Description

The present invention utilizes the fact that when a voltage is applied to a living body, the current flowing to the position of the living pot is larger than the current flowing to a position other than the other pot, that is, the electric resistance of the pot portion is small. The present invention relates to a single code type vase searcher for searching a living body vase.

Vases have some differences from the surrounding skin, one of which may be low electrical resistance. Almost all the vase searchers use this property to search for a place where the electrical resistance of the skin is low, and the principle of the present invention is also the same.
All conventional vase searchers consist of an indifferent electrode, a probe, an ammeter or a current sensing device, with the indifferent electrode held in the patient's hand, the end of the probe applied to the patient's skin, an ammeter, etc. By searching for places with low skin electrical resistance. In this case, a plurality of cords for connecting these components are required.

By the way, the conventional vase searcher for acupuncture is an indifferent electrode, a probe, and an ammeter that are electrically connected to each other by a cord. Therefore, the improvement of such a situation is strongly demanded not only by the patient but also by the practitioner. In addition, a plurality of cords for electrically connecting the ammeter and each component are necessary, and these cords often become a hindrance during the treatment, and may cause a failure due to disconnection.
