Problems solved by technology

[0003] For snoring, the existing devices installed on pillows, wristbands, sticking on the bridge of the nose, and inserting trachea through nostrils are all based on monitoring the snoring sound of the mouth and nose airflow. Changes in sleep position and the impact of bedding, monitoring often fails
For example, if the sensor installed on the wristband and pillow is used, the sound will be blocked because the sensor is covered by the quilt, and the monitoring will fail; among them, the sensor installed on the pillow is greatly affected by the sleeper's position. The sound level of sleeping monitoring points is very different; another example: although the form of sticking the bridge of the nose and the form of inserting the trachea through the nostrils are not affected by changes in sleeping positions, they are uncomfortable to wear, and some people even find it difficult to accept them.
[0004] In the prior art, there is also medical biological snoring monitoring, which uses bio-impedance technology to monitor by sticking ECG electrodes on the chest of the human body, but it is mainly used in medical places and is not used as a daily appliance; in fact, this form is also Because of its poor comfort, it is difficult to use it as a daily appliance for a long time

Embodiment 1

[0053] like figure 1 As shown, a vibration sensor 2 such as a six-axis gyroscope MPU6050 is set on the neck ring 4 as the body. The vibration sensor 2 corresponds to the neck when the neck ring is worn on the neck, and monitors the vibration of the lower airway neck caused by snoring; the vibration sensor 2. Send the monitored vibration signal to the wearable control hardware 1, and use the wearable control hardware 1 to analyze the vibration signal to determine whether the person is snoring; when it is judged to be snoring, drive the vibration motor 3 to send vibration intervention to the person to stop the snoring.

Embodiment 2

[0055] like figure 2 As shown, a vibration sensor 2 is set on the pajamas 5, and the vibration sensor 2 corresponds to the front end of the neck when the pajamas are worn, and monitors the tracheal vibration caused by snoring. The vibration motor 3 is arranged on the side of the wearable control hardware 1; the vibration sensor 2 will monitor The vibration signal is sent to the wearable control hardware 1, and the wearable control hardware 1 analyzes the vibration signal, and when it is judged to be snoring, it sends a reminder to the person to stop snoring; the vibration sensor 2 can use a single-axis acceleration sensor, or an acceleration sensor such as a motion sensor , Inertial measurement unit IMU can also be used, such as six-axis gyroscope, nine-axis gyroscope, etc.

Embodiment 3

[0057] like image 3 As shown, the vibration sensor 2 is set on the shoulder pad 6, the vibration sensor 2 is combined with the wearable control hardware 1, and the right lung part corresponding to the chest is worn to monitor the tracheal vibration caused by snoring; and the vibration sensor is set at the front end of the neckline of the shoulder pad The motor 3 vibration sensor 2 transmits the monitored vibration signal to the wearable control hardware 1, and the wearable control hardware 1 analyzes the vibration signal, and when it is judged to be snoring, it sends a reminder to the person to stop the snoring.

Abstract

The invention discloses wearable snoring monitoring equipment. The equipment is characterized in that the wearable equipment serves as a main body, and a vibrating sensor is arranged on the wearable equipment; when the wearable equipment is in a wearing state, the position where the vibrating sensor is located corresponds to the neck and / or chest of a human body; lower respiratory tract vibration,caused by snoring, of a wearer is monitored in real time through the vibration sensor, a monitoring signal of the vibration sensor is an output signal, whether the wearer snores or does not snore isjudged through the output signal, and when the wearer snores, the wearer is subjected to external force vibration intervention.

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to sleep appliances, and more particularly to devices for monitoring snoring. Background technique [0002] Snoring is a common phenomenon of sleep for many people. The medical term for snoring is snoring and sleep apnea syndrome. Snoring is the enemy of health. Repeated sleep apnea due to snoring causes severe hypoxia in the brain and blood, resulting in hypoxemia, which induces serious cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as high blood pressure, cerebral heart disease, arrhythmia, myocardial infarction, and angina pectoris. disease. [0003] For snoring, the existing devices installed on pillows, wristbands, sticking on the bridge of the nose, and inserting trachea through nostrils are all based on monitoring the snoring sound of the mouth and nose airflow. Changes in sleep position and the impact of bedding, monitoring often fails. For example, if the sensor installed on the wristband and pillow is used, the sou...
