SLEEP INDUCING DEVICE AND SLEEP INDUCING CHAIR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To uniformly vibrate the whole body and quickly induce a sleep by providing a single exciting means vibrating a thin plate-like mounting means mounting a human body in the planar direction, and providing a supporting means allowing the movement of the mounting means in the vibrating direction by the exciting means. ;SOLUTION: This sleep inducing device inducing a sleep is provided with a mount plate 101, a vibration exciter 102, a support member 103, and a mat 104. The mount plate 101 is mounted with a human body, and it is made of a lightweight, high-rigidity, thin plate. The vibration exciter 102 vibrates the mount plate 101 in the planar direction, and it is arranged at the corner section on the front side of the mount plate 101, or it may be arranged at the center section on the side face and at the comer section and center section on the rear side as shown by the vibration exciters 102A-102C. The support member 103 supports the mount plate 101 and allows its movement in the vibrating direction by the vibration exciter 102, and it also serves as an insulator cutting off the transmission of vibrations to the floor surface.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1997,JPO
