Multi-electrode acupuncture and electronic massage appts with cardiac rhythm synchronisation

摘要

The appts includes a cardiac rhythm sensor (1) which is attached to a finger or to the extremity of the patient's ear. The sensor generates low voltage signals which control sequential pulses of medium voltage applied to a number of electrodes (2). The pulses are generated by a converter (4) and formed by a sequencer (3). The appts is supplied by a 12 V battery with a charger (13) or via an ac/dc adaptor. An inverter (11) enables selection of the power supply type. A switch (10) controls the power supply of the appts while an LED (9) indicates when the appts is on or off. A potentiometer is provided for varying the amplitude of the medium voltage pulses.
