摘要:
In a body fat measuring apparatus, a constant electric-current is flowed between hand electric-current electrodes and leg electric-current electrodes. From two detected voltages generated between an annular-shaped voltage electrode placed on an abdominal portion and two voltage electrodes placed at the both sides of a lumbar portion, two abdominal impedances are determined. Two electric-current electrodes and two voltage electrodes are placed such that they are spaced apart by a small interval from one another at an umbilicus portion. A constant electric current is flowed between the two electric-current electrodes and the impedance in the vicinity of the subcutaneous of the abdominal portion is determined from the detected voltage generated between the two voltage electrodes. From the two abdominal impedances, the impedance in the vicinity of the subcutaneous of the abdominal portion, and the input physique information, a viscera impedance is calculated.

A body fat measuring device includes at least one pair of first electrodes to be disposed respectively at a first site and a second site sandwiching the abdomen of a subject, and an electrode group including a first abdomen electrode to be disposed at a surface of the abdomen of the subject. The first abdomen electrode includes a pair of second electrodes and a pair of third electrodes disposed in an alignment direction substantially perpendicular to a cross section of the abdomen. In a case where electric current is applied via the first electrodes, a first potential difference between electrodes of one predetermined pair included in the first abdomen electrode is detected. In a case where electric current is applied via the third electrodes, a second potential difference between the second electrodes is detected. Based on the detected two types of potential differences and physical data of the subject, the visceral fat amount of the subject is calculated.
摘要:
A health condition determining device accumulates data measured or input by an evaluation subject for each index of a plurality of items including a lifestyle index, which is an index related to body activity or lifestyle habit, and a biomarker, which is an index related to physiological state of the body. The health condition determining device then selects one or a plurality of biomarkers that lowers the evaluation of the health condition of the evaluation subject as a problematic index, extracts one or a plurality of lifestyle indices having the highest correlation with the problematic index as an improvable factor by comparing accumulated past data of the lifestyle index and the biomarker, and displays the improvable factor along with the evaluation of the health condition of the evaluation subject.

A body fat measuring apparatus includes: an upper limb unit including a hold portion that can be held in a hand of a subject and a main portion; and a lower limb electrode to be contacted with a lower limb of the subject. The hold portion includes an upper limb electrode, and the main portion includes a first surface to be contacted with a surface of an abdomen of the subject as well as a pair of first electrodes and a pair of second electrodes arranged at the first surface. The body fat measuring apparatus calculates a visceral fat amount of the subject based on two types of potential differences that are detected respectively in a case where an electric current is applied via a pair of the upper and lower limb electrodes and a case where an electric current is applied via the pair of second electrodes as well as physical data of the subject.

There are provided a hold portion that can be held in a hand of a subject, a cable having one end connected to the hold portion, and a rest portion on which a foot of the subject can be rested. The rest portion includes a reel portion connected to the other end of the cable for winding the cable, a first detection unit for detecting a draw-out extent to which the cable is drawn out from the reel portion, and a second detection unit for detecting an angle formed by the rest portion and the cable. Based on the detected draw-out extent and angle, the part length of a body part of the subject is calculated.

In an exercise machine, when a measurement starts, an electrocardiographic signal is detected by an electrocardiographic sensor 1 (ST33), a load drive is started (ST4), and heartbeat rate intervals of the electrocardiographic signal are sequentially obtained. A fluctuation of heartbeat rate intervals PI(n) % is obtained from a calculation formula in which the RR interval RR(n+1) of the current heartbeat is subtracted from the RR interval RR(n) of the previous heartbeat, which is then divided by RR(n) and multiplied by 100% (ST5). Entropy is calculated from 128 pieces of such PI (ST6). From the change of the entropy under the gradually increasing load (ST8), a minimum point of the entropy is obtained, which point is designated as an anaerobic threshold point (ST7). The load of the exercise machine is controlled employing this anaerobic threshold.

In the fat burning value calculating apparatus (6), an electrocardiographic signal is detected (1, 41, 45-47) at the start of exercise, and a heart rate is calculated from the detected value. Further, a power of heart rate variability is calculated, and an AT level is determined from the variability power. Once the AT level is determined, a preset exercise program is executed. A work load during the exercise is detected, and consumed calories are calculated. Thereafter, the electrocardiographic signal during the exercise is detected, the heart rate is calculated from the detected signal, and a fat burning rate during the exercise is calculated. A fat burning amount is calculated from the consumed calories and the fat burning rate, their accumulated values are also calculated, and these values are displayed. As a result, it is possible to provide a fat burning value calculating method and a fat burning value calculating apparatus (6) which ensure accurate calculation of the fat burning rate and the fat burning amount of an individual during exercise, regardless of increase/decrease of exercise intensity.

In a body fat measuring apparatus, a constant electric-current is flowed between hand electric-current electrodes and leg electric-current electrodes. From two detected voltages generated between an annular-shaped voltage electrode placed on an abdominal portion and two voltage electrodes placed at the both sides of a lumbar portion, two abdominal impedances are determined. Two electric-current electrodes and two voltage electrodes are placed such that they are spaced apart by a small interval from one another at an umbilicus portion. A constant electric current is flowed between the two electric-current electrodes and the impedance in the vicinity of the subcutaneous of the abdominal portion is determined from the detected voltage generated between the two voltage electrodes. From the two abdominal impedances, the impedance in the vicinity of the subcutaneous of the abdominal portion, and the input physique information, a viscera impedance is calculated.
