In recent years, as the diet has become westernized, obesity has rapidly increased, leading to the greatest harm to public health and beauty. Various dietary programs and ultrasonic obesity treatment apparatuses have been developed and widely used for treating this problem.

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a non-invasive method for the treatment of cancer cells by selectively coagulating the internal organs and destroying cancer cells. However, in the United States, (Liposonix) equipped with HIFU for the first time. The process of fat destruction using high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is that when the ultrasound is focused at a certain point in the adipose tissue, the tissue temperature instantaneously rises from 65 ° C to 100 ° C, thereby destroying the tissue. Unlike other dermatological equipment, such as laser and RF high frequency equipment, the HIFU equipment concentrates HIFU energy on non-invasively selected areas without causing any damage to the skin surface to induce coagulation necrosis do. These necrotic adipocytes are naturally removed by our body's repair mechanism.

Since the depth of the focal area differs depending on the therapeutic purpose, the conventional ultrasound therapy selects the cartridge 200 suitable for the treatment purpose and mounts the cartridge 200 on the head body 100. In addition, the operation pattern and the operation time of the transducer 226 may be selected depending on the treatment site and purpose.

At this time, when the second ball joint 2 provided on the first driving shaft 140 moves downward, the stage 130 pivots about the first ball joint 1 of the pivot shaft 400 as an axis.

In this way, when the second actuator 120 is operated, the stage 130 is pivoted by the first ball joint 1 and the second ball joint 2 and by the second ball joint 2 by the third ball joint 3 The pivoting motion is combined to cause pivoting motion in various directions.

When the slider 114 of the first actuator 110 reaches the lower limit position through the position resistance 116, the controller rotates the first actuator 110 in the opposite direction to rotate the first actuator 110, Thus, the slider 114 moves upward. When the slider 114 of the first actuator 110 reaches the upper limit position in the same manner through the position resistance 116, the controller rotates the first actuator 110 in the opposite direction So that the slider 114 reciprocates between the upper limit and the lower limit, thereby pushing or pulling the stage 130.

Meanwhile, the pivotal movement of the stage 130 is transmitted to the fitting member of the cartridge 200, and the transducer 226 mounted on the plane end by the pivoting movement of the fitting member is connected to the traverse guide 241 and the running guide 240, In the x, y direction at the top of the planar window 228 along the plane.

At this time, the length of the entire shaft is varied by the traverse guide 241, the running guide 240 and the fourth ball joint 4 so that the pivot motion is converted into the plane motion and the ultrasonic waves irradiated from the transducer 226 So that it is irradiated in a plane.
