MAGNETOTHERAPEUTIC APPLICATOR DEVICE COMBINED WITH INFRARED AND VISIBLE RADIATION BANDWIDTH RADIATORS Russian patent published in 2003 - IPC

FIELD: medical engineering. SUBSTANCE: device has treating patient with permanent magnetic field of right- and left-hand rotation and with traveling electromagnetic field of infrared and visible bandwidth radiation of right- and left-hand rotation. All acting field sources are conformably adjacent to patient body skin. Magnets are manufactured as inductance coils mounted in flexible dielectric plate manufactured from porous material with optical transparent envelope. The coils are arranged in radial chains displaced by angle β= 360 deg/n, where n is the chain number. Radial chains of alternating sequences of infrared and visible light photodiodes are arranged between magnet chains. The neighboring magnet and photodiode chains are arranged with α = 180^°/n. deviation relative to each other. The magnets and photodiodes are connected to the radial electric power supply busses in each chain, the latter being connected to the control unit. Central electromagnet is mounted in the plate center. The control unit has programmed commutator unit for switching inductance coils and photodiodes in prescribed sequence. EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness of combined treatment using several physical factors. 3 dwg
