Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de stimulation électrique et une unité adhésive remplaçable. Un dispositif de stimulation électrique, selon un mode de réalisation de la présente invention, comprend : une unité adhésive remplaçable ; et une unité de corps principal se couplant mécaniquement et électriquement à l'unité adhésive remplaçable de manière à pouvoir être fixée/retirée, l'unité adhésive remplaçable comprenant au moins une unité d'électrodes qui entre en contact avec la tête d'un utilisateur et qui applique un courant à la tête de l'utilisateur, et le corps principal comprenant une unité de commande qui commande de sorte qu'un état d'utilisation de l'unité adhésive remplaçable est détecté, et que, si l'état d'utilisation de l'unité adhésive remplaçable est un état neuf, le courant est appliqué à l'unité ou aux unités d'électrodes de l'unité adhésive remplaçable, et alors l'état d'utilisation de l'unité adhésive remplaçable passe à un état préusé si un temps d'usage de référence préétabli s'écoule.
