Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a wearable device which utilizes electromagnetic waves to suppress the rapid growth of diseased tissue. Background Art

[0002] With the advancement of science and technology, inhibiting the rapid growth of human diseased tissues through the action of electrical signals is a new treatment method developed in recent years. Studies have shown that electrical signals have a more obvious effect on tumor cells in the late and late stages of mitosis, which can directly affect the quality and survival of the daughter cells that are divided. Moreover, the electrical properties of tumor cells are different from those of healthy cells. Compared with normal cells, tumor cells have relatively higher electrical properties (conductivity and dielectric constant). The impact of the external electrical environment on tumor cells is more obvious than that on normal cells. The voltage generated in tumor cells is higher than that in normal cells. The response of tumor cells to the external electrical environment is more prominent during cell division. When the rapidly growing diseased cells are in the late and late stages of mitosis and are about to split into two daughter cells, a key geometric structure "cleavage furrow" appears in the center. The current lines generated by the application of electromagnetic waves enter from one pole of the daughter cell and then pass through the other pole of the cell, highly concentrated in the cleavage furrow. The organelles guided by the current lines gather toward the cleavage furrow, increasing the membrane pressure there, and eventually the cells rupture from the cleavage furrow due to the "hammer effect". In particular, the direction of the current can only destroy cell division when it is parallel to the long axis of cell division. It can be seen that the effect of electromagnetic waves on rapidly growing diseased cells is closely related to the direction of the electromagnetic waves and the direction of the long axis of tumor cell division. When the direction of the electromagnetic waves is parallel to the direction of the long axis of tumor cell division, the effect on tumor cells is the greatest. As the deviation angle between the direction of the electromagnetic waves and the long axis of tumor cell division increases, the effect of the electromagnetic waves becomes smaller and smaller. Studies have shown that tumor cells will be affected by electromagnetic waves for more than 0.25 seconds. Due to the uncertainty of the direction of the long axis of tumor cell division, applying electromagnetic waves in multiple directions to the lesion area in a unit time will cause more tumor cells to be affected by the electromagnetic waves, thereby achieving better treatment effects.

[0003] In the prior art, ECCT is used to treat tumors. ECCT (capacitive electrode tumor therapy) is a method of treating tumors by using low-intensity and low-frequency (frequency <100KHz, intensity <30Vpp) electrostatic waves to polarize a device composed of several capacitive electrodes. This device can be connected to special clothing, and patients can wear the clothing every day. However, its hood-like appearance is too exaggerated. After wearing it, except for the eyes, nostrils and mouth, everything is covered, which feels very uncomfortable, especially in summer, it is hot and uncomfortable, and is not suitable for outdoor use.

[0004] Based on the above problems, it is necessary to design a device that can effectively treat patients and is convenient for patients to wear and improve their comfort. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a wearable device that uses electromagnetic waves to suppress the rapid growth of diseased tissue, which not only enhances the treatment effect but also improves the wearing comfort of the patient.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A wearable device that uses electromagnetic waves to inhibit the rapid growth of diseased tissues, comprising at least one signal source device, at least two electromagnetic wave transmitting devices, and at least one wearable device; the signal source device is used to generate electrical energy with intensity, frequency, and waveform characteristics, and transmit it to the electromagnetic wave transmitting device to control the electromagnetic wave transmitting device to generate electromagnetic waves with corresponding characteristics; the electromagnetic wave transmitting device is fixedly arranged on the wearable device, and the shape of the wearable device is adapted to the part of the human body that needs to be treated, so that the wearable device can better fit the human body.

[0008] Furthermore, the electromagnetic wave transmitting device is fixedly mounted on the wearable device, and after being worn on a human body, the transmitting device and the human body are kept in an insulated state.

[0009] Furthermore, the wearable device is also provided with a fixing device for wearing or fixing the wearable device to the human body.

[0010] Furthermore, a transmitting device isolation area for insulating and isolating any two electromagnetic wave transmitting devices is provided inside the wearable device.

[0011] Furthermore, the electromagnetic wave emitting device comprises an emitter made of a conductor, a side of the emitter facing the treatment part of the human body is parallel to the surface of the treatment part of the human body, and the electromagnetic wave emitting device is electrically connected to the signal source device.

[0012] Furthermore, the signal source device includes at least one signal generating unit, at least one control switching unit and at least one power supply unit; the signal generating unit is used to generate a signal with intensity, frequency and waveform characteristics, and transmit it to the electromagnetic wave transmitting device through the control switching unit.

[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a control system, which can control each electromagnetic wave transmitting device to transmit electromagnetic waves in turn according to a switching sequence, and the switching sequence is orderly switching or disorderly switching.

[0014] Furthermore, when the electromagnetic waves emitted by the electromagnetic wave emitting device are in multiple directions, the angles of the electromagnetic waves generated by the electromagnetic wave emitting device are evenly distributed in each direction. The beneficial effect is that the electromagnetic waves are evenly distributed in each direction, covering as many different cell division directions as possible, and maximally ensuring the time for cells to receive the action of electromagnetic waves, thereby enhancing the treatment effect.

[0015] The wearable device of the present invention utilizes electromagnetic waves to inhibit the rapid growth of diseased tissue. An electromagnetic wave transmitting device is disposed in the wearable device, and the shape of the wearable device is configured to match the part of the human body to be treated, so that the wearable device can better fit the human body, improve the wearing comfort of the patient, and thus better treat the patient.

[0020] The wearable device for suppressing the rapid growth of diseased tissue by using electromagnetic waves of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Embodiment 1 of the wearable device for suppressing the rapid growth of diseased tissue by using electromagnetic waves of the present invention is as follows Figures 1 to 3As shown, there is no less than one signal source device 1, no less than two electromagnetic wave emitting devices 6, and no less than one wearable device 2. The signal source device 1 is used to generate electrical energy with intensity, frequency, and waveform characteristics and transmit it to the electromagnetic wave emitting device 6. By changing one or more of the intensity, frequency, waveform, and output timing of the electrical energy, the characteristics of the electromagnetic waves generated in the electromagnetic wave emitting device 6 are changed. The electromagnetic wave emitting device 6 is used to be close to the skin of the diseased area, and the characteristic electrical energy generated by the signal source device 1 is converted into characteristic electromagnetic waves, which are applied to the diseased area. The wearable device 2 is equipped with an electromagnetic wave emitting device 6, which is worn on one or more parts of the body. The electromagnetic wave emitting device 6 is conveniently fixed to the surface of the body to generate at least one electromagnetic wave direction of sufficient intensity in the treatment area to inhibit the rapidly growing diseased tissue.

[0022] Among them, the signal source device 1 includes at least one signal generating unit, a control switching unit, and a power supply unit. The signal generating unit includes one or more components of a frequency synthesis or oscillation circuit, a switching circuit, a boost circuit, a filter circuit, and a clock circuit, and generates a signal with intensity, frequency, and waveform characteristics, which is transmitted to the transmitting device through the control switching unit, and the frequency of the generated electric energy is 50kHz to 1000kHz, and the peak voltage is not less than 10V. The control switching unit is used to transmit the signal generated by the signal generating unit to one or more designated electromagnetic wave transmitting devices 6 in a set manner. The power supply unit provides electric energy to each unit. The shortest duration of the characteristic electric energy generated by the signal source device 1 to the electromagnetic wave transmitting device 6 through the cable is not less than 0.1 seconds.

[0023] Among them, the electromagnetic wave emitting device 6 is composed of a conductor with a certain area, including but not limited to a planar conductor, a mesh conductor, and a linear conductor. One surface of the conductor is flat on the surface of the patient's lesion area, is parallel to the surface of the treatment area, and is insulated from the treatment area. The conductor is connected to the signal source device 1 through a cable.

[0024] The outer surface of the wearable device 2 is provided with a protective layer 21 that completely covers the wearable device 2. The interior of the wearable device 2 is provided with a transmitter isolation area 22, which is used to insulate and isolate any two electromagnetic wave transmitters 6. The wearable device 2 is also provided with a fastening belt for fixing the wearable device 2 to the human body. In other embodiments, the fastening belt can also be replaced with a lace made of other elastic materials such as an elastic band, or the whole or part of the wearable device can be directly made of elastic materials. The wearable device 2 is in the shape of a hat and is worn on the human head to treat the diseased area of ​​the head.

[0025] The electromagnetic wave emitting device 6 has multiple and corresponding electromagnetic waves generated in the treatment area. In order to improve the treatment effect, at least two or more electromagnetic wave directions should be maintained, and the angles of the directions should be distributed as evenly as possible. When the electromagnetic wave directions generated by the electromagnetic wave emitting device 6 are three, the electromagnetic wave directions generated by the three electromagnetic wave emitting devices 6 are along the three directions of the X-axis, the Y-axis, and the Z-axis, and electromagnetic waves are applied to the diseased area. When the electromagnetic wave directions generated in the treatment area are greater than one and there is only one electromagnetic wave direction at the same time, the order of emitting electromagnetic waves in various directions is switched in time sequence, wherein switching in time sequence includes switching in order or switching in disorder. When there are more than two signal source devices 1 that output electrical energy to the corresponding two electromagnetic wave emitting devices 6 at the same time, the electromagnetic waves generated by each electromagnetic wave emitting device 6 will produce vector superposition, generating electromagnetic waves of new directions and intensities.

[0026] The structural diagram of the electromagnetic wave transmitting device 6 is shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the emitter 4 is a conductive layer, which is generally a plate-shaped structure composed of conductive materials, and can be made of a metal film, a metal mesh, or a metal wire braided layer with stretchability, or even made of soft conductive plastic or conductive rubber. The conductive layer has insulating layers 5 inside and outside, respectively, and the conductive layer is connected to the output end of the signal source device 1 through a wire.

[0027] When the wearable device of the present invention is used, the electromagnetic wave emitting device 6 is first set in the wearable device 2, and the wearable device 2 is set in a hat shape and worn on the patient's head, so that the wearable device 2 can better fit the human body, improve the patient's wearing comfort, and thus better treat the patient. Moreover, by setting multiple electromagnetic wave emitting devices 6 in the wearable device 2 to emit electromagnetic waves in different directions, more diseased cells are affected by the electromagnetic waves, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effect of the device.

[0028] In other embodiments, the radiator of the electromagnetic wave emitting device is composed of two-sided conductors, which can be composed of a planar conductor, or a wire winding body, a wire braided body, and a planar conductor with a mesh that is equivalent to a planar conductor.

[0029] In other embodiments, the electromagnetic wave transmitting device may be disposed outside the wearable device instead of inside the wearable device.

[0030] In other embodiments, the shape of the wearable device 2 can also be a vest shape, shorts shape, etc. to adapt to different diseased areas.

[0031] In other embodiments, the side of the emitter facing the treatment site of the human body may not be parallel to the surface of the treatment site of the human body.

[0032] In other embodiments, the wearable device may not be provided with a fastening belt. In this case, the wearable device may be fixed to the corresponding part of the human body by other commonly used fixing methods.

[0033] In other embodiments, the protective layer provided on the outer surface of the wearable device may also only cover the part of the wearable device in contact with the human body, without having to cover the entire outer surface of the wearable device.

[0034] Although the present invention has been described in detail above by general description and specific embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that some modifications or improvements can be made to the present invention. Therefore, these modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention all belong to the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
