Problems solved by technology

One of the reasons for this is that the subcutaneous fat accumulated on the abdominal side is thinner than the subcutaneous fat accumulated on the back side, so when the electrodes are placed in contact with the abdomen, the applied current will flow, and thus prone to error

Abstract

A body fat measuring apparatus comprises a torso width measuring unit (100A) provided with a torso width detecting part to detect the torso width of a subject. The torso width measuring unit (100A) has a frame shape capable of being positioned so as to surround the torso (301) of a subject, and comprises: base parts (101) which do not move relative to the torso (301) when positioned so as to surround the torso (301); and a movable part (102) which is movably attached to the base parts (101) so as to be able to move relative to the torso (301) when positioned so as to surround the torso (301). The torso width detecting part comprises at least non-contact type distance measuring sensors (SA1, SA2) disposed on the movable part (102).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a body fat measurement device capable of calculating a subject's body fat mass by measuring bioimpedance, and more particularly, to a body fat measurement device capable of easily measuring body fat mass such as visceral fat mass. Background technique [0002] In recent years, body fat mass has attracted attention as one of indicators for knowing the health status of a subject. In particular, visceral fat mass has attracted attention as an index for judging whether visceral fat-type obesity is present. This visceral fat-type obesity is considered to cause lifestyle-related diseases, and lifestyle-related diseases are likely to cause arteriosclerosis such as diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. From the viewpoint of preventing these diseases, effective use of the above indicators is expected. Here, visceral fat refers to fat accumulated around the internal organs inside the abdominal muscles and back muscles. In...
