Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bedding, specifically to a pillow. Background Technology

[0002] Existing pillows consist of a pillow body, a brainwave detection component, and a control box. The brainwave detection component fits snugly against the user's head, and the control box collects the user's brainwave signals through the component to provide a reference for subsequent function control, thereby improving the user's sleep experience. Current brainwave detection components are all wearable, typically consisting of a headband and sensors mounted on it. Users fasten the headband to their heads and ensure the sensors are in contact with their scalp when falling asleep. This requires users to put on and take off the pillow, which is inconvenient and can cause discomfort, affecting sleep quality. Furthermore, when the head rolls over, the sensors may be compressed, leading to localized pressure and injury, compromising safety. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a pillow with a support groove. The brainwave detection component includes an electrode pad disposed within the support groove. The user's head is embedded in the support groove and fits tightly against the electrode pad. This ensures that the control box can accurately collect the user's brainwave signals through the electrode pad. The support groove also limits the position of the head, preventing the head from dislodging from the electrode pad due to displacement. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for donning and doffing operations, thus improving user comfort.

[0004] This invention is achieved through the following method: a pillow with a support groove, comprising a pillow body, a brainwave detection component, and a control box. The top surface of the pillow body has a support groove. The brainwave detection component includes electrode pads hidden within the support groove. The electrode pads match and adhere to the detection object embedded in the support groove and transmit brainwave signals to the control box. The brainwave detection component includes electrode pads disposed within the support groove. When the user's head is embedded in the support groove and closely fitted with the electrode pads, this ensures that the control box can accurately collect the user's brainwave signals through the electrode pads. The support groove also limits the position of the head, preventing the head from dislodging from the electrode pads due to displacement. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for donning and doffing, effectively reducing the feeling of foreign objects and improving user comfort.

[0005] Preferably, the support groove is formed by a downward indentation in the center of the top surface of the pillow body. The object to be tested rests on the top surface of the pillow body from top to bottom and is embedded in the support groove, so that the electrode pads are in close contact with the surface of the object to be tested. The support groove not only supports the user's head but also acts as a horizontal limiter, using the head's own weight to prevent it from shifting and ensuring that the head surface can be in close contact with the electrode pads.

[0006] Preferably, the electrode pads are multiple and dispersed in the central area of ​​the support groove. The dispersed arrangement of the electrode pads within the support groove allows for contact with the dispersed electrode pads even when the head shifts slightly, ensuring continuous signal acquisition while also allowing for appropriate head movement, thus improving the user experience.

[0007] Preferably, the support groove is cross-shaped, including intersecting horizontal and vertical grooves. The electrode pads are distributed within the horizontal and vertical grooves and connected to the control box via signal lines. The horizontal and vertical grooves converge at the center of the top surface of the pillow body, forming the main area for head placement, effectively improving the head's locking and limiting effect, and also enhancing support comfort. The electrode pads are positioned within the horizontal and vertical grooves, ensuring that the head can conform to the electrode pads under the limiting effect of the support groove, and also concealing and protecting the electrode pads. The control box is connected to each electrode pad via signal lines to ensure reliable signal transmission.

[0008] Preferably, the electrode pads include brain patches evenly spaced along the middle section of the horizontal groove and neck patches disposed on both sides of the front section of the vertical groove. The brain patches are fitted to the back of the user's head, and the neck patches are fitted to the neck area. The positions of the brain patches and neck patches match the corresponding areas of the human body, ensuring that the brain patches and neck patches can simultaneously fit the corresponding areas, thereby improving signal acquisition accuracy by increasing fit and conformity.

[0009] Preferably, the brain patches are symmetrically arranged in the middle section of the transverse groove, which increases the number of contact points with the back of the head and reduces costs by limiting the number of brain patches. The brain patches are distributed along the middle section of the transverse groove and deform synchronously when the groove is pressed, ensuring that the brain patches can fit tightly with the left, middle, and right sides of the back of the head, respectively.

[0010] Preferably, the neck patches are symmetrically placed on both sides of the front section of the vertical groove. With the neck patches placed in pairs on the side walls of the front section of the vertical groove, the user's neck will be pressed against the front section of the vertical groove, allowing the neck patches to fit tightly against the sides of the neck.

[0011] Preferably, the signal line includes a main line laid along the rear section of the vertical groove and secondary lines connected to each electrode plate. The secondary lines are multiple and connected in series with each electrode plate along the path. The control box is externally mounted on the pillow body, and the main line extending rearward detaches from the pillow body and connects to the control box. The main line is formed by the convergence of multiple secondary lines. The secondary lines connect each electrode plate along the path, and the main line connects the secondary lines and the control box. The main line is first laid along the rear section of the vertical groove and extends outward after detaching from the pillow body, connecting to the control box. A section of the main line can be hidden within the vertical groove, effectively eliminating the feeling of foreign objects.

[0012] Preferably, the vertical cross-sections of the horizontal and vertical grooves are both V-shaped, which can adjust the orientation of the electrode plates by using the inclined sidewalls, thus facilitating contact with the user's head surface, and also facilitates the concealment of the main line, effectively reducing the feeling of foreign objects.

[0013] Preferably, the pillow body and the brainwave detection component are completely enclosed by a pillowcase. The electrode pads are attached to the top surface of the pillow body and completely covered by the pillowcase, while the main cable passes through the pillowcase, is exposed, and connects to the control box. The pillowcase serves both to protect the pillow body and electrode pads and to provide decoration. The pillowcase is made of a thin, transparent material, which effectively reduces the impact on the electrode pads' acquisition of brainwave signals, thereby improving the reliability of data acquisition.

[0014] Preferably, the pillowcase has a through-hole in its top fabric, through which the electrode pads are exposed on the top surface of the pillowcase. With the electrode pads exposed through the through-hole, the other components of the brainwave detection assembly are hidden inside the pillowcase. This ensures that the electrode pads can effectively collect brainwave signals while also concealing and protecting the other components of the brainwave detection assembly.

[0015] Preferably, the electrode sheet is fixed to the pillowcase via a fabric sheet. The electrode sheet is adhered to the center of the top surface of the fabric sheet, and the periphery of the fabric sheet is sewn and fixed to the periphery of the through-hole, allowing the electrode sheet to be exposed through the through-hole. The vertical projection of the electrode sheet coincides with the central area of ​​the corresponding fabric sheet, causing the periphery of the fabric sheet to be exposed beyond the edge of the electrode sheet. The outline of the through-hole matches the outline of the electrode sheet. This design not only allows the fabric sheet to be firmly connected to the electrode sheet through the center, preventing the electrode sheet from shifting, but also provides a positioning function by overlapping and sewing the periphery of the fabric sheet with the periphery of the through-hole, ensuring that the electrode sheet is completely exposed through the through-hole.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The brainwave detection component includes an electrode pad set in a support groove. The user's head is embedded in the support groove and fits tightly with the electrode pad. This ensures that the control box can accurately collect the user's brainwave signals through the electrode pad. The support groove also limits the head and prevents the head from dislodging from the electrode pad due to displacement. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for donning and doffing operations and effectively eliminates the feeling of foreign objects, thus improving user comfort. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The essential features of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] Example 1:

[0025] This embodiment provides a pillow.

[0026] like Figure 1 and 2 The pillow shown includes a pillow body 1, a brainwave detection component, and a control box 2. The top surface of the pillow body 1 has a support groove. The brainwave detection component includes electrode pads hidden within the support groove. The electrode pads match and adhere to the detection object embedded in the support groove and transmit brainwave signals to the control box 2. The brainwave detection component includes electrode pads set within the support groove. When the user's head is embedded in the support groove and closely fitted with the electrode pads, it ensures that the control box 2 can accurately collect the user's brainwave signals through the electrode pads. The support groove also limits the position of the head, preventing the head from dislodging from the electrode pads due to displacement. This eliminates the need for donning and doffing, effectively reducing the feeling of a foreign object and improving user comfort.

[0027] In practice, the support groove is formed by a downward indentation in the center of the top surface of the pillow body 1. The object to be tested rests on the top surface of the pillow body 1 from top to bottom and is embedded in the support groove, so that the electrode pads are in close contact with the surface of the object. When the user lies down, the head rests on the top surface of the pillow body 1 from top to bottom, and the bottom surface of the head is embedded in the support groove. The support groove provides vertical support and horizontal restraint for the head. At this time, the weight of the head will drive it to fit tightly against the electrode pads, thereby improving the sensitivity of the electrode pads and ensuring the accuracy of the acquired brainwave data. Because the support groove restrains the head, it can also effectively limit head displacement after the user falls asleep, thereby ensuring that the head surface is always in contact with the electrode pads, ensuring the continuity and reliability of data acquisition.

[0028] In actual operation, the electrode sheet is a flexible sheet that can not only match and fit the surface of the pillow body 1, but also deform synchronously with the surface of the pillow body 1 and match and fit the surface of the head, reducing the feeling of foreign objects and effectively improving fit and comfort.

[0029] In practical operation, the support groove is cross-shaped, including intersecting horizontal grooves 3 and vertical grooves 4. This ensures that the support groove can utilize its central area to avoid the head, allowing the bottom surface of the head to embed into the support groove. Furthermore, the horizontal grooves 3 and vertical grooves 4 can conceal the electrode plate, ensuring a tight fit between the electrode plate and the head embedded in the support groove, thus improving reliability. In addition, the support groove can also be a spherical groove, a frustum-shaped groove, etc., all of which should be considered specific embodiments of this utility model.

[0030] In actual operation, the electrode plates are distributed within the horizontal grooves 3 and vertical grooves 4 and connected to the control box 2 via signal lines. The signal lines include a main line 7 laid along the rear section of the vertical groove 4 and secondary lines 8 connected to each electrode plate. Multiple secondary lines 8 are connected in series with each electrode plate along their path. The control box 2 is connected to each electrode plate via signal lines, effectively eliminating external interference and ensuring stable signal transmission. The control box 2 is externally mounted on the pillow body 1, and the main line 7 extending rearward detaches from the pillow body 1 and connects to the control box 2.

[0031] In actual operation, the electrode pads are dispersed in the central area of ​​the support groove. The electrode pads include brain patches 6 evenly spaced along the middle section of the transverse groove 3 and neck patches 5 disposed on both sides of the front section of the vertical groove 4. Specifically, there are three brain patches 6 symmetrically arranged in the middle section of the transverse groove 3, and four neck patches 5 symmetrically disposed on both sides of the front section of the vertical groove 4.

[0032] In actual operation, the vertical cross-sections of the horizontal groove 3 and the vertical groove 4 are both V-shaped. This allows the tilted sidewalls of the vertical groove 4 to adjust the orientation of the neck patch 5, thus facilitating its fit against the user's neck surface. It also makes it easier for the main line 7 to be laid and hidden in the rear section of the vertical groove 4, effectively reducing the feeling of foreign objects and improving lying comfort.

[0033] In actual operation, the pillow body 1 and the brainwave detection component are completely covered by the pillowcase 9 (e.g., Figure 3 (As shown). The electrode pads are attached to the top surface of the pillow body 1 and completely covered by the pillowcase 9. The main wire 7 passes through the pillowcase 9 and is exposed, connecting to the control box 2. The pillowcase 9 serves both to protect the pillow body 1 and the electrode pads and to provide decoration. The pillowcase 9 is made of a thin, transparent material, which effectively reduces the impact on the electrode pads' acquisition of brainwave signals, thereby improving the reliability of data acquisition.

[0034] Example 2:

[0035] Compared to Example 1, this example provides another type of pillow.

[0036] like Figure 4 and 5As shown, a through-hole 10 is formed in the top fabric of the pillowcase 10, through which the electrode pad is exposed on the top surface of the pillowcase 10. The electrode pad is exposed through the through-hole 10, while other components of the brainwave detection assembly are hidden inside the pillowcase 10. This ensures that the electrode pad can effectively collect brainwave signals and also conceals and protects the other components of the brainwave detection assembly. The electrode pad is fixed to the pillowcase 10 by a fabric piece 11. The electrode pad is adhered to the center of the top surface of the fabric piece 11, and the periphery of the fabric piece 11 is sewn and fixed to the periphery of the through-hole 10, allowing the electrode pad to be exposed through the through-hole 10. The vertical projection of the electrode sheet coincides with the central region of the corresponding fabric sheet 11, causing the periphery of the fabric sheet 11 to be exposed beyond the edge of the electrode sheet. The outline of the through hole 10 matches the outline of the electrode sheet. This not only allows the fabric sheet 11 to be firmly connected to the electrode sheet through the center, preventing the electrode sheet from shifting, but also allows the periphery of the fabric sheet 11 to be overlapped and sewn with the periphery of the through hole 10, thus positioning the electrode sheet and ensuring that the electrode sheet can be completely exposed through the through hole 10. The fabric sheet 11 is circular with a diameter larger than that of the electrode sheet, so that the periphery of the fabric sheet 11 is exposed beyond the electrode sheet and can be easily sewn and fixed to the periphery of the through hole 10.

[0037] The other structures and effects of the pillow described in this embodiment are the same as those in Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated here.
