Instruction manual Name: Smart pillow for eliminating sleep snoring

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of sleep monitoring, and in particular to a smart pillow for eliminating sleep snoring.

Background technique

[0002] It is well known that the quality of sleep is related to the work of the human brain and nerves, directly affecting the individual's mental state, and even the quality of life. Therefore, sleep is of great significance to the health of the human body. However, modern people suffer from various factors such as environmental pollution, work stress, and irregular work and rest. It is very common to have a decline in sleep quality.

[0003] For example, common snoring, commonly known as snoring, is a phenomenon that is extremely common during sleep. In particular, some of the more serious snoring phenomena have a great impact on sleep. Because severe snoring can cause apnea, resulting in hypoxia, the quality of sleep is significantly reduced. In addition, severely snoring people often suffer from obesity, high blood pressure or heart disease. If such people have apnea during sleep, they may easily cause abnormal blood pressure or heart rate. In the most serious cases, they may even die, showing great harm. In view of the above situation, some smart products exist at this stage, which can monitor the user's sleep state during the user's sleep, so that the user can understand his or her sleep situation. For example, the current emerging smart bracelet or similar device has the function of monitoring the user's sleep, and then combined with the smart terminal, the user can be very intuitive to learn the relevant data during the nightly sleep. However, the existing smart device has the drawback that although it has the function of letting the user understand his or her sleep condition, it cannot actually optimize and improve the user's sleep quality, and can not effectively prevent the apnea caused by snoring. Therefore, the practical value is still relatively low.

The miniature air pump 13 is small in size and light in weight, and is capable of inflating and deflation of the concave-convex airbag 14 to change the height and inclination of the smart pillow 100.

[0027] The sound collector 11 is configured to collect a snore sound signal generated by a user during a sleep process, and send a snore sound signal to the microcontroller 12. The sound collector 11 may be a device such as a microphone or a sound sensor capable of collecting a snore sound signal during a user's sleep, and the snore sound signal is essentially a sound wave of a user's snore.

[0028] The microcontroller 12 is configured to generate a stoppage control command according to the user's snore sound signal, and control the micro air pump 13 to inflate or deflate the concave and convex airbag 14 by the stoppage control command to change the smart pillow 1 The height and inclination of 00, thereby adjusting the user's head sleep position to eliminate the user's degree of snoring. In this embodiment, when the concave-convex airbag 14 is inflated, the height and inclination of the smart pillow 100 may be increased; when the concave-convex airbag 14 is deflated, the height and inclination of the smart pillow 100 may be reduced. Degree, so as to achieve the effect of assisting the user to adjust the head sleeping position to eliminate the degree of user snoring and improve the user's sleep quality. In general, mild snoring is not enough to cause physical harm (such as apnea or myocardial infarction), but if you do not adjust or eliminate the degree of snoring, it is likely to turn into heavy hits. Hey. Therefore, for the feature of mild snoring, by changing the height and tilt angle of the smart pillow 100, the posture of the user's head can be adjusted, thereby reducing or eliminating the degree of snoring of the user, so as to prevent the user from shifting from mild snoring to severe snoring, preventing the user from being prevented. Accidental illness, such as apnea or myocardial infarction

[0029] The micro battery 15 is used for providing the working power supply to the sleep snoring elimination device 10.

When the amount of power of the microbattery 15 is used up, the user can charge the microbattery 15 through the charging port, thereby extending the life cycle of the sleep snoring removing device 10.

[0030] In the embodiment, the sleep snoring elimination device 10 further includes a communication port 4 connected to the microcontroller 12, and the heart rate sensor 5 is connected to the micro control through the communication port 4. On the device 12. The heart rate sensor 5 is disposed in the user's pajamas pocket and in close proximity to the user's chest position for sensing the user's heart rate data and transmitting the user's heart rate data to the microcontroller 12 via the communication port 4.

[0031] In this embodiment, the communication port 5 is a communication interface supporting a Bluetooth, WiFi, GSM, GPRS, 3G or 4G wireless transmission network, and is used for sending the user's sleep information and heart rate data to the monitoring. The mobile communication terminal (such as the mobile phone of the guardian or doctor) or the medical monitoring platform of the medical monitoring center, for the guardian or the doctor to dynamically understand the user's sleep condition.

[0032] Under normal circumstances, the normal heart rate of an adult is 60 to 100 beats / minute, and the ideal heart rate should be 55 to 70 beats / minute.

If the heart rate exceeds 160 beats/min or less than 40 beats/min, the guardian can judge whether the user's heart rate is normal or not based on the user's heart rate data. When the user's heart rate is abnormal, it indicates that the user may have a temporary pause in breathing or a dangerous condition such as a heart attack (such as a myocardial infarction). In this case, the guardian should look after the user who is snoring, thereby preventing accidental diarrhea or myocardial infarction.
