Problems solved by technology

[0014] The anti-snoring methods of the current anti-snoring pillows are mostly achieved by interfering with sleep. Most of them use the curved surface that fits the neck to ensure the smooth airway in the supine sleeping position to prevent snoring in the supine sleeping position, prevent snoring in the supine sleeping position, and drive the vibrator. Vibration interferes with sleep to prevent snoring, drives sliders to interfere with sleep and change the sleeping position on the back and side, interferes with sleep to prevent snoring, and inflates to interfere with sleep and change the sleeping position on the back and side to prevent snoring, but all can only change the human body in the supine sleeping position The airway is unobstructed, and none of them can effectively adjust the airway unobstructed and prevent snoring when the user sleeps in any position
[0015] Most of the current pillows cannot effectively control the height of the head and neck separately, which cannot meet the height difference between the head and the neck in different sleeping positions, and cannot allow the cervical spine to maintain its physiological curvature in supine and side lying, and protect the cervical spine. , and make the neck force balance, high comfort
Some pillows inflate the airbags to adjust the height of the head and neck respectively in real time, but because the gas is easily compressed, it has a certain relationship with the temperature, so it cannot achieve precise control and cannot ensure the physiological curvature of the cervical spine

Embodiment approach 1

[0036] Embodiment 1, the anti-snoring drive module 14 is fixedly installed on the upper base 8 with an integrated push rod motor, wherein the integrated push rod motor can be a 50-70 stroke DC motor electric push rod motor telescopic rod miniature small lifter, rated voltage 12-24V available.

Embodiment approach 2

[0037] Embodiment 2, the anti-snoring mechanism is composed of a slider 2 and a guide rail 3. The rail slider mechanism can be used. The upper surface of the slider is fixedly connected with the head cushion connecting plate 6, and the upper and lower surfaces of the head cushion connecting plate 6 are respectively connected to the head. Cushion 7. The telescopic end of the anti-snoring drive module 14 is fixedly connected. The guide rail slider can be combined with SBR12 linear guide rail slider, or the FUYU ball screw slide table precision stepping cross motor can be used to move the CNC linear guide rail linear slide module. , to adjust the angle relationship between the head and the neck when lying on the side, and the head cushion material can be memory foam or latex.

Embodiment approach 3

[0038] Embodiment 3, the neck height adjustment driving module 12 adopts a motor reducer to integrate and fix the neck height adjustment mechanism 11 to drive the head height adjustment mechanism, wherein the motor can be a 42 stepper motor set.

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of medical care, in particular to a novel intelligent control which effectively prevents snoring and can carry out individualized sleeping posture adjustment. An object of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing pillows. A method for automatically identify sleeping position with reasonable structure features that that head position is automatically adjust to improve the patency of airway, the included angle between head and neck can be adjusted by sleeping on back and side, and the patency of human airway model can be improved to prevent snoring without disturbance. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for adjusting the height of a pillow by automatically recognizing a sleeping position and adaptively adjusting the height of a pillow corresponding to a head and a neck. The supine position and the lateral position can ensure the cervical vertebrae to reach the normal physiological curvaturestate, prevent the cervical vertebrae from being overweight, achieve the balance of the head and neck forces, and improve the sleep comfort.

Description

technical field [0001] The patent of the present invention relates to the technical field of medical care, specifically a new type of intelligent control that effectively prevents snoring and can adjust individualized sleeping positions. Background technique [0002] Sleep makes the human body enter a passive behavioral state, and sleep is an important link that must exist for the human body to rest and regulate physiological functions. When the human body enters the sleep state, the brain is in a different working mode from that when it is awake, so that the functions are adjusted, and the physical energy is restored and the spirit is rested on the surface. The main physiological functions of sleep in the human body are as follows: first, proper sleep can promote the growth and development of adolescents; second, sleep can eliminate fatigue and restore physical strength; third, sleep can protect the brain and make the spirit full. The harm of snoring, sleep accounts for ab...
