Description

Detailed Description of the Invention [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a conductor fixing device and a conductor fixing method for an electric and/or magnetic treatment device that applies electrical and/or magnetic stimulation or energy to the human body. . A conductor consists of an electrode and/or a ta pole. The present invention relates to a conductor fixing device and a conductor fixing method for fixing a plurality of conductors to a predetermined region of the trunk such as the thoracic back region or abdominal dorsal region or the extremities.

[Prior art] When applying electrical and/or magnetic therapy to the rearing area, abdomen, back, etc., the conductor is suctioned and adhered.

Or it was attached to the patient with a fixed device. Suction guides leave suction marks after treatment, which is uncomfortable, and high suction pressure can cause pain during treatment. On the other hand, adhesive conductors can cause itching on the skin in some cases, and can become dirty and unsanitary after being used several times. Regarding the fixing device, there was a problem that the guide could not be sufficiently attached to the rearing area, abdomen and back, and limbs due to the patient's physique or deformation due to plastic surgery, and improvements were required.

[Objective of the Invention] The object of the present invention is that it is easy to fix and attach to the breeding part of the human body, the trunk such as the abdomen and back, and the extremities, and that it is possible to fix a plurality of conductors to a predetermined part, and in some cases, to It is an object of the present invention to provide an adjustable guide fixing device and a fixing method so that it can be fixed to a predetermined site according to the physique of a patient.

[Structure of the Invention] As a result of intensive research to achieve the above object, the present inventor has developed an elastic arc-shaped body having two seating limbs and two seating bodies each carrying one conductor. We have discovered that using a conductor fixture is very effective and have arrived at the conductor fixture and fixing method of the present invention.

That is, the present invention provides a conductor fixture having an elastic arc-shaped body having two seat legs, a seat provided on each of the seat legs and supporting at least one conductor, and a conductor fixing device having such a conductor. This is a method of fixing a conductor using a child fixture, in which the pressing force between the conductors is 300 to 1500G.

The present invention will be explained in more detail below using the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows one embodiment of the conductor fixture of the present invention, which includes an elastic arc-shaped body (1) having two seat support limbs (3a, 3b) and two conductors each carrying one conductor (11+). Sitting body (12a
, 12b), and the seat leg (3) has a long hole (4) into which the seat body (12+) is inserted.

Furthermore, a plurality of receiving grooves (5) are attached to the peripheral edge of the elongated hole of the seat receiving limb (3) as required. FIG. 2 shows one embodiment of the seat body Oz of the conductor fixture of the present invention, in which the seat body has a flat plate portion 0.
3 and a shaft part 051, the base of the shaft part 09 is fitted with a receiving groove part (5) attached to the periphery of the elongated hole (4) of the seat supporting limb part (3a, 3b) as shown in FIG. Obtain one or more convex portions 0
4, and furthermore, it is desirable that the seat body has a movable terminal (goods) on the opposite side of the flat plate part 03. Furthermore, if necessary, an elastic member is provided between the movable terminal socket of the seat body 0z and the receiving ring (g) for fixing the convex part (b) of the seat body and the receiving groove part (5) in a compatible state. It has a mouth, e.g. a spring. Here, it is practically preferable to provide two pairs of convex portions a of different sizes so as to change the distance between the conductors. The seat support is usually provided with one seat body, but may include two or more seats in some cases.

The conductor fixture of the present invention can be obtained by assembling the seat body 02) carrying the conductor Ov as shown in FIG. 2 with the elastic arc-shaped body (1) as shown in FIG. Usually 1 for Naoza body
However, in some cases, for example, two conductors may be carried.

The conductor that is the object of the present invention is not particularly limited, and may be any device that electrically and/or magnetically stimulates or provides energy to a living body, particularly a human body. As the electrical treatment conductor, a sponge conductor, a conductor with a non-woven fabric, etc. can be used in a hydrated manner. In low-frequency therapy devices, interference low-frequency therapy devices, and potential therapy devices, which are electrical therapy devices, multiple conductors are connected to the breeding area, the trunk of the body such as the abdomen and back, or the It is fixed to a predetermined part of the extremity and is loaded on the human body. that time,
The conductor fixture of the present invention is effective in safely and stably supplying the required current from the conductor to a predetermined location.

FIG. 3 shows the relationship between the inter-conductor pressing force and the inter-conductor distance in an embodiment of the method using the conductor fixture of the present invention. That is, this is an example of a method for fixing a conductor to a living body part, and when performing electric current therapy between a living body part, in this example, a rearing part, at least one It is necessary to fix the conductor with a pushing force of 300G.

On the other hand, a pressing force exceeding 1500G is undesirable because it is too tight and the human body may feel tenderness. Depending on the type and size of the conductor and the predetermined part of the human body, a preferable range of pressing force between the conductors can be selected from the range of 300 to 1500G. In the rearing section, a range of 500 to 1200 G is more preferable.

In addition, 1G is also called 1g weight, 1g weight 9゜1/5ec2
means. Here, 9o is the gravitational acceleration, usually 9
It has a value of 80.

The conductor fixture of the present invention can be processed and molded from a metal material, a resin material, or the like. Processing and moldability.

From the viewpoint of operability and hygiene, synthetic resins, polycarbonate, ABS resins, polypropylene, etc. are preferable. The shape and material of the arcuate portion of the elastic arcuate body (1) exerts the conductor pressing force, but there is no limitation to its selection, design, and processing. Sitting body (
2) is processed and molded in the same way.

Regarding the elastic member, for example, a synthetic spring, a coil, or a leaf spring can be used as a spring, but the shape and material are not limited.

The elongated hole (4) and receiving groove (5) of the seat support limb (3) of the elastic arc-shaped body (1), and the convex portion ■ of the seat body 0'2J cooperate to
It acts so that the distance between the conductors and the pushing force can be adjusted depending on the physical differences of the human body. In FIG. 3, A, B, and C are examples in which the seat body is inserted and fixed in the receiving grooves in the upper, middle, and lower parts of the elongated hole, respectively. Also, subscript 1.”

L is an example in which the types of convex portions are high and low, respectively.

In these examples, when the inter-conductor distance is in the range of 150 to 250 shoes, the inter-conductor pushing force can be selected from a wide range of combinations of 300 to 1500 G, and used for treatment.

[Effects of the present invention] The conductor fixing device and the fixing method of the present invention allow the conductor to be attached to arbitrary or predetermined parts of the trunk, such as the breeding part, abdominal dorsal region, etc., and limbs, regardless of differences in physique and prescription conditions. Can be fixed easily and stably. Transcutaneous electrical stimulation therapy, low frequency therapy, interference low frequency therapy.

In high frequency therapy, electric potential therapy, magnetic therapy, etc., a plurality of electric or magnetic conductors can be freely and stably fixed, allowing effective and safe treatment.
