SNORE DETECTING DEVICE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a detecting device, improving the detecting accuracy of snore of a sleeper.SOLUTION: This device includes: a vibration detecting part 1 installed to detect vibration generated from a sleeper in bed and outputting an output signal corresponding to the vibration; a snore candidate time detecting part 14 for detecting the time when a signal of frequency corresponding to the frequency of vibration due to snore of the sleeper included in the output signal satisfies a predetermined strength condition as a snore candidate time; and a deciding part 16 for deciding the first snore candidate time among a predetermined number of snore candidate times as the snore start time of the sleeper on detecting a predetermined number or more of the snore candidate times when the interval between the adjacent snore candidate times in timewise is within a predetermined snore interval time.
