Bodily information measurement apparatus

1. A bodily information measurement apparatus that is to be attached by being wrapped around a rod-shaped measurement site, the bodily information measurement apparatus comprising:

a band-shaped belt to be wrapped around the measurement site, the belt extending in a lengthwise direction from a base end portion to a leading end portion;

a main body that is connected to the base end portion of the belt, and on which a pressure detection unit and a fluid supply unit are mounted; and

a fastening portion that is provided on the main body and is for fastening the belt such that the belt forms a loop shape,

wherein the belt is formed by stacking an outer circumferential layer arranged on a side opposite to the measurement site, and a fluid bladder that is arranged on the measurement site side and is for compressing the measurement site by enclosing fluid supplied from the fluid supply unit and swelling, and the fluid bladder extends in the lengthwise direction from the leading end portion to a surface on the measurement site side of the main body and is in communication with the pressure detection unit and the fluid supply unit,

wherein in a state in which the surface on the measurement site side of the main body and the leading end portion overlap, the base end portion and the leading end portion are fastened by the fastening portion, and thereby the bodily information measurement apparatus is attached to the measurement site,

wherein bodily information is acquired by the pressure detection unit detecting pressure in the fluid bladder,

wherein a first main body-side tube element for supplying a fluid for increasing pressure from the fluid supply unit mounted in the main body into the fluid bladder, and a second main body-side tube element for transferring the pressure in the fluid bladder to the pressure detection unit mounted on the main body using the fluid are provided on a surface of the main body that opposes the fluid bladder,

wherein the fluid bladder includes a first bladder-side tube element that fits air-tightly together with the first main body-side tube element in a state of opposing the main body, and a second bladder-side tube element that fits air-tightly together with the second main body-side tube element, and

wherein a portion of the fluid bladder that opposes the main body is removably attached to the main body via a reinforcing plate adhered to the portion.

2. The bodily information measurement apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the outer circumferential layer and the fluid bladder are formed of an elastomer material.

3. The bodily information measurement apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the reinforcing plate includes a through hole having a shape through which all of the first main body-side tube element, the first bladder-side tube element, the second main body-side tube element, and the second bladder-side tube element pass.

4. The bodily information measurement apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein a protruding ring that protrudes in a thickness direction is provided on the surface of the fluid bladder that opposes the main body, at a position along an inner side with respect to an edge portion of the through hole of the reinforcing plate.

5. The bodily information measurement apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein an operation unit for inputting an instruction to measure bodily information is arranged at a site other than a specified portion at which the main body is arranged in the lengthwise direction of the belt, and

wherein an FPC cable that electrically connects the main body and the operation unit is inserted between the fluid bladder and the outer circumferential layer.

6. The bodily information measurement apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein a groove portion for storing the FPC cable is formed in the outer circumferential layer.
