[0001] 本発明は、経絡を刺激して衛気を涵養する治療器に関し、特に所望の経絡のみを 刺激する治療器に関する。  TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a treatment device that stimulates meridians and recharges the air, and particularly relates to a treatment device that stimulates only a desired meridian.

[0002] 本発明に関する現時点での技術水準をより十分に説明する目的で、本願で引用さ れ或いは特定される特許、特許出願、特許公報、科学論文等の全てを、ここに、参照 することでそれらの全ての説明を組入れる。  [0002] For the purpose of more fully explaining the current state of the art regarding the present invention, reference should be made here to all patents, patent applications, patent publications, scientific papers, etc. cited or specified in the present application. Incorporate all those descriptions.
[0003] 衛気学説は『黄帝内経』によって創案され、 "天人合一"すなわち、 "人と自然界とは 相応しており、密接な関係がある"という思想を基礎に作り上げられた重要な理論で ある。その要旨は、人はどのようにして一年四気の気候変化に適応して生存するか、 どのようにして体温の恒常性を保って!/、る力、どのようにして気候異常による外来の 六淫邪気の侵襲に抵抗している力、どのようにして自然界の昼夜のリズムと同調しバ ィォリズムを調節して 、るかなどにある。すなわち衛気学説は外界環境との協調統一 といった、整体の調節理論である。  [0003] The esoteric theory was invented by "Huang Emperor", and was created based on the idea that "Tenjin Goichi", that is, "humans and the natural world correspond and have a close relationship" It is a theory. The gist of this is how people live by adapting to four-year climate change, how to maintain body temperature homeostasis! It is the power that resists the insult of the six innocences, how to adjust the rhythm in synchrony with the natural rhythm of day and night. In other words, the hygiene theory is a manipulative regulation theory such as cooperative unification with the external environment.
[0004] 衛気は先天の下焦の腎の元気を来源とし、後天脾胃の水穀の悍気により栄養され 、肺の宣布作用によって体表皮毛に到達する。これにより"分肉を温め、皮膚を充た し、膜理を肥やし、開合を司る"といった一連の生理機能を発揮することができる。  [0004] Hygiene is derived from the spirit of the congenital inferior kidney, is nourished by the agglutination of water grains in the acquired splenic stomach, and reaches the epidermis hair by the proliferating action of the lungs. As a result, a series of physiological functions such as “warm the meat, fill the skin, fertilize the membrane, and manage the opening” can be exhibited.
[0005] 『霊枢*営衛生会篇』では「営は中焦より出、衛は上焦より出る」、また「人は気を穀 に受け、穀は胃に入り、以て肺に伝え五臓六腑、皆以て気を受く」と記載される。『素 問'痺論』では「衛は水穀の悍気なり……腹膜を薫じ、胸腹に散ず」と記載される。『 内経』のこれらの論述から、衛気の来源は下焦の腎の気 (すなわち真気)にあり、中 焦脾胃が化生した水穀の悍気によって栄養が充実され、上焦に上行して肺の宣散 や調節'制御を受けることにより"五臓六腑は皆気を受ける"ことができる。このようなこ とから"衛気は下焦より生じて、中焦により滋生され、肺により総合統括される"と言わ れる。 [0006] また、『黄帝内経』では営衛の循行形式には二種類あることを提示されている。 [0005] In the “Psychia * Hygiene Society”, “Ying comes out from the center, Mamoru comes out from the top”, and “People receive the mind, and the grain enters the stomach, which is conveyed to the lungs. "The five viscera and the six are all worried."“Question's numbness theory” states that “Ei is a miracle of water grain… sprinkles the peritoneum and does not scatter in the chest and abdomen”. From these discussions in “Nikkei”, the source of hygiene lies in the spirit of the lower kidneys (ie, seriousness). Then, by receiving the 'promotion and regulation' of the lungs, it is possible for everyone to feel the "sixth and sixth base". For this reason, it is said that "Health arises from the lower focus, is revived by the middle focus, and is comprehensively controlled by the lungs." [0006] In addition, in "Huang Emperor", it is proposed that there are two types of circulation of the escort.
[0007] 一つは、営は脈中を循り、衛は脈外を循り、衛気は営気に伴って十二経脈を運行し ており、陰 (営)陽 (衛)は相貫いて環のように端が無ぐ五十周してもとの手の太陰肺 経にもどるというものである。 [0007] One is that Ying circulates in the pulse, Mamoru circulates outside the pulse, and Hygi operates the twelve meridians with the air. Even after fifty laps with no end like a ring, it returns to the lunar meridian of the original hand.
[0008] 二つ目は、衛気は独自に循行し、昼は陽経を二十五周循り、夜は陰経を二十五周 巡り、昼夜を分けるというものである。 [0008] The second is that the spirit circulates independently, and the sun goes around 25 times around the sun, and the night goes around 25 times around the sun, dividing the day and night.
[0009] 『霊枢'本臓』では「衛気なる者は、分肉を温め、皮膚を充たし、 [0009] In “Reihu's main organ”, “Healthy person warms the flesh, fills the skin,
 腠
理を肥やし、開合司るゆえんの者なり」と記載されている。また、『霊枢 '禁服篇』では「 審らかに衛気を察し、百病治療の母となす」と述べられている。さらに『霊枢*営衛生 会篇』では「衛は脈外に在り、営周して休まず、衛気は、陰を行くこと二十五度、陽を 行くこと二十五度、分かちて昼夜を為す。故に陽気至りて起り、陰に至て止まる」と記 載されている。  "Being the person who is the reason for fattening and opening up". In addition, in the “Pilot's Forbidden Edition”, it is stated that “they will be grateful for the guard and become the mother of treatment for hundreds of diseases”. Furthermore, in the “Psychic * Hygiene Society Hen”, “Ei is out of the pulse, and she runs without rest, and she is 25 times to go in the shade and 25 times to go in the sun. It will be a day and a night, so it will come up cheerfully and stop in the shade. ”
[0010] 以上の『黄帝内経』の衛気の機能に関する論述を総合すると、衛気の主要な機能 は、次のような生体が外界気候環境と関係する致病要因 (病邪)に対する抵抗能力 および生体の内環境を安定維持させる調節能力を示している。すなわち、第一に衛 外固表、抗御外邪などの防御機能 (免疫機能)である。第二がエネルギー代謝'体温 調節機能(自律神経 ·内分泌機能)である。第三が昼夜の周期リズムの調節機能(自 律神経 '内分泌機能)である。従って衛気の働きは、実質上現代医学でいうストレス 反応システム中でも免疫調整機能と類似するものである。  [0010] By summarizing the above-mentioned discussions on the function of air in “Yellow Inner Sutra”, the main function of air is as follows: Resistance to lethal factors (diseases) related to the external climate environment It shows the ability and the ability to regulate the internal environment of the living body stably. That is, the first is the defense function (immune function) such as the outer guard and anti-evil. The second is energy metabolism 'temperature regulation function (autonomic nerve and endocrine function). The third is the function of regulating the rhythm of day and night (autonomic nerve 'endocrine function). Therefore, the function of health is substantially similar to the immune regulation function in the stress response system in modern medicine.
[0011] 一方、五臓六腑に心包という臓器が加わって 12の代表臓腑があるが、それぞれに 関連する 12の経脈が手足末端まで縦に支配している。その一部を図 7に示し肺の経 脈は臍とみぞおちの真ん中から起こり、下って大腸をまとい反転上向して横隔膜を貫 いて肺に所属し、さらに上向して気管を巡り、左右に分かれて腋の下力 上腕 '前腕 の前面を下って拇指端で終わる。途中、手首から枝脈出て人差し指の先端で大腸経 に交わる。大腸経は、人差し指端から前腕 '上腕の外側を上向して肩から鎖骨上部 で体内に入り肺をまとい大腸に所属する。鎖骨上部力 枝脈が出て首力も頰'下歯を 通って鼻の下で左右が交差し、鼻の脇で終わる。ここ力 胃経に繋がって下降し、脾 胃等を巡り足先までの臓腑と、手足の連絡路となる。 [0011] On the other hand, there are 12 representative visceral fistulas with an organ called the heart capsule added to the five viscera and six limbs. A part of this is shown in Fig. 7, and the pulmonary vein originates from the middle of the umbilicus and the groove, goes down and inverts upwards, penetrates the diaphragm and belongs to the lungs, further upwards and traverses the trachea, The lower arm force of the arm is divided into upper arms and ends at the end of the thumb. On the way, branch out of the wrist and cross the large intestine at the tip of the index finger. The large intestine meridian belongs to the large intestine, covering the lungs through the body from the forefinger's forearm upwards to the outside of the upper arm and from the shoulder to the upper part of the clavicle. Clavicular upper force Branches appear and neck force passes through the lower teeth and crosses under the nose and ends at the side of the nose. This force leads to the stomach and descends, and the spleen It goes around the stomach, etc.
[0012] この他に横の連絡路として 15絡脈、経脈'絡脈から溢れ出た衛気営血を処理する 奇経等の路線があり、これらを総称して経絡と呼び、それぞれが密接な連絡を取り合 つている。  [0012] In addition to this, there are 15 communication lines as a horizontal communication path, a line such as a miracle that treats the blood flow that overflows from the transvenous line, and these are collectively called meridians, and each is closely connected Stay in touch.
[0013] この経絡を衛気営血が流れ、全身の栄養や外邪からの防御、機能的アンバランス 時の調整等の役割を果たして!/、る。  [0013] Hygiene blood flows through this meridian, and plays a role such as whole body nutrition, protection from external illness, and adjustment during functional imbalance!
[0014] 病気になると経絡を流れる衛気営血の乱れを生じるので、経絡上に配置されている[0014] It is placed on the meridian because it causes disturbance of the hygiene blood flowing through the meridian when ill
「つぼ」を使ってその乱れを整えるのが鉞灸治療等に相当する。従来の鉞灸治療で は、高温や針による刺激が用いられる力 いずれも「つぼ」である経穴を対象としてい る。 Acupuncture and other treatments use the pot to correct the disturbance. Conventional acupuncture targets acupuncture points that are both “hot pots” and the force used to stimulate them with high temperatures and needles.
[0015] これに対して、既に経穴を電気的に刺激する装置としては、例えば特許文献 1にお いて提案がなされている。すなわち、低周波発生器によりパルス電流を人体のつぼ に供給して、電気的刺激を加える装置であって、発生器の出力端にリード線を介して 接続した出力端子と、人体に接着テープ等により固定される接触電極とを磁力によつ て接続すると共に、装置ケーシングの背面に、耳穴に挿入保持しうる略きのこ型の装 着部を突設する。このため、人体のあらゆる部分の他のつぼを容易かつ同時に複数 箇所刺激でき、しかも、人体への接触電極の装着保持が容易であり、出力端子の接 続も至極簡単で、取扱が容易である。  [0015] On the other hand, for example, Patent Document 1 has proposed a device for electrically stimulating acupoints. In other words, a device that applies a pulse current to a human body vase by a low-frequency generator to apply electrical stimulation, an output terminal connected to the output end of the generator via a lead wire, an adhesive tape to the human body, etc. The contact electrode fixed by the above is connected by magnetic force, and a substantially mushroom-shaped mounting portion that can be inserted and held in the ear hole is projected from the back of the device casing. For this reason, it is possible to easily and simultaneously stimulate other points on all parts of the human body, and it is easy to attach and hold the contact electrodes to the human body, and the connection of the output terminals is extremely simple and easy to handle. .
[0016] また、特許文献 2では、遠赤外線を放射するセラミックスを、経穴にあて、該遠赤外 線が経穴を通して経路に働きかけることによって経穴、経路治療システムが働くように 構成されている。  [0016] Further, Patent Document 2 is configured such that acupoints and a path treatment system work when ceramics that emits far infrared rays are applied to acupuncture points and the far infrared rays act on the path through the acupuncture points.

[0018] しかし、衛気は経穴 1点を通るのではなく経絡全体を流れるものであるから、より効 果的に刺激するには、経穴 1点に限定するのではなぐ経絡全体を刺激することで衛 気の流れ全体改善することができる。 [0019] また、経穴は特定の 1点に限定されるため、経穴を刺激する際に正確な位置の把 握が困難である。このため、必ずしも適切な位置を刺激できない場合も生じている。こ の場合は正 、治療が行なえな 、場合も生じて 、る。 [0018] However, since hygiene flows through the entire meridian instead of passing through one meridian point, in order to stimulate more effectively, it is necessary to stimulate the entire meridian rather than being limited to one point. The overall flow of hygiene can be improved. [0019] Further, since the acupuncture point is limited to one specific point, it is difficult to accurately grasp the position when stimulating the acupuncture point. For this reason, there is a case where an appropriate position cannot always be stimulated. In this case, there is a case where the treatment is not possible.

[0032] 其々の周波数の正弦波に対して、特定の経絡のみが反応するため、例え周波数を 混合させても他の経絡には影響を与えないが混合させた場合複数の高調波も発生 するため他の周波数による影響が生じる場合もある。このため、上記の周波数の信号 を単独で使用することが好まし 、。 [0032] Since only specific meridians respond to sine waves of each frequency, even if the frequencies are mixed, other meridians will not be affected, but if mixed, multiple harmonics are also generated For this reason, the influence of other frequencies may occur. For this reason, it is preferable to use a signal of the above frequency alone.
[0033] また、経絡個別周波数切替手段 4として信号を開始するスィッチ 24aと、信号を一 時停止させる一時停止スィッチ 24bと、信号を停止させる停止スィッチ 24cもまた設け られる。  [0033] Further, a switch 24a for starting a signal, a pause switch 24b for temporarily stopping the signal, and a stop switch 24c for stopping the signal are also provided as the meridian individual frequency switching means 4.
[0034] 続いて、可変周波数発生手段 6は、制御手段 10であり PWM信号を生成する中央 演算素子 CPU26の信号発生部 28と、生成した PWM信号を DC出力に変調する口 一パスフィルタ 30と、 DC電圧によって特定の周波数の三角波信号を生成する VCO 32力もなる。 Subsequently, the variable frequency generation means 6 is the control means 10 and generates a PWM signal. The central processing element CPU26 generates a signal generation section 28, and a single pass filter 30 that modulates the generated PWM signal into a DC output. A VCO that generates a triangular wave signal of a specific frequency by DC voltage There are 32 powers.
[0035] 中央演算素子 CPU26は、経路を刺激するための各種ソフトウェア処理に必要なプ ログラムを記憶した読み出し専用メモリ (ROM) 34、信号発生時間を計時するタイマ 36、信号を PWM信号として出力する信号発生部 28と、演算処理部を主体として構 成されている。  [0035] The central processing unit CPU26 outputs a read-only memory (ROM) 34 storing a program necessary for various software processes for stimulating a path, a timer 36 for measuring a signal generation time, and a signal as a PWM signal. It consists mainly of a signal generator 28 and an arithmetic processor.

[0037] さらに、増幅手段 8は三角波信号を SIN波に変換して経絡刺激信号に増幅する機 能を持ち、三角波 SIN波変換器 36と、可変抵抗 38と、可変抵抗 38を通過した信号 を減衰させる減衰器 40とから構成される。  [0037] Further, the amplifying means 8 has a function of converting a triangular wave signal into a SIN wave and amplifying it into a meridian stimulus signal. The amplifying means 8 converts a triangular wave SIN wave converter 36, a variable resistor 38, and a signal that has passed through the variable resistor 38. It consists of an attenuator 40 for attenuating.
[0038] 三角波 SIN波変換器 36は、三角波を入力してその周波数を変えることなく正弦波( SIN波)に変換する装置である。例えば、三角波 SIN波変換器 36としては周知のォ ペアンプ積分回路とウィーンブリッジ型発振回路とを結合させることで容易に実現で きる。さら〖こ、三角波 SIN波変 36の出力は可変抵抗 VR38に接続される。  Triangular wave SIN wave converter 36 is a device that receives a triangular wave and converts it into a sine wave (SIN wave) without changing its frequency. For example, the triangular wave sine wave converter 36 can be easily realized by combining a well-known op-amp integrating circuit and a Wien bridge type oscillation circuit. Sarako, Triangular Wave The output of the sine wave modification 36 is connected to the variable resistor VR38.
[0039] 可変抵抗 VR38は、回転角度によって抵抗値が変化する回転型、スライダの位置 を変化させることで抵抗が変化するスライド型、抵抗値を微調整可能なポテンショメ一 タ型、また素材として、炭素被膜や、サーメット等の金属被膜や、卷線カもなるものの いずれであってもよい。さらに、ボタンによって電子的に抵抗を変化させるデジタル形 を採用することは設計変更の範囲内である。  [0039] The variable resistor VR38 is a rotary type in which the resistance value changes according to the rotation angle, a slide type in which the resistance changes by changing the position of the slider, a potentiometer type in which the resistance value can be finely adjusted, and a material. Any of carbon coatings, metal coatings such as cermets, and the like can be used. In addition, it is within the scope of design changes to adopt a digital form in which the resistance is electronically changed by a button.
[0040] 減衰器 40は、固定抵抗を π形または Τ型に接続して構成される。抵抗値は予め定 まっている場合は、固定値とするが必要に応じて複数組の抵抗列を並列に接続させ ておきロータリースィッチで選択可能に接続することで減衰度の調整が可能となる。  [0040] The attenuator 40 is configured by connecting a fixed resistor in a π-type or a Τ-type. If the resistance value is determined in advance, it is fixed, but if necessary, multiple sets of resistor strings can be connected in parallel, and the rotary switch can be selected so that the attenuation can be adjusted. .
[0041] 電極 12は、少なくとも 2つ設けられて減衰器 40に接続される。  [0041] At least two electrodes 12 are provided and connected to the attenuator 40.

The LED driver receives the remaining time information generated by the timer 36 and generates a drive signal for each LED of the 7-segment LED 46. The 7-segment LED 46 displays the remaining time as a digital value.

On the other hand, a power switch 18, a power connector 22, a fuse box 20, and a ground terminal 23 are projected from the back side surface of the main body.
[0046] 電極 12は、さらに図 4 (a) , (b)並びに図 5に示す。図 4 (a)は、電極 12の生体への 接触面を示し、図 4 (b)は (a)の背面を示す。  The electrode 12 is further shown in FIGS. 4 (a), (b) and FIG. FIG. 4 (a) shows the contact surface of the electrode 12 to the living body, and FIG. 4 (b) shows the back surface of (a).
[0047] 電極 12は頭部 50が凸形状であり、頭部と凸部に嵌合される凹部 52が設けられる。  [0047] The electrode 12 has a convex head part 50, and is provided with a concave part 52 fitted to the convex part.
ゴム素材が織り込まれた布帯 54の中心に開口部を設け、その開口部に電極 12が挿 入されて、凹部 52と頭部 50に布帯 54を挿んで固定する。布帯 54の電極 12の側面 に面ファスナ 56を縫着する。布帯 54の電極 12の裏側面に先の素材の背面が縫着さ れる。  An opening is provided in the center of the fabric band woven with a rubber material, the electrode 12 is inserted into the opening, and the fabric band 54 is inserted into the recess 52 and the head 50 and fixed. A surface fastener 56 is sewn to the side surface of the electrode 12 of the cloth band 54. The back of the previous material is sewn to the back side of the electrode 12 of the fabric band 54.
[0048] 一方、布帯 54の中央に前記凹部 52が挿入され、その凸部 58に凹部 52が係り止め されて布帯 54に固定される。  On the other hand, the concave portion 52 is inserted into the center of the fabric band 54, and the concave portion 52 is locked to the convex portion 58 and fixed to the fabric band 54.
[0049] この布帯 54は凸部 58が外側へ突設するように手首または足首等に巻き付けて、面 ファスナ 56を布帯 54に圧着させて固定する。また、頭部 50の表面には導電性のぺ 一ストを塗布する。塗布によって電極 12と腕との接触抵抗を低下させる。  [0049] The fabric band 54 is wound around the wrist or ankle so that the convex portion 58 protrudes outward, and the surface fastener 56 is fixed to the fabric band 54 by pressure bonding. In addition, a conductive paste is applied to the surface of the head 50. The contact resistance between the electrode 12 and the arm is lowered by application.
[0050] 本発明の作用について図 1乃至 7を用いて説明する。  [0050] The operation of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs.
[0051] まず、電極 12を備えた一組の布帯 54を被治療者の身体の一方の手の手首及び同 一側の足の足首に装着する(図 6)。ここで、布帯 54に装着した電極の頭部 50に導 電性のペーストを塗布して、被治療者の皮膚に接触するように配置する。布帯 54は 面ファスナ 56を布帯 54に圧着させて固定する。  [0051] First, a pair of cloths 54 provided with electrodes 12 are attached to the wrist of one hand and the ankle of the foot on the same side of the body of the patient (Fig. 6). Here, a conductive paste is applied to the head portion 50 of the electrode attached to the fabric band 54 and arranged so as to come into contact with the skin of the patient. The fabric band 54 is fixed by crimping the hook-and-loop fastener 56 to the fabric band 54.
[0052] 電源スィッチ 18によって電源が投入されると電源 16より、可変周波数発生手段 6と 増幅手段 8と制御手段 10と表示手段 14とに電源が供給される。 [0053] 続、てスィッチ 24である経絡選択スィッチとタイマ選択スィッチと信号発生スィッチ において刺激対象となる経絡が例えば胃経(2— A)であり、ステップ時間が 5分であ る場合、スィッチ 24d〜24fにおいて、(2— A)スィッチが選択される。さらに、サム口 一タリスイッチ 44で +ボタンが選択されて数字 5が表示されるように押される。この状 態でスィッチ 24aが選択されると、中央演算素子 CPU26によってタイマ 36が動作し 5 分を計時始める。タイマ 36の減算が開始されて、残時間が 7セグメント LED46に表 示される。 When power is turned on by the power switch 18, power is supplied from the power supply 16 to the variable frequency generation means 6, the amplification means 8, the control means 10, and the display means 14. [0053] Subsequently, when the meridian to be stimulated in the meridian selection switch, the timer selection switch, and the signal generation switch which is the switch 24 is, for example, the gastric meridian (2-A) and the step time is 5 minutes, the switch In 24d to 24f, the (2-A) switch is selected. In addition, the + button is selected with the thumb switch 44 and pressed so that the number 5 is displayed. When switch 24a is selected in this state, timer 36 operates by central processing unit CPU26 and starts measuring 5 minutes. Timer 36 subtraction starts and the remaining time is displayed on the 7-segment LED46.
[0054] 続いて、中央演算素子 CPU26は専用メモリ(ROM) 34から(2— A)に対応する 20  [0054] Subsequently, the central processing unit CPU26 corresponds to (2-A) from the dedicated memory (ROM) 34 20
X lKHzの周波数の信号波形を意味する PWM波形を読み出して信号発生部 28で デジタル波形を生成させてローパスフィルタ 30へ送出する。ローパスフィルタ 30は高 周波成分をフィルタリングして VC032へ送出する。  The PWM waveform, which means a signal waveform with a frequency of X lKHz, is read out, a digital waveform is generated by the signal generator 28 and sent to the low-pass filter 30. The low pass filter 30 filters the high frequency component and sends it to the VC032.
[0055] VC032は、中央演算素子 CPU26が生成してローパスフィルタ 30を通過した信号 波から三角波を生成する。 The VC032 generates a triangular wave from the signal wave generated by the central processing element CPU26 and passed through the low-pass filter 30.
[0056] 三角波 SIN波変換器 36は、この三角波を正弦波に変換する。この正弦波を可変抵 抗 38と減衰器 40によって適正な電流または電圧の信号に減衰させる。減衰された 信号波は電極 12に印加される。この電極力も被治験者の手首力も足首に印加される ことで、経絡 2— Aに対してのみ作用させることができる。 Triangular wave SIN wave converter 36 converts this triangular wave into a sine wave. This sine wave is attenuated to an appropriate current or voltage signal by the variable resistor 38 and the attenuator 40. The attenuated signal wave is applied to the electrode 12. This electrode force and the subject's wrist force can be applied only to the meridian 2-A by being applied to the ankle.
[0057] 以上のように構成することで任意の経絡に適切な強度周波数の信号を適切な時間 間隔で容易に印加可能である。 [0057] With the configuration described above, a signal having an intensity frequency appropriate for an arbitrary meridian can be easily applied at an appropriate time interval.
[0058] 信号生成中に一時停止スィッチ 24bが選択されると、残時間が表示された状態で 停止するとともに信号生成も停止する。 If the pause switch 24b is selected during signal generation, the remaining time is displayed and the signal generation is also stopped.
[0059] 一方、停止スィッチ 24cが選択された場合は、信号が停止されるとともに 7セグメント[0059] On the other hand, when the stop switch 24c is selected, the signal is stopped and 7 segments
LED46表示がリセットされる。 LED46 display is reset.
[0060] これらのボタンの選択結果は、可変周波数発生手段 6に対する電気信号の伝達と なる。可変周波数発生手段 6は、選択されたボタンに基づく低周波電流を生成する。 [0060] The selection result of these buttons is the transmission of an electric signal to the variable frequency generating means 6. The variable frequency generating means 6 generates a low frequency current based on the selected button.
[0061] 低周波電流は、増幅手段 8で増幅されて導線を通過して電極 12へ印加される。一 方、ボタンの選択結果は制御手段 10へも伝達される。選択結果によって算出された 選択した周波数を表示手段 14に表示させる。 [0062] 選択されたボタンに基く低周波を印加された電極力 被治験者の手首力 足首に 印加されることで、経絡 2—Aに対してのみ作用させることができる。すなわち、周波 数によって印加させる経絡を選択できるため、特定の疾病に対して特定のつぼでは なく経絡に渡って作用させる必要がある場合に、経絡を構成する全てのつぼを刺激 する必要が無いと言う効果がある。これは、刺激するための時間の短縮を図ることが できる。また,つぼの正確な位置を知らな 、一般人でも容易に施行可能である。 The low frequency current is amplified by the amplifying means 8, passes through the lead wire, and is applied to the electrode 12. On the other hand, the button selection result is also transmitted to the control means 10. The selected frequency calculated from the selection result is displayed on the display means 14. [0062] Electrode force applied with a low frequency based on the selected button Wrist force of the subject Can be applied only to the meridian 2-A by being applied to the ankle. In other words, since the meridians to be applied can be selected according to the frequency, when it is necessary to act on meridians instead of specific vases for a specific disease, it is not necessary to stimulate all the vases constituting the meridians There is an effect to say. This can reduce the time for stimulation. It can also be easily performed by ordinary people without knowing the exact position of the pot.
[0063] また、周波数さえ間違えなければ「つぼ」に印加させる必要が無いため、「つぼ」の 位置を誤って「つぼ」でな 、部分を刺激することもなくなると 、う効果を有する。  [0063] Further, since there is no need to apply the voltage to the "claw" unless the frequency is correct, the position of the "cage" is not "claw" by mistake, and there is no effect of stimulating the part.

Here, a conductive paste is applied to the head portion 50 of the electrode attached to the fabric band 54 and arranged so as to come into contact with the skin of the patient. The fabric band 54 is fixed by crimping the hook-and-loop fastener 56 to the fabric band 54.
[0073] 電極 12は導線によって治療器 2の筐体の内部にある増幅手段 8と接続される。 [0073] The electrode 12 is connected to the amplifying means 8 inside the casing of the treatment device 2 by a conductive wire.
[0074] 次に治療器 2の表面に設けられる電源スィッチ 18の操作によって、各手段と電源 1 6とが接続される。続ヽて経絡個別周波数切替手段 4である治療器 2の表面に配置さ れた lk、 10k等の単位ボタン 62と利得を示す利得ボタン 64と、波形を選択する波形 ボタン 66と、周波数の数値を選択する数値ボタン 60と、利得を連続的に変更するボ リューム 24とが設けられ、表 1に従い所望の経絡に適切な周波数を選択する。例え ば、経絡 1— Aに対して低周波電流を印加する際は、単位ボタン 62は 1Kであり、波 形ボタン 66は sinが選択され、利得ボタン 64は 20dBが選択され、数値ボタン 60は 1 6が選択される。 Next, each means and the power source 16 are connected by operating the power switch 18 provided on the surface of the treatment device 2. Next, the unit buttons 62 such as lk and 10k, the gain button 64 indicating the gain, the waveform button 66 for selecting the waveform, and the numerical value of the frequency arranged on the surface of the treatment device 2 which is the meridian individual frequency switching means 4. A numeric button 60 for selecting and a volume 24 for continuously changing the gain are provided, and the frequency appropriate for the desired meridian is selected according to Table 1. For example, when applying low-frequency current to meridian 1-A, unit button 62 is 1K, waveform button 66 is selected sin, gain button 64 is selected 20dB, and numeric button 60 is 1 6 is selected.
[0075] これらのボタンの選択結果は、可変周波数発生手段 6に対する電気信号の伝達と なる。可変周波数発生手段 6は、選択されたボタンに基づく低周波電流を生成する。  [0075] The selection result of these buttons is transmission of an electric signal to the variable frequency generating means 6.
