Problems solved by technology

In this patent, although it is a direct detection of breathing, the accuracy is high, but the user needs to wear a rather long pipeline connected to an external device for analysis, which also makes the use of Relatively low convenience and mobility
[0011] Therefore, in many known simplified detection devices, either there is a connection wire, which makes it quite inconvenient to use, or it is too simple, and it is easy to be interfered, which leads to a low reliability of the value. Therefore, people feel that Insufficient

example 1

[0062] As shown in FIG. 2 , the sleep breathing state monitoring device 200 according to the present invention uses a breathing sensing component 21 (airflow or temperature sensing) attached to the airway, and a snoring sensing element attached near the user's neck. component 22 (vibration or sound sensing), and these two sensing components are externally connected to the main body 20, and are arranged at the position where the signal is extracted, so, in this case, the main body 20 can use the attached patch 23 And attached to the body close to the head, for example, on the shoulders, or on the chest, so that the connecting line connecting the sensing component will not be too long, and the user will not feel a foreign body sensation, that is to say , the configuration position exemplified in the figure is only one of the possibilities, as long as the user feels suitable and does not affect the measurement, the main body can be attached to any position, even on the forehead is...

example 2

[0066] Furthermore, in addition to the method of Example 1, as shown in Figure 3, the sleep breathing state monitoring device according to the present invention can also use the breathing sensing component for measuring the rise and fall of the chest and abdomen to replace the breathing airflow measurement The sensing component (i.e. using the chest belt 311 and the abdominal belt 312 around the user to measure the breathing state), together with the snoring sensing component 32 (vibration or sound sensing), can also achieve the purpose of pre-screening apnea symptoms .

[0067] However, in this embodiment, what is more special is that, in addition to the form of two straps (Fig. 3), the chest and abdomen rise and fall sensing component can also be implemented in the form of a combination of clothing worn by the user. For example, it can be two binding straps that are combined with the clothes worn by the user and can be adjusted in tightness, as shown in FIG. Of course, it i...

example 3

[0070] As in the above-mentioned embodiment, if the snore sensing component does not need to directly contact the neck due to the use of a sound sensing component, such as a microphone, the microphone can even be directly arranged on the clothing worn by the user, as shown in the figure 5 and 52 are sewn into the clothing. In this way, the setting steps before measurement can be further reduced, that is, the user only needs to put on the clothes, fasten the straps, combine the body, and press Switch, you can start to measure, and, in this embodiment, there is no need to worry about the problem of falling off.

Abstract

A respiratory state monitor for a sleeping user is composed of a main body with microprocessor, amplifier, A / D converter, display unit, memory, battery unit and transmission interface, a respiratory state sensor unit, and a snore sound sensor unit. Its monitoring method is also disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sleep breathing state monitoring device, in particular to a sleep breathing state monitoring device using a breathing sensing component and a snoring sound sensing component as detection basis. Background technique [0002] Sleep occupies almost one-third of a person's life, so if the quality of sleep is not good, or if they cannot get enough rest through sleep, it will naturally affect their daily life, but because people cannot get enough sleep during sleep If you don't know your own sleep status, you often blindly think that the main cause of mental distress is lack of sleep, and you increase your sleep time continuously. However, if you encounter a sleep disorder, such as sleep apnea, the more sleep you have, the more likely it will be The more you feel tired, it creates a vicious circle with no solution. Therefore, modern medicine pays more and more attention to sleep disorders. [0003] General hospitals detect sleep ...
