Description

1. The technical field to which the utility model relates.

The utility model relates to physiotherapy and can be used in medicine, sports medicine, and wellness programs as a device that provides a quick analgesic effect, stimulates the central nervous system, normalizes immune reactions and disorders of the neuromotor apparatus.

2. The level of technology

The role of low-frequency (5-12 Hz) stimulation in triggering regulatory processes through the central nervous system with activation of the median structures of the brain is known. Variations of low-frequency stimulation provide a long-term therapeutic effect due to the activation of regulatory processes of the functional state of the body. When exposed to electropuncture at slow frequencies in combination with a certain cyclical effect, it is possible to activate local regulation and self-regulation of the functional state, providing further recovery processes.

Closest to this utility model are: An electrical stimulator containing a clock generator, an output transformer, a pulse generator of variable duration, electrodes, an indicating unit, a control panel, a power supply and a battery, characterized in that it is equipped with a microcontroller, the inputs of which are connected to the generator clock frequency, output transformer, pulse generator of variable duration, control panel, power supply and battery, and outputs with a clock generator, output nym transformer variable duration pulse generator indicating unit and power supply. (CERTIFICATE FOR USEFUL MODEL OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION N18353).

The disadvantages of this device are the impossibility of its compact mounting on the body, as well as the fact that the electrical pulses do not have a cyclical nature with frequency-amplitude vibrations corresponding to biorhythms of the brain that activate self-regulation processes.

The utility model is based on a technical task (goal), which consists in influencing the endorphin production system and a specific afferent system to block pain impulses. On the other hand, in the activation of regulatory processes of the functional state of the body.

A device for stimulating biologically active points of a person is known (RF Patent No. 2155079), which includes systems for diagnosing the state of BAT and their electrical stimulation, connected to a computer. The electrical stimulator contains electrodes connected to an electronic switch, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a power source, a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), and a computer.

The disadvantages of the known device is the impossibility of its use without communication with a computer, as well as the lack of operating modes in different low-frequency ranges with pulse parameters close to neuropatterns, providing activation of regulatory systems of the brain aimed at restoring the functional state of the body.

Closest to the utility model is an electrical stimulator containing a clock generator, an output transformer, a pulse generator of variable duration, electrodes, an indicating unit, a control panel, a power supply and a battery, characterized in that it is equipped with a microcontroller, the inputs of which are connected to a clock generator , an output transformer, a pulse generator of variable duration, a control panel, a power supply and a battery, and outputs with a clock generator, an output trans a formatter, a pulse generator of variable duration, a display unit and a power supply. (CERTIFICATE FOR USEFUL MODEL OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION No. 18353).

The disadvantages of this device are the impossibility of its compact mounting on the body with autonomous and long-term operation, which would ensure comfortable use in everyday activities, as well as the fact that the electrical pulses do not have a cyclic nature with frequency-amplitude vibrations corresponding to brain biorhythms that activate self-regulation processes.

All these shortcomings do not allow the use of electrical stimulants at any time comfortably under clothes and effectively activate the median structures of the brain, accelerating the restoration of the functional state of the body.

In this regard, the goal is achieved by blocking pain impulses, secreting hormones that regulate the activity of a specific body system, improving blood circulation in the field of functional impairment, and activating central and local regulation mechanisms.

Innovative technology consists in the effect of electro-puncture at slow frequencies in combination with a certain cyclical effect of frequency-amplitude modulations, corresponding to biorhythms of the brain, which allows you to activate local regulation and self-regulation of the functional state, providing further recovery processes. As well as the possibility of autonomous work of the biostimulator with simple placement on the body, given its compact flat shape, under clothes.

The stated technical problem is solved due to the shape of the device, which is an electronic capsule (diameter up to 30 mm, height up to 4 mm) containing electrodes, circuit board, microcontroller, resistors, capacitors, power supply) with a special vapor-permeable, hypoallergenic, silicone patch for holding on the body, which is in standby mode during storage and automatically turns on when the patch is attached to the skin (thereby ensuring rational battery consumption). The patch can be used both for a whole course of procedures, and for a long period of one procedure until the pain symptoms disappear completely (exposure period - from 10 minutes to 5 hours).

4. Implementation of a utility model

Figure 1 shows the device, a General view from above and side; figure 2 is a top view, figure 3 is a bottom view

The biostimulator for low-frequency electrotherapy on an adhesive basis contains a capsule 1 (Fig. 1) with software and electrodes, an adhesive base 2 having a tear-off protective film 3 (Fig. 1). The adhesive base of the biostimulator is designed for several bondings. The biostimulator is activated by contact of the electrodes 4 with the skin (figure 2). Power source 5 is designed for a course of treatment of up to 20 procedures (figure 3). The software 6 selects the electrotherapy program based on the current functional state of the body (figure 3). When you turn on the device lights up LED 7 (figure 1), which allows to evaluate the health of the biostimulator and determine when the life will expire.

The device is a pulse current generator. The waveform is a periodic cyclic sequence of unipolar packs of current pulses from rectangular to frequency-amplitude modulation.

The pulse repetition rate, Hz 5 ... 12, 16-30, 70-150 The range of the amplitude of the pulse current 0 ... 100

load 1000 Ohm, μA

To achieve a more effective analgesia, automatic adjustment of the duration of the stimulus is used, which allows to significantly prolong the effect of pain relief.

The device can be used either for a long period of time (up to 5 hours), or courses of procedures. It can be used both as an independent therapeutic agent, and in the complex therapy of somatic diseases.

Preparing for work.

Before using the electrostimulator, it is necessary to remove the electrostatic potential from you by touching your hand to any grounded device (water tap, heating pipe, etc.), remove the device and the LED from the package. Remove the protective film from the adhesive side of the patch. Check the performance of the electrical stimulator using the LED. Connect the leads of the LED - each to the corresponding cap of the electrical stimulator. The LED should flash at intervals of about 3 seconds. The patch is attached to a specific area associated with the problem organ or muscles. Skin contact starts the patch.

5. Industrial applicability

The device can be most effectively used in medicine (preventive and medical institutions), in sports medicine, fitness clubs, and health centers - based on corrective, therapeutic and rehabilitation effects, as well as on an outpatient basis on the recommendation of a doctor.
