Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a principle configuration diagram of a blowing unit of a sleeping apparatus, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the apparatus. Here, 6 is a mat made of a cylindrical cushion material 7 and a non-breathable cloth 8 around the periphery.
Is sewn on. The cushion material 7 has grooves 9 and 10 formed on the front surface and the back surface thereof, respectively, and the groove portion 10 on the back surface is connected to the cavity 11 inside the cloth 8 in the peripheral portion. The surface groove 9 has a large number of air outlets 12 communicating with the cavity 11.
13 is a blower unit having a blower 14 and a calculation means 15 for calculating the blower pattern of the blower 14 and a control means 16, and 17 connected to the cavity 11 and the connection port 20 via the duct 19 is a humidity sensor, The indoor humidity around the blower unit is detected. 18 is an air suction port.

In the above configuration, if the blower 14 is operated, the air suction port 18
The room air sucked in is placed in the cavity 11 through the duct 19 and is blown to the surface of the mat 6 from the air outlets 12 provided in the grooves 9 and 10.

At this time, the blowing amount Q of the blower 14 is controlled as follows. First, the indoor humidity Ha detected by the humidity sensor 17 is input to the calculating means 15, and the first calculating portion 15a calculates the period T and the amplitude D of the periodic function F shown in the equation (1) based on the relationship shown in FIG. Is calculated. In the formula (1), c is a constant 2π,
t is time.

That is, since the cycle T is shorter and the amplitude D is larger as the indoor humidity is higher, even if the indoor humidity is high, the user is not accustomed to the blown airflow and the cooling effect is maintained. When the indoor humidity is low, the cycle T is large and the amplitude D is small, so that the user can sleep comfortably without worrying about being too cold. Further, since the blower 14 is controlled so as to gradually increase the amount of air blow and gradually decrease the amount of air blow due to the nature of the function, it does not cause a cold sensation to the user at the time of starting and cause discomfort.

In the above embodiment, the humidity sensor detects the indoor humidity Ha and determines the cycle T and the amplitude D of the periodic function F. However, the humidity sensor is arranged on the mat to detect the humidity in the bed or is used. The same effect can be obtained by arranging it in the person's nightwear to detect the humidity in the vicinity of the skin surface and determine the period T and the amplitude D of the periodic function F.
