This invention provides aluminum or aluminum alloy spheres/particles or a mixture of aluminum and aluminum alloy and/or aluminum zirconium powder to form an electrode together with an aluminum metal screen wire mesh or the like within a membrane pouch and in contact with an electrical power source. The heavy metal particles are combined with a salt water or gel solution. The membrane enclosure includes a wire mesh which is surrounded by a quantity of the aluminum micro-sized particles. Magnesium and/or copper particles may also be utilized. The porous membrane enclosure has an opening through which a wire is placed in contact with the electrical power source. The contact between the power source terminal and membrane enclosure either physically touches each other or the power source directly touches the internal wire mesh through a small opening in the membrane enclosure. The power source can be a DC supply. The system provides long term sweat control. The system may be wetted with tap water, distilled water and a saline gel solution mixed with the aluminum particles as the electrically conductive medium between the power source and the skin. A deodorant or fragrance is added to the long term sweat control system and exhibits characteristics lasting much longer than topical application.
In a system for sweat control in a biological subject, the improvement comprising:
A positive active therapeutic electrode, comprising:
A negative therapeutic electrode comprising:
A sweat control system, comprising:
A system and/or method as recited in any of the previous claims and further including:
In an electrotherapeutic system, the improvement comprising:
In a sweat control system, the improvement comprising:
In a sweat control system, the improvement comprising:
For use in a sweat control system as recited in any of the foregoing claims, the improved method comprising:
A sweat control system as recited in any of the foregoing claims, and further including:
A sweat control system as recited in any of the foregoing claims wherein magnesium is utilized alone or in combination with aluminum particles.
A therapeutic method and/or system as set forth in any of the foregoing claims, wherein an improved negative electrode comprises:
A method of sweat control wherein magnesium particles are utilized alone or in combination with aluminum particles for sweat inhibition.
A sweat control method and/or system as recited in any of the foregoing claims including means for electrically delivering a deodorant/fragrance/perfume, skin conditioning agents or chemical or drug in addition to accomplishing sweat control.
A system as recited in any of the foregoing claims including means for electrically delivering a deodorant/fragrance/perfume, skin conditioning agents or chemical or drug.
In a system for applying long lasting deodorant/fragrance/perfume, skin conditioning agents and/or any other chemical or drug to a biological subject, the combination comprising:
In a system for delivery of long term fragrance, skin conditioning agents or any other beneficial chemical or drug to a subject, the combination comprising:
In a therapeutic system, a positive active electrode comprising particles from the group comprising:
In a therapeutic system a negative (return) electrode comprising:
A long lasting fragrance comprising:
For use in the application of long lasting fragrance, the combination comprising:
A stand-alone drug delivery patch for delivering fragrance, skin conditioning agents, fillers or any other beneficial chemical or drug to a subject, comprising:
Each and every novel feature and/or novel combination of features herein disclosed.
