Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Current pillows consist of a pillow body and a pillowcase that covers it. The pillow body provides comfortable support for the user's neck and head, while the pillowcase covers the pillow body, making it easy to remove and wash, and also matching bedding for a good aesthetic appeal. However, current pillows are functionally limited; besides providing comfortable support, they offer no other auxiliary functions. When users experience difficulties falling asleep or snoring during the preparation for sleep or during the sleep phase, the pillow cannot provide corresponding solutions, leading to a poor sleep experience and affecting sleep quality. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a pillow with a comfort system. The comfort system includes a sensing component, a control box, and functional components. The control box collects signals through the sensing component and operates through the functional components. By triggering the sensing component or manually controlling the functional components, the user can perform comfort operations, improve user comfort, and thus enhance the sleep experience.

[0004] This invention is achieved through the following method: a pillow with a comfort system, comprising a pillow body and a pillowcase covering the pillow body. The pillow body is equipped with a comfort system, which includes a control box externally mounted on the pillow body and a sensing component and a functional component disposed within the pillowcase. The control box is connected to the sensing component and the functional component via a central box, enabling the control box to collect signals through the sensing component and trigger the operation of the functional component. The comfort system, comprising a sensing component, a control box, and functional components, is installed inside the pillow. The control box collects signals through the sensing component and operates through the functional component. By triggering the sensing component or manually controlling the functional component, the user can perform comfort operations, improving user comfort and thus enhancing the sleep experience. The sensing component is used to collect signals related to the user, providing a basis for the control box to drive the operation of the functional component. Furthermore, the user can directly control the operation of the functional component through the control box.

[0005] Preferably, a lower functional pad is provided beneath the pillow body, and the central box is located at the center of the rear edge of the lower functional pad and connects to the control box via a connecting tube passing through the pillowcase. The lower functional pad, placed beneath the pillow body, effectively integrates functional and sensing components, facilitating disassembly and maintenance. It also utilizes the pillow body to eliminate any foreign body sensation, minimizing its impact on pillow comfort. The control box connects to the functional and sensing components via the central box, which transmits data, power, and airflow. Only one exposed connecting tube connects the central box and the control box, simplifying piping, facilitating assembly, and improving aesthetics.

[0006] Preferably, the connecting pipe includes wires for transmitting electrical energy or signals, providing electrical energy to the functional components and sensing components and transmitting signals.

[0007] Preferably, the connecting tube includes an air tube for conveying airflow and for adjusting the air pressure inside the square bladder and the annular bladder, thereby achieving the corresponding functions by inflating and deflating the air.

[0008] Preferably, the functional components include speakers located on both sides of the rear of the lower functional pad. These speakers can play audio to aid sleep, provide entertainment, and wake the user. The two speakers, positioned on either side of the rear of the lower functional pad, avoid the central area of ​​the pillow, reducing the likelihood of the user pressing on it and effectively eliminating any foreign body sensation. They also effectively reduce the distance from the user's ears, minimizing energy loss during sound wave transmission and thus lowering the speaker volume.

[0009] Preferably, the functional component includes a stretching airbag disposed at the front of the lower functional pad. The stretching airbag comprises two adjacent and symmetrically arranged airbag groups, each containing at least two vertically stacked and connected square airbags. The square airbags within each airbag group are bonded together by their edges located along the centerline of the stretching airbag, allowing each airbag group to switch between a flat, idle state and a fan-shaped, raised state. The stretching airbag can switch between the idle and raised states by inflating and deflating, adjusting the contour of the top surface of the pillow, thereby prompting the user's head to shift and turn, thus stopping snoring and effectively improving sleep quality. When the control box detects snoring through a sensor component, it can activate the stretching airbag to change the user's posture, thereby stopping snoring.

[0010] Preferably, the top surface of the pillow is covered with an upper functional pad. The functional component includes a massage airbag located in the center of the upper functional pad. The massage airbag comprises several concentrically nested annular bladders. These annular bladders rise and fall with inflation and deflation, creating an upward massage stimulation. The upper functional pad, placed on the top surface of the pillow, rises and falls vertically with inflation and deflation, thus creating an upward pressing force. This pressing force is applied to the user's head surface, providing massage stimulation and relaxation. The annular bladders have different diameters, allowing them to be nested concentrically and adjacently. This not only positions the head, preventing displacement due to localized force and ensuring a continuous and stable application of massage stimulation to the head surface, but also synchronously applies force to the annular areas of equal height on the head surface, enhancing massage comfort. In addition to its massage function, the massage airbags can also adjust the user's head orientation under the control of a control box, thereby helping to stop snoring.

[0011] Preferably, the sensing component includes a sleeping posture sensing strip disposed at the front edge of the lower functional pad. The sleeping posture sensing strip is of the same length as the front edge of the pillow body and protrudes from the front edge of the pillow body. The vertical projections of the sleeping posture sensing strip and the pillow body are offset from each other. The sleeping posture sensing strip protrudes from the front of the pillow body to facilitate contact with the user's shoulders, and the size of the pressed area is used to obtain the user's sleeping posture information. When the user lies flat, both shoulders are in contact with the sleeping posture sensing strip; when the user lies on their side, only one shoulder is in contact with the sleeping posture sensing strip.

[0012] Preferably, the sensing component includes a sleep sensing band disposed at the front of the lower functional pad. The sleep sensing band is used to collect the user's physiological data, including but not limited to heart rate and respiratory rate.

[0013] Preferably, the sensing component includes a brainwave sensing fabric disposed on the top surface of the pillowcase. This brainwave sensing fabric includes sensing threads woven into the top surface of the pillowcase, allowing it to deform under pressure and conform to the surface of the object being detected. The brainwave sensing fabric, disposed on the top surface of the pillowcase, can deform under pressure, ensuring a close fit to the user's head surface and improving the accuracy of brainwave acquisition. It also effectively reduces the feeling of a foreign object, minimizing its impact on sleep comfort. The sensing threads are woven into the pillowcase fabric, effectively concealing them and improving positioning, ensuring that the sensing threads are equidistant and do not shift under pressure.

[0014] Preferably, both the lower and upper functional pads are felt pads, which have suitable softness and hardness as well as good structural strength, serving to position the sensing and functional components. The lower and upper functional pads are edge-sealed to prevent edge fraying, ensuring clean edges and extending their service life.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: A comfort system is set inside the pillow. The comfort system includes a sensing component, a control box, and a functional component. The control box collects signals through the sensing component and operates through the functional component. By triggering the sensing component or manually controlling the operation of the functional component, the user can perform comfort operations, improve the comfort of use, and thus enhance the sleep experience.

[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 A pillow with a comfort system is shown, comprising a pillow body 1 and a pillowcase 2 covering the pillow body 1. The comfort system is installed on the pillow body 1, and includes a control box 3 externally mounted on the pillow body 1 and a sensing component and a functional component disposed within the pillowcase 2. The control box 3 is connected to the sensing component and the functional component via a central box 4, enabling the control box 3 to collect signals through the sensing component and trigger the operation of the functional component. By incorporating a comfort system within the pillow, including the sensing component, control box 3, and functional component, the control box 3 collects signals through the sensing component and operates through the functional component. By triggering the sensing component or manually controlling the functional component, the user can perform comfort operations, improving comfort and ultimately enhancing the sleep experience.

[0021] In actual operation, the comfort system includes a control box 3, a sensing component, and functional components. The control box 3 is located outside the pillow body 1, facilitating connection to an external power source and allowing for manual control by the user. It also effectively reduces the impact of vibrations and noise generated by the internal components of the control box 3 on the user's sleep. The sensing component collects various user-related data and provides a reference for the control box 3 to control the operation of the functional components. The functional components can operate according to the user's needs, providing corresponding functions.

[0022] In actual operation, the control box 3 can control the start and stop of the functional components according to the triggering of the sensing components, thereby providing passive protection for the user. It can also directly receive the user's instructions and activate the corresponding functions, providing active protection for the user. Both of these should be regarded as specific embodiments of this utility model.

[0023] In actual operation, the pillow includes a lower functional pad 5 located below the pillow body 1 and an upper functional pad 9 located above the pillow body 1. This provides installation positions for the sensing components and functional components, facilitating disassembly and maintenance. It also ensures that the pillow body 1 is set independently without the need for pre-processing the installation structure, making it convenient to add or modify the existing pillow body 1.

[0024] In actual operation, the central box 4 is located at the middle of the rear edge of the lower functional pad 5 and connects to the control box 3 after passing through the pillowcase 2 via the connecting tube 6. The central box 4 can be independently connected to the sensing components and functional components, or it can gather and converge the pipelines to form the connecting tube 6 before connecting to the control box 3. The central box 4 is located at the middle of the rear edge of the lower functional pad 5, which ensures a short distance between the central box 4 and the sensing components, and between the central box 4 and the functional components, facilitating wiring. It also utilizes the deformation of the bottom of the pad to conceal the pad, thereby preventing it from being squeezed by the user and reducing the feeling of foreign objects.

[0025] In practical operation, the connecting pipe 6 includes wires for transmitting electrical energy or signals and air tubes for delivering airflow. The type and quantity of wires within the connecting pipe 6 are matched and set according to the specific component types within the sensing and functional components, ensuring both wiring safety and ease of assembly and use. Specifically, electrical appliances require wires to facilitate the transmission of power and signals; bladder-type devices require air tubes to achieve corresponding functions through inflation and deflation; and fragrance devices require air tubes to deliver gases containing scent components.

[0026] In actual operation, the functional components include speakers 7 located on both sides of the rear of the lower functional pad 5, a stretching airbag 8 located at the front of the lower functional pad 5, and a massage airbag 10 located in the middle of the upper functional pad 9. The functional components can be added or removed according to the user's needs, and all of these should be considered as specific embodiments of this utility model.

[0027] In actual operation, there are two speakers 7, which are placed on the rear sides of the lower functional pad 5. This not only effectively avoids the user's head, but also shortens the distance between the speaker and the user's ears, thus meeting the user's listening needs with a smaller volume.

[0028] In actual operation, the stretching airbag 8 includes two adjacent and symmetrically arranged airbag groups. Each airbag group contains at least two vertically stacked and connected square airbags. The square airbags in each airbag group are connected and fixed by the edges located at the center line of the stretching airbag 8, so that each airbag group can switch between a flat, idle state and a fan-shaped raised state. The two airbag groups are located at the center of the front edge of the lower functional pad 5 and are symmetrically arranged with respect to the front-back center line of the pillow body 1. The air pressure in each airbag group can be adjusted independently. The square airbags in the same airbag group are interconnected, so that each airbag group can switch to a raised state by inflation to change the top surface contour of the pillow body 1, thereby driving the user's head to turn or shift, thereby eliminating the pressure on the user's airway and achieving the effect of anti-snoring.

[0029] In actual operation, the massage airbag 10 includes several concentrically nested annular bags. These annular bags rise and fall by inflating and deflating to create an upward massage stimulation. When the user is in a lying position, the bottom of the user's head is spherically shaped. The concentrically nested annular bags can effectively support the annular area at the same height around the bottom of the head and apply massage stimulation through the rising and falling motion, thereby improving massage comfort and effectively preventing the head from deviating from the massage airbag 10.

[0030] In this embodiment, the upper functional pad 9 completely covers the top surface of the pillow body 1, and the two have the same outline, preventing the edge of the upper functional pad 9 from creating a foreign object sensation for the user due to its location in the middle of the top surface of the pillow body 1. The vertical projection of the pillow body 1 falls completely on the lower functional pad 5. Both the lower functional pad 5 and the upper functional pad 9 are felt pads with sealed edges, which facilitates processing, effectively controls costs, provides suitable softness and firmness, and has good breathability, thus improving the user experience.

[0031] In this embodiment, the sensing components include a sleeping posture sensing strip 11 disposed at the front edge of the lower functional pad 5, a sleep sensing strip 12 disposed at the front of the lower functional pad 5, and a brainwave sensing fabric 13 disposed on the top surface of the pillowcase 2. The sensing components can be added or removed according to the user's needs, and all of these should be considered as specific embodiments of this utility model.

[0032] In this embodiment, the sleeping posture sensing band 11 is set to the same length as the front edge of the pillow body 1, and the sleeping posture sensing band 11 is exposed outside the front edge of the pillow body 1. The sleeping posture sensing band 11 is used to detect the user's sleeping posture, thereby providing corresponding information to the control box 3. The sleeping posture sensing band 11 is located at the front edge of the lower functional pad 5 and is exposed in front of the pillow body 1. When the user lies down, their shoulders can directly press on the sleeping posture sensing band 11, effectively improving the detection accuracy.

[0033] In this embodiment, the sleep sensor band 12 can be used to monitor the user's heart rate and respiratory rate, providing corresponding information to the control box 3. The position of the sleep sensor band 12 coincides with the position of the stretch airbag 8. Preferably, the sleep sensor band 12 is positioned below the stretch airbag 8 to ensure that the sleep sensor band 12 always remains flat, thereby improving the reliability of detection.

[0034] In this embodiment, the brainwave sensing fabric 13 includes sensing lines woven into the top surface of the pillowcase 2, allowing the fabric to deform under force and conform to the surface of the object being detected. The brainwave sensing fabric 13 contacts the user and receives EEG signals through the sensing lines woven into the top surface of the pillowcase 2. Because the sensing lines are woven into the top surface of the pillowcase 2, the fabric 13 can deform freely and conform to the head surface, effectively improving detection accuracy and eliminating the feeling of foreign objects, thus enhancing contact comfort. Preferably, the brainwave sensing fabric 13 completely covers the top surface of the pillowcase 2, ensuring that the user's head remains in contact with the sensing lines even after shifting or turning, ensuring continuous and accurate data acquisition. Furthermore, the brainwave sensing fabric 13 can also be placed only in the middle of the top surface of the pillowcase 2, effectively reducing costs while ensuring a high probability of collecting corresponding information; this should also be considered a specific embodiment of this utility model.

[0035] In actual operation, the upper functional pad 9, the pillow body 1, and the lower functional pad 5 are neatly stacked from top to bottom and tightly wrapped by the pillowcase 2 (e.g., Figure 2 As shown in the figure, it serves as a locking and positioning device.
