Description

System zur Bestimmung der optimalen Sonnenbestrahlung von PersonenSystem for determining the optimal sun exposure of people
Die Erfindung betrifft ein System zur Bestimmung der optimalen Sonnenbestrahlung von Personen gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1. Aufgrund neuerer Erkenntnisse der Medizin ist man sich allgemein der Gefahren bewusst geworden, die durch eine übermäßige Sonnenbestrahlung bedingt sind. Andererseits besteht jedoch der weitverbreitete Wunsch nach einer Bräunung des Körpers, die als kosmetisch vorteilhaft empfunden wird.The invention relates to a system for determining the optimal sun exposure of people according to the preamble of claim 1. On the basis of recent findings in medicine, people have become generally aware of the dangers which are caused by excessive sun exposure. On the other hand, however, there is a widespread desire for tanning of the body, which is perceived as being cosmetically advantageous.
Um den Konflikt dieser einander widersprechenden Ziele lösen zu können, ist es erforderlich, die Exposition der jeweiligen Person so zu optimieren, dass einerseits keine gefährliche Strahlendosis aufgenommen wird und andererseits die gewünschte Bräunungswirkung erzielt wird.In order to be able to resolve the conflict between these contradicting goals, it is necessary to optimize the exposure of the respective person so that on the one hand no dangerous radiation dose is absorbed and on the other hand the desired tanning effect is achieved.
Aus der US 4,428,050 A ist ein Messgerät bekannt, das aufgrund diverser Eingaben der Bedienungsperson und Messungen der Strahlungsintensität Berechnungen über die mögliche Bestrahlung durchführt. Um diese Berechnungen zu ermöglichen, müssen Angaben über den Hauttyp, die bereits erreichte Bräunung, den Sonnenschutzfaktor des verwendeten Sonnenschutzmittels und dgl. eingegeben werden. Durch mögliche Fehler bei der Eingabe kann es zu Fehlberechnungen kommen, die zu Hautschäden durch übermäßige Bestrahlung führen können.From US 4,428,050 A a measuring device is known which, based on various inputs by the operator and measurements of the radiation intensity, carries out calculations about the possible radiation. In order to enable these calculations, information about the skin type, the tan already achieved, the sun protection factor of the sun protection agent used and the like must be entered. Possible errors in the input can lead to incorrect calculations, which can lead to skin damage due to excessive radiation.
Die US 5,612,542 und die US 4,863,282 betreffen Messgeräte zur Ermittlung der maximal zulässigen Bestrahlungsdauer von Personen zur Vermeidung von Hautschäden. Dabei wird die EinStrahlungsintensität in einem Messvorgang bestimmt, und danach wird auf der Basis dieses Messwertes und verschiedener Eingaben des Anwenders entweder die maximal zulässige Bestrahlungsdauer bestimmt oder für eine gewünschte Bestrahlungsdauer der minimal erforderliche Sonnenschutzfaktor berechnet. Nachteilig ist dabei, dass es für den Anwender erforderlich ist, selbst die tatsächliche Bestrahlungsdauer zu überwachen. Außerdem besteht auch hier eine Fehlerquelle darin, dass der Benutzer den Sonnenschutzfaktor des Sonnenschutzmittels händisch eingeben muss, um die maximale Bestrahlungsdauer zu ermitteln. Darüber hinaus ist die Verwendung einer einzigen Messung der Strahlungsintensität für die Gesamtbelastung nicht repräsentativ, da sich aufgrund wechselnder Bewölkung oder dgl. die Strahlungsintensität kurzfristig relativ stark verändern kann. Daher ist die Verwendung solcher Messgeräte nicht nur wenig benutzerfreundlich sondern auch ungenau. Weiters sind aus der AT 400 635 B und der GB 2 236 182 A Strahlungsdosimeter bekannt, bei denen die Strahlungsmesswerte laufend aufintegriert werden. Dies verringert zwar die Messfehler, doch besteht weiterhin der Nachteil, dass der Anwender eine Vielzahl von Eingaben händisch durchführen muss, so dass die Benutzung aufwendig und fehleranfällig ist. Außerdem sind die beschriebenen Geräte als eigenständige Messgeräte ausgebildet, so dass die Handhabung gegenüber Vorrichtungen benachteiligt ist, die mit einem Behälter für Sonnenschutzmittel verbunden sind.US Pat. No. 5,612,542 and US Pat. No. 4,863,282 relate to measuring devices for determining the maximum permissible irradiation time for people in order to avoid skin damage. The radiation intensity is determined in one measurement process, and then, based on this measurement value and various inputs by the user, either the maximum permissible radiation duration is determined or the minimum required sun protection factor is calculated for a desired radiation duration. The disadvantage here is that it is necessary for the user to monitor the actual radiation duration himself. In addition, there is also a source of error here that the user has to manually enter the sun protection factor of the sun protection agent in order to determine the maximum irradiation time. In addition, the use of a single measurement of the radiation intensity is not representative of the total load, since the radiation intensity can change relatively rapidly in the short term due to changing cloudiness or the like. Therefore, the use of such measuring devices is not only not very user-friendly but also imprecise. Furthermore, radiation dosimeters are known from AT 400 635 B and GB 2 236 182 A, in which the radiation measurement values are continuously integrated.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, diese Nachteile zu vermeiden und ein System der oben beschriebenen Art so weiterzubilden, dass eine möglichst einfache Bedienung ermöglicht wird, die Fehler bei der Anwendung möglichst ausschließt. Dabei soll eine möglichst große Messgenauigkeit erreicht werden.The object of the present invention is to avoid these disadvantages and to develop a system of the type described above in such a way that the simplest possible operation is made possible, which excludes errors in use as far as possible. The greatest possible measurement accuracy should be achieved.
Erfindungsgemäß ist das Messgerät dazu ausgebildet, die Bestrahlungsintensitat laufend zu erfassen und die jeweils verbleibende Bestrahlungsdauer anzuzeigen, die auf der Basis des Sonnenschutzfaktors des Sonnenschutzmittels berechnet ist, das in dem Behälter enthalten ist.According to the invention, the measuring device is designed to continuously record the radiation intensity and to display the respectively remaining radiation duration, which is calculated on the basis of the sun protection factor of the sun protection agent contained in the container.
Wesentlich an der Erfindung ist, dass die erforderlichen Eingaben des Anwenders minimiert werden, da das Messgerät auf den jeweiligen Sonnenschutzfaktor abgestimmt ist, das in dem Behälter enthalten ist. Das Messgerät ist anfänglich auf einen durchschnittlichen Hauttyp eingestellt, kann jedoch vom Anwender an den tatsächlichen Hauttyp angepasst werden. Dadurch ist eine wesentliche Vereinfachung der Anwendung gegeben. Der Anwender kann zu jeder Zeit einen Schätzwert für die verbleibende Restbestrahlungsdauer ablesen. Diese wird aufgrund eines Schätzwertes für die zu erwartende Bestrahlungsintensitat ermittelt und laufend korrigiert. Wenn beispielsweise anfänglich eine hohe Strahlungsintensität vorliegt, kann sich als Restbestrahlungsdauer ein Wert von einer Stunde ergeben. Aufgrund einer nachhaltigen Eintrübung im Verlauf dieser Zeitspanne kann die zulässige Restbestrahlungsdauer auf zwei oder mehr Stunden ansteigen, da das Messgerät nunmehr von einer geringeren zu erwartenden Strahlungsintensität ausgeht. Dies ist für den Anwender auch intuitiv einsichtig und fördert das Vertrauen in das Gerät.It is essential to the invention that the necessary inputs by the user are minimized, since the measuring device is matched to the respective sun protection factor that is contained in the container. The meter is initially set to an average skin type, but the user can adjust it to the actual skin type. This considerably simplifies the application. The user can read off an estimate of the remaining exposure time at any time. This is determined on the basis of an estimated value for the radiation intensity to be expected and is continuously corrected. If, for example, there is initially a high radiation intensity, a value of one hour can result as the remaining radiation duration. Due to a sustained clouding over the course of this period, the permissible residual radiation duration can increase to two or more hours, since the measuring device now assumes a lower radiation intensity to be expected. This is also intuitively understandable for the user and promotes trust in the device.
Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass der Sensor dazu ausgebildet ist, die Strahlungsintensität in mindestens drei Wellenlängenbereichen des Ultraviolettlichts zu bestimmen. Auf diese Weise ist eine besonders genaue Bestimmung der wirksamen Strahlungsintensität möglich. Besonders günstig ist es dabei, wenn der Sensor sowohl im Bereich der UV-A als auch der UV-B als auch der UV-C Strahlung mindestens einen Messwert gewinnt. Als UV-A Strahlen werden üblicherweise die längerwelligen Anteile des Ultraviolettspektrums bezeichnet. Der Wellenlängenbereich von UV-A reicht von 320 nm bis 380 nm. Besonders wichtig für die Beeinflussung der menschlichen Haut sind die kürzerwelligen UV-B Strahlen in einem Wellenlängenbereich von 290 nm bis 320 nm, da diese energiereicher sind. Aber auch die Messung der UV-C Strahlen in einem Bereich von 200 nm bis 290 nm ist wichtig, da diese Strahlen aufgrund ihrer Härte extrem gefährlich sind. Unter normalen Umgebungsbedingungen wird der UV-C Anteil von der Atmosphäre fast vollständig abgeschirmt, aber in großer Höhe oder in Solarien können unter Umständen auch in diesem Bereich Strahlungsanteile nachgewiesen werden.It is preferably provided that the sensor is designed to determine the radiation intensity in at least three wavelength ranges of the ultraviolet light. In this way, a particularly precise determination of the effective radiation intensity is possible. It is particularly advantageous if the sensor obtains at least one measured value both in the UV-A and UV-B and UV-C radiation ranges. The longer-wave components of the ultraviolet spectrum are usually referred to as UV-A rays. The wavelength range of UV-A ranges from 320 nm to 380 nm. The shorter-wave UV-B rays in a wavelength range from 290 nm to 320 nm are particularly important for influencing human skin, since they are more energy-intensive. The measurement of UV-C rays in a range from 200 nm to 290 nm is also important, because these rays are extremely dangerous due to their hardness. Under normal ambient conditions, the UV-C component is almost completely shielded from the atmosphere, but at high altitudes or in solariums, radiation components can also be detected in this area.
In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsvariante der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass das Messgerät baulich in den Behälter integriert ist. Durch diese Maßnahme wird ein weiterer Vorteil erreicht, da auf diese Weise auch die Verfügbarkeit des Messgeräts sichergestellt ist. Gegebenenfalls kann dabei das Messgerät auch abnehmbar ausgebildet sein.In a particularly preferred embodiment variant of the invention it is provided that the measuring device is structurally integrated in the container. A further advantage is achieved by this measure, since the availability of the measuring device is also ensured in this way. If necessary, the measuring device can also be designed to be removable.
Eine besonders günstige Lösung ist in diesem Zusammenhang dann gegeben, wenn das Messgerät in einen Verschluss des Behälters integriert ist. Da der Behälter ohne Messgerät praktisch nicht verwendbar ist, kann eine besondere Sicherheit in der Anwendung erreicht werden.A particularly favorable solution is given in this context if the measuring device is integrated in a closure of the container. Since the container is practically unusable without a measuring device, special safety in use can be achieved.
Eine exakte Messung ist dadurch möglich, dass das Messgerät auf den jeweiligen Hauttyp einstellbar ist. Ein besonderer Bedienungskomfort wird dadurch erreicht, dass das Messgerät weiters einen Speicher für den Hauttyp des Anwenders aufweist. Solange das Messgerät dabei vom gleichen Anwender verwendet wird ist keinerlei händische Eingabe erforderlich, was eine bedeutende Vereinfachung und Erhöhung der Sicherheit bewirkt.An exact measurement is possible because the measuring device can be adjusted to the respective skin type. A particular ease of use is achieved in that the measuring device also has a memory for the skin type of the user. As long as the measuring device is used by the same user, no manual input is required, which significantly simplifies and increases safety.
Eine zuverlässige Vermeidung überhöhter Strahlungsdosen kann ferner dadurch verhindert werden, dass das Messgerät eine Warneinrichtung aufweist, die bei Erreichen der maximal zulässigen Bestrahlungsdauer ein Warnsignal abgibt.Reliable avoidance of excessive radiation doses can also be prevented by the measuring device having a warning device which emits a warning signal when the maximum permissible radiation duration is reached.
In der Folge wird die vorliegende Erfindung anhand des in den Figuren dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. Es zeigen :The present invention is explained in more detail below on the basis of the exemplary embodiment illustrated in the figures. Show it :

The system according to the invention consists of a bottle 1 which contains a sunscreen and which has a closure cap 2 into which a measuring device 2a is integrated.
In der Fig. 2 ist die Verschlusskappe 2 von oben dargestellt. Die Verschlusskappe 2 trägt einen Sensor 3, der die Einstrahlung von Ultraviolettlicht erfasst und gleichzeitig zur Stromversorgung des Messgeräts 2a dient. Über einen Schieberegler 4 kann der Hauttyp des Anwenders eingestellt werden. Aus dem Signal des Sensors 3 und der Stellung des Schiebereglers 4 wird die höchstzulässige Bestrahlungsdauer errechnet und auf einem Display 5 angezeigt. Da der Sensor drei Signale liefert, die bei Wellenlängen von 350 nm, 310 nm und 260 nm gewonnen werden, ist eine genaue Berechnung möglich, da aus der Literatur Grenzwerte für die Exposition bekannt sind.2, the closure cap 2 is shown from above. The closure cap 2 carries a sensor 3, which detects the irradiation of ultraviolet light and at the same time serves to supply power to the measuring device 2a. The skin type of the user can be set via a slider 4. The maximum permissible irradiation time is calculated from the signal from the sensor 3 and the position of the slider 4 and shown on a display 5. Since the sensor supplies three signals, which are obtained at wavelengths of 350 nm, 310 nm and 260 nm, an exact calculation is possible, since exposure limits are known from the literature.
Das Messgerät ist auf den Sonnenschutzfaktor des in der Flasche 1 befindlichen Sonnenschutzmittels abgestimmt, so dass die Gefahr von Fehlbedienungen minimiert ist.The measuring device is matched to the sun protection factor of the sun protection agent in bottle 1, so that the risk of incorrect operation is minimized.
Zusätzlich zu der beschriebenen Funktion ist es möglich, die Einstrahlung laufend zu erfassen und die jeweilige Restbestrahlungsdauer anzuzeigen. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass auch eine schwankende Bestrahlungsintensitat berücksichtigt werden kann.In addition to the function described, it is possible to continuously record the irradiation and to display the respective remaining irradiation time. This has the advantage that a fluctuating radiation intensity can also be taken into account.
Die vorliegende Erfindung ermöglicht es, mit einfachen Mitteln eine sichere Berechnung der zulässigen Bestrahlungsdauer durchzuführen, was eine ungefährliche Bräunung ermöglicht. The present invention makes it possible to carry out a reliable calculation of the permissible irradiation duration using simple means, which enables harmless tanning.
