Abstract

La présente invention concerne le domaine technique du traitement médical électronique, et porte sur un régulateur de nerf crânien, comprenant un implant (1000) et une machine in vitro (2000). L'implant (1000) comprend un corps principal (1100) d'implant et au moins un groupe d'électrode (1200). Le groupe d'électrode (1200) est connecté électriquement au corps principal (1100) d'implant au moyen d'un fil (1300) d'électrode. Le corps principal (1100) d'implant comprend un récepteur d'énergie (1120) et une machine principale d'implant (1110). La machine in vitro (2000) comprend une machine principale de machine in vitro (2010) et un émetteur d'énergie (2020). L'émetteur d'énergie (2020) est relié électriquement à la machine principale de machine in vitro (2010) au moyen d'un conducteur de connexion (2030). Le récepteur d'énergie (1120) est conçu pour être couplé sans fil à l'émetteur d'énergie (2020) pour obtenir de l'énergie électrique à partir de la machine in vitro (2000) afin d'alimenter la machine principale d'implant (1110), et la machine principale d'implant (1110) est conçue pour être en liaison du type communication sans fil avec la machine principale de machine in vitro (2010). Pendant l'utilisation, la partie corps principal de l'implant (1000) est implantée sous le cortex de la partie arrière de l'oreille de l'utilisateur, et une électrode est amenée jusqu'à une région malade par pénétration sous-cutanée. Par conséquent, le fil d'électrode est plus court, et la réception de signaux d'interférence est réduite. L'électrode est une électrode de cortex, est placée entre la dure-mère et les os, et n'endommage pas le tissu cérébral. Une alimentation est fournie au moyen d'un couplage magnétique sans affecter la transmission du signal et l'acquisition du signal.
