Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) The invention provides a vibration unit that, when attached to the top of the bed and supplies low-frequency power to the vibration unit, generates moderate vibrations to the user whose body is placed on top of the vibration unit. This relates to the vibrating mat.

(Prior Art) Music is normally enjoyed audibly through speakers or headphones. In this case, if the volume of the speakers is set high enough, the deep bass region of the acoustic components will be transmitted to the body, creating a situation similar to listening to a live performance, but please take into consideration the possibility of disturbing others. The reality is that it is impossible to listen to music at such a volume. With headphones, no matter how high you turn up the volume, you can't really experience it.

To compensate for this, we used a filter to select low-frequency signals of, for example, 150 Hz or less from the low-frequency signals of the amplifier, amplified them, and then generated vibrations using the same principle as the speaker. In addition to vibration units, devices have been devised that vibrate parts of human body objects, such as chairs, to which vibration units are attached, and have already been put into practical use. If a person who listens to music places his or her body on this chair or the like, he or she can feel the deep bass even if the volume of the speaker in front of him is low, and the same effect can be obtained with headphones.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) It is no exaggeration to say that the technology has been perfected when the object on which the human body is placed, such as a chair, as described above, but when the object on which the human body is placed is a bed, The reality is that the technology is not yet fully developed.
In other words, in a bed, the pinerest deforms due to the weight of the user lying on it, and the pinerest has many springs and wires that bind it inside to provide a good sleeping comfort, and the pinerest has many springs and wires that bind the springs and vibrations. There are problems such as not being able to place units in appropriate locations. In addition, if the vibration unit is housed in a pinerest, the pinetress for this purpose will have special specifications compared to a general pinetress, so people who currently use a general pinetress may want to use this pinetress, which is excellent for listening to music. When I tried to use it, I had a problem where I had to purchase a new one. The present invention was developed in view of this point.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention, as a means to solve the above problems, provides a hole in a core material having a hardness that does not deform significantly when weight is applied to the hole. A vibrating unit that generates vibrations using frequency power is embedded, and the core material is covered with an outer skin that is quilted around a cushion material and has tongues at both ends that wrap around the mattress of the bed.

(Function) The vibrating mat of the present invention configured as described above has the following features:
Place this on the top of the pinerest of the bed, wrap the tongues at both ends under the pinetress, tie this part with string provided as necessary, attach it to the pinetress, and send the vibration unit to the By supplying a range signal, you can experience moderate vibration when listening to music through speakers installed near the bed.
This will have a great effect on relieving mental stress. Furthermore, the pine surge effect can be obtained by supplying a low frequency signal other than music, such as a 50 to 60 hertz signal from a commercial power supply, or a signal of any frequency obtained from a low frequency oscillator.

(Embodiment) Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings. In Fig. 1, 1 is a vibrating mat according to the present invention, and the upper surface of the core material 2 (see Fig. 2) is used as a cushion material. The urethane 3 is wrapped and covered with a quilted skin 4. This vibrating mat 1 is adapted to the dimensions of the bed's pinerest, and has tongues 5 at both ends of the skin 4 for wrapping around both ends (upper and lower ends) of the pinetress (not shown).
is provided. Reference numeral 6 denotes a string, which is attached to the tongue portion 5 and is used for binding at the lower part of the pinerest.

The core material 2 preferably has a hardness that does not deform significantly when weight is applied to it, and in this embodiment, chip urethane, which is often used for chair core materials, is used. The thickness of the core material 2 is preferably about 10 mm to 20 mm, and the hole 7 provided in a part of the core material 2 is preferably about 10 mm to 20 mm.
As shown in FIG. 2, a vibration unit 8 designed to be thin is fitted and attached. The attachment is carried out by gluing at the flange 8a of the vibration unit 8.

The vibration unit 8 operates on the same principle as a speaker, that is, by the magnetic interference between a magnet and a coil receiving a low frequency current, it generates vibrations in accordance with the frequency of the current. This vibrating unit 8 is manufactured with care taken to emit as little noise as possible. As for the location where the vibration unit 8 is installed, it is best not to install it in the area under the shoulders of the bed user when he or she is lying down, as the pillow will keep the vibration unit 8 away from the body (if it is installed in this area, it will make noise). It is also best to avoid the lower part of the stomach as it may cause discomfort. When these considerations are taken into account, the optimum position for a single bed is shown in FIG. For double beds, two sets of these are placed side by side. In the case of the arrangement shown in Fig. 3, the eight vibration units 8 are connected in series and parallel as shown in Fig. 4, and are matched to a total impedance of 4 ohms, to which a low frequency power of about 20 watts is applied. I'm starting to accept it. It is best to take out the connection cord 9 from around the bottom of the pillow.

This vibrating mat thus constructed is used by being mounted on a mattress of a bed by the method described above. Then, the vibration unit 8 is separated from an appropriate stereo device, etc., and amplified and applied a low frequency signal, or the power for driving the vibration is obtained from a commercial power source, and this is synchronized with the low frequency signal of the audio signal. Use it so that it vibrates. This allows the user to experience vibrations that match the sound from the speakers provided near the bed. Adjust the strength of the vibration to your liking by adjusting the volume. And if you supply vibrations other than music, such as a 50 to 60 hertz signal as mentioned above, or a signal with a frequency close to this, you can also get the pine surge effect.

(Effects of the Invention) The present invention is configured as described above, and it is possible to obtain a bodily sensation of vibration in the bed, which was previously impossible to experience. Since it is a mat, it can be removed from the bed's mattress when it is not needed, and it has the advantage of being able to be installed later on to an existing bed.
