Abstract
Provided is a pulse wave measuring apparatus preventing breakage of a pressure sensing surface in the non-measurement stage. The pulse wave measuring apparatus includes: a housing and a pressure sensing section, wherein an opening is formed at the bottom surface of the housing, the pressure sensing section is mounted inside of the housing, the pressure sensing section moves freely upwardly and downwardly through the opening between a measuring position at which a pressure sensing surface is pressed to a human body to measure a pulse wave and a waiting position at which the pressure sensing sectionis accommodated inside of the housing to be on standby and the housing has a slide cover protecting the pressure sensing surface in a state where the pressure sensing section is located at the waiting position.
