Abstract
Description
A control method for a massage component and a system and mattress using the same Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of sleeping, and in particular to a control method for a massage component, and a system and a mattress using the same. Background Art
[0002] Massage mattresses can provide users with a comfortable massage experience. Existing massage mattresses consist of a cushion and a massage assembly mounted on the cushion. Because the massage assembly is fixed to the cushion, the mattress cannot be customized to suit individual user preferences. Specifically, the massage assembly can be mechanically or electronically controlled to achieve its massage function. These solutions typically rely on preset massage programs or manual user control. The massage airbags in the massage mattress operate according to a pre-stored or user-set program to control the intensity and location of the airbag massage. However, this solution cannot meet the personalized needs of users of different heights, affecting user comfort. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In order to address the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a control method for a massage component, as well as a system and a mattress using the same. The massage component determines the position of the user's buttocks by the inflation and deflation time of each massage bag strip, and then uses a torso position database to infer the positions of the remaining torso segments. This ensures that the massage component can accurately apply massage stimulation to each torso segment of the user, improving user comfort, and also eliminates the need for manual adjustment by the user, thereby improving control convenience.
[0004] The present invention is implemented in the following manner: a control method for a massage assembly, wherein the massage assembly includes a plurality of rows of massage bladder strips arranged closely from front to back, and a user lies on the massage assembly and operates the massage assembly in the following steps:
[0005] Step 1: Repeat the inflation and deflation operations for each massage bag strip for N rounds, and detect and record the inflation time of each massage bag strip reaching the preset high pressure standard value and the deflation time reaching the preset low pressure standard value in each round;
[0006] Step 2: Set the inflation time difference threshold and the deflation time difference threshold. If the inflation time difference and the deflation time difference of adjacent wheels of each massage bag strip are less than the corresponding inflation time difference threshold and deflation time difference threshold, respectively, proceed to step 3. Otherwise, if the user position changes, proceed to step 1.
[0007] Step 3: independently summarize the inflation time and deflation time collected from each massage bag strip in the Nth round, and form an inflation time dataset and a deflation time dataset;
[0008] Step 4: Assign increasing serial numbers to the massage bladder strips arranged from front to back, arrange the data in the inflation time data set in ascending order and obtain the serial number L of the massage bladder strip corresponding to the first data point; arrange the data in the deflation time data set in ascending order and obtain the serial number K of the massage bladder strip corresponding to the first data point;
[0009] Step 5: Set a threshold value S. When |LK|≤S, calculate the buttocks number by (L+K) / 2. The area where the massage capsule strip corresponding to the buttocks number is located forms the buttocks massage area. When |LK|>S, jump to step 1.
[0010] Step 6: Pre-establish a trunk segment position database, and calculate the trunk segment number based on the hip number. The trunk segment number includes the shoulder number, back number, waist number, and leg number, and form the shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area, and leg massage area respectively through the corresponding massage bag strips.
[0011] When a user lies down, their buttocks exert a greater downward force, causing the corresponding massage bladder to quickly reach a preset high or low pressure standard value under the same inflation and deflation conditions. This determines the massage bladder corresponding to the buttocks and, based on this, infers the corresponding massage bladder numbers for the remaining torso segments through a database of torso position data. This facilitates obtaining the massage bladder numbers corresponding to each torso segment of the user, allowing the corresponding massage bladder to precisely apply massage stimulation to the corresponding torso segment. This eliminates the need for the user to manually set the massage stimulation application position, facilitating operation, while also providing differentiated massage stimulation based on the corresponding torso segment, effectively improving massage comfort. This method accurately detects the user's buttocks position after the user lies down, eliminating the need to pre-inflate each massage bladder to a standard value before the user lies down. This effectively improves detection accuracy and efficiency, enhancing the user experience.
[0012] Preferably, the inflation duration is set as CT-MN, and the deflation duration is set as FT-MN, where M is the serial number of the massage bladder being tested, and N is the number of rounds of data collection. In step 2, the inflation time difference threshold is set as Thread-CT, and the deflation time difference threshold is set as Thread-FT. When the absolute value of the difference between CT-MN and CT-M-(N-1) is less than or equal to Thread-CT, and the absolute value of the difference between FT-MN and FT-M-(N-1) is less than or equal to Thread-FT, data is recorded until N rounds of testing are completed. By comparing data obtained from adjacent rounds of testing, the user's position and posture are determined, preventing the massage bladder from failing to accurately apply pressure to the corresponding torso segment due to changes in the user's lying posture or position. When the user's posture or position changes, the position of the user's buttocks also changes accordingly, resulting in significant deviations in the data obtained from adjacent rounds of testing. By setting the inflation time difference threshold as Thread-CT and the deflation time difference threshold as Thread-FT, adjacent rounds of data are evaluated and used as a basis for determining whether the user has moved. In step 2, when the user moves and causes the difference between adjacent rounds of data to exceed the preset threshold, re-detection is performed and the accurate massage bag strip serial number corresponding to the user's buttocks is obtained. When the user does not move and the adjacent data comparisons after N rounds meet the preset threshold requirements, the massage bag strip serial number corresponding to the user's buttocks is accurately determined.
[0013] Preferably, in step 1, the massage bladder strips are inflated and deflated sequentially from front to back, and after completion, this operation is repeated N times, where N ≥ 2. The massage assembly determines the pressure status of each massage bladder strip by inflating and deflation sequentially from front to back, and continues this process for N times. This not only verifies whether the user has made any body movements by increasing the number of detection rounds, but also eliminates the impact of frequent body movements of the user in a short period of time on the accuracy of hip position detection by extending the detection time.
[0014] Preferably, the massage component includes M massage capsules, 1≤L≤M, 1≤K≤M, the vertical projection of the user's buttocks falls into the massage component and may correspond vertically to any massage capsule, ensuring that the massage component can apply massage stimulation to each part of the user's body.
[0015] Preferably, in step five, when the result of (L+K) / 2 is a non-integer, the result is rounded off to ensure that the user's buttocks can receive corresponding massage stimulation through the nearby massage capsule strips.
[0016] Preferably, in step 3, the inflation durations of the M massage bladder strips obtained in the Nth round of testing are aggregated to obtain the inflation duration dataset. In step 4, the deflation durations of the M massage bladder strips obtained in the Nth round of testing are aggregated to obtain the deflation duration dataset. Aggregating the data obtained in the Nth round of testing not only improves data reliability through N rounds of screening and testing, but also facilitates processing and reduces computational complexity, thereby lowering requirements on the control module.
[0017] Preferably, the torso position database stores multiple sets of basic data information for target groups, as well as serial number difference parameters and torso length parameters corresponding to each torso segment of the user. The buttocks serial number is calculated using the serial number difference parameter to obtain the corresponding torso segment number. The target groups have different basic data information, and the basic data information includes one or more of weight information, body shape information, and BMI information. The user obtains the corresponding serial number difference parameter and torso length parameter by comparing their own basic data information in the torso position database. The serial number difference parameter is multiple and corresponds to each torso segment of the user except the buttocks. It is used to indicate the number of massage capsules between each torso segment and the buttocks, so that the position of the remaining torso segments of the user can be determined by the position of the buttocks. The torso length parameter refers to the number of massage capsules used in the vertical projection of each torso segment. It is used in conjunction with the serial number difference parameter to delineate the position and area of each torso segment of the user, and then accurately apply massage stimulation to each torso segment through the corresponding massage capsule.
[0018] Preferably, the user manually adjusts the sequence number difference parameter and the torso segment length parameter so that the shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area, and leg massage area vertically overlap with the user's shoulders, back, waist, and legs, respectively. Because the torso segment position database is summarized and aggregated using statistical principles, the positions and areas of each torso segment of an individual user may differ from those obtained through the torso segment position database. The user can manually adjust the position to ensure that the massage component accurately applies massage stimulation to each torso segment, thereby improving user comfort. The areas determined by manual adjustment and corresponding to each torso segment can be collected and recorded by the torso segment position database for easy reuse later.
[0019] A system using the control method includes: a control module, which receives air pressure signals and records inflation time and deflation time, obtains by calculation the areas on the massage module corresponding to the buttocks massage area, shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area and leg massage area, and applies massage stimulation to the user's buttocks, shoulders, back, waist and legs respectively through the massage module; the massage module includes massage bag strips that are closely arranged from front to back; an air pressure detection module, which is used to detect the air pressure in each massage bag strip and transmit the air pressure signal to the control module; an air pump module, which is used to control the massage bag strips to perform inflation and deflation operations; and a storage module, which is used to store a body segment position database, massage operation programs corresponding to each body segment, and the inflation time and deflation time obtained by detection.
[0020] During use, after the user lies down, the control module first determines the pressure state and the location of the user's buttocks massage area based on the inflation and deflation speed of each massage bladder. It then uses the buttocks massage area as a reference to determine the shoulder, back, waist, and leg massage areas from the torso segment position database stored in the storage module. Finally, differentiated massage stimulation is applied to each corresponding torso segment of the user through the buttocks massage area, shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area, and leg massage area. By sequentially testing the inflation and deflation of each massage bladder in the massage assembly, the air pressure detection module and air pump module are shared, simplifying the structure, reducing processing costs and assembly difficulty, and effectively improving component utilization efficiency.
[0021] A mattress using the control method includes a cushion body and an outer cover enclosing the cushion body. The cushion body includes a comfort layer, a massage layer, an installation layer, and a support layer stacked sequentially from top to bottom. The massage layer includes the massage assembly. The installation layer is provided with springs arranged in a matrix and a control box disposed at an end thereof. The control box controls the inflation and deflation of massage bladders within the massage assembly. The massage layer is disposed above the installation layer and covered by the comfort layer. The comfort layer shields and protects the massage layer, allowing the comfort layer to conform closely to the user's surface through its own deformation. The installation layer also supports the massage layer, ensuring that the compressive force generated by the vertical deformation of the massage assembly is effectively transmitted to the user's surface, thereby enhancing massage stimulation and ensuring massage comfort.
[0022] Preferably, the vertical projections of the comfort layer, massage layer, installation layer and support layer overlap, which not only facilitates layer-by-layer assembly but also ensures that each middle area of the top surface of the cushion body can provide massage function to the user.
[0023] Preferably, the massage bag strip includes a plurality of massage unit bags arranged in a row, and the height of the massage unit bags after inflation is H, H≥3cm, ensuring that the vertical deformation amplitude of the massage bag strip can produce effective massage stimulation to the user, thereby improving massage comfort.
[0024] The outstanding beneficial effects of the present invention are: by measuring the time it takes for the massage bag strip to reach a preset high-pressure standard value or a preset low-pressure standard value under the same inflation and deflation conditions, the massage bag strip serial number corresponding to the user's buttocks position is determined, and based on this, the corresponding massage bag strip serial numbers of the remaining torso segments are deduced through the torso segment position database, thereby conveniently obtaining the massage bag strip serial numbers corresponding to each torso segment of the user, and then accurately applying massage stimulation to the corresponding torso segment through the corresponding massage bag strip, which does not require the user to manually set the massage stimulation application position, making operation convenient, and can also provide differentiated massage stimulation according to the corresponding torso segment, effectively improving massage comfort.

[0030] The essential features of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0031] Example 1:
[0032] This embodiment provides a massage component control method.
[0033] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, a control method for a massage component is provided, wherein the massage component 1 includes several rows of massage bag strips 2 tightly arranged from front to back. The serial number of the massage bag strip 2 corresponding to the user's buttocks position is determined by measuring the time it takes for the massage bag strip 2 to reach a preset high-pressure standard value or a preset low-pressure standard value under the same inflation and deflation conditions. Based on this, the serial numbers of the massage bag strips 2 corresponding to the remaining torso segments are deduced through the torso segment position database, thereby conveniently obtaining the serial numbers of the massage bag strips 2 corresponding to each torso segment of the user, and then accurately applying massage stimulation to the corresponding torso segment through the corresponding massage bag strips 2. This does not require the user to manually set the massage stimulation application position, which is convenient to operate, and can also provide differentiated massage stimulation according to the corresponding torso segment, effectively improving massage comfort.
[0034] In this embodiment, since the buttocks exert a large vertical force on the lower body when the user lies down, the buttocks exert a large vertical force on the massage bladder strip 2 below the user after the user lies down, resulting in a smaller volume of the massage bladder strip 2 below the buttocks. This allows the massage bladder strip 2 to reach the preset high pressure standard value or the preset low pressure standard value more quickly under the same inflation and deflation conditions. This principle is used to assist the massage component 1 in obtaining the user's buttocks position information, thereby ensuring that the massage component 1 can accurately apply massage stimulation to each part of the user's body. The user lies on the massage component 1 and operates the following steps:
[0035] Step 1: Repeat the inflation and deflation operations on each massage bladder 2 N times. The duration of inflation to reach the preset high pressure standard value and the duration of deflation to reach the preset low pressure standard value are detected and recorded. After the user lies down, the massage bladder 2 is inflated and deflated. The duration required for inflation to reach the high pressure standard value is recorded as the inflation duration, and the duration required for deflation to reach the low pressure standard value is recorded as the deflation duration. This provides data support for subsequent steps.
[0036] Specifically, the massage bladder strips 2 are inflated and deflated sequentially from front to back, and the process is repeated N times after completion. The vertical force exerted on each massage bladder strip 2 by the user is repeatedly verified through multiple rounds of inflation and deflation operations to ensure the accuracy of the test data.
[0037] Specifically, N≥2, preferably N=5, the massage component 1 determines the pressure condition of each massage bag strip 2 by inflating and deflating air in sequence from front to back, and verifies whether the user has body movement by increasing the number of detection rounds, and eliminates the influence of frequent body movement of the user in a short period of time on the accuracy of hip position detection by extending the detection time.
[0038] Step 2: Set the inflation time difference threshold and the deflation time difference threshold. When the inflation time difference and the deflation time difference of adjacent wheels of each massage bag strip 2 are less than the corresponding inflation time difference threshold and the deflation time difference threshold, respectively, proceed to step 3. Otherwise, the user position changes and proceed to step 1.
[0039] Specifically, the obtained inflation time is set to CT-MN, and the obtained deflation time is set to FT-MN, where M refers to the serial number of the massage bag strip 2 being detected, and N refers to the number of rounds of data collection. The inflation time difference threshold is set to Thread-CT, and the deflation time difference threshold is set to Thread-FT. When the absolute value of the difference between CT-MN and CT-M-(N-1) is less than or equal to Thread-CT and the absolute value of the difference between FT-MN and FT-M-(N-1) is less than or equal to Thread-FT, the data is recorded until N rounds of detection are completed. The data obtained from adjacent rounds of detection of the same massage bag strip 2 are compared. When the absolute value of the difference between the two is less than a preset threshold value, it indicates that the vertical force applied by the user to the massage bag strip 2 when the user is lying down has not changed significantly, and further indicates that the user has not moved during this period. When multiple rounds of comparison meet the requirements, it indicates that the user has maintained the current posture and obtained comfortable support, ensuring that the detection obtains an accurate hip position, and after completing N rounds of data collection, proceed to step three. When the absolute value of the difference between the two is greater than the preset threshold value, it indicates that the vertical force applied by the user to the massage bag strip 2 has changed significantly, and further indicates that the user may have moved due to the need for comfortable support, then proceed to step one and re-perform N rounds of detection.
[0040] Specifically, the inflation time and deflation time of the massage bag strip 2 need to be independently detected and compared. When the inflation time difference or deflation time difference obtained in any round fails to meet the preset threshold requirement, it is necessary to go back to step 1 and perform N rounds of detection again.
[0041] Step 3: The inflation and deflation times collected for each massage bladder strip 2 in the Nth round are independently aggregated to form an inflation and deflation time dataset. Since the data collected from each massage bladder strip 2 in the Nth round of detection all meet the requirement of being less than the inflation time difference threshold of Thread-CT or the deflation time difference threshold of Thread-FT, the Nth round of inflation and deflation time are used as the basis for subsequent calculations. This ensures data accuracy and reliability, effectively reduces the computational effort, and lowers the parameter requirements for the control module.
[0042] Specifically, the inflation times of the M massage bag strips 2 obtained in the Nth round of detection are summarized to obtain an inflation time data set including the serial number of the massage bag strip 2 and the corresponding inflation time; the deflation times of the M massage bag strips 2 obtained in the Nth round of detection are summarized to obtain a deflation time data set including the serial number of the massage bag strip 2 and the corresponding deflation time.
[0043] Step 4: Assign increasing serial numbers to the massage bladder strips 2 arranged from front to back. Arrange the data in the inflation duration data set from smallest to largest and obtain the serial number L for the massage bladder strip 2 corresponding to the first data point. Arrange the data in the deflation duration data set from smallest to largest and obtain the serial number K for the massage bladder strip 2 corresponding to the first data point. Sort the inflation durations of the massage bladder strips 2 in the inflation duration data set, find the massage bladder strip 2 with the shortest inflation duration, and set the serial number of this massage bladder strip 2 as L. Sort the deflation durations of the massage bladder strips 2 in the deflation duration data set, find the massage bladder strip 2 with the shortest deflation duration, and set the serial number of this massage bladder strip 2 as K. This provides a calculation basis for subsequent steps.
[0044] Specifically, the massage component 1 includes M massage bags 2, 1≤L≤M, 1≤K≤M, which not only ensures that the number of massage bags 2 arranged in the front and back directions meets the needs of supporting the user, but also improves the division accuracy of the corresponding areas of each body segment by increasing the number of massage bags 2.
[0045] Step 5: Set a threshold value S. When |LK| ≤ S, calculate (L+K) / 2 to obtain the buttocks number. The area of the massage bladder strip 2 corresponding to this buttocks number forms the buttocks massage zone. When |LK| > S, jump to step 1. Setting the threshold value S verifies the difference between L and K. Typically, due to the user's buttocks squeezing, the inflation and deflation times of the massage bladder strips 2 in a local area of the massage assembly 1 are both short. If the difference between the massage bladder strip 2 serial numbers calculated by calculating the inflation and deflation times is large, it indicates that two massage bladder strips 2 located far apart in the massage assembly 1 are experiencing a large vertical force, making it impossible to determine the specific location of the user's buttocks. Therefore, jump to step 1 for re-measurement to avoid misjudgment.
[0046] Specifically, when the result of (L+K) / 2 is a non-integer, the number of the massage bag strip 2 corresponding to the position of the user's buttocks is calculated by rounding it off.
[0047] Step 6: Pre-establish a trunk segment position database and use the buttocks number as a reference to calculate the trunk segment numbers, which include the shoulder number, back number, waist number, and leg number. The corresponding massage capsule strips 2 are then used to form the shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area, and leg massage area, respectively. The shoulder, back, waist, and leg numbers are calculated using the pre-established trunk segment position database based on the buttocks number. The shoulder, back, waist, and leg numbers are then divided into the shoulder, back, waist, and leg massage areas using the massage capsule strips 2 with the corresponding numbers. This allows the massage assembly 1 to accurately apply massage stimulation to the corresponding trunk segments of the user through the massage capsule strips 2 in the shoulder, back, waist, and leg massage areas, respectively.
[0048] Specifically, the torso position database stores multiple groups of basic data information of target groups and serial number difference parameters and torso length parameters corresponding to each torso of the user. The torso serial number is calculated by using the serial number difference parameters to obtain the corresponding torso serial number. Each group of target groups has different basic data information, and the basic data information includes one or more of weight information, body shape information, and BMI information. The shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area, and leg massage area all have their own independent serial number difference parameters and torso length parameters. The serial number difference parameters are used to reflect the number of massage bag strips 2 spaced between the corresponding torso and buttocks, and thus reflect the front-to-back distance between the corresponding torso and buttocks. The torso length parameters are used to reflect the front-to-back length of the corresponding torso, ensuring that the shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area, and leg massage area can vertically correspond to the user's shoulders, back, waist, and legs.
[0049] In this embodiment, when the shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area and leg massage area calculated through the torso position database deviate from the actual position of each torso segment of the user, the user inputs basic data information through an external controller and manually adjusts the serial number difference parameter and torso segment length parameter so that the shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area and leg massage area vertically coincide with the user's shoulders, back, waist and legs respectively.
[0050] Example 2:
[0051] Compared with the first embodiment, this embodiment provides a system using the control method.
[0052] The system includes a control module, a massage module, an air pressure detection module, an air pump module, and a storage module. After the user lies down, the control module first determines the pressure state and the location of the user's buttocks massage area based on the inflation and deflation speed of each massage bladder strip 2. Then, based on the buttocks massage area, the control module obtains the shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area, and leg massage area from the body segment position database in the storage module. Finally, differentiated massage stimulation is applied to the corresponding body segments of the user through the buttocks massage area, shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area, and leg massage area.
[0053] In this embodiment, the control module receives the air pressure signal and records the inflation time and the deflation time, and obtains the areas on the massage module corresponding to the buttocks massage area, shoulder massage area, back massage area, waist massage area and leg massage area respectively through calculation, and applies massage stimulation to the user's buttocks, shoulders, back, waist and legs respectively through the massage module.
[0054] In this embodiment, the massage module includes massage bag strips 2 that are closely arranged from front to back.
[0055] In this embodiment, the air pressure detection module is used to detect the air pressure within each massage bladder strip 2 and transmit an air pressure signal to the control module. The air pressure detection module is configured in conjunction with the air pump module to detect the air pressure of each massage bladder strip 2 connected to the air pump module, thereby facilitating the control module to obtain the inflation and deflation time of each massage bladder strip 2.
[0056] In this embodiment, the air pump module is used to control the inflation and deflation of the massage bladder strips 2. The air pump module is connected to each massage bladder strip 2 via a pipeline assembly, and each massage bladder strip 2 is equipped with a switchable valve. By controlling the opening and closing of the valve, the connection and disconnection between each massage bladder strip 2 and the air pump module are controlled, thereby facilitating the inflation and deflation operations of the massage bladder strips 2 using the same air pump module.
[0057] In this embodiment, the storage module is used to store the body segment position database, the massage operation program corresponding to each body segment, and the inflation time and deflation time obtained by detection, providing data support for the normal operation of the control module.
[0058] The other features and effects of the control method described in this embodiment are consistent with those of the first embodiment and will not be described in detail.
[0059] Example 3:
[0060] Compared with the first embodiment, this embodiment provides a mattress.
[0061] The mattress shown in Figure 3 includes a cushion body and an outer cover 8 enclosing the cushion body. The cushion body comprises a comfort layer 3, a massage layer 4, a mounting layer 5, and a support layer 6 stacked in sequence from top to bottom. The massage layer 4 includes the massage assembly 1. The mounting layer 5 is provided with springs arranged in a matrix and a control box 7 disposed at its end. The control box 7 controls the inflation and deflation of the massage bladder strips 2 within the massage assembly 1. Placing the control box 7 within the mounting layer 5 not only facilitates piping installation by shortening the distance between the control box 7 and the massage layer 4, thus facilitating assembly and maintenance, but also allows the massage layer 4 and comfort layer 3 to shield the control box 7, reducing the sensation of a foreign body and effectively preventing noise and vibration generated by the control box 7 from being transmitted upward, thus ensuring a better sleep experience for the user.
[0062] In this embodiment, the vertical projections of the comfort layer 3, massage layer 4, installation layer 5 and support layer 6 overlap, which not only ensures that the vertical lying experience of each area of the cushion body remains consistent, but also facilitates production and assembly.
[0063] In this embodiment, the massage bag strip 2 includes a plurality of massage unit bags arranged in a row. The height of the massage unit bags after inflation is H, H ≥ 3 cm. The massage unit bags located on the same massage bag strip 2 are interconnected and can be inflated and deflated synchronously, which not only effectively simplifies the pipeline structure, but also ensures that each section of the massage bag strip 2 can provide balanced massage stimulation to the user.
[0064] In this embodiment, the mattress is provided with an external controller (as shown in FIG4 ), and the user inputs basic data information through the external controller and manually adjusts the sequence number difference parameter and the trunk length parameter to meet the user's usage requirements.
[0065] The other features and effects of the control method described in this embodiment are consistent with those of the first embodiment and will not be described in detail.
