Abstract

PURPOSE: To provide an electromagnetic therapeutic device which is small-sized and cheap, and can alleviate stiff shoulders or body pain. CONSTITUTION: This electromagnetic therapeutic device is formed in such a manner that copper 2 is arranged around a magnet 1, and aluminum 3 is arranged to be fixed in the center of N polar face. The N polar face of the magnet which is thus constituted is attached to skin so as to be contact with the skin, thereby, electric current runs between copper 2 and aluminum 3, and the electric current is repulsed by the N pole of the magnet 1 and reaches to deep inside the body, thereby stiff shoulders and body pain are alleviated. This electromagnetic therapeutic device has also a synergistic effect with therapy using magnetic line of force which has been previously performed.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Conventionally, there are many treatment devices using magnets, low-frequency treatment devices, etc. for treatment of stiff shoulders and body pain, and treatment using them is widely performed. In addition, there is also a method of treating the body by sending an electric current directly to the body, which is effective. However, the conventional devices are not sufficiently satisfactory in that the device is large, the price is high, the therapeutic effect is small, and the medical treatment cannot be performed without going to the hospital. The present invention was conceived for the purpose of being small in size, inexpensive, easy to use, and having a great therapeutic effect. An electric current is generated between two different metals placed in the electrolyte. Human body fluid is a type of electrolyte, and the human body conducts electricity. It is well known that the electric current is the movement of ▲-▼ electrons, and the ▲-▼ electrons are attracted by the south pole of the magnet and repelled by the north pole. The present invention utilizes those properties. The following is a description with reference to the drawings. (A) Attaching the metal (2) around the magnet (1) (b) Attaching the metal (3) to the center of the magnet (1) on the N pole side.

[Various combinations of metals (2) and (3) are conceivable, but for convenience, (2) is copper and (3) is aluminum in this drawing] The present invention has the above-described configuration. This is (3)
Copper (2) and aluminum (3) when the aluminum-coated surface is applied with a bandage so that it touches the human skin.
An electric current flows between the two, but since the magnet surface in contact with the skin is the N pole, the electric current repels the magnetic force and reaches deep inside the body. This provides a greater therapeutic effect than when the surface of the body is energized. Further, since the magnetism acts on the body like the conventional magnetic therapy device, a synergistic effect of the two exerts an unprecedented great therapeutic effect. Thus, an electromagnetic therapy device which is small in size, inexpensive, easy to use and has a great therapeutic effect was invented. The present invention is similar in structure to a conventional magnetic therapy device, but the conventional one uses a magnet to apply a magnetism to the body, while it uses a magnet to change the direction of electric current. Therefore, the function is completely different. It should be noted that various combinations and structures can be considered for the combination of this magnet and two kinds of metals depending on the application.
Further, the magnet may be replaced with an electromagnet, and even if two kinds of metals are made the same metal and an electric current is supplied from the outside using each of them as an electrode, the effect does not change.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Conventionally, there are many treatment devices using magnets, low-frequency treatment devices, etc. for treatment of stiff shoulders and body pain, and treatment using them is widely performed. In addition, there is also a method of treating the body by sending an electric current directly to the body, which is effective. However, the conventional devices are not sufficiently satisfactory in that the device is large, the cost is high, the therapeutic effect is small, and the medical treatment cannot be performed without going to the hospital. The present invention was conceived for the purpose of being small in size, inexpensive, easy to use, and having a great therapeutic effect. An electric current is generated between two different metals placed in the electrolyte. Human body fluid is a type of electrolyte, and the human body conducts electricity. It is well known that the electric current is the movement of ▲-▼ electrons, and the ▲-▼ electrons are attracted by the south pole of the magnet and repelled by the north pole. The present invention utilizes those properties. A description will be given below with reference to the drawings. (A) A metal (2) and a metal (3) are attached at both ends of the magnet (1) or at distant positions on the N pole face side. [Metal (2) (3)
Various combinations are conceivable, but for convenience, in this drawing, (2) is copper and (3) is aluminum.] The present invention has the above-described configuration. This is the magnet N
When pasted with a bandage so that the pole side is in contact with human skin, an electric current flows between the copper (2) and the aluminum (3), but since the magnet side in contact with the skin is the N pole, the electric current is Repels the magnetic force and reaches deep inside the body. This provides a greater therapeutic effect than when the body surface is energized. or,
Since the magnetic field acts on the body like a conventional magnetic therapy device, the synergistic effect of the two exerts an unprecedented therapeutic effect. Thus, an electromagnetic therapy device which is small in size, inexpensive, easy to use and has a great therapeutic effect was invented. Description of (Fig. 2) (b) Attach electrodes (5) and electrodes (6) at both ends of the magnet (4) or at distant positions on the N pole face side, and connect the electrodes (7) and (8) respectively. Connect it to the external power source (low frequency treatment device, etc.) in (9) with an electric wire.
This is because the one shown in Fig. 1 uses the current due to the potential difference between the metal (2) and the metal (3), while the one shown in Fig. 2 has the same therapeutic effect while supplying the current from the outside. Is what you get. The present invention exerts a great therapeutic effect by using it as an electrode of a low-frequency therapeutic device which has been widely used in the past. This invention is similar in structure to a conventional magnetic therapy device, but the conventional one uses a magnet to exert a magnetism on the body, while it uses a magnet to change the direction of electric current. , It tries to treat by applying an electric current to the deep part of the body, and its function is completely different. Note that various combinations and structures of this magnet and two kinds of metals are conceivable, and the effect does not change even if the magnet is changed to an electromagnet.
