  • Patent number: 9848783
    Abstract: Average blood pressure data of a morning time zone of every week and average blood pressure data of a night time zone of every week calculated by an average calculation portion are stored in a memory by performing blood pressure measurement. An every-week processing portion alternately switches and displays the average blood pressure data of the morning time zone and the average blood pressure data of the night time zone read from the memory based on an instruction input through an operation unit on a display unit every three seconds, or the like.

  • Patent number: 9572500
    Abstract: A first oscillation circuit and a second oscillation circuit are connected to a first pressure sensor and a second pressure sensor, respectively, and oscillate based on the capacity values of the corresponding pressure sensors. The first oscillation circuit and the second oscillation circuit operate in response to instruction from a CPU. The one of the first oscillation circuit and the second oscillation circuit that has received an activation signal from the CPU outputs a signal having a frequency that corresponds to the capacity value of the corresponding pressure sensor. An adjustment circuit is connected to the first oscillation circuit and the second oscillation circuit, and allows one of the frequency signals to pass therethrough, outputting the signal to the CPU.

  • Patent number: 9307916
    Abstract: In an electronic sphygmomanometer, the thickness of the second connection tube is set to be lower than the thickness of the first connection tube, and therefore, even if error has occurred in the structural dimensions of the pressure sensor air tube, the error can be absorbed as a result of the second connection tube extending/contracting. It is therefore possible to provide an electronic sphygmomanometer that includes, in a structure in which a pressure sensor used in the electronic sphygmomanometer is disposed, a peripheral structure for the pressure sensor that can improve the reliability of blood pressure measurement values.

  • Patent number: 9125568
    Abstract: In an electronic sphygmomanometer, a first pressure sensor and a second pressure sensor are disposed on a front surface side that serves as a first main surface of an internal circuit board, following a horizontal direction (the X direction) that is orthogonal to the direction in which the internal circuit board is sloped. As a result, the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor are disposed having the same height position. It is therefore possible to provide an electronic sphygmomanometer that includes, as a structure in which a pressure sensor used in the electronic sphygmomanometer is disposed, a peripheral structure for the pressure sensor that can improve the reliability of blood pressure measurement values.

  • Patent number: 8998819
    Abstract: In an electronic sphygmomanometer, a protruding member is provided in an outside surface of a first air port connection head, and when a first air port is pushed into the first air port connection head, the protruding member passes over a first shielding plate while elastically deforming and reaches a position on the inner side of the first shielding plate. As a result, the first air port connection head is prevented from pulling out from the first air port, and a sense of the protruding member locking in upon returning to its original form is imparted on a worker. It is therefore possible to provide an electronic sphygmomanometer that includes, as a structure in which a pressure sensor used in the electronic sphygmomanometer is disposed, a peripheral structure for the pressure sensor that can improve the reliability of blood pressure measurement values.

  • Patent number: 8900156
    Abstract: In an electronic sphygmomanometer, a CPU inlets air into a closed space, including an air bladder in an arm band, an air tube, and another air tube up to a predetermined pressure using a pump, maintains the closed space in a closed state for a certain time, and monitors a decrease in pressure within the maintained time using a pressure sensor. A determination that the air leakage is generated in the closed space including the air bladder and the air tubes is made when the pressure is decreased lower than an allowable amount or more. Similarly, the inspection is also performed to a closed space including the other air tube. The CPU determines whether the air leakage is generated and determines whether an air leakage point exists in the space including the air bladder and the air tube or the space including the other air tube.

  • Publication number: 20110218446
    Abstract: Blood pressure data read from a storage unit is displayed using a blood pressure level bar divided into rectangular segments, and a numerical value of data in a display unit. During the blood pressure measurement, the blood pressure level bar and the numerical value are displayed according to the rise and fall of the detected blood pressure in the display unit. A reference value for determining high blood pressure is displayed in association with the blood pressure level bar. The person to be measured can grasp the blood pressure section to which the measured blood pressure corresponds based on the reference value. The person to be measured can readily grasp the transition of the blood pressure value with the blood pressure level bar even if the size of the display region of the display unit is small.
