JPS5935249Y2 - Inductor of low frequency treatment device - Google Patents

Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] This invention relates to a conductor for a low frequency treatment device.

Most conventional low-frequency therapy devices apply stimulation at a frequency of 1000 Hz or higher.

Since the frequency is relatively high L, the current density increases,
Since the part that is energized feels pain, the area of the conductor that is energized to the human body is made larger.

However, it is not possible to provide a treatment similar to acupuncture by applying intensive stimulation to the center of acupuncture points. /'i It is not possible to locally connect the current-carrying part of the conductor to a specific acupuncture point.

Furthermore, in recent years, low-frequency treatment devices that provide a stimulation similar to that of needle anesthesia, which perform treatment using a frequency lower than about 100 Hz, have been seen.

In this case, the size of the current-carrying part of the conductor to the human body needs to be made quite small in order to obtain a current density comparable to that of the low-frequency treatment device described above.

Because of its small diameter, it can provide stimulation similar to acupuncture, but there is a risk of removing acupuncture points.

In particular, it is easy to remove acupuncture points in areas such as the back where it is difficult to fix the position of the conductor by one person.

Furthermore, the conductors are fixed to the human body using adhesive tapes such as bands or bandages, but this is extremely troublesome, especially in hard-to-reach areas.

This idea was created in view of the above points, and the purpose is to scale the conductor of a low-frequency treatment device that can be used for multiple purposes by changing the size of the part that conducts electricity to the human body depending on the part of the body. It is something to do.

By forming current-carrying parts with different diameters on the conductive adhesive material surrounding the electrode, this idea is useful when performing pine surgery on areas where it is difficult to detect acupuncture points or where it is difficult to set the conductor on the human body. The large-diameter current-carrying part prevents the risk of dislodging the acupuncture points.In addition, the large-diameter current-carrying part can be used for pine surgery even when used simply as a rehabilitation activity to recover motor function, and the acupoints are removed. When stimulating specific acupuncture points in areas that are crowded or have large changes in ups and downs, a small-diameter current-carrying part can be used to bring it close to the local area. In addition, by forming the current-carrying part on the surface of the conductive adhesive member, the current-carrying part can be fixed to the affected area very easily without using a band or tape. .

An embodiment of this invention will be explained based on the drawings.

1 is the main body of the low frequency treatment device, this main body 1VC//'i,
Dial 2 for turning the power on and off and varying the volume of the low frequency generator (not shown);
, a display section 3 for OFF display and volume display;
An output jack 4 for the low frequency generator, a dial 5 for varying the frequency of the low frequency generator, a display 6 for displaying the frequency, and the like are provided.

Next, a cover 7 for the negative side opening is made of a material such as rubber.

Conductive adhesive members 8 made of a rubber-based material are housed in these covers 7, and electrodes 9 made of conductive rubber as a main material are wrapped inside these conductive adhesive members 8.
For example, each pole is connected to a frequency generating section via a lead wire 10, a plug 11, and an output jack 4.

Thus, on one side of the conductive adhesive member 8, there is a 5 mm to 30 mm diameter that protrudes from the opening 12 formed in the cover 7.
A small-diameter current-carrying portion 13 of mm is formed, and a large-diameter current-carrying portion 14 of 50 mm to 100 mm is formed on the other side.

In such a configuration, the plug 11 is connected to the output jack 4.
the current-carrying part 1 exposed from each cover 7.
4 or 13 is pressed against the affected part 15 of the human body.

By forming the current-carrying parts 13, 14//i on the conductive adhesive member 8, it can be fixed to the affected area 15 very easily just by pressing.

In this state, the affected area 15 can be stimulated by operating the dials 2 and 5 and setting the volume and frequency.

When performing pine surgery on affected areas 15 where there is a risk of removing acupuncture points, such as areas where it is difficult to detect acupuncture points or areas that are difficult to reach, such as on the back,
Alternatively, when the device is simply used as part of rehabilitation activities to restore motor function, a large current-carrying portion 14 is fixed to the affected area 15 as shown in FIG.

On the other hand, when performing pine surgery on an area where acupoints are easy to detect, where a large number of acupoints are concentrated, or where there are large changes in ups and downs, the small energized part 13 is fixed to the affected area to stimulate specific acupoints. Even in areas with large changes in ups and downs, the current-carrying part 13 can be connected to the affected area 1! M: Can be in close contact.

In addition, the small-diameter current-carrying portion 13 can provide stimulation to the affected area similar to that of needle therapy.

Furthermore, the stimulation changes not only depending on the set values of the volume and frequency and the selection of the current-carrying parts 13 and 14, but also depending on which pole of the low-frequency generating part it is connected to.

Therefore, even stronger stimulation can be applied to the affected area 15IK by applying the small-diameter current-carrying portion 13 of the electrode 9 connected to the negative electrode to the affected area 15IK.

Since this device is configured as described above, it can be used to treat affected areas where it is difficult to detect acupuncture points, where it is difficult to position the energized part, where acupoints are crowded together or where acupressure points are located in areas with large changes in the ups and downs of the human body, etc. You can select a large or small diameter energizing part depending on the area, and it can be used for rehabilitation activities such as recovering motor function, or when applying strong stimulation similar to acupuncture, or when different treatment methods are required. It is possible to select an appropriate current-carrying part, which allows it to be used for multiple purposes.Furthermore, since the current-carrying part is formed on the outer surface of the conductive adhesive member, it is extremely easy to press it onto the affected area. This has effects such as being able to fix the current-carrying part to the affected area.
