Wireless tattoo applicator system

摘要

A wireless tattoo applicator system includes a wireless tattoo applicator having a frame, a wireless receiver mechanically coupled to the frame, at least one coil mechanically coupled to the frame, an armature pivotally coupled to the frame adjacent the at least one coil, a spring mounted to the frame and applying a force to the armature in a first direction, a needle assembly mechanically coupled to the armature and free to move in a reciprocating manner, a battery power supply mechanically coupled to the frame and selectively electrically couplable to the at least one coil and operable, when coupled to the at least one coil, to energize the at least one coil to create a magnetic field causing the armature to be pulled in a second direction opposite the first direction, and a control circuit communicatively coupled to the receiver and operable to couple and decouple the battery power supply from the at least one coil at a selectable frequency. A wireless tattoo applicator controller remote from the wireless tattoo applicator includes first and second antennas, an antenna selector switch communicatively coupled to the first antenna and the second antenna and operable to activate the first antenna, the second antenna, or both, a wireless transmitter communicatively coupled to the antenna selector switch, and a processor communicatively coupled to the antenna selector switch and the wireless transmitter and operable to cause the wireless transmitter to broadcast a tattoo operating instruction to the wireless tattoo applicator.

主权项

1. A wireless tattoo applicator system for driving a rotary drive tattoo applicator comprising:
a wireless tattoo applicator including:
a frame;a wireless receiver mechanically coupled to the frame;a motor housed by the frame;an armature coupled to the frame and adapted for reciprocating movement relative to the frame;a rotary drive applicator interconnecting the motor and the armature, wherein the rotary drive applicator converts rotational motion of the motor to the reciprocating motion of the armature;a needle assembly mechanically coupled to the armature and free to move in a reciprocating manner, wherein the reciprocating movement of the armature transfers to the needle assembly to drive the needle;a battery power supply mechanically coupled to the frame and selectively electrically couplable to the rotary drive applicator to energize the at least rotary drive applicator to create the reciprocating motion of the armature; anda control circuit communicatively coupled to the receiver and operable to control the battery power supply to the motor at a selectable frequency to alter the rotational motion of the motor thereby altering the reciprocating motion of the armature;wherein the rotary drive applicator interacts with the reciprocating armature to provide a constant velocity wave motion effecting an adjustable preselected reciprocating depth provided by a rotary mechanism, which delivers a constant velocity reciprocating wave motion to the needle, directly driving the needle at an adjustable predefined relative position and an adjustable preselected reciprocating speed providing a constant velocity reciprocating wave motion to the needle.
