Embodiment Construction

[0066] Figure 1 to Figure 3 A general overview of the electrode unit 100 according to one embodiment of the present invention is shown. The electrode unit 100 has three main parts: a female snap connector 120 , an electrode 130 , and a body 110 connecting the female snap connector 120 and the electrode 130 into the electrode unit 100 . The electrode unit 100 is an elongated piece having a snap end 111 for receiving a female snap connector 120 and an opposite electrode end 112 for receiving an electrode 130 . Alternatively, the body 110 may extend beyond the female snap connector 120 and the electrodes 130, whereby the body 110 need not terminate at said ends 111,112.

[0067] The electrode unit 100 is intended to be placed in contact with the user's skin. In particular, the electrode unit 100 can be integrated into a wearable device, such as a heart rate monitor belt or a piece of sports clothing, which is worn around the user's torso in order to place the electrodes 130 at...

Abstract

According to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure, a female snap connector (120) is provided having a base (124) and a cap (121) opposite the base (124) and forming a depth of the female snap connector (120). The female snap connector (120) also includes a receptacle (122) formed in the cap (121) for receiving a post of a mating male snap connector. The base material of the female buckle connector (120) is a conductive polymer or comprises a conductive polymer. The receptacle (122) is arranged to be elastically deformable so as to conform to the passage of the complementary shape of the stud within the receptacle (122) during insertion and removal of the stud in the depth dimension of the female buckle connector (120).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to electromechanical assemblies. More specifically, embodiments of the electrode unit of the present invention are particularly suitable for receiving and holding the male end of a telemetry device, and making electrical connection therewith. Examples of electrode assemblies of the present invention are integrated within a heart rate monitoring strap or garment. Background technique [0002] There are currently heart rate monitoring straps that people can wear under clothing to monitor their heart rate. Such straps are typically designed to removably attach telemetry transmitters to a strap having two electrodes that are in contact with the user's skin in the thoracic region of the user's torso. Electrodes identify ECG pulses caused by the heart, and the detachable telemetry transmitter then uses wireless magnetic near-field communication or radio signals to transmit data representing the user's heartbeat to a ...
