Description

Vorrichtung zum Hörbarmachen von elektrischen Aktionsströmen organischen Ursprungs, insbesondere der Herzaktionsströme Es sind bereits Vorrichtungen zum Hörbarmachen von Herzaktionsströmen bekannt, die darauf beruhen, daß die Herzaktionsströme niederfrequente Schwingungen beeinflussen, deren Schwankungen gegebenenfalls nach einer Verstärkung hörbar gemacht werden. Es ist ferner anderweitig in der elektrischen Meßtechnik bekannt, daß durch Kapazitätsschwankungen eines elektrischen Schwingungskreises zwei Schwingungskreise gegeneinander derart verstimmt werden, daB hörbare Tonschwebungen entstehen.Device for making audible electrical action currents organic Origin, in particular the cardiac action currents There are already devices for Making audible cardiac activity currents known, which are based on the fact that the cardiac activity currents affect low-frequency vibrations, the fluctuations of which may be affected an amplification can be made audible. It is also otherwise in the electrical Measurement technology known that due to fluctuations in the capacitance of an electrical oscillating circuit two oscillation circles are detuned from one another in such a way that audible sound beats develop.

Die Erfindung ist eine Vorrichtung zum Hörbarmachen von Aktionsströmen organisehen Ursprungs, z. B. von Herzaktionsströmen, die sich von den bisherigen Verfahren dadurch unterscheidet, daß bei ihr die zu untersuchenden Aktionsströme durch eine Hilfsvorrichtung in an sich bekannter Weise einen von zwei in Resonanz oder nahezu in Resonanz befindlichen Hochfrequenzkreisen verstimmen. Durch diese Verstimmung treten Schwebungen auf, die den Schwankungen der zu untersuchenden Ströme entsprechen .und so gewählt werden"daß ihre Frequenzen im Bereich der hörbaren Töne liegen. Gegenüber der obenerwähnten bekannten Methode, die Änderungen der Herzaktionsströme in Schwankungen der Lautstärke eines hörbaren. Tones gleichbleibender Frequenz umzusetzen, bietet das neue Meßverfahren in der Hauptsache einen Vorteil, der auf den physiologischen Eigenschaften des menschlichen Gehörs beruht. Denn bekanntlich ist das Ohr für Schwankungen der Lautstärke eines Tones verhältnismäßig unempfindlich, dagegen für Änderungen der Schwingungszahlen eines Tones erheblich empfindlicher. Die neue Vorrichtung sei an Hand der Abbildung näher erläutert. Die zu untersuchenden Ströme werden in bekannter Weise mittels Elektroden abgenommen und im Wandler X zu Kapazitätsschwankungen umgeformt; hierdurch wird die Frequenz der Schwingungen des Schwingungskreises F1 beeinflußt. Die Schwingungen eines zweiten Schwingungskreises F2 gleichbleibender Frequenz überlagern sich mit den Schwingungen des Kreises F1 und bilden Interferenzschwingungen. Der Lautsprecher L gibt die Interferenzschwingungen als hörbare Töne wieder, denen Tonhöhe und Rhythmus sich entsprechend den dem Wandler X zugeleiteten Aktionsströmen verändert.The invention is a device for making action streams audible of organic origin, e.g. B. of cardiac action currents, which differ from the previous Method differs in that with her the action streams to be examined one of two in resonance by an auxiliary device in a manner known per se or high-frequency circuits that are almost in resonance are out of tune. Through this Detuning, beats occur, which correspond to the fluctuations in the currents to be examined and are chosen so that their frequencies are in the range of audible tones lie. Compared to the known method mentioned above, the changes in the currents of cardiac action in fluctuations in the volume of an audible. To implement tones of constant frequency, The new measuring method offers an advantage mainly on the physiological Properties of the human hearing is based. Because, as is well known, the ear is for fluctuations relatively insensitive to the volume of a tone, but to changes the number of vibrations of a tone is considerably more sensitive. The new device is explained in more detail on the basis of the figure. The currents to be examined are in known way removed by means of electrodes and in the transducer X to fluctuations in capacitance reshaped; as a result, the frequency of the oscillations of the oscillating circuit F1 influenced. The oscillations of a second oscillation circuit F2 more constant Frequency are superimposed with the oscillations of the circle F1 and form interference oscillations. The loudspeaker L reproduces the interference vibrations as audible tones The pitch and rhythm correspond to the action streams fed to the converter X. changes.

Der Wandler X ist ein Hilfsapparat zur Umwandlung von Stromschwankungen in Kapazitätsschwankungen. Er kann z. B. aus einem Plattenkondensator bestehen, dessen eine Platte feststeht, und dessen andere Platte beweglich angebracht ist; letztere wird beispielsweise durch elektromagnetische Anziehung im Rhythmus der eingeleiteten Aktionsströme bewegt, so daß die erforderlichen Kapazitätsschwankungen hervorgerufen werden.The converter X is an auxiliary device for converting current fluctuations in capacity fluctuations. He can z. B. consist of a plate capacitor, one plate of which is fixed and the other plate is movably mounted; the latter is made for example by electromagnetic attraction in the rhythm of the initiated streams of action moved, so that the required fluctuations in capacity be evoked.
