Abstract

A wireless heartbeat detector includes a wireless pulsation detector that detects the heartbeat signals and a wireless receiving display for showing heartbeat value. The wireless pulsation detector receives the heartbeat signals and transmits the signals to the wireless receiving display. When signals come in, the program processor of the wireless receiving display calculates and then the heartbeat value is displayed on the display. The wireless pulsation detector contains at least one heartbeat detector, a signal processing circuitry and a wireless signal transmission circuitry. The heartbeat detector can be fixed on earlobe or finger tips. The pulsation signals are received and converted by the signal processing circuitry of the wireless pulsation detector into more stable signals. Then the signals are encoded and transmitted out through wireless signal transmission circuitry.

Claims

1. A wireless heartbeat detector comprising:

a wireless pulsation detector for detecting heartbeat signals and transmitting heartbeat signals, and a wireless receiving display for displaying the heartbeat value;

wherein said wireless pulsation detector having at least one heartbeat detector, a signal processing circuitry and a wireless signal transmission circuitry;

said heartbeat detector is an infrared detector to detect the pulsation signals;

said signal processing circuitry receives, converts and amplifies the signals into more stable signals;

said wireless signal transmission circuitry encodes and transmits the stable signals;

when said heartbeat detector detects the pulsation signals from earlobe or finger tips, the pulsation signals are received, converted and amplified by said signal processing circuitry, the processed and more stable signals then are encoded and transmitted out through said radio frequency wireless signal transmission circuitry.

2. The wireless heartbeat detector recited in claim 1, wherein said heartbeat detector is reflection infrared detector or penetration infrared detector.

3. The wireless heartbeat detector recited in claim 1, wherein said wireless receiving display is connected to a display apparatus, or carried on wrist or on waist.

4. The wireless heartbeat detector recited in claim 1, wherein said wireless signal transmission circuitry can be placed on the cloth, heads, earlobe collars, finger tips or wrist of the users.
