ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIONBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Como referencia al estado actual de la tecnica, cabe senalar que, al menos por parte del solicitante, se desconoce la existencia de ningun otro dispositivo inductor-detector de respuestas en la piel o invencion similar que presente unas caracteristicas tecnicas, estructurales y constitutivas iguales o semejantes a las que presenta el que aqu se preconiza, segun se reivindica. As a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that, at least on the part of the applicant, the existence of any other skin-response-inducing device or similar invention having the same technical, structural and constitutive characteristics is unknown. similar to those presented here, as claimed.
En dicho sentido, hay que mencionar que, a d^a de hoy, el unico aparato que se conoce que realice algunas de las funcionalidades que consigue el dispositivo objeto de la presente invencion es el que se utiliza para efectuar electromiogramas, pero se basa en la corriente electrica que circula por los nervios y los musculos.In this regard, it should be mentioned that, ad to today, the only device known to perform some of the functionalities achieved by the device object of the present invention is that which is used to perform electromyograms, but is based on the electrical current that circulates through the nerves and muscles.
Igualmente, es tambien conocida la existencia de aparatos que miden la respuesta galvanica de la piel, por ejemplo los llamados detectores de mentiras, sin embargo, son asimismo aparatos muy distintos y muchos mas complejos al que aqu se preconiza,Equally, it is also known the existence of apparatuses that measure the galvanic response of the skin, for example the so-called detectors of lies, however, they are also very different and much more complex apparatuses than here advocated,
EXPLICACION DE LA INVENCIONEXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION
Asi, el dispositivo inductor-detector de respuestas en la piel que la invencion propone se configura como una novedad dentro de su campo de aplicacion, ya que, estando los detalles caracterizadores que lo hacen posible y que lo distinguen convenientemente recogidos en las reivindicaciones finales que acompanan a la presente description.Thus, the device inductor-detector of responses in the skin that the invention proposes is configured as a novelty within its field of application, since, being the characterizing details that make it possible and that distinguish it conveniently collected in the final claims that Accompany this description.
De manera concreta, lo que la invencion propone, como se ha apuntado anteriormente, es un dispositivo sensor destinado para situarlo sobre la superficie de la piel de un individuo que sirve para diferentes cosas. En concreto para ver la diferencia de potencial entre dos puntos de la superficie de la piel, para inducir un potencial sobre la piel o conducir una corriente electrica a traves de la misma y, tambien, para ver la respuesta galvanica de la piel.Specifically, what the invention proposes, as pointed out above, is a sensor device designed to be placed on the surface of the skin of an individual serving different purposes. Specifically to see the potential difference between two points on the surface of the skin, to induce a potential on the skin or to conduct an electric current through it and, also, to see the galvanic response of the skin.
Estas funcionalidades permiten, a su vez, que se pueda emplear en diferentes aplicaciones, por ejemplo para la detection de los movimientos que se ha realizado con el cuerpo asi como transmitir information al entorno, a otras personas a traves de la piel, o incluso a traves del cuerpo del individuo.These functionalities allow, in turn, that it can be used in different applications, for example for the detection of the movements that have been made with the body as well as transmit information to the environment, to other people through the skin, or even to through the body of the individual.
De igual forma si un individuo tiene el sensor colocado en cualquier parte de su piel y otro le toca, el dispositivo permite ver que el individuo ha sido tocado por otro y conocer con que fuerza lo ha hecho.Similarly, if an individual has the sensor placed in any part of his skin and another touches him, the device allows to see that the individual has been touched by another and to know with what force he has done it.
Finalmente, otra de las aplicaciones del dispositivo de la invencion es el uso del mismo como glucometro, ya que, a traves de la respuesta galvanica de la piel como consecuencia de la induction de corriente se puede ver el nivel de azucar en sangre. Finally, another of the applications of the device of the invention is the use thereof as a glucometer, since, through the galvanic response of the skin as a consequence of current induction, the level of sugar in blood can be seen.
Para todo ello el dispositivo se configura a partir de una placa base o PBC (del ingles: Printed Circuit Board placa de circuito impreso) a la que se acoplan dos pletinas constitutivas de respectivos conductores de metal disenadas para poder colocarse sobre la piel.For all this the device is configured from a base plate or PBC (from the English: Printed Circuit Board printed circuit board) to which are attached two plates constituting respective metal conductors designed to be placed on the skin.
Estas pletinas estan separadas entre si una determinada distancia, y conectadas en la placa a la entrada de un amplificador de instrumentacion. El amplificador de instrumentacion es un componente que amplifica unas 200 veces el valor de la diferencia de potencial entre los dos terminales que determinan las pletinas y esta senal se filtra con un filtro paso bajo de 10 Hz incorporado al efecto en la placa.These plates are separated from each other by a certain distance, and connected on the plate to the input of an instrumentation amplifier. The instrumentation amplifier is a component that amplifies about 200 times the value of the potential difference between the two terminals that determine the plates and this signal is filtered with a 10 Hz low pass filter incorporated into the effect on the plate.
Lo que se obtiene es una senal que varia cuando se realiza un movimiento tanto con el cuerpo como con la extremidad en la que este alojado el dispositivo, la cual es recogida por la unidad procesadora de la placa. Asimismo tambien detecta el cambio de senal cuando alguien toca a la persona que tiene incorporado el dispositivo, aunque la primera no tenga ningun tipo de sensor en su cuerpo.What is obtained is a signal that varies when a movement is made both with the body and with the extremity in which the device is housed, which is picked up by the processing unit of the plate. It also detects the change of signal when someone touches the person who has incorporated the device, although the first does not have any type of sensor in his body.
Cabe mencionar que las pletinas de metal que determinan los terminales del sensor no tienen por que estar ajustados a la piel ni tampoco requieren de ningun tipo de gel conductor.It should be mentioned that the metal plates that determine the sensor terminals do not have to be adjusted to the skin nor do they require any type of conductive gel.
Con esto y utilizando los mismos terminales se puede generar una corriente electrica que vaya desde el dispositivo en cuestion hasta cualquier parte del cuerpo, o a cualquier dispositivo que este en contacto con la piel.With this and using the same terminals can generate an electric current that goes from the device in question to any part of the body, or any device that is in contact with the skin.
Finalmente, analizando la respuesta galvanica de la piel se puede ver en tiempo real el nivel de azucar que tiene el individuo que lleve puesto el dispositivo.Finally, analyzing the galvanic response of the skin can be seen in real time the level of sugar that has the individual wearing the device.
El descrito dispositivo inductor-detector de respuestas en la piel representa, pues, una innovacion de caracteristicas estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora, razones que unidas a su utilidad practica, la dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita.The described device inductor-detector of responses in the skin represents, then, an innovation of structural and constitutive characteristics unknown until now, reasons that together with its practical utility, provide it with sufficient grounds to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.
