Abstract

The present invention relates to a snoring prevention pillow. When the microphone built in the mobile device detects the snoring, it uses a Bluetooth function of the mobile device to send a signal to the driving part inside the pillow to automatically adjust the height of the pillow to prevent snoring.

Description

No snoring medical pillow with snoring and sleep apnea interlocking with mobile applications

The present invention relates to a snoring prevention pillow. When a microphone built in a mobile device senses a snoring, a mobile device transmits a signal to a driving part of the pillow by a Bluetooth function to automatically adjust the height of the pillow, The invention relates to a technique for preventing the occurrence of a disease.

There are many ways to treat snoring. Snoring is a form of life-threatening disorder, and the majority of snoring patients are accompanied by sleep apnea. Patients with sleep apnea have elevated blood pressure, elevated glucose levels, and release of stress hormones. This leads to complications such as hypertension, heart attack, stroke, and diabetes.

Previously, snoring was used to prevent snoring, and devices such as a device for breathing smoothly, a snoring prevention pillow, and devices for spraying and breathing were used. However, these alleviate the snoring caused by false nose breathing, but the effect seems to be temporary and insignificant. Therefore, a new type of snoring prevention product is needed, not just a product that alleviates only the nasal breathing.

In the case of a snoring prevention pillow, it is disclosed in Patent Application No. 10-2012-0015609 (design name: snoring prevention pillow). It is good to use the eccentric shaft to adjust the height of the pillow by sensing the snoring signal, but the sound sensor may not catch snoring properly in the pillow. And the display is attached to the side of the pillow, so that it can not be operated while viewing the display while lying down. In order to prevent snoring, it is necessary to accurately detect the sound of snoring and to effectively adjust the height of the pillow accordingly.

User's snoring treatment.

The height of the driving part increases stepwise according to the snoring acoustic signal. When the snoring continues, the height of the driving part further increases. When the snoring stops, the height descends. With this feedback system, high snoring treatment effects can be seen.

As described above, when the mobile device senses the snoring sound, the driving part inside the pillow operates to lift the cervical vertebra of the user, thereby expanding the throat to stop the snoring. You can also use a mobile device to lay down and manually adjust the sensitivity of the microphone in the mobile device and the height of the Scissor Lift. If the snoring is not detected, the height of the pillow will be lowered by the feedback system, which minimizes the discomfort of the sleeping due to the height of the pillow. With the rechargeable battery and charger, So that it can be convenient for the user.

(Fig. 4): Operation Algorithm

In the present invention, the snoring prevention pillow and the mobile device are linked. Conventional snoring prevention pillow has an inconvenience in operation because the operating device is attached to the pillow, the sensitivity of the product can not be controlled, and there is a limitation in utilization.

FIG. 1 shows a display of a mobile application in which a user can arbitrarily adjust sensitivity of a product, a current height of a pillow, and height can be set. This allows the user to lay on the pillow and easily set the sensitivity and height of the product.

The invented apparatus has a shape as shown in Fig. Use the electric motor (1) to adjust the height of the threaded (2) Scissor Lift (3). Referring to FIG. 3, the mobile device and the controller in the pillow are connected using Bluetooth communication. When the microphone of the mobile device senses snoring, the application sends a signal to the control of the pillow to activate the motor to raise the height of the Scissor Lift.

As shown in FIG. 4, each time the snore is detected, the height is raised by one step. If a snore is detected even at the final height, it is judged that the posture of the sleeping person is bad and returned to the initial height. When snoring is not detected for a few minutes, the height is lowered step by step and finally returned to the original height.
