Description

Einrichtung zur Behandlung von Körpern mit Ultraschallwellen Einrichtungen zur Erzeugung von Ultraschallwellen, die im wesentlichen aus einem elektrisch angeregten Ultraschallwellenerzeuger (z. B. Quarzkristall) bestehen, der sich in einem den Schall leitenden Medium befindet, sind bekannt.Device for treating bodies with ultrasonic waves Devices for the generation of ultrasonic waves, which essentially consist of an electrically excited Ultrasonic wave generator (z. B. quartz crystal) exist, which is located in one of the Sound-conducting medium is known.

Die Erfindung, die in der Abbildung in einem Ausführungsbeispiel im Längsschnitt schematisch dargestellt ist, betrifft eine solche Einrichtung, die zur Behandlung von Körpern, insbesondere zur Patiientenbehandlun.g, mit Ultraschallwellen geeignet ist.The invention shown in the figure in an exemplary embodiment in Longitudinal section is shown schematically, relates to such a device, which for the treatment of bodies, especially for patient treatment, with ultrasound waves suitable is.

Sie besteht in einem Behältern, der dem elektrisch anzuregenden Ultraschailwellenerzeuger b (beispielsweise einen Quarzkristall mit den elektrisch leitenden Belegungen c, die über die Leitungen d an einen Hoc hfrequenzerzeug@er angeschlossen sind) enthält und außerdem das den Schall vom Erzeuger b zum Körper c leitende flüssige, breiige, formbare oder auch feste Medium f aufnimmt. Um, wie es für eine einwandfreie Weiterleitung der Ultraschallwellen vom Erzeuger b zu dem zu behandelnden Körper e erforderlich ist, jegliche die Ultraschallwellen streuende und daher unerwünschte Unterbrechung des die Ultraschallwellen leitenden Mediums (etwa durch Luft) auszuschließen, ist bei der neuen Einrichtung der Behälter a an der dem Körper zugewendeten Seite offen und mimdestens an seinem bei der Behandlung auf den Körper aufsitzenden Rand elastisch deformierbar. So kann der Behälter a als elastisch deformierbaren Rand einen hohlen, nach Art eines Saugnapfes wirkenden Gummiring g aufweisen, dessen Hohlraum lt zwecks Evakuierung mit einem Absaugstutzen i versehen sein kann.It consists of a container that contains the ultrasonic wave generator to be electrically excited b (for example a quartz crystal with electrically conductive coatings c, which are connected to a high frequency generator via lines d) and also the liquid, pulpy, conductive sound from generator b to body c mouldable or solid medium f takes up. To how it is for a flawless forwarding of the ultrasonic waves from the generator b to the body to be treated e is required is, any interruption which scatters the ultrasonic waves and is therefore undesirable of the medium that conducts the ultrasonic waves (e.g. through air) is to be excluded in the new device, the container a is open on the side facing the body and at least elastic at its edge that rests on the body during the treatment deformable. The container a can have a hollow, elastically deformable edge, have acting in the manner of a suction cup rubber ring g, whose cavity lt for the purpose Evacuation can be provided with a suction nozzle i.

Um auch bei besonders unebener Oberfläche der zu behandelnden Körper ein (flüssigkeits-) dichtes Anschließen des Behälterrandes g zu erzielen, können die Wandungen des Behälters a selbst teilweise aus einem elastisch deformierbaren Stoff, z. B. aus Gummi, bestehen und, wie es in dem abgebildeten Ausführungsbeispiel dargestellt ist, bei h etwa harmonikaaxtig ausgebildet sein. Bei einer derartigen Ausbildung eines Teiles der Wandungen des Behälters a läßt sich der Abstand zwischen dem Erzeuger b und der zu behandelnden Stellein des Körperse einstellen, was für die Erzielung einer Konzentration der Ultraschallenergie an der Stelle ni von Bedeutung ist. Bei Verwendung ho-hlspiegelartig gekrümmter Erzeuger b kann man nämlich den Sammelpunkt der Ultraschallwellen genau mit der Stelle m zusammenfallen lassen; bei der Benutzung ebener Erreger b läßt sich erreichen, daß man durch entsprechende Änderung des Abstandes b-m eine passende Lage der Schwingungsbäuche erzielen kann.In order to be able to use the body to be treated even if the surface of the body to be treated is particularly uneven to achieve a (liquid-) tight connection of the container edge g, can the walls of the container a itself partially made of an elastically deformable Fabric, e.g. B. made of rubber and, as in the illustrated embodiment is shown, be formed approximately harmonica ax at h. With such a Forming part of the walls of the container a can be the distance between the producer b and the part of the body to be treated set what for Achieving a concentration of the ultrasonic energy at the point ni is important is. When using generators b curved like a hollow mirror, one can namely use the Let the collection point of the ultrasonic waves coincide exactly with the point m; when using plane pathogens b it can be achieved that one can use appropriate Changing the distance b-m can achieve a suitable position of the antinodes.

Um das Medium f in den Behältera einführen oder (bei einer Verkleinerung des Abst.andes b-in) aus dem Behälter a entfernen zu können, ist zweckmäßig. in dem elastisch deformierbaren Teil des Behälters ein Stutzen n angebracht.To insert the medium f into the container a or (in the case of a reduction in size of the distance b-in) to be able to remove from the container a, is useful. in the elastic deformable part of the container a nozzle n attached.

Damit die bei der Erzeugung von Ultr*ischallwellen aus dem Medium f abgegeberici7 Gase sich nicht an einer Stelle des Behät-. tersu ansammeln, an der sie stören würdci-tr weist der Behälter a noch einen Ansatz o auf,' in dem sich diese Gase ansammeln können.So that when generating ultrasonic waves from the medium The gases emitted are not located at one point in the container. to accumulate tersu which would disturb them ci-tr, the container a still has an approach o, in which these gases can accumulate.

In manchen Fällen kann es eiivün:scht sein, in dem Behältera eine Trennwandung (Glasplatte o. dgl.) p anzubringen, so daß man beispielsweise oberhalb der Wandung p den Behältern mit Ö1, unterhalb der Wandungp"mit Wasser füllen kann. In diesem Fall kann auch der unterhalb der Wandung p liegende Behälterteil einen Gassammelansatz aufweisen. Mittels des Zapfens q kann die neue Einrichtung an einem Stativarm r in allen erforderlichen Stellungen befestigt werden.In some cases it may be too small to put a in the container Partition wall (glass plate or the like) p to be attached, so that, for example, above the wall p can fill the containers with oil, below the wall p "with water. In this case, the container part lying below the wall p can also have a Have gas collection approach. By means of the pin q, the new facility can be attached to a Stand arm r can be attached in all required positions.

Umeine sichere Befestigung der neuen Einrichtung auf dem zu behandelnden Körper zu gewährleisten, kann sie mit Bändern o. dgl. ausgestattet sein, mittels deren sie sich an dem zu behandelnden Körper bzw. tprperteil anschnallen läßt.To ensure that the new device is securely attached to the treated area To ensure body, it can be equipped with straps or the like. By means of which it can be buckled onto the body or body to be treated.
