Description

Cooling system for magnetic shock therapy equipment Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of magnetic shock therapy equipment, in particular to a cooling system of magnetic shock therapy equipment. Background Art

[0002] Magnetic shock therapy (MST) utilizes ultra-strong TMS to induce seizures and shock, achieving the therapeutic effect of electric shock. MST technology is characterized by high output intensity, high output frequency, long continuous output time, and high-power equipment. The magnetic stimulation coil must be able to more effectively stimulate nerves, have a strong heat dissipation system, and operate continuously.

[0003] To meet the high power requirements of MST devices, existing methods generally use multiple rTMS (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, rTMS) devices stacked together to construct MST as a treatment device. The stacking of multiple standard rTMS devices makes the MST device costly and inconvenient to operate. In addition, due to the high power output of the MST device, the device generates very concentrated heat, especially the magnetic stimulation coil. The heating of the magnetic stimulation coil will increase the resistance of the stimulation coil, indirectly leading to the attenuation of the magnetic field strength. On the other hand, the heating of the stimulation coil will accelerate its aging and reduce its service life.

[0004] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a new cooling system for magnetic shock therapy equipment to overcome the above-mentioned defects.

[0005] Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a magnetic shock cooling system so that the liquid flowing back into the water tank maintains a low temperature, so that the magnetic shock therapy equipment can be used continuously and normally without causing an increase in the resistance of the stimulation coil or accelerating the aging of the magnetic stimulation coil, thereby shortening its service life.

Thus, a feature identified as "first," "second," or "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. Furthermore, "plurality" and "several" refer to two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0027] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the present invention provides a cooling system for a magnetic shock therapy device, comprising: a computer 1, a control panel, a compressor 5, a heat exchanger 6, a radiator 13, a water tank 7, a cooling pump 8, and a magnetic stimulation coil 9; the computer 1 is in communication with the control panel.

[0028] The compressor 5 is connected between the heat exchanger 6 and the radiator 13, and the compressor 5 is electrically connected to the control panel, the water tank 7 is connected to the heat exchanger 6, the cooling pump 8 is connected to the water tank 7, one end of the magnetic stimulation coil 9 is connected to the cooling pump 8, and the other end of the magnetic stimulation coil 9 is connected to the heat exchanger 6.

[0029] Specifically, the control panel includes a processor 2, a human-computer interaction module 3 and a control signal generating module 4. The computer 1 is communicatively connected to the processor 2 of the control panel, the human-computer interaction module 3 and the control signal generating module 4 are both communicatively connected to the processor 2, and the compressor 5 is electrically connected to the control signal generating module 4 of the control panel.

[0030] In this way, the processor 2 receives the instructions from the computer 1 and / or the human-computer interaction module 3, and sends the received instructions to the control signal generation module 4, the compressor 5 and the cooling pump 8.

[0031] When the magnetic shock therapy device performs magnetic shock therapy, when the computer 1 outputs a "cooling" command signal, the compressor 5 (refrigeration compressor 5) and the cooling pump 8 are started, and the liquid in the water tank 7 flows into the magnetic stimulation coil 9 under the action of the cooling pump 8, and then flows from the magnetic stimulation coil 9 to the heat exchanger 6, and from the heat exchanger 6 to the compressor 5. The liquid compressed by the compressor 5 flows back to the water tank 7 through the radiator 13.

[0032] During this process, the high temperature generated by the operation of the magnetic stimulation coil 9 will complete heat exchange under the action of the compressor 5 and the heat exchanger 6, so that the liquid flowing back into the water tank 7 maintains a lower temperature, allowing the magnetic shock therapy equipment to be used continuously and normally, without causing an increase in the resistance of the stimulation coil, nor accelerating the aging of the magnetic stimulation coil 9, thereby shortening its service life.

[0033] In addition, the operation can be completed by simply sending instructions through the computer 1 and / or the human-computer interaction module 3, which is very convenient for users.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, the cooling system of the magnetic shock therapy device also includes an acquisition module, which includes a liquid level sensor 101, a hydraulic pressure sensor 102, a temperature sensor 103 and a flow sensor 104. The liquid level sensor 101 is installed in the water tank 7 and is communicated with the control signal generation module 4. The liquid level in the water tank 7 can be monitored by the liquid level sensor 101. The hydraulic pressure sensor 102 is connected between the cooling pump 8 and the magnetic stimulation coil 9 and is communicated with the control signal generation module 4 so that the hydraulic pressure between the magnetic stimulation coil 9 and the water tank 7 can be detected by the liquid level sensor 101. The temperature sensor 103 is installed in the magnetic stimulation coil 9 and is communicated with the control signal generation module 4. The temperature sensor 103 is used to detect the temperature of the liquid. The flow sensor 104 is connected between the temperature sensor and the magnetic stimulation coil 9 and is communicated with the control signal generation module 4 so that the flow rate of the liquid can be detected by the flow sensor 104.

[0035] In this way, the liquid level information, hydraulic pressure information, liquid temperature information and flow rate information can be obtained by detecting the liquid through the liquid level sensor 101, hydraulic pressure sensor 102, temperature sensor 103 and flow rate sensor 104 of the acquisition module.

[0036] When the magnetic shock therapy device performs magnetic shock therapy, when the computer 1 outputs a "cooling" command signal, the compressor 5 (refrigeration compressor 5) and the cooling pump 8 are started, and the liquid in the water tank 7 flows into the magnetic stimulation coil 9 under the action of the cooling pump 8, and then flows from the magnetic stimulation coil 9 to the heat exchanger 6, and from the heat exchanger 6 to the compressor 5. The liquid compressed by the compressor 5 flows back to the water tank 7 through the radiator 13.

[0037] Specifically, when the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 103 is less than 25°C, the cooling pump 8 and the cooling fan 11 move at low speed, and the compressor 5 does not work; when the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 103 is greater than 25°C, the cooling pump 8 and the cooling fan 11 move at low speed, and the compressor 5 starts working; when the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 103 is greater than 30°C, the cooling pump 8 and the cooling fan 11 move at high speed, and the compressor 5 works; when the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 103 is greater than 40°C, the magnetic shock therapy device stops running the magnetic stimulation therapy and issues an alarm.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the cooling system of the magnetic shock therapy device further includes a speed control device 10, which is electrically connected to the cooling pump 8, the liquid level sensor 101, and the control signal generation module 4. When the magnetic stimulation coil 9 stops operating, the computer 1 sends a command to the speed control device 10 to reduce the speed of the cooling pump 8 until the cooling pump 8 stops operating. This helps reduce noise and save energy.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, the cooling system of the magnetic shock therapy device further includes a cooling fan 11, which is mounted on the water tank 7 and electrically connected to the speed regulating device 10, and the speed of the cooling fan 11 can be adjusted by the speed regulating device 10.

[0040] When the magnetic stimulation coil 9 is not working, the cooling pump 8 does not run and the cooling fan 11 runs at a low speed; when the magnetic stimulation coil 9 is working normally, the cooling pump 8 runs normally to reduce the temperature of the magnetic stimulation coil 9 through the cooling medium, and the cooling fan 11 runs at a high speed; when the magnetic stimulation coil 9 stops working, the speed control device 10 issues an instruction to reduce the speed of the cooling pump 8 until the cooling pump 8 stops running, and the cooling fan 11 runs at a low speed.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, the cooling system of the magnetic shock therapy device further includes a reflux device 12, which is connected between the magnetic stimulation coil 9 and the cooling pump 8 and is in communication with the control signal generation module 4. The computer issues instructions to the control signal generation module 4, causing the reflux device 12 to drain all remaining cooling medium (liquid, oil, water) within the magnetic stimulation coil 9 back into the water tank 7. Specifically, the reflux device 12 is connected between the cooling pump 8 and the liquid level sensor 102. In this embodiment, the reflux device 12 is an air pump.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, the human-computer interaction module 3 includes a single-chip microcomputer 31 , a matrix keyboard 32 and a sound generator 33 . The single-chip microcomputer 31 is communicatively connected with the processor 2 , the matrix keyboard 32 and the sound generator 33 .

[0043] When the touch screen interface of the computer 1 is clicked or a key of the matrix keyboard 32 is operated to trigger the magnetic stimulation coil 9 to generate a magnetic field, the computer 1 sends a magnetic stimulation instruction to the control signal generation module 4 through the processor 2. The control signal generation module 4 receives the magnetic stimulation instruction, and the magnetic stimulation coil 9 starts to work.

[0044] At the same time, the computer 1 also sends a start instruction to the sounder 33 of the human-computer interaction module 3 through the processor 2. At this time, the operator can hear the "tick-tick" sound emitted by the sounder 33, and the user can judge that the magnetic stimulation coil 9 has started to work and generate a magnetic field. The touch screen of the computer 1 displays the magnetic field information.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the human-computer interaction module 3 further includes a programmable driver 34 and a breathing light 35 . The programmable driver 34 is electrically connected between the single-chip computer 31 and the breathing light 35 . The programmable driver 34 is used to adjust the lighting effect of the breathing light 35 .

[0046] When the sound generator 33 emits a "tick" sound, the lighting effect of the breathing light 35 changes along with the "tick" sound, so that the user can visually judge that the magnetic stimulation coil 9 has started to work and generate a magnetic field.

[0047] Working principle: When the magnetic shock therapy device performs magnetic shock therapy, when the computer 1 outputs a "cooling" command signal, the compressor 5 (refrigeration compressor 5) and the cooling pump 8 are started, and the liquid in the water tank 7 flows into the magnetic stimulation coil 9 under the action of the cooling pump 8, and then flows from the magnetic stimulation coil 9 to the radiator 13, and from the radiator 13 to the compressor 5. The liquid compressed by the compressor 5 flows back to the water tank 7 through the heat exchanger 6.

[0048] During this process, the liquid level sensor 101, hydraulic pressure sensor 102 and temperature sensor 103 of the acquisition device respectively detect the hydraulic pressure, liquid level and liquid temperature of the liquid, and the hydraulic pressure information, liquid level information and liquid temperature information are displayed on the touch screen of the computer 1. The high temperature generated by the operation of the magnetic stimulation coil 9 will complete the heat exchange under the action of the compressor 5 and the heat exchanger 6, so that the liquid flowing back to the water tank 7 maintains a low temperature, so that the magnetic shock therapy equipment can be used continuously and normally.

[0049] The present invention is not limited to what is described in the specification and embodiments, and additional advantages and modifications will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific details, representative devices, and illustrative examples shown and described herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the general concept defined by the claims and their equivalents.
