Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of biological impedance appearance, particularly a kind of biological impedance appearance of tool wireless transmission capability.
Background technology
In generation nineteen fifty, Reinhard Voll doctor grinds high acupuncture point (Acupuncture Points), and finds that human body has nearly 2000 acupuncture points at skin surface, and those acupuncture points are called the path profile of meridians (Meridian) with some.According to theory of Chinese medical science, these meridians are the pipeline of energy delivery, and mobile being commonly called " gas " of this energy (Chi).Find that in grinding of west is high the acupuncture point can be found out through measuring the less position of skin D.C. resistance.In other words, the acupuncture point is a kind of special surface anatomy position (Superficial Anatomic Location), and at those locational skin dc resistances, is lower than the resistance value of surrounding skin.And Reinhard Voll doctor finds, can be through measuring the impedance data at acupuncture point, whether do normally to measure the corresponder official career.In addition, some electrical Therapeutic Method are also found, can the electrical signals (therapy signals) of treatment be imported relevant acupuncture point with electrode, repeatedly several times, can make the impedance signal at relevant acupuncture point, recover normal, and then the treatment of reaching corresponding organ.
United States Patent (USP) the 4th, 981, No. 146, United States Patent (USP) the 5th; 397, No. 338, United States Patent (USP) the 5th, 626; No. 617, No. the 6th, 735,480, United States Patent (USP), No. the 2005/0197555th, U.S. Patent Publication etc.; Be about utilizing the acupuncture point to treat, or carry out the patent of monitoring of human health situation.Traditionally, the impedance signal at acupuncture point detects, and detects with biological impedance appearance and metal probe thereof.During measurement, probe does not thrust human body usually, and can only measure an acupuncture point at every turn.Traditional biological impedance appearance often because of probe and skin poor electrical contact, and is affected measurement result.And when measuring an acupuncture point, need carry out the measurement of diverse location several times after, just can obtain stable and skin electrical resistance data reliably.
To shown in Figure 3, Reinhard Voll doctor finds, people's hands and foot, the electrical conducting spots (acupuncture point) that distributes many like Fig. 1.And because traditional biological impedance appearance, can only measure an acupuncture point at every turn, and therefore to measure the relevant acupuncture point of hands and foot, then need expend the many time, bother very much.
Moreover, if the acupuncture point is positioned under the thicker skin of horny layer, measures bigger impedance signal easily, and cause bigger measurement error.
Seeing that therefore the defective of the biological impedance appearance of aforementioned conventional is necessary to develop the biological impedance appearance that makes new advances.
