背景技术Background technique
观测人体于各种情境下的反应为提升人类生活品质的重要因素,透过评测人体状态的方式,可进一步改善人类的健康或激发人类的潜能,例如于医疗应用中,利用周期性测量评估病患生理状态的方式,则可随时得知病患身体的变化,并据以选择最有利的治疗及照护方式;或于体育应用中,利用测量运动员于训练或比赛时的生理状态的方式,则可据以依照运动员负荷的差异,调整最佳的训练方式,借以发挥出最大的潜力。而随着科技的进步,如何提供使用者更便利且正确的生理状态感测结果亦成为重要的课题。Observing the response of the human body in various situations is an important factor to improve the quality of human life. By evaluating the state of the human body, it can further improve human health or stimulate human potential. For example, in medical applications, periodic measurement is used to evaluate disease If you use the method of measuring the physiological state of the patient, you can know the changes in the patient's body at any time, and choose the most favorable treatment and care method; or in sports applications, use the method of measuring the physiological state of the athlete during training or competition, then According to the differences in athletes' loads, the best training methods can be adjusted to maximize their potential. With the advancement of technology, how to provide users with more convenient and accurate physiological state sensing results has become an important issue.
目前,欲测量人体的生理状况,如肌电状态或心电状态等,主要是将与监测器相连的传导媒介至于人体特殊部位上,传导媒介便可由人体感测生理信号,并将测得的生理信号透过图形的方式显示于监测器上,以进一步获知使用者的生理状况。一般而言,目前常见用来感测的传导媒介物为电极贴片或具电极的织物。At present, to measure the physiological status of the human body, such as the state of myoelectricity or electrocardiogram, the main method is to place the conductive medium connected to the monitor on a special part of the human body, and the conductive medium can sense physiological signals from the human body, and the measured Physiological signals are displayed on the monitor in graphic form, so as to further understand the physiological condition of the user. Generally speaking, the conductive media commonly used for sensing are electrode patches or fabrics with electrodes.
详言之,电极贴片主要是透过贴片上的粘性物质,将贴片上的电极使用者的皮肤组织紧密贴合,进而由监测器测量并接收电极所传送的生理信号,以确认使用者目前的生理状况。类似地,具电极的织物亦透过穿戴等固定方式,将织物中的电极与使用者皮肤贴合,并同样由监测器测量接收电极所传送的生理信号,以确认使用者目前的生理状况。In detail, the electrode patch is mainly through the sticky substance on the patch to closely adhere the electrode user's skin tissue on the patch, and then the monitor measures and receives the physiological signal transmitted by the electrode to confirm the use. the current physical condition of the patient. Similarly, the fabric with electrodes is also fixed by wearing or other fixed methods, and the electrodes in the fabric are attached to the user's skin, and the physiological signal transmitted by the receiving electrode is also measured by the monitor to confirm the current physiological condition of the user.
然而,电极贴片的粘性物质将因重复使用而减损其粘性,导致其最后将无法粘合于使用者的皮肤组织,进而影响使用者生理状况的感测结果。另一方面,具电极的织物若仅透过一般穿戴式的接触,其于正常使用的状况下,将会因为接触面不够密合,而容易有电极与使用者之间隙过大的状况,同样地,此种状况亦会导致感测信号微弱。However, the viscous substance of the electrode patch will lose its viscosity due to repeated use, so that it will not be able to adhere to the skin tissue of the user in the end, thereby affecting the sensing result of the user's physiological condition. On the other hand, if the fabric with electrodes is only contacted by ordinary wearables, under normal use conditions, the gap between the electrodes and the user will easily be too large due to the insufficient contact surface. This situation will also lead to a weak sensing signal.
因此,如何解决前述先前技术中所存在的问题,以增加生理信号感测的精确度,此乃业界亟需努力的目标。Therefore, how to solve the problems existing in the aforementioned prior art to increase the accuracy of physiological signal sensing is an urgent goal in the industry.

具体实施方式Detailed ways
以下将透过实施例来解释本发明内容。然而,本发明的实施例并非用以限制本发明需在如实施例所述的任何环境、应用或方式方能实施。因此,关于实施例的说明仅为阐释本发明的目的,而非用以直接限制本发明。需说明者,以下实施例及图示中,与本发明非直接相关的元件已省略而未绘示。The content of the present invention will be explained through the following examples. However, the embodiments of the present invention are not intended to limit the present invention to be implemented in any environment, application or manner as described in the embodiments. Therefore, the descriptions about the embodiments are only for the purpose of illustrating the present invention, rather than directly limiting the present invention. It should be noted that in the following embodiments and illustrations, elements not directly related to the present invention have been omitted and not shown.
首先,请参考图1,其为本发明第一实施例的一穿戴物结构1的剖面图。穿戴物结构1包含一感测层11、一储液层13以及一包覆层15。其中,如图所示,储液层13覆盖于感测层11,包覆层15是覆盖于储液层13,且各层的相对应关系是为储液层13介于感测层11及包覆层15间。而穿戴物结构1中各元件的功能将于下述的内容中详细说明。First, please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a cross-sectional view of a clothing structure 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The wearable structure 1 includes a
具体而言,穿戴物结构1的感测层11是直接与一使用者5产生接触。其中,感测层11具有至少一传感器111,用以感测使用者5所产生的生理信号S1,而该感测层11是由金属、不锈钢纤维、铜纤维、碳纤维或溅镀银等材质以织物的方式编织而成。储液层13是用来储存一导电液体131,用来提高穿戴物结构1的湿度,使得使用者5与至少一传感器111间所具的空隙得以透过导电液体131补足,借以增加至少一传感器111的传导能力,进而增强对使用者5的生理信号S1的感测,俾后续生理信号S1传送至与至少一传感器111通讯连结的一监测器(未绘示)。须特别说明者,导电液体131于第一实施例中可为常见的导电液体,例如自来水等非纯水液体(纯水无法导电),然其并非用以限制导电液体的实施态样。Specifically, the
然当导电液体131储存于储液层13时,其相对于使用者5接触的感测层11的另一侧有流失导电液体131的可能性,因此需要额外设置包覆层15来防止导电液体131的流失。据此,包覆层15可由不透气的防水材质制成,如此一来,当包覆层15覆盖于储液层13时,其将可防止储液层13的导电液体131的流失。However, when the conductive liquid 131 is stored in the
接着,请参考图2A,其为本发明第二实施例的一穿戴物结构2的剖面图。其中,第二实施例的穿戴物结构2与第一实施例的穿戴物结构1大致相同,因此具相同符号的元件及其功效将不再赘述,而第二实施例与第一实施例的差异在于储液测层的不同。Next, please refer to FIG. 2A , which is a cross-sectional view of a
具体而言,第二实施例的穿戴物结构2具有与第一实施例不同的一储液层23。具体而言,储液层23储存一导电液体231,同样地,导电液体231用以提高穿戴物结构2的湿度。另外,储液层23具有多个填充元件233,用以于储液层23中界定多个容置空间A,俾导电液体231的储存。Specifically, the
进一步来说,于第二实施例中,填充元件233为固态柱状物,例如以尼龙、碳纤、聚乙烯(Polyethylene,PE)、聚丙烯(Polypropylene,PP)或聚偏氟乙烯(Polyvinylidene fluoride,PVDF)等材料制成的小尺寸柱状物。而利用将填充元件233规律性排列的方式,可使得填充元件233具支撑感测层21及包覆层25的功效,并同时使穿戴物结构2具可挠性,便于贴合使用者5的任意身体部位。Further, in the second embodiment, the filling
再者,如图所示,填充元件233的设置可于储液层23中界定出多个容置空间A,而当填充元件233彼此的间距相对较小时,导电液体231与填充元件233间的附着力将大于导电液体231本身的内聚力,进而产生毛细现象,使得导电液体231可以依附在多个填充元件233上,俾储液层23对于导电液体231的储存。Furthermore, as shown in the figure, the arrangement of the filling
更详细来说,当欲感测使用者5的使用者的生理信号S1时,可将导电液体231喷洒于穿戴物结构2上,此时导电液体231就会透过前述的毛细现象,被吸入储液层23多个填充元件233所界定的容置空间A,因此,导电液体231将得以被保存于穿戴物结构2中。类似地,或可直接利用使用者5的汗水作为导电液体231,换言之,当使用者5流汗时,汗水将可经由毛细现象被吸入储液层23,并保存于填充元件233所介定的容置空间A中。In more detail, when it is desired to sense the user's physiological signal S1 of the
需另外说明者,填充元件233是以单芯结构完成,然其并非用以限制其实施态样。请参考图2B,第二实施例于其他实施态样中,储液层23的填充元件亦可为具多芯结构的填充元件233’,如图2B所示,各填充元件233’是将多个小尺寸条状物结合扭转构成。透过此多芯结构,将可进一步强化储液层23储存液体的功能。It should be further explained that the filling
接下来,请参考图3,其为本发明第三实施例的穿戴物结构3的剖面图。其中,第三实施例的穿戴物结构3与第二实施例的穿戴物结构2大致相同,因此具相同符号的元件及其功效将不再赘述,而第三实施例与第二实施例的差异在于第三实施例的穿戴物结构3增加了一固定层17。Next, please refer to FIG. 3 , which is a cross-sectional view of a
具体而言,如图所示,固定层17是设置于储液层23以及包覆层15间,其目的在于用以固定填充元件233于储液层23中的位置。须特别强调者,固定层17可以弹性织布制成,然其并非用以限制固定层17的材质。Specifically, as shown in the figure, the fixing
请参考本发明图4,其为本发明第四实施例的穿戴物结构4的剖面图。其中,第四实施例的穿戴物结构4与第一实施例的穿戴物结构1大致相同,因此具相同符号的元件及其功效将不再赘述,而第四实施例与第一实施例的差异在于感测层的不同。Please refer to FIG. 4 of the present invention, which is a cross-sectional view of a
详细来说,于第四实施例中,为能使穿戴物结构4与使用者5的接触更加密合,使传感器得以更精确地测量使用者的生理信号,第四实施例的一感测层19的一至少一传感器191的一感测面1911具多个凸起P1。In detail, in the fourth embodiment, in order to make the contact between the
具体而言,如图4所示,感测层19的至少一传感器191于接触人体的感测面1911上具有多个凸起P1,此种结构于使用时,将可大幅提升使用者5与感测面1911间接触的密合度,如此便更能进一步加强使用者5生理信号S1的感测。须特别说明,于第四实施例中,凸起P1是圆凸状,可使穿戴物结构4接触使用者5时不会令使用者感到不适,然其并非用以限制凸起P1的实施态样。Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4 , at least one
综上所述,本发明的穿戴物结构将可以使穿戴物结构的传感器精确感测使用者的生理信号。如此一来,以往用电极贴片或一般具电极的织物作为感测媒介时所具有的缺点将可轻易克服,使得使用者生理状态的感测更有效率地被完成,更者,本发明的穿戴式结构可用以制作成各种可穿戴物,便于使用者配着于身体需感测的部位。To sum up, the wearable structure of the present invention will enable the sensor of the wearable structure to accurately sense the user's physiological signals. In this way, the shortcomings of using electrode patches or fabrics with electrodes in the past can be easily overcome, so that the sensing of the user's physiological state can be completed more efficiently. What's more, the present invention The wearable structure can be used to make various wearable objects, which are convenient for users to attach to the parts of the body that need to be sensed.
