Embodiment Construction

[0034] FIG. 1 shows a hand 1 and a wrist 2 of a human body using a first embodiment of a monitoring device 4 . Referring to FIG. 2 , the device 4 comprises: a housing 6 having a time display 8 with two hands 9 ′ and 9 ″; For example, the device is a wristwatch-like device and is configured to be worn on a user's wrist.

[0035] In this embodiment, the second strap 12 is provided with two potential sensors 14, 16 for determining the potential at two different positions on the surface 18 of the wrist 2 of the human arm 20 (see FIG. 1 ). As shown schematically in FIG. 2 using dashed lines 22 and 24 , in this embodiment the sensors 14 and 16 are connected to a comparator 26 for determining the difference between the sensors 14 and 16 . The device 4 also includes a data processor 28 for determining an electrocardiogram, heart rate and / or heart rate variation from changes in the difference of the two potentials on the surface 18 of the wrist 2 . Furthermore, the device 4 also incl...

Abstract

Monitoring apparatus (4) for monitoring a user's heart, the apparatus comprising several sensors (14, 16) for measuring changes in an electrical parameter of a user's arm (20), from which changes an electrocardiogram, heart rate and / or heart rate variation of the user's heart are determinable. The apparatus further comprises a data processor (28) for determining the electrocardiogram, the heart rate and / or heart rate variation from the changes the electrical parameter; and an output device (32) for making knowable to the user the electrocardiogram, heart rate and / or heart rate variation. A basic idea of the present invention is, to use only a single wristband, particularly a wrist watch, having all the means to monitor the user's heart, without using for example a chest band. Herein, the single wristband is at least provided with the at least one sensor and particularly also comprises the data processor, and more particularly also comprises the output device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a monitoring device for monitoring the heart of a user, the device comprising: at least one sensor for measuring changes in at least one electrical parameter of a limb of the user, in particular for measuring changes in at least one electrical parameter of an arm , based on the change, an electrocardiogram, heart rate and / or heart rate change of the user's heart may be determined; a data processor for determining the electrocardiogram, heart rate and / or heart rate change based on the change of the at least one electrical parameter; and an output device, It is used to enable the user to be audibly and / or visually aware of the electrocardiogram, heart rate and / or heart rate variation. [0002] The invention also relates to a wrist watch comprising the monitoring device. [0003] Such monitoring devices are widely used by athletes in order to be able to monitor heart rate and / or changes in heart rate during endurance sports. Addit...
