A simple body weighing machine.

چکیده
It is customary to weigh the organs removed at necropsy and these measurements provide objective criteria of atrophy, hypertrophy, and disease. However, surprisingly few mortuaries have facilities for weighing whole bodies. When this hospital opened in 1970 attempts to obtain a body weighing machine within the limits of the budget were unsuccessful and a simple modification of the body elevating machine was devised which enabled each body to be quickly and easily weighed.

A hand grip dynograph and weighing machine : twin application of a simple principle.
A hand grip dynograph and weighing machine have been developed by applying the relationship 'force/area = pressure'. Force is applied to a relatively constant area provided by the partially inflated bladder taken from the compression cuff of a sphygmomanometer. Under such circumstances, the rise in pressure is proportional to the force applied, and after calibration, the pressure reading can be...
متن کاملAn inexpensive method of determining body composition by underwater weighing.
A simple inexpensive densiometric method of determining body composition was compared to a more sophisticated one. Body density (Db), lean body mass (LBM), and relative fat content (%fat) were determined for 16 volunteers, 9 men and 7 women using a simple T-bar apparatus suspended in a swimming pool, and an electronic apparatus in conjunction with a metal tank. Residual volumes (RV) used in the...

متن کاملSpeed Control of A Three Phase Current Forced Synchronous Machine Drive Based on A Simple Method
In this paper, a new method is proposed for the speed control of a three-phase current forced synchronous machine drive. This metohd is based on the use of an approximate constant commutation safety margin angle in the output thyristor bridge of the drive system as well as on the compenastion of stator magnetization reaction. The commutation process in the output converter of the machine driv...
