  • Force detector
    Patent number: 10816417
    Abstract: A force detector includes a support, fluid bags, a contact portion, a detector, and a computer. The contact portion is opposite to a side on which the fluid bags are in contact with the support and is adjacent to the fluid bags. The computer obtains information regarding the internal pressures of the fluid bags from the detector. Upon application of an external force to the contact portion from an object, the computer calculates a force acting in a tangential direction on a contact surface between the object and the contact portion based on a difference between the internal pressures of the fluid bags.

  • SPHYGMOMANOMETER
    Publication number: 20200315472
    Abstract: A sphygmomanometer includes a frame that spatially demarcates a region in which a display screen is displayed. On the display screen, a scale indication for making a value of pressure readable is displayed along one direction. On the display screen, a mark that represents a pressure of a cuff by a position of the mark with respect to the scale indication is displayed. When the pressure changes, a display control unit performs control to slide the scale indication with respect to the frame along the one direction at a slide speed corresponding to a predetermined pressure change rate or a pressure change rate obtained by actual measurement in a pressurizing process or a depressurizing process of the cuff so that the mark falls within the frame.
