Conductivity sensing device for diapers

摘要

A conductivity sensing device for diapers comprises a pair of swingably connected jaw members spring biased to closed position. One of the jaws has an electric conducting member with jaws designed to pierce material of the diaper to contact an electrically conducting layer therein. One of the jaws is provided with an electrical conducting area designed to contact the skin of a baby. Means are provided for preventing direct electrical contact between the jaws and the conducting area and means are provided to detect an increase in conductivity between these members.
