Abstract: A bio-signal skin contact apparatus comprises a first layer, a second layer with adhesive for a skin contact, and a middle layer that is elastic and located between and in contact with the first layer and the second layer. Each of one or more hole structures comprise a first hole through the first layer, a second hole through the second layer and a third hole through the middle layer. The first, second and third holes of a single hole structure of the at least one hole structure are overlapping. A connector structure is partly within the hole, the connector structure comprising an extension, which extends above the level of the first layer, and a cavity for a sensor within the connector structure. The extension performs a bayonet connection with a counter-connector. The connector structure comprises an aperture through the extension in a level of the middle layer. A compartment is filled with flowable material within the hole structure, the flowable material being in contact with and covered by the first layer. The flowable material flows through the aperture into the cavity for the flowable material to become in contact with both skin and the sensor in response to tightening action of the bayonet connection that causes compression to the bio-signal skin contact apparatus at the connector structure and deformation of the compartment based on elasticity of the middle layer for causing pressure to the flowable material.

Abstract: A bio-signal measurement apparatus comprises tool-less connectors, coupling targets, a controllable coupling selection arrangement, and a control arrangement. The tool-less connectors are for an electric contact with a separate docking apparatus or an electrode arrangement. The coupling targets include a battery and a data communication unit that performs electrically a plug-and-play data transfer with the separate docking apparatus. The tool-less connectors, the number of which is three, are electrically coupled with the controllable coupling selection arrangement, which electrically couples all the tool-less connectors with only one of the coupling targets at a time in response to control from the control arrangement. The battery receives electricity from the tool-less connectors for charging the battery through the electric coupling caused by the coupling selection arrangement under control of the control arrangement during a first time window when the bio-signal measurement apparatus is connected with the docking apparatus. The data communication unit sends and/or receives data through the tool-less connectors using the plug-and-play data transfer based on the electric coupling caused by the coupling selection arrangement under control of the control arrangement during a second time window when the bio-signal measurement apparatus is connected with the docking apparatus.

Abstract: A first mechanical connection part associated with a bio-signal receiving device is connected with a second mechanical connection part of a flexible patch electrode structure. An asymmetrical plate structure of a first mechanical connection part is inserted through a correspondingly asymmetrical hole of the second mechanical connection part of a flexible patch electrode structure. The asymmetrical plate structure is integrated with a bar and another side of the bar being coupled with a plane arrangement of the first mechanical connection part. The asymmetrical plate structure and the plane arrangement having a non-zero distance therebetween. Connection and orientation between the first mechanical connector and the second connection part is limited to those with acceptance of the asymmetry. The bio-signal receiving device and the flexible patch electrode structure are rotated with respect to each other round a rotational axis that is parallel to a longitudinal axis of the at least one bar in order to move an upper surface of the asymmetrical plate structure against the flat structure, the lower surface facing the plane arrangement, and the rotation causing a mechanical and electrical connection between the bio-signal receiving device and the flexible patch electrode structure.
