SHOCK-WAVE GENERATOR Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: medicine, biology, oceanology. SUBSTANCE: shock-wave generator has flat spiral coil fixed in insulating case, metal diaphragm, capacitors, and controlled discharger; flat spiral coil is made in the form of at least two complanar spirals whose internal ends are interconnected and connected to second electrode of discharger through current-carrying component and external ends are arranged in complanar manner over circumference and spaced πD/n apart, where D is spiral coil diameter, n is number of complanar spirals; number of capacitors equals that of spirals; first electrode of each capacitor is connected to first electrode of discharger and second electrode of each capacitor is connected to external end of respective spiral. Capacitors, discharger, and spirals are connected through current-carrying components. EFFECT: enlarged functional capabilities. 4 cl, 5 dwg
