[0002] Tinnitus is a condition in which people perceive sounds that are not there. Many people suffer from it, but it is difficult to describe the severity of tinnitus. Tinnitus may be caused by overactivity of certain cells in the brain.
[0003] Headphones combined with electric pulse stimulation are a new type of sleep aid for tinnitus patients. The device plays sounds of different frequencies and transmits weak electric pulses to the tongue, guiding the brain to focus on other sounds rather than tinnitus, reducing attention to tinnitus and achieving the effect of assisting sleep. However, after the electric pulse stick on the device is used, the electric pulse stick is exposed, which can easily cause dust to accumulate on the surface of the electric pulse stick and increase the chance of damage. During the use of the electric pulse stick, saliva adhering to the surface of the electric pulse stick poses a risk of corroding the electrode and affecting current conduction. Therefore, we propose a sleep aid device for tinnitus patients. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0030] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-9 The sleep aid device for tinnitus patients shown in the figure includes a headset for masking external sounds, the headset includes two sets of earmuffs 101, and the two sets of earmuffs 101 are connected and fixed by a headband 102, and further includes:
[0031] An electric pulse stimulation assembly for stimulating the brain of a tinnitus patient, comprising a base 201 connected to the two sets of earmuffs 101 via a connecting assembly. An electric pulse rod 202 for providing electric pulses is mounted on the front end of the base 201. A protective assembly is provided on the base 201 for protecting the electric pulse rod 202.
[0032] The protective assembly includes an annular cover 401 located in front of the electric pulse rod 202, a shielding assembly for shielding the front end of the electric pulse rod 202 is provided inside the annular cover 401, an annular liquid storage barrel 402 is fixed to one side of the annular cover 401, and a disinfection assembly for disinfecting the electric pulse rod 202 after use is provided on the annular liquid storage barrel 402, an organ pipe 403 for shielding and protecting the electric pulse rod 202 is installed between the annular cover 401 and the base 201, the annular liquid storage barrel 402 is located on the inner side of the organ pipe 403, and a first spring 404 is provided on the outer side of the electric pulse rod 202, and the two ends of the first spring 404 are respectively set against the annular cover 401 and the base 201;
[0033] It should be noted here that: through the use of headphones and electric pulse stimulation components, the concern about tinnitus is reduced, and the effect of assisting sleep is achieved. During the use of the electric pulse stimulation component, the protection component, the shielding component and the disinfection component cooperate with each other, which can not only protect the electric pulse rod 202 and reduce the chance of surface dust accumulation and damage of the electric pulse rod 202, but also wipe and clean the saliva adhering to the surface of the electric pulse rod 202 after use through the annular sponge 704 to avoid saliva corrosion of the electrode. Moreover, because the annular sponge 704 is invaded by disinfectant, part of the disinfectant is coated on the surface of the electric pulse rod 202 during the process of the annular sponge 704 and the electric pulse rod 202 being against each other, the electric pulse rod 202 after use is disinfected, so that the electric pulse rod 202 can be used more hygienically to assist sleep in the future.
[0034] Preferably, the disinfection component includes an annular partition 701 fixed to the inside of the annular liquid storage barrel 402, and the inside of the annular liquid storage barrel 402 forms a liquid storage chamber and a liquid outlet chamber under the dividing action of the annular partition 701, the inside of the liquid storage chamber and the liquid outlet chamber are filled with disinfectant, and the liquid outlet chamber is located on the inner side of the liquid storage chamber, an annular plate 702 is fixed to the inside of the annular liquid storage barrel 402, an annular groove 703 is opened inside the annular plate 702, an annular sponge 704 is installed inside the annular groove 703, and the annular sponge 704 is arranged against the outer side of the electric pulse rod 202, a circulation component for guiding liquid supply is provided inside the annular liquid storage barrel 402, an annular extrusion plate 9 for squeezing the disinfectant inside the liquid outlet chamber is slidably connected to the inside of the liquid outlet chamber, a transmission component for assisting the transmission of the annular extrusion plate 9 is provided on the annular liquid storage barrel 402, and a liquid supply component for supplying liquid to the inside of the liquid storage chamber is provided on the outside of the annular liquid storage barrel 402;
[0035] It should be noted here that: after the use of the electric pulse rod 202 is completed, the annular cover 401 is pulled to reset it. By resetting the annular cover 401, the electric pulse rod 202 is shielded and protected again. Because the annular sponge 704 is against the outer side of the electric pulse rod 202, during the resetting of the annular cover 401, the saliva adhering to the surface of the electric pulse rod 202 after use is wiped clean by the annular sponge 704 to avoid the risk of saliva corroding the electrode and affecting the conduction of current. Moreover, because disinfectant has invaded the annular sponge 704, during the process of the annular sponge 704 and the electric pulse rod 202 being against each other, part of the disinfectant is coated on the surface of the electric pulse rod 202, thereby disinfecting the electric pulse rod 202 after use.
[0036] Preferably, multiple groups of circulation components are provided, and each group of circulation components is arranged in a circular array on the annular liquid storage barrel 402. The circulation components include a first one-way valve 801 and a second one-way valve 802. The first one-way valve 801 is installed on the annular partition 701 through a mounting hole, and the second one-way valve 802 is installed between the annular liquid storage barrel 402 and the annular groove 703 through a mounting hole.
[0037] It should be noted that part of the disinfectant in the liquid storage chamber is squeezed through the second one-way valve 802 and transported to the inside of the annular groove 703 through the circulation component and is immersed in the annular sponge 704.
[0038] Preferably, the conducting direction of the first one-way valve 801 is from the interior of the liquid storage chamber to the interior of the liquid discharge chamber, and the conducting direction of the second one-way valve 802 is from the interior of the liquid discharge chamber to the interior of the annular groove 703; the transmission assembly includes a plurality of groups of T-shaped push rods 1001 slidably connected to the lower end of the annular liquid storage barrel 402, one end of the T-shaped push rod 1001 is fixed to the annular extrusion plate 9, and a second spring 1002 is sleeved on the outer side of the T-shaped push rod 1001, one end of the second spring 1002 is connected to the lower end of the annular liquid storage barrel 402, and the other end of the second spring 1002 is connected to the T-shaped end of the T-shaped push rod 1001;
[0039] It should be noted that during the retraction and pushing of the annular cover 401, as the annular cover 401 moves, one end of each group of T-shaped push rods 1001 abuts against the end of the base 201, pushing the annular extrusion plate 9 to slide within the liquid outlet chamber. Because the first one-way valve 801 is open from the interior of the liquid storage chamber to the interior of the liquid outlet chamber, and the second one-way valve 802 is open from the interior of the liquid outlet chamber to the interior of the annular groove 703, during the movement of the annular extrusion plate 9, some disinfectant within the liquid storage chamber is squeezed through the second one-way valve 802 and transported into the interior of the annular groove 703, where it is soaked into the annular sponge 704. When the T-shaped push rods 1001 no longer abut against the base 201, the second spring 1002 pushes the annular extrusion plate 9 to return to its original position. During the return of the annular extrusion plate 9, negative pressure is generated within the liquid outlet chamber. Under the action of this pressure, the disinfectant within the liquid storage chamber is transported through the first one-way valve 801 to the interior of the liquid outlet chamber, facilitating the subsequent disinfection operation.
[0040] Preferably, the liquid supply assembly includes a supply pipe 1101 mounted on the annular liquid storage barrel 402, the supply pipe 1101 being in communication with the interior of the liquid storage chamber, and a plug 1102 for sealing the supply pipe 1101 being detachably connected to one end of the supply pipe 1101 away from the annular liquid storage barrel 402 by means of a thread;
[0041] It should be noted here that when disinfectant needs to be added to the inside of the annular liquid storage barrel 402, the plug 1102 is removed from the supply pipe 1101, and the disinfectant can be supplied and transported to the inside of the annular liquid storage barrel 402 through the supply pipe 1101.
[0042] Preferably, the annular liquid storage barrel 402 is made of transparent material;
[0043] It should be noted here that: because the annular liquid storage barrel 402 is made of transparent material, it is convenient to observe and identify the usage of the disinfectant inside the annular liquid storage barrel 402.
[0044] Preferably, the shielding assembly includes four groups of triangular plates 501 evenly distributed inside the annular cover 401. An elastic component for pushing the triangular plates 501 against each other is provided inside the annular cover 401. The four groups of triangular plates 501 are pushed against each other by the elastic component and are arranged in a rectangular shape. One side of the triangular plate 501 is provided with an inclined surface 502 for pushing against the electric pulse rod 202.
[0045] It should be noted here that before the electric pulse rod 202 is used, the front end of the electric pulse rod 202 is shielded by the multiple sets of triangular plates 501 inside the annular cover 401, and the outer side of the electric pulse rod 202 is shielded by the organ pipe 403, thereby protecting the electric pulse rod 202 and reducing the chance of dust accumulation and damage to the surface of the electric pulse rod 202.
[0046] Preferably, the elastic component includes multiple sets of sleeves 601 fixed inside the annular cover 401, and a slide rod 602 is slidably connected to the sleeve 601. One end of the slide rod 602 is fixed to the triangular plate 501. A third spring 603 is sleeved on the outer side of the sleeve 601, and the two ends of the third spring 603 are respectively set against the triangular plate 501 and the inner wall of the annular cover 401;
[0047] It should be noted that: each set of sleeves 601 and slide bars 602 facilitates the telescopic connection of the auxiliary triangular plate 501 , and the third spring 603 facilitates the elastic push of the triangular plate 501 .
[0048] Preferably, the connecting assembly includes a threaded sleeve 301 fixed to the lower end of the earmuff 101, two sets of connecting ropes 303 fixed to the base 201, and threaded pins 302 fixed to one end of the two sets of connecting ropes 303. The two sets of threaded pins 302 are respectively threadedly engaged with the two sets of threaded sleeves 301;
[0049] It should be noted here that the threaded sleeve 301, the threaded pin 302 and the connecting rope 303 facilitate the connection between the base 201 and the two sets of earmuffs 101, thereby preventing the electric pulse stimulation component from being lost due to its small size.
[0050] In this solution: A sleep aid device for tinnitus patients includes the following steps:
[0051] When a tinnitus patient uses the assistive device to assist in sleeping, the patient puts on the headphones, and covers the patient's ears with two sets of earmuffs 101. The sound played on the headphones can mask the sound of the tinnitus to a certain extent, helping the tinnitus patient to improve his mood and achieve the effect of soothing the tinnitus. After the headphones are put on, the front end of the electric pulse rod 202 on the electric pulse stimulation component is placed in the mouth of the tinnitus patient and pressed against the tongue. The electric pulse rod 202 transmits weak electric pulses to specific parts of the brain or the tongue, guiding the brain to focus on other sounds rather than the tinnitus sound, reducing attention to the tinnitus. Through repeated use, the brain's response pattern is changed, making the person more easily hypnotized, thereby achieving the effect of assisting sleep.
[0052] Regarding the operation and use of the electric pulse stimulation component, before the electric pulse stick 202 is used, the front end of the electric pulse stick 202 is shielded by the multiple sets of triangular plates 501 inside the annular cover 401 and the outer side of the electric pulse stick 202 is shielded by the organ pipe 403, thereby protecting the electric pulse stick 202 and reducing the chance of dust accumulation and damage to the surface of the electric pulse stick 202. When the electric pulse stick 202 needs to be used, the annular cover 401 is pushed toward the base 201 so that the front end of the electric pulse stick 202 is exposed for use. When the annular cover 401 is pushed During the process, the inclined surfaces 502 on the four groups of triangular plates 501 are against the front end of the electric pulse rod 202, pushing the triangular plates 501 of each group to move away from each other under force. The contraction movement of each group of triangular plates 501 facilitates the normal pushing and contraction drive of the annular cover 401. After the annular cover 401 is contracted and pushed, the elastic force of the elastic component on each group of triangular plates 501 causes the front end of the triangular plates 501 to be against the outer side of the electric pulse rod 202. Through the mutual pressing effect, it is easy to maintain the state of the annular cover 401 after contraction and pushing (see Figure 9 ), and in the process of contracting and pushing the annular cover 401, as the annular cover 401 moves, one end of each group of T-shaped push rods 1001 is abutted against the end of the base 201, pushing the annular extrusion plate 9 to slide inside the liquid outlet cavity. Since the conducting direction of the first one-way valve 801 is from the inside of the liquid storage cavity to the inside of the liquid outlet cavity, and the conducting direction of the second one-way valve 802 is from the inside of the liquid outlet cavity to the inside of the annular groove 703, during the movement of the annular extrusion plate 9, part of the disinfectant inside the liquid storage cavity is squeezed through the second one-way valve 802 and transported to the inside of the annular groove 703 and immersed in the annular sponge 704 (see Figure 5 );
[0053] After the use of the electric pulse stick 202 is completed, the annular cover 401 is pulled to reset. By resetting the annular cover 401, the electric pulse stick 202 is shielded and protected again. Because the annular sponge 704 is against the outer side of the electric pulse stick 202, during the process of resetting the annular cover 401, the saliva adhering to the surface of the electric pulse stick 202 after use is wiped and cleaned by the annular sponge 704, thereby avoiding the risk of saliva corroding the electrodes and affecting the conduction of current. In addition, since disinfectant has penetrated into the annular sponge 704, during the process of the annular sponge 704 and the electric pulse stick 202 being against each other, part of the disinfectant is coated on the surface of the electric pulse stick 202, thereby disinfecting the electric pulse stick 202 after use, so that the electric pulse stick 202 can be used more hygienically to assist sleep in the future.
[0054] To verify the auxiliary therapeutic effect of the headphones and electric pulse stimulation component of the sleep aid device for tinnitus patients in Example 1, the following treatment method and research design were used. During the verification process, 326 adults with chronic subjective tinnitus were recruited and randomly divided into three groups. Different stimulation settings were used as follows:
[0055] Group A, consisting of 108 people, served as a reference group and did not receive any auxiliary stimulation.
[0056] Group B, consisting of 109 participants, served as a reference group and received medication for auxiliary stimulation (the specific medications can be divided into: 1. medications that improve inner ear microcirculation, such as ginkgo biloba extract and betahistine; 2. neurotrophic drugs, such as methylcobalamin; the methods and administration of medications that improve inner ear microcirculation and neurotrophic drugs are considered prior art in this application and are not described in detail herein);
[0057] Group C, 109 people, used headphones and an electrical pulse stimulation component to assist stimulation;
[0058] The severity of tinnitus was scored on a scale of 1-100. The scores of Groups A, B, and C before and after 12 weeks of treatment were as follows:
[0059]
[0060] Regarding the scoring method, the method used in this application is the objective electroencephalogram assessment method;
[0061] The scoring principle is that tinnitus patients experience changes in their brain neural activity, which can be recorded through electroencephalograms (EEGs). For example, tinnitus patients may experience abnormal EEG rhythms in the auditory cortex and other related brain areas, such as increased gamma-band power. Researchers assess the severity of tinnitus by analyzing these EEG signal characteristics.
[0062] Operation method: The person to be scored needs to wear an EEG electrode cap. The electrodes will be attached to specific positions on the scalp to record the electrical activity of the brain. During the recording process, the patient needs to remain quiet and avoid large movements of the head and body to avoid generating interference signals. The recording time generally ranges from several minutes to tens of minutes.
[0063] The results showed that after 12 weeks of treatment, the mean scores of Group B and Group C decreased significantly, and the average score of Group C decreased by 14.09 points after treatment, which was more significant than the 4.4-point decrease in Group B. Therefore, it was concluded that headphones and electric pulse stimulation components have a good auxiliary treatment effect on tinnitus patients.
