Biologic information detecting apparatus
First Claim
1. A biologic information detecting apparatus comprising:
- a first arm and a second arm that face each other;
a spindle connecting first ends of the first and second arms;
a distance varying mechanism arranged on the spindle and adjusting an interval between second ends of the first and second arms;
a cuff for pressing a living body, which is attached to a facing side of the second end of the first arm; and
a sensor for detecting biologic information that is attached to the facing side of the second end of at least one of the first and second arms,characterized in thatthe biologic information is a blood pressure and the sensor detects the blood pressure;
a projecting part of a tragus is adapted to be sandwiched by the first and second arms,a front end part of at least one of the first and second arms is adapted to be fixed to a surface position of the tragus,the cuff can slide in a long axis direction of the first arm, anda spring biases the cuff to slide in the long axis direction of the first arm toward the tip of the second end of the first arm.

Abstract
In measurement requiring application of pressure to a tissue of a living body such as blood pressure measurement, noise due to vibration tends to occur. It is difficult to accurately measure a pulse wave and a blood pressure value. It is also difficult to measure blood pressure in life activities or to measure blood pressure at intervals or continuously where a tonometer is always attached. There is consequently a problem of holding a biologic information detecting apparatus. The present invention solves the problems by providing an easy-to-wear biologic information detecting apparatus for stably detecting biologic information. The biologic information detecting apparatus includes a sensor for detecting biologic information in a pair of arms connected via a spindle, and the sensor is tightly attached to a projecting part in a living body, particularly, a tragus of an auricle.
