[0005] Patent Document 1: Chinese Patent No. 102058404 Summary of the invention

[0006] Problems to be solved by the invention

[0007] Generally speaking, blood pressure measurement is not completed once, but is performed repeatedly at a certain frequency. However, in the sphygmomanometer of Patent Document 1, although it can be carried together with the main body in a state where the portable terminal is set on the carrier, the cuff connected to the main body by a tube and exposed when not in use is not suitable for carrying together with the main body. In addition, the cuff of the sphygmomanometer of Patent Document 1 is also exposed when in use, resulting in a poor appearance. Therefore, there is a tendency to store it in the room instead of being placed in the room when not in use so as not to be noticed. Once it is stored, it is troublesome for the user to measure it next time. In this way, in the sphygmomanometer of Patent Document 1, although it can be operated using a portable terminal, it is not suitable for carrying and has a poor appearance, resulting in a reduction in the measurement frequency.

[0008] An object of the present invention is to contribute to ensuring the frequency of measurement by improving the portability and appearance of a blood pressure monitor that can be operated using a portable terminal.

[0009] Technical solutions to the problem

[0010] One embodiment of the present invention provides a blood pressure meter that can be operated using a portable terminal, wherein the blood pressure meter comprises: a main body shell; a cuff for compressing a measured part of a person being measured; and a communication unit for performing wireless communication with the portable terminal; the main body shell comprises: a cuff storage unit for removably storing the cuff; and a portable terminal setting unit for setting the portable terminal.

[0011] Both a cuff storage part and a portable terminal setting part are provided on the main body housing. In other words, the cuff storage part and the portable terminal setting part are integrally provided on the main body housing. Therefore, in a state where the cuff is stored in the cuff storage part and the portable terminal is set in the portable terminal setting part, that is, in a state where the main body housing, the cuff, and the portable terminal are integrated, it can be easily carried. In addition, when not in use, by being accommodated in the cuff storage part, the cuff will not be in an exposed state, and the appearance is excellent. Therefore, it is not necessary to store it out of sight, and it can be placed in the room like this. In this way, this sphygmomanometer can not only be operated using the portable terminal, but is also easy to carry and has an excellent appearance, which helps to ensure the measurement frequency.

[0012] The portable terminal setting part may also have a support wall surface that supports the lower part of the portable terminal that is inclinedly arranged, the cuff storage part may also support the upper part of the portable terminal that is inclinedly arranged, and the part between the lower part and the upper part of the portable terminal arranged in the portable terminal setting part may also be separated from the main body housing.

[0013] The portable terminal inclinedly arranged in the portable terminal setting part is supported in a state where the part between the upper part and the lower part is separated from the main body housing. That is, the mobile phone stands against the main body housing in a state where the part between the upper part and the lower part is separated from the main body housing. Therefore, even if accessories such as a ring are installed on the portable terminal, the portable terminal can be stably set.

[0014] The portable terminal setting may also have a protruding part, and the wall surface on the side of the cuff storage part of the protruding part constitutes the support wall surface.

[0015] The portable terminal setting part may also have a groove part, and the groove wall surface on the side opposite to the cuff storage part of the groove part constitutes the support wall surface.

[0016] This sphygmomanometer may also have a detection element for detecting whether the portable terminal is set in the portable terminal setting part.

[0017] The detection element may also be an infrared light receiving and emitting element that detects whether the portable terminal is set between the support wall surface and the part of the main body housing opposite to the support wall surface.

[0018] The height of the support wall surface may also be set to 8 mm or less.

[0019] By setting the height of the support wall surface in this way, the operations of the touch panel, buttons, sensors, etc. on the lower end side of the portable terminal arranged in the portable terminal setting part will not be hindered.

[0020] The portable terminal setting part may also have avoidance parts that are open on the side part or the front part side of the main body housing at both ends.

[0021] With this structure, a notepad-type portable terminal and a portable terminal with a notepad-type phone case can be set in an extended state in the portable terminal setting unit.

[0022] The portable terminal setting unit can also be set on the right side when viewing the main body housing.

[0023] By setting the portable terminal setting unit on the right side when viewed from the front, the operability of the portable terminal set in the portable terminal setting unit is improved for right-handed subjects.

[0024] The sphygmomanometer can also have: a first display unit that displays the measurement result; and an operation unit that accepts an instruction from the subject including an instruction related to the operation of the cuff; the first display unit and the operation unit are set at a position on the main body housing hidden behind the portable terminal set in the portable terminal setting unit.

[0025] When the portable terminal is set in the portable terminal setting unit, the first display unit and the operation unit of the sphygmomanometer are hidden by the portable terminal. Therefore, the subject can operate the sphygmomanometer using the portable terminal without hesitation.

[0026] The cuff storage unit can also be a cylindrical shape with an opening at the upper end, and the opening can be closed in an openable and closable manner by a lid.

[0027] The cuff storage unit can also have a slit through which a tube connected to the cuff is inserted.

[0028] A connector mounting portion can also be provided in the cuff storage unit, and a connector for connecting the tube to the air piping on the main body housing side is mounted on the connector mounting portion. The lower end of the slit can also be located at a position lower than the connector mounting portion.

[0029] By setting the lower end of the slit at a position lower than the connector mounting portion, even if water intrudes into the cuff storage unit when the lid is opened, the intruded water can be discharged from the lower end of the slit to the outside of the cuff storage unit, thereby preventing water from flowing into the inside of the sphygmomanometer from the connector mounting portion.

[0030] The main body housing can also have an electrical component accommodation portion in a part other than the bottom side of the cuff storage unit, and the electrical component accommodation portion accommodates electrical components including a pump for supplying fluid to the cuff.

[0031] With this structure, the height of the cuff storage unit can be suppressed.

[0032] It is also possible to have a second display unit for displaying rewards for blood pressure measurement at a position different from the first display unit of the sphygmomanometer.

[0033] Advantages of the Invention

[0034] The sphygmomanometer of the present invention can not only be operated using a portable terminal, but is also easy to carry and has an excellent appearance, which can help ensure the measurement frequency. Brief Description of the Drawings

[0058] Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings

[0059] Referring to Figures 1 to 9 , the sphygmomanometer 1 of the present embodiment includes a sphygmomanometer main body 2 and a cuff 4. The sphygmomanometer main body 2 includes a main body housing 3 and various electrical components including a pump 11 (illustrated in Figure 10 , 11 ) accommodated in the main body housing 3. The cuff 4 can be wound into a cylindrical shape in a band shape and is used by winding it around the upper arm of the subject. As will be described in detail later, the sphygmomanometer 1 can be installed with a smartphone 6 as an example of a portable terminal and can be operated by the smartphone 6. Examples of the portable terminal other than the smartphone include a tablet-type portable information terminal. For example, as long as it can communicate with the sphygmomanometer 1 via BLE communication, the specific structure is not particularly limited. In addition, as will be described in detail later, the sphygmomanometer 1 can removably accommodate the cuff 4 in a cuff storage portion 33 provided in the main body housing 3

[0060] Refer to together Figure 10 、 11 11 , a CPU 7, a memory 8, a power supply 9 (a secondary battery in this embodiment), a pressure sensor 10, a pump 11, and a valve 12 are accommodated in the main body housing 3. The power supply 9 in this embodiment is charged using a commercial power supply via a power cord 13, but the power supply 9 can also be wirelessly charged by configuring the sphygmomanometer 1 on a charging cradle or the like. In addition, an A / D conversion circuit 14 that converts the output of the pressure sensor 10 from an analog signal to a digital signal, a pump drive circuit 15 that drives the pump 11, and a valve drive circuit 16 that drives the valve 12 are accommodated in the main body housing 3. The pressure sensor 17, the pump 11, and the valve 12 are fluidly connected via an air pipe 18 to an air bag (not shown) provided in the cuff 4. Moreover, a communication unit 19 that performs wireless communication with the smartphone 6 is accommodated in the main body housing 3.

[0061] On the main body housing 3, there are provided: an operation unit 20 that accepts an instruction from a subject including an instruction related to the operation of the cuff 4; a first display unit 21 that is used to display measurement results and the like; and a second display unit 22 that performs a display for displaying a blood pressure measurement reward. In this embodiment, the operation unit 20 has a plurality of buttons, the first display unit 21 is composed of a liquid crystal display panel, and the second display unit 22 is composed of an LED lamp.

[0062] The CPU 7 uniformly controls the overall operation of the sphygmomanometer 1. In particular, the CPU 7 causes the pump 11 and the valve 12 to operate via the pump drive circuit 15 and the valve drive circuit 16 respectively according to the input from the subject accepted by the operation unit 20 or the smartphone 6 and the control program stored in the memory 8, and controls the pressure (cuff pressure) of the air bag in the cuff 4 by supplying air to the air bag of the cuff 4, thereby performing blood pressure measurement. The cuff pressure is detected by the pressure sensor 17. In addition, the CPU 7 displays the measurement result on the first display unit 21.

[0063] Refer to Figures 1 to 9 Figures 1 to 9 , when viewed from the front, the main body housing 3 has a smartphone setting portion 31 for setting the smartphone 6 on the right half side in the front, an electrical component accommodation portion 32 on the left half side in the front, and a cuff storage portion 33 that extends over the entire width direction on the inside. A panel portion 34 is provided between the smartphone setting portion 31 and the cuff storage portion 33, and the operation unit 20 and the first display unit 21 are provided on the upper surface of the panel portion 34. The cuff storage portion 33 is connected to the cuff storage portion 33 on the inside when viewed from the front.

[0064] As Figure 5As shown, the height H1 of the smartphone setting part 31 is the lowest, the height H2 of the panel part 34 is slightly higher than the height H1 of the smartphone setting part 31. In addition, the height H3 of the electrical component accommodating part 32 is significantly higher than the height H1 of the smartphone setting part 31, and the height H4 of the cuff accommodating part 33 is significantly higher than the height H3 of the electrical component accommodating part 33. The total height of the main body housing 3 is the height H4 of the cuff accommodating part 33.

[0065] The electrical component accommodating part 32 has a sufficient height H3. When viewed from the front, it occupies about half of the width of the main body housing 3, and the depth also exceeds half of the main body housing 3. That is, the electrical component accommodating part 32 has a sufficient volume. A plurality of electrical components including the pump 11, which is the largest electrical component, are accommodated in such an electrical component accommodating part 32. Therefore, the components in the other parts of the main body housing 3, namely the bottom of the cuff accommodating part 33, the smartphone setting part 31, and the panel part 34, can be minimized. In particular, by minimizing the electrical components accommodated in the bottom of the cuff accommodating part 33, the height H4 of the cuff accommodating part 33, that is, the total height of the main body housing 3, can be reduced. In addition, the heights H1 and H2 of the smartphone setting part 31 and the panel part 34 can also be reduced.

[0066] Hereinafter, the smartphone setting part 31 will be described.

[0067] The smartphone setting part 31 has a flat upper surface. When viewed from the front, there is an avoidance part 31a that opens to the right end of the main body housing 3 at the right end, and an avoidance part 31b that opens to the front end of the main body housing 3 at the front end.

[0068] In the smartphone setting part 31, there is an elongated rectangular parallelepiped-shaped protruding part 35 extending in the width direction of the main body housing 3 on the most laborious side when viewed from the front. Referring to Figures 12 to 14 , the smartphone 6 is supported by the protruding part 35 at the lower part and by the cuff accommodating part 33 at the upper back side, and thus is set in the smartphone setting part 31 in a tilted-back state. More specifically, the wall surface of the protruding part 35 on the side of the cuff accommodating part 33 supports the lower part of the tilted-back smartphone 6 so as not to move forward, and the cuff accommodating part 33 supports the upper part of the tilted-back smartphone 6 so as not to tilt back further. In the present embodiment, when looking down at the cuff accommodating part 33 (more specifically, the lid 41 described later), the front top edge supports the smartphone 6. However, when the smartphone 6 is smaller than the present embodiment, the top of the smartphone 6 is supported by the front side part of the cuff accommodating part 33 (more specifically, the lid 41 described later). In addition, as described later, even when the lid 41 is removed, the upper part of the smartphone 6 is supported by the cuff accommodating part 33 itself in the same manner.

[0069] The inclination angle θ of the rearward tilt of the smartphone 6 provided in the smartphone setting unit 31 ( Figure 14 as shown in the figure) is not particularly limited as long as visibility can be ensured, and can be set, for example, to 65 degrees or more and 70 degrees or less.

[0070] As Figure 12 , 14 As most clearly shown in 15, the smartphone 6 that is rearwardly tilted and provided on the smartphone setting unit 31 is supported in a state where the portion between the upper and lower parts is separated from the main body housing 3. That is, the smartphone 6 stands against the main body housing 3 in a state where the portion between the upper and lower parts is separated from the main body housing 3. Therefore, even if an accessory such as a ring is attached to the back of the smartphone 6, the smartphone 6 can be stably set on the smartphone setting unit 31.

[0071] Refer to Figure 1 , 2 , 9 to 11, 15. An infrared light emitting element 37 is provided on a part of the support wall surface 35a of the protruding part 35 provided in the smartphone setting unit 3, and an infrared light receiving element 38 is provided on the front surface 34a of the panel part 34, which is the part opposite to the support wall surface 35a of the main body housing 3. When the power of the sphygmomanometer 1 is turned on, infrared rays are emitted from the infrared light emitting element 37 to the infrared light receiving element 38. For example, as Figure 1 shown, if the smartphone 6 is not set on the smartphone setting unit 31, the infrared light receiving element 38 always receives infrared rays. However, for example, as Figure 12 shown, if the smartphone 6 is set on the smartphone setting unit 31, the infrared rays emitted from the infrared light emitting element 37 are blocked by the smartphone 6, and the infrared light receiving element 38 no longer receives infrared rays. When the CPU 7 detects the stop of infrared light reception by the infrared light receiving element 38, the communication with the smartphone 6 by the communication unit 19 is started, and the functions of the first display unit 21 and the operation unit 20 are temporarily stopped, and the reception of instructions from the subject and the display of measurement results and the like are switched to the smartphone 6.

[0072] The setting detection of the smartphone 6 on the smartphone setting unit 31 is not limited to the combination of the infrared light emitting element 37 and the infrared light receiving element 38 as in this embodiment. As such an alternative structure, for example, there is a switch that reacts when physically pressed when the smartphone 6 is disposed on the smartphone setting unit 31 (such as a switch like the measurement button of an existing sphygmomanometer). In this case, it can also be configured to measure blood pressure when the switch is pressed by the smartphone 6. In addition, a capacitive proximity sensor or NFC (Near Field Communication) between the sphygmomanometer 1 and the smartphone 6 can also be used to detect the setting of the smartphone 6 on the smartphone setting unit 31.

[0073] Refer to Figure 3 ,12 15, the operation unit 20 and the first display unit 21 provided on the panel unit 34 of the main body housing 3 are provided at a position hidden behind the smartphone 6 when the smartphone 6 is set in the smartphone setting unit 31. When the smartphone 6 is set in the smartphone setting unit 31, the operation unit 20 and the first display unit 21 are hidden, so that the person being measured can operate the blood pressure monitor 1 using the smartphone 6 without hesitation.

[0074] As described above, the smartphone installation portion 31 has open escape portions 31a and 31b at both ends. Figure 13 The smartphone 6 with the notepad-type case 40 attached thereto or the notepad-type smartphone 6 as shown can also be placed in the smartphone placement section 31 in an expanded state.

[0075] Reference Figure 1 The distance D1 from the support wall 35a of the raised portion 35 provided in the smartphone setting portion 31 to the front 34a of the panel portion 34 opposite to the support wall 35a is not particularly limited, but is preferably set so that even a thick smartphone 6 or a smartphone 6 housed in a mobile phone case can be set in the smartphone setting portion 31.

[0076] Reference Figure 14 , 15 The support wall surface 35 a and the front surface 34 a are provided with an inclination, and the inclination is provided to stabilize the lower end of the smartphone 6 when the smartphone 6 is placed in the smartphone placement portion 31 .

[0077] Reference Figure 2 The height of the protrusion 35 provided on the smartphone installation portion 31, that is, the height H5 of the support wall 35a is preferably set to 8 mm or more. By setting the height H5 of the support wall 35a in this way, the operation of the touch panel, buttons, sensors, etc. provided on the lower end side of the smartphone 6 on the smartphone installation portion 31 will not be hindered by the protrusion 35.

[0078] As described above, the smartphone setting portion 31 is provided on the right side when the main body housing 3 is viewed from the front. By providing the smartphone setting portion 31 on the right side, the operability of the smartphone 6 provided on the smartphone setting portion 31 is improved for a right-handed subject.

[0079] Next, the cuff storage unit 33 will be described.

[0080] Reference Figures 1 to 9, the cuff storage part 33 in this embodiment is tubular with an orbital shape in a top view and an opening 33a at the upper end, and the opening 33a is closed by a lid 41 that can be detached from the cuff storage part 33. The lid 41 has a flat top wall 41a and a peripheral wall 41b extending from the periphery of the top wall 41a. The lid 41 is not limited to a detachable lid, as long as it can open and close to close the opening 33a. For example, it can also be a sliding type, a hinge type, a member connected to the cuff accommodation part 31 via a flexible thin wall part, etc.

[0081] Refer to Figure 2 , 3 , 7, 9, when viewing the cuff storage part 33 from the front, a slit 33b extending in the vertical direction is provided on the right side part, and this slit 33b is for inserting a tube 42 whose one end is connected to the cuff 4 when taking out the cuff 4 from the cuff storage part 33. The other end of the tube 42 is connected to a connector 43. The tube 42 is connected to the air pipe 18 via this connector 43. As Figure 9 shown, the connector 43 is installed in a connector installation part 44a, and this connector installation part 44a is a through hole of a partition wall 44 provided between the cuff storage part 33 and the electrical component accommodation part 32. The lower end 33C of the slit 33b is located at a position lower than the connector installation part 44. Therefore, even when water intrudes into the cuff storage part 33 when the lid 41 is released, the intruded water can be discharged from the lower end 33C of the slit 33b to the outside of the cuff storage part 33, and it is possible to prevent water from flowing into the inside of the sphygmomanometer 1 from the connector installation part 44, and more specifically, it is possible to prevent it from flowing into the electrical component accommodation part 32.

[0082] Both the cuff storage part 33 and the smartphone setting part 31 are provided on the main body case 3. In other words, the cuff storage part 33 and the smartphone setting part 31 are integrally provided on the main body case 3. Therefore, the cuff 4 is stored in the cuff storage part 33, and in the state where the smartphone 6 is set in the smartphone setting part 31, that is, in the state where the main body case 3, the cuff 4, and the smartphone 6 are integrated, it is easy to carry. In particular, as Figure 8 shown, a groove 3a for hanging the hand is provided on the back surface of the main body case 3.

[0083] In addition, when not in use, by being accommodated in the cuff storage part 33, the cuff 4 and the tube 43 will not be in an exposed state, and the appearance is excellent. Therefore, it is not necessary to store it out of sight, and it can be placed in the room like this. In this way, the sphygmomanometer 1 of this embodiment can not only be operated using the smartphone 6, but is also easy to carry and has an excellent appearance, which helps to ensure the measurement frequency.

[0084] Refer to Figure 1, in the present embodiment, the second display unit 22 for displaying the above-mentioned blood pressure measurement reward is located at a position different from the first display unit 21 provided on the panel unit 34, and more specifically, it is provided in front of the electrical component accommodation unit 32. In the present embodiment, the second display unit 22 is provided at the upper front of the electrical component accommodation unit 32, and more specifically, at a height H6 that is more than 1 / 2 of the distance from the lowermost end to the uppermost end of the main body housing 3. This is to improve the visibility of the second display unit 22, and the subject can more easily notice the display for the blood pressure measurement reward. The position and height of the second display unit 22 are not particularly limited as long as the visibility can be ensured.

[0085] Figures 16 to 19 FIG. 4 shows a first modification example of the present embodiment. In this modification example, the smartphone setting unit 31 has a groove portion 45 extending in the width direction of the main body housing 3, instead of the protruding portion 35 (for example, refer to Figure 1 ), and the groove wall on the side opposite to the cuff accommodation unit 33 of the groove portion 45 constitutes the support wall surface 45a. In addition, in the first modification example, electrical components such as a pump are accommodated below the cuff accommodation unit 33 (indicated by reference numeral 19 in Figure 19 ), and there is no electrical component accommodation unit 32 (for example, refer to Figure 1 ). In this way, by accommodating the electrical components below the cuff accommodation unit 33, the size of the main body housing 3 in the depth direction can be reduced.

[0086] Figures 20 to 21 FIG. 5 shows a second modification example of the present embodiment. In this modification example, the smartphone setting unit 31 has a groove portion 45 provided near the front side of the panel unit 34 and extending in the width direction of the main body housing 3, instead of the protruding portion 35 (for example, refer to Figure 1 ), and the groove wall on the side opposite to the cuff accommodation unit 33 of the groove portion 45 constitutes the support wall surface 45a. In addition, in the first modification example, electrical components such as a pump are accommodated in the panel unit 34, and there is no electrical component accommodation unit 32 (for example, refer to Figure 1 ). In this way, even when electrical components are accommodated in the panel unit 34, the height of the main body housing 3 can be reduced.

[0087] The above embodiments are illustrative, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. The above-mentioned plural embodiments can be established separately, but can also be combined with each other. In addition, the respective features in different embodiments can be established separately, but can also be combined with each other.
