Solution Overview

Problem

Current healthcare methods such as scraping, cupping, acupuncture, and microwave acupuncture face challenges like skin damage, hygiene concerns, invasive risks, and the need for professional expertise to accurately target acupoints, while high-frequency microwave acupuncture instruments pose excessive radiation risks.

Innovation Solution

A healthcare device emitting low-frequency infrasound waves, specifically in the range of 0-20 Hz, is used to stimulate the umbilicus, which is easily identifiable and has a rich venous network, allowing for non-invasive, non-contact treatment that resonates with the body's inherent frequencies, promoting tissue repair and immune system activation without excessive energy risk.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If high-frequency microwave radiation (1000-2000 MHz) is used for acupuncture treatment, then the health care effect can be achieved, but excessive radiation energy causes damage and safety risks

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehealth care effectVSAvoidexcessive radiation damage
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the frequency parameter from high-frequency microwave (1000-2000 MHz) to low-frequency infrasound (0-20 Hz), specifically targeting the resonant frequencies of human tissues and organs. This parameter change maintains the health care effect through resonance while eliminating excessive radiation energy and associated damage risks.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the electromagnetic microwave radiation system with a mechanical vibration system (infrasound waves). This substitution achieves the desired health care effects through mechanical resonance at low frequencies rather than high-frequency electromagnetic radiation, thereby avoiding radiation damage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Ease of operation

If microwave acupuncture instrument is used, then non-invasive treatment is achieved, but accurate identification of acupoints requires professional knowledge which most people lack

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvenon-invasive treatmentVSAvoidacupoint identification accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies the device universally to the umbilicus acupoint, which is easily identifiable by all people regardless of professional knowledge. The umbilicus serves as a universal, easily locatable anatomical landmark that eliminates the need for professional TCM knowledge while maintaining non-invasive treatment benefits.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The device enables users to self-administer treatment by targeting the easily identifiable umbilicus acupoint without requiring professional guidance. Users can independently locate and treat their own umbilicus, making the health care service accessible to everyone without professional intervention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Reliability

If traditional methods like scraping or cupping are used, then health care effects are achieved, but skin damage and hygiene concerns arise

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehealth care effectVSAvoidskin damage and hygiene risk
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces mechanical contact methods (scraping, cupping) with non-contact infrasound wave radiation. This substitution eliminates direct skin contact, thereby preventing skin damage and hygiene issues while maintaining health care effects through resonance with tissue frequencies.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces infrasound waves as an intermediary medium to transmit energy to the body without direct contact. This intermediary approach allows health care effects to be achieved while avoiding the harmful direct mechanical contact and associated hygiene risks of traditional methods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

A health care device and health care method are illustrated. A health care device is used to emit a low-frequency wave of a predetermined frequency forward to an umbilicus of a user, wherein the low-frequency wave is emitted at a predetermined position, and the predetermined position is located in front of the umbilicus of the user with a predetermined distance. The health care device comprises the low-frequency wave emitter, a column and a cone. The predetermined frequency is within a range between 1.27 Hz and 1.81 Hz, and the predetermined distance D is within a range between 5 cm and 8 cm. The health care device and the health care method can increase the content of activated T cells in the blood, so as to achieve effects of convenient operation, accurate identification of the use position, non-invasive treatment, non-contact treatment, and no harm caused by excessive energy risk.
