Description

The invention relates to medical equipment, namely to devices for implementing a comprehensive therapeutic effect using vibrational massage and an alternating magnetic field on the surface of an organism of a large area, and can find application mainly for the treatment of diseases of the pelvic organs.

A device for a physiotherapeutic effect on body tissues for treating inflammatory processes is known, comprising a housing comprising at least a working part, a handle, a current lead element and made of plastic mass, tightly fitting a heating system located in the body of the housing, the electric heater of which is made in the form of a winding, connected through a current lead element with an electric power unit and placed on a supporting element located inside the housing along the axis of its symmetry with deepening into the handle body to the housing, the supporting element is made in the form of a tube of non-magnetic material with a freely installed shock element in its cavity, formed between a guide with a spring fixed to the tube and a restrictive sleeve, while the housing has a working surface with at least one convex part for vibration massage, and the convex part of the working surface of the housing is made in the form of a tuber with a height of not more than 5 mm from its base (RF patent No. 2224485, IPC A61F 7/12, publ. 02/27/2004).

The disadvantage of this device is the invasive nature of the effect, which requires intervention in the rectum, has a number of contraindications (hemorrhoids, rectal fissures, neoplasms) and often causes difficulty and psychological rejection by the patient of the treatment procedure.

Closest to the proposed device is a complex therapeutic effect (using heat, vibration massage and an alternating magnetic field) on the surface of a large area of the body, containing a body of non-magnetic material with one moving part protruding above it in the form of a tuber, an electric power supply unit, a control winding , an electric heater and a shock element, two permanent cylindrical magnets located coaxially and facing each other with the same poles, and The whisker is made in the form of a hemisphere with a central window in its upper part, and a flat elastic membrane is attached to it along the window contour with one of the magnets mounted on it, at the upper end of which a hemispherical impact element rigidly connected with the membrane is located, located in the cavity of the hillock, the second magnet is mounted on the flat part of the housing and placed inside the control winding, mounted on the same part of the housing coaxially with both magnets, the electric heater is made in the form of an elastic plate located on the top Asti housing symmetrically about the impactor, and outputs the electric power supply unit connected to the electric heater and the stochastic input pulse generator, whose output is connected to the control winding (RF patent for utility model №79428, IPC A61N 2/00, publ. January 10, 2009 - a prototype).

This design has disadvantages:

- the therapeutic effectiveness of the device decreases in proportion to the weight of the patient;

- the device does not provide a therapeutic effect in patients of men weighing more than 70 kg due to the fragility of the structure and a significant deterioration in vibration and magnetic field parameters;

- low reliability and low durability of the device due to the possibility of its destruction due to the difficulty of ensuring the alignment of the lower and upper magnets in the design, since the body can be deformed under the influence of the patient’s mass and the center of the moving part can move from the vertical axis, which reduces the vibration amplitude the moving part and the appearance of torque in the position of the upper magnet and, therefore, unacceptable loads on the elastic membrane, leading to its failure;

- the presence of a heating element excludes the possibility of using a device for the prevention of prostatitis as the most common disease.

The technical result of the invention is to increase the effectiveness of therapeutic effects by providing stable therapeutic parameters of vibration and magnetic field regardless of the patient’s mass, increasing the reliability and durability of the device, ensuring the optimal combination of convenience, simplicity and safety of the procedure.

The physiotherapeutic device comprises (Fig. 1) a case made of non-magnetic material and a membrane 1 made of elastic elastic material (for example, silicone rubber) located inside the case, a pusher 2 with a lower flat side and an upper convex shock surface 3, a control winding 4, two located coaxially and facing each other by the same poles of the permanent magnet 5, 6, the first of which is connected to the pusher 2 and the membrane 1, and the second is placed inside the control winding 4, mounted on a supporting base 7 coaxially with both permanent magnets 5, 6, a plate 8 with a central hole, the upper and lower cups 9, 10 for coaxially fixing the corresponding two permanent magnets 5, 6 and at least three mounting posts 11 (Fig. 2) with a flat-shaped ring 12 fixed at their ends, made in particular of getinax. These racks 11 mounting provide centering of the control winding 4 relative to the first and second permanent magnets 5, 6.

The carrier base 7 is made of solid non-magnetic material. The control winding 4 (inductance coil) is fixed in the center of the bearing base 7. Coaxially with it to the bearing base 7 is the second permanent magnet 6. A shock impact unit consisting of a flat-shaped getinax ring 12 is fixed over the control winding 4, membrane 1, plate 8 (from silumin), the first permanent magnet 5 and the pusher 2. A lateral (softening) gasket 20 is mounted along the edge of the bearing base 7 so that the plate 8 is on the same level with it. The lower and upper gaskets 19, 18 are attached below the bearing base 7 and on top of the impact unit. The impact unit with the softening specified gaskets 18, 19, 20 and the control unit 23 is placed in a removable cover 17 with a zipper.

The control winding 4 is made in the form of an inductor with a frame 14. The upper and lower cups 9,10 are made with a Central hole for the mounting element. The upper cup 9 through the mounting Central hole 26 in the membrane 1 is rigidly connected to the flat side of the pusher 2 by the first fastener 15, and the lower cup 10 is rigidly connected to the base 7 by the second fastener 16. These fasteners 15, 16 are made in the form of rivets.

Thus, the device contains an impact unit, consisting of a second permanent magnet 6, mounted in the center of the base 7, a control winding 4 (inductor) located on the base 7 so that the second permanent magnet 6 is located inside and in the center of the control winding 4 , a plate 8 with an elastic element 1 fixed thereon, a first permanent magnet 5 and a pusher 2, and a plate 8 with a first permanent magnet 5, an elastic element 1 and a control winding 4 are attached to the supporting base 7 through racks 11 to they are strictly coaxial with each other and with the second permanent magnet 6. In this case, the membrane 1 with the first permanent magnet 5 and the pusher 2 is clamped along the contour between the getinax ring 12 and the silumin plate 8, which, in turn, are fastened with screws using the posts 11 (not shown) are attached to the supporting base 7 coaxially with the second magnet 6.

The housing in a removable cover 17 is made collapsible with the upper, lower and side (softening) gaskets 18, 19, 20 of elastic material, and the outer side of the upper gasket 18 is the upper convex working surface 13 of the housing. The lower gasket 19 is installed under the supporting base 7. The lateral gasket 20 is made in the form of an annular support, which provides the possibility of a stable comfortable safe sitting of the patient on the working surface 13 of the housing. The gasket 21 serves to soften the bearing base 7.

The side gasket 20 is made with a notch forming a pocket 22 to accommodate the control unit 23. The control unit 23 is made with a quasi random pulse generator (not shown), the output of which is connected to the control winding 4, with the possibility of power supply from an external electric network of 220 V. The plate 8 is attached by three fasteners 24 to three racks 11, respectively (Fig. 1, 2, 3, 4).

The membrane 1 (Fig. 5) is made in the middle part convex with a flat top 25, for example, in the form of a hollow truncated cone located in the hole of the plate 8 in such a way that the diameter of this hole corresponds to the diameter of the larger base of the hollow truncated cone, and has a central and six peripheral holes 26, 27 (Fig. 6) for the corresponding fasteners (rivet and screws with nuts). Six holes in the membrane 1 are necessary in order to first fasten the silumin plate 8 with silicone screws, the silicone rubber membrane 1 and the getinax ring 12 into one assembly through three holes in the membrane 1 and ring 12 located at 120 degrees, and then attach this assembly to three posts 11 through the other three peripheral holes 27 in the membrane 1 and the getinax ring 12.

The membrane 1 with a flat top 25 is fixed by the edge between the flat ring 12 and the plate 8, and a flat top 25 between the lower flat side of the pusher 2 and the upper surface of the first permanent magnet 5. The upper cup 9 is rigidly connected to the flat base through the mounting center hole 26 in the membrane 1 the pusher 2, and the lower cup 10 is rigidly connected to the supporting base 7, and the housing is made with the upper convex working surface 13.

The device operates as follows. In the initial state, when the power of the control unit 23 is turned off, the first (upper) permanent magnet 5 with the pusher 2 tends to push off from the second (lower) magnet 6, which is rigidly fixed on the supporting base 7, by bending the membrane 1 from silicone rubber, rigidly fixed on the plate 8 from silumin, which, in turn, is rigidly attached to the supporting base 7. At the same time, an external upper convex working surface 13 with a tuber is created on the surface of the device at the location of the first magnet 5 with the pusher 2.

The patient is located on the outer upper working surface 13 so that its convex part (tubercle) rests on the perineum in the prostate region, turns on the device in continuous vibration mode or in modulation mode by pulses. When the power of the control unit 23 is turned on, a sinusoidal voltage of 50 Hz is supplied to the control winding 4 (inductor) and an alternating magnetic field is created inside it. This alternating field in one half-cycle increases the magnetic field between the first and second permanent magnets 5, 6, in another half-cycle reduces it. Accordingly, with an increase in the resulting magnetic field, the first (upper) magnet 5 shifts even more upward and stretches the membrane 1 from silicone rubber more, increasing the tuber, and with a decrease in the resulting magnetic field, the force stretching the membrane 1 decreases, and it contracts, thereby displacing the first 5 magnet down from its middle position. The magnitude of the hillock decreases. Changing the position of the first magnet 5 with the pusher 2 attached to it up and down relative to its middle position with the frequency of the supply voltage of the control winding 4 (inductance coil) creates mechanical vibrations of the outer upper convex working surface 13 of the device body.

The first and second permanent magnets 5, 6 are facing each other with the same poles and tend to push off, so the membrane 1 is stretched from silicone rubber and a tuber is formed under the removable cover 17. Upon receipt from the control unit 23 of the power supply to the control winding 4 (inductor) of an alternating electric voltage, the magnetic field between the first upper and second lower magnets 5, 6 changes under the influence of an alternating magnetic field of the control winding 4 (inductor) both in the direction of increase and downward. Accordingly, the magnitude of the hill increases or decreases synchronously with the frequency of the supply voltage of the control winding 4 (inductance coil). Thus, a vibration is generated in the area of the hillock. To enhance efficiency from the effects of vibration, the device provides a modulation mode of continuous vibration using a quasi-random pulse generator.

Under the influence of vibrational massage in the patient's prostate area, blood circulation improves. The magnetic field from the first permanent magnet 5 penetrates the patient’s body to a depth of at least 5 cm and also contributes to the treatment process.

The claimed device provides the following modes: simultaneous exposure to vibration (vibration massage) and a magnetic field according to a random law; simultaneous exposure to vibration (vibration massage) and a magnetic field according to a regular (nonrandom) law; exposure to a magnetic field. The sequence of modes is determined taking into account the individual characteristics of the patient. The number of procedures and their duration is determined by the attending physician.

In the device, the previously mentioned disadvantages of the prototype are absent, since, firstly, there is no heating element, which removes the restriction on its use in the prevention of prostatitis, and secondly, the alignment of the location of the first upper and second lower magnets 5, 6 is ensured by attaching them to a common supporting base 7, and the patient’s body weight acts on the side pad 20, which is not connected with the moving part and is also fixed on the supporting base 7.

The proposed magnetic massage device allows, regardless of the patient’s mass, to significantly increase the effectiveness of the treatment of a common disease of the pelvic organ, such as prostatitis. In addition, it has a simple design, reliable, durable, convenient, stable and safe to use, which allows it to be used at home.
