[0022] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Based on the characteristics of sleep, auxiliary work for sleep usually includes three stages: sleep aid before bedtime, that is, making people feel sleepy in some way so that they can fall asleep quickly; sleep maintenance, that is, maintaining the sleep state by imposing some intervention on the user or providing a good sleeping environment during the sleep process, such as creating a dark environment; wake-up after sleep, that is, the user may still feel a little sleepy when he just wakes up, and his mind is not very clear, so he can be awakened in some way after waking up so that he can get into work better and faster.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the eye mask in this embodiment includes a main body 1, a fixing belt 2, an electrochromic lens 3, a control module 4, and a frame 5.

[0025] The main body 1 is used to be placed on the user's eyes and their surroundings, and its flap area can cover the eyes and part of the forehead. A visual window 11 is provided on the main body 1 in the area corresponding to the eyes. In this embodiment, two visual windows 11 are provided in the horizontal direction, that is, a visual window 11 is provided on the main body 1 corresponding to each eye area. In order to ensure the comfort of the main body 1 in contact with the user's skin, the main body 1 can be made of a flexible material with a certain degree of deformation ability, or a soft layer can be attached to the inner side of the main body 1.

[0026] The fixing belt 2 is connected to both sides of the main body 1, and is used to fix the main body 1. The fixing belt 2 can be an elastic belt according to the needs, or the fixing belt 2 can be a two-section structure, and the free ends of the two sections of the fixing belt 2 are bonded and connected by a patch or other structure. Then, the fixing belt 2 is wrapped around the back of the user's head to fix the main body 1.

[0027] The control module 4 and the electrochromic lens 3 are both arranged on the main body 1, and the electrochromic lens 3 covers the visual window 11 and is electrically connected to the control module 4. Under the control of the control module 4, based on the different voltages input to the electrochromic lens 3, the electrochromic lens 3 presents different colors, and the transmittance of the electrochromic lens 3 is changed. For example, when it is necessary to assist in sleeping, the transmittance of the electrochromic lens 3 is controlled to be reduced to avoid the influence of external light on the user's sleep. When it is necessary to promote awakening, the power supply voltage of the electrochromic lens 3 is adjusted, so that the electrochromic lens 3 is in a high light transmittance state, which can speed up the user's awakening and achieve the effect of an alarm clock.

[0028] In order to facilitate the installation of the electrochromic lens 3, in this embodiment, a frame 5 is provided on the front side of the main body 1, and the electrochromic lens 3 is embedded in the frame 5. In addition, the electrochromic lens 3 in this embodiment is connected to the frame 5 in a flippable manner. Before sleeping, the electrochromic lens 3 can be flipped up to avoid affecting the user's vision. An electric flip structure can be used as needed, and the specific driving mechanism can be connected to the control module 4 by electrical signals, and then the electrochromic lens 3 is driven to flip up or cover down under the control of the control module 4.

[0029] Specifically, the frame body 5 includes a bottom frame 51 fixed to the front side of the main body 1 and a front frame 52 rotatably connected to the front side of the bottom frame 51 . The electrochromic lens 3 is embedded in the front frame 52 , that is, the electrochromic lens 3 is flipped relative to the visible window 11 by flipping the front frame 52 relative to the bottom frame 51 .

[0030] In order to better play the different roles of light on the user's sleep, a lamp group for generating light of different colors is also provided on the frame 5, and the lamp group is electrically connected to the control module 4. The lamp group in this embodiment includes a first group of lamp bodies 6 for generating red and orange light and a second group of lamp bodies 7 for generating blue light, and the first group of lamp bodies 6 and the second group of lamp bodies 7 are both electrically connected to the control module 4. Based on common knowledge, it can be known that red and orange light is perceived by the optic nerve, produces sleepiness, and promotes falling asleep. That is, when sleep aid is needed, the control module 4 controls the first group of lamp bodies 6 to be turned on, thereby playing a role in promoting sleep. Blue light can quickly inhibit the secretion of melatonin, so that people can quickly wake up and improve their attention. Therefore, when wake-up is needed, the control module 4 controls the second group of lamp bodies 7 to be turned on, thereby playing a role in promoting wake-up. In this embodiment, the first group of lamp bodies 6 and the second group of lamp bodies 7 both include a plurality of lamp beads, and the lamp beads constituting the first group of lamp bodies 6 are distributed on the upper and lower edges of the frame 5, while the lamp beads constituting the second group of lamp bodies 7 are distributed on the left and right edges of the frame 5. For better effect, the first group of lamp bodies 6 and the second group of lamp bodies 7 in this embodiment are both arranged on the inner side of the front frame 52. The front frame 52 can be flipped upward for use. The advantage of this usage angle is that the light source can be perceived by the eyes as much as possible without affecting the user's vision.

[0031] In order to further promote the user's sleep and better maintain the user's sleep state, an electrode group 8 for generating microcurrent is provided on the inner side of the main body 1. The electrode group 8 is electrically connected to the control module 4. In this embodiment, the electrode group 8 is arranged on the main body 1 corresponding to the position of the user's forehead. The electrode group 8 includes a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The working principle of the electrode group 8 is the same as the electrode structure involved in the existing sleep meter. The electrodes act on the human body, thereby playing a role in promoting sleep, maintaining sleep, etc.

[0032] In addition, in order to better understand the user's sleeping state, an EEG detection module 9 for detecting the user's EEG signals is provided on the inner side of the main body 1. The EEG detection module 9 is electrically connected to the control module 4. Based on the real-time monitoring of EEG signals by the EEG detection module 9, the user's sleeping state can be better understood, and the corresponding components can be controlled to play a role in promoting sleep or wakefulness.

[0033] In order to further effectively understand the user's sleeping state, the main body 1 is provided with an opening and closing detection module 100 for detecting the opening and closing state of the user's eyes. The opening and closing detection module 100 is electrically connected to the control module 4. By detecting the opening and closing state of the user's eyes by the opening and closing detection module 100, it is possible to better judge whether the user is sleepy.

[0034] For the convenience of user operation, the main body 1 is provided with an operation key 200 which is electrically connected to the control module 4. The user can use the operation key 200 to perform functions such as mode selection. The number of the operation keys 200 and the corresponding functions are set according to specific needs.

[0035] In order to enable the user to operate the eye mask based on other smart terminals, a wireless communication module that is electrically connected to the control module 4 is provided on the main body 1. The eye mask can communicate with other smart terminals through the wireless communication module, so that the user can control the operation of the eye mask by operating on the smart terminal.

[0036] When the eye mask is used, the user can set the wake-up time and wake-up duration. After putting on the eye mask and turning it on, the sleep-aiding mode is turned on. The control module 4 controls the electrochromic lens 3 to flip upward, and controls the first group of lamp bodies 6 to turn on. The first group of lamp bodies 6 irradiate red and orange light. At the same time, the control module 4 also controls the electrode group 8 to work, thereby jointly exerting a sleep-aiding effect. In this process, the user may feel sleepy and actively adjust the eye mask to sleep mode. The user may also be reading or playing with a mobile phone. Based on the sleep-aiding effect of the eye mask, there is a situation where the user falls asleep unconsciously. At this time, the opening and closing detection module 100 can be relied on to detect the opening and closing state of the user's eyes. If it is detected that the eyes are in a closed state for more than a certain period of time, it is judged that the user wants to rest or has fallen asleep. At this time, the eye mask is automatically adjusted to sleep mode.

[0037] When the eye mask enters the sleep mode, the control module 4 controls the first group of lamp bodies 6 to stop working, and controls the electrochromic lens 3 to flip down and cover the visual window 11, and controls to reduce the light transmittance of the electrochromic lens 3. At the same time, the EEG detection module 9 detects the user's EEG signal in real time, and then determines the user's sleep state. When it is determined that the user has fallen asleep completely, the control module 4 controls the electrode group 8 to stop working.

[0038] When the wake-up time before the user-set wake-up time is reached, the control module 4 controls the adjustment of the power supply voltage to the electrochromic lens 3, gradually adjusts the transmittance of the electrochromic lens 3, and makes the electrochromic lens 3 gradually transparent, thereby achieving the effect of awakening. Based on demand, the control module 4 can control the electrochromic lens 3 to flip upward, and control the opening of the second group of lamp bodies 7, and the second group of lamp bodies 7 emits blue light to help the user wake up quickly. Or based on the user's choice, the control module 4 controls the second group of lamp bodies 7 to turn on.

[0039] The eye mask of the utility model utilizes the color-changing property of the electrochromic lens 3 to play the role of helping sleep or waking up.

[0040] On this basis, the light group and the electrode group 8 can also cooperate to play a role in helping sleep or waking up, and play a better auxiliary role in whether the user's sleep can adapt, and the function is rich. The eye mask can meet various auxiliary needs in different stages of sleep, improve the user's sleep effect, and meet the different needs of users in helping sleep, deep sleep, and waking up during sleep.
