Body weight scale comprising an apparatus for measuring body composition

摘要

The invention concerns an apparatus for measuring a subject's body composition comprising a first electronic module ( 6 ) for measuring a bioelectric impedance and at least an electric power source ( 10 ) for generating a variable electric signal ( 11 ) which passes through the body or part of the body of the subject when the latter is connected to the measuring apparatus ( 2 ). The invention is characterized in that said power source is a voltage generator ( 10 ) designed to supply a rectangular voltage signal ( 11 ).
