  • the present inventor studied a biomedical electrode in which the tip of the protruding portion (columnar portion) is composed of a metal portion made of metal. As a result, when the tip comes into contact with the object to be measured, the subject may feel pain or discomfort, and since the metal part hardly deforms at the time of contact, the contact area of the tip does not increase and contact resistance is reduced. It has been found that there is a fear that it cannot be done.
  • the tip of the columnar part was covered with a conductive resin layer that is more flexible than the metal part.
  • the tip covered with the conductive resin layer can relieve the pain and discomfort to the subject, and because the followability to the measurement object is improved, the contact area of the tip is increased and the contact resistance is increased. It turned out that it can be reduced.

  • the present inventor has obtained the following findings.
  • a configuration has been studied in which the conduction of the columnar portion of the biomedical electrode is realized only by the conductive resin layer.
  • the conductive resin layer may be disconnected due to the deformation of the columnar portion, or the internal resistance of the conductive resin layer may be changed due to the expansion and contraction deformation of the columnar portion, It is estimated that noise may occur.
  • the conductive wire is disposed inside the columnar portion from the tip end side toward the base end side and can be electrically connected to the conductive resin layer on the tip end side.
  • the columnar portions of the biomedical electrode When the plurality of columnar portions of the biomedical electrode come into contact with the measurement target, the columnar portions elastically deform so as to spread outward. That is, the outside of the columnar portion is deformed in the shrinking direction, and the inside is deformed in the pulling direction. At this time, the internal deformation and deformation strain are relatively small as compared with the deformation on the surface of the columnar portion. Therefore, as a result of the study, the conductive wire arranged inside the columnar portion is less likely to be broken as compared with the conductive resin layer formed on the surface of the columnar portion, and the fluctuation of the internal resistance due to the deformation is also reduced. I found out.
  • the biomedical electrode of the present embodiment that employs both the conductive resin layer and the conductive wire, compared to the configuration that employs the conductive resin layer alone, because it is possible to suppress the disconnection and noise generation due to the deformation of the columnar portion, It has been found that the measurement stability can be improved.
  • the tip of the columnar portion of the biomedical electrode is configured to be hard, and therefore an iron ball is used as the tip. It is expected that the subject will feel pain and discomfort, as in the case of the provision.
  • the conductive resin layer formed at the tip of the columnar portion of the biomedical electrode is superior in flexibility as compared with the metal portion made of metal, and is configured to be highly conformable to the measurement target.
