Embodiment approach 1

[0037] The sleep control system 1 according to Embodiment 1 will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0038] figure 1 It is a schematic perspective view of the sleep control system 1 used in this embodiment. The sleep control system 1 of the present embodiment includes a heating unit 2 for heating the human body, and a control unit 3 for controlling the heating operation of the heating unit 2.

[0039] The warming unit 2 is provided above the mattress 4 and below the human body. Then, the warming part 2 generates heat using a nichrome wire, and applies heat by contacting the human body. In addition, in this embodiment, the warming part 2 is formed in such a size as to heat the range from the shoulders to the feet of the human body.

[0040] As a method of applying heat to the human body, there is also a method of raising the temperature itself, such as an air conditioner. However, people will feel uncomfortable when the temperature rises during sleep, whic...

Embodiment approach 2

[0069] A sleep control system 1a according to Embodiment 2 will be described below with reference to the drawings. This embodiment differs from Embodiment 1 in that a vibration sensor 10 is provided in the sleep control system 1a. In this embodiment, the description will focus on the differences from Embodiment 1.

[0070] Figure 6 It is a schematic perspective view of the sleep control system 1a used in this embodiment. Figure 7 It is a block diagram showing the structure of the control part 3a used in this embodiment. Figure 8 It is a flowchart for explaining the operation of the sleep control system 1a used in this embodiment.

[0071] Such as Figure 6 As shown, the sleep control system 1a of this embodiment is provided with a vibration sensor 10 in the warming portion 2a. As the vibration sensor 10, a sensor using a piezoelectric element, an ultrasonic Doppler sensor, or the like may be used. Vibrations such as turning over of the human body are detected by the ...

Embodiment approach 3

[0082] A sleep control system 1b according to Embodiment 3 will be described below with reference to the drawings. This embodiment differs from Embodiment 1 in that a sounder 11 is provided in the sleep control system 1b. In this embodiment, the description will focus on the differences from Embodiment 1. FIG.

[0083] Figure 9 It is a block diagram showing the structure of the control part 3b used in this embodiment. Figure 10 It is a flowchart for explaining the operation of the sleep control system 1b used in this embodiment.

[0084] Such as Figure 9 As shown, in the sleep control system 1b of this embodiment, a sounder 11 is provided in the control unit 3b. Then, the control circuit 5b in the control unit 3b generates a signal at the scheduled wake-up time, and the sound as an alarm at the scheduled wake-up time is emitted from the sounder 11 based on the signal.

[0085] Such as Figure 10 As shown, in the sleep control system 1b of this embodiment, after the c...

Abstract

In a sleep control electric blanket, the body temperature is raised 45 minutes before getting up. Therefore, taking into account the approximately 90-minute rem / non-rem sleep cycle, the body temperature may not be raised during the rem sleep period. For obtaining A comfortable waking state is not enough. A sleep control system (1) of the present invention includes a warming unit (2) that contacts the human body and performs heating, and a control unit (3) that controls the heating operation of the warming unit (2). The sleep control system is characterized in that: The hot part (2) heats at 36 to 41°C from the heating start time 90 to 150 minutes before the scheduled wake-up time to the scheduled wake-up time, and starts heating after going to bed or after a certain period of time has passed. Do not heat to a temperature higher than 33°C until the time.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to sleep control systems, and more particularly to sleep control systems for comfortable waking up. Background technique [0002] The sleep time of modern people tends to decrease, but on the other hand, in order to promote social activities, they have to get up at a roughly fixed time in the morning. Many people wake up forcibly by using an alarm clock or the like, which causes a feeling of sleep insufficiency, sleep inertia, and decreased mobility immediately after waking up. As sleep control warming devices for improving such problems, the following devices have been developed. [0003] Figure 14 It is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of a sleep control electric blanket disclosed in Patent Document 1. The blanket main body 101 heats the upper body of the human body by the upper heater 102, and heats the lower body of the human body by the lower heater 103. In addition, the heating temperature of the upper...
