Abstract
The embodiments of the invention provide a snore stopping device. The snore stopping device comprises a sleep information acquisition module used for acquiring actual sleep information of a user; a processing module used for comparing the actual sleep information acquired by the sleep information acquisition module with a normal sleep information range, and capable of generating a trigger signal when the actual sleep information goes beyond the normal sleep information range; and an electric stimulation module used for contacting the skin of the user and generating an electric stimulation signal according to the trigger signal. The snore stopping device can effectively cause the snoring user to change his/her sleeping posture, so as to achieve the snore stopping effect.
