Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pillow technology, specifically to a sleep-aiding pillow. Background Technology

[0002] A pillow is a bedding item that supports the head and neck. Its core function is to maintain the natural physiological curvature of the spine, especially the neck, during sleep or rest, thereby relaxing muscles, reducing pressure, and ensuring unobstructed airways to improve sleep quality. Pillows typically consist of two parts: a pillowcase and a pillow filling. The pillowcase, as a removable and washable outer layer, is often made of skin-friendly fabrics such as cotton or silk. The pillow filling, as the core filling layer, varies in material and function, including memory foam, down, buckwheat hulls, latex, and other types. Through combinations of different densities and elasticities, it provides differentiated support for the head and neck. In addition, some functional pillows may also include an adjustable height pad or incorporate special materials such as cooling gel to meet personalized sleep needs.

[0003] However, existing technologies still have significant shortcomings. Traditional pillows, as simple physical support tools, rely entirely on passive filling materials to provide static support. They cannot adjust to changes in sleep patterns to improve sleep, lack the ability to actively intervene in ambient light and noise, and users are easily awakened by external disturbances. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sleep aid pillow to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: This application provides a sleep aid pillow, including a pillow core. A guide module and a sound sensor are respectively provided on both sides inside the pillow core. A constant temperature module, a pressure sensor and a piezoelectric sensor are respectively provided inside the pillow core. An adapter board and a main board are respectively provided inside the pillow core, and the adapter board and the main board are connected to each other. The guide module, sound sensor, constant temperature module, pressure sensor and piezoelectric sensor are all electrically connected to the adapter board.

[0006] In one possible implementation, there are two sets of guidance modules and sound sensors, and the two sets of guidance modules and sound sensors are symmetrically distributed from left to right.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the guidance module consists of an oscillator audio and a light module. The oscillator audio uses bone conduction to transmit sound waves, which, together with the light module, simulates light to create a gentle environment. The two work together to complete sleep guidance.

[0008] In one possible implementation, the sound sensor is a sound recording component, and the main recorded data includes snoring, recording frequency, volume, and other data.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the thermostatic module is used for neck heating, and the thermostatic module can work in tandem with the oscillator audio in the guide module.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the pressure sensor is used to sense and record body movements during sleep, including actions such as moving or turning over.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the piezoelectric sensor dynamically monitors information including heartbeat, breathing, kicking, and snoring, and achieves imperceptible monitoring by sensing pressure changes and sound signals.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: The pillow integrates a sound sensor, a thermostatic module, a pressure sensor, a piezoelectric sensor, and a guidance module to form a cohesive sleep aid. The snoring data captured by the sound sensor triggers the guidance module to activate specific frequency sound waves for counteracting intervention. The pressure and piezoelectric sensors, primarily located on the user's head, monitor body movement, heart rate, and respiratory signals, working in tandem with the thermostatic module. When muscle tension or insufficient blood supply is detected, the module simultaneously activates oscillator audio vibration and neck thermostatic heating to synergistically promote blood circulation, thus promoting and improving sleep. Furthermore, all sensor data undergoes cross-validation to provide precise adjustment criteria for the audio-visual parameters of the guidance module, achieving comprehensive sleep intervention from physiological regulation to sensory guidance, significantly improving sleep onset efficiency and sleep quality.

[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0016] The terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature; in the description of this application, unless otherwise stated, "multiple" means two or more.

[0017] Example 1: refer to Figure 1-4 A sleep aid pillow provided in this application embodiment includes a pillow core 8, on which a guide module 1, a sound sensor 2, a constant temperature module 3, a pressure sensor 4, and a piezoelectric sensor 5 are respectively provided. The pillow core 8 is provided with an adapter plate 6 and a main board 7, and the adapter plate 6 and the main board 7 are interconnected. The guide module 1, the sound sensor 2, the constant temperature module 3, the pressure sensor 4, and the piezoelectric sensor 5 are all electrically connected to the adapter plate 6.

[0018] Specifically, the pillow has multiple built-in modules, including a guide module 1, a sound sensor 2, a constant temperature module 3, a pressure sensor 4, a piezoelectric sensor 5, an adapter board 6, and a main board 7. All of these components are located on the pillow core 8, which includes, but is not limited to, high and low pillows, flat pillows, butterfly pillows, etc. The adapter board 6 is fixed to the pillow and is positioned close to and connected to the main board 7. It is mainly used for protection to reduce safety hazards. Its integrated overvoltage protection circuit can automatically cut off high voltage surges when the power supply fluctuates, preventing the main board 7 and the sensors from burning out.

[0019] Preferably, the sound module, sound sensor 2, constant temperature module 3, pressure sensor 4, and piezoelectric sensor 5 are all electrically connected to the adapter board 6. The adapter board 6 is connected to the main board 7. These data are collected by the adapter board 6 and sent to the main board 7 for intelligent analysis. The main board 7 analyzes the user's sleep state according to the preset algorithm and adjusts each module. Finally, it can be controlled by the remote control. The user can directly set the mode or intervene in the adjustment through the remote control, thus forming a fully automatic and customizable multi-dimensional sleep aid solution.

[0020] In one possible implementation, a guide module 1 and a sound sensor 2 are respectively provided on both sides of the inside of the pillow core 8. There are two sets of guide modules 1 and sound sensors 2, and the two sets of guide modules 1 and sound sensors 2 are symmetrically distributed from left to right. Each guide module 1 is composed of a vibrator audio and a light module. The vibrator audio uses bone conduction to transmit sound waves and works with the light module to simulate light to create a gentle environment. The two work together to complete sleep guidance. The guide module 1 and the sound sensor 2 are mainly located on the sides of the pillow. When the user is using the headrest, the guide module 1 is located on both sides of the face. The light and sound module is composed of the vibrator audio module and the light module, which promotes or improves sleep.

[0021] Specifically, the oscillator audio module transmits soothing sound waves through bone conduction technology, which can effectively shield environmental noise without disturbing others. At the same time, the customized spectrum light module can simulate the warm light of sunset, gently inhibit melatonin and guide the user's physiological rhythm to transition to sleep. The two work together to create an immersive relaxation environment from the auditory and visual levels, effectively relieving anxiety and shortening the time to fall asleep, thereby significantly improving sleep quality and sleep efficiency.

[0022] In one possible implementation, the sound sensor 2 is a sound recording part, and the main data recorded includes snoring, recording frequency, volume and other data. The sound sensor 2 is specifically designed to capture snoring and record data such as frequency and volume for analyzing snoring. Some smart pillows use the sound sensor 2 to achieve snoring intervention function.

[0023] Specifically, it can capture and record key parameters such as the frequency, loudness, and duration of snoring sounds in real time, build a personalized snoring pattern database for users, and provide a data-driven basis for snoring intervention functions. Once a specific regular snoring signal is identified, the system can automatically link other modules in the pillow to achieve sleep intervention, thereby improving the user's own sleep breathing quality.

[0024] In one possible implementation, the pillow core 8 is internally equipped with a thermostatic module 3, a pressure sensor 4, and a piezoelectric sensor 5. The thermostatic module 3 is used for neck heating and can work in conjunction with the vibrator audio module in the guide module. The thermostatic module 3, pressure sensor 4, and piezoelectric sensor 5 are all arranged adjacent to each other at a position near the center of the pillow. When the user is lying flat, the thermostatic module 3 is positioned at the neck. The thermostatic module 3, in conjunction with the vibrator audio module in the light and sound module, can improve blood circulation in the neck, improve insufficient blood supply to the brain, promote or improve sleep, and maintain a comfortable neck area. The appropriate temperature effectively promotes local capillary dilation and blood circulation. Below the constant temperature module 3, there is also an independent oscillator audio module. The two work together to achieve deep physical therapy and nerve regulation of the neck soft tissue through the combined effect of thermotherapy and sound wave physical stimulation. The appropriate heat maintained by the constant temperature module 3 can promote neck blood vessel dilation and accelerate local blood circulation, creating the basic conditions for muscle relaxation. At the same time, the independent oscillator audio module below transmits mechanical energy directly to deep muscles and fascia through precise frequency sound wave vibration, further relieving muscle fiber tension and promoting lymphatic return.

[0025] Specifically, when this temperature-sensing effect works synergistically with the soothing vibrations generated by the oscillator audio module, it can further relax tense neck muscles and enhance blood flow, thereby significantly improving the efficiency of blood supply to the brain and alleviating sleep disorders caused by insufficient blood supply. Ultimately, by optimizing the physiological microenvironment, it helps users enter a deep sleep state more quickly.

[0026] In one possible implementation, the pressure sensor 4 is used to sense and record body movements during sleep, including movements such as moving or turning over. The pressure sensor 4 records body movements during sleep by sensing movements such as moving or turning over.

[0027] Specifically, for example, a smart anti-snoring pillow uses pressure sensor 4 to monitor changes in sleep posture in real time, accurately record body movement data to assess sleep stability and sleep stages, and provide a real-time posture benchmark for intervention functions such as anti-snoring. Once it detects a posture that is prone to snoring, such as lying on your back, the system can immediately trigger each module to make adaptive adjustments, improve breathing quality and enhance overall sleep continuity.

[0028] In one possible implementation, the piezoelectric sensor 5 dynamically monitors information including heartbeat, breathing, kicking, and snoring, and achieves imperceptible monitoring by sensing pressure changes and sound signals. Both the piezoelectric sensor 5 and the pressure sensor 4 are located on the user's head and mainly serve a monitoring function.

[0029] Specifically, for example, the smart pillow uses a flexible piezoelectric sensor 5 embedded in the pillow core 8, which can accurately capture dynamic changes during sleep. Simply put, the piezoelectric sensor 5 converts the tiny sound pressure and pressure fluctuations generated by heartbeat, breathing, body movement, and snoring during sleep into electrical signals, realizing contactless and unrestricted all-weather monitoring of physiological states. Its flexible material and deep integration with the pillow core 8 ensure zero interference in the detection process. It can not only accurately capture potential risks such as sleep apnea and arrhythmia, but also cross-validate with the data from the sound and pressure sensors 4, providing a highly reliable decision-making basis for intervention functions such as intelligent anti-snoring and sleep posture adjustment, and ultimately constructing a systematic sleep management solution that combines health warning and proactive optimization.

[0030] The working principle is as follows: The pillow has multiple built-in modules, including a guide module, a sound sensor, a constant temperature module, a pressure sensor, a piezoelectric sensor, an adapter board, and a main board. These components are all located on the pillow core, which includes, but is not limited to, high / low pillows, flat pillows, and butterfly pillows. The adapter board is fixed to the pillow and is positioned close to and connected to the main board. It mainly serves a protective function to reduce safety hazards. Its integrated overvoltage protection circuit can automatically cut off high voltage surges during power fluctuations to prevent the main board and sensors from burning out. To further explain, the light and sound module, sound sensor, constant temperature module, pressure sensor, and piezoelectric sensor are all electrically connected to the adapter board, which is connected to the main board. This data is collected by the adapter board and sent to the main board for intelligent analysis. The main board analyzes the user's sleep state according to a preset algorithm and adjusts each module accordingly. Finally, it can be controlled via a remote control. Users can directly set the mode or intervene in the adjustment via the remote control, thus forming a fully automatic and customizable multi-dimensional sleep aid solution. It's worth noting that the guidance module and sound sensor are primarily located on the sides of the pillow. When the user is using the headrest, the guidance module is positioned closer to the face. The light and sound module integrates a vibrator audio module and a light module to promote or improve sleep. The vibrator audio module transmits soothing sound waves through bone conduction technology, effectively shielding environmental noise without disturbing others. Meanwhile, the customized spectrum light module simulates the warm light of sunset, gently inhibiting melatonin and guiding the user's circadian rhythm towards sleep. The two work together to create an immersive relaxation environment from both auditory and visual perspectives, effectively relieving anxiety and shortening the time to fall asleep, thereby significantly improving sleep quality and sleep efficiency. Sound sensors are specifically designed to capture snoring sounds and record data such as frequency and volume for analyzing snoring patterns. Some smart pillows use sound sensors to implement snoring intervention functions. Specifically, they can capture and record key parameters such as the sound wave frequency, loudness, and duration of snoring sounds in real time, building a personalized snoring pattern database for users. This provides a data-driven basis for snoring intervention functions. Once a specific regular snoring signal is identified, the system can automatically link other modules in the pillow to implement sleep intervention, thereby improving the user's sleep and breathing quality. The thermostatic module, pressure sensor, and piezoelectric sensor are all positioned adjacent to each other in the lower center of the pillow. The thermostatic module, in conjunction with the oscillator audio module in the light and sound module, can improve blood circulation in the neck, improve insufficient blood supply to the brain, promote or improve sleep, and maintain a suitable temperature in the neck area. It can effectively promote local capillary dilation and blood circulation. When this temperature-sensing effect works synergistically with the soothing vibration generated by the oscillator audio module, it can further relax tense neck muscles and enhance blood flow, thereby significantly improving the efficiency of blood supply to the brain and alleviating sleep disorders caused by insufficient blood supply. Ultimately, by optimizing the physiological microenvironment, it helps users enter a deep sleep state more quickly. Pressure sensors detect body movements such as turning over and recording body movements during sleep. For example, smart anti-snoring pillows use pressure sensors to monitor changes in sleep posture in real time and accurately record body movement data to assess sleep stability and sleep stages, providing a real-time posture benchmark for intervention functions such as anti-snoring. Once a posture that is prone to snoring, such as lying on your back, is detected, the system can immediately trigger various modules to make adaptive adjustments, improve breathing quality and enhance overall sleep continuity. Piezoelectric sensors are used to monitor heartbeat, breathing, body movement, and snoring. They achieve non-contact detection by sensing pressure changes and sound signals. For example, smart pillows use flexible piezoelectric sensors embedded in the pillow core to accurately capture dynamic changes during sleep. Simply put, piezoelectric sensors convert the tiny sound pressure and pressure fluctuations generated by heartbeat, breathing, body movement, and snoring during sleep into electrical signals, enabling non-contact and unrestricted all-weather monitoring of physiological states. The deep integration of its flexible material with the pillow core ensures zero interference in the detection process. It can not only accurately capture potential risks such as sleep apnea and arrhythmia, but also cross-validate with data from sound and pressure sensors, providing a highly reliable decision-making basis for intervention functions such as intelligent anti-snoring and sleep posture adjustment. Ultimately, it constructs a systematic sleep management solution that combines health warnings and proactive optimization.

[0031] The beneficial effects of using the embodiments of this application are as follows: First, pressure and piezoelectric sensors non-intrusively monitor the user's heart rate, breathing, body movement, and sleeping posture changes. Simultaneously, a sound sensor accurately captures snoring characteristics. All physiological data is aggregated to the mainboard via an adapter board for analysis. The mainboard, based on algorithms, identifies sleep states and potential problems, immediately driving the light and sound module to create an immersive relaxation environment using bone conduction sound waves and a customized spectrum. This, in conjunction with a constant temperature module, optimizes neck blood circulation and guides the user to adjust posture to address snoring. Users can also personalize the mode via remote control, ultimately creating a fully automatic sleep aid pillow integrating real-time monitoring, multimodal intervention, and health management. The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit it. This application is not limited to the exact structures described above and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and it should not be considered that the specific implementation of this application is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications made without departing from the concept of this application should be considered to fall within the protection scope of this application.
