Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a calorie requirement speed calculator, and more specifically, it quickly and easily calculates the daily calorie requirement by taking into account various factors such as gender, age, sleeping time, exertion intensity, and degree of obesity. This article relates to a speed calculator that can calculate the required calories.

By the way, the factors that determine the required calories per day are the minimum number of calories required to sustain life at rest, which is called the basal metabolic rate, and the calories consumed during exercise and the calories required for development and growth.

Note that the daily basal metabolic rate (A) is determined by the body surface area (S) and the basal metabolic standard value (E), as shown by equation (1).

A=ExSx24 (1) However, the basal metabolic standard value (E) is the calorie required per hour per 1m of body surface, and varies depending on age and gender.

Body surface (S) is determined by height (H) and weight (W) as shown in equation (2).

5-Wo・444xH0・668X88.83 (
2) In addition, the basal metabolic rate A differs between sleeping and waking, and awake requires more calories than sleeping, and while sleeping, the basal metabolic rate A is 0.9 times the basal metabolic rate mentioned above, while awake. It is said that each requires 1.2 times as many calories.

As mentioned above, each person's daily calorie requirement depends on their gender,
It is determined by age, physique, sleeping hours, amount of exercise, growth stage, etc., and in calculating the appropriate calorie intake, it is necessary to take into account the above factors as well as the degree of obesity.

However, until now, there have been only separate relationships between gender, age, or exertion intensity, and the required calories, and although the required calories for exertion intensity differs depending on age. Age was not taken into consideration in this calculation, and therefore complicated calculations were required to determine the required calories that comprehensively considered each factor.

The present invention was developed in view of the current situation as described above, and its purpose is to provide a small-diameter rotary disc 2 that can read a comprehensive appropriate calorie value that takes into account various factors with simple operation. However, on the base 1, which is rotatably pivoted at the center by a support member 3, along the circumference of the rotary disk 2, there is a Calonau scale 4 and a calorie scale indicating the increase or decrease in the required calories per day due to changes in age. an age scale 5 whose scale width is set to correspond to the increase/decrease direction and scale of 4;
Age is plotted on the vertical axis passing through the center of the rotary disk 2, calories are plotted on the circular arc-shaped horizontal axis concentric with the rotary disk 2, and the standard line shows the standard exertion intensity as the exertion intensity changes, with the exertion intensity as a parameter. The scale width of the horizontal axis is set so that the increase/decrease in required calories with respect to 13 corresponds to the increase/decrease direction and scale of the calorie scale 4, and an exertion intensity scale 8 consisting of a graph 12 showing the required calories by age with respect to exertion intensity is provided. In addition, a height scale 6 and a sleep time scale whose scale widths are set so that increases and decreases in required calories due to changes in various factors such as height, sleep time, and degree of obesity correspond to the increase/decrease direction and scale of the calorie scale 4. 7, and at least one of adjustment scales 9 that take obesity degree into consideration are sequentially displayed, and a calorie mark 15 indicating the calorie scale 4 is provided on the outer periphery of the rotary disk 2.
, an age mark 16 indicating the correspondence between the calorie scale 4 and the age scale 5, and a scale 17 having the same spacing as the calorie scale 4. To provide a required calorie speed calculation board characterized by displaying an appropriate required calorie taking into consideration various factors such as obesity degree.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a surface view of a calorie speed calculation board for men according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a surface view of a calorie speed calculation board for women.

In the drawing, 1 is a circular base, and 2 is a circular rotary disk having a smaller diameter than the base 1, which is rotatably mounted on the base 1 by a support member 3 so as to form a concentric circle therewith.

The base 1 has a calorie scale 4 formed at equal intervals increasing counterclockwise along the circumference of the rotary disk 2, and a calorie scale 4 indicating age and age.
Age scale 5 and height scale are set to correspond to the increase/decrease direction and scale of calorie scale 4, respectively, to indicate the increase/decrease in required calories due to changes in various factors such as height, sleep time, exertion intensity, adjustment by degree of obesity, etc. 6. A sleep time scale 7, an exercise intensity scale B, and an adjustment scale 9 taking into account the degree of obesity are sequentially provided.

That is, regarding the age scale 5, the interval between the scales corresponds to the difference in required calories for the ages indicated by these scales, and the required calories increase in the counterclockwise direction.

By the way, the calorie requirement for each age is determined by taking into account the developmental stage in addition to the basal metabolic rate, and in this invention, the calorie requirement for each age is the main factor, and the above-mentioned factors are also taken into account. I'm looking for the final calorie requirement.

In addition, the required calories by age in this example are
It was calculated based on the estimated national nutritional requirements for year 0.

The height scale 6 represents the increase/decrease in the basal metabolic rate due to the change in height determined by the equations (1) and (2) in correspondence with the Caronneau scale 4.

Note that the weight required for calculation is the standard weight obtained by equation (3), and the age is calculated assuming that both men and women are 20 years old.

By adopting a standard body weight, the basal metabolic rate at the ideal body weight can be applied even to thin or obese people, making it possible to prevent and treat overweight and obesity.

Standard weight = (H-100)Xo, 9 (3)H:
Height 10 is the reference line on height scale 6, in this case 2
The standard height for a 0-year-old is adopted, and the male is 170 cm.
The woman is 160 cm tall.

However, the standard height for children and adults in the growth agent is quite different, so it is necessary to set it according to the purpose of each object.

Sleep time scale 7 is calculated by equally dividing the difference in basal metabolic rate between 0 hours of sleep and 24 hours of sleep. In this case, the age is 20 years old and the height is 160 cm.

Note that the standard line 11 uses a standard sleep time of 7 hours for both men and women.

However, in this case as well, as in the case of height, the standard sleep time is different for infants and adults, so the standard line 1 suitable for the subject
1 must be provided.

The exertion intensity scale 8 divides the exertion intensity into four levels: "light,""normal,""slightlyheavy," and "heavy." Furthermore, since the same exertion intensity varies depending on age, Tables 1 and 2 are used. Graph 12 is formed by determining the appropriate increase or decrease in calories for each age group and connecting the exercise intensity for each age group as shown in FIG.

In this case, the graph 12 for the "normal" exertion intensity is used as the reference line 13.

The adjustment scale 9 can be adjusted so that obese people consume fewer calories and underweight people consume more calories.The adjustment scale 9 can be adjusted counterclockwise from -1000 cal with the 0 indicator line 14 as the center, just like the calorie scale 4. It is graduated up to +1000cal.

On the other hand, the turntable 2 is provided with an arrow-shaped calorie mark 15 indicating the calorie scale 4 and an arrow-shaped age mark 16 indicating the correspondence between the calorie scale 4 and the age scale 5. A scale 17 with the same spacing as 4 is provided along the outer periphery.

Note that the types and positions of the factors to be described may be changed as appropriate.

The present embodiment is configured as described above, and when calculating the required calories, first the age mark 16 on the rotary disk 2 is used.
Match the age to be calculated, then set the reference line 10 on the height scale 6.
The scale 17 on the turntable 2 that matches the correct height scale 6
Operate the turntable 2 to match the sleep time scale 7,
The same operation is performed sequentially for the exertion intensity scale 8 and the adjustment scale 9.

For example, if you are 20 years old, 180 cm tall, and sleep 8 hours,
When calculating for a man whose exertion intensity is slightly heavy, set the age mark 16 to the 20-year-old position on the age scale 5, and then set the age mark 16 on the rotary plate 2 that corresponds to the reference line 10 on the height scale 6. The rotation M2 is rotated counterclockwise so that the scale 17 coincides with the height scale 6 at 180 cm.

Similarly, the rotary disc 2 is rotated clockwise so that the scale 17 of the rotary disc 2, which corresponds to the reference line 11 of the sleep time scale 7, is aligned with the 8 hour mark on the sleep time scale 7, and then the exercise intensity scale is Scale 1 of the rotary disk 2 that coincides with the reference line 13 of 8
7 corresponds to the position of the 20-year-old in graph 12 for exertion intensity "slightly heavy."

If it is desired to further reduce the calorie intake by 300 cal, the scale 17 of the turntable 2, which corresponds to the O marking line 14 of the adjustment scale 9, is set to -300 on the adjustment scale 9.

When the above operations are completed, the calorie scale indicated by the calorie mark 15 is the required calorie.

In addition, the required calorie calculation board according to the present invention may be configured such that both men's and women's versions are formed on the front and back sides of a single board 1, as shown in FIG.

In addition, in order to facilitate the operation when adjusting the scale 17 of the rotary disk 2 that corresponds to each standard line to the conditions on the base plate 1, the support member 3 is rotatably mounted on the rotary disk 2, and is usually may be provided with an index (not shown) that rotates together with the rotary disk 2.

By extending it to the periphery of the base 1, this index can be used to calculate the required calories using the graph 12 that is the exertion intensity scale 8, and to find the point where the exercise intensity corresponds to the age in correspondence with the calories. It is particularly suitable for use.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to accurately and quickly perform a comprehensive calorie calculation that takes into account all the factors that determine the required calories per day, and also to calculate the required calories for the exercise intensity that takes into account age. Since the calculation uses a graph, there is no need to perform separate calculations, and the calculation is easy to operate.Furthermore, it is possible to know the appropriate calorie requirement considering the degree of obesity, so it is possible to prevent overweight and obesity.
It has remarkable effects such as being useful for treatment.

Although the present invention has been variously explained above with reference to preferred embodiments, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and it goes without saying that many modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. It is.
