Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bedding, specifically to a pillow. Background Technology
[0002] The existing pillow includes a pillow body, a control box, and a head-mounted sensor. The pillow body provides comfortable support for the user's head, while the head-mounted sensor, worn on the user's head, transmits collected information to the control box. This information allows the control box to control corresponding functional components to perform specific functions for the user. The head-mounted sensor requires a charging assembly, which includes a charging connector on the sensor and a charging interface for connecting to an external power source. The charging connector is prone to detaching from the charging interface, leading to charging failures and affecting charging reliability. Furthermore, an additional charger with a charging interface is required, which is susceptible to loss or concealment, impacting the user experience. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a pillow with a detachable charging cable. A central box for charging a head-mounted sensor is set on the pillow body. The central box charges the head-mounted sensor through the charging cable. This ensures that the head-mounted sensor can be offset relative to the central box and maintain connection through the charging cable, ensuring charging stability. It also eliminates the need for a separate charger, simplifying the structure and improving the user experience.
[0004] This invention is achieved through the following method: a pillow with a detachable charging cable, comprising a pillow body and a control box and a head-mounted sensor externally mounted on the pillow body. A central box connected to the control box is located at the rear edge of the pillow body. The central box and the head-mounted sensor are respectively provided with a charging interface and a power receiving interface. The charging interface and the power receiving interface are connected by a pluggable and detachable charging cable, allowing the head-mounted sensor to obtain external power. By setting a central box on the pillow body to charge the head-mounted sensor, and the central box charging the head-mounted sensor via the charging cable, this invention ensures that the head-mounted sensor can be offset relative to the central box using the flexible charging cable, ensuring charging stability and reliability, preventing circuit disconnection due to the head-mounted sensor deviating from the preset charging position under force, and eliminating the need for a separate charger, thus simplifying the structure and improving the user experience.
[0005] Preferably, the central hub is exposed at the center of the rear edge of the pillow body, and the charging interface is located on the top surface of the central hub. The exposed central hub facilitates the connection of the charging cable end to the charging interface. Positioning the central hub at the center of the rear edge of the pillow body effectively avoids the user's head, preventing the user from experiencing a foreign body sensation due to pressure on the central hub.
[0006] Preferably, the control box is connected to the central box via a conduit, allowing the control box to charge the head-mounted sensor through the central box. The conduit contains wires for power or signal conduction and air tubes for airflow delivery. The control box is connected to the central box via a conduit formed by the wires and air tubes. The central box distributes the wires and air tubes within the conduit and connects them to corresponding targets.
[0007] Preferably, the head-mounted sensor includes a headband and a sensing element disposed in the middle of the headband, with the power receiving interface located on the bottom surface of the sensing element. The headband can be wrapped around the user's head for secure fixation, ensuring a tight fit between the sensing element and the user's head surface. This prevents the head-mounted sensor from falling off and effectively improves detection accuracy. The power receiving interface on the bottom surface of the sensing element facilitates connection between the sensing element and the end of a charging cable.
[0008] Preferably, the inner wall of the sensing part is provided with sensing contacts. The sensing contacts are in close contact with the user's scalp to collect signals and improve data accuracy.
[0009] Preferably, the two ends of the headband are fixed by a connecting component to form a loop structure that can be fitted onto the target object, so that the sensing part fits tightly against the target object. The two ends of the headband can be fixed together by buckles or Velcro to form a loop, and the length of the headband when forming a loop is adjustable, thereby meeting the usage needs of different users and ensuring that the sensing part fits tightly against the surface of the user's head.
[0010] Preferably, the charging interface and the power receiving interface have the same structure, so that both the charging interface and the power receiving interface can be plugged into either end of the charging cable for electrical connection. Either port of the charging cable can be plugged into either the charging interface or the power receiving interface, facilitating the assembly and disassembly of the charging cable.
[0011] Preferably, the charging interface is a Type-C interface or a USB interface, both of which are universal interfaces, making them convenient to process and use, and also convenient to obtain a replacement cable if the charging cable is lost.
[0012] Preferably, a long, narrow storage pocket is provided on one side of the bottom rear edge of the pillow body, in which the charging cable can be folded and stored. The storage pocket is used to store the charging cable after disassembly, preventing it from being lost. The storage pocket is located on the side of the rear edge of the pillow body, avoiding the user's head and the central box, while also facilitating easy access.
[0013] Preferably, the storage bag has an opening that can be opened and closed for taking out and putting in the charging cable. This not only makes it convenient to take out and put in the charging cable, but also prevents the charging cable from coming out of the storage bag by closing the opening, thus preventing the charging cable from being lost.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: A central box for charging a head-mounted sensor is set on the pillow body. The central box charges the head-mounted sensor through a charging cable. This ensures that the head-mounted sensor can be offset relative to the central box using the flexible charging cable, and ensures charging stability and reliability. It also prevents the head-mounted sensor from disconnecting its circuit due to force deviating from the preset charging position. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for a separate charger, simplifies the structure, and improves the user experience. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The essential features of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0020] like Figure 1 and 2 The pillow shown includes a pillow body 1, a control box 2, and a head-mounted sensor 3 externally mounted on the pillow body 1. A central box 4 connected to the control box 2 is located at the rear edge of the pillow body 1. The central box 4 and the head-mounted sensor 3 are respectively provided with a charging interface 5 and a power receiving interface 6. The charging interface 5 and the power receiving interface 6 are connected by a pluggable and detachable charging cable 7, allowing the head-mounted sensor 3 to obtain external power. By providing a central box 4 on the pillow body 1 to charge the head-mounted sensor 3, and by charging the head-mounted sensor 3 via the charging cable 7, the pillow body 1 can ensure that the head-mounted sensor 3 can be offset relative to the central box 4 using the flexible charging cable 7, ensuring charging stability and reliability, preventing circuit disconnection due to the head-mounted sensor 3 deviating from its preset charging position under force. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for a separate charger, simplifying the structure and improving the user experience.
[0021] In actual operation, the head-mounted sensor 3 is equipped with a rechargeable battery, which stores electrical energy to ensure the normal operation of the sensing unit 9. When the user wears the head-mounted sensor 3, the sensing unit 9 fits tightly against the user's head surface through the sensing contacts 10 to collect brainwave signals and transmit them wirelessly to the control box 2. When the head-mounted sensor 3 is finished using and needs to be charged, the charging cable 7 is taken out of the storage bag. The two ends of the charging cable 7 are inserted and connected to the charging interface 5 and the power receiving interface 6, respectively. The power in the control box 2 is input to the head-mounted sensor 3 through the central box 4 and the charging cable 7 to charge the battery.
[0022] In actual operation, the central box 4 is exposed at the middle of the rear edge of the pillow body 1, the charging interface 5 is located on the top surface of the central box 4, and the power receiving interface 6 is located on the bottom surface of the sensing part 9. The head-mounted sensor 3 is placed on the side of the pillow body 1 and connected through the charging cable 7. There are no specific requirements for the placement and posture of the head-mounted sensor 3, ensuring stable charging operation.
[0023] In actual operation, the control box 2 is connected to the central box 4 via a conduit, allowing the control box 2 to charge the head-mounted sensor 3 through the central box 4. The central box 4 acts as a charger, receiving power from the control box 2 through the conduit and supplying power to the head-mounted sensor 3 via the charging cable 7. Furthermore, the central box 4 is also connected to the functional components and sensing components mounted on the pillow, ensuring that the control box 2 can connect to and cooperate with these components.
[0024] In actual operation, the head-mounted sensor 3 includes a headband 8 and a sensing unit 9 disposed in the middle of the headband 8, with the charging interface 5 disposed on the bottom surface of the sensing unit 9. Sensing contacts 10 are provided on the inner wall of the sensing unit 9. The two ends of the headband 8 are fixed by connecting components to form a loop structure that can be fitted onto a target object, ensuring a tight fit between the sensing unit 9 and the target object. When worn, the user places the sensing unit 9 against a preset area on their head, and then connects and positions the two ends of the headband 8 using the connecting components, ensuring the headband 8 is wrapped around the head and that the sensing contacts 10 are in contact with the preset area. This allows for continuous and accurate detection of the user's electroencephalogram (EEG) signals using the sensing contacts 10.
[0025] In actual operation, the charging interface 5 and the power receiving interface 6 have the same structure, so that both the charging interface 5 and the power receiving interface 6 can be plugged into and connected to either end of the charging cable 7 without distinguishing the ends of the charging cable 7, which facilitates the connection and installation of the charging cable 7 and improves assembly efficiency.
[0026] In actual operation, the charging interface 5 is a Type-C interface. In addition, the charging interface 5 can also be a USB interface, both of which should be regarded as specific embodiments of this utility model.
[0027] In actual operation, a long strip-shaped receiving bag 11 is provided on one side of the bottom rear edge of the pillow body 1 (e.g., Figure 3 As shown, the charging cable 7 can be folded and stored in the storage bag 11. The storage bag 11 is elongated and restrains the folded charging cable 7, ensuring that the charging cable 7 can be stored in a folded position and protecting it. The storage bag 11 has an opening for the charging cable 7 to be placed in and removed, which can be opened and closed. The opening preferably uses a zipper or buckle to ensure that the opening can be closed, thus wrapping and restraining the charging cable 7. The opening is positioned facing backward to hide it and improve the aesthetics of the pillow.
