Wearable device
Abstract
The present disclosure relates generally to a wearable device, and more specifically to a wearable device for detecting biological events, monitoring health condition of an individual, and for providing automatic alerts and analytics reporting. An exemplary wearable device for monitoring health condition of an individual comprises a puck component attachable to the individual’s clothing, wherein the puck component comprises a circuit of a moisture sensor; a strip component configured to be placed within the individual’s clothing, wherein a proximal end portion of the strip comprises a pair of conductive pads, and wherein the pair of conductive pads is configured to interface with the circuit of the moisture sensor while the proximal end portion of the strip is enclosed within the puck via a coupling mechanism.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 - 20 . (canceled)
21 . A wearable device for monitoring health condition of an individual, comprising:
a puck component configured to be couple-able to an article of clothing worn by the individual; a strip component comprising a pair of conductive pads, wherein the strip component is configured to at least partially overlap with an anus of the individual, and wherein the strip component is couple-able to the puck component; a top sheet placed over at least a portion of the strip component, wherein the top sheet comprises a hole for exposing the pair of conductive pads; and a spacer comprising a ring portion placed over the top sheet, wherein the ring portion comprises an opening for exposing the pair of conductive pads such that the spacer creates a gap between skin of the individual and the pair of conductive pads when the puck component is coupled to the article of clothing worn by the individual.
22 . The wearable device of claim 21 , wherein the strip component comprises a flexible circuit.
23 . The wearable device of claim 21 , wherein a diameter of the hole is in a range of 4 mm to 5 mm.
24 . The wearable device of claim 21 , wherein a height of the spacer is in a range of 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm.
25 . The wearable device of claim 21 , wherein the spacer is injection molded.
26 . The wearable device of claim 21 , wherein the spacer comprises two supports that protrude from a bottom surface of the ring portion.
27 . The wearable device of claim 26 , wherein each support forms a groove with the bottom surface of the ring portion, the groove configured to hold the sheet and the strip component.
28 . The wearable device of claim 26 , wherein the two supports are diametrically opposed.
29 . The wearable device of claim 21 , wherein the spacer is configured to prevent the skin of the individual from contacting the pair of conductive pads while permitting stool to contact the pair of conductive pads.
30 . The wearable device of claim 21 , further comprising a bottom sheet placed under the strip component, opposite the top sheet,
wherein the bottom sheet is configured to be secured to an interior surface of an underwear of the individual.
31 . The wearable device of claim 21 , wherein the top sheet comprises a strip-like shape.
32 . The wearable device of claim 21 , wherein a perimeter of the spacer is contiguous with the hole of the top sheet, such that the top sheet extends beyond the perimeter of the spacer.
33 . A wearable device for monitoring a health condition of an individual, comprising:
a puck component configured to be couple-able to an article of clothing worn by the individual; a strip component comprising a pair of conductive pads, wherein the strip component is configured to at least partially overlap with an anus of the individual, and wherein the strip component is couple-able to the puck component; a top sheet placed over at least a portion of the strip component, wherein the top sheet comprises a hole for exposing the pair of conductive pads; and a spacer comprising a ring comprising an opening, wherein the opening is aligned with the hole for exposing the pair of conductive pads, and wherein a bottom surface of the ring portion is secured to the top sheet to create spacing between skin of the individual and the pair of conductive pads when the puck component is coupled to the article of clothing worn by the individual.
34 . The wearable device of claim 33 , wherein the spacer is configured to prevent skin of the individual from contacting the pair of conductive pads while permitting stool to contact the pair of conductive pads.
35 . The wearable device of claim 33 , wherein the pair of conductive pads are located at a distal portion of the strip.
36 . The wearable device of claim 33 , wherein the strip comprises a flexible circuit.
37 . The wearable device of claim 33 , wherein a diameter of the hole is in a range of 4 mm to 5 mm.
38 . The wearable device of claim 33 , wherein a height of the spacer is in a range of 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm.
39 . The wearable device of claim 33 , wherein the spacer is injection molded.
40 . The wearable device of claim 33 , further comprising a bottom sheet placed under the strip component, opposite the top sheet,
wherein the bottom sheet is configured to be secured to an interior surface of an underwear of the individual.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
