[0031] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a time domain interferometric electrical stimulation wearable device provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the time domain interference electrical stimulation wearable device 10 includes: a wearable device 11 and a control device 12. The wearable device 11 includes an electrically connected wearable body 13 and a stimulation electrode 14. The wearable body 13 outputs a modulation signal through the stimulation electrode 14 based on a control signal. The modulation signal is used to interfere with the electric field of the target part.
[0032] The control device 12 is wirelessly connected to the wearable device 11 for receiving operation instructions from the user and sending control signals to the wearable device 11 according to the operation instructions.
[0033] In this embodiment, the wearable body 13 can be worn on the part of the human body where it is needed, such as the brain, limbs, or body parts that require the use of time domain interference technology to assist the patient's rehabilitation. For the sake of ease of explanation, this embodiment takes the wearable body 13 worn on the brain as an example, for example, the wearable body 13 includes a wearable helmet.
[0034] The control device 12 is wirelessly connected to the wearable device 11, and the user can send an operation instruction to the controllable wearable device through the control device 12. For example, the control device 12 provides a button or a touch screen interface, and the user can input an operation instruction through the case or the touch screen interface. For example, the operation instruction is a start work instruction, a pause instruction, a time domain interference parameter, etc. After receiving the user's operation instruction, the control device 12 sends a control signal to the wearable device 11 according to the operation instruction to execute the operation instruction. The control signal can be a high or low level signal or other signal that can be received and recognized by the main control module of the wearable body 13.
[0035] The wearable body 13 and the stimulation electrode 14 are electrically connected. After receiving the control signal, the wearable body 13 outputs a modulation signal through the stimulation electrode 14 based on the control signal. The modulation signal is used to interfere with the electric field of the target part, thereby achieving the effect of regulating the electric field of the target part and assisting the patient's recovery.
[0036] In one example, the scope of application of the time-domain interferometric electrical stimulation wearable device 11 provided in this embodiment includes, but is not limited to, movement disorder symptoms caused by Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, sequelae of stroke or genetic factors. After wearing the wearable device 11, the patient can control the wearable device 11 through the control device 12, and use the time-domain interferometric technology to non-invasively stimulate specific areas of the brain, which can target and regulate the neural activity in the deep brain area, thereby improving nerve conduction and restoring movement coordination in a non-invasive manner, thereby improving the symptoms of movement disorders.
[0037] This embodiment integrates the electrical stimulation function into a wearable device 11, which is convenient for users to use in different occasions, and users can wear and carry it conveniently, thereby improving the convenience of treatment. By controlling the device 12 to receive user instructions in real time, the electrical stimulation parameters can be adjusted instantly as needed to achieve a real-time control effect.
[0038] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of a wearable device provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown, referring to Figure 2 In an embodiment of the present application, the wearable body 13 includes a support structure 131 and a support structure 132, a wireless communication module 133 and a time-domain interference electrical stimulation module 134 arranged in the support structure 131, and the wireless communication module 133 and the time-domain interference electrical stimulation module 134 are electrically connected to the support structure 132; the wireless communication module 133 is used to transmit signals with the control device 12; the support structure 132 is used to control the time-domain interference electrical stimulation module 134 to generate a modulation signal according to the control signal received by the wireless communication module 133, and send the operation data of the wearable body 13 to the control device 12, and the operation data includes the operation status of the support structure 132 and the parameter information of the time-domain interference electrical stimulation module 134.
[0039] The wireless communication module 133 can be a wireless transmission module such as WiFi, BLE, etc. The wearable body 13 transmits signals with the control device 12 through the wireless communication module 133, which enables remote communication between the wearable body 13 and the control device 12, increases the convenience of use, and improves the scope of application scenarios.
[0040] The support structure 132 is, for example, a module with control calculation and other functions such as an MCU or a programmable logic control chip. For example, the support structure 132 includes a microprocessor chip such as ARM cortex, stm32, or MSP430. The support structure 132 can control the time domain interference electrical stimulation module 134 to generate a modulation signal according to the control signal received by the wireless communication module 133. The modulation signal is used to interfere with the electric field of the target part. Specifically, the currents contained in the modulation signal can be superimposed on each other, and at certain moments they can cancel each other out, and eventually a low frequency ( Δf=f1-f2) envelope waveform, which can be used to stimulate neurons deep in the brain, and can target and regulate neural activity in deep brain areas, thereby improving nerve conduction and restoring motor coordination in a non-invasive manner, thereby improving the symptoms of movement disorders.
[0041] The support structure 132 can also send the operating data of the wearable body 13 to the control device 12, and the operating data includes the operating state of the support structure 132 and the parameter information of the time domain interference electrical stimulation module 134. The operating state of the support structure 132 is, for example, the generation, processing and output state of the operating signal, such as whether there is a fault, such as hardware interface status, version update and other status information.
[0042] The parameter information of the time domain interference electrical stimulation module 134 may include current intensity, frequency parameters, electric field intensity distribution, stimulation duration, stimulation effect, and the like.
[0043] This embodiment increases the convenience of use and can send operating data back to the control device 12 to provide the user with real-time feedback on the device status and treatment effect.
[0044] In the embodiment of the present application, the time domain interference electrical stimulation module 134 is also used to output multi-channel AC signals, and the output AC signals include AC signals with different waveforms, different frequencies and different current intensities.
[0045] Specifically, the time domain interference electrical stimulation module 134 may include one or more DDS (Direct Digital Synthesizer) chips, such as AD9833, AD4522 or AD9959, etc., which can simultaneously output multi-channel AC signals (such as 2 / 4 / 6 / 8 / 12 / 16 / 18 / 24 / 32 / 36 / 48 / 64 channels). The output AC signals may be electrical signals of various waveforms (such as sine waves, bidirectional square waves, bidirectional triangle waves, etc.), different frequencies (such as 0.1Hz to 100kHz) and different current intensities (such as peak-to-peak 0.001mA to peak-to-peak 60mA).
[0046] This embodiment can realize multi-channel output, and the multi-channel AC signal output provides more treatment options and can be customized for different treatment needs. It is also flexible, and signals with different waveforms, frequencies and current intensities can adapt to different treatment scenarios and patient needs.
[0047] In an embodiment of the present application, the time domain interference electrical stimulation module 134 is also used to output the two AC signals under the control of the support structure 132, the frequencies of the two AC signals are greater than or equal to the first preset frequency, and the frequency difference between the two AC signals is less than or equal to the second preset frequency.
[0048] The frequencies of the two AC signals are both greater than or equal to the first preset frequency, which can ensure that the adjustment signal is a high-frequency signal. The frequency difference between the two AC signals is less than or equal to the second preset frequency, which can make the two signals cancel each other out and generate a low-frequency envelope waveform that fluctuates in size in the time domain inside the brain. This low-frequency envelope waveform can be used to stimulate neurons deep in the brain.
[0049] In one example, the frequency f1 of the first AC signal is 1000 Hz, the frequency f2 of the second AC signal is 1005 Hz, the frequency difference Δf between the two signals is 5 Hz, the frequencies of the two AC signals are both greater than or equal to 1000 Hz, and the frequency difference between the two signals is less than or equal to 5 Hz, which meets the requirements of time domain interference electrical stimulation. In this way, a low-frequency (5 Hz) envelope waveform can be generated inside the brain to stimulate specific brain areas, which can not only assist the patient's rehabilitation, but also will not cause other adverse effects on the patient.
[0050] In an embodiment of the present application, the wearable body 13 also includes a power management module 135 and an indicator light module 136 electrically connected to the support structure 132; the power management module 135 is used to exchange electrical energy with an external power source, and to provide working voltage to the support structure 132, the wireless communication module 133 and the time domain interference electrical stimulation module 134; the indicator light module 136 is used to indicate the operating status of the support structure 132, and to display preset information under the control of the support structure 132.
[0051] The power management module 135 is used to implement the charge and discharge management function of the wearable device 11, and provide a stable DC power supply (such as 3.3V, 5V or 12V, etc.) to the support structure 132, the wireless communication module 133 and the time domain interference electrical stimulation module 134.
[0052] In one example, the indicator light module 136 may include a number of LED lamp beads of different colors, forming a light strip of a specific shape (such as a strip, rectangle or circle, etc.), which can be used to visualize different device states of the wearable device, and display corresponding visualized preset information according to instructions from the support structure 132 and preset programs, for example: the green LED is always on to indicate that the device is charged and turned on; the green LED is off to indicate the end of treatment; the red LED flashes to indicate low battery and needs to be charged; the blue LED is always on to indicate that it is charging; the green LED flashes to indicate that charging is complete.
[0053] The power management module 135 ensures a stable power supply to the device, thereby improving the reliability and durability of the device. The indicator light module 136 provides the user with intuitive device status and operation feedback, thereby enhancing the user experience.
[0054] In the embodiment of the present application, the stimulation electrode 14 is arranged on the electrode support, and the electrode support is connected to the wearable body 13 through the electrode connector, and the electrode connector is a bendable structure with adjustable direction and angle.
[0055] In this embodiment, the stimulation electrode 14 can be a small circular or rectangular shape to adapt to different treatment areas and human anatomical structures. The electrode can be made of biocompatible metals or alloys, such as medical stainless steel, titanium alloy or gold-plated materials, to ensure safety and effectiveness. The surface of the stimulation electrode 14 is designed with a specific contact area for transmitting electrical stimulation signals to the target site.
[0056] The electrode support can be made of flexible materials, such as silicone, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), ABS, PC, PVC, etc., or medical grade plastics to ensure comfort and flexibility. The electrode support fixes or attaches the stimulation electrode 14 to ensure good contact between the electrode and the skin.
[0057] The electrode connector is a bendable structure with adjustable direction and angle, which can be a serpentine tube or a chain structure with multiple joints. Its material can be made of flexible and durable materials, such as medical-grade stainless steel wire, nickel-titanium alloy (Nit ino l) or flexible plastic. The connector allows the user to adjust the direction and angle of the electrode to adapt to different head shapes and treatment needs. One end of the electrode connector is connected to the electrode support, and the other end is connected to the wearable body 13, and flexible fixation and adjustment are achieved through the bendable design.
[0058] This design allows the stimulation electrode 14 to maintain contact with the skin while being fine-tuned according to the user's head shape and comfort, ensuring therapeutic effect and user experience. The adjustability of the electrode connector provides the wearable device 11 with the necessary flexibility and adaptability.
[0059] In the embodiment of the present application, the contact surface between the stimulation electrode 14 and the target part is further provided with an electrode filling piece, and the electrode filling piece is used to increase the friction between the stimulation electrode 14 and the target part.
[0060] The electrode fillings may include conductive paste, saline, silicone electrodes, saline sponge electrodes, hydrogel electrodes, etc. On the one hand, these ingredients can reduce contact impedance and enhance signal transmission. On the other hand, they can achieve a good fit between the stimulation electrode 14 and the target part of the brain, enhance the friction between the stimulation electrode 14 and the target part, and prevent the stimulation electrode 14 from loosening and affecting the effect.
[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, the wearable device 11 is a wearable device 11 for the human head. When worn, the inner surface of the wearable body 13 fits the human head; wherein the main body of the support structure 131 is an alloy material structure, and the periphery of the main body of the support structure 131 is a polymer material structure.
[0062] The wearable device 11 is a wearable device 11 for the human head. In one example, the wearable device 11 is a device that can be worn on the human head, such as a mesh hollow electrode cap structure, a claw-shaped head cover structure, a ring-shaped headband structure, or an ear-hanging headband structure.
[0063] The main body of the support structure 131 is an alloy material structure (such as aluminum alloy, stainless steel, etc.), which can provide sufficient structural strength and stability to ensure the stability and durability of the device during wearing and use. The alloy material usually has good heat dissipation performance, which helps to dissipate heat from the internal components of the device and extend the service life of the device. It also has a good electromagnetic shielding effect, which can reduce external electromagnetic interference and improve the signal stability and safety of the device.
[0064] The periphery of the main body of the support structure 131 is a polymer material structure (such as ABS, PC, etc.), which can provide better flexibility and skin-friendliness when in contact with the human head. The polymer material can reduce the weight of the entire device, improve wearing comfort, and reduce the burden on the user when wearing it. It also has high durability and impact resistance, and can protect the internal electronic components from external impact and wear.

[0068] The display screen 21 can also display the status of the control device 12 itself, such as the power level of the control device 12 itself.
[0069] In one example, a wireless transmission module is integrated on the control circuit 23 for performing data transmission with the wearable device 11 .
[0070] The control device 12 provides an intuitive user interface to make operation easier, and the display screen provides visualization of device status and parameter information to help users better control the treatment process.
