The mounting table 2 is substantially rectangular in plan view. The mounting table 2 includes a housing body 3 that accommodates various devices, and a tempered glass plate 4 that is attached to an upper portion of the housing body 3.

The leg portion 7 is disposed on the lower surface 6 on the opposite side of the mounting surface 5 of the mounting table 2.
The leg 7 is connected to a load sensor 11 (not shown) provided on the mounting table 2, and when a load is applied to the mounting table 2, the load is applied to the load sensor 11 via the leg 7 and the load is applied. Sensed.

With reference to FIG.1 and FIG.2, the internal circuit 8 of the biological information measuring device 1 is demonstrated.
In the present embodiment, when the measurer is placed on the mounting table 2, the direction in which the measured person faces forward is defined as the front.

  The internal circuit 8 of the biological information measuring device 1 controls the weight measuring device 10, the impedance measuring device 20, the display device 30, the communication device 40, the operating device 50 for operating various functions, and these devices. And a control device 60.

  The weight measurement device 10 (measurement device) is a device that measures body weight. The weight measuring apparatus 10 is composed of four load sensors 11. The load sensor 11 is composed of, for example, a strain gauge element. Each of the load sensors 11 is provided corresponding to the four legs 7. The load sensor 11 measures the load applied to the corresponding leg portion 7. The load applied to the mounting table 2 is calculated based on the detection values of the four load sensors 11.

  The impedance measuring device 20 is a device for measuring bioimpedance. The impedance measuring device 20 includes four electrodes (hereinafter referred to as the first electrode 21 to the fourth electrode 24). As shown in FIG. 1, the first electrode 21 is on the front right side of the mounting surface 5, the second electrode 22 is on the rear right side of the mounting surface 5, and the third electrode 23 is on the front left side of the mounting surface 5. The four electrodes 24 are arranged on the left rear side of the placement surface 5. These electrodes are fitted in through holes 4 a formed in the tempered glass plate 4.

  The impedance measuring device 20 is placed between at least one of the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 22 and at least one of the third electrode 23 and the fourth electrode 24 in a state where the measurement subject is placed on the mounting table 2. The biological impedance of the measurement subject is measured by passing a weak current.

  The display device 30 includes a display unit 31 as a display screen. The display unit 31 is configured by a liquid crystal device, for example. The display unit 31 displays biological information such as weight and body fat percentage. For example, the display unit 31 includes a weight related to measurement, a past weight, a body fat percentage related to the measurement, a past body fat percentage, and the like.

  The communication device 40 is a device that communicates with the information terminal device 100 by short-range wireless communication. The communication device 40 communicates according to the NFC (Near Field Communication) standard. The NFC standard includes various RFIDs.

  The communication device 40 includes an antenna unit 41 that is an area for bringing the antenna of another information terminal device 100 close to the antenna of the communication device 40. The antenna of the communication device 40 is configured by a loop-shaped wiring pattern formed on the antenna substrate. The antenna substrate is disposed near the mounting surface 5 of the mounting table 2 and substantially parallel to the mounting surface 5.

  The operation device 50 is a device for operating various functions such as power on / off of the biological information measuring device 1, communication operation of the communication device 40, and switching of biological information displayed on the display unit 31. The operation device 50 includes a power switch 51, a communication switch 52, and an operation switch 53 (see FIG. 6). Some or all of these switches are constituted by capacitive switches (hereinafter, the capacitive switches are also referred to as touch switches).

The touch switch is composed of a projected capacitive touch panel 57.
The capacitive touch panel 57 detects a position where a change in capacitance occurs on the panel surface. The change in capacitance occurs when a part of the body contacts the touch panel 57 or the like. The touch switch is associated with a predetermined position range of the touch panel 57.

  The following series of processing is performed based on the operation of the touch switch. That is, when a change in capacitance occurs on the touch panel 57 due to an operation such as contact, the position range where the change occurs is specified, and based on this, the selected touch switch is specified. Then, an output signal corresponding to the selected touch switch is output to the control device 60. Based on the reception of the output signal, the control device 60 exhibits a switch corresponding function corresponding to the selected touch switch.

  When the communication switch 52 and the operation switch 53 are configured as capacitance switches, they may be set to an operation invalid state or an operation insensitive state when the communication device 40 is in a communication state.

  The operation invalid state indicates that the operation on the touch switch (capacitance type switch) is invalidated. For example, the following processing is performed. When the touch panel 57 detects a change in capacitance within a predetermined position range, the operation device 50 specifies the selected touch switch and outputs an output signal corresponding to the selected touch switch to the control device 60. . On the other hand, the control device 60 receives the output signal, but invalidates the output signal and does not exhibit the switch corresponding function corresponding to the selected touch switch.

  The operation low-sensitivity state indicates that the operation on the touch switch (capacitance type switch) is validated based on the detection of the capacitance change for a set time or longer. For example, the following processing is performed. When the touch panel 57 detects a change in capacitance within a predetermined position range, the operation device 50 specifies the selected touch switch and outputs an output signal corresponding to the selected touch switch to the control device 60. . And when this output signal continues for more than setting time, the control apparatus 60 exhibits the switch corresponding | compatible function corresponding to the selected touch switch. On the other hand, when the output signal does not last longer than the set time, the control device 60 does not exhibit the switch corresponding function corresponding to the selected touch switch.

The power switch 51 turns on or off the power of the biological information measuring device 1.
“Turn on the power switch 51” indicates that power is supplied to each device such as the control device 60 (power supply state). “Turn off the power” indicates a state in which power supply is stopped (power supply stop state) from a state in which power is supplied to each device such as the control device 60.

  The power switch 51 is set to the operation valid state regardless of the operation state of the communication device 40. For this reason, communication can be stopped by turning off the power switch 51 during communication.

  The communication switch 52 is a switch for starting communication with another information terminal device 100. When the communication switch 52 is turned on, the communication device 40 enters a communication standby state. The communication standby state indicates a receivable state in which an ID signal (Identification signal) transmitted from another information terminal device 100 can be received. When an ID signal transmitted from another information terminal device 100 is received, communication is started.

Specifically, when the communication switch 52 is turned on, the following operation is performed.
The communication standby state is maintained for a period from when the communication switch 52 is turned on until a predetermined time elapses, and thereafter, when the predetermined time elapses, the communication state is released.

  On the other hand, when an ID signal is received from another information terminal device 100 in a period from when the communication switch 52 is turned on until a predetermined time elapses, communication is started and communication is completed when communication is completed. The state is released.

Examples of the switch classified as the operation switch 53 include a setting switch 54, a past comparison switch 55, a target setting switch 56, and the like.
The setting switch 54 is a switch for registering the biological information of the measurement subject. For example, the weight and sex are registered by the setting switch 54. The setting switch 54 may be provided with a user registration function. The user registration function is a function that can register biometric information for each person to be measured for a plurality of persons to be measured.

The past comparison switch 55 is a switch for displaying past measurement data and measurement data measured this time side by side on the display unit 31.
The target setting switch 56 is a switch for setting a target for various measurement values. For example, a target body weight value is set for the body weight, or a target body fat percentage is set for the body fat percentage. The target setting switch 56 may include a switching function for switching display items to be displayed on the display unit 31. For example, the weight is displayed on the display unit 31 or the body fat percentage is displayed by operating the target setting switch 56.

The control device 60 controls the various devices.
The control device 60 has a storage unit and stores various information. For example, the storage unit stores a user name, biometric information of each user, and the like. The biometric information includes, for example, sex, past body weight, body weight measured this time, past body fat percentage, body fat percentage measured in the past, and the like.

In various measurements, the control device 60 acquires output values from the load sensor 11 and the electrodes 21 to 24, and calculates body weight and body fat percentage.
When the communication device 40 is in a communication state, the acquisition of these output values is stopped or the calculation of biological information based on these output values is stopped. This is because during measurement, the measurement subject performs an operation for communication, so that the posture is out of an appropriate posture state for measurement, and erroneous measurement is likely to occur.

  With reference to FIG. 3, an example of the arrangement relationship of each component arrange | positioned on the mounting surface 5 of the mounting base 2 is demonstrated. In the biological information measuring apparatus 1 shown in FIG. 3, the power switch 51 is configured by a capacitive touch panel 57. The communication switch 52 and the operation switch 53 are disposed on the side surface of the mounting table 2. In this example, since the communication switch 52 and the operation switch 53 are not capacitive switches, the communication switch 52 and the operation switch 53 may be set to an operation valid state during communication.

  On the placement surface 5 of the biological information measuring device 1, an antenna region 5b in which the antenna unit 41 of the communication device 40 is disposed, a display region 5c in which the display unit 31 is disposed, and an operation region in which the power switch 51 is disposed. 5a. The operation area 5a is provided between the antenna area 5b and the display area 5c.

The display unit 31 is disposed in the front center portion of the placement surface 5. That is, the display unit 31 is disposed between the first electrode 21 and the third electrode 23.
The antenna portion 41 is disposed at the rear center portion of the placement surface 5. That is, the antenna unit 41 is disposed between the second electrode 22 and the fourth electrode 24.

  An interval distance DA between the antenna unit 41 and the power switch 51 is larger than an interval distance DB between the display unit 31 and the power switch 51. That is, the power switch 51 is disposed at a position near the display area 5c in the operation area 5a.

With reference to FIG. 4, the operation of the biological information measuring apparatus 1 shown in FIG. 3 will be described.
When biological information is transmitted from the biological information measuring device 1 to the information terminal device 100, the biological information measuring device 1 is set in a communication state, and the information terminal device 100 in the communication state is brought close to the antenna unit 41 of the biological information measuring device 1. The operator who performs communication maintains the information terminal device 100 in a state of being close to the antenna unit 41 until the communication is completed. At this time, the operator communicates while holding the information terminal device 100, or performs communication by releasing the hand from the information terminal device 100. As described above, during the period from the start to the completion of communication, the operator's actions vary, but the operator's hand or finger may touch the touch panel 57 in some cases.

  When the size of the information terminal device 100 is approximately the same as the size of the hand, the frequency with which the hand or finger holding the information terminal device 100 contacts the touch panel 57 increases. That is, as shown in FIG. 4, when the information terminal device 100 is gripped by placing the finger on the front portion of the information terminal device 100 and the information terminal device 100 is brought close to the antenna unit 41, the finger enters the operation area 5a. . For this reason, if the information terminal device 100 is too close to the antenna unit 41, the finger contacts the touch panel 57.

  If the power switch 51 is present near the antenna unit 41 in the operation area 5a, the finger touches the position range corresponding to the power switch 51 on the touch panel 57, and thereby the biological information measurement is performed during communication. There is a disadvantage that the device 1 is turned off.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, the distance DA between the antenna unit 41 and the power switch 51 is made larger than the distance between the power switch 51 and the display unit 31. That is, the power switch 51 is disposed at a position near the display area 5c in the operation area 5a.

  For this reason, as compared with the case where the distance DA between the antenna unit 41 and the power switch 51 is set to be equal to or smaller than the distance DB between the power switch 51 and the display unit 31, a hand holding another information terminal device 100 or The frequency with which the finger contacts the power switch 51 is reduced. As a result, the frequency of occurrence of erroneous operations during communication is suppressed.

With reference to FIG.5 and FIG.6, the other example of the arrangement | positioning relationship of each component arrange | positioned on the mounting surface 5 of the mounting base 2 is demonstrated.
In the biological information measuring apparatus 1 shown in FIG. 5, the power switch 51, the communication switch 52, and the operation switch 53 are configured by a capacitive touch panel 57. In this example, the communication switch 52 and the operation switch 53 are set to an operation invalid state or an operation insensitive state when the communication device 40 is in a communication state (including a standby state). In FIG. 6, each switch is marked with “X” to indicate that it is in an operation invalid state or an operation insensitive state.

  On the placement surface 5 of the biological information measuring apparatus 1, an operation area 5a in which the power switch 51 is arranged, an antenna area 5b in which the antenna section 41 of the communication apparatus 40 is arranged, and a display area in which the display section 31 is arranged. 5c. The operation area 5a is provided between the antenna area 5b and the display area 5c.

The display unit 31 is disposed in the front center portion of the placement surface 5. That is, the display unit 31 is disposed between the first electrode 21 and the third electrode 23.
The antenna portion 41 is disposed at the rear center portion of the placement surface 5. That is, the antenna unit 41 is disposed between the second electrode 22 and the fourth electrode 24.

The power switch 51 and the setting switch 54 are arranged near the display unit 31.
The communication switch 52, the past comparison switch 55, and the target setting switch 56 are disposed near the antenna unit 41.

  An interval distance DA between the antenna unit 41 and the power switch 51 is larger than an interval distance DB between the display unit 31 and the power switch 51. That is, the power switch 51 is disposed at a position near the display area 5c in the operation area 5a.

Further, a communication switch 52 is disposed between the power switch 51 and the antenna area 5b. Hereinafter, this switch arrangement configuration will be described.
Various touch switches such as the power switch 51 are classified into a first switch that affects the communication state and a second switch that does not affect the communication state when the communication device 40 is in a communication state.

  The power switch 51 is a switch for turning on and off the power. That is, since the power supply to the communication device 40 is stopped by an input operation of the power switch 51, the communication state is released. For this reason, the power switch 51 is classified as a first switch.

  The communication switch 52 is set to an operation invalid state during communication. For this reason, even if there is an input operation on the communication switch 52 when the communication device 40 is in the communication state, the output signal output from the operation device 50 is invalidated based on this input operation. The communication state of the communication device 40 is not affected. For this reason, the communication switch 52 is classified as a second switch.

  The operation switch 53 is a switch for setting biometric information and switching measurement data displayed on the display unit 31. For this reason, even if there is an input operation on the operation switch 53 when the communication device 40 is in a communication state, this input operation does not affect the communication state of the communication device 40. For this reason, the operation switch 53 is classified as a second switch.

  The switch arrangement configuration is configured in consideration of the attribute of such a touch switch, that is, the attribute of whether or not the communication state of the communication device 40 is affected. That is, the switch arrangement configuration includes at least one of the second switches that do not affect the communication state of the communication device 40 between the first switch that affects the communication state of the communication device 40 and the antenna region 5b. Indicates placement.

With reference to FIG. 6, the operation of the biological information measuring apparatus 1 shown in FIG. 5 will be described.
When biological information is transmitted from the biological information measuring device 1 to the information terminal device 100, the biological information measuring device 1 is set in a communication state, and the information terminal device 100 in the communication state is brought close to the antenna unit 41 of the biological information measuring device 1. During the period from the start of communication to completion, the behavior of the operator who performs communication varies, but the operator's hand or finger may touch the touch panel 57 in some cases. As shown in FIG. 6, when the size of the information terminal device 100 is approximately the same as the size of the hand, the frequency with which the hand or finger holding the information terminal device 100 contacts the touch panel 57 increases.

  Therefore, at least one of the operation switch 53 and the communication switch 52 (second switch) that does not affect the communication state of the communication device 40 between the power switch 51 that affects the communication state of the communication device 40 and the antenna region 5b. Place one. For this reason, the frequency with which the hand or the finger holding the other information terminal device 100 contacts the power switch 51 is reduced. As a result, the frequency of occurrence of erroneous operations during communication is suppressed.

By the way, when there are a plurality of switches in the operation area 5a, the following problem arises.
In the operation area 5a, the communication switch 52 and various operation switches 53 exist near the antenna unit 41, so that a finger can easily come into contact with these switches during communication. For this reason, it is expected that the display item of the display unit 31 is switched or the setting mode for the user or the like is set during communication.

  In this regard, in the present embodiment, the operation switch 53 and the communication switch 52 (second switch) are not accepted as input signals unless the operation is in an invalid state where contact is not accepted as an input signal, or there is no continuous contact for a set time or longer. Make the operation insensitive.

  For this reason, even if a hand or a finger touches the operation switch 53 and the communication switch 52 (second switch) during communication, an input signal is not accepted, so that the operation switch 53 and the communication switch 52 (second switch) are not in contact with each other. Based on the control is not executed. That is, the occurrence of an erroneous operation due to the contact between the operation switch 53 and the communication switch 52 (second switch) is suppressed.

  Note that the power switch 51 is not set to an invalid or operation-insensitive state even during communication. For this reason, it is possible to stop communication between the biological information measuring device 1 and the other information terminal device 100 by contacting the power switch 51 during communication.

The biological information measuring device 1 of the present embodiment has the following effects.
(1) In the biological information measuring apparatus 1, as shown in FIG. 3, the distance DA between the antenna unit 41 and the power switch 51 is made larger than the distance DB DB between the display unit 31 and the power switch 51.

  That is, the power switch 51 is disposed at a position far from the antenna unit 41. For this reason, compared with the case where the distance DA between the antenna unit 41 and the power switch 51 is set to be equal to or less than the length of the distance DB between the display unit 31 and the power switch 51, the other information terminal device 100 is gripped. The frequency with which the hand or its finger touches the switch is reduced. For this reason, the frequency of occurrence of erroneous operations during communication can be suppressed.

  (2) In the biological information measuring device 1, a display in which the antenna region 5 b where the antenna unit 41 of the communication device 40 is arranged and the display unit 31 of the display device 30 are arranged on the placement surface 5 of the biological information measuring device 1. An area 5c and an operation area 5a in which the power switch 51 is disposed are provided. And as shown in FIG. 3, the operation area | region 5a is provided between the antenna area | region 5b and the display area 5c. Further, the power switch 51 is arranged at a position near the display area 5c in the operation area 5a.

  For this reason, compared with the case where the power switch 51 is disposed at a position closer to the antenna region 5b in the operation region 5a, the frequency with which the hand holding the other information terminal device 100 or its finger contacts the switch is reduced. For this reason, the frequency of occurrence of erroneous operations during communication can be suppressed.

  (3) The biological information measuring apparatus 1 is provided with a plurality of capacitive switches as shown in FIG. These capacitance-type switches affect the communication state of the communication device 40 by exhibiting the first switch that affects the communication state of the communication device 40 by exhibiting the switch correspondence function, and the switch correspondence function. Type with no second switch. Then, at least one of the communication switch 52 and the operation switch 53 classified as the second switch is arranged between the power switch 51 classified as the first switch and the antenna region 5b.

  This switch arrangement configuration has the following advantages over the opposite arrangement configuration, that is, the configuration in which the communication switch 52 and the operation switch 53 are not arranged between the power switch 51 (first switch) and the antenna region 5b. An effect is obtained. That is, in this switch arrangement configuration, the power switch 51 is arranged at a position far from the antenna region 5b as compared to the reverse arrangement configuration. For this reason, the frequency which the hand holding the other information terminal device 100 or its finger contacts a 1st switch decreases. As a result, the frequency of occurrence of erroneous operations during communication is suppressed.

  (4) In the biological information measuring device 1 in which the second switch is disposed closer to the antenna region 5b than the first switch, the hand or the finger holding the other information terminal device 100 during communication is the first switch There are cases where two switches are touched. For this reason, control based on a 2nd switch may be performed during communication.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the communication device 40 is in the communication state, at least one of the second switches is set to the operation invalid state or the operation insensitive state. For this reason, even if a hand or a finger touches the second switch during communication, an input signal is not accepted, so control based on the contact of the second switch is not executed. For example, even if a finger touches the past comparison switch 55 that is one of the operation switches 53, the display on the display unit 31 cannot be switched.

  (5) In the present embodiment, the power switch 51 is classified as a first switch, and the communication switch 52 and the operation switch 53 are classified as a second switch. In the case of this configuration, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of an erroneous operation of turning off the power during communication.

  The present invention includes an embodiment different from the above embodiment. Hereinafter, the modification of the said embodiment as other embodiment of this invention is shown. The following modifications can be combined with each other.

  In the present embodiment, the power switch 51 is classified as a first switch, and the communication switch 52 and the operation switch 53 are classified as a second switch. However, this type is not fixed. That is, the type of each switch is performed paying attention to the function assigned to each switch. When the function assigned to each switch is changed, the type of the switch is changed. For example, the communication switch 52 of the present embodiment is set to an operation invalid state during communication. On the other hand, the communication switch 52 may be provided with a function of receiving an input operation for stopping communication during communication. . In this case, since the communication switch 52 is a switch that affects the communication state when the communication device 40 is in the communication state, it should be classified as the first switch. In this case, the communication switch 52 categorized as the first switch is preferably arranged near the display unit 31 like the power switch 51 shown in FIG. That is, it is preferable to dispose the operation switch 53 as the second switch between the communication switch 52 classified as the first switch and the antenna region 5b.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the various switches are arranged in two stages, but even if all the touch switches are arranged at positions closer to the display unit 31 so as to be arranged in one stage. Good. That is, for all the touch switches, a configuration in which the distance DA between the antenna unit 41 and the touch switch is larger than the distance DB between the display unit 31 and the touch switch may be adopted. According to this configuration, the effect (1) can be obtained.

  In the present embodiment, the power switch 51 is configured as a capacitive switch, but the power switch 51 may be configured as a push button switch and provided on the side surface of the biological information measuring device 1. In this case, another touch switch is disposed at a position far from the antenna unit 41, for example.

  The biological information measuring device 1 of the present embodiment includes the weight measuring device 10 and the impedance measuring device 20 as measuring devices that measure physical information, but the biological information measuring device 1 may be provided with another type of measuring device.
