So that the cost of replacing the pads can be drastically reduced.
Generally, a low-frequency therapy device refers to a device that stimulates nerves or muscles of a human body by using an electrical signal that is a low-frequency pulse, and improves blood circulation through nerve stimulation using a low frequency, It is widely used for.
When developing such a low frequency treatment device, current control or voltage control method is used to adjust the low frequency intensity, but the current control method requires a complicated circuit and a lot of components, and most low frequency therapeutic device developers Control method is used. However, the voltage control method has a merit of simple circuit, but it has a disadvantage that accuracy is low and reliability is low.
In addition, such a low-frequency electric therapy apparatus has a problem in that it is inconvenient to use and manage since a plurality of wires are connected to connection terminals provided in a body, and a plurality of wires are independently connected to the pads through connection tools respectively .

The current sensor unit according to the present invention detects a current flowing through the human body and transmits the detected current to the control unit. The controller calculates the impedance of the human body by calculating the current intensity. If the human body impedance value changes The low frequency intensity is automatically reduced by lowering the low frequency intensity when the impedance value is decreased and the low frequency intensity is increased when the impedance value is increased so that the low frequency intensity can be always constantly provided, The control is made accurate by applying the method of controlling the intensity of the low frequency by the amount of electric power, and the structure is simplified and the design can be made thin.

The pad has a portion through which the electrode of the separated electrode device can penetrate, and a conductive adhesive layer is fixed to the front surface of the pad. And a conductive material is applied to the rear surface of the pad in a predetermined pattern so that low frequency waves can be transmitted to the pad when the low frequency therapy device and the separate electrode device are fastened.
In addition, the low-frequency treatment device is detachably attached to the pad, and when not in use, the pad is attached to the skin, and only the low-frequency treatment device can be separated and stored, and the adhesive layer of the pad is in the form of a hydrogel .
The low-frequency treatment device of the present invention can easily couple and separate the low-frequency treatment device and the pad, and can transfer the effective ingredient of the pad to the skin by attaching the pad for a long time. The low-frequency treatment device is attached only when necessary, It can be stored separately from the pad, and thus it is convenient to carry and use.
In addition, by applying a method of controlling the intensity of a low frequency applied to the human body by the amount of electric power instead of the current control method or the voltage control method, the control becomes accurate, the structure becomes simple, the design becomes thin, So that the low-frequency therapy apparatus can be made very small, so that it can be used conveniently.
