Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (a) Industrial application field The present invention relates to a treatment guide unit in a low frequency treatment device.

(b) Conventional technology and its problems Conventionally, low-frequency treatment devices have used a counter electrode conductor and a treatment electrode connected to an output terminal as treatment conductors, which are crimped to the treatment area of the human body via a compress. A current-carrying circuit is formed between the counter electrode and the treatment electrode conductor to send low-frequency electrical energy through the skin to the human body, and the electrical stimulation affects the metabolism of living cells to perform treatment. Since the counter electrode electrode and the treatment electrode electrode are each separate and independent, during treatment, a belt etc. is required to fix both electrodes to the treatment area of the body, and it is difficult to attach them to the body. The operation was complicated.

An object of the present invention is to provide a treatment guide unit in a low frequency treatment device that can solve the above problems.

(C) Means for solving the problem The present invention consists of a base fabric, a plurality of treatment guides and compresses placed in a polymerized state on the underside of the base fabric, and the mounting base fabric and treatment guides. and a cover that integrally covers the compress band, and a plurality of treatment guides are arranged at intervals in the vertical and horizontal directions on the lower surface of the base fabric.
The lower surface of the compress band is made to be able to come into contact with the treatment area of the body, and depressed grooves are provided in the vertical and horizontal directions to reduce the thickness of the compress band in the groove portions. The present invention relates to a treatment guide unit in a low frequency treatment device, characterized in that the position of the treatment guide is divided, and a division groove formed by the recessed groove is used as a current buffer section.

(E) Functions and Effects With the configuration described above, the present invention has the following effects.

By integrating the base fabric, the plurality of treatment guides, and the poultice band, it can be easily attached to the body, and complications during treatment can be eliminated.

Current buffering that allows the outer surface of the compress band to come into contact with the treatment area of the body, and also provides depressed grooves in the vertical and horizontal directions to reduce the thickness of the compress band in the groove portions and divides the treatment electrodes vertically and horizontally. By forming a section, it is possible to minimize the amount of current flowing between the treatment conductors through the compress band in a short-circuited state, and to maximize the current flowing to the treatment section of the body, thereby achieving the maximum therapeutic effect. I can do it.

By screwing them together, the treatment guides are arranged on the lower surface of the heater 5 in two rows each in the vertical and horizontal directions, and are fixed to the respective opposing rectangular metal plates 10.

In addition, this treatment guide has a width of approximately 3 cm and a height of 5 cm.
The width of the separation between the opposing edges of the treatment guides located on the left and right is approximately 5 to 7 cm, and the width of separation between the opposing edges of the treatment guides located above and below is approximately 4 to 7 cm.
It is set to be 6 cm.

Further, four cords 21 are wired in the base cloth 4, and the tips of the cords 21 are inserted into the cord insertion holes 13 of the predetermined metal plate 1,
It is welded to the center of the upper surface of a predetermined treatment guide, and
The base end of the book cord is connected to the connector 22 disposed on the edge of the base fabric 4 together with the end of the heater wire 16.
The connector 22 is configured to be able to engage with another connector 23 provided at the tip of the cable 2, so that the treatment conductor is energized from the treatment device 1, and the treatment The conductor is configured to be energized.
