THERMOELECTRIC MASSAGING DEVICE Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC A61H23/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medical equipment and is intended for carrying out therapeutic health-improving body massage. Thermoelectric massaging device contains two massaging elements in form of semi-cylinders, with projections on their ends, located between them flat plate with cylindrical handles on edges and fixing caps, one of which is made stationary, and the other-detachable. Massaging elements are made from heat-conducting metal with various projections on cylindrical surface and installed with flat bases in thermal contact with soldered seams of thermoelectric modules pressed into flat plate, made from heat-insulating material. Along each massaging element sources of magnetic field for magnetic impact are placed. Massaging elements are fixed and pressed to soldered seams of thermoelectric modules by means of caps, put on adjacent semi-cylindrical projections of massaging elements. On surface of one of cylindrical handles made is thread for screwing on of fixing tube with thread on internal surface for detachable cap pressing and in the same handle circuits of thermoelectric modules feeding are laid to socket on its end.

EFFECT: extend functional possibilities of massaging device and increase its therapeutic efficiency due to simplification of preparation for massage, increase of time of procedure itself, as well as possibility of combined switching on of modes of temperature and magnetic impacts.
