CONTROL OF ELECTROTHERAPEUTIC APPARATUS Filed Sept. 21, 1965 [Na/EN we. 1.00M DEA/IS KENDALL 19 True/v5 Y5,
United States Patent 3,329,148 CONTROL OF ELECTROTHERAPEUTIC APPARATUS William Denis Kendall, Los Angeles, Calif., assignor to Dynapower Systems Corporation of California, Santa Monica, Calif., a corporation of California Filed Sept. 21, 1965, Ser. No. 488,977 3 Claims. (Cl. 128-422) This invention relates generally to electrotherapeutic apparatus, and more particularly concerns improvements in circuitry for transmitting high power pulsed radiation and the control thereof.
Major objects of the invention include provision for improved control of pulsed radiation transmission to enable the operator of the equipment to obtain higher power output and better matching of the equipment to the load represented by the patient, and simplification of the circuitry and controls. In this regard, it has been thought necessary in the past to provide a variable capacitor in a secondary coil tank circuit at the treatment head, with a manual control at the head; however, such an arrangement has disadvantages which are overcome by the present invention.
The above objects may be realized in accordance with the invention through the provision in electrotherapeutic apparatus of a power radiating head including first means operable to efiect transmission of pulsed high frequency radiation for treatment of a patient, said means including inductively coupled primary and secondary coils and a condenser electrically connected with the secondary coil to form a tank circuit, input means to supply pulsed high frequency energy, a network coupled to the output of the input means, a coaxial cable having a center conductor coupling the output of the network to the primary coil, and the network having a capacitor that is controllable to adjustably match the output impedance characteristic of the input means to the input impedance characteristic of the coaxial cable when a patient is undergoing treatment, thereby to optimize the electromagnetic energy output of the head. Typically, the network comprises a pi-network or low pass filter, a console contains the input means and network and the console has a control panel, and a manual control at the control panel has operative connection to the controllable capacitor. Also, the head typically may include a housing carrying an indicator inductively coupled to at least one of the coils to indicate visually to an observer the strength of the field associated with the inductive coupling, and the condenser in the housing has fixed capacitance.
These and other objects and advantages of the invention, as well as the details of illustrative embodiments, will be more fully understood from the following detailed description of the drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a schematic showing of the inventive combination;
FIG. 2 shows the wave form head;
FIG. 3 is an external elevation showing the console, control panel and the arm supported head;
FIG. 4 is a section taken through the control panel and console; and
FIG. 5 is a section taken through the power radiating head.
In the drawings, a power radiating head is indicated generally at 10, and it includes first means operable to effect transmission of pulsed high frequency radiation for treatment of a patients anatomy 11 placed directly in front of the head. Such a means includes inductively coupled primary and secondary coils 12 and 13, the secondary coil typically having three or four turns and transmitted to the power 3,329,143 Patented July 4, 1967 the primary coil a single turn, and a condenser 14 electrically connected with the secondary coil to form a tank circuit. The coils and condenser are shown as located within a drum-shaped metallic head shell 15 having an insulative cover plate 16, and the condenser has an insulative mount at 17.
Indicated at 18 in FIG. 1 is an input means to supply pulsed high frequency energy. As an illustration of this, reference is made to FIG. 2 showing the sequence of like pulses 21, each of which is made up of a high frequency signal burst having a selected amplitude 22, and having intervals 23 therebetween, these having predetermined relationship. Typically, the signal frequency will be 27.12 megacycles, or some other fixed value, and the interval 23 will be variable, as for example in stepwise relation. Also the amplitude equal to one-half the dimension 22 will be variable in stepwise relation. The time interval 23 may typically be varied so as to provide between about and 5,200 pulses per second in order to increase or decrease the intensity of treatment given to the patient. Apparatus described in US. Patent 3,127,- 895 is usable to provide waveform seen in FIG. 2.
A network is coupled to the output of the input means, one such network being indicated generally at 25 in FIG. 1 and comprising an unsymmetrical pi-net- Work or low pass filter having variable capacitors 26 and 27 and an inductance 28 connected as shown. There is also a coaxial cable 29 having a grounded sheath 30 and a center conductor 31, the latter being connected to one terminal of the primary coil 12. The opposite terminal of the coil 12 is grounded as by connected to the sheath 30 or metallic shell 15. In this regard, no controls are needed at the head for adjusting any electrical impedance elements contained within the shell 15.
An indicator glow lamp 50 is mounted on the head, and has a coil 51 inductively coupled to at least one of the coils 12 and 13 so as to indicate visually to an observer the increase or decrease in strength of the field associated with the inductive coupling of coils 12 and 13, which reflects the increase or decrease in energy 3 transfer to the head as controlled by adjusting knob 40 on the control panel.
