[0001] Apparatus for the emission of a combined flow of electrons and electromagnetic radiations
comprising two electric circuits (2, 2') having opposite polarities, positive (+)
and negative (-).
[0002] Each circuit (2, 2') comprises an electric or electronic device (7, 7'), suitable
to supply a direct current whose voltage is comprised between 4000 and 80,000 V, and
whose intensity is comprised between 0.05 and 0.5 mA, and a plate-like end conductor
(9, 9') provided with one or more bundles of carbon fibres which act as pointed conductors,
which terminal is connected to the outlet (8, 8') of said electric or electronic device.
[0003] When the two plates (9, 9') provided with bundles of carbon fibres (11, 11') are
positioned and approached one in front of the other, a combined flow of electrons
and electromagnetic waves circulating from pole (-) to pole (+) is obtained.
[0004] This invention relates to an apparatus for the emission of a combined flow of electrons
and electromagnetic radiations.
[0005] The apparatus of this invention has a specific application in the medical sector
for the therapeutic treatment of stimulation and revitalization of living cells and
in particular human cells.
[0006] In fact, it is known that when a continuous flow of electrons is directed against
a human body, a current forms which passes, more or less completely, through the body,
according to a complicated exchange operation between the atoms that make up the cells,
causing in this way an energy exchange between the cells and the generation in their
inside of electrochemical phenomena such as to create oxygenation and revitalization
conditions.
[0007] It is also known that, because of their structure, living cells are animated by vibrations
produced by the continuous action of external electromagnetic radiations (cosmic rays).
When a cell, thanks to the conformation of its nucleus, and in particular to the precise
length and structure of its filament, which is different from cell to cell, even of
the same type, is excited by a vibratory action produced by the electromagnetic radiations,
starts vibrating and resonating with an own specific frequency.
[0008] Namely, as a consequence of its shape and the size of its filament, each cell vibrates
according to an own wavelength. It ensues from this that all the cells that form an
organ or a body as a whole, vibrate according to different wavelengths, even though
their magnitude order differs only to a minimum extent and comprises rather limited
frequency bands.
[0009] The cells, following lasting intensity variations of the above external electromagnetic
radiations, undergo vibratory alterations and modifications of the intracellular energy
system, and consequently they loose their original oscillatory capacities.
[0010] Due to this effect, the cells loose their functional capacity, reducing the intensity
and the coordination of the metabolic processes. The cells that are in such state
are usually called "depressed cells".
[0011] However, based on studies and researches carried out on said cell behaviour, it is
possible to regenerate the "depressed" cells by exciting them with a flow of large
spectrum artificial electromagnetic radiations, such as to comprise the frequencies
of all the cells of the human body.
[0012] With reference to humans, it can be assumed that many of the conditions of psycophysical
imbalance, such as asthenia, fatigue, depression, etc., may arise from imbalances
of the cellular biolectric system, caused either by variations of the electromagnetic
intensity which humans are usually submitted to in their environment, or by oxygenation
deficit in the inside of the cells.
[0013] It is known that said functional anomalies of the human cells can be overcome by
means of a treatment with a combined flow of electrons and electromagnetic radiations,
as living cells are characterized in that they always tend to resyntonize on their
original resonances.
[0014] GB-A-2 181 059 discloses an electrical medical instrument for increasing the metabolic
activity of desired cells by inducing electrical current flow through the cells to
be treated. The disclosed instrument comprises a source of direct electrical energy,
a pair of output terminals connected to a pair of electrodes which are adapted to
be placed in contact with healty tissue opposite one another across damaged tissue,
and means for generating from the energy source a voltage wave and impressing it across
the output terminals.
[0015] SU-A-1 183 110 - Database WPI, Section Ch, week 8616 - Derwent Publications, discloses
a depression treatment by polarising brain with direct current. The therapy involves
polarisation of the structure of the brain by direct current by placing two pairs
of electrodes with polar voltage in positions diametrically opposed on the surface
of the skin on the head.
[0016] Apparatuses are known that allow to emit combined electronic and electromagnetic
currents, utilizable for the aforementioned treatment. Such apparatuses comprise basically
an electric circuit formed by an electric or electronic device, such as for instance,
a transformer which, fed by alternated current from the mains, can supply at the outlet
a positive or negative direct current of high voltage and very low intensity, which
is conveyed to a conductor with pointed ends. Such pointed ends are directed towards
the concerned part of the body which is therefore swept over by the bundles of electronic
and electromagnetic radiations coming from said points.
[0017] However, these apparatuses have some drawbacks which reduce their effectiveness,
as will be precised in the following.
[0018] A first serious drawback ensues from the fact that, as the direct current available
from the transformer has one only polarity, negative or positive, the radiation flow
emitted by the partly pointed ends of the conductor, disperses, tending to circulate
at the epidermic level and groundwards, flowing in this way outside the body part
instead of penetrating in depth, as the system formed by the pointed ends of the conductor
and the patient's body has a certain electric resistivity.
[0019] A further serious drawback is due to the fact that the pointed ends of the conductor
allow to have rather limited radiation flow capacities and therefore such apparatuses
provide very low performances.
[0020] Object of this invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.
[0021] In its more general aspects, this invention allows to achieve this and further objects
thanks to an apparatus which comprises two electric circuits, provided each with an
electric or electronic device, such as for instance a transformer with rectifying
diodes, capable of providing at the outlet a direct current of polarity opposite from
one another, high voltage (4000-80,000 V) and very low intensity (0.05-0.5 mA).
[0022] The electric or electronic devices of the two electric circuits supply direct currents
of opposite polarity, one positive (+) and one negative (-), to two plate-like conductors
equipped with at least a bundle of carbon fibres which act as pointed ends.
[0023] The subject matter of the present invention is, therefore, an apparatus for the emission
of a combined flow of electrons and electromagnetic radiations fed by an alternating
current distribution, comprising two electric circuits having opposite polarity, one
circuit having a positive polarity (+) and the other circuit having a negative polarity
(-), each electric circuit comprising an electric or electronic device transforming
the alternating current into direct current and delivering a direct current having
a voltage comprised between 4,000 and 80,000 V and an intensity comprised between
0.05 and 0.5 mA, and a plate-like end conductor connected to each outlet of said electric
or electronic device and provided with at least one bundle of pointed conductors.
[0024] Preferred embodiments of the invention are set out in dependent claims 2 to 9.
[0025] A further subject matter of the present invention is the above apparatus for use
in therapeutic/medical treatment for activating the cellular bioelectric system and
in a process of regeneration and revitalization of depressed cells of parts of a body
as set out in claims 10 and 11.
[0026] The apparatus of this invention allows to realize a combined flow of electrons and
of electromagnetic radiations, said flow being all the more consistent and better
distributed the higher is the number of bundles provided.
[0027] The arrangement of the plates with the carbon fibre bundles one in front of the other
allows to obtain a strong circulation of combined radiations from plate (-) to plate
(+). If a part or the whole body of a patient kept insulated from the ground is interposed
between said plates, said radiations pass through him, reaching also the innermost
organs.
[0028] The characteristics of the apparatus of this invention will be better understood
from the following detailed description, wherein reference is made to Fig. 1 which
shows the diagram of a preferred embodiment, supplied by ways of non limitative example
of said apparatus.
[0029] With reference to the aforementioned Fig. 1, the apparatus of this invention comprises
two electric circuits (2, 2'), fed by a same network of alternated current (for instance,
220 V a.c.) through a tap (3), a plug (5) and a switch (1).
[0030] Each electric circuit (2, 2') comprises an electric or electronic device (7, 7'),
such as for instance a transformer with rectifying diodes, which can supply each at
the outlet a direct current of opposite polarity relatively to one another, high voltage
and very low intensity.
[0031] In particular, said electric or electronic devices supply at the outlets (8, 8')
direct currents with a voltage of 4000-80,000 V and an intensity of 0.05-0.5 mA, one
of which has a (+) polarity in device (7) and the other one a (-) polarity in device
(7').
[0032] The above outlets are respectively connected to two plate-like conductors (9, 9').
Each plate (9, 9') is provided with one or more carbon fibre bundles (11, 11') (three
in Fig. 1), which act as pointed conductors. When these plate-like conductors (9,
9') are positioned and approached one in face of the other, a circulation of electronic
and large range electromagnetic radiations is obtained in the direction of arrow F
from pole (-) to pole (+). If a part of a body (15) (or the whole body), insulated
from the ground by means of a dielectric element (13), is placed between said plate-like
conductors (9, 9'), said part is passed through by said radiations, concerning in
this way all the cells that are present along the path of said radiations, even in
depth, which cells, as a consequence, are regenerated and revitalized.
[0033] The plate-like conductors (9, 9') are made from conductive materials, such as copper,
aluminium, etc.
[0034] The plate-like conductors (9, 9') may have any shape, such as square, rectangular,
triangular, polygonal or circular. The surface of the plate-like conductors (9, 9')
is not critical and depends on the surface of the body to be submitted to the radiations.
[0035] The number of carbon fibre bundles (11, 11') on each plate-like conductor (9, 9')
may range from 1 to 100 and more, based on the surface of the plate-like conductor
(9, 9'). Each carbon fibre bundle (11, 11') may have a surface of its cross-section
comprised between 0.001 and 10 mm
2, preferably between 0.1 and 2 mm
2, and is formed by a number of carbon fibres comprised between 50 and 10,000.
[0036] The dielectric element (13) may be a chair, an arm-chair or a bed with feet from
insulating plastic material. The plate-like conductors (9, 9') with the carbon fibre
bundles (11, 11') have generally the shape of mobile brushes, supported by articulated
or flexible arms, to make their application to the various parts of the human body
easier, placing them near the body and not in touch with the same.
[0037] The use of carbon fibres allows also to eliminate and to prevent possible electrostatic
shocks.
[0038] The apparatus of this invention is characterized also by the absence of harmful stimulations
and by a complete analgesia, as it activates the cellular bioelectric system without
contraindications, indepentently on the clinical conditions of the patient when he
is submitted to the action of the apparatus.
[0039] The cells that at the time of the application of the radiations are already in balanced
conditions, i.e. not "depressed", are not electrically modified, but remain in their
ideal balanced conditions.
[0040] While this invention has been described with reference to a specific realization,
many changes may be obviously made by those skilled in the art, in the light of the
above description.
