In addition, the utility model provides various specific examples of processes and materials, but those of ordinary skill in the art can be aware of the applicability of other processes and / or the use of other materials.
[0032] The following describes the odor simulation device 100 according to the first embodiment of the utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, the odor simulation device 100 according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model includes: an odor module 1, a wearable module 2 and an air duct 3, the odor module 1 includes an odor storage medium 11 and a release unit for releasing the odor in the odor storage medium 11, the wearable module 2 is formed with a connected odor release port 21 and an odor input interface 22, the two ends of the air duct 3 are respectively connected to the odor module 1 and the odor input interface 22, the wearable module 2 is used for being worn by a user, and releases odorous gas to the user through the odor release port 21. It can be understood that the odor storage medium 11 is used to store substances with odors such as aromatics. Therefore, the substances such as aromatics stored in the odor storage medium 11 can be released into the odor module 1 through the release unit, so that the gas in the odor module 1 can have the odor released by the substances such as aromatics in the odor storage medium 11. The air duct 3 can form a connected air flow channel between the odor module 1 and the wearable module 2. Therefore, the gas with the odor of the aromatic in the odor module 1 can be transported to the odor input interface 22 of the wearable module 2 through the air duct 3, and can be further released into the environment around the user through the odor release port 21, thereby achieving odor regulation of the environment in which the user is located. For example, the odor release port 21 can release the aromatic gas toward the mouth and nose of the user to improve the efficiency of the user smelling the aromatic gas.
[0034] Among them, the wearable module 2 is connected to the odor module 1 through the air duct 3, which is convenient for the wearable module 2 to be separated from the odor module 1. Therefore, the user only needs to wear the wearable module 2, which can effectively reduce the user's sense of weight when using the odor simulation device 100. At the same time, the wearable module 2 only needs to release the odorous gas to the user, which is conducive to simplifying the structure of the wearable module 2, making the wearable module 2 more lightweight and portable. Therefore, the discomfort of the user when using the odor simulation device 100 for a long time can be effectively reduced, which is conducive to improving the comfort of the user when using the odor simulation device 100.
[0035] According to the odor simulation device 100 of the first aspect of the present invention, the user only needs to wear the wearable module 2, which can effectively reduce the user's sense of weight when using the odor simulation device 100, and at the same time help to simplify the structure of the wearable module 2, making the wearable module 2 lighter and more portable, which can effectively reduce the user's discomfort when using the odor simulation device 100 for a long time, and help to improve the user's comfort when using the odor simulation device 100.
[0036] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the odor storage medium 11 includes: a plurality of odor storage units 111, the odor storage unit 111 has a storage cavity for storing aromatics, and the aromatics stored in the plurality of odor storage units 111 are different. That is, by storing aromatics of different smells in the plurality of odor storage units 111, aromatics of multiple different smells are stored in the odor storage medium 11 at the same time. Therefore, during the use of the odor simulation device 100, the odor module 1 can release gases of multiple different smells through the release unit, so that the odor module 1 can deliver multiple different smells to the wearable module 2 through the air duct 3, so as to release multiple different smells to the user through the wearable module 2. In this way, the diversity of odors that can be simulated by the odor simulation device 100 can be well improved, so that the odor simulation device 100 can flexibly release different odors to the user according to the simulation requirements, that is, the odor module 1 can realize the switching of odors while generating odors, which is conducive to improving the scope of application and simulation accuracy of the odor simulation device 100.
[0037] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the odor module 1 further includes: an odor mixing unit 13, the odor mixing unit 13 has an odor mixing chamber 131 and a connecting channel 132, the connecting channel 132 is provided with a plurality of corresponding to the odor storage units 111, the odor storage unit 111 is connected to the odor mixing chamber 131 through the corresponding connecting channel 132, and one end of the air duct 3 away from the odor input interface 22 is connected to the odor mixing chamber 131. That is, under the action of the release unit, the aromatics in the odor storage unit 111 can be released into the odor mixing chamber 131 through the corresponding connecting channel 132, so that when the aromatics of different odors in the plurality of odor storage units 111 enter the odor mixing chamber 131 through the corresponding connecting channel 132, they can be mixed to form a new odor, and the odor mixing chamber 131 is connected to the odor input interface 22 through the air duct 3, so that the mixed gas in the odor mixing chamber 131 can be released to the user's surroundings through the air duct 3, the odor input interface 22 and the odor release port 21.
[0038] In other words, the smell module 1 can release the smell of the fragrance stored in any one of the multiple smell storage units 111 individually, and the smell module 1 can also release a mixed smell of multiple fragrances stored in the multiple smell storage units 111, that is, the smell module 1 has the ability to release multiple smell combinations. Therefore, the user can choose different smell combinations as needed, and by mixing the smells of fragrances with different smells in the multiple smell storage units 111, more kinds of smells can be released to the user, so that the smell simulation device 100 can provide a richer and more diverse smell simulation experience, providing the user with a more personalized and customized experience, which is conducive to improving the scope of application and simulation accuracy of the smell simulation device 100.
[0039] In a specific example, the odor module 1 also has an air supply port 134 and an installation cavity 133 that are connected to the odor mixing cavity 131. The odor storage medium 11 is disposed in the installation cavity 133. The odor mixing cavity 131 is connected to the installation cavity 133 through a connecting passage 132. The other end of the air duct 3 away from the odor input interface 22 is connected to the air supply port 134. Furthermore, a plurality of air supply ports 134 are provided to facilitate the communication between the odor module 1 and a plurality of wearable modules 2.
[0040] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the release unit includes a plurality of electric heaters 121, and the plurality of electric heaters 121 correspond to the plurality of storage units 111 one by one, and the electric heaters 121 are used to heat the fragrance in the storage chamber. That is, each electric heater 121 is used to heat the corresponding odor storage unit 111, wherein the temperature of the fragrance in the storage chamber can be increased by heating the odor storage unit 111 so that the fragrance can be volatilized and released into the odor mixing chamber 131, that is, when the electric heating is turned on, the fragrance in the corresponding odor storage unit 111 enters the odor mixing chamber 131, and when the electric heater 121 is turned off, the fragrance in the corresponding odor storage unit 111 cannot be volatilized and released into the odor mixing chamber 131. Therefore, when the smell of one or more of the fragrances is required, the electric heater 121 corresponding to the required fragrance can be turned on. Thus, the release unit can control the on and off of the plurality of electric heaters 121 to meet different odor requirements. In addition, heating the odor storage unit 111 by the electric heater 121 can better increase the temperature of the fragrance in the odor storage unit 111, increase the kinetic energy of the gas molecules, and help to increase the mixing speed and effect of the gas in the odor mixing chamber 131, thereby shortening the response time of the odor module 1 to transmit the odor to the wearable module 2 after receiving the instruction to generate the odor.
[0041] In a specific example, the electric heater 121 is embedded in the odor storage medium 11 , which helps save the installation space of the electric heater 121 and reduce the heat loss between the electric heater 121 and the fragrance in the odor storage medium 11 .
[0042] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the release unit includes an electric heater 121 and multiple release switches, the electric heater 121 is used to heat the fragrance in the storage chamber, the multiple release switches correspond one-to-one to the multiple connecting channels 132, and the release switches are used to control the opening and closing of the connecting channels 132. That is to say, each connecting channel 132 is provided with a release switch for controlling the opening and closing of the connecting channel 132, and at the same time, multiple release switches correspond to multiple odor storage units 111 one by one. The release switch can control the connection or disconnection between the storage chamber of the corresponding odor storage unit 111 and the odor mixing chamber 131. Therefore, after the fragrance in the storage chamber is released by heating with the electric heater 121, when the release switch turns on the connecting channel 132, the fragrance in the corresponding odor storage unit 111 enters the odor mixing chamber 131 through the connecting channel 132; when the release switch turns off the connecting channel 132, the fragrance in the corresponding odor storage unit 111 cannot enter the odor mixing chamber 131 through the connecting channel 132. That is, by controlling the opening and closing of multiple release switches, the connection or disconnection between multiple storage chambers and the odor mixing chamber 131 can be flexibly controlled, so that the odor module 1 can accurately control the required fragrance to enter the odor mixing chamber 131 according to the odor requirements. Therefore, while increasing the number of odors that can be generated by the odor module 1, the accuracy of the odor generated by the odor module 1 can be improved, which is beneficial to improving the simulation accuracy of the odor simulation device 100.
[0043] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the release unit further includes a pressurized air pump 122, and the air outlet of the pressurized air pump 122 is connected to the odor mixing chamber 131. That is, the pressurized air pump 122 can deliver gas to the odor mixing chamber 131 to increase the pressure in the odor mixing chamber 131, so that the gas in the odor mixing chamber 131 can flow to the wearable module 2 through the air guide tube 3 under the action of the internal pressure and be released to the environment around the user through the odor release port 21. Therefore, the efficiency of releasing the gas in the odor mixing chamber 131 to the user through the wearable module 2 can be better improved by the pressurized air pump 122.
[0044] According to some embodiments of the utility model, a mounting cavity 133 is further formed in the odor mixing unit 13, the connecting channel 132 connects the odor mixing cavity 131 and the mounting cavity 133, and the odor storage medium 11 is detachably arranged in the mounting cavity 133. Therefore, after the odor storage medium 11 is installed in the mounting cavity 133, the odor in the odor storage medium 11 can enter the odor mixing cavity 131 through the connecting channel 132, and after the aromatics in the odor storage medium 11 are consumed, the odor storage medium 11 can be removed from the mounting cavity 133 for replacement or replenishment of aromatics, which is conducive to saving the use cost of the odor simulation device 100.
[0045] In some embodiments, the release unit further includes a pressurized air pump 122, the air outlet of the pressurized air pump 122 is connected to the odor mixing chamber 131, and a mounting chamber 133 is formed in the odor mixing unit 13. The connecting channel 132 connects the odor mixing chamber 131 and the mounting chamber 133, and the odor storage medium 11 is detachably arranged in the mounting chamber 133. Therefore, the efficiency of releasing the gas in the odor mixing chamber 131 to the user through the wearable module 2 can be improved by the pressurized air pump 122, and at the same time, it is beneficial to save the use cost of the odor simulation device 100.
[0046] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the odor storage unit 111 includes a plurality of storage holes 1111 arranged in a honeycomb shape, and the aromatics are arranged in the storage holes 1111, and the plurality of storage holes 1111 together constitute a storage cavity. Among them, the plurality of storage holes 1111 arranged in a honeycomb shape can improve the space utilization rate in the odor storage medium 11. Thus, the volume of the storage cavity of the odor storage unit 111 can be increased, which is conducive to increasing the amount of aromatics that can be stored in the odor storage unit 111, so as to ensure the durability of the odor storage medium 11.
[0047] In a specific example, the electric heater 121 is a heating wire and is embedded in the outer peripheral wall of the storage hole 1111. The heating wire extends along the extension direction of the storage hole 1111 and extends to the bottom of the storage hole 1111. The same heating wire can be used to heat the fragrance in three adjacent storage holes 1111 so that the fragrance volatilizes and is released into the odor mixing chamber 131.
[0048] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the wearable module 2 is one or more of the head-mounted, neck-hanging, wrist-mounted, clothes-clip-type, and ear-hanging types. Among them, the head-mounted wearable module 2 can be worn on the user's head, such as in the shape of a hat, which can shorten the distance between the wearable module 2 and the user's mouth and nose to ensure that the user can quickly smell the odor, while preventing the wearable module 2 from blocking the user's face and causing stuffiness, so as to improve the comfort of using the wearable module 2; the neck-hanging wearable module 2 can be worn on the user's neck, and the weight of the wearable module 2 can be shared by the shoulders and neck to reduce the discomfort of the user wearing the wearable module 2, such as the neck-hanging wearable module 2 includes a semi-enclosed neck hanging 25 and an odor releaser 23, and a connected odor input interface 22 and an odor release port 21 are formed on the semi-enclosed neck hanging 25, and the odor releaser 23 is arranged in the odor release port 21; the wrist-type wearable module 2 can be worn on the user's wrist or Any position on the upper limb can eliminate the interference of the wearable module 2 on the user's head and neck activities. For example, during the simulated driving process, if the user needs a real simulated driving environment, he needs to frequently turn his head to observe the driving situation, etc.; the clothespin-type wearable module 2 can be clamped on the user's clothes without contacting the user, thereby reducing the foreign body sensation of wearing the wearable module 2 and providing high comfort. For example, the clothespin-type wearable module 2 includes an openable and closable clamping member 24; the ear-hanging wearable module 2 can be fixed by cooperating with the user's ears. For example, the ear-hanging wearable module 2 can be in the shape of glasses, etc., and no specific restrictions are made here. The ear-hanging wearable module 2 can simulate the user wearing sunglasses or glasses, and will not block the user's face, especially the mouth and nose area, over a large area to prevent the user from feeling stuffy.
[0049] Therefore, the style of the wearable module 2 can be flexibly selected according to the needs of the simulation test and other scenarios to ensure that the user has the best wearing comfort. For example, the style can be selected according to the length of time the user needs to wear the wearable module 2. When the user needs to wear the wearable module 2 for a long time, a neck-hanging style, clothespin-style, or other style of wearable module 2 with less weight can be used, and no specific restrictions are made here.
[0050] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the odor module 1 also includes a control unit 14, and the control unit 14 includes: an electric control board 141 and an operating screen 142, the electric control board 141 is electrically connected to the release unit, and the operating screen 142 is electrically connected to the electric control board 141. In other words, the operating screen 142 is electrically connected to the release unit through the electric control board 141, so that the user can issue control instructions through the operating screen 142, and control the release unit through the electric control board 141, such as controlling the type and time of the odor generated by the release unit, so as to improve the flexibility of use and the scope of application of the odor simulation device 100. In a specific example, the operating screen 142 is a touch display screen, that is, the display and control are integrated on the screen, which takes up less space. Of course, the operation of the control unit 14 can also be achieved by physical buttons and the like, and no specific restrictions are made here.
[0051] Specifically, during the operation of the odor simulation device 100, the user or the system can send an odor generation instruction to the release unit through the control unit 14, wherein the odor generation instruction can include the type, quantity and release duration of the odor, etc. After receiving the instruction, the release unit controls the electric heater 121 to heat the specified fragrance to volatilize and release it into the odor mixing chamber 131 for mixing, and pressurizes the odor mixing chamber 131 through the pressurized air pump 122, so that the gas in the odor mixing chamber 131 can be transported to the wearable module 2 through the air duct 3 and released around the user.
[0052] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the control unit 14 also includes an external port electrically connected to the electric control board 141, and the external port is suitable for being electrically connected to an external device. Among them, the external device here refers to other devices in the same system as the odor simulation device 100. For example, when the odor simulation device 100 is used in a simulated driving system, the external device can be a driver, a display screen, a seat and other devices of the simulated driving system. Thus, the electrical connection between the control unit 14 and the external device can be realized through the external port, so that the interaction between the odor simulation device 100 and the external device can be realized, so that the odor simulation device 100 can be adjusted in real time according to the signal of the external device to improve the consistency of the system. For example, the odor simulation device 100 can adjust and change the odor simulation according to the actual driving situation so that it keeps synchronization with the simulation scene. In addition, a power interface 144 is provided on both the control unit 14 and the odor module 1, and the control unit 14 is electrically connected to the power module through the power interface 144. The power module can be a small battery or a rechargeable battery. The power interface 144 can also be electrically connected to the socket through a power cord, etc., to ensure the power supply to the odor module 1. In a specific example, a wireless receiving transmitter 143 is provided on the external port, so as to realize wireless signal transmission between the odor simulation device 100 and an external device.
[0053] In some embodiments, the odor module 1 further includes a housing 15 , and the odor module 1 and the control unit 14 are both disposed in the housing 15 .
[0054] The following describes a simulated driving system according to an embodiment of the second aspect of the utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0055] The driving simulation system according to the second embodiment of the utility model includes: an odor simulation device 100. Thus, the odor simulation device 100 can provide a solution of light wear and multiple odor combination release to enhance the realism and immersion of the driving simulation.
[0056] According to the simulated driving system of the second aspect of the present invention, the user only needs to wear the wearable module 2, which can effectively reduce the user's sense of weight when using the odor simulation device 100, and at the same time help to simplify the structural complexity of the wearable module 2, making the wearable module 2 lighter and more portable, which can effectively reduce the user's discomfort when using the odor simulation device 100 for a long time, and help to improve the user's comfort when using the odor simulation device 100.
