The bottom portion 10 may be embodied in stone, or may be embodied in a fluffy matrix.

In addition, the elderly have poor circulation of blood flow. To this end, according to the present invention achieves a distinctive effect by giving a left and right temperature difference of at least 10 degrees less than 20 degrees. In other words, even in the actual experiment, when the temperature of the whole bed is increased, the blood pressure of the elderly increases or feels frustrated.However, if the temperature on the left and right sides of the bed is different from each other, even if the temperature of either side is slightly higher, the blood pressure does not appear and is less frustrating. It turned out, and by adjusting the body was found to control. That is, as shown in Fig. 2, the bottom portion 10 is divided into two, and the first heater 11a and the second heater 11b are provided in each partitioned portion. The first heater 11a and the second heater 11b are controlled to have a temperature difference of at least 10 degrees and less than 20 degrees. In this case, it is preferable that the first and second heaters 11a and 11b are planar heating elements that have less fear of overheating and have the same temperature distribution.

On the other hand, the temperature for sleeping comfortably differs from winter and summer. In winter, when sleeping, the temperature should be a little over 35 ℃, warmed up to 28 ℃ after sleeping, and warmed up to 32 ℃ when waking up. In addition, in summer, the temperature of sleep should be cool to about 25 ℃, after sleeping to be warm to about 28 ℃, when waking up should be comfortable to about 25 ℃. At these temperature conditions, the most desirable sleep state can be maintained. The controller 80 controls the first and second heaters 11a and 11b to meet the above temperature conditions.

When the bottom portion 10 is implemented with the matrix M, as shown in FIG. 3, the matrix M is provided with a vibrator 15 that causes vibration. The vibrator 15 is adopted when the bottom is a matrix, and is installed at a part corresponding to the shoulder of the sleeping person, a part corresponding to the waist, and a part corresponding to the calf, and vibrates to a person lying down by generating vibration. Is applied. Such a vibrating device may be implemented in various ways, but in the present embodiment, the vibration rod 15a installed inside the matrix M and the vibration generating unit 15b vibrating the vibration rod 15a periodically or aperiodically. Can be implemented. Here, the vibration generating unit 15b has a motor (not shown) and various gears (not shown) are organically connected therein to raise and lower the vibration bar 15a. Since the vibrating rod and the vibration generating unit are used in a conventional massager, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

When humans grow up in the womb, they have lived with their mother's heart, so they naturally feel comfortable with their heart. To make this possible, drive a vibrator on the hip or shoulder. In addition, according to the taste of the sleeper, a specific vibration can be generated for a specific set time or before going to sleep, and further, a strong vibration can be generated for the massage.

The bed body 20 is provided with the humidity control unit 30, the fragrance generating unit 40, the air purifying unit 50, the deep sleep wave generator 60, the controller 80.

Humidity control unit 30 can be implemented in various types, such as making water vapor by heating water, or making water vapor using an ultrasonic element. The main reason why a sleeper usually catches a cold is a mismatch between temperature and humidity. However, by appropriately controlling the first and second heaters 11a and 11b and the humidity control unit 30, desirable temperature and humidity conditions can be matched. The most pleasant humidity condition at bedtime is about 40 to 60% RH.

According to the present invention, the humidity control unit 30 controls to raise the humidity strongly so that the ambient humidity is controlled to be slightly humid at about 60 to 75% during the initial 30 minutes of sleep in order to achieve an early relaxation action of the elderly, and after 30 minutes The control is to reduce the humidity to gradually reach 50%. It is faster for older people to reach early sleep in slightly humid conditions, with a dry body and weak respiratory organs compared to healthy young people.

Next, when the humidity is at least 60% or more, the fragrance generating unit 40 is controlled to generate fragrance. The fragrance generating unit 40 generates a fragrance that induces a good night's sleep of the user. For example, the fragrance generating unit 40 generates a weakness (herb) when inducing sleep or during sleep. On the other hand, in order to wake up the old man occurs a whitton smell to clear the mind and body. The fragrance generating unit 40 may be embodied in a structure that embeds a natural hub, or may be embodied in a structure that contains a fragrance generating material that generates chemical fragrance, and such a structure is well known and thus, further description thereof will be omitted.

The air purifying unit 50 is provided with a hepa filter or the like to remove fine dust particles of 0.1 μm or less in the surrounding air. In addition, the air purifying unit 50 may be integrated with an anion generating unit for generating negative ions, an oxygen generating unit for generating oxygen, and further, an acidity measuring sensor for measuring the acidity of air, an oxygen amount measuring sensor for measuring the amount of oxygen, For example, gas sensors for measuring harmful gases or flammable gases may be installed. The signal obtained by these sensors is used as a signal for appropriately controlling the air purifier 50.

Next, the sound wave generator 60 generates a sound or frequency for inducing a good night's sleep after about 20 minutes to 40 minutes after the smell is generated, and this sound or frequency is generated through the speaker 65. After 20 minutes of incense, more than 50% of the elderly did not enter the state of sleep, and the effect of sleep sound was insufficient. Sleep was not working properly. In addition, the deep sleep wave generator 60 may generate an appropriate sound or frequency by dividing into sleep, wake up, and wake up, and may perform an alarm function to forcibly wake up the sleep. Sound may include quiet music or natural sounds, and may include alpha waves and gamma waves to induce a good night's sleep or wake up.

The lighting unit 70 is installed at the top of the head guard 25 coupled to the end of the bed body 20. The lighting unit 70 is turned on when reading a book or forcibly waking up a sleep. Two such lighting unit 70 is preferably installed so that the couple can use each.

In addition to the above description, an emergency bell or emergency telephone for a patient or an elderly person who is inconvenient to move may be installed, or an excretion apparatus, a collection box for spitting or spitting, or a drinking water supply device for supplying drinking water may be installed. There will be.

All of the above components are all controlled by the controller 80. The controller can control each configuration according to a fixed schedule, time or condition, or the sleeper can manually control each configuration.

Although the present invention has been described with reference to one embodiment shown in the drawings, this is merely exemplary, and it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications and equivalent other embodiments are possible.
