For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0038] The ultrasound and weak electrical stimulation combined treatment system provided by the embodiment of the present invention comprises: Figure 2 The hosts shown and Figure 1 The ultrasonic transducer 1 shown in the figure and the ultrasonic probe connecting line for connecting the host and the ultrasonic transducer 1, the ultrasonic probe connecting line has the function of identifying the continuous use time and the remaining service life of the ultrasonic transducer, and the identification principle is: an identification chip is arranged in the ultrasonic probe connecting line, the identification chip is connected with the ultrasonic transducer and the host, the identification chip times the working time of the ultrasonic transducer, and sends the timing result to the host for display on the display screen of the host, the identification chip is preset with the safe service life of the ultrasonic transducer, the identification chip compares the accumulated transducer use time each time with the safe service life time, if the accumulated transducer use time is greater than the safe service life time, a transducer service life expiration prompt message is generated and sent to the host and displayed on the display screen of the host.

[0042] In different contact states between the ultrasonic probe of the ultrasonic transducer and the human body, such as normal contact, incomplete contact, and no contact, the voltage / current signal value at the electrical input end of the ultrasonic transducer is different. Therefore, the present application uses the different mapping relationships between the different contact states between the ultrasonic probe and the human body and the voltage / current signal value at the electrical input end of the ultrasonic transducer to determine whether the ultrasonic transducer is currently in a safe use state. When it is determined to be in an unsafe use state of incomplete contact or no contact, the ultrasonic transducer is actively controlled to reduce the output power to ensure safe use.

[0043] The principles for safe use control of the weak electrical stimulation probe are the same as those for the ultrasonic transducer and will not be elaborated here.

[0044] Therefore, the technical core of the ultrasound and weak electric stimulation combined treatment system provided by the present invention to achieve control over the safe use of the ultrasonic transducer and the weak electric stimulation probe lies in: first, how to collect the voltage / current signal as the basis for safety control from the electrical input end of the ultrasonic transducer and the weak electric stimulation electrode; second, how to control the corresponding ultrasonic transducer and the weak electric stimulation electrode according to the collected voltage / current signal to adjust the output power according to the control requirements to ensure safe use.

[0045] The present invention solves the first core technical problem through the following solutions:

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, a first safety monitoring module 30 for collecting the voltage and / or current signal at the input end of the ultrasonic transducer 1 is added between the main controller 10 and the ultrasonic transducer 1, and a second safety monitoring module 50 for collecting the voltage and / or current signal at the input end of the weak electric stimulation electrode 2 is added between the main controller 10 and the weak electric stimulation electrode 2.

[0047] The first safety monitoring module 30 includes a signal sampling filtering and amplifying circuit 100 and an A / D conversion circuit 200. The signal sampling filtering and amplifying circuit 100 filters and amplifies the voltage and / or current signal collected at the electrical input end of the ultrasonic transducer 1 and inputs it to the A / D conversion circuit 200, and then inputs it to the main controller 10 after analog-to-digital conversion by the A / D conversion circuit 200.

Figure 7 The current signal amplifier circuit shown.

[0048] The A / D conversion chip U13 in the A / D conversion circuit 200 is as follows: Figure 8 As shown, the designated pins are Fig.10 The designated pin connections of the FPGA main controller shown are used to realize the electrical connection between the A / D conversion chip and the FPGA main controller.

[0049] The second safety monitoring module 50 includes a bidirectional optocoupler switch combination circuit 300, which inputs the voltage and / or current signal collected from the electrical input end of the weak electrical stimulation electrode 2 to the main controller 10.

[0050] The present invention solves the second core technical problem through the following scheme:

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, a transducer driving module 20 is added between the main controller 10 and the ultrasonic transducer 1 to drive the ultrasonic transducer 1 to adjust the output power according to the control requirements after performing signal processing on the first control signal generated by the main controller 10. An electrode driving module 40 is added between the main controller 10 and the weak electric stimulation electrode 2 to drive the weak electric stimulation electrode 2 to adjust the output power according to the control requirements after performing signal processing on the second control signal generated by the main controller 10.

[0052] The transducer driving module 20 and the electrode driving module 40 include a D / A conversion circuit, a signal amplification and power output circuit. The D / A conversion circuit converts the control signal sent by the main controller 10 into an analog signal and sends it to the signal amplification and power output circuit. The control signal is processed by the signal amplification and power output circuit and then outputs a driving signal to drive the corresponding ultrasonic transducer or weak electric stimulation electrode to output power according to the control requirements to ensure safe use. The D / A conversion circuit in the transducer driving module 20 and the electrode driving module 40 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the signal amplification and power output circuit is as follows Figure 4 shown.

[0054] In the above scheme, as a preferred embodiment, the main controller is an FPGA chip, and the number of FPGA chips is several to meet the connection requirements of the transducer driving module, the electrode driving module, the first safety monitoring module, and the second safety monitoring module to the FPGA chip. The signal connection between several FPGA chips constitutes the main control system of the host.

[0056] Step S1, the first safety monitoring module or the second safety monitoring module in the host collects the voltage and / or current signals of the electrical input terminals of the ultrasonic transducer and the weak electrical stimulation electrode respectively and sends them to the main controller;

[0057] Step S2: The main controller determines whether the current voltage and / or current value of the monitoring point is greater than a preset safety value based on the received voltage and / or current signal.

[0058] If so, a control signal is generated and output, the control signal including a first control signal and / or a second control signal, the first control signal is processed by a transducer driving module in the host to drive the ultrasonic transducer to adjust the output power, and the second control signal is processed by an electrode driving module in the host to drive the weak electric stimulation electrode to adjust the output power;

[0059] If not, no control signal is generated.

[0060] In summary, the present invention uses a self-developed safety monitoring module to collect the voltage and / or current signals at the input ends of the ultrasonic transducer and the weak electric stimulation electrode, and then uses the FPGA to determine whether the collected signal value is greater than a preset safety value. If so, a control signal is generated and the self-developed transducer driving module or electrode driving module drives the ultrasonic transducer or the weak electric stimulation electrode to adjust the output power to ensure the safe use of the combined therapeutic device.
