Body analysis scales

摘要

The scale (1) has measuring elements arranged within or on a side of a contact plate (11). The elements measure a variable of an evaluation electronics, where the variable correlates with a body value. The elements are designed as a capacitor plate and form a capacitor together with a body part i.e. foot sole, of a person, where the body part serves as another capacitor plate. The capacitor is acted upon with alternating current. The electronics determines a dielectric between a conductive layer in the body part and the former plate and calculates the variable from the determined dielectric.
