[0004] The method of energizing the potential therapy device can be divided into the energization method (hereinafter referred to as the "whole body energization method") by using the body surface sensory receiver (1) as a biological mechanism to allow the electric field to completely cover the whole body. "); And a current-carrying method (hereinafter referred to as a" local power-on method ") in which a biological mechanism that functions from the cellular level is guided by the current (2) introduced into the body to function at the cellular level. [0005] The traditional potential therapy device is based on the use state of the whole body energization method and the partial energization method, and has a switching mode function that can be used to individually set the output voltage and output time, and each has a dedicated output for the whole body energization and local energization.

Description of the invention (3) Here, when the area of the current-carrying cloth or local current-conducting guide, or the area of the current-carrying cloth and the contact with the human body is small, the contact resistance will be increased by 2 Z, and the impact on the human body (such as 4 Z). It will also eventually reduce the electric field strength around the human body. [0007] FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of a general whole-body energization method.

The human body 4 is seated on the electrified cloth 2 A already placed on the chair 5 so that the electrified cloth 2 A and the human body 4 are in contact with each other. At this time, due to the large contact area, a high voltage almost the same as that of the high-voltage output terminal 1 a is applied to the human body 4 which is almost regarded as an electrical conductor, so that an electric field is generated around the human body 4 and transmitted. This electric field stimulates the sensory receptors on the surface of the body, exerting the effect of activating the hypothalamus of the midbrain and adjusting the autonomic nervous system or endocrine system. At this time, although a guided current flows in the body, it is dispersed throughout the human body, so that the local current density does not increase.

I _ page 7 561062 V. Description of the invention (5) The voltage will be lower than the output body for local energization, and the contact resistance 2Z of the local energization guide 2B and the human body will be large, and it will show a large decrease, so The electric field outside the stimulus area will be extremely small and will weaken the stimulus of the sensory receiver. [0011] FIG. 5 shows a schematic diagram of a human body 4 and a current line that guides current to the human body 4 by a local energization method. Some symbols in FIG. 5 are the same as those in FIG. 3. 1 'E represents the equivalent circuit when the main body of the potential therapy device 1 is in the local energization mode; lb; represents the output terminal for local energization; 2B represents the local energization guide; 3B represents the output for local energization and the introduction of the local energization guide 2B withstand voltage line. Although the local conduction current density of the conductive conductor 2 B and the body-contacting part will significantly increase, the contact between the conductor 2 B and the human body 4 is a point contact, and the contact resistance will be enlarged, so it will be greatly reduced and applied to the human body. Voltage, while extremely reducing the electric field generated around the human body. [0012] Although the whole body electrification method is used to stimulate the sensory surface of the body, it has the effect of gradually adjusting the body's autonomic nervous system and endocrine system, but it lacks the comfort or immediate effect during use and forms sales. On the downside. On the other hand, the local energization method uses local conduction of the guide 2B to alleviate the stiffness or painful muscles in the stimulation site. Therefore, the comfort and immediate effect can be requested, but the guide must be moved at any time to perform the stimulation, and Due to the high density of the guided current in the body, it will produce a sharp, irritating sensation, and sometimes an uncomfortable feeling, even after using it for a long time.

561062 V. Description of the invention (6) Danger of burns. For this reason, the voltage for local energization can only be output from AC 800 V to 1,500 V. In view of this, conventional potential therapy devices usually use both full-body and partial-on-line methods, and have a mode switching function to individually set the output voltage and output time. Terminal. [0013] [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The present invention is an invention proposed to solve the above-mentioned problems, and can be applied to the main body 1 of the potential therapy device without switching the use mode and without changing the output terminals. The whole body electrification method and the local electrification method are implemented to provide a potential therapy device capable of solving the disadvantages caused by the use of the local electrification guide. [0014] [Means to Solve the Problem] The present invention adopts a method in which an area (for example, 2,000 cm 2) of a current-carrying cloth 2 A can be easily mounted on a human body, and is used to increase the electric field strength. In order to install a local electrified cloth with an area of about one tenth of an area (for example, 2000 cm 2) on the human body, in order to introduce at least an AC high voltage of more than 5,000 V into the local electrified cloth, and expand the installation. The current is guided in the body to improve the comfort and immediate effect during use. At this time, because the contact area of the local electrified cloth with the human body is appropriate, the contact resistance will not be reduced, and the high applied force to the human body will be added.

561062 V. Description of the invention (7) Voltage will generate an electric field around the human body and stimulate the sensory receiver on the surface of the body, thereby adjusting the autonomic nervous system and endocrine system. [0015] This local energization method does not necessarily move the local energization guide by using the local energization cloth like the traditional local energization method, so there is no danger of inconvenience in use, uncomfortable stimulation, or burns. It can also perform local power-on for a long time. [0016] After introducing the AC high voltage to more than two local electrified cloths, as long as they are individually installed on the human body part to be treated (two or more places), the treatment effect and treatment efficiency can be improved. Moreover, as long as more than two local electrified cloths are combined with a belt or the like, the local electrified cloth can be easily configured and installed on the human body, and it can also be easily operated. Since it is securely mounted and fixed on the body part to be treated, the therapeutic effect can be surely exerted. [0017] [Embodiment] FIG. 6 shows one embodiment of a potential therapeutic device using the local electrification cloth of the present invention to simultaneously perform the whole-body electrification method and the local electrification method. Some symbols in the figure are the same as those in Figure 2. 2C indicates the local electrified cloth installed on the human body; 3 C indicates that the high voltage of AC (above 5,000V, which is the voltage used for conventional whole-body electrification) is introduced into the high voltage of the locally electrified cloth. Pressure resistant line. Here, like the whole-body energization method, the high voltage generated by the main body of the potential therapy device 1 will be changed from the high voltage.

Page 10 561062 V. Description of the invention (8) The output terminal 1 a is applied to the human body by introducing a local current-carrying cloth 2 C through the high voltage-resistant wire 3 C. [0018] The part of the human body on which the local electrified cloth is installed will increase the density of the guided current in the body and promote blood circulation and metabolism of adjacent tissues such as muscles. On the other hand, since the contact resistance between the local electrified cloth and the human body is not large, a high voltage is applied and an electric field is generated around the human body, thereby stimulating the sensory receiver on the surface of the body and exerting the effect of adjusting the autonomic nervous system and endocrine system. [0019 ] The stimulus brought by the local electrified cloth does not have the keen and uncomfortable stimulus like a local electrified conductor, but it has an excellent feeling of use (a strong electric field will occur in the gap between the local electrified cloth and the human body. When the electric field stimulates the sensory receiver, it will have a sense of use) and immediate effect, and it does not need to move at any time like a local conductive guide, so you only need to install one end to get the effect of the stimulating surface, and under long-term stimulation There is no danger of burns. [0020] At this time, when the local electrified cloth is wrapped with a cloth having a thickness of several mm, a gap is created between the local electrified cloth and the surface of the body, so that the sensory receiver can be stimulated and used. This creates body wall reflections in the same mechanism as the massager to promote blood circulation at the installation site. According to the results of various clinical experiments, when using the energization method of installing such a locally energized cloth, if the applied AC voltage is lower than 5, 0 0 V, the use feeling and immediate effect will be significantly reduced.

Page 11 561062 V. Description of the invention (9). [0021] FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram showing power lines generated around a human body and a current guided in the body when the electric current is applied by the localized electric cloth of the present invention. Some symbols in Fig. 7 are the same as those in Fig. 3. 2C indicates a locally energized cloth; 3C indicates a high withstand voltage line for introducing a high voltage to the locally energized cloth. The electric field strength of the human body part in contact with the local electrified cloth 2C and the density of the guided current in the body will be increased, and the usability and immediate effect can be obtained. On the other hand, since the degree of contact between the locally energized cloth 2 B and the human body 4 can be ensured, a high voltage is applied to the human body without increasing the contact resistance, so that an electric field occurs around the human body, and the sensory receptors on the surface of the body are stimulated. , And then adjust the autonomic nervous system or endocrine system. However, compared with the "full body electrification method" in Fig. 2, except for the part where the local electrified cloth is installed, the stimulus to the human sensory receiver is reduced. [0022] As can be seen from the above embodiments, as long as the AC high voltage is introduced to more than two local electrified cloths, and they are individually arranged and installed in the human body part (two or more places) to be treated, the treatment effect and efficiency can be improved. For example, if the shoulder to be treated is slightly deviated from the shoulder, even if there is no doubt about stimulus, the cervical spine and spine should be avoided, and only a localized electric cloth should be arranged and installed on both shoulders to focus the electric field and guide the body. After the current is applied, the therapeutic effect can be exerted. In addition, the left and right thighs can be stimulated at the same time. In some cases, a local electrified cloth can be installed for more than two people to exert excellent curative effects. FIG. 8 shows a locally energized cloth that applies an AC high voltage to two branches.

Page 12 561062 V. Description of the invention (ίο) [0023] As long as two or more local electrified cloths are combined with a belt, the local electrified cloths can be easily arranged and installed on the human body, and the user can also pass Install a locally energized cloth. For example, by using a local electrified cloth to clamp the knee or thigh to be treated, and then installing and fixing it, the electric field and the current can be guided in the body to obtain a better treatment effect. Fig. 9 shows an example in which an AC high-voltage branch is applied to two places, and a local electrified cloth is combined into one with a belt, and then mounted on a human body. [0024] [Inventive Effects] The present invention has the following effects: (1) It is possible to provide an adjustment of the autonomic nervous system and the endocrine system without changing the use mode of the main body of the potential therapy device and without changing the output terminal. The dual curative effect of whole body electrification method and local electrification method to promote local tissue and metabolism of human body. (2) The tissue near the human body part where the local electrified cloth is installed, can obtain the feeling of use and immediate effect, while not generating uncomfortable irritation, and achieve the effect of stimulating the surface. It can also be used for a long time, providing no Danger of burns. (3) Introducing AC high voltage to more than two local electrified cloths, and then arranging and installing them separately on the human body part to be treated, the electric field and the current can be guided in the body to provide a high therapeutic effect. In addition, it can also stimulate human body parts that are far away from each other to provide a

(4) As long as more than two (3) or more local electrified cloths are combined with a belt, the local electrified cloth can be easily arranged and installed on the human body, and the user can also install the local electrified cloth by himself. In addition, by using a local electrified cloth to clamp the site to be treated and firmly installed and fixed, the electric field and the current in the body can be more concentrated to provide a better treatment effect.
