Description

  The present invention relates generally to beds. More particularly, the present invention relates to a floating bed system that provides a good sleeping experience for the user.

  Various beddings and beds that provide suitable sleeping comfort have been proposed and are commercially available.

  However, with the conventional bed, lying on the bed and continuing the same posture partially puts on its own weight, so the neck, shoulders, hips, buttocks etc. are compressed, causing joint pain and numbness, extreme It may be an example, but it may cause bedsores. In addition, when lying on the bed, the positional relationship between the head and the pillow changes between lying down and lying down, causing a sense of incongruity each time you turn over and hindering deep sleep. Furthermore, in the conventional bed, since the balance between room temperature and body temperature depends solely on the heat retention power of the bedding, it is not easy to maintain an ideal body temperature at bedtime. In addition, there are many people who can not sleep well due to the high room temperature in summer night, and suffer from physical condition due to lack of sleep or heat stroke in the room.

  As described above, the conventional bedding and beds include various disadvantages, and there are currently no satisfactory items. The present invention has been devised in view of such circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a floating bed system that provides good sleeping comfort.

  The floating bed system according to claim 1 of the present application includes a main body filled with water and a float or a buoyancy material for holding the head on the water surface so that the user can breathe in peace. Thus, the part below the neck of the user's body can be held in water.

  The floating bed system according to claim 2 of the present application further includes a water temperature adjusting device for adjusting and managing the water temperature in the main body according to the system of the first aspect, wherein the body temperature of the user and the water temperature in the main body are detected from the sensor. By detecting and interlocking with the control unit, it has a water temperature adjustment device that can hold the same temperature as body temperature, body temperature plus number of times, body temperature minus number of times, or preset temperature It is characterized by being.

  According to the floating bed system of the present invention, since the same state can be created when the user's body is stably held in water, a comfortable sleeping comfort can be provided. Moreover, by providing the water temperature adjusting device, it is possible to adjust the water temperature such as to match the body temperature, and to provide a comfortable sleeping environment.

  Next, details of a floating bed system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view schematically showing an entire floating bed system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. A floating bed system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, generally indicated by reference numeral 10 in FIG. 1, is equipped with a floating bag or buoyancy material 11, 12 on a main body 21 containing water warmed to an appropriate temperature. The user who has left the head above the surface of the water is floating in the water.

  The floating bed system 10 is equipped with floating bags or buoyancy materials 11 and 12 for the user to breathe as they do in daily life. For this reason, a user's body can be stably hold | maintained in the state which floated in water.

  The main body 21 may be installed on the floor or may be installed in a form in which the floor is cut out. When installing on the floor, a staircase, ladder or lift is required to enter. Also, when exiting from the main body 21, a step or ladder or a lift is required in the main body.

  When the bed user of the main body 21 wants to adjust the buoyancy, the floating bed system 10 can be adjusted by a combination of the float bag or buoyancy material 11 and the float bag or buoyancy material 12. 11 and 12 can be used at a time, or 11 and 12 can be used alone. Moreover, the capacity | capacitances, such as the air quantity of the buoyancy bag or the buoyancy material 11 and 12, and the foaming polystyrene of a buoyancy material, can be enlarged or reduced according to a condition. Moreover, the float bag or buoyancy material 11 becomes a shape wound around the neck over the chin, neck, and back of the head. Also, the float or buoyancy material 12 is shaped like a vest. Open and close at chest area. Of course, take measures so that 11 and 12 do not come off during sleep after wearing. Furthermore, when adjusting the buoyancy, salt is used and the salt concentration is adjusted.

  The main body 21 has a strength that does not deform even when water enters, up to the upper part of the main body. For example, FRP or iron concrete. It is also possible to assemble a frame and form a waterproof and high strength sheet in the frame. In consideration of condensation and heat retention, it is preferable to attach the heat insulating material to the inner surface of the main body, but other methods may be used. Also, by increasing the size of the main body 21, a plurality of people can use it at once.

The floating bed system 10 includes a heater and a cooler 23 for heating and cooling the water in the main body 18 as shown in FIG. 2, and includes a water temperature adjusting device 22 for adjusting the temperature of the water in the main body 18. Water temperature adjusting device 22 detects the temperature t ₁ of the user, obtained from temperature sensor 22a and temperature sensor 22b and the temperature sensing body temperature data obtained from the sensor 22a and temperature sensor 22b for detecting the temperature t ₂ in the main body The difference Δt (= | t ₁ −t ₂ |) of the water temperature data to be obtained is calculated, and when the temperature difference Δt is equal to or larger than a preset value α (Δt> α), an operation signal is sent to the heater and the cooler 23. And a control unit 22c. Moreover, the control unit 22c can control the water temperature in the main body 18 independently from the sensors 22a and 22b. The body temperature detection sensor 22a and the control unit 22c, the water temperature detection sensor 22b, the control unit 22c, the control unit 22c, the heater and the cooler 23 are connected by a cord 22d, a cord 22e, and a cord 22f, respectively. (The body temperature detection sensor 22a is not affected by the water temperature in the main body)

  The water pushed out from the heater and cooler 23 passes through the hose 24a and is discharged into the main body 18 from the outlet 26, and the discharged water returns to the heater and cooler 23 through the suction port 25 and further through the hose 24b. In this method, the temperature is stably maintained by contacting with a heat medium or a refrigerant body. However, if the circulating water flow affects the user, such a circulation system may not be selected. Also, when salt is used to adjust the buoyancy, the salt inside the heater will crystallize and the water circulation will worsen. In this case, the water temperature is adjusted in the form of a heater generally called a throwing heater. Seems to be preferable. But this is not all.

  The operation of the floating bed system 10 configured as described above will be described. Prior to use of the floating bed system 10, water is put into the main body 21 and adjusted to a temperature suitable for the user. Next, the water temperature is set, and the body temperature detection sensor 22a is firmly adhered to the armpit or the like. Next, float bags or buoyancy materials 11 and 12 are attached and water enters.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications are possible within the scope of the invention described in the claims, and these are also included in the scope of the present invention. It goes without saying that it is a thing.
