Description
In der sich in letzter Zeit stark durchsetzenden Ultraschalltherapie werden die Forderungen nach genauer Dosierung und stufenloser Leistungsregelung bis hinunter zu den kleinsten Schalleistungen von nur 1/10 Watt immer bestimmter. Die Leistungsregelung wurde bisher durch Verstimmung der Frequenz des den Piezoquarz erregenden Hochfrequenzgenerators oder durch Regelung der Heizung der Generatorröhren mit einem Potentiometer vorgenommen. Die Leistungsregelung durch Verstimmen hat den Nachteil, dass die Quarzamplitude bei geringster Verstimmung infolge der scharfen Resonanz des Quarzes schnell beträchtlich absinkt. In dieser Beziehung ist die Leistungsregelung durch Regeln der Heizung, wobei der Quarz in Resonanz bleibt, vorteilhafter. Der Nachteil beider Verfahren besteht jedoch darin, dass die Regelung nicht reproduzierbar und bis auf Null hinter möglich ist, da einmal bei der Verstimmungsregelung genügende Frequenzvariationen schwer möglich sind, andererseits die Heizungsregelung durch die zulässige Unterheizung der Röhren begrenzt ist.In ultrasound therapy, which has become increasingly popular recently, the requirements for precise dosing and stepless power control down to the smallest sound power of only 1/10 watt are becoming more and more specific. The power regulation was previously carried out by detuning the frequency of the high-frequency generator exciting the piezo quartz or by regulating the heating of the generator tubes with a potentiometer. Power regulation by detuning has the disadvantage that the crystal amplitude quickly drops considerably with the slightest detuning due to the sharp resonance of the crystal. In this regard, power control by regulating the heating, with the crystal remaining in resonance, is more advantageous. The disadvantage of both methods, however, is that the regulation is not reproducible and possible down to zero, because on the one hand sufficient frequency variations are difficult to achieve in the detuning regulation, on the other hand the heating regulation is limited by the permissible underheating of the tubes.
Erfindungsgemäss wird daher vorgeschlagen, den Quarz stets mit der Resonanz-Frequenz zu erregen und zur Leistungsregelung allein die an den Quarz angelegte Hochfrequenz-Wechselspannung zu ändern. Die Regelung der Wechselspannung soll hierbei stufenlos durch ein Potentiometer vorgenommen werden, dessen Skala unmittelbar in Schalleistung geeicht ist. Die Eichung kann für jedes Gerät individuell mittels einer Schallwaage durchgeführt werden.According to the invention it is therefore proposed to always excite the quartz with the resonance frequency and to change only the high-frequency alternating voltage applied to the quartz for power control. The regulation of the alternating voltage should be carried out steplessly by a potentiometer, the scale of which is directly calibrated in sound power. The calibration can be carried out individually for each device using a sound balance.
Da gemäss der neuesten Ultraschall-Forschung in der Medizin besonders eine feine Regelung im Gebiet kleinster Leistung gefordert wird, wird weiterhin vorgeschlagen, den Regelbereich umschaltbar zu unterteilen dergestalt, dass ein Bereich die Leistungen von etwa 0 bis 10 Watt, ein zweiter Bereich die Leistungen bis etwa 50 Watt enthält.Since, according to the latest ultrasound research in medicine, particularly fine control is required in the area of the lowest power, it is further proposed to divide the control range in a switchable manner such that one range provides power from about 0 to 10 watts, and a second range power up to contains about 50 watts.
