DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the drawings.



FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a smart bed body structure of an embodiment of the invention, and FIG. 2 is a bottom view of the smart bed body structure of the embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a smart bed body 1 structure provided by the invention includes: a bed body 1, a control unit 2, a speech recognition unit 3 and an audio device 4. The control unit 2 is electrically connected with the speech recognition unit 3. The speech recognition unit 3 is electrically connected with the audio device 4. The bed body 1 includes: a load-bearing mechanism 11, at least one turnover mechanism 12 and a base 13. The control unit 2 and the audio device 4 are arranged on the bottom face of the load-bearing mechanism 11. The load-bearing mechanism 11 is arranged on the top face of the base 13. The turnover mechanisms 12 are arranged between the load-bearing mechanism 11 and the base 13, the load-bearing mechanism 11 can be upwards turned over relative to the base 13 by means of the turnover mechanisms 12. The control unit 2 is electrically connected with the turnover mechanisms 12.


The audio device 4 acquires a speech signal and transmits it to the speech recognition unit 3. When recognizing a speech command that matches with a speech command library, the speech recognition unit 3 makes an LED light turn on, the light staying on for a preset time and then turning off, and transmits the recognized command to the control unit 2. The control unit 2 controls the corresponding executive elements, such as the turnover mechanisms, motors of various parts, massage motors, lights under the bed, etc., to make an action corresponding to the speech command. A remote control can also command the control unit 2 to control the corresponding executive elements, but it cannot be performed simultaneously with speech control, and the simultaneous operation of the two will interrupt the actions of each other. The control unit 2, the speech recognition unit 3 and the audio device 4 are all mounted on the bottom face of the bed body 1, are integrated with the bed body 1, do not occupy any home space, and will not appear obtrusive. Speech control is more convenient, and the sense of product grade is higher, which is conducive to attracting customers and increasing sales.


The speech recognition unit 3 adopts an adaptive algorithm, and continuously makes fine adjustments according to a deviation value of a user's speech eigenvalue within an allowable range and an eigenvalue model of a local speech packet to adapt to the user's change in sound rays. The speech recognition unit 3 also has a voiceprint recognition function, that is, it can recognize speech commands issued by different users, and can effectively prevent children from speech control of the electric bed to realize a child lock function. When this function is enabled, the user only needs to read the speech command aloud once, the speech recognition unit 3 recognizing and recording the voiceprint. After that, no second adjustment is required, and the design will adapt to the change.


Preferably, the bed body 1 is combined with offline speech control for local speech recognition without networking, that is, neither the control unit 2 nor the speech recognition unit 3 is connected to the Internet. The response speed is high (0.2 seconds), the size is small, and the cost is low. It can support word recognition of at least hundreds of speech commands, and there is no risk of privacy leakage. The wake-up word is a necessary condition for starting offline speech control, and speech control can only be performed when the wake-up word is recognized. After the speech recognition unit 3 recognizes the wake-up word, an offline speech control system starts, and transmits the corresponding command signal to the control unit 2 according to the valid command word, so that the control unit 2 drives the corresponding executive element. The bed body 1 is provided with the speech recognition unit 3 and the audio device 4. The audio device 4 has buttons to switch between different wake-up words, such as “ergo” and “motion”. Different bed bodies 1 start the speech control system in correspondence to different wake-up words. In a set of speech recognition unit 3 and audio device 4, the offline speech in the speech recognition unit 3 contains different commands, such as “Ergo right raise head (controlling the left bedside to raise)”, “Ergo left raise head (controlling the right bedside to raise)”.


Preferably, the control unit 2 and the speech recognition unit 3 use a neural network processor, which is a hardware processor based on a deep neural network (DNN), so that the acquisition, calculation, and decision-making of speech data are performed locally without relying on the network, the time delay is small, and user privacy can be protected. It supports enhancement of noise reduction by means of a single or dual microphones, realizes 360-degree omni-directional sound pickup, and can suppress environmental noise outside the direction of the target speech, ensuring the accuracy of speech recognition in noisy environments. Autonomous learning by means of a speech model is supported. In the offline state, the user can customize the wake-up word and command word by means of speech entering, which realizes exclusive self-service customization, making it more in line with the usage habit of the user. Also, a special adaptive algorithm is adopted to extract the deviation value of the eigenvalue, update the eigenvalue model of the local speech packet, and adapt to the change in the user's speech eigenvalues that are caused by the growth of age and the change in sound rays.


Further, FIG. 3 is a perspective view of an audio device in an embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the audio device 4 includes: a fixed seat 41, a gooseneck 42, a fixing buckle 43 and a sound pickup microphone 44.

The audio device 4 adopts the gooseneck 42, which can be bent arbitrarily or with multiple joints, and can be fixed to the bottom face of the bed body 1 by means of the fixing buckle 43 when not in use, and pulled out when in use. The height and front and rear positions can be adjusted according to the height of the mattress, usage is convenient and the appearance is attractive, multi-microphone sound pickup is realized, the recognition rate is higher.


Further, FIG. 4 is a partially enlarged view of the audio device in the embodiment of the invention. As shown in FIG. 4, the sound pickup microphone 44 includes: a sound pickup transmitter 441, an indicator light 442, a transparent hose 443 and a hollow shell 444. The sound pickup transmitter 441 is arranged at one end of the shell 444, the other end of the shell 444 being connected with the gooseneck 42, the indicator light 442 is arranged in the shell 444. The middle of the shell 444 is provided with an opening matched with the transparent hose 443, the transparent hose 443 being arranged in the opening. The indicator light 442 is arranged in the shell 444 and aligned with the transparent hose 443.


The sound pickup transmitter 441 is arranged in a port at one end of the shell 444, which is conducive to sound acquisition. When the indicator light 442 works, light can be transmitted from the transparent hose 443 to remind the user to pay attention to the real-time state of the bed body 1 by presetting different colors correspond to different scenarios, which is fast and efficient.


Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the load-bearing mechanism 11 includes: a first bed board 111, a second bed board 112 and a third bed board 113. The first bed board 111, the second bed board 112 and the third bed board 113 are arrayed in sequence. The first bed board 111 and the second bed board 112 are in pivot connection at a junction.


The multiple bed boards are connected to form the load-bearing mechanism 11 that can be turned over and deformed locally or as a whole. In this way, by matching the corresponding turnover mechanism 12, a certain or several bed boards can be turned over relative to the base 13, and the load-bearing mechanism 11 can be deformed. The shape of the load-bearing mechanism 11 can adjusted according to the needs of the user so as to meet different needs of sleeping postures, which is more in line with the curve of a human body, and brings the user a more comfortable experience.


Further, as shown in FIG. 2, each of the turnover mechanisms 12 includes: a driving motor 121, a supporting rod 122, a first sliding rod 123 and a second sliding rod 124. The moving end of the driving motor 121 is in pivot connection with the supporting rod 122, the fixed end of the driving motor 121 being in pivot connection with the base 13, the operating direction of the driving motor 121 being parallel to the direction from the first bed board 111 to the third bed board 113. The supporting rod 122 is fixedly connected with the base 13, the supporting rod 122 being perpendicular to the direction from the first bed board 111 to the third bed board 113. The moving end of the first sliding rod 123 and the moving end of the second sliding rod 124 are provided with pulleys 5, respectively, the fixed end of the first sliding rod 123 and the fixed end of the second sliding rod 124 being fixedly connected with the supporting rod 122, respectively. The horizontal direction from the fixed end of the first sliding rod 123 and the fixed end of the second sliding rod 124 to the respectively corresponding pulleys 5 is parallel to the horizontal direction from the supporting rod 122 to the fixed end of the driving motor 121.


When the driving motor 121 works, it pushes the supporting rod 122 to rotate, the supporting rod 122 driving the first sliding rod 123 and the second sliding rod 124 to rotate, the pulleys 5 making contact with the bottom face of a certain corresponding bed board and sliding to gradually push the bed board to be upwards turned over relative to the base 13. The lengths of the first sliding rod 123 and the second sliding rod 124 determine the upper limit of the turnover angle. The number of the turnover mechanisms 12 can be set as required. For example, a turnover mechanism 12 is arranged between the first bed board 111 and the base 13 to realize local deformation of the load-bearing mechanism 11. For another example, a turnover mechanism 12 is arranged under each of the first bed board 111 and the third bed board 113, and the two turnover mechanism 12 work cooperatively to push the first bed board 111 and the third bed board 113, so that the load-bearing mechanism 11 becomes an “S” shape. The turnover mechanisms 12 are simple and practical, and the cost is low. The use of the pulleys 5 makes the turnover process smoother, and the stuck sense is not prone to occurring in the deformation process.


Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the smart bed body structure further includes: at least one connecting rod 6. The two ends of the connecting rod 6 are in pivot connection with the base 13 and the tail 7 of the third bed board 113, respectively. The turnover mechanisms 12 are arranged between the third bed board 113 and the base 13.


By additionally arranging one or two connecting rods 6, the turnover direction and angle of the third bed board 113 can be limited. Under the action of the connecting rods 6, the third bed board 113 will be upwards raised as a whole, and the head 8 of the third bed board 113 will be upwards turned over, which is in line with joints of human legs and enhances the user's comfort.


Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the base 13 includes: a front frame 131 and a rear frame 132. The front frame 131 and the rear frame 132 are in pivot connection at a junction. The first bed board 111 and the second bed board 112 are arranged on the top face of the front frame 131, the third bed board 113 being arranged on the top face of the rear frame 132.


The base 13 is divided into two portions that are matched with the corresponding bed boards, which facilitates folding of the bed body 1, the bed body 1 can be assembled in the factory, and the user can use the bed body 1 only by unfolding it. The bed body 1 is packaged after being folded, which reduces its packaging volume, reduces the transportation cost, and enhances product competitiveness.


Furthermore, bed feet can also be additionally arranged as required. For example, six bed feet are additionally arranged, that is, the head and the tail are each provided with two bed feet, and the pivot joint of the front frame 131 and the rear frame 132 is also additionally provided with two bed feet to jack the middle and prevent collapse, which facilitates adjustment of the height of the bed body 1.


Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the smart bed body structure further includes: slide rails 9. The matched slide rails 9 are arranged on the bottom face of the load-bearing mechanism 11 corresponding to the pulleys 5.


The pulleys 5 slide on the bottom surface of the load-bearing mechanism 11 and, after long-term use, will wear the load-bearing mechanism 11, and even cause local deformation of the load-bearing mechanism 11. According to the number and positions of the pulleys 5, corresponding slide rails are arranged, and by additionally arranging the slide rails 9, the wear of the load-bearing mechanism 11 can be reduced, the deformation of the load-bearing mechanism 11 can be prevented, and the service life of the load-bearing mechanism 11 can be prolonged.


Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the smart bed body structure further includes: a stop rod 10. The stop rod 10 is arranged at the tail 7 of the third bed board 113.


In the turnover and deformation processes of the load-bearing mechanism 11, the mattress that is placed thereon can move, while by additionally arranging the stop rod 10, the mattress can be prevented from sliding off in the turnover and deformation processes of the load-bearing mechanism 11.
