US 2012/0071798 A1 · CRANIAL DEVICE WITH ROTARY TILT SENSOR

Abstract

The invention relates to an improved cranial device with a rotary inclination detector, including a container box which can be secured to the cranium of sleeping person and which contains an electric motor and an eccentric counterweight coupled thereto, forming a vibrator. The device also includes a battery or a battery holder for at least one battery, which is provided with two axially opposed projecting contacts or studs. The container box is provided with inclined formations with dielectric properties, on which the battery or battery holder can roll by means of the studs thereof, and two electric contacts on which the inclined formations terminate, such that, when the battery holder is placed on the electric contacts, the motor circuit is closed, thereby activating the vibrator.

A cranial device with rotary tilt sensor, the cranial device comprising

a container box configured to attach to the skull of a sleeper,
an electrical motor housed inside the container box,
an eccentric counterweight coupled to the electrical motor to form a vibrator,
a power cell holder housing at least one power cell, the power cell including two axially opposed overhanging contacts, and
wherein the container box includes at least two tilted structures with dielectric characteristics over which the power cell holder can roll supported on the overhanging contacts, and two electrical contacts,
the tilted structures terminating so that when the power cell holder comes to rest over the two electrical contacts the at least one power cell is electrically connected with the electrical motor to activating activate the vibrator.
