The present invention relates to a magnetic therapy apparatus for performing magnetic therapy by extending the magnetic field over the entire range of the human body.

The applicant of the present invention has proposed a magnetic therapy apparatus formed by flexibly connecting a plurality of cases in series, each receiving a solenoid having a magnetic pole face adapted in the same direction in Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication No. Hei 3-122853. When such a magnetic therapy device is installed around a diseased part of the human body, and then A.C (AC) current flows through the solenoid of each case, various symptoms such as stiffness are alleviated. Moreover, such a magnetic therapy device generates vibration and heat due to the current flowing through the solenoid, thereby providing a massage effect to the human body as well as a warming effect.

However, such a conventional magnetic therapy device is configured such that the case containing the solenoid can be connected in a line, so that the effective range of the magnetic field is limited to a narrow area even though the device is installed to be wound around the human body.

In addition to the magnetic treatment device of the Iwatak type, a magnetic therapy cushion mat produced by magnetizing a cushioning material containing magnetic powder has also been proposed. When lying on such a cushion mat, a direct current magnetic field is generated in the entire cushion mat, and the magnetic field acting on the human body is wide, whereas the magnetic field from such a permanently magnetized cushion mat is insufficient in density and thus the cushion mat is magnetic. (Iv) Lack of sufficient effect of treatment, magnetic density decreases with time, and mat cannot be used for a long time. Moreover, the cushion does not generate vibration and heat, and no massage effect or poultice effect can be obtained.

An object of the present invention is to perform an effective self-treatment by acting the alternating magnetic field generated in the solenoid over the whole body of the human body, and additionally to obtain a massage and poultice effect by vibration and heat in the solenoid.

The magnetic therapy apparatus of the present invention comprises a plurality of magnetic field generators arranged in parallel on a mounting support with magnetic pole surfaces aligned in line with the mounting support, wherein each magnetic field generator has a plurality of cases each receiving a solenoid therein. It is designed to flexibly connect the magnetic poles working in the same direction in a row.

According to the present invention, the magnetic pole faces are arranged in two dimensions, and thus the range of the magnetic field acting on the human body is widened and a significant effect of magnetic therapy is expected.

Moreover, the magnetic field is generated by flowing an electric current in the solenoid, so that the magnetic field density can be further strengthened compared to the DC magnetic field of the permanently magnetized cushion seat, and not only does the problem of non-magnetization occur over time, Therefore, the effect of magnetic therapy can be further improved. In addition, vibration and heat are generated by flowing a current in the solenoid, so that the massage and poultice effects as well as the effects of magnetic therapy can be obtained over the entire range.

In addition, the cases of the respective magnetic field generators are flexibly connected to each other, the cases are arranged along the contour of the mounting support, only the required number can be mounted according to the area of the mounting support.
