Description

The claimed useful relates to devices for translational neurostimulation used in sports and medicine.

Known systems include devices (mouthpieces) for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation to the tongue, described in patents RU 2649512 and RU 194112, which are at least a printed circuit board with a plurality of electrodes for providing subcutaneous local electrical stimulation of the tongue, means for supplying current to electrodes and a control circuit for controlling electrical signals supplied to the electrodes, the control circuit elements being located on the board of one side. With this arrangement, there is a mutual influence of the active elements of the circuit on the output stages of the generated pulse shapers, which distorts the signal and does not allow obtaining a clean signal on each individual point element.

The utility model is aimed at reducing the mutual influence of the circuit elements on the output stages of the generated pulse shapers, which makes it possible to obtain a clean signal at each individual point element.

The claimed effects are achieved by a device for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation, which consists of at least a printed circuit board with a plurality of electrodes for providing subcutaneous local electrical stimulation of the tongue, means for supplying current to the electrodes from a power source and a control circuit for controlling electrical signals supplied to electrodes, and the components of the specified control circuit are located on the printed circuit board on both sides.

The system for the presentation of electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation usually consists of:

- devices for controlling the supply of current to the device for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation to the tongue, which is a unit, fixed, as a rule, on the hand and equipped with a built-in battery from which current is supplied to the device for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation through the components of the control device supply of current, and includes, as a rule, an analog control interface, for example, buttons and / or encoders, or in the form of a touch screen, which gives an advantage over an analog interface by simplifying design and manufacturing, as well as reducing the number of components and assemblies susceptible to breakdown. The interface usually includes adjusting the intensity and timing of the voltage;

- a device that supplies a current from the specified control device to a device for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation, for example, made in the form of a stranded wire;

- a device for the presentation of electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation, consisting of at least a printed circuit board with a plurality of electrodes for providing subcutaneous local electrical stimulation of the tongue, means for supplying current to the electrodes and a control circuit that distributes electrical signals to the electrodes in accordance with a predetermined algorithm, to control the electrical signals supplied to the electrodes, while to reduce the mutual influence of the circuit elements on the output stages of the generated pulse generators, the components of the said control circuit are located on the printed circuit board on both sides thereof.

To achieve the claimed positive effect, it is also necessary to have a printed circuit board of the device for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation, on which the electrodes are located, and, therefore, a device for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation with such a board, to be performed in such a way that the components of the control circuit are located on the PCB on both sides. Such an arrangement of the components of the control circuit of the printed circuit board for the device for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation will reduce the mutual influence of the circuit elements on the output stages of the generated pulse shapers, which will make it possible to obtain a cleaner signal at each individual point element. In addition, this arrangement of components on the printed circuit board gives a number of positive effects: it allows to reduce the area of the device protruding from the mouth for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation, which will increase the usability by reducing the weight of the protruding part and reducing the holding force of the device for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation. neurostimulation in the mouth, while moving the center of gravity closer to the tongue, to improve the contact between the electrodes and the tongue; reducing the material consumption of both the printed circuit board material and the material of the device body for the presentation of electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation; conditions are created for increasing the distance between circuit components to improve maintainability without the use of specialized equipment or the use of large components to allow the use of less expensive components and processors with a large memory capacity to expand the functions that can be implemented through a device for presenting electrical impulses during translingual neurostimulation.
