The insulator is made of resin containing homogeneously distributed benzene particles in a concentration of less than 0.4 mg/kg; bis-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate in a concentration of less than 0.025 wt. %; Lead in a concentration of less than 10 mg/kg; Mercury in a concentration of 548 mg/kg; Chromium in a concentration of less than 10 mg/kg; and Cadmium in a concentration of less than 5 mg/kg. The insulator also contains an adhesive layer for removable connection to a device, especially a mobile phone.

Description

Technical field

The present invention relates to an anti-electrosmog insulator and its use for neutralizing harmful non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation, which can be simply and removably attached to a device emitting the above-mentioned radiation. In particular, the present invention relates to an electromagnetic radiation isolator for a device, such as a mobile phone device, that receives or transmits radio frequency radiation.

Background art

A human organism reacts to electromagnetic stimuli, e.g. electromagnetic radiation. The effects of electromagnetic radiation can be divided into two groups - thermal and non-thermal. Unlike the thermal effects that affect people in contact with a high-intensity radio frequency field, the non-thermal effects can affect practically every person who has a mobile phone near their ear, hands on a keyboard and electronic devices most of the time, even in during rest or sleep.
One of the potential health risks for cell phone users is related to the high frequency radiation used to transmit cell phone signals. Similarly, other devices that receive or emit radio frequency radiation may also be associated with potential health risks due to user exposure to radio waves. Such devices may include wireless radio telephones and their base stations, analog and ISDN telephones, radios, computers, baby monitors, WLAN devices, air conditioners, refrigerators, microwave ovens, printers, washing machines.
Ionizing radiation generally has a destructive effect on living organisms, while the effects of non-ionizing radiation, such as radio waves, are not clear cut. However, according to the international application WO 2004/075583 , there are already proven causal cases between non-ionizing radiation and the effect on human health.
By electrosmog, the inventor refers to the result of the accumulation of various electromagnetic influences in one area, i.e. the accumulation of interaction between electric and magnetic fields and the exposed person, to a degree that may not exceed hygienic limits, but exceeds the biological resistance of the individual. Fatigue, weakness, exhaustion, stress are manifestations of exposure to electrosmog. Electrosmog is created during the production, transport and consumption of technically produced energy. This term is also confused with "electromagnetic compatibility of the human environment".
Due to the potential health risks of radio waves for mobile phone users and other devices listed above, it would therefore be advisable to reduce the amount of radio frequency radiation to which the mobile phone user is exposed.
JP2005332919A describes a case for a digital device such as a mobile phone that isolates electrosmog from a person. The case consists of several layers and for the user it is necessary to carry it with them or store the device in a case if it wants to remove electrosmog. It is also impractical to place the phone in this case from the point of view of immediate use of the device or visual supervision of it, or a sufficiently strong sound warning that the case will surely dampen.
The task of the present invention is therefore to provide a technical solution for at least partial reduction of electrosmog in a person's surroundings, thereby at least partially neutralizing its negative effects, while the device is simply removable and the user does not have to periodically place the device in an insulator against electrosmog as is the case, for example cases.

Summary of the invention

The above-mentioned disadvantages are overcome by the invention as defined in the patent claims. The present invention, in the first embodiment, essentially represents a self-adhesive insulator containing a hologram, the material of the insulator being a synthetic resin, in which the electromagnetic wave shielding material contributing to electrosmog is homogeneously distributed. The insulator is made of a material that transmits visible light. The essence of the invention is the homogeneity of the electromagnetic wave shielding material, which is integrated in the synthetic resin. The insulator according to the invention can be glued to a high-frequency device having a surface to which the insulator with the hologram is attached. The surface may be an external surface such as a cover or the like.
The insulator can be of any three-dimensional shape.
While the radio frequency device is in operation, the hologram isolator of the invention isolates at least a portion of the received and/or transmitted radio frequency radiation that is considered electrosmog without significantly affecting the quality of the radio frequency signal, thereby ensuring that the user is exposed to less radio frequency radiation than if the hologram was not present ý. The size of the hologram can be chosen according to the size of the device on which the insulating sticker is attached and according to the amount of radiation to be isolated from the person.
The insulator with the hologram is attached to a device, e.g. a mobile phone or a hands-free headset. The insulator with the hologram is attached to the device using an adhesive layer, known from the state of the art. More preferably, an adhesive is used with such strength that the hologram is securely attached to the device, but such that the hologram can be removed from the device at any time during its use. The insulator with the hologram can therefore be easily replaced as needed.
The hologram material is chosen to effectively absorb or reflect the electromagnetic waves contributing to electrosmog, but still be optically transparent to the electromagnetic radiation carrying the signal between devices. This material is preferably chosen in accordance with the functional parameters of the given device. In a certain embodiment, the material of the hologram is advantageously chosen so that it transmits a mobile signal with a frequency of 2 GHz, but absorbs most of the other radiation in the area of radio frequency waves, i.e. in the area from 2 GHz - 30 GHz. The theoretical basis for choosing such a material, including examples, can be found, for example, in Hualiang Lv, Zhihong Yang, Hongge Pan, Renbing Wu, Electromagnetic absorption materials: Current progress and new frontiers, Progress in Materials Science, Volume 127, 2022, 100946, ISSN 0079-6425, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pmatsci.2022.100946 .

Brief description of drawing

An embodiment of the present invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 represents a front view and a side view of an insulator with a hologram according to the invention

Detailed description

Figure 1 shows an electrosmog insulator with a hologram according to the invention. The insulator with the hologram can be removably attached, with the help of an adhesive layer, to the mobile phone according to one embodiment of the present invention. The mobile phone contains an internal antenna for receiving and/or transmitting a high-frequency signal to/from the nearest base station. Base stations continuously transmit low-power radio waves to cell phones, while cell phones transmit radio waves only during a call.
An insulator with a hologram can be placed on the back surface of the mobile phone. Alternatively, an insulator with a suitably shaped hologram could be placed on the side surface of the mobile phone or any other available location. Preferably, the insulator with the hologram is placed horizontally in the middle of the phone.
In another embodiment, an insulator with a hologram, according to an alternative embodiment of this invention, can be placed on a baby monitor or on any other device emitting electromagnetic radiation, e.g. analogy and ISDN telephones, radios, computers, WLAN devices, air conditioners, refrigerators, microwave ovens , printer, washing machine.
In embodiments according to the invention, the electrosmog insulator with the hologram attached to the electromagnetic radiation emitting device is attached with an adhesive layer on one side of the insulator. This adhesive layer is applied during the preparation of the insulator, while the end product can be further provided with a protective layer placed on the adhesive layer so that during transfer or packaging there is no degradation of this adhesive layer and at the same time that the adhesive layer maintains its adhesive properties until the first use. In one embodiment, this protective layer placed on the adhesive layer can be waxed paper. The adhesive layer should be of a material, such as an adhesive, that is strong enough to allow firm, yet removable, attachment of the hologram insulator to the mobile phone, but not so strong that the hologram cannot be completely removed from the device.
The adhesive layer easily sticks the insulator to e.g. metal, wood, glass, plastic, etc.
In the embodiments of Figure 1, the insulator with the hologram has an elliptical cross-section. However, in alternative embodiments, the hologram insulator may be shaped differently. In other embodiments, the hologram may be circular or square. The use of other hologram shapes is also considered.
The size of the hologram insulator can be such that it covers approximately half the area of the back surface of a device, e.g. a mobile phone. In a preferred embodiment, the insulator with a hologram with an ellipse cross-section has a major axis dimension of 45 mm and a minor axis of 22 mm, or 20 mm and 10 mm, and a height of 2 mm. The height is preferably chosen in such a way that it effectively isolates the electrosmog device from the person.
In particular, the size of the hologram to be used may vary according to the area of space available on the mobile phone.
The hologram can be a single colour photopolymer hologram (e.g. green or amber). The hologram is preferably light in colour to provide a clear contrast against the dark coloured edge burn. Alternatively, two colour photopolymer holograms (e.g. red-green or blue-green) can be used. In another alternative embodiment, full colour photopolymer holograms may be used.
Preferably, the insulator with the hologram contains a visual indicator when the hologram should be replaced. The visual indicator can be in the form of alternate guides or marks on the hologram.
The hologram material is chosen to effectively absorb or reflect the electromagnetic waves contributing to electrosmog, but still be optically transparent to the electromagnetic radiation carrying the signal between devices. This material is preferably chosen in accordance with the functional parameters of the given device. In a certain embodiment, the material of the hologram is advantageously chosen so that it transmits a mobile signal with a frequency of 2 GHz, but absorbs most of the other radiation in the area of radio frequency waves, i.e. in the area from 2 GHz - 30 GHz. The theoretical basis for choosing such a material, including examples, can be found, for example, in Hualiang Lv, Zhihong Yang, Hongge Pan, Renbing Wu, Electromagnetic absorption materials: Current progress and new frontiers, Progress in Materials Science, Volume 127, 2022, 100946, ISSN 0079-6425, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pmatsci.2022.100946 .
