Abstract

Disclosed is a smart ankle band. The smart ankle band according to the present invention comprises: a band body part (10), formed in the form of a band, for wearing around an ankle; an elastic part (12), provided between the ends of the band body part (10), for adjusting the length of the band body part (10) by being extended or contracted by an internal control; a movement sensing unit (300) for sensing movement; a control unit (310) for checking whether movement has been sustained for a set duration; and a band tension control unit (320) for driving a motor (322) so as to output a signal for adjusting the band tension to a tightened state if the check indicates movement has been sustained for a set duration, or to a loosened state if the check indicates no movement has been sustained for a set duration. Such a smart band for wearing around an ankle according to the present invention senses movement to loosen the band when no movement is sensed for a set duration and tighten the band when movement active enough to be considered exercise is started, thus allowing the body to feel less resistance and fatigue, and if the ankle is determined to be swollen by periodically tightening the band for a set duration and measuring the change in the band length, then the swelling in the leg can be actively reduced by supplying electricity to the provided electrode.

Description

발목 착용식 스마트 밴드Ankle wearable smart band
본 발명은 건강 도움 및 운동 분석이 가능한 스마트 밴드에 관한 것으로 더 상세하게는 발목에 착용하되 운동 여부를 감지하여 신축되고 주기적으로 신축되면서 길이를 비교 체크하여 발목 부기가 감지되면 전기 자극을 주어 마사지함으로써 건강 도움 및 운동 분석이 가능할 뿐만 아니라 적극적인 치유도 가능한 스마트 밴드에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a smart band that can support health and exercise analysis, and more specifically, worn on the ankle, but is stretched by detecting whether the movement is stretched and periodically stretched by comparing the length of the ankle swelling by detecting the electrical stimulation by massage It's all about smart bands that not only help with health and exercise, but also actively heal.
운동거리와 같은 운동 데이터 뿐만 아니라 체온, 맥박, 혈압, 혈당, 심전도 등을 포함하여 사용자 자신의 건강 상태를 체크할 수 있는 생체 측정 장치가 대중화되고 있다. 이러한 생체 측정 장치는 측정된 데이터에 의거하여 사용자의 운동 상태 및 건강 상태를 판단해 준다.Biometric devices capable of checking the user's own health status, including body temperature, pulse rate, blood pressure, blood sugar, electrocardiogram, etc., as well as exercise data such as exercise distance, have become popular. The biometric device determines the exercise state and the health state of the user based on the measured data.
그런데 사용자가 생체 측정 장치를 통해 수시로 건강 상태를 체크하고 응급 상황을 대비하기 위해서는 휴대가 간편해야 하므로 측정 장치의 소형화가 필수적인 과제가 되었다.However, in order for the user to check the state of health at any time through the biometric device and to prepare for an emergency, it must be easy to carry out, so miniaturization of the measurement device has become an essential task.
최근에는 정보 통신과 전자 장치의 발전으로 생체 측정 장치가 점차 소형화되어, 생체 측정 장치는 휴대형(potable)에서 몸에 착용할 수 있는 웨어러블(wearable) 형태로 발전하고 있다. 즉, 사용자는 손목시계 형, 반지 형, 목걸이 형태로 된 체온계, 맥박계, 혈압계, 혈당계, 심전도 측정계 등을 신체의 일부에 착용하여 수시로 자신의 건강 상태를 체크할 수 있다.Recently, biometric devices have been gradually miniaturized due to the development of information communication and electronic devices, and biometric devices have been developed in a wearable form that can be worn on the body. That is, the user can check his / her health state from time to time by wearing a watch-type, ring-type, necklace-type thermometer, pulse meter, blood pressure monitor, blood glucose meter, electrocardiogram, etc. on a part of the body.

도 3 및 도 4를 참조하면, 본 발명에 따른 발목 착용식 스마트 밴드의 움직임 감지부(300)는 움직임을 감지(단계 S400)하며 제어부(310)는 움직임이 일정시간 지속되었는지를 체크(단계 S402)하여 움직임이 일정시간 지속된 것으로 체크되면 밴드 장력 조정부(320)는 밴드 장력을 조임 상태로 조정하는 신호를 출력하도록 모터(322)를 구동한다. 움직임 감지부(300)는 중력센서 또는 지자기 센서와 같은 공지의 소자를 사용할 수 있으며 이는 만보계 애플리케이션과 같은 공지의 애플리케이션에서 발걸음수를 계산하는데 사용될 수 있다.3 and 4, the motion detection unit 300 of the ankle wearable smart band according to the present invention detects the movement (step S400) and the control unit 310 checks whether the movement has continued for a predetermined time (step S402) If it is checked that the movement is continued for a predetermined time, the band tension adjusting unit 320 drives the motor 322 to output a signal for adjusting the band tension to a tightening state. The motion detector 300 may use a known device such as a gravity sensor or a geomagnetic sensor, which may be used to calculate the number of steps in a known application such as a pedometer application.
또한 움직임 감지부(300)는 움직임을 감지(단계 S400)하며 제어부(310)는 움직임없이 일정시간 지속되었는지를 체크(단계 S410)하여 움직임없이 일정시간 지속된 것으로 체크되면 밴드 장력 조정부(320)는 밴드 장력을 느슨한 상태로 조정하는 신호를 출력하도록 모터(322)를 구동한다.In addition, the movement detection unit 300 detects movement (step S400) and the controller 310 checks whether the movement lasts for a certain time without movement (step S410) and if it is checked that the movement lasts for a predetermined time without movement, the band tension adjusting unit 320 The motor 322 is driven to output a signal for adjusting the band tension to a loose state.
상기와 같은 본 발명에 따른 발목 착용식 스마트 밴드는 움직임을 감지하여 일정 시간 동안 움직임이 없을 때에는 밴드를 풀어주고 운동이라고 생각되는 정도로 본격적인 움직임이 시작되면 밴드를 조여줌으로써 신체에서 거부감 및 피로감을 덜 느끼게 한다.The ankle wearable smart band according to the present invention detects the movement and releases the band when there is no movement for a certain time, and when the movement starts to the fullest extent that is considered to be an exercise, the band is tightened so that the body feels less rejection and fatigue. do.
도 5 및 도 6에는 다리 부음을 체크하는 과정과 다리 부음으로 체크되면 전기 자극을 주어 다리 부음을 해소하기 위한 제어 수순을 흐름도로서 나타내었다.5 and 6 show the flow of the process of checking the foot swelling and the control procedure for solving the foot swelling by giving electrical stimulation when checked with the foot swelling.
도 5를 참조하면, 제어부(310)는 밴드 장력 조정부(320)를 제어하여 밴드를 최대로 느슨하게 조절(단계 S500)하고, 일정 장력까지 밴드 조임 상태로 조정(단계 S502)하고, 밴드 길이를 제1 길이로 저장(단계 S504)한다. 이후 일정 시간이 경과한 후(단계 S506), 도 6에 도시한 바와 같이 밴드를 최대로 느슨하게 조절(단계 S600)하고, 일정 장력까지 밴드 조임 상태로 조정(단계 S602)하여 밴드 길이를 측정한 제2 길이와 상기 단계(S504)에서 얻은 제1 길이의 차가 일정 임계값을 초과하는지를 체크하여 제2 길이와 제1 길이의 차이가 일정 임계값을 초과하면 근육 자극을 위한 전극을 가동(단계 S606)한다.Referring to FIG. 5, the controller 310 controls the band tension adjusting unit 320 to loosely adjust the band to the maximum (step S500), adjust the band to a predetermined tension (step S502), and adjust the band length. Store at 1 length (step S504). Then, after a predetermined time has elapsed (step S506), as shown in FIG. 6, the band is loosely adjusted to the maximum (step S600), and the band length is adjusted to a predetermined tension (step S602) to measure the band length. It is checked whether the difference between the second length and the first length obtained in the step S504 exceeds a predetermined threshold, and when the difference between the second length and the first length exceeds the predetermined threshold, the electrode for muscle stimulation is activated (step S606). do.
따라서, 일정 시간 주기로 밴드를 풀었다 조이면서 밴드 길이의 변화를 측정하여 발목이 부은 것으로 판단되면 구비되는 전극에 전기를 공급하여 다리 부음을 적극적으로 해소할 수 있다.Therefore, if it is determined that the ankle is swollen by measuring the change in the band length while unwinding and tightening the band at a predetermined time period, it is possible to actively eliminate the swelling of the leg by supplying electricity to the provided electrode.
한편, 발목의 움직임을 감지하고 본 발명에 따른 발목 착용식 스마트 밴드에 공지의 기술을 접목시켜 감지된 운동 상태 정보를 스마트폰 애플리케이션으로 다운로드하여 예컨대 수영과 같은 운동을 할 때 발의 움직임 및 패턴을 감지하여 자세를 교정하거나 수영을 더 잘할 수 있도록 도와주는 기능을 수행하는 것도 가능할 것이다. 스마트폰 애플리케이션과 연동되기 위해서는 공지의 블루투스 인터페이스를 사용하는 것이 바람직하다.On the other hand, by detecting the movement of the ankle and incorporating well-known technology into the ankle wearable smart band according to the present invention to download the detected exercise state information to the smart phone application to detect the movement and pattern of the foot when exercising, for example, swimming It may be possible to perform a function to help you correct your posture or swim better. In order to interwork with a smartphone application, it is preferable to use a known Bluetooth interface.
