Embodiment Construction

[0042] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail based on examples.

[0043] exist figure 1 Shown in the top view of the body composition measuring meter of this embodiment, in figure 2 The state of use of the body composition meter is shown in .

[0044] This body composition meter 1 is a device for measuring components such as body fat mass rate, fat loss mass rate, visceral fat area, muscle mass, water content, etc. part 2, a handle-shaped meter main body 3 with hand electrodes for in vivo impedance measurement, and a reel wire 10 as a cable for electrically connecting the body weight measuring part 2 and the meter main body 3. The measuring meter main body 3 can be detachably stored in the storage part 8 of the body weight measuring part 2 (refer to Figure 14 and Figure 15 )middle.

[0045] Body weight measurement unit 2 has strain sensors for body weight measurement inside, and left foot electrodes 4L, 5L and right foot electrodes 4R, 5R fo...

Abstract

The body composition meter includes a body weight measuring part 2 having electrodes for foot to measure biological impedance; a meter main body 3 having electrodes for hands to measure the biological impedance; and a curled code 10 as the cable for electrically connecting the body weight measuring part 2 to the composition meter main body 3. The storage part of the body weight measuring part 2 includes an opening for allowing the curled code 10 to be put in / out. The measuring part 2 internally comprises a curled code winding tool for winding-up the curled code 10 and storing it. A part of the curled code 10 is wound-up by the curled code winding tool, and the other part is stored in a part other than the curled code winding tool. To provide a body composition meter for neatly and nicely storing a cable with excellent outer appearance and reducing time in storing the cable.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a body composition meter, and relates to a body composition meter for measuring compositions such as body fat mass rate, fat removal mass rate, visceral fat area, muscle mass, and water content of a living body. Background technique [0002] As for the body composition measuring instrument, such measuring instrument is known, that is, a pair of electrodes is contacted to a suitable place of the living body (for example, right hand-left hand, right foot-left foot, between hands and feet, etc.), and a connection between the two electrodes is connected. Measure current, detect voltage, and measure the impedance of the living body. At the same time, measure the body weight of the subject with a scale, and measure body fat mass and rate based on the measured weight and measured impedance based on the preset age and sex. [0003] As such a body composition measuring instrument, for example, there is such a living body informa...
