<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bioelectrical impedance measuring apparatus which can be easily handled by a user and can provide a sure and highly accurate impedance measured value. <P>SOLUTION: The bioelectrical impedance measuring apparatus includes a plurality of electrodes and a measuring circuitry. The measuring circuitry injects through two electrodes alternating current into the body, measures with two other electrodes on different limbs the generated voltages, and determines the impedance of body segments. Two hand contact bodies are provided, each of which is provided with two electrodes 3 and 4 in such a manner that a user when contacting the hand contact bodies with both hands, comes into contact with two electrodes for each hand. Each hand contact body has a hand seating surface 1 for placement of a hand inner surface thereon, wherein each hand seating surface 1 is provided with an electrically insulating separating wall 2, the separating wall being adapted to project into the space between middle and ring fingers when a hand is placed on the hand seating surface, and in that the electrodes 3 and 4 are provided on both sides of the separating wall. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
