A stimulation generating unit (24) for generating a pulsed micro current in the insertion housing (111); A detection unit (25) for detecting a stimulation state; And a battery 26 for power supply. In addition, the sensing electrodes 113a and 113b may be disposed at appropriate positions on the circumferential surface of the insertion housing 111. The insertion housing 111 can be made of a suitable shape and material that can be inserted into the vagina of a woman and the electrode units 112a and 112b can be made to contact the human body with the insertion housing 111 inserted . The electrode units 112a and 112b may be arranged to extend along the longitudinal direction of the insertion housing 111 with a constant width on the outer circumferential surface of the insertion housing 111. [ The electrode units 112a and 112b may be formed in a plate shape so as to face each other and may be formed so as to increase the number of possible human contact parts. And the electrode units 112a and 112b may be connected to the stimulus generating unit 24. [

The stimulus generation unit 24 can generate pulse-like minute currents to flow through the human body by the electrode units 112a and 112b. The magnitude of the generated fine current can be controlled, and the pulse generation period can be adjusted. Also, the voltage may be reversed in the electrode units 112a and 112b. Specifically, the voltage may be reversed for a predetermined period of time after the pulse of a predetermined magnitude is generated for a predetermined period of time at a predetermined period. And the direction of current flow in the electrode units 112a and 112b may be changed by voltage inversion. Thereafter, a constant-sized pulse can be generated again at a predetermined cycle.

Each of the sensing electrodes 113a and 113b may be formed to be in contact with the human body and may be disposed in a plate shape or other suitable position on the circumferential surface of the insertion housing 111 like the electrode units 112a and 112b. The current flowing through the sensing electrodes 113a and 113b can be controlled in two ways. First, the sensing electrodes 113a and 113b are controlled so that a relatively large microcurrent flows through the electrode units 112a and 112b, as compared with the microcurrent flowing through the electrode units 112a and 112b. And the current flowing through the sensing electrodes 113a and 113b may be opposite to the flow of the minute current. By the flow of current through the sensing electrodes 113a and 113b in this manner, the user senses that the urinary incontinence treatment apparatus is in an operating state. For this purpose, the current flows through the sensing electrodes 113a and 113b intermittently or irregularly. The sensing electrodes 113a and 113b may be disposed at various positions of the insertion housing 111 and the present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments.

The state of the human body can be detected before or during the operation of the treatment device 11, and the detection unit 25 can be disposed inside the insertion housing 111 for this purpose. The temperature, humidity, leakage current, or pressure can be detected by the detection unit 25. And the detection information detected by the detection unit 25 is transmitted to the smart phone and can be used for the formation of the operational setting data. It can also be used as a tool for verifying the abnormality of the body or the therapeutic effect. Various sensors for detecting the state of the body can be disposed in the insertion housing 111 and the present invention is not limited to the embodiments shown.

As described above, the treatment device 11 may be operated by a battery 26, and the battery 26 may be a rechargeable secondary battery.

A control unit can be installed inside the treatment device 11, and a plurality of operation data can be stored. And, when the switch is operated, the treatment device 11 can be activated based on the operation data, and connection with the smartphone can be detected. If a smartphone is detected, relevant information can be sent to the smartphone. On the other hand, if the smartphone is not detected, it is operated according to preset conditions, and the result data according to the operation can be stored. The resultant data may include, for example, information about applied operating data, operating time, human body information during operation, and whether or not result data is transmitted. When the therapeutic device 11 is connected to the smartphone, the result data may be transmitted to the smart phone and stored in the management database.

The microcurrent is of a size that helps the body's physiological activity without damaging the human body. However, due to an operation error of the urinary incontinence treatment device 11, a current of a magnitude that can damage the human body may temporarily flow. Therefore, there is a need for a means capable of preventing an excessive amount of current from flowing temporarily.

Further, by measuring the pressure applied to the elastic layers 222a and 222b, the pressure applied to the human body by the conductive layers 221a and 221b can be measured and adjusted.

The sensing electrodes 113a and 113b may be independently connected to the stimulus generating unit 24 and the pulse generation period or pulse size by the sensing electrodes 113a and 113b may be predetermined or set by a smart phone or a remote control .

The contact pressure of the electrode units 112a and 112b or the sensing electrodes 113a and 113b is measured by the contact pressure regulating unit 15 while the contact pressure of the electrode units 112a and 112b or the sensing electrodes 113a and 113b is Lt; / RTI > Specifically, the conductive layers 221a and 221b may be made to move relative to the elastic layers 222a and 222b. The expansion and contraction layers 222a and 222b are fixed to the inner frame and the movement of the conductive layers 221a and 221b can be induced by increasing the volume of the elastic layers 222a and 222b. Alternatively, the volume change layer 281 may be disposed between the conductive layers 221a and 221b and the elastic layers 222a and 222b.
