Description

Yin-Yang and Five-Haeng Constitution Analysis Device and Method of Providing Health Information for Each Constitution Using the Same {DEVICE FOR ANALYZING CONSTITUTION ACCORDING TO THE YIN-YANG AND FIVE ELEMENTS AND METHOD OF PROVIDING HEALTH INFORMATION BY CONSTITUTION}

The present invention relates to an apparatus for analyzing the constitution of the Yin-Yang and the Five Elements, and a method for providing health information for each constitution using the same, and more particularly, a constitution analysis apparatus for providing health information of the five elements of a test subject based on quantified information obtained from the tongue of a test subject, and the same. It relates to a method of providing health information for each constitution used.

Since the similar period, research on the physical body or constitution of a person regardless of the East and the West has been continuously carried out by numerous researchers, while a wide variety of medical knowledge has been accumulated in an enormous amount.

Among them, the study of constitutional medicine leading to the Western Hippocrates and Galenose establishes the theoretical basis for understanding health or disease according to the balance and imbalance of body fluids by matching 4 elements to 4 body fluids (blood, mucus, yellow sweet juice, and black bile). Presented.

In particular, Galenus divided human temperament into four types: hemoglobin (blood, air), bile (yellow bile, fire), mucous (mucous, water), and melancholic (black bile, soil). The trend continues to the 4th psychological temperament theory of Jung, a psychoanalyst of the century.

On the other hand, China in the East also explained the constitution of man in a way that establishes the relationship of all things according to the five elements and the five colors, with a corresponding concept similar to that of the West. It is composed of wood, fire, soil, and gold, and the five colors are divided into blue, yellow, red, white, and black. It's a concept.

These five colors are considered to be related to the five elements and five chapters, so they are most useful in diagnosing a patient's disease through the vascular stain, which is a ruin in oriental medicine. It is widely used.

According to the tube type of oriental medicine, the observation is mainly focused on the color of the face and snow.If the color is pale blue or there is no special change, it belongs to Eumjeung and Hanjeung; if it is yellow, then it belongs to Gihyeolhayuheo as Heojeung, and Red is Yangjeung and Yeoljeung. If it is acute belonging to and white, it belongs to heojeung and hanjeung, and if black appears, it is judged that there is swelling or necrosis.

More specifically, snow color or snow image is treated as an objective indicator reflecting the physiology and pathology of the human body, including various physiological functions related to other human organs, and has become a major object of the observational examination of oriental medicine. .

In other words, in oriental medicine, the tongue (tongue) is considered to be an important dialectic index in various dialectic because it is considered to be a very clear marker or window reflecting various changes in the body due to its thin and transparent mucosal epithelium and abundant blood vessels and nerves. have.

When inspecting the tongue (tongue), the color, shape, movement, and quality of the tongue and tongue are mainly judged based on the visual information of the diagnoser.

At this time, seoljil (舌質) refers to the basic appearance state of the tongue, its color tactile, young go, dagger, braille, and seulhyuk (舌下二脈) Focusing on the back, it is possible to diagnose or grasp the condition of each body organ.

And seoltae (舌苔) refers to the material covered like moss on the tongue, through its color, degree of wetting, thickness, shape and range, etc. do.

Seoljin (舌診), which diagnoses disease or constitution by observing changes in snow quality and snow condition, can diagnose the health status of the test subject relatively easily, so it is widely used not only in Korea, but also in China, Japan, and the United States around the world. However, in most cases, it is only a temporary questionnaire, and it has a disadvantage that it is not objective in terms of reproducibility because differences inevitably occur depending on the subjectivity of the diagnoser because it consists entirely of a visual examination of the diagnoser.

Therefore, there is a need for a study on a system that can meet the demands for a variety of health information based on well-being and constitution, which can lead to clear and highly reliable standardized diarrhea.

It is an object of the present invention to discriminate yin-yang and five-haeng constitution reproducibly based on quantified and objective information using digital imaging technology, rather than being made by subjective visual inspection of the diagnoser to observe changes in snow quality and tongue, It is to provide a constitution analysis device that can provide health information suitable for the constitution and a method of providing health information for each constitution using the same.

The object is a weight classification unit to determine the degree of obesity based on the BMI index according to the weight and height information input by the test subject; A body temperature classification unit for determining a constitutional temperature based on a color value for a predetermined point of the exposed tongue of the test subject; A data unit storing health information for each constitution classified on the basis of the yin-yang and five elements; And an output unit for outputting matched health information from the data unit based on the degree of obesity and constitutional temperature of the test subject.

The weight classification unit, based on the BMI index obtained by dividing the body weight (kg) of the test subject by the square of height (height, m), if it is less than 18.5, it is determined as underweight, if it is 18.5 or more and less than 22.9, it is determined as normal weight, and if it is 22.9 or more It can be determined as being overweight.

The body temperature classification unit determines that the first color value of the tongue background for six points spaced apart along both sides of the tongue is based on the RGB color table, and if it is less than E1749D, it is determined as one constitution, and if it is more than E1749D and less than F1749D. It can be determined by on (溫) constitution, and in case of F1749D or higher, it can be determined by heat constitution.

The body temperature classification unit determines that the second color value of the tongue moss for 6 points spaced apart from the center of both sides of the tongue furrow is based on the RGB color table, and if the second color value is less than FDF5EF, the constitution is Han, and FDF5EF If it is more than FDF5DF, it can be determined by on (溫) constitution, and if it is above FDF5DF, it can be determined by heat constitution.

The data part is the corresponding health information by classifying one constitution as neck, warm constitution as cotton, and heat constitution as fire for underweight, respectively. And, respectively, for normal weight, one constitution is classified as water, warm constitution is soil, and heat constitution is classified as fire soil. It stores health information and categorizes each one's overweight as water, warmth as geumsu, and heats as gold. Information can be saved.

The output unit includes the determined constitution of the test subject and the health information of the data unit matching the constitution of the recommended exercise, recommended carbohydrate, recommended fat, recommended protein, recommended side dish (inorganic), recommended fruit (vitamin), and recommended sleeping time. It can be displayed in a form including at least one item.

Another object is the step of inputting weight and height information by a subject through a predetermined input device; Photographing the exposed tongue of the test subject through an imaging device; Determining the degree of obesity based on the BMI index according to the input weight and height information of the test subject; Determining a constitution temperature by extracting a color value for a predetermined point from the photographed image information of the tongue; Matching health information for each constitution stored in the data unit based on the information on the degree of obesity and constitution temperature of the test subject and the yin-yang and five elements; And outputting matched health information from the data unit according to the selection of the examinee.

The step of determining the degree of obesity is based on the BMI index obtained by dividing the body weight (kg) of the test subject by the squared height (m), and if it is less than 18.5, it is determined as underweight, and if it is 18.5 or more and less than 22.9, it is determined as normal weight. , If it is 22.9 or more, it can be determined as overweight.

In the step of determining the constitution temperature, when the first color value of the tongue background for six points spaced apart along both sides of the tongue is based on the RGB color table, if it is less than E1749D, it is determined as a constitution, and E1749D If it is more than F1749D, it can be determined by on (溫) constitution, and if it is more than F1749D, it can be determined by heat constitution.

The step of determining the constitution temperature is, when the second color value of the tongue moss for the six points spaced apart from the center of both sides of the tongue furrow is based on the RGB color table, and is less than FDF5EF, the constitution is one constitution. If it is more than FDF5EF and less than FDF5DF, it can be determined as on constitution, and if it is more than FDF5DF, it can be determined as heat constitution.

According to the present invention, quantified and objective information is provided through the weight classification unit for determining the degree of obesity and the body temperature classification unit for determining the constitutional temperature from the color value of each predetermined point of the exposed tongue of the test subject to reproducibly improve the yin and yang five elements constitution.

On the other hand, it is an invention conceived in order to provide the health information corresponding to the determined constitution to the subject anytime, anywhere without discomfort to the test subject quickly and usefully.

In order to specifically implement the functions or actions as described above, the Yin-Yang and Five Elements constitution analysis apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the weight classification unit 110, body temperature It may be configured to include the classification unit 120, the data unit 130, and the output unit 140.

Here, the yin-yang and five-haengs start from the philosophical concept that the operation of the universe is determined by the expansion and contraction of yin and yang, which are opposite but complementary to each other, and yin and yang have four auras (life, noh, sickness, death). It is a theory that the five elements, which are sub-concepts, appear as they interact with each other according to ).

Here, the five elements theory is that all things in the universe are created and destroyed according to the principle of yin and yang classified into five categories: gold, water, wood, fire, and soil. The concept of the five elements theory has long been extended to human health and diseases through various oriental medicine books, and is summarized as shown in <Table 1> below, and is used in various fields related to real life.

As described above, the five elements theory that includes the normative content of life including human health and disease forms the basis of the nine constitutional classifications described below.

The weight classification unit 110 is a component provided to quantitatively determine the degree of obesity of the test subject, which is the basic information for constitution analysis according to the yin and yang and five elements, and is underweight based on the BMI index according to the weight and height information input by the test subject. , Can be configured to determine normal weight and overweight, respectively.

In order to perform the above function, the weight classification unit 110 according to an embodiment of the present invention may be specifically configured as an input device 112 and a control unit C, as shown in FIG. 2.

In this case, the input device 112 may be any input means such as a touch screen or a touch pad keyboard, which is commercially used and already widely used, and may be a key button in which numbers or letters shown in FIG. 1 are arranged.

The control unit C as described above is electrically connected with the above-described input device 112 to receive the weight (kg) and height (M) information input through the input device 112 to determine the degree of obesity of the test subject in the BMI index. On the basis of this, it can be judged as underweight, normal weight, and overweight, respectively.

At this time, the BMI index is one of the most widely used methods for determining obesity because it reflects body fat accumulation well, and is a value obtained by dividing the body weight (kg) of the subject by the square of the height (height, m) (weight (kg)/height (m ² )).

When the BMI index of the examinee calculated as above is less than 18.5, the control unit C according to an embodiment of the present invention determines the weight of the examinee as underweight and generates information corresponding thereto.

In addition, when the subject's BMI index is greater than or equal to 18.5 and less than 22.9, the control unit C determines the subject's weight as normal and generates information corresponding thereto.

In addition, when the subject's BMI index is 22.9 or higher, the control unit C determines that he/she is overweight and generates information corresponding thereto.

In this way, the information on the degree of obesity of the test subject generated by the control unit (C) is, as will be described later, by the control unit (C), along with the constitutional temperature information of the test subject, which is generated by the body temperature classification unit 120, and It will be used as the basic data of constitution information.

The body temperature classification unit 120 is a component provided to quantitatively determine the body temperature of the test subject, which is the basic information for constitution analysis according to the yin and yang and five elements, such as the above-described information on the degree of obesity of the test subject. It may be configured to determine the constitution temperature as one, on, and heat, respectively, based on the color value for the point.

In order to perform the above function, the body temperature classification unit 120 according to the embodiment of the present invention may be composed of an imaging device 122, a flash unit 124, and a control unit C, as shown in FIG. 2. have.

At this time, the imaging device 122 is a component that converts the exposed tongue into digital image information, and any commercially available device that images colors and shapes such as a camera, regardless of its name, may be used.

The flash unit 124 is a component that emits light, and any commercially available device that allows the original shape and color of the exposed tongue to be revealed irrespective of the amount of ambient light may be used.

Meanwhile, the imaging device 122 and the flash unit 124 may be detachably provided as necessary in the constitution analysis apparatus 100 according to the present invention through the detachable unit 125 in a state arranged side by side with each other.

To this end, the detachable part 125 includes a mouse cup 125a, a gripping part 125a1, a cup receiving part 125b, an elastic wire 125c, etc., as shown in FIG. 1, and the constitution analysis according to the present invention It may be provided on one side of the device 100.

The mouth cup 125a is formed in a funnel shape so as to surround and surround the circumference of the subject's mouth, and is a component in which the imaging device 122 and the flash unit 124 are installed side by side with each other.

In addition, the gripping part 125a1 is a component protruding from the mouse cup 125a in a plate shape so that the examinee can easily grasp the above-described mouse cup 125a by hand, and it is possible to easily obtain image information on the prepared tongue. A photographing button 122a for operating the photographing device may be provided on one side so as to be possible.

And the cup receiving portion (125b) is formed on one side of the body of the constitution analysis apparatus 100 is a component that allows the tip of the funnel-shaped mouth cup (125a) to be inserted and selectively detached.

In addition, the elastic wire 125c applies control power to the imaging device 122 and the flash unit 124 installed inside the mouse cup 125a, and transmits/receives control signals and image data in relation to the control unit (C). It is the component that makes this happen.

The elastic wire 125c may be formed of a coil-type wire having an elastic restoring force so that the mouth cup 125a can smoothly return to the cup receiving portion 125b after photographing the tongue.

As described above, the control unit C is a component that applies power to the imaging device 122 and the flash unit 124 to control their operation, while receiving and processing data from these devices.

This control unit (C) is electrically connected with the above-described imaging device 122 and the flash unit to receive the image information generated through the imaging device 122, it is possible to determine the constitution temperature of the test subject as one, on, and heat, respectively. have.

At this time, the test subject's constitutional temperature can be categorized and distinguished according to the colors indicated by the tongue base (snow quality, 舌質) and tongue moss (seoltae, 舌苔) as shown in FIG. 3, which is the subjective perspective of the conventional diagnoser. Although it was determined depending on the etc., in the present invention, it can be quantitatively determined by the processing of the control unit C as follows by referring to the color of the tongue typed as shown in FIG. 3.

First, the control unit C receives the image information on the tongue of the test subject and recognizes the shape of the tongue among the image information, and the recognized tongue is shown in FIGS. 4A and 5B. The circumferential portion of the tongue and the central portion of the tongue are divided into six areas, respectively.

Next, the control unit (C) is the first color value of the tongue base for six points spaced along both sides of the rim of the tongue in which the occurrence frequency of tongue moss is low and the basic tone of the tongue is clearly exposed to the outside. Each is extracted based on the RGB color table.

And the control unit (C), if the first color value of the extracted tongue background is less than E1749D, which is a blue series, as shown in (b) of FIG. 4, it is determined as a constitution, and is equal to or more than E1749D, which is a pink series, and is less than F1749D. In case of being on (溫) constitution, if it is higher than F1749D, which is a red color series, it is determined by heat constitution. At this time, the color standard for the tongue background was determined by collecting opinions and clinical experiences of various diagnoses of FIG. 3 and diagnosing patients.

Finally, as described above, the control unit C determines representative constitution temperature information by averaging the constitution temperatures of Han, On and Heat determined from the first color values of six points extracted from the partition area around the rim of the tongue as described above. It is done.

When the representative constitution temperature information of the test subject determined as above is collected by the control unit (C) with the information on the degree of obesity of the test subject, the collected information is again collected by the control unit (C) in the following <Table 2>. Constitution classification information for the subject is generated according to the constitution classification. This classification of the Yin-Yang and Five-Haeng Constitution (copyright: C-2016-023148) is a classification of the human constitution into nine types by grafting weight and body temperature.

Furthermore, in order to determine more accurate and quantified constitutional temperature information, the control unit (C) has six additionally located at the center of the tongue at the center of the furrow of the tongue, which is easy to check the condition due to the high frequency of occurrence of additional tongue moss. The second color value of the tongue moss for the point is extracted based on the RGB color table.

And the control unit (C), if the second color value of the extracted tongue moss is less than the dark white series FDF5EF, as shown in Figure 5 (b), it is determined as han (寒) constitution, and the light white series FDF5EF or more If it is less than FDF5DF, it is determined as an on (溫) constitution, and if it is higher than FDF5DF, which is a yellow series, it is determined as a heat constitution. Even at this time, the color standard for the tongue moss was determined by collecting the opinions and clinical experiences of various diagnoses of Fig. 3 and diagnosing patients.

And the control unit (C), from the first color values of the six points extracted from the partition area around the rim of the tongue and the second color values of the tongue moss for the six points spaced apart from the center of both sides of the tongue furrow. By averaging all of the sieving temperatures determined for each one, on, and heat, more objectified representative sieving temperature information is determined.

The representative constitutional temperature information of the test subject determined from the color values of 12 points as above is collected with the above-described information on the degree of obesity of the subject, and based on the classification of the yin and yang and five elements as summarized in <Table 2> above by the control unit (C). Information that distinguishes the constitution of the test subject is calculated.

The data unit 130 is a component that stores health information for each constitution, which is classified based on contents arranged in various books describing characteristics of constitutions according to the yin, yang and five elements, in the form of data by predetermined items, and is classified according to constitution.

You will be able to receive it.

The method for providing health information for each constitution based on the yin-yang and five elements according to the present invention may be performed according to the steps described below through the apparatus 100 for analyzing the constitution of the yin-yang and five elements as described above.

The method of providing health information for each constitution based on the yin-yang and five elements according to the present invention will be described step by step with reference to FIG. 6.

First, the body weight and height input step (S100) is a step in which the test subject inputs weight and height information through a predetermined input device 112. In order to calculate the subject's obesity level information based on the BMI index, the test subject analyzes the constitution. The body weight (kg) and the key (m) of the test subject are respectively input through the key button 112 in which numbers or letters are arranged on one side of the device 100.

Next, the tongue photographing step (S200) is a step of photographing the exposed tongue of the test subject through the imaging device 122, so that the test subject holds the gripping portion 125a1 of the mouse cup 125a and covers the mouth periphery of the test subject. After positioning the mouse cup 125a, the exposed tongue is photographed by pressing the photographing button 122a of the gripping portion 125a1.

At this time, the flash unit 124 irradiates the inside of the mouse cup 125a from which external light is blocked with a certain amount of light, and operates so that the tongue is photographed at a uniform level.

Next, the level of obesity determination step (S300) is a step of determining the degree of obesity based on the BMI index according to the input weight and height information of the test subject, and the input weight ( The degree of obesity of the test subject is determined as underweight, normal weight, and overweight, respectively, based on the BMI index by the control unit C, which received the kg) and height (M) information.

That is, if the subject's BMI index is less than 18.5, the control unit C determines the subject’s weight as underweight and generates corresponding information. If the subject’s body weight is less than 18.5 and less than 22.9, the control unit C determines the subject’s body weight as normal. It is determined as and corresponding information is generated, and if it is 22.9 or more, the control unit C determines that it is overweight and generates information corresponding thereto.

Next, the constitution temperature determination step (S400) is a step of determining the constitution temperature by extracting a color value for a predetermined point from the captured image information of the tongue, and determining the first color value of the tongue base It may consist of a step (S410) and a second color value determination step (S420) of the tongue moss (seoltae, 舌苔).

Here, the first color value determination step (S410) of the tongue background is performed by calculation by the control unit C, and the extracted first color value of the tongue background is (b) of FIG. As shown in the figure, if the person is less than the blue series E1749D, it is determined as a han (寒) constitution, if the pink series is E1749D or more and is less than F1749D, it is determined as the on constitution. Will be determined.

And the second color value determination step (S420) of the tongue moss (seoltae, 舌苔) is also performed by the operation by the control unit (C), the extracted second color value of the tongue moss is shown in Figure 5 (b). As described above, if the body is less than FDF5EF, which is a dark white series, it is determined as a constitution, if it is less than FDF5EF or more and is less than FDF5DF, a light white series, it is determined as an on-constitution. It is done.

The first color values of the six points extracted from the partition area around the rim of the tongue through the first color value determination step (S410) and the second color value determination step (S420) as described above, and at the center of both sides, centering on the furrow of the tongue. As long as it is determined based on the second color values of the tongue moss for the six spaced apart positions, the constitution temperature information of the one, the heat, and the heat is averaged by the control unit C and can be used as more objectified representative constitution temperature information.

Of course, the constitution temperature determination (S400) may be performed only in any one of the first color value determination step (S410) and the second color value determination step (S420) for quick result derivation.

Next, in the step of matching health information for each constitution according to the yin and yang and five elements (S500), the health information for each constitution stored in the data unit 130 is matched with each other based on the degree of obesity and constitution temperature information of the subject and the yin and yang and five elements.

To this end, the control unit (C) first collects the above-described information on the degree of obesity of the subject and the representative constitutional temperature information of the subject determined from the color values of 12 points, and based on the classification of the yin-yang and five elements as summarized in <Table 2> above. Information that distinguishes the constitution of the test subject is calculated.

Further, the control unit C performs a control operation of reading the health information by confirming the calculated and determined health information matching the constitution information of the test subject from the data unit 130.

Finally, the health information output step (S600) is a step of outputting the matched health information from the data unit 130 according to the selection of the examinee, and this step is an output unit ( 140).

That is, the output unit 140 is operated and controlled by the control unit C to print the matched health information according to the constitution information of the examinee on a predetermined paper.

As described above, the output unit 140 may output various items of health information according to the form stored in the data unit 130, and the determined constitution of the subject and the data unit 130 matching the constitution The health information of the child is displayed in a form including at least one of recommended exercise, recommended carbohydrate, recommended fat, recommended protein, recommended side dish (mineral), recommended fruit (vitamin), and recommended sleeping time.

According to the method for providing health information for each constitution based on the yin-yang and five elements according to the present invention as described above, the body weight change and improved tongue condition of the test subject who entered the clinical trial for 3 to 5 weeks after receiving the herbal constitution difference prescription are shown in FIG. As shown, it can be seen that before and after the provision of health information has changed to a significant level.
