Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If electrification is used to eliminate viruses in blood, then viral elimination effectiveness is improved, but patient safety deteriorates and pain increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the electrical stimulation system with a magnetic stimulation system. The magnetic stimulation device uses a stimulating coil to generate a magnetic field that induces current in the blood, substituting direct electrical contact with indirect magnetic field action. This eliminates the pain and safety risks associated with direct electrification while maintaining viral elimination effectiveness.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a magnetic field as an intermediary between the power source and the blood. Instead of applying electric current directly to the blood (which causes pain and damage), the system uses a stimulating coil to generate a magnetic field that penetrates the blood indirectly, inducing current through electromagnetic induction. This intermediary approach resolves the contradiction by maintaining therapeutic effect while eliminating harmful direct electrical contact.
2Reliability
If hemodialysis is used to filter blood, then blood purification is improved, but applicability to viremia patients deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a multi-functional treatment system that can address multiple conditions. The magnetic stimulation device not only purifies blood by removing metabolic wastes like hemodialysis but also eliminates viruses through induced current effects. This universal approach allows the same device to treat both renal failure patients (needing purification) and viremia patients (needing viral elimination), resolving the limitation of hemodialysis's narrow applicability.
3Reliability
If direct electric current is applied to blood, then viral elimination is improved, but blood composition stability deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent substitutes direct electrical current application with magnetic field-induced current. The stimulating coil generates a magnetic field that passes through the blood, inducing current through electromagnetic induction rather than direct contact. This substitution preserves blood composition stability while maintaining viral elimination effectiveness, as the induced current is transient and does not directly disrupt blood components.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent employs periodic magnetic stimulation through pulsed current delivery to the stimulating coil. The magnetic field is applied in transient pulses rather than continuously, creating induced current that is strong during the pulse but transient overall. This periodic action eliminates viruses effectively while allowing blood composition to remain stable between pulses, preventing cumulative damage to blood components.

Function Achieved in This Case
The device effectively inhibits viral proliferation, as demonstrated by experiment results, offering a safer and more acceptable treatment option for patients with viremia and related diseases.
Implementation Method 1
a pulse-generating unit, being electrically connected to the stimulating coil for outputting a pulse current to excite the stimulating coil to generate a variational magnetic field, whereby, due to electromagnetic induction, an induced electric field is formed in the chamber, so that an induced current is generated to give strong yet transient magnetic stimulation to the blood passing through the chamber
Implementation Method 2
a pulse-generating unit, being electrically connected to the stimulating coil for outputting a pulse current to excite the stimulating coil to generate a variational magnetic field, whereby, due to electromagnetic induction, an induced electric field is formed in the accommodating space, so that an induced current is generated in the user's subcutaneous vessels to give strong yet transient magnetic stimulation to the blood in the vessels

AI summary
A blood magnetic stimulation device includes a magnetic stimulation unit that has a stimulating coil for being connected to a blood delivering unit or directly worn by a user. The stimulating coil is further connected to a pulse-generating unit that outputs a pulse current to excite the stimulating coil, so as to use electromagnetic pulses to apply strong yet transient magnetic stimulation to blood passing through the magnetic stimulation unit or to blood in the user's subcutaneous vessels, thereby providing magnetic treatment for viremian and related diseases. As compared to the existing blood treating devices, the magnetic stimulation provided by the blood magnetic stimulation device incurs no sharp pain and uncomfortableness, and is safer and more acceptable to patients.
