Description

 The invention relates to medical equipment and can be used for simultaneous electrical and mechanical effects on the human body.

 Known device Yu.P. Rich for combined exposure according to the patent of the Russian Federation N 2012324, on the body of which are evenly located cells for removable finger-shaped elements with dotted active electrodes placed in them. Cells and active electrodes of finger-shaped elements are connected by electrical contacts. Finger-shaped elements can be located in any configuration to affect a particular area of the body.

 Thanks to the fixation elements, the prototype body is pressed against a certain part of the body, while simultaneously exerting electrical and mechanical effects, since the electrode supplies electric current, and the finger-like element has a point effect such as Japanese shiatsu therapy. In this case, both effects enhance the therapeutic effect of each other, in combination acquiring an independent quality.

 It is known that in Japanese therapy "shiatsu" is applied not only to the fingertips, but also to other surfaces of the hand, in particular the edge of the palm. Pressing with the edge of the palm of the palm is especially effective for spasms of blood vessels, a pain symptom, diseases of the glandular organs, such as the mammary gland. When pressing with the edge of the palm, the vessels or ducts of the glands are squeezed in a certain zone, contributing to the overflow of blood or gland secretion in it, when the palm is taken away, the tissues of the zone are freed from the liquid. The alternation of such effects helps to train the smooth muscles of blood vessels or ducts and relieve their spasm.

 Carrying out point pressure such as Japanese shiatsu therapy on a group of points of any configuration with simultaneous electric influence on them, the prototype is deprived of the ability to squeeze soft tissues like the edge of a palm.

 The aim of the invention is the possibility of pressure along the lines of various configurations similarly to pressure by the edge of the palm with simultaneous point electric action along the same lines, which would enhance the therapeutic effect.

 This goal is achieved by the fact that on the body of the device are fixed, for example by suction cups, rollers with a cross section similar to the cross section of the palm ribs, along which point active electrodes are uniformly located. Each electrode is equipped with a wire going to the switch. The configurations of the rollers correspond to the zones in which they act, repeating their relief.

 Figure 1-9, illustrating the invention, shows some configurations of the rollers on the housing of the electromechanical manipulator; figure 1-6 is an electromechanical manipulator, side view; 7-8 cross section of the roller; in FIG. 9 longitudinal section of the roller.

 The housing 1 is equipped with a handle 2, removable nozzles-rollers 3 with point active electrodes 4, equipped with insulated wires 5, forming a cable 6 that goes to the switch 7, connected to the electric power source by the wire 8. The nozzles 3 are equipped with clamps-suction cups / figure 1- 7 not shown /, in FIG. 8 and 9 in section under the number 9.

 The electromechanical manipulator is prepared for work as follows.

 On the smooth working surface of the body with the help of clamps-suction cups 9 in the right position are mounted nozzles-rollers 3 of a certain shape to affect a specific area.

 FIG. 1 nozzle-rollers are located in two parallel lines for paravertebral / paravertebral / impact along the first lateral meridians of the back with osteochondrosis of the spine, radiculitis.

 FIG. 2 round nozzle-roller is fixed for impact on the mammary gland around the nipple with mastic.

 FIG. 3 nozzles-rollers are located in two parallel lines for paravertebral / paravertebral / impact along the second lateral meridians of the back with osteochondrosis of the spine, radiculitis.

 FIG. 4 nozzles-rollers are located crosswise to affect the lateral surface of the mammary gland with mastitis.

 FIG. 5 nozzles-rollers are located in three parallel lines for intercostal exposure with intercostal neuralgia.

 FIG. 6, the nozzle-roller in the form of a concave arc is fixed for the impact between the base of the skull and the spine / vertebrobasilar zone / with spasm of blood vessels supplying the head and brain.

 Electromechanical manipulator operates as follows.

 A passive electrode (not shown), which performs the traditional function of supplying electric current to the body as a mass, is mounted on the patient’s body, for example, he takes it in his hand or cheek, after which the body of the electromechanical manipulator with the roller nozzles placed on it is pressed against to another part of the body, applying an electric current to it in the comfort zone, so that the patient feels a "mosquito bite", but not pain or severe burning, adjusting it with an ammeter with a potentiometer. Electric current is supplied either to all point electrodes simultaneously or alternately, pressing the housing for a certain time, for example 15 s.

 Depending on the individual sensitivity of the patient, his condition, the disease, direct current, positive or negative charge, alternating current, pulsed, with curved curves, etc. can be supplied to the manipulator’s point / active / electrodes and his passive electrode. those. all types of electrical effects used in electrotherapy that are harmless to the patient of the magnitude and voltage adopted by the Ministry of Health.

 Elements such as a passive electrode, potentiometer, power source, switches, switches, wires are not shown, as they perform traditional functions and their relative position is not of fundamental importance.

Claims (1)

 An electromechanical manipulator comprising a housing, fixation elements, removable elements for mechanical action with point active electrodes placed in them, equipped with electrical connectors for connection to a switch, characterized in that the elements for mechanical action are made in the form of a set of rollers with a cross section of the palm edge, commensurable with the parts of the body on which they act and repeating their configuration.
