Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to health care instrument field, concretely relates to an intelligent sleep-aiding pillow for improving sleep. BACKGROUND

[0002] Sleep deprivation refers to the state that an individual does not get enough sleep in a period of time, resulting in that the sleep demand of the individual is not fully satisfied. It includes insomnia, sleep disorders, sleep quality disturbance and the like. Sleep deprivation is harmful, and long-term sleep deprivation can cause a series of changes in learning and memory, emotion, immune function, hormones and neurotransmitters in the human body, and can even induce heart disease, stroke and even sudden death. Among them, difficulty falling asleep is the most common form, usually being full of energy and having no desire to sleep at night, and being difficult to fall asleep. After waking up, there can be symptoms such as headache, dizziness and fatigue. Difficulty falling asleep can be caused by many factors, and is often related to physical illness. The main reasons include anxiety and high stress.

[0003] The insomnia patient relaxes the brain through pre-sleep audio therapy, hot compress therapy, and aroma therapy. The audio therapy stimulates sleep through inducing relaxation and distraction response. The hot compress therapy promotes sleep by accelerating blood circulation in the head and neck and relieving neck stiffness. The aroma therapy improves sleep quality, relieves nerves, reduces anxiety, promotes sleep, and relieves symptoms such as headache and dizziness through the smell of some plants.

[0004] In summary, the existing functional pillow has a single function, and the pillow shape design is unreasonable. The sleep-aiding pillow made by the special smell of plants has a short service life due to the volatile nature of the smell, and the sleep-aiding effect is greatly reduced after the smell is volatilized. Therefore, a new technology is needed to improve this phenomenon. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0017] Beneficial effects

[0018] This invention features a sleep-aid pillow designed to conform to the natural growth pattern of the human body. The protrusions engage with adjacent grooves, sealing them. The surface of the protrusions contacts the solid essential oils, hindering their evaporation. In use, the seat and friction plate are positioned under the pillow, facilitating relative sliding. Difficulty falling asleep or tossing and turning can alter the gravitational potential energy of the friction plate, increasing sliding friction between the friction plate and seat. This causes the protrusions to slide relative to the grooves, while the elastic layer undergoes elastic stretching deformation, altering the sealed state of the grooves and increasing the contact between the solid essential oils and air. The sliding of the protrusions relative to the grooves increases the extensibility of the solid essential oils adhering to their surfaces, further promoting evaporation. The combined effect of friction and the heating module enhances the evaporation of the solid essential oils, extending the lifespan of the aromatherapy. This invention integrates sleep-aid functions such as heat therapy, audio, and aromatherapy, effectively improving insomnia caused by stress and anxiety. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0027] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a smart sleep aid pillow for improving sleep includes a pillow core 1, which is made of slow-rebound memory foam material. The pillow core 1 has a multi-arc contour with varying heights, which conforms to the natural growth curve of the human body and provides good support for the head and neck, preventing cervical spine deformation and cervical spondylosis.

[0028] In this embodiment, the pillow core 1 is equipped with a music player module 4, a heating module 9, a Bluetooth module 10, and a power storage module 5. More specifically, the music player module 4 is located on the side of the pillow core 1. By playing calming music, the music player module 4 induces relaxation and distraction. The sleep-inducing waves in the music will drive the human brain waves and induce sleep. Secondly, by setting the heating module 9, the blood circulation in the head and neck is accelerated, the neck stiffness is relieved, and sleep is promoted. At the same time, the heating function can promote the volatilization of solid essential oils 8 and increase the effect of aromatherapy.

[0029] In this embodiment, a pillowcase 6 is fitted onto the surface of the pillow core 1. A soft seat 2 is provided on the upper surface of the pillowcase 6. The seat 2 is tightly adhered to the surface of the pillowcase. The upper surface of the seat 2 is provided with multiple grooves 2a, and solid essential oil 8 is provided in the grooves 2a. A soft friction plate 3 is provided above the seat 2. The lower surface of the friction plate 3 is provided with multiple protrusions 3a. The upper surface of the friction plate 3 is tightly attached to the lower surface of the elastic layer 7. The edge of the elastic layer 7 is connected to the upper surface of the pillowcase 6. When the upper surface of the elastic layer 7 is subjected to force, the overall gravitational potential energy of the friction plate 3 increases. Since both the seat 2 and the friction plate 3 are made of soft materials, and the upper surface of the friction plate 3 is tightly attached to the lower surface of the elastic layer 7, relative sliding occurs between the friction plate 3 and the seat 2 under friction and compression. At the same time, the elastic layer 7 undergoes elastic tensile deformation.

[0030] In this embodiment, the overall shape formed by the pillow core 1, seat 2, and friction plate 3 conforms to the natural growth curve of the human body, providing good support for the head and neck and preventing cervical spine deformation and cervical spondylosis. Meanwhile, in use, because the pillow core 1 is made of slow-rebound memory foam material, while the seat 2 and friction plate 3 are both soft materials, the deformation and compression capacity of the pillow core 1 is stronger than that of the entire structure formed by the seat 2 and friction plate 3 when compressed. Therefore, in use, the entire structure formed by the seat 2 and friction plate 3 protrudes beyond the plane of the pillow core 1, further increasing the gravitational potential energy of the friction plate 3.

[0031] In this embodiment, in its natural state, each protrusion 3a is locked into the adjacent groove 2a, making the groove 2a closed. The surface of the protrusion 3a is in contact with the surface of the solid essential oil 8. When the device is not in use, the closed state of the groove 2a slows down the evaporation of the solid essential oil 8 located in the groove 2a, thus extending the service life of the aromatherapy. At the same time, in the use state, the seat 2 and the friction plate 3 slide relative to each other under friction and compression, changing the closed state of the groove 2a, which is conducive to the evaporation of the solid essential oil 8. The protrusion 3a in contact with the surface of the solid essential oil 8 slides relative to the groove 2a, increasing the extensibility of the solid essential oil 8 attached to the surface of the protrusion 3a, which is also conducive to the evaporation of the solid essential oil 8.

[0032] In this embodiment, when in use, the seat 2 and the friction plate 3 form a whole located under the human body's pillow area. When the human body lies flat on this device, the lower part of the human body's pillow tends to descend, which facilitates the relative sliding of the seat 2 and the friction plate 3.

[0033] This embodiment uses a sleep-aid pillow designed to conform to the natural growth pattern of the human body. The protrusion 3a is inserted into the adjacent groove 2a, sealing the groove 2a. The surface of the protrusion 3a contacts the solid essential oil 8, hindering its evaporation. In use, the seat 2 and friction plate 3 form a whole located under the pillow, facilitating relative sliding between them. Alternatively, if difficulty falling asleep causes a change in the gravitational potential energy of the friction plate 3, the sliding friction between the friction plate 3 and the seat 2 increases, causing the protrusion 3a to slide relative to the groove 2a. Simultaneously, the elastic layer 7 undergoes elastic stretching deformation, altering the sealed state of the groove 2a and increasing the contact between the solid essential oil 8 and air within the groove 2a. The protrusion 3a, in contact with the surface of the solid essential oil 8, slides relative to the groove 2a, increasing the extensibility of the solid essential oil 8 adhering to its surface and further facilitating its evaporation. The combined effect of friction and heating module 9 increases the volatilization of solid essential oil 8 and extends the lifespan of aromatherapy. This invention integrates sleep-aiding functions such as hot compress, audio, and aromatherapy, effectively improving insomnia caused by stress and anxiety.

[0034] In this embodiment, the music player module 4 and the heating module 9 are both connected to the Bluetooth module 10 and the power storage module 5. Specifically, the music player module 4 and the heating module 9 are connected to the Bluetooth module 10 and the power storage module 5 through the wire 11.

[0035] In this embodiment, the audio stimulation system of the music player module 4 is a BBT binaural beat system. The BBT binaural beat system achieves brainwave synchronization through the difference in frequency of the two beats, thereby acting on the sleep control center in a targeted manner and inducing the human body to quickly enter a deep sleep state.

[0036] In this embodiment, the solid essential oil 8 contains one or more of lavender essential oil, cassia seed essential oil, and chrysanthemum essential oil. The melting point of the solid essential oil 8 is in the range of 50 to 60 degrees Celsius. In this embodiment, the heating module 9 is a constant temperature heating module 9, which can be controlled within the range of 40 to 50 degrees Celsius. The melting point range of the solid essential oil 8 can avoid the solid essential oil 8 from melting due to the heating effect of the heating module 9, thus avoiding waste of the solid essential oil 8.

[0037] In this embodiment, the power storage module 5 realizes the charging function through the USB power interface 5a, which protrudes from the surface of the pillowcase 6.

[0038] In this embodiment, the pillow core 1 is made of high-density, high-resilience polyurethane material, and the seat body 2 and friction plate 3 are made of soft silicone material, which has good comfort and support effect. When compressed, the deformation and compression capacity of the pillow core 1 is stronger than that of the seat body 2 and friction plate 3 as a whole. Therefore, in the use state, the whole formed by the seat body 2 and friction plate 3 protrudes from the plane of the pillow core 1, further increasing the gravitational potential energy of the friction plate 3.

[0039] In this embodiment, the heating module 9 is located below the seat 2, and can apply heat to acupoints such as Fengchi, Fengfu and Anmian in the occipital region to promote sleep.

[0040] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0041] S1 Natural state: The protrusion 3a is inserted into the adjacent groove 2a to seal the groove 2a. The surface of the protrusion 3a is in contact with the solid essential oil 8, which prevents the solid essential oil 8 from evaporating.

[0042] S2 Usage: The heating module 9 and music player module 4 are controlled via Bluetooth module 10 to maintain a constant temperature of 45 degrees Celsius. The music player module 4's BBT dual-beat system plays audio at specific frequencies. The seat 2 and friction plate 3 form a unit located under the human pillow. Since both the seat 2 and friction plate 3 are made of soft materials, and the upper surface of the friction plate 3 is tightly attached to the lower surface of the elastic layer 7, the lower part of the human pillow tends to descend, while the elastic layer 7 undergoes elastic stretching deformation. When the human lies flat on this device or experiences difficulty falling asleep, the gravitational potential energy of the friction plate 3 changes, increasing the sliding friction between the protrusions 3a and the grooves 2a on the surface of the solid essential oil 8. This facilitates relative sliding between the seat 2 and the friction plate 3, altering the closed state of the groove 2a and increasing the contact between the solid essential oil 8 within the groove 2a and the air. This increases the extensibility of the solid essential oil 8 adhering to the surface of the protrusions 3a, and under the action of the heating module 9, further promotes the volatilization of the solid essential oil 8.

[0043] S3 End State: As the gravitational potential energy of the friction plate 3 in this embodiment returns to its natural state, the elastic layer 7, which is in elastic tensile deformation, rebounds. After the friction plate 3 returns to its natural state, the protrusion 3a is inserted into the adjacent groove 2a to seal the groove 2a, thereby hindering the volatilization of the solid essential oil 8 and increasing the service life of the solid essential oil 8.
