An antenna unit includes: an external body; a display unit which is provided on one side of the external body and displays information; an antenna which is provided on the other side of the external body and is disposed to face the display unit at an interval therebetween; an internal body which accommodates the antenna and is movable with respect to the external body toward a side opposite to the display unit. The external body has a belt connecting section which protrudes toward the side opposite to the display unit. The internal body protrudes from the external body by moving toward the side opposite to the display unit. The internal body protrudes farther from the external body than the belt connecting section from the external body.

Antenna unit and portable electronic apparatus

There is provided a portable electronic apparatus including an apparatus main body that includes electronic components built therein, a fixation belt that is used to attach the apparatus main body to a living body surface, a connector that is provided at an end of the fixation belt in a belt longitudinal direction, and has an engagement protrusion that is detachably stored in an engagement recess formed at the apparatus main body, and a biasing body that is provided in the engagement recess, and biases the engagement protrusion stored in the engagement recess so as to maintain an engagement state between the engagement recess and the engagement protrusion.

Portable electronic apparatus

To improve product lifetime as well as to increase wearing feeling, maintainability and productivity, and to suppress manufacturing costs and expenses of the user. A portable electronic deviceincludes a device bodyarranged inside a garment W and housing an electronic component and a fixing memberA formed separately from the device bodyand arranged outside the garment W, which fixes the device bodyso as to be attached and detached to and from the garment W in a state of sandwiching the garment W between the fixing memberA and the device bogyfrom the other side of the garment W. The fixing memberA is formed so as to be elastically deformed, which is formed in a ring shape surrounding the device body. Gaps are provided on both sides of the device bodyin the radial direction of the fixing memberA between an inner peripheral surface of the fixing memberA and the device body

Portable electronic device

Biological information detection device

A biological information detecting apparatus has an apparatus main body, a pair of biological signal detecting parts provided on the apparatus main body, a fixing part attached to the apparatus main body, holders provided to be slidable along a longitudinal direction of the fixing part, and joining parts configured to releasably join the pair of biological signal detecting parts to the respective holders. Each of the biological signal detecting parts has an electrode adapted to be in contact with a biological surface of a user's body. The fixing part is configured to fix the apparatus main body and the pair of biological signal detecting parts to the user's body.

Biological information detecting apparatus and fixing structure

Provision of a biological information detecting device capable of stably detecting a biological signal in good condition. A device body, a pair of electrode portionsA andB provided in the device body and respectively contacting a biological surface and a band-shaped fixing bandfor covering the pair of electrode portionsA andB and fixing the device body to a body are provided, and a guide portionA which allows relative movement between each of the electrode portionsA/B and the fixing bandin an extending direction of the fixing bandand restricts movement in a width direction orthogonal to the extending direction is arranged between each of the electrode portionsA/B and the fixing band

Biological information detecting device

A biological information detection device has a device main body and a biological signal detection portion formed integrally with the device main body. The biological signal detection portion has at least one electrode for contacting a biological surface of a human body. A fixing portion has an elastic strap and is configured to mount the device main body and the biological signal detection portion to the human body without the device main body and the biological signal detection portion being directly attached to the elastic strap. The fixing portion covers the device main body and the biological signal detection portion with the electrode being disposed in contact with the biological surface of the human body when the device main body and the biological signal detection portion are mounted to the human body.

A biological information detection device has a main body portion, a biological signal detection portion formed integrally with the main body portion, a mounting portion for detachably mounting the main body portion and the biological signal detection portion to a human body, and an engagement portion for detachably mounting the main body portion to the mounting portion. The biological signal detection portion has electrodes configured to be brought into contact with a biological surface of the human body. The engagement portion includes first connecting members protruding from respective opposite sides of the main body portions at positions corresponding to the electrodes, and second connecting members extending from respective end portions of the mounting portion for detachable engagement with the respective first connecting members.

A biological information detection device includes a main body portion, a heartbeat detection portion, formed integrally with the main body portion, which has electrodes that come into contact with a biological surface, and a fixing band, detachably provided to the main body portion, which mounts the main body portion and the heartbeat detection portion to a user. A sealing portion for securing sealing of an electrical connection portion is provided in the periphery of the electrical connection portion that electrically connects the main body portion to the electrodes of the heartbeat detection portion.

A biological information detection device has a device main body and a biological signal detection portion formed integrally with the device main body. The detection portion has at least one electrode for contacting a biological surface of a human body. A mounting portion mounts the main body and the detection portion to a human body without the mounting portion being directly attached to the detection portion. The main body and the detection portion are integrally connected by a mechanical connection portion that mechanically connects the main body and the detection portion to each other, and by an electrical connection portion that electrically connects the main body and the electrode of the detection portion to each other. The mechanical connection portion and the electrical connection portion are positioned relative one another so as not to be arranged alongside a load direction of an external force acting on the mechanical connection portion.

A main body holder has a base wall with a through-hole, a holding portion, and a pivotally attached clip piece. A stopper member is movably disposed within the base wall through-hole for movement between a restricting position and a releasing position. In the restricting position, the stopper member projects from the base wall and is configured to engage and securely hold the main body of a portable apparatus on the holding portion so that the apparatus main body is only partially disposed over the base wall through-hole in a state in which the apparatus main body is fully received by the holding portion. In the releasing position, the stopper member extends into the through-hole and does not project from the base wall so that the apparatus main body is allowed to be slid relative to the holding portion. An urging member urges the clip piece into contact with the holding portion and urges the stopper member to the restricting position.
