Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for influence by sound on the human body, as specified in the preamble of Claim 1 and a storage medium, e.g. tape cassette or compact disc to be used with the device, as specified in the preamble of Claim 11.
- a storage medium e.g. tape cassette or compact disc to be used with the device, as specified in the preamble of Claim 11.
- a device as in the preamble of Claim 1 is known from document DD-A-233 074.
- DE-A-2 356 481 specifies furthermore the provision of air passages in the upholstery of such a device at the location(s) of the loudspeaker(s).
- the use of external loudspeakers for treatment is furthermore known from DE-A-1 805 284.
- the present invention starts out with three basic principles within musical theraphy, viz. that low (deep) tones appear relaxing, whereas high tones appear stressing, that rhythmic music appears activating, whereas non-rhythmic music appears passivating, and that high sonic level appears aggressive, whereas low sonic level appears passivating.
- the present invention is based on that music, directly transferred to the human body through vibration receptors in the nervous system may have a greater effect, i.e. be able to provide greater muscular relaxation.
- acoustical perception and vibrational perception into a general experience, there is according to the present invention obtained therapeutical effect which has influence both on physical and psychical sufferings related to patients. This combination is for sake of simplicity in this description denoted as vibro-acoustics.
- the vibro-acoustical principle assumes best possible transfer of sound both to ear and body.
- the acoustic part may be taken care of by one or a plurality of good loudspeaker cabinets, or a headset.
- For the vibrational part there is according to the invention proposed a device using transfer of sound from loudspeaker through air to the human body in an efficient manner.
- An upholstery 9 has been located between the box 6 and the body 1, the portion 10 located opposite the loudspeaker 8 allowing good air passage.
- the top 11 of the box 6, which in the case shown forms a mattress bottom, could e.g. be made of plywood, said sound opening 7 being made in the top 11.
- a protective grille 12 could be placed across the opening 7.
- the foundation i.e. the box 6, is designed as a closed box.
- the upholstery 9 could be made from foamed plastics or foamed rubber having closed cells. Mattresses filled with air or light spheres of plastics (e.g. styropor®) could also be visualized. In the mattress or the upholstery 9 there is as mentioned arranged a region 10 corresponding to the sound opening 7.
- the said region 10 could be perforated, like the opening 7, or possibly be filled with foamed plastics having large open cells, and which permits air passage.
- the foamed plastics will provide a certain supporting ability, in particular as it will be supported by the said protective grille, simultaneously with providing good air passage. The person is placed such that the part of the body to be influenced is lying opposite the opening 7 and the region 10.
- the diaphragm of the loudspeaker 8 will thereby be connected to the body 1 through the air being present in said opening 7 and the region 10.
- the upholstery itself will act as a sealant to make the coupling between the loudspeaker 8 and the body 1 as efficient as possible.
- An audio amplifier 3 with at least two sound channels has at least one output connected to the loudspeaker 8 and at least a second output connected to a loudspeaker 2 for music.
- the signals to the amplifier 3 are delivered from e.g. a tape cassette player or compact disc player 4, and from a signal generator 5.
- the signal generator 5 is arranged to deliver sinusoidal tones, impulses or other synthetic signals.
- the player 4 is able to be provided with a storage medium, e.g. tape cassette or compact disc containing suitable program material.
- the storage medium could have two or a plurality of sound channels, where at least one of the sound channels contains low frequency signals, preferably in the frequency range 30/120 Hz being superimposed by music.
- the remaining sound channel(s) of the storage medium contain, however, only pure music.
- the said storage medium could be arranged to provide stereophonic or quadrophonic music.
- the signal generator 5 in effect could be constituted by one or a plurality of the storage medium channels.
- the amplifier 3 could possibly be provided with a low pass filter (not shown) for feeding said loudspeaker 8.
- the loudspeaker 8 is either supplied with a pure low frequency in the frequency range 30-120 Hz, or is modulated as a function of the music being output from the loudspeaker 2, or that the sound appearing on the loudspeaker 8 contains low frequency signals within the said frequency range superimposed on the music which also appears on the loudspeaker 2.
- the signal generator to the amplifier 3 is primarily the player 4.
- the vibro-acoustic frequency range where the sound spreading in the human body appears to have the greatest effect measured objectively and experienced subjectively lies between 30 and 120 Hz, preferably in the range 40-90 Hz.
- Particular good results are obtained within the octave 40-80 Hz. Outside the frequency range 30-120 Hz one will subjectively have no substantial feeling of vibrational influence.
- the therapeutical effect is obtained by placing the person in the most suitable manner and as close to the vibration loudspeaker, in the example shown the loudspeaker 8, as possible, and in a pleasent distance from the loudspeaker 2 delivering music.
- the therapeutical apparatus consist of the following previously briefly discussed parts, viz.
- the vibration part 6, 7, 8, 10 forming the transfer device intended to transfer sound within the vibro-acoustic frequency range
- the acoustic part in the form of one or a plurality of wide band loudspeaker cabinets 2 of HiFi-quality or a set of head-phones for transfer of music being adapted to the frequency which are used in the vibration part
- a multi channel amplifier 3 which through at least one channel transmits sinusoidal oscillations (vibration) and filtered music to the vibration part 8.
- Non-filtered music is sent through the other channel(s) to the loudspeaker(s) 2 delivering music, the strength of the sound being variable in step-free fashion on the respective channels, a multi-channel tape player, preferably a conventional two-channel tape player 4, where on one track of the tape cassette there is recorded pure music intended for the music loudspeaker 2. On the other track there is recorded a specific mixture of music and low frequency sound, e.g. sinusoidal signals.
- the sinusoidal signals are beating by means of a dual recording technique which is specially developed to be used with the therapeutic system, so-called superimposed sinusoidal waves, and the signal generator 5 is arranged to be adjusted individually with regard to therapeutical effective low frequencies which are to be supplied to the loudspeaker 8, provided that these are not already supplied from the player 4.
- the signal generator 5 When prerecorded software is used and delivered from the player 4, the signal generator 5 is thus not required, but the signal generator 5 is required if one wishes to compose suitable software and for possible further developement thereof.
- the signal generator may also be desirable for the object of research and for typical medical treatment.
- FIG. 3 it is shown how the box of fig. 1 could be replaced by a differently designed loudspeaker box 14 with loudspeaker 8' which may be turned down about e.g. a hinge 16 from a vertical position (shown in dot-dashed line) to a horizontal position (shown in solid line).
- loudspeaker box 14 In order to ensure that the loudspeaker box 14 lies in the horizontal position, it may be secured by wire, strap or the like 15 which at one end is attached to a wall 17 similar to the hinge 16 and at its other end is attached to an outer portion of the loudspeaker box 14.
- the person lies down on a bench 13 of conventional design per se, possible shaped like the bench 6,9 in fig. 1.
- the external loudspeaker 2' could be arranged e.g. in the bench 13 itself or in some other suitable manner, e.g. such that the person 1 obtains a good stereophonic sound image therefrom.
- the loudspeaker box 14 with the loudspeaker 8' is turned down to the horizontal position as shown in fig. 3.
- the loudspeaker 8 ⁇ corresponds in function to the loudspeaker 8 in fig. 1. In fig.
- FIG. 5 is shown a variant where the person 1 sits in a reclinable furniture 18 being design as a closed box, but with a sound opening for a loudspeaker 8'', which in function is the same as the loudspeaker 8 in fig. 1 or the loudspeaker 8' in fig. 3. Similar to the embodiment in fig. 1, there is in front of the loudspeaker 8 provided a sound opening 7''. Corresponding sound opening 7' is also found in fig. 3.
- the external loudspeakers have been indicated by the reference numeral 2'', shown here in the form of a headset.
- the external loudspeakers may have any suitable design and/or positioning without that being considered as limitative to the scope of the invention.
- a reclinable furniture 19 is here used being constructed in conventional manner, e.g. from a framework with surfaces for reclinement of upholstered fabric.
- loudspeaker cabinets there may be used one or a plurality of loudspeaker cabinets in order to influence the body of the person 1.
- the loudspeaker cabinets are of closed type to prevent noise externally and to prevent acoustic short-circuit.
- the loudspeaker cabinets are in a known manner provided with loudspeaker 22, 23 and can be attached to the framework of the reclinable furniture by means of brackets, straps or the like.
- the person 1 may be use headphones 2'' as external loudspeakers.
- fig. 4 there is in a block diagram form shown the functional structure of the devices in figs. 3 and 5, however, corresponding to what has been shown in fig. 1.
- Rett's syndrom The "plucking" movements reduced in frequency. The patient could even fall into sleep and it was observed a noticable relaxative effect. (Rett's syndrom named after Dr.med Adreas Rett of Austria).
- Autism Contact rejecting patients were so conserned about the effect of vibration the they could allow the personnel to give more skin contact/skin simulation that without this influence.
- Spastic conditions Effect as indicated above, the clear spasmolytical effect in the lower frequency regions.
- Reumatism Long-term treatment (10 to 20 treatments) with frequency 68 and 86 Hz has provided a lasting improvement for patients with reumatic pains and/or damage due to wear. The treatment was provided daily or every other day with duration of 30 minutes. Cramp conditions: Upon cramp in a muscle it was observed a dissolvment of the cramp condition at a frequency 40/60 Hz after approximately 2 minutes. General stress-discomfort. Tuned frequency and music in an environment shielded from the outside world during a period of 30 minutes provided stress-dissolving effect and appeared to supply the person with new vitality.
- a beating sinusoidal tone is made by recording on top of a primary frequency a secondary frequency having a deviation of 0.2 to 2 Hz.
- the beat velocity should be preset and should be tuned to the quality of the music which is required to be used in addition to the low frequencies.
- the beat program is then recorded on one of the two tracks on the storage medium, e.g. a tape cassette, sound-on-sound with the selected, preferably filtered, music. Pure music is recorded on the other track.
- the storage medium e.g. a tape cassette
