In the health management device of the present invention, as an application example of a biological information measuring device other than a body fat meter, a motion detector is added as an input means for measuring and automatically inputting biological information. FIG. 10 is an example of use in which a watch-type acceleration detector 26 is added as a motion detector. The acceleration detector 26 has a data sending part 27 which sends data to the data receiving part 3 in the first or second embodiment in real time. In addition, guide data and feature data such as precautions at the time of measurement and instructions on how to operate are stored in the memory card 5 as the physical index data. The characteristic data is data for performing simulations such as exercise, nutritional management, and weight loss based on the characteristics reflecting the physical information of the subject after obtaining the characteristics. In this application example, the motion simulation data is performed according to the characteristics of boxers, and the acceleration detector 26 is used to operate the characteristics on the screen.

The flow chart shown in FIG. 11 is the flow chart of FIG. 3 shown when the operation of the health management device in the first embodiment is described above, in which the steps from step S12 to step S21 for selecting physical index data are included. Flowchart for selection of body index data replaced by feature data. First, when the physical index data is selected, characteristic data as selectable physical index data are displayed on the selection screen. The subject selects and decides using the manual input unit 2 , and reads out characteristic data from the memory card 5 in step S30 . Next, in step S31, it is judged whether the characteristics reflecting the physical information of the subject have been registered in the memory unit 14 or not. If it has been registered, then proceed to Yes, and the characteristics are fetched from the personal storage unit 14 in step S32. When the feature is not registered, proceed to No, and in step S40, the feature is regenerated by measuring the body information according to the body information and personal information input from the input part of the automatic input and the manual input part, and is converted into a video while registering in the personal data storage part 14. The signal is displayed on TV8.

To generate boxing characteristics, it is necessary to set characteristics such as weight, body fat percentage, age, gender, and the appearance, strength parameters, and weight of boxers. Fig. 12 is a display example of generated features. After the characteristics are confirmed, immediately in step S33, by inputting the amount of exercise and exercise intensity of the day as the training information from the manual input part 2, or the lifestyle selection table obtained in the form of inquiry, etc., in conjunction with the above-mentioned physical information, in step S34 again Generate characteristic levels.

Thereafter, at step 35 the conditions for initiating a game event using the feature are set. For example, it is judged from the physical information stored in the personal storage unit 14 whether the measurement has continued for a certain period of time, whether the conditions such as whether the body fat percentage is increasing or not are cleared, and the like. If the condition is cleared, it is judged as yes, and the process proceeds to step S36 to start the game event. If the condition is not cleared, it is judged as No, and the game event ends without starting. As soon as the game event is started, in step S37, the game is played by counting the number of motions of the subject by operating the acceleration detector 26 as the amount of exercise. The counted number of times is received by the data receiving part 3 through the data sending part 27 . In step S38, in order to determine the outcome of the game, a reference value of the motion count of the acceleration detector 26 is set to determine whether the motion count of the subject reaches the reference value. When it is reached, it is considered that the game is won, and it is judged as yes, and the next game is advanced. The game wins again, and it is judged to be yes in step S39, and the game is cleared to end. In steps S38 and S39, when the reference value is not reached, it is regarded as a failure, and if the judgment is negative, the game can be played again by returning to step S36.

The characteristic data in this application example is the data that simulates the movement of boxers, and it can also simulate dance competitions and fighting games of dancers and martial artists. In addition, it is not limited to simulating sports, and it is also possible to use daily body information as an input parameter, and change the display screen and structure according to the change to play the game. The game of life in which wealth and luck change with changes in characteristics, and in daily life, especially the daily diet, conducts a detailed investigation of the contents of the daily diet, and from the results of this investigation and changes in characteristics, it is possible to speculate on partial eclipse and nutrients The excesses and deficiencies of daily diet management simulation games and more.

In addition, although the characteristics are operated through the acceleration detector 26, it is also possible that the progress and the end of the game are all processed in the control unit, and the progress and result images of the game are generated and displayed.

In addition, although the acceleration detector 26 is used as a motion detector, it is also possible to connect a data transmission unit that transmits data to the data reception unit 3 to a device that measures body information such as a pedometer, a dynamometer, and a stepper. one of the.

As mentioned above, in the first and second embodiments and application examples, in step S12 of FIG. 3, the physical index data is selected by operating the manual input part 2 to convert the displayed physical index data, but it may also be performed on the TV. 8. Simultaneously display multiple body index data on one screen for browsing.

In addition, the memory card 5 is used to record the body index data. For example, as shown in the screen display example of FIG. body fat percentage to show whether it is in the appropriate range. In addition, by using the stored past data and the target value set by yourself, it is possible to display the comparison with the past data and how much weight loss is required after reaching the target value. It is also possible to compare a plurality of persons having different target values by converting the degree of completion into a percentage of the target value by taking the target value as the achievement rate of 100%.

In addition, by storing the above-mentioned physical index data with a built-in storage function for recording the physical index data, it is not necessary to prepare various memory cards and save the operation event of replacement, so it is possible to easily access most of the physical index data . In addition, by recording the personal data of the personal data storage unit 14 in the memory card, it is possible to carry and move. For example, if you have this health management device at your destination, you can continue to measure it by using a memory card for personal data.

Although the body fat meter 17 is used as an input means for measuring and inputting body information, devices for measuring body information such as a pulse meter, a blood pressure meter, and a center-of-gravity shake meter may also be used. In this case, it is only necessary to read the physical index data corresponding to the content of each measuring device from the memory.

In addition, the television 8 is a general-purpose display, and may be a computer display, a projector, etc. capable of receiving video signals. In addition, the video signal conversion part 13 can match the signal receiving form of the display: RF signal, composite video signal (NTSC, PAL, SECAM, etc.), S video signal, component video signal, analog RGB signal, digital RGB signal and other video signals It is also possible to convert one of them.

Fig. 14 is a configuration diagram of a health management device 101 as a third embodiment of the present invention. The health management device 101 is composed of a main body part 102 and a measurement input part 103 of a known body fat meter for measuring body weight and body resistance (hereinafter referred to as BI value), and is connected by a cable 7 .

The main body part 102 has a display part 104, a personal key switch part 105 for a private power switch, and a manual input part 106 for manually inputting body information other than weight value and BI value, personal information such as age and gender, and screen operation information.

FIG. 15 is a block diagram showing the functional configuration of the health management device 101 . The previous measurement input unit 103, the previous manual input unit 106, the previous display unit 104, and the above-mentioned personal key switch unit 105 made of the body weight measurement unit 101 and the BI measurement unit 111 are connected to the control unit 117. In addition, the personal information storage unit 115 that stores and arranges the individual registered personal information and measurement history data, etc. individually, the target value setting unit 112 that sets the target value of health management, and the score that scores the degree of completion of health management for the target The part 113 and the timing part 114 for measuring time are connected to the control part 117 . In addition, the power supply 116 is a power supply for supplying electric power to the healthcare device 1 .

Next, the operation of the healthcare device 101 will be described using the flowchart of FIG. 16 . In this embodiment, the case where weight loss, that is, weight loss is an example, is taken as an example.

First, when one of the plurality of switch groups of the individual key switch section 105 is pressed, the power of the device is turned on. This switch group is a private power switch assigned to each test subject at the time of personal registration. When the activated power switch is the switch 101, in step S101, it is automatically judged whether the switch 101 has been assigned to the subject, that is, whether the individual has been registered. If it can be confirmed that the personal information of the subject in the arrangement of the switch 101 in the personal information storage unit 115 constituted by the arrangement of the individual, that is, the switch 101, the personal information of the subject and the history data of the measurement result and the score result, etc., are judged to be If the individual has already been registered, proceed to step S102, and start the measurement preparation work for read data.

At the beginning, once the power is turned on by a switch in the above-mentioned switch group, as above-mentioned at once in step S101, according to whether it is possible to confirm and store the history data of the subject in the arrangement of the switch 102 in the personal information storage part 115, to the individual It is judged whether it has been registered or not. Here, when the subject's history data does not exist, it is judged that the switch 2 is not registered and the process proceeds to NO, and individual registration is performed in step S114. Registration is performed by operating the manual input unit 106 according to instructions displayed on the display unit 104 to input personal information such as height, age, sex, and name. As soon as the input of the instruction is completed, in step S115, the switch 102 is immediately assigned as the subject's personal key, and stored in the predetermined arrangement of the personal information storage unit 115 together with the input personal information.

Next, in step S103, the measurement input unit 103 is used to measure the body weight and body fat percentage by a publicly known method. The measurement result is displayed on the display section 104 at the same time as the measurement ends in step S104.

Along with this result display, it is automatically judged in step S105 whether a target value for health management has been set. In the above-mentioned step S101, the switch to turn on the power supply is not registered, and when the history data is not read in the step S102, it is considered that the target value is not set, and it automatically proceeds to NO in the step S105. Firstly, in step S116, the safety area for the safety and health management of the subject is automatically set by the target setting component 112. Using the BMI standard value as an index of the general appropriate weight value, calculate the standard weight value kg = 22 × (height m) ² and compare with the above measurement results. If the weight value of the measurement result is large, then it is determined from this weight value The difference between the standard weight values is used as the health management safety area of the upper limit of the target value, and the target value setting screen is displayed on the display part 104 as shown in FIG. 18 . Conversely, if the weight value of the measurement result is small, a warning that the amount of weight loss is not a safe health management is displayed on the display unit 104 .

Once the health management safety area is determined, a target value is set from the above-mentioned health management safety area in step S117. The display example of Fig. 18 is the display screen when the setting of the target value is completed. When the target value is set immediately after the health management safety zone is determined, the upper limit of the weight loss value that is automatically set in step S116, that is, the upper limit of the health management safety zone The limit value is displayed in the input box for entering the target value on the display screen, and the cursor is set at the same time. The weight loss value displayed in the target value input box is changed in units of 1 kg within the health management safe area by the operation of the manual input unit 106, and the subject selects and determines the target value.

Once the target value is set, continue to move the cursor to the course input box in step S118. Step S117 Similarly, in the course input box on the display screen, the subject can use the manual input unit 106 to select a course by using the target weight loss value for one month as shown below. Safe weight loss is generally carried out at a rate of about 3 kg/month, and a higher rate of weight loss is more likely to cause rebound. Therefore, 3 kg/month is the more difficult course, 2 kg/month is the normal course, and 1 kg/month is the easy course.

As soon as course selection is completed, the above-mentioned target value and target period are determined automatically in step S119, and the set target is displayed in a graphic form as shown in the display example of FIG. 19 . For example, if the health management safety zone calculated based on the measurement results and the standard body weight is 0 (kg) or more and 6.0 (kg) or less, firstly, in the target value input box, the subject uses the manual input part 6 to select according to the safety zone. The target reduction value of 6kg, and secondly, in the case of selecting ordinary courses in the course input box, the target period is automatically set to 3 months, as shown in Figure 19 is displayed.

After determining the target value and the target period, in step S109, immediately record the measurement results, target value safety zone, target value, course, target period, etc., together with the measurement date and time read in from the timing unit 114, into the personal information storage as history data. Part 115.

In addition, in the case where the power-on switch in the above-mentioned step S101 is an individual registered, it is judged that the above-mentioned target value setting is completed and proceeds to YES. Continue to automatically judge in step S106 whether the measurement results before a preset certain period of time are stored in the personal information storage part 115 as history data. If there is no measurement result before a certain period of time, proceed to "none", and in step S109, the current measurement result is recorded in the personal information storage unit 115 as history data together with the measurement date and time read from the timer unit 114 .

In step S106, if there is a measurement result before a certain period of time, then proceed to "Yes", read the history data before a certain period of time from the personal information storage part 115, and transfer to the calculation and scoring part of step S107 for health management. Completion is graded. Simultaneously with the completion of the scoring, in step S108, a change chart of the score and the amount of decrease is displayed on the display unit 104 as shown in the display example of FIG. 20 . In addition, calculation results and score details are displayed as in the display example shown in FIG. 21 , and display switching can be performed using the manual input means 106 .

Simultaneously with the display, the measurement results, scoring results, etc. are recorded in the personal information storage unit 115 as history data together with the measurement date and time read from the timekeeping unit 114 in step S109. The calculation and scoring in step S107 will be separately described later as a subroutine through the flow chart shown in FIG. 17 .

Once the health management completion degree is scored in step S107, the scoring result can be compared with other people's health management completion degree. First, in step S110, after the subject finishes displaying the scoring result by operating the manual input unit 106, it is automatically judged whether the conditions for performing comparison with others are ready or not. This condition is divided into two conditions, one condition is that there is a scoring result after measurement, and the second condition is that there are many personal records stored in the personal information storage unit 115 . Under the unsatisfied situation of one of these two conditions, because can't compare and advance to No by score, press any one of individual key switch parts 105 to turn off the power supply, end.

When the two conditions are all satisfied, proceed to yes, and in step S111, a list of names and personal key switch numbers of people other than the subject stored in the personal information storage part 115 is displayed on the display as a list of comparison objects. part 104 on. After the testee selects at least one of them using the manual input unit 106, the history data of the scoring results of the testee and the comparison target person are immediately read from the personal information storage unit 115 in step S112. As shown in the display example of FIG. 22 , score comparison is performed by creating and displaying a score change graph in which score data of the past several weeks are counted on a weekly basis. Since only the score is displayed, the privacy of the comparison object can also be protected.

After the browsing is completed, it is selected in step S113 whether to compare with the scores of other comparison target persons or to end. In the case of converting the target person comparison score, proceed to the step S111 to select the target person again. When ending, press any one of the individual key switches 105 to turn off the power and end.

In addition, in step S101, individual registration and identification are performed by allocating any individual key in the individual key switch part 105, but the personal information recorded in the personal information storage part 115 can be read out without confusion through other It is also possible to realize the known personal identification method. For example, individual registration and identification and a list of registrants in order of individual registration are displayed on the display unit 104 by inputting a password different for each individual, and a selection is made therefrom.

In addition, the score comparison and display related to step S112 is realized by counting weekly score data to make a score change graph. This period is not limited to every week, for example, every day, every month or every measurement day. It is also possible for the unit to conduct statistics, and it is also possible to calculate the average score for a certain period of time for statistics.

Next, the calculation and scoring performed by the scoring unit 113 in the above-mentioned step S107 will be described using the block diagram of the subroutine shown in FIG. 17 . First, the scoring of the relevant measurements takes place in three stages. The calculation of each stage will be described later. In the first stage, as shown in step S200 , the body weight change in a certain period is compared and judged against the ideal target value. In the second stage, the safety of weight loss is judged as shown in step S201. In the third stage, as shown in step S202, the balance between body weight and body fat percentage is judged.

In step S200 of the first stage of measurement result scoring, the ideal target value of each measurement day is calculated based on the target values (target amount and target period) set in steps S116, S117, and S118. The calculation formula is, ideal target value=target amount×(measurement elapsed time/target time). This ideal target value is compared with the weight change amount of the weight value read from the personal information storage unit 115 on the measurement day before a certain period relative to the weight value measured this time. For example, if the weight change is within the range of ±0.5kg of the ideal target value, 90 points will be scored, and if it is within the range of ±1.0kg, the score will be 80 points. The smaller the range, the higher the score. Depending on the range of the weight change The inside decides the score. However, the relevant range is best determined taking into account factors such as daily fluctuations that are not within this limit.

Next, as the second stage of scoring the measurement results, in step S201 it is judged whether the weight loss is carried out healthily within the safe area. With regard to the above-mentioned body weight change from the measurement day before the certain period to the current measurement day, it is judged whether it is within the safe area, that is, at a rate of 3 (kg/month). This makes it possible to check and warn the degree of measurement for dangerous weight loss such as sudden weight loss and weight gain, and to respond as early as possible.

Then, as the third stage of scoring the measurement results, in step S202, it is judged whether the amount of weight change reduced by weight loss is not only the change of muscle mass and water mass in the body but the change of fat mass, and the change of body weight value and fat mass balance of rate changes. Comparing the measurement result data of the measurement day before a certain period of time with the measurement result of this time, if the body weight value and the body fat percentage decrease together to achieve a balance, the weight change is considered to be the body fat change amount, and it is judged to be an appropriate weight loss.

The three-stage scoring related to the above measurement results is illustrated with specific examples. However, here, the measurement day one month ago is used as the measurement day before a certain period of time. When setting the goal, the target weight is 60.2kg for a person with a height of 165.4cm, a weight of 66.2kg, and a body fat percentage of 28.0%. moon. Assuming that two months have passed now, set the changes to be 2.0kg and 5.0kg in the first month and the second month respectively, and 25.0% and 23.5% in body fat percentage respectively, and score the measurement results.

First, in the first stage of scoring the measurement results in step S200, 2.0kg is calculated by ideal target value=target amount×(measurement elapsed time/target time)=6.0kg×(two months/three months). The amount of reduction in the month so far is 5.0kg-2.0kg=3.0kg, which is within the range of the ideal target value ±1.0kg, so add 80 points.

Secondly, in step S201 of the second stage, it is judged whether the reduction amount of this month is carried out in a safe area. A reduction of 3 kg per month, that is, a weight loss of 3 (kg/month) compared with the measurement day one month ago, can be said to be in the safe area, and the score is added by 1 point.

Then, in step S202 of the third stage, it is judged whether the body fat percentage has also decreased along with the decrease in body weight. The body fat rate is now 23.5%, and since it has decreased from 25.0% a month ago, it is considered appropriate weight loss for body fat reduction, and 1 point is added.

After the three-stage scoring related to the above measurement results is completed, next, in step S205, whether the measurement can be continued every day is continuously judged and scored. The date is read from the timer unit 114, and it is automatically judged whether or not this date is continuous with the date stored in the personal information storage unit 115 as history data. For example, 1 point is added when the measurement was performed on 2 consecutive days, 0 point is added when the last measurement was 2 days ago, and 1 point is subtracted when the last measurement was more than 3 days ago.

In addition, in step S206, surveys on health knowledge, lifestyle, etc. are conducted on the subjects using the questionnaire component, and the survey results are scored. For example, questions such as "do you have three meals a day?" Select yes/no. In addition, ask questions that are also related to health, such as asking questions such as "Is not eating effective for weight loss" and "Is strenuous exercise effective for weight loss" and choose ○/×, and the answers to these questions are correct or healthy. One point, on the contrary minus one point for scoring.

In step S207 , the full score of the score is set to 100 points, and the total of scoring results equal to or higher than the score out of the 100-point full score is calculated. After that, it returns to the main flow and displays as shown in the display examples of FIGS. 20 and 21 . However, the allocation of points and related calculations in the above scoring are not limited to those described above. The cumulative score may be calculated and displayed in conjunction with the scoring results up to the previous time stored in the history data of the personal information storage unit 115 .

A fourth embodiment of the present invention is a health management device capable of performing unspecified health management using a network such as the Internet.

23 is an overall configuration diagram of a health management device as a fourth embodiment. The personal terminal 108 and the server 109 for data management form a network capable of transmitting and receiving signals through a network communication circuit 122 .

The personal terminal 108 is connected to the measurement input unit 103 and the main body unit 102 via a cable 107 for measuring and inputting biological information such as body weight and body fat percentage. In addition, the main body unit 102 has a display unit 104 and a manual input unit 106 for manually inputting biological information other than body weight and BI values, personal information such as age and gender, and screen operation information. Further, the main body part 102 is connected with a network communication loop 122 .

Fig. 24 is a block diagram showing the functional configuration of the health management device. In the personal terminal 108 , a measurement input unit 103 having a body weight measurement unit 110 and a BI measurement unit 111 , a display unit 104 , and a manual input unit 106 are connected to a personal terminal control unit 120 . The power source 116 is a power source that supplies power to the personal terminal 108 .

In addition, in the server 109, the target value setting part 112 for setting the health management target value, the scoring part 113 for scoring the completion degree of health management against the target, the timing part 114 for measuring time, and storing the history data of the subject in The server-side control unit 121 is connected to the personal information storage unit 115 that is organized into a database by classification such as gender and age group. The personal terminal control unit 120 is connected to the server side control unit 121 via the network communication circuit 122 and can send and receive signals.

The operation of this healthcare device will be described using the block diagram of FIG. 25 . First, in step S121, the power of the personal terminal 108 is turned on, and the server 109 is connected to the network. Immediately after the access starts, in step S122, the server 109 sends a password input box to the personal terminal 108 and displays it on the display unit 104 in order for the subject to input a password as a registration confirmation. The subject inputs the password by operating the manual input unit 106 and sends it to the server 109 . The server 109 receives the signal and confirms the input of the password, proceeds to OK, and enters the biological information measurement step through the measurement input part 103 in step S123.

In addition, when the individual is not registered, if the manual input part 106 is used to send a signal to the server 109 without inputting the password, the server 109 judges that the password has not been input as soon as the signal is received, and proceeds to NG, at step S135. According to the instruction sent by the server 109, personal information such as height, age, gender, name and the like are entered through the manual input part 106 to perform personal registration. Next, in step S136, the server 109 formulates a password for accessing the network, and stores and records these personal registration information in a predetermined sequence in the personal information storage unit 115 . In step S123, the body information measurement step is entered through the measurement input part 103 .

In step S123 , according to the instruction issued by the server 109 , the subject measures the body information through the measurement input part 103 . The measurement data is processed by the personal terminal control unit 120. Once the measurement is finished, the measurement result is automatically sent to the server side control unit 121 through the network communication circuit 122 in step S124, and is displayed on the display unit 104 at the same time.

The measurement results sent to the server 109 are processed by the server-side controller 121 . First, it is automatically judged in step S125 whether the goal of health management is set. When the target value is stored in the subject's history data in the personal information storage unit 115, it is determined that the target value has been set, and the process proceeds to YES. Next, in step S126, it is automatically judged whether or not there is a measurement result of a predetermined period beforehand as history data in the personal information storage unit 115 in order to compare it with the measurement result of this time at the time of scoring. When there is no measurement result before a certain period, it progresses to "none", and proceeds to the storage part of step S129. When there is a measurement result before a certain period, advance to "Yes" and read the above-mentioned historical data. Calculations and scoring are performed in step S127, and scoring results are displayed in step S128. Here, the operation, scoring, and display are the same as those described in the block diagram of the subroutine of the third embodiment shown in FIG. 17 .

In a case where the target value is not stored in step S125, proceeding to NO, target setting is performed in step S137. Here, in the block diagram of the main process of the third embodiment shown in FIG. 16 , the goal setting is the same as the action and display described in steps S117 , S118 , and S119 , such as setting the safety area, setting the target value, and selecting courses.

In step S129, the information obtained through the above steps, that is, the measurement results, scoring results, target setting values, etc., are saved and recorded in the personal information storage part 115 as history data together with the measurement date and time read in from the timing part 114. Arrangement of personal information.

After that, start to compare and rate the score results with other people's health management completion. First, in step S130, it is automatically judged whether or not the conditions for creating the comparison and rating table are fully prepared. This condition is that a plurality of persons including the subject are registered in the personal information storage section 115 and have scoring results. If this condition is not satisfied, the score cannot be compared and proceeds to No, and the power is turned off and the network is cut off to end.

If the above conditions are met, proceed to YES, and perform point comparison and group selection in step S131. This group is obtained by grouping each arrangement to which the subject belongs among the arrangements in which a plurality of registrants are classified and stored in the personal information storage unit 115, and can be used as a comparison object. For example, in the case of sorting by age group and gender, assuming that the subject is a 28-year-old male, you can select the 20-year-old male group, the 20-year-old group, the male group, and the entire subject group as comparison objects .

The server 109 creates a list of the groups to be compared, sends it to the personal terminal 108 and displays it on the display unit 104 . The subject uses the manual input unit 106 to select a group from the list.

The scores are compared within the group selected in step S132, and the rating status is displayed as shown in the display example of FIG. 26 .

After the viewing of the rating display is completed, it is determined in step S133 whether to perform comparison with other groups. When it is judged that the operation of the manual input unit 106 is to be switched, the process proceeds to Yes, and the list of the comparison target groups is displayed, and group selection is performed again in step S131. In addition, when the comparison with other groups is not performed, it progresses to No, and power-off and network disconnection are complete|finished.

Also, in the physical information input shown in the third and fourth embodiments of the present invention, the measurement input part 103 only uses a body fat meter, but it can also be connected by connecting a plurality of blood pressure monitors, pulse meters, pedometers, etc. The measurement input unit sets goals and scoring standards corresponding to each piece of body information and stores them as history data, enabling comprehensive health management using multiple pieces of body information.

In addition, for a plurality of physical information inputs, the group 107 can also be designed to be detachable, and can be replaced with measurement input components. Furthermore, by providing a signal receiving part on the main body part 102 and a signal sending part on the measurement input part, wireless transmission can be performed using infrared rays, light, radio waves, and the like.

In addition, the above-mentioned biological information is automatically input through the measurement input unit 103 , and the value of previously measured biological information may be input through the manual input unit 106 .

In addition, in the target setting, the target amount is input using the manual input unit 106, and the standard body weight value may be automatically set as the target amount in order to set a health management safety zone.

In addition, the input of the target amount is the difference between input reduction values, but it can also be expressed by, for example, an absolute value of the physical information of the subject to obtain numerical values such as input of the target body weight, and measurement to be input and displayed.

In addition, when selecting a target course, a health survey concerning health management may be conducted, and a course may be selected from the result. This health survey is a questionnaire survey in the form of ○× on the combination method of health management in ordinary life, the way of eating, the amount of exercise, etc., depending on which aspect the number of ○ has, or whether the specific item is ○ or × , For example, if you have rebound experience, it is better to lengthen the target time and reduce the weight little by little, and set a 3-month course. Or, if the target time can be shortened due to the normal amount of exercise, a one-month course, etc. can be set. A course suitable for the lifestyle of the subject can be automatically set.

Further, the target value is only the weight value, but it is also possible to set a target value of body fat percentage or body fat mass different from this weight value, by scoring each degree of completion, for example, an overweight person wants to maintain the weight value When reducing the body fat percentage due to the current situation, or when an overweight person wants to maintain the body fat percentage and gain weight, etc., it is possible to carry out health management not limited to weight loss.

In addition, in the calculation and scoring shown in the flow chart of Fig. 17, the process of body changes in a certain period of time is scored as the degree of completion of health management, and it can also be compared with the appropriate value of the physical information at the time of measurement and Score to indicate its appropriateness.

In addition, the measurement result data read from the personal information storage unit 115 as history data is not limited to the data of the measurement day one month ago shown in the specific example of the above-mentioned third embodiment. For example, when measurement result data from a certain period of time ago are available, such as the previous measurement day and the measurement day one week ago, in the safe zone judgment of step S201, the amount of weight change for a certain period of time can be converted into a month-equivalent The amount of change is compared with the safe zone (3kg/month). However, considering fluctuations within a day as daily measurement data, it is better to use a certain time span such as 1 week, 10 days, and 1 month for comparison. In addition, the data on the measurement day one week ago or one month ago may be data estimated from the measurement results on the measurement days before and after it.

In addition, in the continuous judgment and scoring of step S205, by reading the time other than the date, it is judged whether it is measured in the same time zone every day, which can especially reduce the fluctuation error of the BI value within a day caused by time changes . In addition, by allowing the subject to use the manual input unit 106 to input, for example, whether the measurement was taken after taking a bath, to determine whether the measurement was performed under certain conditions, the error of fluctuations in the BI value within a day caused by changes in the physical state can be reduced. .

In addition, regarding the comparison of the degree of completion of health management with other people, in the personal information storage unit 115, only the individual registration of the subject is registered, or when there is no score result, it is also possible to store the score result of the imaginary object in advance. data to compare against this hypothetical object.

Also, regarding display, by installing a video signal conversion device that converts measurement results and scoring results into video signals on the main body part 102, and further replacing the display part 104, the main body part 102 is connected to general-purpose displays such as televisions and computer monitors, Measurement results and scoring results can be displayed on a general-purpose display, and various display contents such as image data and stereograms can be used for expression. In addition, in the case of comprehensive health management using a plurality of measurement input means, multiple pieces of biological information input from each measurement input means can be displayed on the screen.

The health management device of the present invention is composed of an input device for inputting body information such as body weight and body fat percentage, a conversion device for converting the body information input from the input device into a video signal, and a display device for displaying the video signal. Since a general-purpose display is used as a display device, it can be an inexpensive device.

In addition, in the health management device of the present invention, since the input device and the converting device are integrally formed, the device can be downsized.

In addition, since the health management device of the present invention is composed of independent devices such as the input device, the conversion device, and the display device, each device can be placed separately, and measurement can be performed at any location.

Since the aforementioned health management device has an auxiliary input device for inputting biological information, it is possible to input not only the biological information input by the input device but also other measured biological information, and it is also possible to make a judgment based on a plurality of pieces of information.

Since the conversion device transmits body information from the input device by wire or wireless means such as radio waves and light, even if each device is placed separately, it can be displayed in real time based on measurement and video signals.

In addition, the health management device of the present invention consists of an input device for inputting body information such as body weight and fat percentage, a storage device for storing at least one reference data related to this body information in advance, and a device for comparing and calculating the above-mentioned body information and the above-mentioned reference data. The comparison calculation means, the conversion means for converting the result of the calculation into a video signal, and the display means for displaying the above video signal can be inexpensive because a general-purpose display is used as the display means.
