The present invention relates to an aid for stabilizing emotion for application to an infant in an incubator that provides a control environment for a sick newborn baby, such as premature infants, and more specifically to construct a cushion body shaped to the female chest However, the inside is equipped with a structure to generate vibrations similar to the mother's heartbeat and random sounds similar to the heartbeat sound, so that the infant can feel the mother's heart vibration and sound with the skin, so that the mother's arms are not in the absence of the mother. In addition to providing comfort and emotional stability like being held in the inside, a separate attachment means is provided on the outside of the cushioning body so that the cushioning body can be selectively detached from inside the incubator, thereby providing convenience for use. It is to be done.

Infants generally incubators are usually used premature infants or newborns with delayed physical or emotional development, and emotional anxiety is more severe than normal children require more intensive care.

On the other hand, infants do not have as much psychological stability and comfort as their mothers, but for the protection of infants who are less immune than normal children, it is impossible for moms to contact infants except strict hygiene management and scheduled visit times. There was a problem that the lack of time to do so caused emotional anxiety for the infant in the incubator.

The present invention has been devised to solve the above problems,

The purpose of the present invention is to incubate the infant in the incubator without the mother, so that the mother feels the heartbeat and heart beating movements as if it is held in the mother's arms, giving comfort and emotional stability. In providing infant emotional support,

An object of the present invention as described above constitutes a cushioning body having a shape corresponding to the female chest, but any structure for generating a random sound similar to the heartbeat sound and vibration similar to the mother's heartbeat through the power supply therein.

Each of the operation guide display member 90 is configured to be attached to the surface of the cushioning body 10, the push button 61 is located.

<Not shown in the drawing>

(B) shows an infant.

If described in detail the operation of the subject innovation is configured as follows.

The cushion body 10 of the present invention is filled with a cushioning material such as cotton in order to wrap and support each operating member and to improve the feel when the infants contact.

In addition, since the solenoid 50 is fixedly installed on the expansion blocking plate 31 of the vibration generating hole 30 through the bracket 52, the vibration generating hole 30 and the solenoid 50 are not individually flown. The launcher 51 is able to strike the pulsation sound generating piece 40 at a constant and constant position at all times, thereby providing precision and accuracy in operation.

In addition, since the push button 61 of the operation switch 60 is fixed to the inner surface of the cushioning body 10 through the fixing member 62, the operation switch 60 flows during the user's pressing operation so that the switch operates properly. It can be prevented that it does not work.

The present invention is applied to the infant (B) in the incubator (I) as shown in Figures 3 to 4 in Figure 3 is placed on the side of the infant (B) without attaching the cushioning body 10 to the incubator (I) separately 4 is an example of a case in which it is used to attach to an appropriate portion of the inner surface of the incubator (I) through an attachment means (90), which may be composed of, for example, a velcro fastener, and may be appropriately selected according to conditions of use. Using the attachment means 90 as shown in Figure 4 to separate the cushion body 10 from the infant does not interfere with the movement of the infant.

Referring to the action for generating the heartbeat sound and the movement of the heartbeat using the present invention in detail.

As shown in FIG. 2, when the operation guide display member 90 is attached to the surface of the cushioning body 10 to guide the position of the operation switch 60, the operation switch 60 is turned “on” to generate power. The power of the 20 is simultaneously applied to the solenoid 50 and the control unit 70 to operate the plunger 51 of the solenoid 50 with a program set in the control unit 70 to, for example, the average heart rate of the human body. The end of the plunger 51 hits the pulsation sound generating piece 40 attached to the vibration generating port 30 by the number of times falling within the range or the actual heart rate of the infant's mother. On the part 40, a hitting sound similar to the beat of the heart is generated.

On the other hand, the material of the pulsation sound generating piece 40 is not limited to a specific material, but it is durable and can be applied to a metal or ceramic material of a suitable thickness having a long service life and a good sounding effect.

On the other hand, when the plunger 51 strikes the pulsating sound generating piece 40, a sound similar to the pulsing sound is generated by the impact, but at the same time, the plunger 51 strikes the pulsing sound in the virtual line of FIG. As the pulsating sound generating piece 40 shocked as described above is pushed into the vibration generating hole 30 to deform the shape of the vibrating sound generating device 30, the pulsating sound generating device 40 is vibrated as much as the volume of the pulsating sound generating piece 40 contracted. The other part of the 30 is bulging out and when the plunger 51 is retracted, the pulsating sound generating piece 40 is pushed back to its original position by the internal pressure of the vibration generating port 30 and the expanded portion is contracted. By vibrating the cushioning body 10 through the repetitive intermittent expansion and contraction of the vibration generating port 30, the movement of the pulsation is expressed.

That is, the present invention generates the heartbeat sound by the plunger 51 of the solenoid 50 hitting the pulsation sound generating piece 40 and the vibration generating hole by the pulsating sound generating piece 40 which is flowed by the impact. Through the deformation of the form (30), the movement of the heart is expressed.

In the above, an embodiment of the present invention has been described, but modifications and variations within the scope without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention by those of ordinary skill in the art belong to the scope of the present invention Of course.

According to the present invention configured as described above, the shape of the cushioning body is formed similar to the mother's chest, so that it does not give a sense of rejection to the infant and can be installed in the incubator in contact with the infant through the attachment means for convenience of handling. It is possible to continuously give the infant the effect similar to the rhythm of the heartbeat and the rhythm of the heart, so that the infant in the incubator can be comfortably and emotionally secured in the mother's arms even without the mother. It will have the effect.
