Description

Mattress and system using the same Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of sleeping, and in particular to a mattress and a system using the mattress. Background Art

[0002] Existing smart mattresses provide users with more comfortable pre-bedtime relaxation and sleep quality improvement services by integrating sensors, control boxes and functional parts, thereby realizing intelligent control of the mattress and providing a more comfortable sleeping environment.

[0003] Smart mattresses currently on the market use components like airbags and solenoid valves to inflate and deflate, enabling adjustable firmness and massage functions, providing a personalized sleep-enhancing experience. Some also offer heating features, using electric heaters to adjust the mattress temperature and provide a relaxing, sleep-inducing experience.

[0004] During use, existing smart mattresses have the following defects: existing control boxes, solenoid valves, electric heaters and other live components are all set inside the mattress, causing the user to be close to the live components when lying down, posing a safety hazard; the structure inside the mattress is complex, affecting the air permeability of the mattress and affecting the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to address the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a mattress and a system using the same. The control box is externally mounted on the mattress, and the mattress applies massage stimulation and temperature stimulation to the user through massage airbags and thermal nozzles, respectively. This not only improves safety of use by removing live components from the mattress, but also facilitates inspection and maintenance of live components, thereby improving comfort of use.

[0006] The present invention is achieved in the following manner: a mattress comprising a cushion body, a control box, a massage component, and a heating component, wherein the control box is externally disposed on the cushion body, the massage component comprises a massage airbag disposed within the cushion body, and the heating component comprises a thermal nozzle disposed within the cushion body, wherein the thermal nozzle and the massage airbag are offset so that the cushion body applies massage stimulation and temperature stimulation to the user through the massage airbag and the thermal nozzle, respectively. The control box is externally disposed on the mattress, the mattress applies massage stimulation to the user through the massage airbag, the control box generates massage stimulation by inflating and deflating the massage airbag, the mattress applies temperature stimulation to the user through the thermal nozzle, and the control box delivers hot air that meets temperature requirements to the thermal nozzle. This not only improves safety by removing live components from the mattress, but also facilitates inspection and maintenance of live components, improving ease of use, while ensuring that massage stimulation and temperature stimulation can be flexibly and accurately controlled, thereby improving user comfort.

[0007] Preferably, the massage assembly includes an air pump, a massage three-way valve, and an air pressure sensor disposed within a control box. The massage three-way valve is connected to the massage airbag via an air charging and discharging pipe. The air pressure sensor is disposed on the section of the air charging and discharging pipe located within the control box, so that the massage airbag generates massage stimulation through repeated inflation and deflation. The air pump, massage three-way valve, and air pressure sensor are all disposed within the control box, which not only protects the live components by enclosing them, but also facilitates control of the live components and simplifies the circuit structure. The control box is connected to the massage airbag via the air charging and discharging pipe, so that the massage airbag generates massage stimulation for the user through inflation and deflation operations.

[0008] Preferably, the heating assembly includes a hair dryer, a heating element, a heating valve, and a temperature sensor arranged in a control box. The heating valve is connected to the hot nozzle via a hot air duct, and the temperature sensor is arranged on the section of the hot air duct located in the control box, so that the airflow formed by the hair dryer forms hot air that is transported outward through the hot nozzle after passing through the heating element. The hair dryer, the heating element, the heating valve, and the temperature sensor are all arranged in the control box, which not only protects the live components by wrapping them, but also facilitates the control of the live components and simplifies the circuit structure. The control box transports hot air to the hot nozzle via the hot air duct, so that the mattress can accurately control the temperature stimulation applied to the user by adjusting the temperature and air volume of the hot air.

[0009] Preferably, the heating valve comprises at least two ports, and the two ports are connected to the hair dryer and the hot spray head respectively. The heating element is arranged on the pipeline between the hair dryer and the heating valve, and the heating valve and the hot spray head are connected via a hot air pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the massage airbags are arranged in a matrix, with the thermal nozzles positioned between adjacent rows of massage airbags. The staggered placement of the massage airbags and thermal nozzles ensures they can operate independently and without interference, preventing any squeezing or displacement caused by conflict. The spaced massage airbags provide massage stimulation to various areas of the user's body while also providing space for the thermal nozzles, ensuring that the hot air output from the thermal nozzles is transmitted upward to the mattress surface through the gaps between adjacent massage airbags.

[0011] Preferably, the hot nozzle is in the shape of an elongated strip and is provided with nozzles spaced along its length. The nozzles are upwardly facing so that the hot air in the hot nozzle is transported upward through the nozzles. The hot nozzle and the massage airbag have the same length, so that the two can be closely arranged and the density of the arrangement can be increased. There are multiple nozzles and they are arranged upward, so that the hot air can flow upward to the surface of the mattress and apply temperature stimulation to the user, effectively reducing the loss of hot air during the transmission process, improving the efficiency of heat utilization, and improving the flexibility and accuracy of temperature stimulation adjustment by reducing heat accumulation in the mattress. The diameter of the nozzle gradually increases along the flow direction of the hot air in the hot nozzle to ensure that the flow rate of each nozzle is balanced. Since the flow rate of hot air in the hot nozzle will be reduced due to discharge along the way, by increasing the nozzle diameter, it is ensured that each nozzle obtains a balanced heat output when the flow rate of the hot nozzle is different, ensuring that each area of ​​the mattress can produce a balanced temperature stimulation.

[0012] Preferably, the cushion body includes an upper quilted layer, a comfort layer, a functional layer, a support layer, and a lower quilted layer stacked in sequence from top to bottom. The functional layer is provided with an installation cavity for enclosing and positioning the massage airbag and the thermal nozzle, so that the relative position between the massage airbag and the thermal nozzle is fixed. The massage airbag and the thermal nozzle are inserted into the corresponding installation cavity to limit the displacement of the massage airbag and the thermal nozzle, thereby ensuring that the massage airbag and the thermal nozzle can work independently and do not interfere with each other. The hot air output by the thermal nozzle is input into the comfort layer from bottom to top and can be diffused in the comfort layer so that each area on the top surface of the comfort layer has a balanced temperature, ensuring that the area on the top surface of the comfort layer surrounding the same thermal nozzle has a balanced temperature stimulation.

[0013] Preferably, the functional layer includes mounting cavities, and the thermal nozzles and massage airbags are secured within corresponding mounting cavities to limit displacement of the thermal nozzles and massage airbags. Multiple mounting cavities are provided, each matching the contours of the corresponding thermal nozzles or massage airbags, ensuring they are securely positioned and prevented from displacement or deflection.

[0014] Preferably, a sleep monitoring belt is provided beneath the cushion. This belt is independent of the cushion, eliminating any live components and ensuring safe use. The belt monitors the user's sleep state, providing a basis for controlling temperature and massage stimulation. The belt is placed on the top surface of the cushion, minimizing the distance from the user's surface to improve detection accuracy.

[0015] A system using the mattress includes a control module, a sleep monitoring module, a temperature adjustment module, a massage module, and a storage module. The control module obtains user information, operating parameter information, and sleep state information from the sleep monitoring module, and applies differentiated temperature and massage stimulation to the user through the temperature adjustment module and the massage module.

[0016] The control module receives user information, working parameter information and sleep status information from the sleep monitoring module, and applies temperature stimulation and massage stimulation to the user through the temperature adjustment module and the massage module.

[0017] The sleep monitoring module is used to monitor the user's sleep state and transmit sleep state information to the control module, providing a basis for adjusting massage stimulation and temperature stimulation; the sleep monitoring module is used to detect the user's sleep state, thereby facilitating the control module to match and adjust temperature stimulation and massage stimulation according to the user's sleep state.

[0018] The temperature adjustment module includes a blowing unit, a heating unit and a temperature detection unit. It receives instructions from the control module and increases the temperature of each zone through the heating unit so that the temperature of each zone can apply corresponding temperature stimulation to each corresponding body segment of the user.

[0019] The massage module includes a massage airbag, an inflation and deflation unit, and an air pressure detection unit. It receives instructions from the control module and generates massage stimulation by inflating and deflation operations on the massage airbag.

[0020] The storage module is used to store the program, user information and working parameter information required for running the control method.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the control box is placed outside the mattress, the mattress applies massage stimulation to the user through the massage airbags, the control box forms massage stimulation by inflating and deflating the massage airbags, the mattress applies temperature stimulation to the user through the thermal nozzles, and the control box supplies hot air that meets the temperature requirements to the thermal nozzles. This not only improves the safety of use by moving the live components away from the mattress, but also facilitates the inspection and maintenance of the live components, thereby improving the convenience of use, and ensuring that the massage stimulation and temperature stimulation can be flexibly and accurately controlled, thereby improving the comfort of use.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[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 mattress.

[0033] The mattress shown in Figures 1 and 2 includes a cushion body 1, a control box 2, a massage component, and a heating component. The control box 2 is external to the cushion body 1. The massage component includes a massage airbag 3 disposed within the cushion body 1. The heating component includes a thermal nozzle 4 disposed within the cushion body 1. The thermal nozzle 4 is offset from the massage airbag 3 so that the cushion body 1 applies massage stimulation and temperature stimulation to the user through the massage airbag 3 and the thermal nozzle 4, respectively. The external control box 2 is provided, and all live components are disposed within the control box 2. This allows the live components on the cushion body 1 to be detached, ensuring user safety, and allows the live components to be inspected and repaired through the external control box 2 without disassembling the cushion body 1, effectively improving maintenance efficiency and enhancing the user experience.

[0034] In this embodiment, a control module 19 is provided in the control box 2. The control module 19 independently controls the massage component and the heating component, thereby forming differentiated massage stimulation and temperature stimulation applied to the user.

[0035] In this embodiment, the cushion body 1 includes an upper quilted layer 13, a comfort layer 15, a functional layer 16, a support layer 18, and a lower quilted layer 14, stacked sequentially from top to bottom (as shown in FIG3 ). The functional layer 16 includes a mounting cavity for enclosing and positioning the massage airbags 3 and the thermal nozzles 4, thereby fixing the relative positions of the massage airbags 3 and the thermal nozzles 4. The functional layer 16 is a sponge layer with a mounting cavity. During installation, the massage airbags 3 and the thermal nozzles 4 are inserted and fixedly connected within the corresponding spaces of the mounting cavity. The functional layer 16 not only secures and positions the massage airbags 3 and the thermal nozzles 4, ensuring that the massage airbags 3 and the thermal nozzles 4 can operate independently and without interference, preventing deflection or displacement of the massage airbags 3 and the thermal nozzles 4 due to external forces, but also ensures that the top surface of the functional layer 16 remains flat, facilitating the smooth installation of the comfort layer 15, effectively eliminating the foreign body sensation when the user lies down, and improving lying comfort.

[0036] In this embodiment, mounting cavities 20 are provided within the functional layer 16. The thermal nozzles 4 and massage airbags 3 are secured within their respective mounting cavities to prevent displacement of the thermal nozzles 4 and massage airbags 3. Multiple mounting cavities 20 are provided, each matching the contours of the corresponding thermal nozzles 4 or massage airbags 3. This ensures that the thermal nozzles 4 and massage airbags 3 are securely secured and prevent displacement or deflection.

[0037] In this embodiment, the mounting cavity includes a first chamber for mounting the massage airbags 3. Space is reserved within the first chamber for the massage airbags 3 to expand and contract, preventing damage to the functional layer 16 due to synchronous expansion and contraction with the massage airbags 3. The mounting cavity also includes a second chamber for mounting the heat nozzles 4. The second chamber has an opening exposed to the top surface of the functional layer 16. Hot air from the heat nozzles 4 is transported upward through the opening, allowing the hot air to diffuse within the comfort layer 15 and be evenly distributed across all areas of the top surface of the cushion body 1.

[0038] In this embodiment, the massage airbags 3 are arranged in a matrix, and the thermal nozzles 4 are strip-shaped. The thermal nozzles 4 are positioned between adjacent rows of massage airbags 3. The thermal nozzles 4 and massage airbags 3 are arranged in rows at intervals. This ensures that the massage airbags 3 and thermal nozzles 4 are evenly distributed on the cushion body 1, ensuring that all parts of the user's body receive massage and temperature stimulation. It also improves user comfort by increasing the density of the massage airbags 3 and thermal nozzles 4. The air pressure within the massage airbags 3 arranged in the same row is uniformly regulated, ensuring that the massage airbags 3 in each partition of the cushion body 1 can be adjusted synchronously. It also simplifies the structure of the control box 2 by reducing the number of independently controllable groups of massage airbags 3.

[0039] In this embodiment, the hot spray head 4 is provided with nozzles 12 spaced along its length. The nozzles 12 face upward, allowing hot air in the hot spray head 4 to be transported upward through the nozzles 12. The hot spray head 4 is inserted into the gaps between adjacent rows of massage airbags 3, guiding the massage airbags 3 to expand and contract vertically by filling the gaps between adjacent rows of massage airbags 3, thereby preventing the massage airbags 3 from tilting during inflation and expansion.

[0040] In this embodiment, the heat nozzles 12 are arranged parallel to each other and are located between adjacent rows of massage airbags 3. The nozzles 12 are evenly distributed along the length direction of the heat nozzle 4, so that the nozzles 12 are arranged in a matrix shape on the pad body 1. The hot air output by each nozzle 12 diffuses to the periphery, so that each area of ​​the top surface of the pad body 1 is effectively heated, ensuring that each part of the user's body can receive effective temperature stimulation.

[0041] In this embodiment, the massage component includes a massage airbag 3 arranged in the cushion body 1 and an air pump 5, a massage three-way valve 6 and an air pressure sensor 8 arranged in the control box 2. The massage airbag 3 is installed in the function and has the space required for expansion and contraction. The air pump 5, the massage three-way valve 6 and the air pressure sensor 8 arranged in the control box 2 cooperate with each other to inflate and deflate the massage airbag 3, so that the massage airbag 3 can produce a massage stimulation of a preset intensity, thereby improving the comfort of use.

[0042] In this embodiment, the three ports of the massage three-way valve 6 are connected to the outside world, the air pump 5, and the massage airbag 3, respectively. The massage three-way valve 6 and the massage airbag 3 are connected via an air charging and discharging tube, so that the massage airbag 3 can generate massage stimulation through repeated inflation and deflation. When the massage three-way valve 6 controls the air pump 5 to connect to the massage airbag 3, high-pressure air generated by the air pump 5 can be input into the massage airbag 3 through the massage three-way valve 6, thereby inflating the massage airbag 3 and providing massage stimulation to the user. When the massage three-way valve 6 controls the massage airbag 3 to connect to the outside world, the high-pressure air in the massage airbag 3 is discharged through the massage three-way valve 6 to the outside world, thereby defusing the massage airbag 3, softening it, and preparing it for further inflation.

[0043] In this embodiment, the air pressure sensor 8 is located on the section of the inflation and discharge pipes located within the control box 2. The air pressure sensor 8 determines the air pressure within the massage airbag 3 by sensing the air pressure of the airflow within the inflation and discharge pipes, thereby ensuring that the air pressure within the massage airbag 3 reaches a preset pressure and provides a massage stimulation of a preset intensity. The stronger the set massage stimulation, the greater the inflation pressure within the massage airbag 3, and the two are directly proportional and correlated to each other.

[0044] In this embodiment, the heating component includes a thermal nozzle 4 arranged in the pad body 1 and a hair dryer 10, a heating element 11, a heating valve 7 and a temperature sensor 9 arranged in the control box 2. The airflow generated by the hair dryer 10 flows through the heating element 11 to form hot air delivered to the thermal nozzle 4, which is used to control the temperature of each area of ​​the pad body 1 and apply temperature stimulation to the user, thereby improving the comfort of use.

[0045] In this embodiment, the heating valve 7 includes at least two ports, and the two ports are respectively connected to the hair dryer 10 and the hot nozzle 4. The heating element 11 is arranged on the pipeline between the hair dryer 10 and the heating valve 7, and the heating valve 7 and the hot nozzle 4 are connected through a hot air pipe. When in use, the hair dryer 10 is running to generate airflow, the heating element 11 is turned on and heats the airflow into hot air, and the hot air is transported to the hot nozzle 4 through the heating valve 7. The hot air output by the hot nozzle 4 passes upward through the comfort layer 15 and forms a temperature stimulation for the user. In the above process, by turning off the heating element 11 to transport normal temperature airflow to the comfort layer 15 through the hot nozzle 4, the temperature of the comfort layer 15 can be effectively reduced to meet the temperature stimulation requirements, and the effect of ventilation and dehumidification can also be achieved.

[0046] In this embodiment, the temperature sensor 9 is arranged on the section of the hot air pipe located in the control box 2. The temperature sensor 9 detects the air flow temperature in the hot air pipe, thereby providing a basis for the controller to adjust the power of the heating element 11, ensuring that the pad body 1 can apply temperature stimulation to the user that meets the usage requirements.

[0047] In this embodiment, a sleep monitoring belt 17 is provided under the mat body 1. The sleep monitoring belt is used to detect the user's sleeping state and provide a basis for the control module to adjust the temperature stimulation and massage stimulation.

[0048] As shown in Figure 4, by configuring a suitable control method for the mattress to improve the sleep-aiding effect, the user's sleep includes the preparation stage, the gradual falling asleep stage, the sleep maintenance stage, and the preparation stage. The massage airbag 3 is used to apply massage stimulation to the user, and differentiated temperature stimulation and massage stimulation are applied to the user in each stage. By implementing differentiated temperature stimulation and massage stimulation to the user in different stages of the user's sleep, the user's needs for differentiated functions in each stage are met, thereby improving the sleep experience. Specifically, as shown in Figures 5 and 6:

[0049] When the user is about to fall asleep, the temperature stimulation rises uniformly to the preset high temperature value, and the massage stimulation is maintained steadily at a high intensity. The user needs to relax through temperature stimulation and massage stimulation. The higher temperature stimulates blood circulation, and the stronger massage stimulation relaxes muscles, so that the user can gradually fall asleep as soon as possible.

[0050] When the user is gradually falling asleep, the temperature stimulation gradually decreases to the preset low temperature value, and the massage stimulation gradually decreases until it disappears. The user needs to fall asleep as soon as possible. The gradually decreasing temperature stimulation and massage stimulation are used to guide the user to relax physically and mentally and fall asleep, thereby improving the sleep-aiding effect so that the user can enter the sleep maintenance stage as soon as possible.

[0051] When the user is in the sleep maintenance stage, the temperature stimulation is steadily maintained at the preset low temperature value, and the massage stimulation is turned off. The user needs to maintain a stable deep sleep state, the temperature stimulation is maintained at the preset low temperature value, and the massage stimulation is turned off, which effectively prolongs the deep sleep state and thus improves sleep quality;

[0052] When the user is in the stage of preparing to wake up, the temperature stimulation rises uniformly to the preset temperature median, and the massage stimulation gradually increases to a high-intensity state. The temperature stimulation and massage stimulation are used to improve the wake-up comfort, eliminate the fatigue caused by forced exit from deep sleep, and enhance the user experience.

[0053] When implementing the control method, the user's sleep state is monitored to provide a basis for adjusting the temperature stimulation and massage stimulation of each zone of the mattress during each stage; the massage stimulation is applied to the user by changing the inflation hardness of the massage airbag 3, and the temperature stimulation is applied to the user by changing the temperature. The control method includes the following steps:

[0054] S100: Collect user information and working parameter information, and use them to obtain mattress partition division, preset high temperature value, preset low temperature value, maximum air pressure value Pmax of massage airbag 3, relaxation massage time, wake-up time, and wake-up temperature upper limit.

[0055] Specifically, the user can adjust the temperature stimulation and massage stimulation during the implementation of the control method by presetting the working parameter information to meet the user's personalized usage needs. By presetting the wake-up time, the time to enter the preparation stage of awakening is determined, thereby ensuring that the user is awakened at the preset time.

[0056] S200: The user lies down and is in the stage of preparing to fall asleep. The temperature stimulation rises uniformly to the preset high temperature value. The massage airbag 3 obtains high-intensity massage stimulation by frequently inflating to the maximum air pressure value Pmax. After the relaxation massage time, it goes into S300.

[0057] Specifically, the temperature stimulation rises at a uniform rate, causing the temperature on the surface of the mattress to rise uniformly until it reaches a preset high temperature value. During this process, the user's body temperature will rise accordingly and facilitate blood flow and circulation, thus achieving the effect of a hot compress.

[0058] Specifically, the massage airbag 3 is inflated and deflated back and forth, and each inflation reaches a relatively high air pressure, ensuring that each massage stimulation is in a high-intensity state, relaxing the user's muscles through high-intensity pressing, thereby effectively eliminating body fatigue and relaxing muscles.

[0059] S300: Detect the temperature of each partition. If it reaches the preset high temperature value, go to S400. Otherwise, go to S200.

[0060] Specifically, since the temperature rises at a uniform rate and the heating rate is determined, the duration of the preparation-to-sleep stage is determined. When the temperature of each zone on the mattress reaches the preset high temperature value, it means that the preparation-to-sleep stage has met the duration, and the process goes to S400 and switches to the gradual falling asleep stage. Otherwise, the process goes to S200 and ensures that each zone reaches the preset high temperature value by extending the temperature rise time, ensuring that the user's body temperature rise meets the requirements, and preventing the heat from dissipating too quickly due to the ambient temperature being too low and failing to meet the user's heating requirements.

[0061] S400: The user is in the stage of gradually falling asleep, the temperature stimulation gradually drops to the preset low temperature value, the massage stimulation gradually decreases until it disappears, the massage airbag 3 is repeatedly inflated and deflated, and the inflation pressure gradually decreases. When the temperature stimulation drops to the preset low temperature value or the user is detected to enter a deep sleep state, the sleep maintenance stage is entered and transferred to S500.

[0062] Specifically, the temperature stimulation gradually drops to a preset low temperature value, thereby lowering the user's body temperature by lowering the temperature, thereby slowing down the blood circulation rate and reducing metabolism, thereby guiding the user to fall asleep.

[0063] Specifically, the massage stimulation gradually decreases until it disappears. By reducing the massage stimulation to the user, the impact on the user's sleep is gradually reduced, preventing the user from being unable to fall asleep due to receiving strong massage stimulation. In addition, by adjusting the frequency of the massage stimulation, the user is guided to slow down the breathing rate, thereby shortening the time it takes to fall asleep.

[0064] S500: When the user is in the sleep maintenance stage, the temperature stimulation is steadily maintained at a preset low temperature value, and the massage stimulation is turned off until the time of waking up is approaching and the process enters S600.

[0065] Specifically, when the user falls asleep and enters the sleep maintenance phase, the temperature is maintained at a preset low value, keeping the user's body temperature low, which is conducive to maintaining a deep sleep state for a long time and improving sleep quality. Massage stimulation is always turned off during this phase to prevent the user from being awakened by massage stimulation.

[0066] S600: When the user is still in a deep sleep state, the temperature stimulation is steadily maintained at a preset low temperature value, and the massage stimulation is turned off until the awakening time is reached, and then the process goes to S700; when the user leaves the deep sleep state, the process goes to S700;

[0067] Specifically, when the user is in a deep sleep state before the wake-up time arrives, the temperature stimulation and massage stimulation maintain the settings of the sleep maintenance stage. The temperature stimulation is always maintained at a preset low temperature value, and the massage stimulation is always turned off to extend the user's deep sleep normal maintenance time.

[0068] Specifically, when the user has left the deep sleep state before the wake-up time is reached, the process switches to the preparation-to-wake-up stage by entering S700 to improve the wake-up comfort.

[0069] S700: When the user is in the stage of preparing to wake up, the temperature stimulation rises uniformly to the preset temperature median, the massage stimulation gradually rises to a high intensity state, the massage airbag 3 is repeatedly inflated and deflated, and the inflation pressure gradually increases to the maximum pressure value Pmax.

[0070] Specifically, the temperature and massage stimulation gradually increase, extending the wake-up time to improve wake-up comfort, prevent discomfort caused by a short wake-up time, and enhance the user experience. During the wake-up process, the temperature and massage intensity continue to rise to promote blood circulation and increase body excitability.

[0071] In this embodiment, by pre-collecting user information and combining it with a database to obtain corresponding working parameter information, the user can obtain working parameter information that matches their own situation, thereby obtaining temperature stimulation and massage stimulation that meet their own usage needs, thereby improving user comfort, which should also be considered a specific implementation method of this embodiment. The database includes user information and working parameter information corresponding to the user information, the user information including the user's weight, gender, height, and age. The working parameter information is obtained by comparing the input user information, and the appropriate temperature stimulation and massage stimulation are automatically matched to the user.

[0072] In this embodiment, the operating parameter information includes the overall temperature rise Tc. The preset high temperature Tmax is calculated by collecting the normal temperature Td, where Tmax = Tc + Td. Normal temperature Td refers to the ambient temperature. The user sets the overall temperature rise Tc based on their preference, and the preset high temperature Tmax is calculated using a formula. This allows the preset high temperature to change synchronously with the ambient temperature, ensuring user comfort.

[0073] In this embodiment, the preset low temperature value Tmin is calculated from the preset high temperature value Tmax. A conversion parameter K is set, Tmin = K * Tmax, preferably K = 0.8. The preset low temperature value is calculated from the preset high temperature value, so that the two temperatures are linked and can be adjusted by setting the overall temperature increase amplitude Tc. In addition, the conversion parameter K can also be 0.7, 0.75, 0.85, 0.9, etc. As long as the requirement of 0.7 ≤ K < 1 is met, it should be considered a specific implementation of this embodiment.

[0074] In this embodiment, a corresponding conversion coefficient is set between each mattress zone and the preset upper temperature value Tmax to provide differentiated temperature stimulation to each mattress zone. The mattress is divided into multiple zones based on user needs, corresponding to different torso segments. Since different torso segments have different temperature requirements, setting conversion coefficients facilitates each zone to obtain the corresponding temperature parameters. This not only ensures that each torso segment receives a temperature that meets user requirements, enhancing user comfort, but also ensures that the temperatures in each zone change synchronously, achieving unified regulation.

[0075] In this embodiment, the awakening temperature Te is set, and the difference between the awakening temperature upper limit Tb and the preset high temperature Tmax is no more than 5°C, with Tmin < Te < Tb. The awakening temperature Te refers to the temperature corresponding to the thermal stimulus during the preparation for awakening phase. It increases over time, gradually increasing the thermal stimulus. The awakening temperature upper limit Tb is the upper limit of the awakening temperature Te, limiting the thermal stimulus and preventing the user from experiencing discomfort due to excessively strong thermal stimulation during the awakening phase. The awakening temperature upper limit Tb can be set by selecting a mode: high, moderate, or low. When the high temperature mode is selected, the awakening temperature upper limit Tb is 5°C higher than the preset high temperature Tmax. When the moderate mode is selected, the awakening temperature upper limit Tb is the same as the preset high temperature Tmax. When the low temperature mode is selected, the awakening temperature upper limit Tb is 5°C lower than the preset high temperature Tmax. This facilitates user setting and ensures that the thermal stimulus during the preparation for awakening phase is correlated with the preset high temperature Tmax.

[0076] In this embodiment, in S500, the time close to the wake-up time refers to 5-30 minutes before the wake-up time. By extending the wake-up time, the discomfort caused by the rapid wake-up is eliminated and the wake-up experience is improved.
