Title:
バイオセラミック繊維を用いた磁気療法デバイス
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2004503343
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A magnetotherapeutic device incorporates bio-ceramic fibers so as to provide simultaneous magnetotherapy and far infra-red wave therapy. Generally encased in clear plastic or the like, the magnetotherapeutic device of the present invention may take the form of a transparent disk having a plastic rim. A stainless cap may provide an attractive top surface into which a logo or symbol may be embossed. It also enhances the magnetic affects on the side opposite the stainless steel cap, the side that is applied to the body. A strong magnet such as one incorporating neodymium may underlie the stainless steel cap to provide magnetotherapy in the present invention. Bio-ceramic fibers emitting the far infra-red wavelengths of 8-14 microns underlie the strong neodymium magnet. A mat of woven bio-ceramic fibers or the like may provide such a structure. In order to provide ventilation and communication between the environment outside of the magnetotherapeutic device of the present invention, perforated or foramenous MYLAR(R) brand PET or similar may serve as a bottom cover encasing the stainless steel cap, neodymium magnet, bio-ceramic fibers, and the plastic case. The perforated or foramenous MYLAR(R) brand PET or similar cover may then provide better communication between the thermal radiation of the adjacent body and emittance of far infra-red waves by the bio-ceramic fibers.
