SENSING UNIT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2017127432
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technology to improve accuracy of detecting the distribution of a user's body pressure.SOLUTION: A sensing unit 20 includes a sheet member 22, at least one pressure-sensitive sensor 24, and at least one rigid body 26, and is disposed on a floor board of a bed. Each of the pressure-sensitive sensors 24 detects the pressure caused by contact. The pressure-sensitive sensors 24 are dispersed on the sheet member 22 and fixed. Each of the rigid bodies 26 is fixed on the installation surface of the sheet member 22. Each of the rigid bodies 26 supports the at least one pressure-sensitive sensor 26 from a bottom side along a top-and-bottom direction. Herein, the top-and-bottom direction is a direction along an axis orthogonal to the installation surface. Further, each of the at least one rigid body 26 is fixed to the installation surface so that at least two points of the rigid body 26 are supported on a frame 12 constituting the floor board of the bed.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
