Equipment to implement the test of functional assessment '' hand force ''

摘要

The present invention relates to a device used in the test of functional assessment '' hand force ''. It is one of physical tests tu00cdpicos made specific groups of population with the potential loss of functional capacity, especially targeted to the gerontes.The system is constituu00cddo by a chair (1), an essential links to press with the hand (2) which are installed two micro cell load (3, 4) for measuring the force exerted by hand during the clamping action, a letter eletru00d3nica developed (5) for conditioning the signal generated The load cells, a letter Arduino uno (6) and a personal computer (7).The letter eletru00d3nica developed is attached physically to the Arduino uno, and link this to the computer is performed via USB port. This system is applicable, for example, in medicine, physics and reabilitau00c7u00c3o, geriatrics, and where it is planned to assess the physical fitness of specific groups of the population.
