Abstract
The present invention provides a portable handheld static-electricity generator and a method thereof for alleviating pain in at least one portion of patient's body, comprising: a movable brush, a polymer assembly comprising a rubbing-surface portion upon which the brush rubs and an automatically-operated mechanical unit. The polymer assembly having affinity to a defined charge such that when the movable brush rubs the rubbing-surface of the polymer assembly for a predefined time a static electricity is generated.
Claims20
A portable static-electricity generator for alleviating pain in at least one portion of patient's body, comprising
- a. an electret polymer assembly having a rubbing-surface;
- b. a brush movable over said rubbing-surface,
- c. an automatically-operated brush lifter displacing said brush relative to said electret polymer assembly;
- wherein said generator comprises a brush lifting element carrying said brush;
- said brush lifting element has a first position and second position;
- in said first position, said brush is in mechanical contact with said electret polymer assembly;
- in said second position, there is no mechanical contact therebetween.
A method of generating an electro-static field, wherein comprising steps of:
- a. providing a portable static-electricity generator comprising a movable brush, a polymer sheet assembly comprising a rubbing-surface;
- and an automatically-operated brush lifter displacing said brush relative to said electret polymer assembly;
- said generator comprises a brush lifting element carrying said brush;
- said brush lifting element has a first position and second position;
- in said first position, said brush is in mechanical contact with said electret polymer assembly;
- in said second position, there is no mechanical contact therebetween;
- b. displacing said brush in respect to said polymer sheet thereby, rubbing said polymer assembly by means of said brush;
- c. alternately positioning said brush in said first and second position such that an electric charge is generated and said electric charge leaks to a patient's body, respectively;
- d. generating a pulse electro-static field;
- and
- e. attaching said polymer sheet to said portion of patient's body for a predetermined time period t.
