Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2006000181
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide an optical biological information measuring apparatus capable of accurately recognizing various factors such as the conditions of a person to be measured and measuring accurate biological information in the case of noninvasively measuring the biological information at the forearm of the person to be measured.

The optical biological information measuring apparatus comprises an armrest part for mounting the forearm B of the person to be measured in a positioned state, an optical measurement head 5 made to tightly adhere to the forearm mounted on the armrest part, and a moving mechanism for relatively moving the optical measurement head 5 or the armrest part and making the optical measurement head 5 adhere to the forearm B. The optical measurement head 5 is provided with a photodetection part 41 for irradiating the inside of the forearm B with light and detecting return light and is also provided with at least one of a moisture detection part 43 for detecting the moisture content of the skin, a fat detection part 44 for detecting a fat amount, a blood flow detection part 42 for detecting a blood flow amount and a body temperature detection part 45 for detecting a body temperature, and the photodetection part 41 and the other detection parts 42-46 are arranged along the longitudinal direction of the forearm B.
