技术领域technical field
本发明涉及一种排泄物装置,尤指一种具尿糖检测功能的排泄物装置。The invention relates to an excrement device, in particular to an excrement device with the function of detecting urine sugar.
背景技术Background technique
近年来糖尿病的情况严重,社会大众需要一种非侵入式的血糖检测方法,在居家为各糖尿病病患即时测量血糖浓度,以减轻糖尿病病患承受侵入式血糖检测的疼痛。In recent years, the situation of diabetes has become serious, and the general public needs a non-invasive blood sugar detection method, which can measure the blood sugar concentration of each diabetic patient at home in real time, so as to relieve the pain of invasive blood sugar detection for diabetic patients.
一般而言,当血糖浓度超过180毫克/分升(mg/dl),一个人的尿液就会出现糖分,这代表着一个人的肾脏无法将体内的糖分全部吸收而将过高浓度的糖分由尿液排出。这种尿液排出的糖分被称为尿糖。Generally speaking, when the blood sugar concentration exceeds 180 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl), sugar will appear in a person's urine, which means that a person's kidneys cannot absorb all the sugar in the body and the excessive concentration of sugar excreted in urine. This sugar excreted in the urine is called urine sugar.
目前以尿糖检测代替血糖检测的方法中,以酵素法为主,且又以葡萄糖氧化酶法的试纸检测最为普遍。然而,试纸检测需要花费30至60秒的时间,故不够满足即时检测的即时性。At present, among the methods that use urine sugar detection instead of blood sugar detection, the enzyme method is the main method, and the glucose oxidase method is the most common. However, the test paper detection takes 30 to 60 seconds, so it is not enough to meet the immediacy of instant detection.
更严重的是,试纸检测的结果是以人眼判读颜色来决定尿糖的浓度,也就是说,不同人的人眼将会因色差而判读不一的结果,使结果不够精确。此外,试纸检测的结果是以半定量的方式显示,即试纸检测的结果是确认尿糖的浓度位在哪一个区间范围,并无法准确地确认尿糖浓度值。What's more serious is that the result of the test paper test is based on the color of the human eye to determine the concentration of urine sugar. That is to say, the human eyes of different people will interpret different results due to color differences, making the results inaccurate. In addition, the results of the test paper test are displayed in a semi-quantitative manner, that is, the result of the test paper test is to confirm which interval the urine sugar concentration is in, and cannot accurately confirm the urine sugar concentration value.
试纸检测的试纸在保存上也存在着麻烦,因保存环境的不一会造成试纸判断尿糖性能品质的不一,使试纸检测的可信度受到质疑。另外,试纸检测尿糖时,采集尿液于杯中对一般大众而言也不是件方便容易的事。There are also troubles in the preservation of the test paper for test paper detection. Due to the different storage environments, the performance and quality of the test paper for judging urine sugar will be different, and the reliability of the test paper test will be questioned. In addition, when testing urine sugar with test strips, collecting urine in a cup is not a convenient and easy task for the general public.

具体实施方式Detailed ways
请参阅图1和图2所示,本发明为一具尿糖检测功能的排泄物装置1,该具尿糖检测功能的排泄物装置1包括一装置本体2,且该装置本体2具有一排泄物承载槽5及一尿液容置凹槽4。如图1和图2所示,本发明该具尿糖检测功能的排泄物装置1的一实施例中,该装置本体2为一座式马桶,且当该装置本体2冲水时,该尿液容置凹槽4和该内侧壁3能受到洗涤。Please refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the present invention is an excrement device 1 with urine sugar detection function, the excrement device 1 with urine sugar detection function includes a
请一并参阅图3和图4所示,该尿液容置凹槽4形成于该装置本体2的一内侧壁3以用于收集一尿液9。一测量模组6设置于该尿液容置凹槽4的一底部7,且该测量模组6具有一内部空间8。该内部空间8中,该测量模组6包括一透光镜10、一轨道20、一发光单元30、一传感器40、一处理器50和一驱动模组60。在本实施例中,该驱动模组60是一步进马达。Please refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 together, the
该透光镜10设置于该内部空间8中,且具有一测量面11和一底部面12,其中该测量面11紧密贴附于该尿液容置凹槽4的该底部7,并且该测量面11与该内侧壁3密合,使该尿液9无法渗入该内部空间8中。The light-transmitting
该轨道20设置于该内部空间8中环绕且面向该透光镜10的该底部面12。该发光单元30设置于该内部空间8中的该轨道20上,且沿该轨道20可移动地向该透光镜10的该底部面12发射一检测光束。该传感器40面向该透光镜10的该底部面12且设置于该内部空间8中,且接收由该底部面12经反射出的该检测光束。The
在本发明一较佳实施例中,该透光镜10的该底部面12为一弧形的表面,且该弧形的表面面向该发光单元30和该传感器40。该较佳实施例中的该轨道20有着与该底部面12同样的弧度,所以沿着该轨道20移动的该检测光束能够保持着垂直入射该弧形的表面。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the
该检测光束入射该透光镜10时因垂直入射该底部面12而不会产生角度上的偏折,这是根据折射定律(Snell’s Law)的结果,而折射定律(Snell’s Law)会在说明书后段加以探讨。该检测光束垂直射入该透光镜10后,于介质转变的地方,即紧密贴附于该尿液容置凹槽4的底部7的该测量面11和该尿液9交界的地方,将会出现折射与反射。该检测光束折射的部分会因为该尿液9为和该透光镜10介质不同而产生,而反射的部分则会因为垂直于该测量面11的向量改变方向而产生。以垂直于该测量面11的一法线为基准,该检测光束入射时会产生一入射角θi,反射时会产生一反射角θr,而折射时会产生一折射角θt。该入射角θi、该反射角θr和该折射角θt三者的关系以及多少的该检测光束会出现折射和多少的该检测光束会出现反射的关系将在说明书后段仔细探讨。When the detection beam is incident on the light-transmitting
该处理器50设置于该内部空间8中且电连接该发光单元30和该传感器40。该驱动模组60设置于该内部空间8中,连接该发光单元30且电连接该处理器50,使该处理器50控制该驱动模组60驱动该发光单元30沿该轨道20移动。The
详细来说,当该处理器50接收到一启动信号时,该处理器50控制该发光单元30发射该检测光束,使该检测光束射向该底部面12,以射入该透光镜10中。该处理器50根据该发光单元30在该轨道20上的一位置,根据该位置得知该发光单元30受到该驱动模组60所移动的量,再推知该发光单元30的该检测光束入射该测量面11的角度。接着,该处理器50根据该检测光束入射该测量面11的角度和该传感器40所测量的一光束强度信号于3秒内即时产生一尿糖浓度数据。本发明之所以能即时分析该尿糖浓度数据,是因为光学的方法能在该检测光束照射该尿液9的一瞬间就从该光束强度信号得知了该尿液9的物理信息以分析该尿糖浓度数据。In detail, when the
请参阅图5所示,本发明该较佳实施例中,该处理器50于该内部空间8中电连接分别设置于该装置本体2上的一输出单元100、一输入单元200和一电力单元300。Please refer to FIG. 5, in this preferred embodiment of the present invention, the
对于该尿糖浓度数据,该处理器50会进一步判断该尿糖浓度数据是否大于一警示值,而当该处理器50判断该尿糖浓度数据大于该警示值时,该处理器50会产生一警示信息,以警示使用者注意身体中的血糖浓度,并于该输出单元100输出该警示信息。在本发明该较佳实施例中,该输出单元100可为一显示器以显示该警示信息或可为一蜂鸣器以发出声音传达该警示信息。For the urine sugar concentration data, the
该输入单元200负责产生该启动信号,而当该输入单元200产生该启动信号时,该处理器50接收该启动信号而启动运作。另外,该电力单元300负责产生电力提供该处理器50。The
在介绍该尿糖检测功能的排泄物装置1如何该尿糖浓度数据之前,在此先介绍本发明的技术背景,即一道光是如何在两不同介质之间行径的。Before introducing the excrement device 1 with the urine sugar detection function and how to obtain the urine sugar concentration data, the technical background of the present invention is introduced here, that is, how a light travels between two different media.
请参阅图6所示,设该介质一与该介质二接触的表面为一平面,根据折射定律(Snell’s Law),光由一介值进入另一介质时,一入射光的该入射角θi与该折射角θt和一介质一的一第一折射率n1与一介质二的一第二折射率n2的关系如下:Please refer to Fig. 6, assuming that the surface of the first medium contacting the second medium is a plane, according to the law of refraction (Snell's Law), when light enters another medium from an intermediate value, the incident angle θ i of an incident light and The relationship between the angle of refraction θ t and a first refractive index n 1 of a medium 1 and a second refractive index n 2 of a
n1×sin(θi)=n2×sin(θt)n 1 ×sin(θ i )=n 2 ×sin(θ t )
其中,当n1>n2且当入射角θi为一临界角(critical angle)θcri时:Among them, when n 1 >n 2 and when the incident angle θ i is a critical angle (critical angle) θ cri :
该折射角θt必须呈90度以给出sin(θt)=1的答案,所以当入射光在该临界角θcri时,光折射的角度将会呈90度的在该介质一与该介质二的该表面之间行径。当光出现反射时,该入射角θi和该反射角θr在一般情况下必须相等,而当入射光在该临界角θcri时为特殊的情况。The refraction angle θ t must be 90 degrees to give the answer of sin(θ t ) = 1, so when the incident light is at the critical angle θ cri , the angle of light refraction will be 90 degrees between the medium one and the The surface of medium two travels between them. When light is reflected, the incident angle θ i and the reflection angle θ r must be equal in general, and it is a special case when the incident light is at the critical angle θ cri .
进一步来说,该检测光束的折射量和反射量可以根据菲涅耳方程式(Fresnelequations)来探讨。根据菲涅耳方程式(Fresnel equations),反射比R和透射比T为百分比,可以表示该检测光束的折射量和该检测光束的反射量,且反射比R加上透射比T会等于1。入射光的偏振态可以被分为S偏振和P偏振,其中和该平面相互垂直的偏振态为S偏振态,而和该平面相互平行的偏振态为P偏振态。该入射光在没有偏振化的状态下为一随机比例的S偏振光和P偏振光所组成,而根据菲涅耳方程式,S偏振光和P偏振光的反射比R和透射比T可被详细写为:Further, the amount of refraction and reflection of the detection beam can be discussed according to Fresnel equations. According to Fresnel equations, the reflectance R and the transmittance T are percentages, which can represent the refraction amount of the detection beam and the reflection amount of the detection beam, and the reflectance R plus the transmittance T will be equal to 1. The polarization state of the incident light can be divided into S polarization and P polarization, wherein the polarization state perpendicular to the plane is the S polarization state, and the polarization state parallel to the plane is the P polarization state. The incident light is composed of a random ratio of S-polarized light and P-polarized light in the state of no polarization, and according to the Fresnel equation, the reflectance R and transmittance T of S-polarized light and P-polarized light can be calculated in detail written as:
TS=1-RS T S =1-R S
TP=1-RP T P =1-R P
当θt=π/2时,cos(θt=π/2)=0,所以菲涅耳方程式可以被简化为:When θ t = π/2, cos(θ t = π/2) = 0, so the Fresnel equation can be simplified as:
TS=1-RS=1-1=0T S =1-R S =1-1=0
TP=1-RP=1-1=0T P =1-R P =1-1=0
所以不管该入射光为哪一种偏振态,也不管该入射光为多少S偏振光和P偏振光的比例组成,S偏振光和P偏振光所得到的结果一致,也就是说在θi=θcri和θt=π/2时,不但该入射光会沿着该介质一与该介质二的该平面间行径,且数学上被已经被视为全内反射(total internal reflection),因为RS和RP都为1。Therefore, no matter which polarization state the incident light is in, and no matter how many ratios of S-polarized light and P-polarized light the incident light is composed of, the results obtained for S-polarized light and P-polarized light are consistent, that is to say, at θ i = When θ cri and θ t = π/2, not only the incident light will travel along the plane between the medium 1 and the
当θi<θcri时,该入射光也会持续全内反射,即所有的光会被反射,RS和RP维持1,TS和TP维持0,而该反射角θr就如同一般情况时将相等于该入射角θi。When θ i <θ cri , the incident light will continue to be totally internally reflected, that is, all the light will be reflected, R S and R P remain 1, T S and T P maintain 0, and the reflection angle θ r is as In general, it will be equal to the incident angle θ i .
当θi=θcri时,该入射光会沿着该介质一与该介质二的该平面间行径,而反射的光不会由该反射角θr的方向反射,这是因为当θt=π/2时,该入射角θi在数学上也可被视为θi=π/2,即一平行于该平面的光,使cos(θi=π/2)=0,而所以得到相同的RS和RP结果:When θ i =θ cri , the incident light will travel along the plane between the first medium and the second medium, and the reflected light will not be reflected in the direction of the reflection angle θ r , because when θ t = When π/2, the incident angle θ i can also be regarded as θ i = π/2 in mathematics, that is, a light parallel to the plane makes cos(θ i = π/2) = 0, and thus we get Same RS and R P results:
换个角度来说,因为光沿着该介质一与该介质二的该平面间行径严格来说并没有跨越到该平面,所以并没有出现一般反射时所出现的反射现象,而所以θi=θcri≠θr,为特殊的情况。To put it another way, because the light travels along the plane between the medium 1 and the
在本发明中,图6所论述的该平面就是该测量面11,该入射光就是该检测光束,而该第一折射率n1对应的是该透光镜10的折射率,且该第二折射率n2对应的是该尿液9的折射率。其中,该透光镜10的折射率为已知的值,而该尿液9的折射率为要测量的值。In the present invention, the plane discussed in FIG. 6 is the
请参阅图4、图7和图8所示,综合以上所述,可知本发明该较佳实施例的该传感器40在传感该检测光束时,会看到以下情形:Referring to Fig. 4, Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, based on the above, it can be known that the
如图4所示,当该入射角θi>该临界角θcri时,少部分的该检测光束会反射到该传感器40中;As shown in FIG. 4, when the incident angle θi >the critical angle θcri , a small part of the detection beam will be reflected into the
如图7所示,当该入射角θi=该临界角θcri时,全部的该检测光束会因为出现全内反射而行径于该平面之间,而因为该传感器40不介于该平面之间,所以该检测光束大多无法反射至该传感器40中,于是该传感器40测量到的该光束强度信号会减弱;As shown in FIG. 7, when the incident angle θi =the critical angle θcri , all the detection light beams will travel between the planes due to total internal reflection, and because the
如图8所示,当该入射角θi<该临界角θcri时,全部的该检测光束会因为出现全内反射而反射到该传感器40中,于是该传感器40测量到的该光束强度信号会增强。As shown in FIG. 8, when the incident angle θi <the critical angle θcri , all the detection beams will be reflected into the
由此可知,当该入射角θi等于該临界角θcri时,该传感器40传感到的该光束强度信号会小于其他该入射角θi角度的该光束强度信号。而反过来说,当该传感器40随着该入射角θi的改变而传感到该光束强度信号为一最低值时,出现该最低值的角度即为对应的该临界角θcri。根据折射定律,该临界角θcri即:It can be seen that, when the incident angle θ i is equal to the critical angle θ cri , the beam intensity signal sensed by the
n1×sin(θcri)=n2×1n 1 ×sin(θ cri )=n 2 ×1
本发明可以借由该入射角θi的变化,对应该传感器40所测量到的该光束强度信号变化,从该传感器40传感到的该光束强度信号找出对应的该临界角θcri,并从该临界角θcri计算出该尿液9的折射率,再从该尿液9的折射率找到对应该尿液9中的一尿糖浓度,最终使该处理器50产生该尿糖浓度数据。The present invention can use the change of the incident angle θi to correspond to the change of the beam intensity signal measured by the
本发明设有可调整的一阈值,即当该处理器50判断该光束强度信号小于该阈值时,该处理器50就判定该发光单元30在该轨道20上移动的位置和该检测光束入射该测量面11的角度,为该检测光束全内反射的发生位置,而判定当下的该入射角θi为该临界角θcri。The present invention is provided with an adjustable threshold, that is, when the
此外,该处理器50在判断该光束强度信号小于该阈值时,该处理器50更进一步判断该光束强度信号是否为一相对低值。也就是说,在该处理器50在判断该光束强度信号小于该阈值后,该处理器50持续控制该传感器40继续测量和该处理器50持续控制该轨道20上的该发光单元30继续移动,直到该传感器40测量的该光束强度信号从减弱变为增强。当该光束强度信号从减弱变为增强时,该光束强度信号就会出现该相对低值,而该相对低值能够更精确的使该处理器50加以判断该发光单元30在该轨道20上移动时出现该临界角θcri的位置。该光束强度信号会从减弱变为增强,是因为该光束强度信号会在该检测光束刚出现全内反射时减弱,而该光束强度信号会在该检测光束超过该临界角θcri后且持续全内反射时增强,详细请参考前述综合图4、图7和图8所做的解释。In addition, when the
当该处理器50判断该光束强度信号为该相对低值后,该处理器50即结束该发光单元30和该传感器40的测量工作,因为该处理器50已经有足够的信息计算该临界角θcri的角度。经过判断该光束强度信号小于该阈值和经过判断该光束强度信号为该相对低值后,该处理器50能确定该临界角θcri的角度,并该处理器50再进一步计算尿糖浓度。After the
请参阅图9所示,实验数据的图中可看出该尿液9中添加的葡萄糖含量跟发光单元移动的程度呈线性的关系,换句话说,该尿糖浓度和跟该发光单元30移动的程度呈线性的关系。该发光单元30移动的程度和该入射角θi的变化量之间,以及和该驱动模组60所移动的量之间,都有线性的关系。因此,此图也可以说明,该尿糖浓度和该入射角θi的变化量有线性的关系。也因为有此线性的关系,本发明该具尿糖检测功能的排泄物装置1才能够借由光学的方式测量该尿糖浓度,即上述借由该入射角θi的变化量,对应该传感器40的该光束强度信号找出对应的该临界角θcri,并从该临界角θcri计算出该尿液9的折射率,再从该尿液9的折射率线性的对应到该尿糖浓度,最终使该处理器50产生该尿糖浓度数据。在本实施例中,该发光单元30移动的程度(a.u.)的单位例如为毫米(mm)、弧度(rad)、角度(°),但不以此为限。此外,该发光单元30移动的程度和该入射角θi的变化量还是维持着线性的关系。Please refer to FIG. 9 , it can be seen from the graph of the experimental data that the glucose content added in the
图9中可看出,该尿糖浓度180毫克/分升(mg/dl)的位置对应到发光单元移动的程度5至5.25a.u.的位置,而当血糖浓度超过180mg/dl时,一个人的尿液就会出现糖分,所以本发明的适用范围达到了所设计的尿糖检测范围,能在一个人的尿液一出现糖分就检测到该尿液9的该尿糖浓度。并且,本发明更能区别该尿糖浓度50mg/dl和该尿糖浓度100mg/dl的尿糖浓度差异,比一般习知的尿糖试纸在尿糖测量上更为精确。As can be seen in Fig. 9, the position of the urine sugar concentration of 180 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) corresponds to the position of the degree of movement of the light emitting unit from 5 to 5.25 a.u. Sugar will appear in urine, so the scope of application of the present invention has reached the designed urine sugar detection range, and the urine sugar concentration of the
本发明的该尿液容置凹槽4受到洗涤时,残留在该尿液容置凹槽4中的水分为一平均的定量,而该处理器50在计算该尿糖浓度时能够考虑并一并计算残留水分该平均的定量以校准测量该尿糖浓度的结果,使该尿糖浓度的测量上不会因为受到该检测环境的重置而受到影响。When the
