Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electric blankets, and particularly to a multifunctional electric blanket and its control method. Background Art

[0002] In the cold season, as a common heating device, electric blankets are deeply loved by consumers. Traditional electric blankets mostly use heating wires as heating elements. However, they have many limitations. On the one hand, the heating efficiency of heating wires is relatively low, and the heating-up speed is slow. Users often need to turn on the electric blanket for a long time in advance to reach a comfortable temperature, resulting in a poor user experience. Moreover, during the heating process, the heat distribution is uneven, and local overheating or overcooling is likely to occur, which not only affects the sleep quality but also may cause safety hazards due to local overheating. With the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for the functions of electric blankets is becoming increasingly diverse. Consumers no longer only satisfy the basic heating function but also expect electric blankets to have functions such as mite removal, health care, and personalized temperature adjustment. For example, for people with allergies, they hope that the electric blanket can effectively remove mites and create a healthy sleep environment; for the situation of couples or multiple people sharing, different people have different temperature preferences, and the function of zone temperature control becomes an urgent need. At the same time, the rapid development of technology provides an opportunity for the technological innovation of electric blankets. The emergence of the new material graphene, due to its excellent electrical conductivity and electrothermal conversion performance, brings the possibility of improving the heating performance of electric blankets. The progress of microelectronics technology enables the realization of a more precise and intelligent control system, which can integrate multiple sensors to collect environmental data in real time and perform intelligent processing. The popularization of communication technologies such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi makes remote control a reality, greatly improving the user's convenience. In this context, it is imperative to develop a multifunctional intelligent electric blanket control system with graphene as the heating element, combined with advanced sensing, control, and communication technologies, aiming to solve the pain points of traditional electric blankets, meet the growing diverse needs of users, and improve people's quality of life.

[0015] 3. The multifunctional electric blanket and its control method.

At the same time, when the temperature is relatively low, the graphene heating layer is automatically started. The leakage protection module can detect whether there is a leakage phenomenon in the main body of the electric blanket, thus ensuring the use safety. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] By providing the upper soft layer 11 and the lower soft layer 14, the electric blanket main body 1 is made softer during use. At the same time, the medicine bag layer 12 is made of traditional Chinese medicine material. Therefore, when the graphene heating layer 13 is activated, the medicine bag layer 12 emits a certain amount of medicinal properties when heated, so it can play a role in regulating the body.
