Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a magnetic therapy composite magnet and a magnetic therapy instrument, and more particularly to a magnetic therapy composite magnet composed of four identically shaped substantially rectangular parallelepiped magnets. The present invention relates to a magnetic therapeutic device in which a magnetic field is covered with a protective member and integrally coupled.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, magnets have been used for various purposes for the purpose of utilizing the attractive force or magnetism itself, but when a very large attractive force or magnetic force is not required, usually one magnet is used. When a large attracting force or magnetic force is required, or when a large attracting area or magnetic force acting area is required, one magnet cannot be used, and a plurality of magnets are used in combination. In this case, as a method of combining a plurality of magnets,
Normally, we make unit magnets of a certain size, and each one of these magnets N,
A method of assembling by arranging the S poles adjacent to each other alternately is used. When the required attraction force and the required magnetic force acting area are reached, they are combined and integrated by various methods and used as one magnet. Further, in this case, a device for facilitating magnetic action, adsorption, and desorption of the target object by constructing a necessary magnetic circuit by simultaneously using magnetically permeable materials such as iron, nickel, or alloys between unit magnets, etc. Has been done. With respect to these points, the applicant previously proposed a magnetic therapy device (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 63-111881 and 63-111882).

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, when a plurality of combined magnets produced by the above method are used as a set, the assembled magnets are checked while checking the N and S surfaces of each combined magnet. In particular, when the unit magnet is large or when the magnet is a rare earth magnet with a strong magnetic force, the weight and the attractive force repulsive force must be predicted, which is difficult to handle. It couldn't be dismantled and removable.

Further, even if the conventional single magnet is assembled by the above method, if the two magnets are handled without distinction, the repulsive force acts between the same kind of faces and the attraction force acts between the different kinds of faces depending on the direction of the faces. Naturally, this makes the assembly more difficult as the number of combinations increases. That is, when actually using
As described above, when a large attraction force is required or a wide magnetic force acting surface is required, the handling becomes more troublesome. In particular, when used for magnetic therapy using magnetism, magnets are often used as a pair or a set of a plurality of magnets in order to enhance the therapeutic effect. Since the magnets used at this time have a strong magnetic force or have a wide action area (contact surface) suitable for the affected area, unit magnets are lined up and combined or removed. Is stronger and more difficult to handle.

Also, when handling a magnetic therapy device, the larger the magnet is and the stronger the magnetic force becomes, the more it is heavy and the repulsive force or the attractive force is strong. Therefore, it has been desired to develop a treatment device magnet that can be easily handled.

In view of such a situation, the present invention eliminates the above-mentioned various drawbacks, is easy to handle such as assembling, disassembling, and removing, and is a result of repeated studies on a magnet for magnetic therapy capable of responding very flexibly to an object. When using a composite magnet in which four rectangular parallelepiped magnets of the same shape are combined by a specific method or a composite magnet composed of a plurality of composite magnets assembled, a pair or set of composite magnets can be used. The present invention has arrived at the present invention by knowing that handling is very easy because the particles are always adsorbed to each other without being repulsed no matter how they are brought into contact with each other.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In the composite magnet for magnetic therapy of the present invention, the N and S planes of four rectangular parallelepiped magnets of the same shape are alternately point-symmetrical around the center on a plane perpendicular to the magnetization direction. It consists of four identically shaped substantially rectangular magnets configured to form. Also, four magnets of the same shape, which are substantially rectangular parallelepiped, are configured so that the N and S surfaces of the four magnets of the same shape are parallel to each other on the plane perpendicular to the magnetization direction. The composite magnet is composed of a composite unit magnet and a plurality of composite unit magnets are combined to form a composite body of composite unit magnets.

In addition, the magnetic therapeutic device of the present invention has four rectangular parallelepiped magnets of the same shape arranged on the plane perpendicular to the magnetization direction so that the N and S planes are alternately point-symmetrical around the center. It is characterized in that the composite magnet composed of substantially rectangular parallelepiped magnets of the same shape is wholly or partly covered with a protective member and integrally coupled. Further, four identically shaped substantially rectangular parallelepiped magnets are formed so that the N and S planes of four identically shaped rectangular parallelepiped magnets are alternately point-symmetrical around the center on a plane perpendicular to the magnetization direction. The composite magnet is composed of a composite unit magnet, and a plurality of composite unit magnets obtained by combining a plurality of the composite magnets are covered with a protective member so as to be integrally combined.

The present invention will be described in detail. The magnetic therapeutic composite magnet of the present invention has four rectangular parallelepiped magnets N and S of the same shape arranged on a plane perpendicular to the magnetization direction so as to be alternately point-symmetrical around the center. Is a substantially rectangular parallelepiped composite magnet, and is a composite magnet composite composed of a plurality of composite unit magnets combined in a three-dimensional direction.

The composite magnet as the composite unit magnet for magnetic therapy of the present invention is composed of four magnets of the same shape, which are combined in a "square-shaped" manner with N and S planes as shown in FIG. Is a unit made by bonding four pieces. Further, it is also possible to make one cuboid magnet magnetized so that the finished product is substantially the same as the above, so as to have a point symmetry around the center.

That is, in the present invention, the compound magnet means four rectangular parallelepiped magnets having the same shape, and one rectangular parallelepiped magnet configured so that the N and S planes are alternately point-symmetrical around the center as described above. It is magnetized so as to be substantially point-symmetrical.

The composite magnet for magnetic therapy of the present invention is used not only as such a composite magnet, but also as a composite body of composite magnets in which a plurality of such composite magnets are combined as a composite unit magnet.

In the present invention, the unit magnet means four rectangular parallelepiped magnets having the same shape that form a composite magnet, and the composite unit magnet means one unit of composite magnet that forms a composite of composite magnets. Further, in the description of the present invention, the composite magnet and the like mean both the composite magnet and the composite body of the composite magnet.

When the composite magnet of the present invention is made up of a plurality of the same kind, for example, when two arbitrary composite magnets or the like in the set are taken out and the surfaces of the same kind and the same area are brought into contact with each other, the attractive force is always generated. Has a peculiar property that the repulsive force never works. That is, since the composite magnet or the like is a rectangular parallelepiped, each of the two composite magnets or the like has three kinds of surfaces, but the attracting force always works even if either of the surfaces having the same area is brought into contact with each other. Normally, it is common knowledge that magnets always have a surface to be attracted and a surface to be repelled. However, when the composite magnet etc. in the present invention is treated as one magnet, the composite magnets etc. are always attracted. The fact that it never repels is an amazing property that can be said to overturn conventional wisdom.

Here, a composite magnet of the same type means that two magnets are N,
The S-plane has the same point symmetry and is not a mirror image. On the other hand, the point symmetry of the N and S planes is reversed, so those that have a mirror image relationship are called heterogeneous composite magnets. When combined with the composite magnet or the like of the present invention to be used as a set, the surfaces having the same area can be assembled into a required size while contact-adsorbing the surfaces.

If the composite magnets for magnetic therapy of the present invention are composite magnets of the same type, the attraction force always works and the repulsion force does not work on any surface having the same area, but this principle is so difficult. Not a thing. For example, when two composite magnets of the same type composed of four homomorphic magnets according to the present invention are stacked in a plane perpendicular to the magnetizing direction, the front surface of one composite magnet is in contact with the back surface of the other composite magnet. However, since the N and S surfaces are always facing each other, they will be adsorbed.

Also, when the other composite magnet rotates and comes into contact, since the N and S planes are alternately arranged around the center, the same plane 180
Even if it is rotated by ゜, the N and S surfaces are the same as before rotation, so the N and S surfaces will always face each other regardless of the stacking method. Further, the other two types of surfaces are not perpendicular to the next orientation direction, but have the same N, S relationship, so that they are always adsorbed in the same manner when the same type of surfaces are brought into contact with each other.

However, since different types of composite magnets having a combination of four N and S in a mirror image relationship do not match as in the case described above and are attracted with a considerable deviation, the composite magnet of the present invention is used as a set. In this case, it is desirable to use only a combination of composite magnets of the same type.

Further, with this same kind of composite magnet as a unit, X,
Even in the case where a composite is formed by combining the three-dimensional directions of Y and Z, when the surfaces having the same area are arranged on the same plane, they are always the same kind and always adsorb.

As described above, since the composite magnet for magnetic therapy of the present invention has a unique property that it is always attracted and does not repel when they are of the same kind, when used in a magnetic therapy device that uses magnetism, the magnet has a symmetrical portion. The adsorption force, magnetic force, acting area, etc. can be freely adjusted according to the purpose, and handling such as assembling, disassembling, and removing becomes very convenient and easy.

The magnet used in the composite magnet for magnetic therapy of the present invention is not particularly limited in its type, and any commercially available magnet can be used, and ferrite magnets, alnico magnets, rare earth magnets, etc. are advantageous in normal times. Can be used. In particular, since rare earth magnets have a strong magnetic force, they can be advantageously used because they have the advantage of being able to reduce their shape. The size of the unit magnet is not particularly limited as long as it can be manufactured, and a small unit magnet may be used according to each application. However, if the size is too large, it is not suitable because the size of the assembly can be limited to the magnitude of the required magnetic force. Therefore, the size of several millimeters to ten and several centimeters is convenient.

There is no limitation on the size of one of the four unit magnets of the composite magnet for magnetic therapy of the present invention, and the treatment method may be determined appropriately. For example, when the target affected area is limited to a very small area, a composite magnet configured to be as small as possible is used. By doing so, even if the affected area is a little large, an appropriate number can be freely combined and used immediately according to the size, which is extremely convenient. Also, if the affected area requiring treatment is large, or if a magnet with a wide working surface is required, it can be used in an appropriate combination if made as several kinds of composite unit magnets having surfaces of the same area. The number used can be reduced. In any case, since the composite magnet and the like of the present invention form a plurality of magnetic circuits, it gives a stronger magnetic force and thus an attractive force than a single magnet having the same area. Conversely, in order to obtain the same magnetic force, the area can be reduced accordingly, which is economically advantageous.

The composite magnet for magnetic therapy of the present invention is composed of four unit magnets, which are combined and integrated. As a means for this, a method of fixing with an adhesive, a method of covering with a thin plate of a non-magnetic material such as stainless steel, aluminum and its alloys, copper and copper alloys, protection of plastic, rubber, leather, paper, woven cloth, etc. A method of coating and fixing as a member can be advantageously used.

Specific examples of plastic include polyethylene, polypropylene, vinyl chloride resin, polyester, polyamide, acrylic resin, polycarbonate, polyurethane, ABS resin and the like, and specific examples of rubber include natural rubber and butadiene-styrene rubber, butyl rubber, Examples thereof include synthetic rubber such as chloroprene rubber and silicone rubber.

Although the protective member can be used in various construction methods, an example of a method of using the non-magnetic material is a method of coating the entire composite magnet or the like. By coating, the composite magnet is reinforced to prevent damage during handling, and when used for magnetic treatment, it has the effect of softening the contact with the skin during treatment and facilitating the treatment operation. be able to. Various coating methods can be used as the coating method.
In addition to usual coating with liquid paint, when plastics is used as a protective member, it can be advantageously and beautifully coated by a fluidized dipping method using powder.

Further, it is possible to apply the coating using metal plating or composite plating. When coating composite magnets with non-magnetic materials such as stainless steel, aluminum, aluminum alloys, copper, copper alloys, etc., plastics, leather, paper, cloth, etc. It can be used by adhering or by making a casing, bag, etc. having an appropriate shape, and putting a composite magnet in it. It is desirable to make the contact surface as smooth as possible when two composite magnets are combined.

In addition, when configuring the composite magnet or the like of the present invention, in order to increase the magnetic flux density of the surface, or to reinforce the composite magnet,
A foil, a thin plate or the like of a magnetically permeable material such as iron, nickel, cobalt and their alloys may be interposed between the magnets constituting the composite magnet.
