first configuration example

[0053]FIG. 6 is a plan view of an air bladder according to a first configuration example. An air bladder 23A of the present configuration example has long sides 71 and 73, which are a pair of opposing sides extending in the wrapping direction on the measurement subject, and a pair of short sides 75 and 77 that extend in a direction orthogonal to the wrapping direction. The air bladder 23A is formed so as to be rectangular in plan view. The aforementioned first welded portion 61 and second welded portions 65 and 67 are formed on the air bladder 23A.

[0054]In addition to the first welded portion 61 and the second welded portions 65 and 67, partial welded portions 79A, 79B, 81A, and 81B, which are formed by the resin sheet 55 being folded such that it vertically overlaps itself in portions of the long sides 71 and 73 and being welded at those portions, are formed on the air bladder 23A. The partial welded portions 79A and 79B are formed on the long side 71, and the partial welded portio...

second configuration example

[0073]FIG. 10 is a plan view of an air bladder according to a second configuration example. With an air bladder 23B of the present configuration example, partial welded portions 99A, 99B, 101A, and 101B that are continuous along the long sides 71 and 73 are formed on the long sides71 and 73 outside of the central region 83. One end of the partial welded portion 99A is connected to the second welded portion 65 on the long side 71 of the air bladder 23B, and the other end extends continuously to the boundary with the central region 83. Similarly, the partial welded portion 99B is connected to the second welded portion 67 and extends continuously to the boundary with the central region 83.

[0074]Also, the partial welded portions 101A and 101B are also similarly connected to the second welded portions 65 and 67 and extend continuously to the boundary with the central region 83.

[0075]A welding margin width W5 from the edge portions (71, 73) of the partial welded portions 99A, 99B, 101A, a...

third configuration example

[0078]FIG. 11 is a plan view showing a cuff in a third configuration example. In consideration of the state of being wrapped around the body being examined, a cuff 13A has a curved belt shape in which one long side 105 is longer than another long side 107. When the cuff 13A is wrapped around the body being examined, the long side 105 is arranged on the proximal side (side close to the torso) of the body being examined, and the shorter long side 107 is arranged on the distal side (side away from the torso) of the body being examined.

[0079]In an air bladder 23C contained in the cuff 13A in this case, partial welded portions 103A and 103B are formed only on the long side 73 arranged toward the long side 105 of the cuff 13A, and no partial welded portion is formed on the long side 107 located on the opposite side.

[0080]According to the above-described configuration, the partial welded portions are arranged at the minimum necessary number of positions, and therefore the expansion of the ...

Abstract

A blood pressure information measurement cuff includes a band-shaped cuff body and a fluid bladder that is connected to the cuff body and is configured to expand / contract with insertion or discharge of a fluid, the blood pressuring information measurement cuff being configured to be used while wrapped around a body being examined. The fluid bladder is formed into a rectangular bag shape by flattening a tube-shaped resin sheet and sealing the two end portions thereof that form openings. A partial welded portion, which is formed by the resin sheet being folded so as to overlap itself and welded, is formed on at least a portion of one of a pair of opposing sides that intersect the sides of the two sealed end portions and extend in a wrapping direction on the body being examined.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a blood pressure information measurement apparatus cuff and a blood pressure information measurement apparatus.BACKGROUND ART[0002]A blood pressure information measurement apparatus acquires blood pressure information such as a pulse wave and a blood pressure value of a measurement subject. When blood pressure information is to be measured using the blood pressure information measurement apparatus, a cuff containing a fluid bladder that pressurizes an artery in a body is first wrapped around a surface of the body. Then, the fluid bladder inside the wrapped cuff is inflated / deflated, and an arterial pressure pulse wave occurring in an artery is detected. Then, various types of blood pressure values are detected based on the detected pulse wave.[0003]Here, “cuff” refers to a belt-shaped structure that has an inner cavity and can be wrapped around a portion of a body, and it indicates an object that is used for measurement of arteri...
