste immobile, soit déplace son corps dans le sens longitudinal, de sorte que le corps cylindrique tourne sur son axe et masse ainsi, par pression entre le corps et le coussin, la zone du dos ou du cou reposant sur le coussin.Various formats of simple cylindrical cushions and pillows are known from the prior art and frequently used, for example, during yoga sessions where the user then lies down on the pillow or cushion positioned in a specific area of his back and either remains motionless or moves its body in the longitudinal direction, so that the cylindrical body rotates on its axis and thus massages, by pressure between the body and the cushion, the area of the back or neck resting on the cushion.
Par ailleurs, divers dispositifs vibratoires à ondes sonores émises par des transducteurs électroacoustiques sont connus, à usage manuel ou sous forme de matelas, de tapis ou de masques pour le massage facial, mais il n’existe pas de coussins réunissant les caractéristiques structurelles et fonctionnelles ainsi que la polyvalence d'utilisation du coussin objet de la présente invention, lequel participe de façon significative à promouvoir la pratique de la méditation et de la relaxation dans le traitement du stress et d'autres affections.Furthermore, various vibratory devices with sound waves emitted by electroacoustic transducers are known, for manual use or in the form of mattresses, mats or masks for facial massage, but there are no cushions combining the structural and functional characteristics as well as the versatility of use of the cushion which is the subject of the present invention, which significantly contributes to promoting the practice of meditation and relaxation in the treatment of stress and other conditions.
L’objet de la présente invention sera mieux compris et apparaîtra plus clairement dans les figures données à titre illustratif selon un mode de réalisation préféré, parmi lesquelles :The object of the present invention will be better understood and will appear more clearly in the figures given for illustrative purposes according to a preferred embodiment, among which:

Un coussin vibro-acoustique générateur d'états de relaxation et de méditation, objet principal de la présente invention, comprend un dispositif électronique équipé de connexions pour charger une pile interne et transmettre un signal musical à des écouteurs externes, qui excite un générateur de vibration acoustique sur un résonateur rigide recouvert d’un matériau en mousse souple et revêtu d'une housse laminée flexible ; et comprend une forme cylindrique dont les bases sont en forme d'œil, l’empêchant ainsi de rouler sur une surface. Ledit coussin vibro-acoustique comprend une forme allongée dont la hauteur du cylindre est supérieure d’au moins 50 % au plus grand diamètre de ses bases en forme d'œil. Ledit coussin vibro-acoustique présente par ailleurs un rapport entre la longueur du plus grand diamètre de la base en forme d'œil et celle du plus petit diamètre de ladite base en forme d'œil d'une valeur d’au moins 1,2.A vibro-acoustic cushion generating states of relaxation and meditation, the main object of the present invention, comprises an electronic device equipped with connections for charging an internal battery and transmitting a musical signal to external headphones, which excites a vibration generator acoustic on a rigid resonator covered with a soft foam material and covered with a flexible laminated cover; and features a cylindrical shape with eye-shaped bases, preventing it from rolling on a surface. Said vibro-acoustic cushion comprises an elongated shape whose cylinder height is at least 50% greater than the largest diameter of its eye-shaped bases. Said vibro-acoustic cushion also has a ratio between the length of the largest diameter of the eye-shaped base and that of the smallest diameter of said eye-shaped base of a value of at least 1.2 .
De plus, ledit coussin vibro-acoustique comprend un unique générateur de vibration acoustique sur un unique résonateur rigide constitué d'une plaque s'étendant dans le plan formé par les plus grands diamètres des deux bases en forme d'œil dudit cylindre.In addition, said vibro-acoustic cushion comprises a single acoustic vibration generator on a single rigid resonator consisting of a plate extending in the plane formed by the largest diameters of the two eye-shaped bases of said cylinder.
De plus, ledit coussin vibro-acoustique comprend une fenêtre 10, dans ladite housse, qui occulte et permet l'accès aux commandes et connecteurs. Ladite fenêtre est composée, dans un mode préféré de réalisation, d’une portion du même matériau que celui de la housse, qui se superpose aux commandes et connecteurs, cette fenêtre étant située au niveau d’une découpe ménagée dans ladite housse.In addition, said vibro-acoustic cushion includes a window 10, in said cover, which conceals and allows access to the controls and connectors. Said window is composed, in a preferred embodiment, of a portion of the same material as that of the cover, which is superimposed on the controls and connectors, this window being located at the level of a cutout made in said cover.
Ainsi, la présente invention concerne un coussin vibro-acoustique générateur d'états de relaxation et de méditation, comprenant un dispositif électronique, des connexions pour charger une pile interne ; des commandes comprenant un bouton de mise en marche, des connexions pour transmettre un signal musical à des écouteurs externes et des voyants à LED, un générateur de vibration acoustique ; un résonateur rigide ; un matériau en mousse souple et une housse laminée flexible ; ledit coussin ayant la forme d’un cylindre et les bases génératrices dudit cylindre étant en forme d'œil.Thus, the present invention relates to a vibro-acoustic cushion generating states of relaxation and meditation, comprising an electronic device, connections for charging an internal battery; controls including a power button, connections for transmitting a music signal to external headphones and LED indicators, an acoustic vibration generator; a rigid resonator; soft foam material and flexible laminated cover; said cushion having the shape of a cylinder and the generating bases of said cylinder being in the shape of an eye.
Le coussin vibro-acoustique objet de la présente invention a été développé afin d’apporter une solution efficace aux limites d'utilisation des oreillers et/ou coussins conventionnels, il réunit des avantages fonctionnels et des performances remarquables qui ressortiront de la description réalisée en référence aux figures qui le représentent conformément à un mode de réalisation préféré et à son utilisation.The vibro-acoustic cushion which is the subject of the present invention was developed in order to provide an effective solution to the limitations of use of conventional pillows and/or cushions, it combines functional advantages and remarkable performances which will emerge from the description made in reference to the figures which represent it in accordance with a preferred embodiment and its use.
L’objet de la présente invention consiste donc à fournir un coussin vibro-acoustique utilisant des ondes sonores, développé en particulier pour transmettre une douce vibration conjointement à de la musique, au moyen d’un écouteur, pour la relaxation et la méditation de l’utilisateur ou du patient à traiter, les ondes sonores étant émises par des transducteurs électroacoustiques connectés à des dispositifs électroniques programmables qui génèrent, traitent et permettent de contrôler des signaux à basse fréquence réglables. Le coussin a pour principale caractéristique fonctionnelle la forme d’un cylindre dont les bases ne sont pas circulaires mais en forme d'œil, comme illustré dans les figures. Cette base en forme d’œil du cylindre garantit que le coussin ne roule pas et reste fixe en position d'utilisation. Cette nouvelle forme pour un coussin vibro-acoustique permet au coussin de l'invention de générer des vibrations contre le corps de l'utilisateur ou du patient tout en l’empêchant de rouler involontairement y compris lorsque la personne a atteint l’état souhaité. En particulier, la forme fonctionnelle de la présente invention prend tout son sens lorsqu’elle est utilisée en position verticale entre la colonne de l'utilisateur ou du patient et le dossier d'une chaise. Dans cette position, le cylindre dont les bases sont en forme d'œil reste placé entre les omoplates, en appui contre le dos de la personne et le dossier de la chaise ou du fauteuil. Une sensation de sécurité est ainsi transmise puisque le coussin vibro-acoustique de l'invention ne glisse ni ne roule, permettant le transfert total de sa vibration à la colonne vertébrale de la personne. La forme cylindrique à partir de la génératrice en forme d'œil conduit à ce que les omoplates restent libres et dans une position où, au lieu d’être courbées vers l’avant, elles restent légèrement vers l’arrière et vers le bas, permettant au sternum de se positionner légèrement vers l’avant et vers le haut. Il s’agit d’une position idéale pour la méditation. La forme fonctionnelle de la présente invention joue un rôle sur la position du corps car elle l’aide à bien se placer pour méditer lorsque l’utilisateur est assis sur une chaise.The object of the present invention therefore consists of providing a vibro-acoustic cushion using sound waves, developed in particular to transmit a gentle vibration together with music, by means of an earphone, for relaxation and meditation of the user or patient to be treated, the sound waves being emitted by electroacoustic transducers connected to programmable electronic devices which generate, process and allow control of adjustable low frequency signals. The main functional characteristic of the cushion is the shape of a cylinder whose bases are not circular but eye-shaped, as illustrated in the figures. This eye-shaped base of the cylinder ensures that the cushion does not roll and remains fixed in the position of use. This new shape for a vibro-acoustic cushion allows the cushion of the invention to generate vibrations against the body of the user or patient while preventing it from rolling involuntarily, including when the person has reached the desired state. In particular, the functional form of the present invention takes on its full meaning when used in a vertical position between the column of the user or patient and the back of a chair. In this position, the cylinder whose bases are eye-shaped remains placed between the shoulder blades, resting against the person's back and the back of the chair or armchair. A feeling of security is thus transmitted since the vibro-acoustic cushion of the invention neither slides nor rolls, allowing the total transfer of its vibration to the person's spine. The cylindrical shape from the eye-shaped generator leads to the shoulder blades remaining free and in a position where, instead of being curved forward, they remain slightly backward and downward, allowing the sternum to position itself slightly forward and upward. This is an ideal position for meditation. The functional form of the present invention plays a role on the position of the body because it helps the user to be properly positioned for meditation when the user is seated in a chair.
Les transducteurs électroacoustiques sont disposés dans l’axe central du coussin de l'invention, de préférence un seul transducteur. Le corps principal est en matériau polymérique spongieux et, dans sa version préférée, il est composé de deux parties symétriques qui sont unies entre elles par thermofusion de leurs bords périphériques situés en vis-à-vis ou par collage, ou maintenues par ladite housse.The electroacoustic transducers are arranged in the central axis of the cushion of the invention, preferably a single transducer. The main body is made of spongy polymeric material and, in its preferred version, it is composed of two symmetrical parts which are joined together by heat fusion of their peripheral edges located opposite or by gluing, or held by said cover.
Le coussin vibro-acoustique de la présente invention est un dispositif de son vibro-acoustique dans un coussin, l'utilisateur pouvant s’asseoir dessus, l’enlacer et y installer une partie de son corps afin d’expérimenter la vibration du son et de la musique au niveau de la zone reposant sur le coussin. Il dispose d’une entrée écouteurs afin que l'utilisateur puisse écouter de la musique tout en ressentant dans son corps les vibrations. Il est formé d’une partie souple, de préférence en mousse, d’un transducteur bass shaker monté sur une plaque rigide et d’un compartiment en plastique comprenant le circuit électronique et la batterie.The vibro-acoustic cushion of the present invention is a vibro-acoustic sound device in a cushion, the user being able to sit on it, embrace it and install part of his body there in order to experience the vibration of the sound and music to the area resting on the cushion. It has a headphone input so that the user can listen to music while feeling the vibrations in their body. It is made up of a flexible part, preferably made of foam, a bass shaker transducer mounted on a rigid plate and a plastic compartment including the electronic circuit and the battery.
Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, il comporte un transducteur basse fréquence du type bass shaker d’entre 8 et 16 ohms monté sur une plaque rigide à l’intérieur d’un coussin en mousse. Le transducteur est connecté à un circuit électronique monté dans un compartiment en plastique à l'intérieur même du coussin. Le circuit électronique reçoit un signal Bluetooth, le convertit en audio analogique, l’amplifie et le renvoie au transducteur basse fréquence, lequel produit la vibration dans le coussin. La vibration émise par le transducteur va se propager de façon homogène au travers de ladite plaque rigide. Cette plaque a pour fonction de mieux répartir la vibration dans chaque section du coussin et, bien entendu, d’empêcher le transducteur de bouger à l'intérieur. Il possède également une prise écouteurs afin d’écouter de la musique de relaxation lors de son utilisation. Il est alimenté, dans un mode de réalisation préféré, par une batterie lithium-ion rechargeable. Il dispose d’un port USB-B ou similaire, servant à recharger la batterie du dispositif. Dans sa version préférée, il comporte deux voyants lumineux (voyant de mise en marche et voyant de charge complète de la batterie) ainsi qu’un bouton de mise en marche monté sur un clavier.In a preferred embodiment, it comprises a low frequency transducer of the bass shaker type of between 8 and 16 ohms mounted on a rigid plate inside a foam cushion. The transducer is connected to an electronic circuit mounted in a plastic compartment inside the cushion itself. The electronic circuit receives a Bluetooth signal, converts it to analog audio, amplifies it and sends it back to the low-frequency transducer, which produces the vibration in the cushion. The vibration emitted by the transducer will propagate homogeneously through said rigid plate. This plate has the function of better distributing the vibration in each section of the cushion and, of course, of preventing the transducer from moving inside. It also has a headphone jack so you can listen to relaxation music while using it. It is powered, in a preferred embodiment, by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. It has a USB-B or similar port, used to recharge the device's battery. In its preferred version, it has two indicator lights (power indicator and battery full charge indicator) as well as a power button mounted on a keypad.

Dans la présente invention, la liberté a été prise d’appeler cylindre la surface longitudinale issue de l’extension conformationnelle des figures en forme d'œil constituant la base du coussin de la présente invention et la génératrice dudit « cylindre », comme illustré dans les figures.In the present invention, the liberty has been taken to call cylinder the longitudinal surface resulting from the conformational extension of the eye-shaped figures constituting the base of the cushion of the present invention and the generator of said “cylinder”, as illustrated in the figures.
Le coussin vibro-acoustique de l'invention peut être placé dans le dos, afin de recevoir les vibrations tout en écoutant de la musique. Les vibrations aident à entrer dans des états régis par le système nerveux parasympathique et aident ainsi le méditant inexpérimenté à entrer en état méditatif.The vibro-acoustic cushion of the invention can be placed on the back, in order to receive the vibrations while listening to music. The vibrations help one enter states governed by the parasympathetic nervous system and thus help the inexperienced meditator enter a meditative state.
Le coussin vibro-acoustique de la présente invention peut être placé dans le dos, l'utilisateur peut également s’asseoir dessus en position de méditation (jambes croisées) et recevoir les vibrations se propageant depuis les ischions jusqu’aux os et aux tissus corporels. Il existe d’autres formes possibles d'utilisation : allongé sur le dos, jambes fléchies, le coussin exerçant une pression sur le sacrum et soulageant, grâce à la vibration, les douleurs lombaires, ou dans la même position du corps, jambes tendues, avec le coussin au-dessous des genoux.
The vibro-acoustic cushion of the present invention can be placed on the back, the user can also sit on it in a meditation position (cross-legged) and receive the vibrations propagating from the sit bones to the bones and body tissues . There are other possible forms of use: lying on your back, legs bent, the cushion exerting pressure on the sacrum and relieving, thanks to vibration, lower back pain, or in the same body position, legs stretched, with the cushion below the knees.
