Schlaf- und WachgerätSleep and wake device BeschreibungDescription
Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein batteriebetriebenes Gerät, das über eine spezielle Antenne elektromagnetische Wechselfelder aussendet und für einen erholsamen Schlaf- oder Wachzustand sorgt. Mit einem Schalter kann die gewünschte Betriebsart "Schlafen" oder "Wachsein" eingestellt werden.The invention relates to a battery-operated device that emits alternating electromagnetic fields via a special antenna and ensures a restful sleep or wakefulness. The desired operating mode "sleep" or "wake" can be set using a switch.
Zum Stand der Technik:State of the art:
Es sind auf dem Markt verschiedene Geräte der eingangs genannten Art bekannt, die mit unterschiedlichsten oder einstellbaren Frequenzen und Feldstärken arbeiten.There are various devices of the type mentioned above on the market that work with different or adjustable frequencies and field strengths.
Es sollte jedoch nicht dem Anwender überlassen werden diese komplexen Einstellungen selbst vorzunehmen. Es ist bekannt, daß das menschliche Gehirn im Schlafzustand ein EEG Rhytmus von ungefähr 2 Hz einnimmt. Diese Frequenz ist nicht konstant. Sie besteht vielmehr aus einem Frequenzgemisch von Delta-Wellen (< 2Hz); Theta-Wellen (2-7Hz) und sogenannten Schlafspindeln (11-13 Hz) unterschiedlichster Amplituten.However, it should not be left to the user to make these complex settings themselves. It is known that the human brain adopts an EEG rhythm of approximately 2 Hz when asleep. This frequency is not constant. Rather, it consists of a frequency mixture of delta waves (< 2 Hz); theta waves (2-7 Hz) and so-called sleep spindles (11-13 Hz) of various amplitudes.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, diese resultierende Wellenform bestehend aus dem oben beschriebenen Frequenzgemisch elektronisch zu erzeugen und ein entsprechendes elektromagnetisches Umfeld zu schaffen.The object of the invention is to electronically generate this resulting waveform consisting of the frequency mixture described above and to create a corresponding electromagnetic environment.
Ein solches elektromagnetisches Umfeld in der Nähe des menschlichen Körpers bringt den Anwender in relativ kurzer Zeit in den Schlafzustand.Such an electromagnetic environment close to the human body puts the user into a sleep state in a relatively short time.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruches 1.This object is achieved according to the invention by the characterizing features of claim 1.
Anhand eines vereinfachten Blockschaltbildes, soll die Erfindung näher erläutert und beschrieben werden.The invention will be explained and described in more detail using a simplified block diagram.
Fig. 1 BlockschaltbildFig. 1 Block diagram
Es sei Bezug genommen auf Fig. 1.Reference is made to Fig. 1.
Nach Betätigen der Startaste 4 werden alle Komponenten über einen programmierbaren Timer 5 mit Hilfsenergie 11 versorgt. Die Frequenzgeneratoren 1 bis 3 schwingen asynchron mit der vom Betriebartenschalter 6 "Schlafen oder Wachen" ausgewählten Frequenz. Diese 3 oder mehr Frequenzen werden in der Mischstufe 7 mit entsprechender Amplitute addiert und über den Impulsverstärker 8 dem elektomagnetischen Wandler 9 zugeführt. Der elektrische Strom, der durch den elektomagnetischen Wandler fließt, wird zur Funktionsüberwachung über eine Leuchtdiode 10 angezeigt.After pressing the start button 4, all components are supplied with auxiliary energy 11 via a programmable timer 5. The frequency generators 1 to 3 oscillate asynchronously with the frequency selected by the "sleep or wake" operating mode switch 6. These 3 or more frequencies are added in the mixer stage 7 with the corresponding amplitude and fed to the electromagnetic converter 9 via the pulse amplifier 8. The electrical current that flows through the electromagnetic converter is displayed via a light-emitting diode 10 for function monitoring.
Der elektomagnetische Wandler 9 kann als eisenlose Spule, gedruckte Spule, oder als Spule mit Eisen- oder Ferritkern ausgebildet sein. Auch sind verschiedene Spulenformen wie zylinder-, oder flächenförmige möglich.The electromagnetic converter 9 can be designed as an ironless coil, a printed coil, or as a coil with an iron or ferrite core. Various coil shapes, such as cylindrical or flat, are also possible.
Das Schlaf- und Wachgerät kann über den Timer 5 so programmiert werden, daß es z.B. vor dem Schlafengehen für eine bestimmte Zeit den Schlafrhythmus und vor dem Aufstehen für eine bestimmte Zeit den Wachrhythmus aussendet. Die Impuls - und Pausezeiten können in sehr großen Bereichen eingestellt werden.
Medizinische Untersuchungen haben ergeben, das Magnetfelder mit anderen Frequenzen eine heilende Wirkung bei psychosomatischen Beschwerden und rheumatischen Erkrankungen ausüben können. Es wurde unter anderem auch festgestellt, daß bei Frequenzen unter 8 Hz Blutgefäßerweiterungen und bei Frequenzen über 12Hz hingegen Blutgefäßverengungen auftreten. Es besteht also auch die Aussicht, daß Raucher mit Hilfe dieses Gerätes entwöhnt werden können.The sleep and wake device can be programmed using timer 5 so that, for example, it sends out the sleep rhythm for a certain time before going to bed and the wake rhythm for a certain time before getting up. The pulse and pause times can be set over a very wide range.
Medical studies have shown that magnetic fields with other frequencies can have a healing effect on psychosomatic complaints and rheumatic diseases. It has also been found that frequencies below 8 Hz cause blood vessels to dilate, while frequencies above 12 Hz cause blood vessels to constrict. There is therefore also the prospect that smokers can be weaned off with the help of this device.
