  According to the present invention, the seat reference point adjusting means is provided so that the seat reference point in the resting posture is moved forward from the seat reference point in the normal posture. For this reason, it is possible to take a resting posture without tilting the back portion (seat back) itself backward. Since the back portion is not tilted rearward, the footrest (footrest) space for the seated person in the rear seat is not limited.

  Further, by adjusting the seat reference point, in the normal posture support mode, the back angle around the seat reference point in the normal posture is in the range of 10 degrees to 14 degrees, and the seat surface angle of the seat portion is 12 degrees. It is preferably set in a range of ˜15 degrees, and the inclination angle of the back seat surface with respect to the seat seat surface is preferably set to be 85 degrees or more and less than 90 degrees.

In normal posture, it is desirable that the posture is suitable for light work such as reading, eating, or PC operation, but the back angle, seat angle, and inclination angle of the back seat with respect to the seat seat are within the above range. Once set, these light tasks can be easily performed. On the other hand, for airplanes such as domestic flights, it is not necessary to bring deep sleep just because they are resting. Because the seating time in these is 1 to 2 hours, and about 3 hours at the longest. If the seat is designed so as to bring deep sleep, a refreshing wake-up cannot be obtained when getting down. Can not ensure a smooth transition to the behavior of Therefore, in consideration of the sitting time, it is desired that the seat design can ensure a sleep pattern that can provide smooth sleep introduction and a refreshing awakening. For that purpose, it is desirable to set the back angle, the seating surface angle, and the inclination angle of the back seating surface with respect to the seating seating surface in the above-mentioned range, so that the footrest (footrest) ) Space is not limited, the abdominal muscles and back muscles are balanced and there is no unnecessary power, abdominal breathing is facilitated, sleep introduction is performed smoothly, and refreshing awakening is obtained . In the resting posture mode, it is particularly preferable that the back angle is set to 33 degrees, the seat surface angle of the seat portion is set to 25 degrees, and the inclination angle of the back seat surface with respect to the seat portion seat surface is set to 98 degrees.
On the other hand, in the seat structure for an automobile of the present invention in which the seating surface angle of the seat portion is set in the range of 24-28 degrees, preferably 25 degrees, the seat reference point in the first posture is the seat reference point in the second posture. The seat reference point adjusting means is provided so as to move further forward, and the back angle around the seat reference point in the first posture is in the range of 10 to 14 degrees, preferably 12.5 degrees Between the first support and support mode and the second support mode in which the back angle around the seat reference point in the second posture is in the range of 30 to 34 degrees, preferably 33 degrees. The tilt angle is set to be adjustable.
That is, in this seat structure for an automobile, the back angle is set to the first posture support mode by increasing the seating surface angle of the seat portion as described above, and even if the posture is relatively upright, Sometimes a high arousal state is obtained, and when the eye is closed, it is obtained in a relaxed state. Similarly, even when the back angle is set to the second posture support mode and the posture is slightly reclined, a high arousal state when the eyes are opened and a relaxed state when the eyes are closed can be obtained. That is, the seat structure for an automobile of the present invention can maintain the arousal state by adjusting the angle to the above angle by simply closing the eyes in two postures, a relatively upright posture and a slightly reclining posture. You can share a resting position (relaxed state).

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail based on the embodiments shown in the drawings. FIG.1 and FIG.2 is a figure which shows the seat structure 10 which concerns on one Embodiment of this invention. Of these, both the state of the seated person in the normal posture mode and the state of the seated person in the resting posture mode are shown together, but FIG. 1 shows details such as the back angle and the seating surface angle. FIG. 2 shows a seated person sitting in the front seat and the rear seat together.

  As shown in these drawings, the seat reference point can be moved between the seat reference point A in the normal posture and the seat reference point B in the resting posture by the seat reference point adjusting means. The seat reference point refers to a virtual line in the front-rear direction along the seat surface of the seat portion, and a virtual line along the lower back seat surface (described later) located below the substantially central portion in the vertical direction of the back portion. The intersection with line D).

  When viewed from the side, the position of the line C along the upper back seat surface located above the substantially vertical center of the back (seat back) does not change in the normal posture mode or the rest posture mode. On the other hand, the position of the line D along the lower back seating surface located below the substantially vertical central portion of the back changes between the normal posture mode and the rest posture mode. That is, the line D overlaps with the line C in the normal posture mode, but in the rest posture mode, the seat reference point B moves forward, and as a result, the line D tilts backward compared to the normal posture mode.

  In the normal posture mode, the back angle E = 12.5 degrees centered on the seat reference point A in the normal posture is set, the seat surface angle F of the seat portion is set to 13 degrees, and the seat surface of the seat portion is set. The inclination angle G of the back seat surface (line C) with respect to is set to 89.5 degrees.

  In the resting posture mode, the back angle H = 33 degrees centering on the seat reference point B in the resting posture is set, the seating surface angle I of the seating portion is set to 25 degrees, and the back portion of the seating portion with respect to the seating surface is set. The inclination angle J of the seat surface (line D) is set to 98 degrees. In the resting posture mode, the seat reference point moves forward to the B position, and so-called slipping occurs only by setting the back angle H to 33 degrees. Therefore, by adjusting the seating surface angle I to 25 degrees, the inclination angle J of the back seating surface (line D) with respect to the seating surface of the seating unit is set to 98 degrees to prevent the tail slip. As a result, the balance between the back muscles and the abdominal muscles is achieved, and a relaxed state is achieved to promote smooth abdominal breathing.

  The angle values in the normal posture mode and the resting posture mode are most preferably set as described above. However, in the normal posture mode, the back angle E = 10 to 14 degrees and the seating surface angle F = 12 to 15 degrees. The inclination angle G of the back seat surface (line C) with respect to the seat surface of the seat portion can be adjusted in the range of 85 degrees or more and less than 90 degrees. In the rest posture mode, the back angle H = 30 to 34 degrees, the seat surface angle I = 22 to 28 degrees, and the inclination angle J of the back seat surface (line D) with respect to the seat surface J = 95 degrees or more. Adjustment is possible within a range of less than 100 degrees.

  On the other hand, it is preferable to provide a lumbar support 200 as shown in FIG. The lumbar support 200 has a structure including a flexible plate material 210 made of synthetic resin and two bulging bodies 211 and 212 whose central portion is fixed to one surface of the plate member 210. . One of the two bulging bodies 211 and 212 is provided so as to be located in the vicinity of the third lumbar vertebrae corresponding to the seated person's fourth lumbar vertebra, and the other is located in the vicinity of the pelvic upper part. Provided. Thereby, the two bulging bodies 211 and 212 function as support points for supporting the vicinity of the third lumbar vertebra and the vicinity of the upper part of the pelvis. As a result, when the sitting posture changes between the normal posture mode and the resting posture mode, the support pressure of the two bulging bodies 211 and 212 changes following this, so that the supportability of the lumbar portion can be maintained high. .

(Test Example 1)
In order to verify the appropriate angle of the back angle H of the back in the resting posture mode, the subject is seated on the seat, the seat angle of the seating surface is fixed at 25 degrees, and the angle of the back (back angle H) is 26 degrees in the direction of gravity. The fingertip volume pulse wave and the electroencephalogram were measured in the closed eye state by changing every 2 degrees over 30 minutes up to ˜36 degrees. The test subject is a healthy man in his 30s and the sleep latency is around 10 to 15 minutes. The waiting time at each angle is 300 seconds. The waiting time of 300 seconds is less affected by physical fatigue and is smaller than the time width of sleep falling latency and does not lead to sleep, so the influence of changes in the living body caused by sleep is small. Moreover, it is a time width in which concentration can be continued, and this is because it is the minimum time width for calculating a tilt time-series waveform with the fingertip volume pulse wave and seeing the tendency. Furthermore, it is for giving a stimulus by changing the angle of the backrest every 300 seconds and resetting the mental load. The results are shown in FIGS. 4 shows a time series of power value gradients obtained from fingertip plethysmograms and a time series of maximum Lyapunov exponent gradients, FIG. 5 shows an electroencephalogram distribution rate, and FIG. 6 shows an electroencephalogram distribution rate inclination time series. Each is shown.

  From the distribution rate of the electroencephalogram, the subject temporarily experienced microsleep when the backrest angle was 28 degrees, but maintained a stable awakening state when the backrest angle was 30 to 34 degrees. However, when the backrest angle was 34 degrees, the decrease of the θ wave and the increase of the α wave increased in response to the external stimulus, and the α wave predominated. Thereafter, when the backrest angle reached 36 degrees, microsleep occurred again. Next, the results of the tilt time series waveform collected from the fingertip container pulse wave will be described. The power value gradient time-series waveform indicates that the awake state is maintained although the backrest angle is temporarily lowered to 34 degrees due to the influence of micro sleep. However, the amplitude is small between 32 and 34 degrees, indicating that the metabolism is stable and relaxed. From the second half of 34 degrees, despite shifting the angle of the backrest, he maintained the transition to the sleep state. The gradient time-series waveform of the maximum Lyapunov exponent shows a decreasing tendency of wakefulness in the first half of 26 to 30 degrees, and from the latter half of 30 degrees to the first half of 36 degrees, a state of temporary fatigue recovery due to micro sleep can be seen. From the latter half of 36 degrees, there is a tendency for the degree of arousal to decline. In addition, the sleep onset symptom phenomenon occurred in the intermediate experiment time zone of 26 to 28 degrees and 34 degrees. The first sign of sleep onset is characteristic, but the latter half is a relaxed and stable state that needs to be understood in relation to the time series waveform of the Lyapunov exponent. From these experimental results, this subject is in a state of low metabolism but high wakefulness between 30 and 34 degrees, that is, in a state where he is relaxed but can concentrate, and with a slight change in posture, he enters a sleep state. It is assumed that a smooth transition is possible. Therefore, the back angle H in the resting posture mode is preferably in the range of 30 degrees to 34 degrees, more preferably 32 degrees to 33 degrees, and most preferably 33 degrees.

(Test Example 2)
Next, the same subject as described above is seated in a seat set at a back angle H = 33 degrees, a seating surface angle I = 25 degrees, and a tilt angle J = 98 degrees of the back seating surface (line D) with respect to the seating surface of the seating portion. The fingertip volume pulse wave and the electroencephalogram were measured for 60 minutes with the eyes closed. The results are shown in FIG. FIG. 7A shows a time series of power value gradients obtained from the fingertip plethysmogram and a time series of maximum Lyapunov exponent gradients, FIG. 7B shows a time series change of sleep depth, and FIG. c) shows a time-series change in the distribution rate of the electroencephalogram, and FIG. 7 (d) shows a time-series change in the pulse frequency and the respiratory frequency.

  Similarly, the same as described above for the seat set to the back angle E = 12.5 degrees, the seating surface angle F = 13 degrees, and the inclination angle G of the back seating surface (line C) with respect to the seating surface of the seating portion is 89.5 degrees. The subject was seated, and fingertip volume pulse waves and brain waves were measured for 60 minutes with the eyes closed. The results are shown in FIG. FIG. 8A shows a time series of power value gradients obtained from the fingertip plethysmogram and a time series of maximum Lyapunov exponent gradients, FIG. 8B shows a time series change of sleep depth, and FIG. c) shows a time-series change in the distribution rate of the electroencephalogram, and FIG. 8 (d) shows a time-series change in the pulse frequency and the respiration frequency.

For comparison, FIG. 9 shows measurement results when a known aircraft seat is in a fully reclining state and a subject is seated.
Comparing the case where the back angle H = 33 degrees and the seating surface angle I = 25 degrees and the case where the back angle E = 12.5 degrees and the seating surface angle F = 13 degrees, the latter is more frequently awakened. Since the fluctuation range of the breathing frequency and the pulse frequency is large, it can be seen that the former is more suitable as a resting posture. In other words, it is a pattern that allows for a quick sleep and a refreshing awakening.

  FIG. 10 is a graph showing the transition of the fatigue level obtained from the data of FIGS. 7 to 9, and FIG. 11 is a graph showing the transition of the arousal level. FIG. 12 shows the analysis result of the time series frequency of the power value gradient, and FIG. 13 shows the analysis result of the time series frequency of the maximum Lyapunov exponent. From these results, it can be seen that the seat structure of the present embodiment has little accumulation of fatigue and is excellent in comfort.

(Test Example 3)
As shown in FIG. 14, the seating surface angle was fixed at 25 degrees, and the same test as in Test Example 2 was performed by the same test subject as the above test subject in the case of the back angle of 33 degrees and the case of 12.5 degrees. . The reason why the seat surface angle is fixed to 25 degrees is to apply it as a seat structure for an automobile. By fixing the seat surface angle to 24 degrees to 28 degrees, preferably 25 degrees, the back angle is 12.5 degrees. In both cases of the first posture and the second posture with a back angle of 33 degrees, the awake state and the resting state can be obtained with only the opening and closing eyes. The results are shown in FIGS. FIGS. 15A and 16A show data in the open eye state, and FIGS. 15B and 16B show data in the closed eye state.

  At a backrest angle of 12.5 degrees, the electroencephalogram in the open eye state has a higher β wave distribution rate and a lower α wave distribution rate than when the eye is closed. Moreover, it turns out that it is a wakeful state also from the sleep depth. Furthermore, it is presumed that the pulse and respiration are irregular fluctuations earlier than when the eyes are closed, and that the state is a high arousal state corresponding to the change of the external stimulus. In addition, the temporary transition to the second stage of sleep after 40 minutes in the latter half is considered to be sleep resulting from fatigue due to maintaining the same posture. On the other hand, the electroencephalogram in the closed state showed a slight increase in the distribution rate of the θ wave and showed the second stage of sleep within 5 minutes after the start of the experiment. Thereafter, until about 30 minutes, the sleep stage is 1 to 2, the pulse and breathing are slower than the open eye state, and the fingertip pulse wave is less fluctuating, so it can be seen that the sleep state is stable. After 30 minutes, the second stage of sleep is the center, but each index is more fluctuating than the first half but is constant, so the brain is resting, but the body responds to fatigue due to the same posture.

  Next, at a backrest angle of 33 degrees, the open eye state is a high arousal state similar to the 12.5 degree eye open state because the distribution rate of β waves is high. Furthermore, since the amplitude of the time series of the fingertip volume pulse wave is smaller than 12.5 degrees and is a constant fluctuation, it can be said that the state is a relaxed awakening state. On the other hand, in the closed-eye state, the EEG enters the second stage of sleep after the slope time series of the fingertip plethysmogram shows 10 minutes from the start of the experiment, but the brain waves enter the second stage of sleep. It is changing irregularly along with it. Since the pulse and respiration are slow and stable compared to the open eye state, it can be seen that the rest of the brain is lower than 12.5 degrees, but the body is in a relaxed and stable state. From this experiment, it can be seen that an active arousal state can be maintained in the open eye state while two stable postures can be achieved while a stable resting posture can be achieved in the closed eye state.
