Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily perform treatment in a family, by mounting display lamps such as light emitting diodes to the effective spot of the face picture drawn on a case and successively moving the display lamps each time when a predetermined time is elapsed to allow the same to light and displaying the contact region of a conductive element. CONSTITUTION:When one of light emitting diodes 12c is allowed to light to indicate the kinds of a conductive element to be used, a light emitting diode 12a is allowed to light to indicate the position where the conductive element must be mounted. When the indication of the conductive element to be used is a clip like conductive element 13b, a terminal pin 13d is utilized to insert said conductive element 13b in a conductive element insert port 8. Subsequently, when a current supply start switch 7 is operated, a rectangular wave signal is applied to the conductive element 13b to start the stimulation of the optic nerve. Further, an output control volume 5 is operated to gradually raise output and setting may be performed at a place where a light stimulus is felt. By this method, the conductive element is brought into contact with an effective spot while a display lamp is observed to make it possible to accurately stimulate the optic nerve and, therefore, an eye disease can be certainly treated.

[Conventional technology and its problems]

Traditionally, this type of electrical treatment device for eye diseases has been used in eye clinics to treat eye fatigue and pseudomyopia, but the operation and treatment of this device must be done by a skilled person such as a doctor or assistant. Ta.

One reason for this is that it is difficult to determine the procedure for treatment using an electric therapy device and the location to which the conductor should be applied.

In other words, the probe must be placed in contact with the part called the acupuncture point where the optic nerve is to be stimulated, but it is difficult for the average person to judge this acupuncture point, making it impossible to properly stimulate the optic nerve. It has been difficult for ordinary people to receive treatment at home because of the need for order.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems.The present invention uses an indicator light to indicate the area where the conductor comes into contact, and the display of the indicator light changes sequentially at predetermined intervals. The method is to apply a low-frequency rectangular wave signal to a desired point on the face, stimulate the optic nerve, and treat the eye. In this electric therapy device, a picture of a person's face is drawn on the front panel of the case in which the circuit that generates the rectangular wave signal is housed, and a treatment point (where the conductor should be brought into contact) is drawn. (b) An electric therapy device is provided with an indicator light such as a light emitting diode, and this indicator light is turned on at a desired time to indicate the contact area of the conductor.

[Function] The electric therapy device of the present invention has an indicator light such as a light emitting diode attached to the acupuncture point part of the picture of a face drawn on the case, and the indicator light is sequentially turned on at predetermined time intervals to provide guidance. By displaying the contact area of the child, anyone at home can perform treatment based on the lighting of the indicator light.

Further, the conductor 13b shown in FIG. 2(b) is a clip-shaped conductor, and is used by being held and attached to the earlobe. Note that a terminal pin 13d inserted into the conductor insertion port 8 is connected to each of the conductors 13a and 13b via a lead wire 13c.

Further, the shape of the conductor is not limited to the shape described above, and may be of a pasting type, for example.

Next, the block diagram of FIG. 3 will be explained.

A power source 14 is a battery housed in the battery compartment la of the case 1, and supplies power to each circuit. A high voltage circuit 15 boosts the voltage from the power supply 14 and supplies the high voltage to an output circuit to be described later.

Start/stop circuit 2
A switching circuit 24 alternately switches and outputs the I Hz rectangular wave signal for 18 seconds and the 40 Hz rectangular wave signal for 2 seconds during the 30 minutes from the switching circuit 23.

A polarity switching circuit 28 reverses the polarity of the output rectangular wave signals of Hz/18 seconds and 40 Hz/2 seconds every output time (6 minutes) from the timer 26; This is done by using a waveform adjustment circuit that adjusts the pulse width of a 40Hz rectangular wave signal and adjusting the waveform adjustment volume 10 shown in FIG.

2a and 12b; 31 is a melody generating circuit that transmits a melody by turning on the melody transmitting volume 9; and 32 is a speaker that emits the melody signal from the melody generating circuit 31.

Next, to explain the operation based on the above configuration, first,
When the power switch is turned on by operating the output adjustment volume 5, the light emitting diode 12c is lit to indicate the type of conductor to be used, and the light emitting diode 12a is lit to indicate the position where the conductor should be attached. . Now, since the instruction to use the conductor is the clip-shaped conductor 13b, insert it into the conductor insertion port 8 using the terminal pin 13d, and since the position where the conductor is attached is the earlobe, use the clip-shaped conductor 13b. The shaped conductor 13b is attached to the earlobe.

Next, when the energization start switch 7 is operated, the circuit shown in FIG. 3 is operated, a rectangular wave signal is applied to the conductor 13b, and stimulation of the optic nerve is started. Also, operate the output adjustment volume 5 to gradually increase the output and set it to a point where you feel a light stimulation.

That is, when the energization start switch 7 is operated, the oscillation circuit 16 starts oscillating.
The 0 minute timer 18 operates and sends an output to the switching circuit 23 via the start/stop circuit. On the other hand, the counter 21 outputs a rectangular wave signal of IHz to the switching circuit 23 via the frequency dividing circuit 17, and the oscillation circuit 22 also operates.
A 0 Hz rectangular wave signal is output to the switching circuit 23. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4(a), from the switching circuit 23, I Hz
A rectangular wave signal of 40 Hz is output for 16 seconds, followed by a 40 Hz rectangular wave signal for 4 seconds, and so on. Here, 2
The reason why rectangular wave signals of two different frequencies were used is because if rectangular wave signals of the same frequency were continuously applied to the human body, the body would become accustomed to these frequencies and would feel weak and unpleasant as a stimulus.

The two types of rectangular wave signals from the switching circuit 23 are amplified by the output circuit 24, and then outputted to the conductor 13b via the polarity switching circuit 27 and applied to the human body as a stimulus.

This stimulates the optic nerve and performs various eye treatments.

In the above operation, when the energizing buzzer switch 11 is turned on, the buzzer 25 is operated by the output from the output circuit 24, that is, it sends out sounds of I Hz and 40 Hz. Further, when the melody output volume 9 is operated, the melody generation circuit 31 is operated and predetermined music is emitted from the speaker 32.

The above-mentioned IHz (16 seconds) and 40Hz (4 seconds) are repeatedly output, and when 6 minutes according to the timer 26 have elapsed, the polarity switching circuit 27 is activated and the polarity is reversed as shown in FIG. 4(b). output.

When this polarity switching is performed, the light emitting diode 12d that has been displaying 10 is turned off, and the light emitting diode 12d that is displaying - is lit.

Note that polarity switching is because stimulation to the head needs to be performed symmetrically with the face as the center.

Furthermore, when the waveform adjustment volume 10 is operated during the treatment, the IHz rectangular wave signal changes as shown in FIG. If appropriate adjustment is made, the therapeutic effect can be increased.

When the above operations are repeated for 30 minutes, the output of the 30 minute timer 18 is stopped, so all the above operations are stopped. Therefore, the operator removes the terminal pin 13d of the conductor 13b from the conductor insertion port 8, and then operates the selection switch 6.

As a result, the light emitting diode 12 pointing to the conductor 13a
c is lit, insert the terminal pin 13d of the conductor 13a into the conductor insertion port 8. Further, since one of at least one pair of light emitting diodes 12b indicating a treatment point is lit, the operator brings the conductor 13a into contact with the part of his/her face that corresponds to the lit part. Then, the energization start switch 6
When you operate IH, the same operation as described above
Square wave signals of z and 4011z are applied to the optic nerve via the conductor 12a. In this case, the 30 second timer 19
operates, the light-emitting diode 12b that was first displayed is turned off in 30 seconds, and after 30 seconds, the other pair of light-emitting diodes 12b are turned on, so the operator can adjust the position corresponding to the lighted light-emitting diode 12b. Move the conductor 13a to the position. Once such operations are completed, all operations are completed, all of the light emitting diodes 12b are turned off, and the operation of the buzzer 25 is also stopped.

Incidentally, the light emitting diodes 12b are sequentially turned on via a ring counter 29 and a matrix circuit 30.

Furthermore, no polarity switching is performed during the 30 second sequential treatment.
