Technical field
The present invention relates to medical instruments field, be specifically related to a kind of nervus auricularis vagi stimulation instrument.
Background technology
Through clinical verification, the nerve electric stimulation therapy that adopts electronic technology to combine with traditional acupuncture meridian theory has curative effect to maladjusted nervous system disease.The secretion of vagus nerve domination respiratory system and most organs of digestive system and sensation, motion and the body of gland of heart, carries out electricity irritation for vagus nerve, and epilepsy, diabetes, insomnia, depression etc. are had to good auxiliary therapeutic action.Auricular branch in vagal cervical region branch is containing general somesthesia fiber, from superior ganglion, be distributed in after auricle and the skin of external auditory meatus outward backward, referring to Fig. 1, A place (auditory meatus mouth), B place (auricle portion) are vagal ear acupuncture point, and vagus nerve ending is abundant, therefore, carry out electricity irritation for A, acupuncture point, B place, can reach the effect of nerve electric stimulation treatment.
In prior art, there is the equipment for electrical vagus nerve stimulation auricular branch, its mode that site of action is positioned to auricular branch acupuncture point has head-hoop, earclip type etc., and these modes are larger to the strength of user ear clamping, use uncomfortable, and application point is unadjustable, therefore use motility also poor.In addition, be also useful on the nerve stimulation instrument of the implanted of adjuvant therapy of diabetes, but this stimulation instrument is expensive, and this nerve stimulation instrument is only used for the treatment of diabetes.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides a kind of nervus auricularis vagi stimulation instrument, its object is to solve current ear's nerve stimulation instrument inconvenient operation, uncomfortable and poor problem of use motility in use.
For achieving the above object, the technical solution used in the present invention is: a kind of nervus auricularis vagi stimulation instrument, and this nervus auricularis vagi stimulation instrument is by ear's electrode, main frame, and connection wire forms;
Described main frame comprises housing, is equipped with a crook on described housing, and the common face forming in a side on the medial surface of crook and described housing and the shape of the hard of hearing lateral surface of human body match so that main frame can hang over human body hard of hearing on;
Described ear electrode comprises the support of insulation, locate and act in use earplug electrode and the location of auditory meatus mouth and act on auricle electrode and the adjusting knob of auricle portion, described earplug electrode is installed on described support, and described auricle electrode is slidably connected on support; Described adjusting knob is tightened on support, so that the slip of auricle electrode is positioned on support after putting in place; Described earplug electrode is connected main frame with auricle electrode through described connection wire.
Related content in technique scheme is explained as follows:
1,, in such scheme, preferably scheme is that described main frame also comprises the chip being installed in housing; On described housing, be also provided with at least one button; Press in use described button and can trigger described chip operation, so that main frame output impulse wave.
2, in such scheme, preferably scheme is that described support is an insulating vessel, and the one end that connects wire is inserted in the container cavity of described insulating vessel, and the other end stretches out from container cavity;
Described earplug electrode comprises a conduction straight-bar and a conduction earplug, and one end of conduction straight-bar connects described conduction earplug, and the other end is through described insulating vessel and stretch in the container cavity of described insulating vessel and be connected wire connection; Described conduction straight-bar is in screw nut structure is fixed on insulating vessel, so that earplug electrode is installed on support; The outer rim shape of described conduction earplug and the shape of auditory meatus mouth match.
