Embodiment approach 1

[0065] figure 1 It is a perspective view showing the appearance of the body composition measuring device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention in a measurement-capable state. in addition, figure 2 yes means figure 1 It is an exploded perspective view of the mounting structure of the case of the body composition measuring device shown. First, with reference to these drawings, the appearance structure and the assembly structure of the case of the body composition measurement device according to the present embodiment in the measurement-capable state will be described.

[0066] Such as figure 1 As shown, the body composition measurement device 100A of this embodiment includes a right-hand grip 111 for holding with the right hand, and a left-hand grip 112 for holding with the left hand. Each grip part 111, 112 is formed in a rod shape so that it can be grasped by hand. In the body composition measurement device 100A of the present embodiment, the right-hand g...

Embodiment approach 2

[0103] Figure 11 It is a perspective view of a body composition measurement device according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. First, referring to this figure, the appearance structure of the body composition measurement device according to this embodiment will be described.

[0104] Such as Figure 11 As shown, the body composition measurement device 1000 of this embodiment includes a body composition measurement unit 100B as a first unit, and a body weight measurement unit 200 as a second unit. Body composition measurement unit 100B has substantially the same structure as body composition measurement device 100A in Embodiment 1 described above. Specifically, the body composition measurement unit 100B has a right-hand case 101 provided with a right-hand grip 111 to be held by the right hand, and a left-hand case 102 provided with a left-hand grip 112 to be held by the left hand. , and the main body portion 103 provided with the display portion 128, electrodes 131,...

Embodiment approach 3

[0127]Fig. 17 is a plan view of a body composition measuring device according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. In the body composition measurement device 100C of the present embodiment, both the right side case 101 and the left side case 102 are rotatable relative to the main body 103 as in the body composition measurement unit 100B in the above-mentioned second embodiment. However, the right side case 101 and the left side case 102 are rotatably supported by pivot shafts 101 a and 102 a respectively provided at different positions of the main body portion 103 . That is, the rotation axis O1 of the right-hand grip 111 and the rotation axis O2 of the left-hand grip 112 are arranged at different positions. However, the above-mentioned rotation axis O1 and rotation axis O2 are arranged in parallel.

[0128] Teeth 101 b are provided at the end of the right case 101 housed in the main body 103 , and teeth 102 b are provided at the end of the left case 102 housed in the ma...

Abstract

The invention provides a body composition measuring device (100A) having electrodes (131, 133) for a right hand, made to be in contact with the right hand of a subject, and also has electrodes (132, 134) for a left hand, made to be in contact with the left hand of the subject so to measure the body impedance of the subject. The device body has a rod-like grip portion (111) provided with the electrodes (131, 133) for a right hand, a rod-like grip portion (112) provided with the electrodes (132, 134) for a left hand, and a base portion (103) to which the grip portion (111) for a right hand and the grip portion (112) for a left hand are fixed. The grip portion (111) for a right hand is rotatablely fixed to the base portion (103), and the extending direction of the grip portion (111) for a right hand is differentiated from the extending direction of the rotating shaft thereof. Consequently, a small and thin portable body composition measuring device can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a body composition measuring device capable of measuring body composition by measuring body impedance of a subject. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, there is known a body composition measurement device that measures the body composition of a subject by measuring the impedance of the body. Since the body composition measurement device provides useful information for health management, it is widely used in households and the like. [0003] This body composition measuring device is roughly classified into a type in which only the hands are in contact with the body parts, and a type in which the body parts in contact with the electrodes are both hands and both feet. Compared with the latter, the former has the advantage that the main body of the device can be downsized, and its size can be downsized to a portable level. The latter, on the other hand, is capable of measuring the impedance of different parts of...
