Description

  

  
 



  Elektrode, insbesondere zur Verwendung in Betten
Die günstigste Zeit, den Körper in den Wirkungsbereich eines elektrostatischen Feldes zu bringen, ist die Zeit der Bettruhe.



   Bekanntlich hat das elektrostatische Feld der Atmosphäre oder ein entsprechend dosiertes künstlich geschaffenes Feld einen Gleichstromfluss durch den Körper zur Folge. Hierauf beruht die anregende Wirkung des Aufenthaltes in freier Luft bzw. in guten elektrostatischen Feldern.



   Da es sich um einen Gleichstromfluss handelt, ist die Abwanderung von Ionen aus dem Körper ungefähr proportional der Höhe der wirksamen elektrischen Feldstärke.



   Einer Abwanderung von Ionen folgt aber stets eine Dissoziation von Molekülen, die vom Körper durch Nachpufferung ersetzt werden (vgl. Prof. Kowarschik, Physikalische Therapie, Springer-Verlag, 1928 bzw. Neuauflage 1957, Seite 115 usw.).



   Der bisherige technische Stand medizinischer Elektroden kennt entweder galvanische Elektroden für direkte Auflage am Körper oder Kurzwellen Diathermie-Elektroden, die ein Wechselfeld auf den Körper übertragen. Die letztgenannten Abstandselektroden haben keinerlei kreislaufanregende Wirkung, da in diesem Fall keine Ionenabwanderung stattfindet.



   Die erfindungsgemässe Elektrode besteht aus einer elektrisch leitenden Plastikplatte, die in einer spannungssicheren Plastiktasche eingebettet ist.



   Die erfindungsgemässe Elektrode ist vorteilhaft leicht und flexibel ausgebildet, um sie in Betten, auf Stühlen und andern Möbeln verwenden zu können.



  Die elektrisch leitende Plastikplatte kann zum Beispiel aus Butadien, Butylen durch Polymerisation mit einem Zusatz von etwa 50 bis 70   O/o    Graphit geschaffen werden. Diese beispielsweise flexible und elektrisch leitende Plastikplatte hat eine Leitfähigkeit von 10-3 bis   10    S.



   Die elektrisch leitende Plastikplatte E ist gemäss Fig. 1, um Berührungsgefahren auszuschliessen, mit einer spannungssicheren Plastiktasche T umgeben.



  Diese Plastiktasche besteht zweckmässig aus flexiblem Kunststoff und hat vorteilhaft eine Leitfähigkeit von mindestens 10-15   5.   



   Zweckmässig sind Buchsen B vorgesehen, an welche die Leitungen vom Generator bzw. zu andern Elektroden anzuschliessen sind.



   Zweckmässig weist die elektrisch isolierende Plastiktasche gemäss Fig. 2 flexible Bügel H auf, deren Länge durch Schlösser S einstellbar, den entsprechenden Möbelteilen anpassbar ist.



   Um die in der Natur festgestellten Spannungswerte zu erhalten, werden die Elektroden vorteilhaft auf eine oberschwingungsfreie Gleichspannung von bis zu 1500 Volt aufgeladen. Diese Feldspannung entspricht den in Höhenlagen gemessenen Spannungsunterschieden von 500 bis 1500 Volt je Meter.  



   PATENTANSPRUCH
Elektrode, insbesondere zur Verwendung in Betten, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass eine elektrisch leitende Plastikplatte in einer spannungssicheren Plastiktasche eingebettet ist.



   UNTERANSPRUCH
Elektrode nach Patentanspruch, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Plastiktasche mit verstellbaren Haltebügeln ausgerüstet ist.

  Electrode, especially for use in beds
The best time to bring the body into the effective range of an electrostatic field is the time of bed rest.



   It is known that the electrostatic field of the atmosphere or a correspondingly dosed artificially created field results in a direct current flow through the body. The stimulating effect of being in the open air or in good electrostatic fields is based on this.



   Since it is a direct current flow, the migration of ions out of the body is roughly proportional to the level of the effective electric field strength.



   A migration of ions is always followed by a dissociation of molecules, which are replaced by the body through subsequent buffering (cf. Prof. Kowarschik, Physical Therapy, Springer-Verlag, 1928 or new edition 1957, page 115 etc.).



   The current technical status of medical electrodes knows either galvanic electrodes for direct contact with the body or short-wave diathermy electrodes that transmit an alternating field to the body. The last-mentioned spacer electrodes have no effect whatsoever to stimulate the circulation, since in this case there is no migration of ions.



   The electrode according to the invention consists of an electrically conductive plastic plate which is embedded in a voltage-proof plastic bag.



   The electrode according to the invention is advantageously designed to be light and flexible so that it can be used in beds, on chairs and other furniture.



  The electrically conductive plastic plate can, for example, be made from butadiene, butylene by polymerization with an addition of about 50 to 70% graphite. This flexible and electrically conductive plastic plate, for example, has a conductivity of 10-3 to 10 S.



   According to FIG. 1, the electrically conductive plastic plate E is surrounded by a voltage-proof plastic bag T in order to rule out any risk of contact.



  This plastic bag is expediently made of flexible plastic and advantageously has a conductivity of at least 10-15 5.



   Sockets B are expediently provided, to which the lines from the generator or to other electrodes are to be connected.



   The electrically insulating plastic bag according to FIG. 2 expediently has flexible brackets H, the length of which can be adjusted by means of locks S and adapted to the corresponding furniture parts.



   In order to obtain the voltage values determined in nature, the electrodes are advantageously charged to a harmonic-free direct voltage of up to 1500 volts. This field voltage corresponds to the voltage differences of 500 to 1500 volts per meter measured at altitude.



   PATENT CLAIM
Electrode, in particular for use in beds, characterized in that an electrically conductive plastic plate is embedded in a voltage-proof plastic bag.



   UNDER CLAIM
Electrode according to claim, characterized in that the plastic bag is equipped with adjustable retaining brackets.
