That is, when the blood pressure monitor is mounted on the scale, the central processing unit, the memory, and the display of the blood pressure monitor are connected to the scale to operate the weight, and when the blood pressure monitor is separated from the scale, only the blood pressure monitor can be operated. Configure.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to configure the weight scale to operate in a state in which the blood pressure monitor is mounted on the scale, so that the user's weight information and blood pressure information can be efficiently input and managed in the blood pressure meter.

Still another object of the present invention is to share some components of a blood pressure monitor and a scale, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost of the device.

Combined blood pressure monitor of the present invention to achieve the object of the present invention

A pressurized motor part for adjusting the cuff part and the pressure in the cuff part, an exhaust valve part for exhausting air in the cuff part, a pressure sensor for measuring the pressure change in the cuff part, a keypad, and the pressure sensor A central processing unit for calculating blood pressure values according to the received signal information and an input signal of the keypad, a memory for storing information calculated from the central processing unit, information calculated from the central processing unit, and information stored in the memory. A blood pressure measuring device having a display outputted by an input signal of a keypad is configured to be detachable from a weight scale having at least a load measuring means such as a load cell, wherein the weight scale is the blood pressure measuring device while the blood pressure measuring device is mounted on the scale. Are configured to share the central processing unit, memory, keypad, and display with each other And a gong.

In addition, the combined weight scale blood pressure monitor of the present invention is further configured to transmit the information calculated from the central processing unit and the information stored in the memory to the outside by the input signal of the keypad.

In addition, the blood pressure measuring device is configured to be inserted into the mounting groove formed in the weight scale by a card type.

Hereinafter, the technical configuration and effect of the present invention will be described in detail.

1 is a diagram illustrating a three-dimensional structure of the combined-weight blood pressure measuring device of the present invention, Figure 2 is a diagram showing a structure that can be used to remove the blood pressure monitor from the scale in the structure of Figure 1 3 is a block diagram of the combined-weight monitor of the present invention, Figure 4 is a flowchart of the combined-weight monitor of the present invention.

Combined blood pressure measuring device 20 according to the present invention is a cuff (16) which is a kind of air bag that can wrap the wrist, pressurized motor unit (3) that can inject or discharge air to the cuff; A central processing unit (MPU) including an exhaust section 4 and a pressure sensor 5 capable of measuring a pressure change of the cuff section, and arithmetic processing of current data measured through the pressure sensor into numerical blood pressure information. 10) and a memory 6 for storing information processed by the central processing unit, and the like, and information data stored in the memory and information data stored in the memory by an input signal of the keypad 9; Has a display 8. In addition, it comprises a blood pressure measuring device (1) consisting of a transmission port (7) to transmit the information data calculated in the central processing unit and the information data stored in the memory to an external remote.

Meanwhile, the scale 2 of the present invention includes a load cell 11 constituting a load measuring means, an amplifier 12 for amplifying a current signal obtained through the load cell, and an A / D signal for converting an output signal of the amplifier. It includes a transducer (13), the memory (6), the transfer port (6), the display (8), the keypad (9), the central processing unit (10) is configured to share and use what is configured in the blood pressure monitor (1) do.

The present invention configures the mounting groove 15 on the upper end of the weight scale 2 as shown in Figure 1 and 2 in order to be able to share some components of the scale and blood pressure meter as described above The end of the blood pressure measuring device (1) is fitted to the mounting groove is configured to be mounted.

1 and 2 are not shown, but when the blood pressure meter 1 is mounted on the mounting groove 15 of the scale, the inside of the mounting groove of the scale and the outside of the blood pressure meter can be shared. The contact terminals for connecting the circuit to the circuit shall be constructed.

Operation of the combined-weight monitor of the present invention configured as described above will be described using the flowchart of FIG.

First, after mounting the blood pressure monitor 1 in the mounting groove 15 of the scale 2 (S10), the central processing unit 10 determines whether the user selected the scale mode using the keypad (9) ( S11).

If the weight scale mode is not selected, the standby state (S12) is maintained, and if the weight scale mode is selected, the central processing unit 10 receives the load information signal obtained from the load cell 11 and calculates and processes the user's weight. (S13), the measured weight data is automatically output through the display 8 (S14).

Subsequently, the CPU determines whether to store the weight information in the memory 6 (S15).

When the measured weight is stored in the memory, the data is stored in the memory 6 (S16), and it is determined whether the data is transmitted to the outside through the transmission port (7) (S17). If the weight information is not transmitted, the standby state (S12) is maintained. Determination of the transfer of the weight information through the memory storage and transmission port causes the central processing unit to detect and execute whether or not the user has operated the keypad 9.

When data transmission of weight information is performed, the transmission port 7 is linked (S18) to transmit weight information to an external network (S19).

Subsequently, when the weight measurement ends, the blood pressure monitor 1 is separated from the mounting groove 15 of the scale (S20), and the operation ends.

Of course, when the blood pressure monitor is separated from the scale, the blood pressure monitor returns to its original function and the function of the weight scale is terminated.

The present invention has been described taking the structure that the blood pressure meter is coupled to the scale as an example, but by installing an electrode plate that can measure the body impedance on the scale of the scale, an additional function, so that the user's body fat and weight can be measured at the same time Can be configured.

The present invention is configured so that the memory (6), the transfer port (7), the display (8), the keypad (9), the central processing unit (10) of the blood pressure monitor can be shared with the scale, and the blood pressure monitor is mounted on the scale. By performing the function of the scale in one state, and configured to perform the function of the blood pressure meter in a state in which the blood pressure meter is separated from the scale, the user's weight information and blood pressure information can be efficiently input and managed through the blood pressure meter. The effect of reducing the manufacturing cost can be obtained.
