Description

Balance and muscle strength measuring device

The new model is related to the measurement of human motion, especially the device for measuring balance and muscle strength.

Balance and muscle strength are two important indicators of the human body during exercise. Once there is a lack of balance, there is a risk of falling. Muscle strength is an important key to continuous exercise and maintaining a sense of balance. It is customary to measure whether a subject’s sense of balance and muscle strength reach the level indicators, and observe whether the subject can complete a specified exercise action, such as standing with both feet for a period of time, one foot (left foot and right foot) Stand for a period of time, put your feet on your toes for a period of time, etc., while the observer observes and evaluates the subject’s degree of completion and the use of a stopwatch to calculate the duration, and finally scores based on time, such as incomplete, poor, general, Good, excellent, etc., finally make a decision based on the score.

However, in the actual measurement process, data such as the duration of the subject in seconds, etc., cannot actually reflect whether the subject completed easily or barely, so the final result may be distorted and not true. Reflect whether the subject's sense of balance is good or bad.

On the other hand, the conventional test requires an observer to perform the test. The test subject has to make an appointment with the observer to perform the test. This is not only time-consuming and costly, but it causes the test subject to have obvious exercise problems before they are willing to perform it. It has the effect of early detection and early treatment.

In this regard, the main purpose of the present invention is to disclose a balance and muscle strength measurement device that the subject can detect by himself. It uses the electronic objective measurement data of the pressure sensor array and the automatic calculation and evaluation of the computer to be objective. It reflects the subjects’ real sense of balance and muscle strength indicators.

In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention is a balance and muscle strength measuring device for a subject to detect balance and muscle strength by himself. It includes a computer and a pressure distribution sensing pad. The computer runs a control software, and the computer has a display screen, and the control software displays an operation screen on the display screen. The pressure distribution sensing pad has a signal processing element and a pressure sensor array, the signal processing element is connected to the computer, and the pressure sensor array is used by the subject to step on to generate pressure distribution sensing information, And the signal processing element is hidden in the pressure distribution sensing pad, and the operation screen is used to instruct the subject to stand on the pressure sensing with his left foot, right foot, two feet, front and back of both feet, and toes on tiptoes. The pressure distribution sensing information is generated on each device array, and no additional observers are required. In addition, the pressure distribution sensing pad transmits the plurality of pressure distribution sensing information to the computer through the signal processing component, so that the computer can evaluate whether the subject performs the left foot and right foot respectively according to the instructions according to the complex pressure distribution sensing information. Feet, feet, back and forth with both feet and standing on tiptoes, and calculate the offset of the center of gravity to automatically produce an assessment of balance and muscle strength.

As mentioned above, the present invention is to obtain the plural pressure distribution sensing generated by the subject standing on the pressure sensor array with the left foot, right foot, both feet, front and back of both feet, and tiptoes of both feet respectively. Information, and let the computer evaluate the calculation of the subject’s center of gravity offset based on the complex pressure distribution sensing information, and then automatically evaluate the sense of balance and muscle strength, because there is no need for an observer to operate the stopwatch, so there will be no human intervention The lack of judgment can not only accurately measure the time, but also through the calculation of the offset of the center of gravity, it can truly reflect the balance and muscle strength of the subject.

The technical content, features and effects of the present invention will be clearly presented in the following detailed description of the preferred embodiment with reference to the drawings.

Please refer to "Figure 1" and "Figure 2". The present invention is a balance and muscle strength measuring device for a subject 10 to operate by themselves to detect and evaluate balance and muscle strength. It includes a computer 20 With a pressure distribution sensing pad 30. The computer 20 can be any one selected from the group consisting of a smart phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, and a personal computer. As shown in FIG. Operation and use to detect the sense of balance and muscle strength of the subject 10.

The computer 20 runs a control software, and the computer 20 has a display screen 21, and the control software displays an operation screen 22 on the display screen 21.

The pressure distribution sensing pad 30 has a signal processing element 31 and a pressure sensor array 32. The signal processing element 31 is connected to the computer 20. The signal processing element 31 can use a signal line (not shown) to be wired Or the signal processing component 31 can be connected to the computer 20 wirelessly through wireless connection technology. The pressure sensor array 32 is used by the subject 10 to step on to generate a pressure distribution sensing information, and the The signal processing element 31 is hidden in the pressure distribution sensing pad 30.

Please also refer to "Figure 2", "Figure 3A", "Figure 3B", "Figure 3C" and "Figure 3D". The operation screen 22 is for instructing the subject 10 to use the left foot, right foot, and Both feet and feet stand on tiptoes on the pressure sensor array 32 to generate the pressure distribution sensing information. In one embodiment, the pressure sensor array 32 has two pedal regions 321, and the two feet The stepping area 321 is for the subject 10 to step on. In one embodiment, the operation screen 22 has a pedal pressure display area 221, and the pedal pressure display area 221 instantly displays the pressure distribution of the subject 10 stepping on the pressure sensor array 32 to provide the The subject 10 refers to it, and the control software automatically determines whether the subject 10 has made the correct action, and only after the subject 10 has made the correct action, will it start to calculate the data to generate the pressure distribution sense测信息。 Test information.

In addition, the operation screen 22 has an action reference image display area 222. The action reference image display area 222 can display reference actions and guide the subject 10 to perform the same actions. For example, as shown in FIG. 3A, Instruct the subject 10 to stand on the pressure sensor array 32 with both feet; and as shown in FIG. 3B, instruct the subject 10 to stand on the pressure sensor array 32 with his left foot; As shown in 3C, the subject 10 is instructed to stand on the pressure sensor array 32 with his right foot; and as shown in Fig. 3D, the subject 10 is instructed to stand on the pressure sensor array with two feet on tiptoes 32 on.
