The effect of the magnetic field on the human body is known to some extent. A living cell is a special structure called a carrier, which selectively transports the necessary energy. On the physicochemical side, however, a molecule with a high concentration of substance moves through the cell to the lower side.

In the case of this diffusion, it is related to the size of the substance to be introduced and the presence or absence of fat-soluble substance, and it is greatly influenced by the ionization state of the atoms.

In an ionized state of the atom, the anemic tissue of the cell smoothly circulates. Accordingly, the + magnetic field induces the ionization phenomenon in the scalp, thereby contributing to the improvement of the blood circulation of the capillary blood vessels. It is possible to show breakthrough achievements.

That is, when the magnetic field is repeatedly irradiated on the scalp for a long period of time, the hair follicle in the dermis is stimulated, and the capillary blood vessels in the tissue are developed into the ionization phenomenon in the scalp by the + magnetic field to promote the assimilation of hemoglobin, As a result, the structure of the protein in the dermal tissue is assisted to strengthen the hair follicle. If the hair follicle is alive by that effect, a strong parent is born there.

As described above, the operation unit 120 selects the operation mode and the week unit according to the user's state using the first operation button 121a and the second operation button 121b, and transmits the selected operation mode and the week unit to the control unit 110. [ The control unit 110 controls the scalp cell activation device by performing an operation according to a signal transmitted from the operation unit 120 and a command word.

First, in order to prevent unnecessary consumption of the battery when the power saving mode is selected, the status display screen 122 of the operation unit 120 is in an off state, and when an arbitrary button is pressed, the status display screen 122 is turned on.

The first operation button 121a is a button for selecting a mode and a week unit. The first operation button 121a performs an operation displayed on the left display screen of the status display screen 122 and on the parking display screen 122a. On the other hand, the second operation button 121b is a button for selecting whether or not to start after selecting the operation mode and parking, and executes an operation displayed on the user mode display screen 122b on the right side of the status display screen 122 .

The operation mode can be selected by pressing the first operation button 121a in the initial screen state in which the status display screen 122 is turned on.

When the first operation button 121a is pressed once, the first mode (G mode) is selected, the second mode (T mode) is selected twice, the third mode (A mode) The fourth mode (C mode) is selected.

When the second operation button 121b for performing the start function is selected after each operation mode is selected, the scalp cell activation apparatus sets the main differential voltage value according to the selected mode as shown in Table 2. [

Then, when the user selects the week according to the treatment period and then the second operation button 121b is pressed again, the operation time display screen 122c on the status display screen displays the treatment progress time To indicate that the device is proceeding normally. At this time, a voltage of a preset intensity is applied to the output unit 130 in accordance with the week unit of the user, and a magnetic field corresponding thereto is generated.

At this time, pressing the first operation button 121a stops the progress of each operation mode and returns to the initial screen state, and if the second operation button 121b is pressed again, the session continues.

When the operation is completed and the operation time of 12 minutes is completed, the operation returns to the initial screen state, and if no button is operated for one minute, the status display screen 122 is turned off to prevent unnecessary consumption of the battery.

On the other hand, if the second operation button 121b is pressed on the initial screen, the mode is switched to the user function setting mode. The user function setting mode includes a contrast control mode that allows you to adjust the brightness of the LCD display screen, a used count check mode that allows you to check the number of times the device has been used so far, And a remaining number confirmation mode (Remain) for confirming remaining usable times for the second operation button 121b. Each time the second operation button 121b is pressed one by one, the mode is shifted to each mode. In the remaining number confirmation mode, (121b) again to return to the initial state.

The number of times of input to the device can be connected to the computer by RS232C cable, and it is set by executing a separate input program.

In the contrast adjustment mode, when the first operation button 121a is pressed once and then the first operation button 121a is pressed again, the brightness decreases and becomes dark. After the first operation button 121a is pressed once, the second operation button 121b, the brightness increases and becomes bright. Therefore, after the first and second operation buttons 121a and 121b are simultaneously pressed in consideration of appropriate clarity, the screen returns to the initial screen.

In order to confirm the number of times, the second operation button 121b is pressed again to ignore the contrast adjustment mode and the second operation button 121b is pressed twice and three times to proceed to the use frequency confirmation mode and the remaining frequency confirmation mode.

On the other hand, when the first operation button 121a and the second operation button 121b are pressed at the same time in all the steps of the contrast adjustment mode, the use frequency confirmation mode and the remaining frequency confirmation mode, the initial screen state is returned regardless of the step.
