Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein medizinisches Diagnosegerät und für Aufnahmen von Koronaentladungen nach dem Kirlian-Prinzip nach dem Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruchs.The invention relates to a medical diagnostic device and for recordings of corona discharges according to the Kirlian principle according to the preamble of the main claim.
Die Kirliandiagnostik bewertet Entladungsbilder, die an einem oder mehreren menschlichen Fingern oder Zehen aufgenommen werden. Die Finger bilden dabei eine Elektrode. Sein elektrisches Potential ist das Erdpotential. Wird mit dem Finger eine dünne Isolierstoffschicht aus Material mit großer Permeabilität berührt, auf deren entgegengesetzter Oberfläche eine Elektrode mit Hochspannung gegen Erde angeordnet ist, entsteht am Rand des aufliegenden Fingers eine hohe elektrische Feldstärke. Bei ausreichender Höhe führt diese Feldstärke auf der Plattenoberfläche zu Anregungen und unmittelbar danach zu Rückkopplungen der angeregten Elektronen. Dadurch entstehen Lichtblitze, die auch als Koronaentladungen bezeichnet werden.Kirliandiagnostik evaluates discharge images taken on one or more human fingers or toes. The fingers form an electrode. Its electrical potential is the earth potential. If a thin insulating material layer of high permeability material is touched with the finger, on the opposite surface of which an electrode is arranged with high voltage to earth, creates a high electric field strength at the edge of the resting finger. At sufficient height, this field strength on the disk surface leads to excitations and immediately thereafter to feedback of the excited electrons. This produces light flashes, which are also called corona discharges.

Die genannten Diagnose-Geräte erzeugen auswertbare Kirlianfotos. Die Qualität, d. h. Auswertbarkeit der Koronaentladungen, hängt grundsätzlich sensibel von den Umgebungsbedingungen, sowie der Wahl der Hochspannung ab. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass die in den oben genannten Geräten verwendete Hochspannung nicht zur Diagnose hinreichend vieler Krankheiten verwendet werden kann.The mentioned diagnostic devices generate evaluable Kirlian photos. The quality, d. H. Evaluability of the corona discharges, depends fundamentally sensitive on the ambient conditions, as well as the choice of high voltage. It has been found that the high voltage used in the above devices can not be used to diagnose a sufficient number of diseases.
Es ist deshalb Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein medizinisches Diagnosegerät für Aufnahmen von Koronaentladungen nach dem Kirlianprinzip zur Verfügung zu stellen, mit dessen Hilfe besser auswertbare Kirlianfotos zur Verfügung gestellt werden können.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a medical diagnostic device for recordings of corona discharges according to the Kirlian principle, with the aid of which better evaluable Kirlian photos can be made available.
Die Aufgabe wird durch ein eingangs genanntes medizinisches Diagnosegerät erfüllt, das die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils des Hauptanspruchs aufweist. Die durch Koronaentladungen entstehenden Kirlian-Bilder sind hochsensibel gegenüber Störungen durch umgebende elektrische Felder und andere äußere Einflüsse.The object is achieved by an aforementioned medical diagnostic device having the features of the characterizing part of the main claim. The Kirlian images produced by corona discharges are highly sensitive to disturbances caused by surrounding electric fields and other external influences.
Eine die Sensorplatte umlaufende Abschirmelektrode, die umlaufend mit der leitenden Schicht in Verbindung steht, reduziert den Effekt von störenden Randfeldern entlang der leitenden Schicht der Sensorplatte erheblich und führt zu deutlich stabileren Kirlian-Bildern.A shield electrode encircling the sensor plate, which is circumferentially connected to the conductive layer, significantly reduces the effect of interfering fringing fields along the conductive layer of the sensor plate and leads to much more stable Kirlian images.
Herkömmlicherweise werden die Koronaentladungen direkt auf Fotopapier aufgenommen. Das ist kostenintensiv. Der erfindungsgemäße Aufbau der Sensorplatte als ein quer zur Auflagefläche lichtdurchlässiges Medium kann hier Abhilfe schaffen, weil sie die Anordnung einer Kamera, insbesondere Digitalkamera, auf der dem Patienten gegenüberliegenden Seite der Sensorplatte gestattet.Conventionally, the corona discharges are recorded directly on photographic paper. That's costly. The inventive structure of the sensor plate as a transversely to the support surface translucent medium can provide relief because it allows the arrangement of a camera, in particular digital camera, on the side opposite the patient side of the sensor plate.
Günstigerweise ist die Abschirmelektrode in einem Querschnitt senkrecht zur Umlaufrichtung kreisförmig ausgebildet. Dadurch werden besonders wenige starke Felder erzeugende Kanten gebildet. Es werden klar abgegrenzte Bilder erzeugt.Conveniently, the shielding electrode is circular in a cross section perpendicular to the direction of rotation. As a result, very few strong fields generating edges are formed. Clearly demarcated images are generated.
Vorzugsweise ist die Schichtreihenfolge der Sensorplatte ausgehend vom Patienten: äußere Schutzschicht, Isolierschicht, Strom leitende Schicht und innere Isolierschicht. Die Isolierschichten sind günstigenfalls Glasplatten, vorzugsweise vergütete Glasplatten. Auf der dem Patienten zugewandten Seite der Isolierschicht oder der äußeren Schutzschicht kann auch eine verspiegelte Schicht aufgebracht sein. Das hat den Vorteil, dass der Patient nicht direkt durch die Glasscheiben der Sensorplatte in das Innere des Gerätes schauen kann.Preferably, the layer order of the sensor plate is based on the patient: outer protective layer, insulating layer, current-conducting layer and inner insulating layer. At best, the insulating layers are glass plates, preferably tempered glass plates. On the patient-facing side of the insulating layer or the outer protective layer can also be applied a mirrored layer. That has that Advantage that the patient can not look directly through the glass panes of the sensor plate into the interior of the device.
Es hat sich gezeigt, dass besonders gut auswertbare Kirlianfotos entstehen, wenn die an der der Sensorplatte anliegende hochfrequente Hochspannung eine im Wesentlichen gleich bleibende Frequenz und eine über die Zeit abfallende Amplitude aufweist. Zur Erzeugung einer solchen Ausgangsspannung wird erfindungsgemäß ein Hochspannungsgerät mit einer Schaltung zur Verfügung gestellt, die einen elektronischen Schwingkreis umfasst, der über einen Thyristor geschaltet wird. Thyristoren sind auch unter hoher Spannungsbelastung dauerhaft haltbar. Der Schwingkreis weist erfindungsgemäß einen Teslatransformator auf, der im Gegensatz zu herkömmlichen Spulen insbesondere zur Erzeugung hoher Frequenzen geeignet ist.It has been shown that Kirlian photos which can be evaluated particularly well arise when the high-frequency high voltage applied to the sensor plate has a substantially constant frequency and an amplitude which drops over time. To generate such an output voltage, a high-voltage device with a circuit is provided according to the invention, which comprises an electronic resonant circuit, which is connected via a thyristor. Thyristors are durable even under high voltage load. According to the invention, the resonant circuit has a tesla transformer, which, in contrast to conventional coils, is particularly suitable for generating high frequencies.
Der Teslatransformator ist vorzugsweise mit einem gemeinsamen Ferritkern für Primär- und Sekundärspule ausgestattet. Beide Spulen sind übereinander gewickelt und durch eine Isolierschicht voneinander getrennt und gemeinsam in Harz vergossen. Gegenüber den bei Teslatransformatoren üblichen Luftkopplungen erzeugt der erfindungsgemäß abgewandelte Teslatransformator stabilere Ausgangsfrequenzen.The Tesla transformer is preferably equipped with a common ferrite core for primary and secondary coil. Both coils are wound on top of each other and separated by an insulating layer and potted together in resin. In contrast to the air couplings customary in Tesla transformers, the modified Tesla transformer according to the invention produces more stable output frequencies.
Auch aufgrund der besonders sicheren Ausführung des Teslatransformators konnte das erfindungsgemäße medizinische Diagnosegerät die Zulassung nach deutschem Medizinproduktgesetz bekommen. Herkömmliche Teslatransformatoren eignen sich demgegenüber nicht zum Einbau in medizinische Geräte.Also due to the particularly safe design of the Tesla transformer, the medical diagnostic device according to the invention could get the approval according to German Medical Devices Act. In contrast, conventional Tesla transformers are not suitable for installation in medical devices.
Durch den Netzanschluss kann das Gerät mit einer hinreichend starken Stromquelle verbunden werden und es ist dennoch weitgehend autark. Grundsätzlich ist es auch denkbar, dass das Gerät durch eine Batterie mit Strom versorgt wird. Dem Netzanschluss nachgeordnet ist zunächst ein Trenntransformator und dann ein Gleichrichter, mit dem der wenigstens eine ständige Zwischenspeicherkondensator aufladbar ist, dessen Spannung den Thyristor schaltet.Due to the mains connection, the device can be connected to a sufficiently strong power source and it is still largely self-sufficient. In principle, it is also conceivable that the device is powered by a battery with power. Downstream of the mains connection is first an isolating transformer and then a rectifier with which the at least one permanent intermediate storage capacitor can be charged, the voltage of which switches the thyristor.
In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist der Thyristor mit einem Potentiometer verbunden, das von außen manuell oder rechnergesteuert verstellbar ist. Das Potentiometer regelt die Höhe der Zündspannung des Thyristors und damit die Höhe der Ausgangsspannung. Vorzugsweise ist die Ausgangsspannung zwischen 25 kV Pk-Pk und 2,5 kV Pk-Pk mittels des Potentiometers einstellbar. Die Angabe Pk-Pk bezieht sich dabei auch auf die Differenz der beiden Peaks der ersten Schwingung der über die Zeit abfallenden Wechselspannung,In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the thyristor is connected to a potentiometer, which can be adjusted manually or computer-controlled from the outside. The potentiometer controls the level of the ignition voltage of the thyristor and thus the level of the output voltage. Preferably, the output voltage is between 25 kV Pk-Pk and 2.5 kV Pk-Pk adjustable by means of the potentiometer. The statement Pk-Pk also refers to the difference between the two peaks of the first oscillation of the alternating voltage dropping over time,
Es hat sich aber überraschend gezeigt, dass die aussagekräftigsten Kirlianaufnahmen bei einer Ausgangsspannung ohne Last, d.h. ohne Kontakt des Fingers und/oder Zehs mit einer Frequenz von 35 kHz und eine Amplitudenspannung von 25 kV Pk-Pk entstehen. Beim Kontakt - also bei Last - ändert sich diese Frequenz auf 36 kHz bei einer Spannung von 19 kV Pk-Pk.However, it has surprisingly been found that the most meaningful Kirlian recordings at an output voltage without load, i. arise without contact of the finger and / or toe with a frequency of 35 kHz and an amplitude voltage of 25 kV Pk-Pk. On contact - ie at load - this frequency changes to 36 kHz at a voltage of 19 kV Pk-Pk.
Weil das medizinische Diagnosegerät zur Zulassung nach dem deutschen Medizinproduktgesetz bestimmt ist, liegen die Ausgangsströme höchstens im µA-Bereich.Because the medical diagnostic device is intended for approval according to the German Medical Devices Act, the output currents are at most in the μA range.
Vorzugsweise ist wenigstens ein ständiger Zwischenspeicherkondensator am Eingang des Thyristors angeschlossen und bestimmt damit dessen Eingangsspannung, und der Ausgang des Thyristors ist über ein Entkopplungsdiode mit dem Schwingkreis elektrisch verbunden, und der wenigstens eine Speicherkondensator ist über den Thyristor entladbar und regt den Schwingkreis zu Schwingungen an.Preferably, at least one permanent latch capacitor is connected to the input of the thyristor and thus determines its input voltage, and the output of the thyristor is electrically connected via a decoupling diode to the resonant circuit, and the at least one storage capacitor is dischargeable via the thyristor and stimulates the resonant circuit to oscillate.
Die erfindungsgemäße Schaltung eignet sich auch für den Einbau in herkömmliche Kirliandiagnose-Geräte, die auf der Verwendung von Fotopapier beruhen.The circuit according to the invention is also suitable for installation in conventional Kirliandiagnose devices based on the use of photographic paper.
Die Schaltung des Hochspannungsgenerators ist in einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung von außen über einen ersten Steueranschluss, der mit dem Potentiometer in Verbindung steht und einen zweiten Steueranschluss, der mit dem Teslatransformator in Verbindung steht und dessen zugeschaltete Spulenanzahl steuert, steuerbar.The circuit of the high voltage generator is controllable in a development of the invention from the outside via a first control terminal, which is in communication with the potentiometer and a second control terminal, which is in communication with the Tesla transformer and controls its switched coil number.
Vorzugsweise ist als Aufnahmeeinrichtung eine Digitalkamera vorgesehen. Sowohl Digitalkamera als auch erster und zweiter Steueranschluss können über einen USB-BUS mit einer USB-II-Schnittstelle eines PCs verbunden sein. Dadurch wird eine rechnergesteuerte Auswertung der Kirlianfotos möglich. Es eröffnet sich daneben die Möglichkeit der Ferndiagnose.Preferably, a digital camera is provided as a recording device. Both the digital camera and the first and second control ports can be connected to a USB-II interface of a PC via a USB BUS. This allows a computer-controlled evaluation of the Kirlian photos. It opens next to the possibility of remote diagnosis.

Die Entladungen sind als Funken oder Lichtblitze sichtbar und werden mit einer innenseitig hinter der Sensorplatte angeordneten Digitalkamera aufgenommen. Das Foto der Koronaentladung wird von einem Arzt diagnostiziert, und aus dem Foto können Rückschlüsse auf den Gesundheitszustand des Patienten gezogen werden.The discharges are visible as sparks or flashes of light and are recorded with a digital camera arranged on the inside behind the sensor plate. The photo of the corona discharge is diagnosed by a doctor, and from the photo can be drawn conclusions about the health of the patient.
Das Koronaentladungsbild ist sensibel abhängig von einer Reihe äußerer Einflussfaktoren. Dazu gehören u. a. im Umfeld der Sensorplatte angeordnete leitende Gegenstände, die das durch die Sensorplatte erzeugte Feld beeinflussen. Aus diesem Grund ist das Kirliandiagnose-Gerät auf einem Holzständer 20 gemäß
Wesentlich für die Aussagekraft der Fotos der Koronaentladung z.B. gemäß
Der Trenntransformator Tr ist mit einem Gleichrichter Gl in Reihe geschaltet, der einen Speicherkondensator Sp auflädt. Der Speicherkondensator Sp lädt über einen Entkopplungswiderstand EW Zwischenspeicherkondensatoren ZSp auf.The isolation transformer Tr is connected in series with a rectifier Gl, which charges a storage capacitor Sp. The storage capacitor Sp charges intermediate storage capacitors ZSp via a decoupling resistor EW.
In der in
Eine Freilaufdiode FD verhindert beim Umschalten eines Thyristors TS, dass Ladung vom ständig angeschlossenen Zwischenspeicherkondensator ZSp abgezogen wird. Der Thyristor TS ist über ein Zehngangpotentiometer Pt steuerbar. Der Thyristor TS löst bei einer in der Höhe durch das Zehngangpotentiometer Pt einstellbaren Zündspannung aus. Bei Erreichen der eingestellten Zündspannung an den Zwischenspeicherkondensatoren ZSp schaltet der Thyristor TS deren Spannung selbsttätig auf den Schwingkreis mit Schwingkreiskondensator SK und Hochspannungstransformator HT. Eine Entkopplungsdiode ED verhindert die Stromumkehr und Rückübertragung von Energie auf die Zwischenspeicherkondensatoren ZSp. Der Hochspannungstransformator HT ist erfindungsgemäß ein Teslatransformator HT. Der Thyristor TS fällt nach Entladung der Zwischenspeicherkondensatoren ZSp, ZSp1, ZSp2, ZSp3 wieder in den Sperrzustand zurück. Die im Schwingkreis angeregten Schwingungen klingen ab. Während des Abklingens der Hochspannung im Schwingkreis werden die Zwischenspeicherkondensatoren ZSp, ZSp1, ZSp2, ZSp3 erneut über den Entkopplungswiderstand EW bis zur Zündspannung des Thyristors TS aufgeladen und der beschriebene Vorgang wiederholt sich.A freewheeling diode FD prevents when switching a thyristor TS, that charge is subtracted from the permanently connected buffer capacitor ZSp. The thyristor TS can be controlled via a ten-turn potentiometer Pt. The thyristor TS triggers at an adjustable in height by the Zehngangpotentiometer Pt ignition voltage. Upon reaching the set ignition voltage to the latching capacitors ZSp the thyristor TS automatically switches their voltage to the resonant circuit with resonant circuit capacitor SK and high voltage transformer HT. A decoupling diode ED prevents the current reversal and retransmission of energy to the latch capacitors ZSp. The high-voltage transformer HT according to the invention is a Tesla transformer HT. The thyristor TS falls back into the blocking state after discharge of the intermediate storage capacitors ZSp, ZSp1, ZSp2, ZSp3. The vibrations excited in the resonant circuit are canceled out. During the decay of the high voltage in the resonant circuit, the intermediate storage capacitors ZSp, ZSp1, ZSp2, ZSp3 are charged again via the decoupling resistor EW to the ignition voltage of the thyristor TS and the process described is repeated.
Die vollständige Schaltung mit den ermittelten Werten der Bestückungselemente ist in
Der Teslatransformator HT weist einen Spulenkern mit Hochspannungswicklungen auf, die in Harz vergossen sind. Ein Ferritkern erhält mit nicht ferromagnetischen und isolierenden Plättchen als Distanzstücke in beiden Schenkeln je einen Spalt von 1 mm Breite. Er ist durch eine mit leitfähigem Klebstoff beschichtete Kupferfolie mit Masse verbunden. Als Primärspule dienen sechs Windungen isolierten Schaltdrahtes von 1 mm Querschnitt, die auf den freien Schenkeln gegenüber der Hochspannungsspule auf den Ferritkern gewickelt sind.The Tesla transformer HT has a coil core with high-voltage windings which are cast in resin. A ferrite core is replaced by non-ferromagnetic and insulating plates as spacers in both legs each have a gap of 1 mm width. It is connected to ground by a copper foil coated with conductive adhesive. The primary coil is six turns of insulated wire of 1 mm cross-section, which are wound on the free legs relative to the high-voltage coil on the ferrite core.

Wenn ein Finger auf die Sensorplatte gelegt wird, verändert sich der Spannungsverlauf gemäß
Das erfindungsgemäße Spannungsbild gestattet selbst bei geringen Spannungen bereits die Aufnahme auswertbarer Koronaentladungsbilder. Bei höheren Ausgangsspannungen, insbesondere der maximalen Ausgangsspannung von 25 kV (Pk-Pk), ergeben sich die geeignetsten Koronaentladungsbilder.The voltage pattern according to the invention already allows the recording of evaluable corona discharge images even at low voltages. At higher output voltages, in particular the maximum output voltage of 25 kV (Pk-Pk), the most suitable corona discharge images result.
Das Frequenzspektrum der Koronaentladung hängt entscheidend vom Aufbau der Sensorplatte 30 ab.
In einer Draufsicht weist die Auflagefläche der Sensorplatte 30 im Wesentlichen die Größe DIN A4 auf. Damit können gleichzeitig beide Hände bzw. beide Füße des Patienten auf die Auflagefläche gelegt werden. Die Auflagefläche ist um die Ausdehnung einer Einfassung im Rahmen des Kirliandignaose-Gerätes 10 kleiner als die Ausdehnung der Sensorplatte 30 selbst.In a plan view, the support surface of the
Die leitende Schicht 33 ist gerätinnenseitig wiederum von Schutzschicht 34 überzogen. Die Abschirmelektrode 40 ist leitend mit der Hochspannungseinheit 50 verbunden. Die umlaufende Abschirmelektrode 40 verringert das Entstehen von Störfeldern an den Rändern der Strom leitenden Schicht 33. Die erfindungsgemäße Sensorplatte 30 ermöglicht die Erzeugung eines sehr homogenen, elektromagnetischen Feldes als Vorraussetzung auswertbarer Kirlianfotos.The

Am Hochspannungsgerät 50 sind gemäß
Die Schaltung 60 selber kann über zwei weitere Anschlüsse fein abgestimmt werden. Zum einen ist ein erster Steueranschluss 53 für das Zehngangpotentiometer vorgesehen, mit dem die Zündspannung des Thyristors eingestellt werden kann. Darüber hinaus ist ein zweiter Steueranschluss 54 vorgesehen, mit dem der Teslatransformator HT durch Änderung der zugeschalteten Windungszahl steuerbar ist. Beide Steueranschlüsse 53, 54 sind vorzugsweise mit einem Rechner verbunden. Die Hochspannungseinheit ist erfindungsgemäß über Software rechnergesteuert.The
Die Sensorplatte 30 ist in Wellenlängenbereichen, die der Auswertung unterzogen werden sollen, insbesondere also im sichtbaren Licht, aber auch im UV- oder IR-Bereich, durchsichtig. Entsprechendes gilt für die leitende Schicht 33 und die äußere und innere Schutzschicht 31, 34. Es ist möglich, hinter der Sensorplatte 30, dem Patienten abgewandt, im Kirliandiagnose-Gerät 10 eingehaust, eine (nicht dargestellte) Digitalkamera anzuordnen, die innen auf die Sensorplatte 30 gerichtet ist. Dabei ist zu beachten, dass die Digitalkamera hoch genau auf die Sensorplatte ausgerichtet sein muss, da ihre Tiefenschärfe üblicherweise im Bereich nur eines Millimeters liegt und damit selbst geringste Verkippungen zu Unschärfen zumindest an den Bildrändern führen würden.The
Die Digitalkamera ermöglicht es, die entstehenden Fotos mit einem PC weiter zu verarbeiten und sogar über das Internet oder sonstige Netze zur Diagnose an einen entfernten Platz zu versenden.The digital camera makes it possible to further process the resulting photos with a PC and even send them to a remote location via the Internet or other networks for diagnosis.
Sowohl die Kamera als auch die Schaltung 60 sind über einen USB-Bus mit einer USB-II Schnittstelle eines Rechners verbunden und durch den Rechner steuerbar. Im Rechner ist eine Schnittstellenkarte VM110 vorgesehen, die mit einer Relaiskarte in Verbindung steht. Die Relaiskarte ist über den USB-Bus mit der Schaltung 60 verbunden.Both the camera and the

Zur Erzeugung leichter reproduzierbarer Bilder werden gleichzeitig alle Finger und alle Zehen des Patienten fotografiert. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass die Reproduzierbarkeit des Fotos durch die gleichzeitige Aufnahme der Vielzahl an Fingern und Zehen gemäß
