1,.Ionn BAPTIST Hamme, ot` NewYork, countyA of New York, State of New York, have invented an ImprovedApparatus for Treating Diseases by Gal-- vanism, of which thefo'llowing is a specification.
` Natura and Object of Invention. d -My `invention relatcstoapparatus foiv treating diseases, or disorders,by'galvanism, and l My invention consists of 'a plate or platform, for the .reception of the patient, connected toone pole of a battery, a body ofmirieralwater, or' other solution, in
which the patient is immersed, and certain immersed plates connected to the other pole of the battery, all
. as fully dcscribed'hereaftea so that the patient can be' readily and conveniently operated upon without the enrrent being interrupted by the contact of' the patient with the said plates.
i l clined at one endand other-vise similar in form to or` dinary metal bathing tnh.` and at each side of the tubarc two metal easings; a a, cach of which commul nicates with the intzrior oftheftub through pcrforations or openings, c 0.@ The tub and its easing are inelosed in a suitable wooden box, B, and along the hoti, tom and the .inclined and vertical ends vof the tub .extends a narrow plate, C, of copper, orother suita- 4ble metal, which rests nponand is insulated from the tubhy an intervening strip of wood, e. 1
` Within the easing amarc suspended two metal plates, I, which are connected to a wire, I), and tol sockets, fi, in the said plates areiittcd wooden plugs, n,
l i whichprevent the' plates from comingfin contact at i f `anypoint `with the mctalof the casings.
l n One poleof a battery is connected by a wire, s, to
the plate O, andtheopposite pole by a wire, t, tothe [yoke D,'and the tub is iilled with water, or other fluid,
l 1 `holding mineral, or other matters, in solution. The apparatus is then ready for use.
`The patient, immersed, or partly immersed, in the fluid, rests on the plate or rest'G, and is thus brought into connection with `one pole of the battery, to or from which a constant current passes in the direction of the plates I.
sil-ed to produce, and tlienature of the disease, or disorder, to be treated. Y
It will be seen that hyf' placing the plates I in chambers outside of but. communicating with `the tub,.the
' unpleasant and injurious el'ects'resulting from contact of the body of the patient with such plates are avoided. I do not limit myself tothe precise construct-ion and arrangement of parts shownfasv they may be varied. The plate .(l, for'instance, may be curved so as to fit Vclosely to the bakand spine oi' the patient.
` K. Claims.'
1. An insulatedplate or rest, @constructed andarranged for the reception of the patient, connected to one pole `of a battery, and surrounded by a fluid con- 'taining mineral, or other matter, in solution, iu com buation with' plates I I, connected to the other pole of the battery, the whole being arranged within a tub, A, as set forth.
2. The exterior easings for the reception of the plates I I, arranged iii respect to and communicating with the tub "A, as specified.
.3. The combination and .arrangement of the per forated `tub A, -easingsa a, plates U and I, insulated material e, and connecting-wires s t, as set forth.
4. The platcsI I, provided with sockets-i, for thed.
reception oi' insulating plugs 'a n, as described.
In testimonywhereof I have signed my nametothis. specification .in the'prescnce of two subscribing wit- '.IOHN n. HATTING.
