[0087] The sleeping pillow engineering file generation module determines the sleeping pillow engineering file through the sleeping pillow distribution hole array.

[0088] Example 3

[0089] Based on the above embodiment, a standard ideal head and neck pressure distribution matrix is ​​set. Figure 2The pressure distribution matrix shown, the ideal head and neck pressure distribution matrix is ​​the support target that the pillow needs to achieve, and the construction method is to calculate the average of the pressure distribution matrices ranked in the top 10% of the subjective evaluation.

[0090] The human head and neck database is constructed based on a large amount of human-machine data materials. The human head and neck database is constructed through measurement. The specific method is as follows: the subject maintains a normal physical condition during measurement, and the measurement clothing is based on tights or a small amount of necessary underwear.

[0091] When measuring, stand naturally upright, with your arms hanging naturally, your eyes looking straight ahead at a marker parallel to your line of sight, and your head, neck and shoulders relaxed;

[0092] The measurement personnel measured the weight, height, neck circumference, shoulder width, and posterior head contour curve of the subjects using a weight scale, height measuring ruler, circumference tape measure, Martin measuring ruler, and contour profiler to obtain the measurement data required for the experiment. The measured index data were entered into an EXCEL table and the relevant images were saved in JPG format.

[0093] The front and side profile curves of the head and neck of various groups of people are restored through data entry. The coordinates of each point measured above are entered into the computer. The front curve is from the cheekbone to the shoulder, and the back line is from the occipital cusp to the back. The database contains each sample in the form of a data set of coordinates of each point in the curve, as shown in the attached Figure 3 shown.

[0094] The database has its own algorithm, which can cluster the head and neck human-machine size samples through different judgment conditions. In the specific design and production process, the data can be classified as necessary according to the complexity of the product, cost investment, and population needs.

[0095] The median of the coordinates of the human-machine contour curve after each classification was calculated to obtain the average contour curve of each group of people, and the occipital cusp, the first cervical vertebrae curve, and the second physiological curve of the back in the side curve were extracted; the coordinates of 7 key nodes in the side curve, including the tip of the brow bone, the tip of the temporal bone, the junction of the mandible and neck, and the peak convex point, were used as the basis for pillow surface design.

[0096] The above 7 key point data of the target user are measured and entered, and the cosine similarity calculation is performed on the coordinate data of each classification key node.

[0097] The closer the calculated result is to 1, the more similar the two are. Record the minimum value of similarityB of the calculated result, and user A belongs to group B.

[0098] The median node position of the target user's group. The cosine similarity is used to determine which group the user belongs to. The heights of each node from the bed in the two lying positions are obtained by extracting the left side of the key nodes of the median curve of this group. These heights can be regarded as support conditions, which are also the state of the pillow after the human body sleeps on it.

[0099] Taking the memory foam with a diameter of 110 mm

[40] , a density of 60D, and a staggered hole spacing of 30 mm as an example, the fitting results are:

[0100] d=3.613k -0.769 (6≤d≤21)

[0101] Since pillows need to provide support and wrapping at the same time, the designed sleeping pillow adopts a double-layer structure. The upper and lower layers are made of foam materials with different hardness. The two materials need to satisfy the requirement that the comprehensive stiffness coefficient of the upper layer material is smaller than that of the lower layer, and the sum of the thickness of the double layers is between 90-110 before pressure is applied. Taking the 11-zone sub-surface support conditions and material physical properties data as variables, the specific parameters and hole array arrangement matrix of the upper and lower layer designs of pillows for specific people and specific materials are determined through fitting, and engineering files for production are generated, such as Figure 7 shown.
