Abstract

An instrument measures electrical bodily resistance of the user on the scales as a function of time. Two electrodes (3, 4) are provided, each integrated into or arranged on the standing surface (2). Measurements are taken between them, the individual standing with one foot on each and making electrical contact with both. From the measurements, a pulse frequency is determined and displayed. A corresponding audible tone is produced. Further electronic instrumentation measures bodily scattered light.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Waage mit einer Vorrichtung zur Messung des Pulses der zu wiegenden Person.The The invention relates to a balance with a device for measuring the pulse of the person to be weighed.

Aus DE 196 39 095 A1 ist bekannt, die Pulsfrequenz einer zu wiegenden Peron durch die pulsbedingten Gewichtsschwankungen zu ermitteln. Dies funktioniert nicht sehr zuverlässig.Out DE 196 39 095 A1 It is known to determine the pulse rate of a weighing Peron by the pulse-induced weight fluctuations. This does not work very reliable.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Waage anzugeben, die auf zuverlässige Wiese die Pulsfrequenz der zu wiegenden Person ermittelt.task The invention is to provide a balance on a reliable basis determines the pulse rate of the person to be weighed.

Die Aufgabe wird durch eine Waage gelöst, die dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, dass die Waage – vorzugsweise auf der Wiegefläche – zumindest eine erste Elektrode und eine zweite Elektrode und eine Vorrichtung zur Messung des Körperwiderstandes zwischen der erste Elektrode und der zweiten Elektrode einer auf der Waage befindlichen Person in Abhängigkeit von der Zeit misst.The Task is solved by a balance, which characterized is that the balance - preferably on the weighing platform - at least a first electrode and a second electrode and a device for measuring the body resistance between the first electrode and the second electrode one on the balance dependent person measures of the time.

Die Erfindung hat den Vorteil, dass ein zuverlässige Messung der Pulsfrequenz falls gewünscht während eines Wiegevorganges ermöglicht ist.The Invention has the advantage that a reliable measurement of the pulse rate if desired during one Weighing process allows is.

Erfindungsgemäß wurde erkannt, dass sich durch den zu- und abnehmenden Blutschwall beispielsweise in den Beinen der zu untersuchenden Person der Körperwiderstand periodisch ändert.According to the invention was recognized that, for example, by the increasing and decreasing blood flow In the legs of the person to be examined the body resistance changes periodically.

Die erfindungsgemäße Waage ermittelt aus der gemessenen zeitlichen Abhängigkeit eine Pulsfrequenz und zeigt diese dem Benutzer auf einem Display an. Es kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass der Pulsschlag akustisch – beispielsweise durch Pieptöne – ausgegeben wird.The inventive balance determines a pulse rate from the measured time dependence and displays it to the user on a display. It can also be provided that the pulse emitted acoustically - for example, by beeps becomes.

In einer Ausführungsform der Waage sind die erste Elektrode und/oder die zweite Elektrode in die Auftrittfläche der Waage integriert. In einer anderen Ausführungsform sind die erste Elektrode und/oder die zweite Elektrode auf der Auftrittfläche angeordnet.In an embodiment The scales are the first electrode and / or the second electrode in the performance area the scale integrated. In another embodiment, the first electrode and / or the second electrode is arranged on the tread surface.

In einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführung sind – zur Herstellung eines besonders guten elektrischen Kontaktes – die erste Elektrode und/oder die zweite Elektrode und/oder die Auftrittfläche anschmiegsam ausgebildet. Hierdurch wird die Kontaktfläche zwischen den Füßen der zu untersuchenden Person und den Elektroden vergrößert. Diese Ausführungsform funktioniert auch bei Personen mit sehr trockenen Füßen sehr zuverlässig.In a particularly advantageous embodiment are - for the production of a particular good electrical contact - the first electrode and / or the second electrode and / or the contact surface cuddly educated. As a result, the contact surface between the feet of the enlarged to examine person and the electrodes. This embodiment works well even for people with very dry feet reliable.
