Connecting cable for use with a pulse generator and a shock wave generator

An apparatus for disintegrating calculi situated in the body of a life form comprising:

• middle conductor connecting a pulse generator to a shock wave generator;
• first shielding concentrically surrounding said middle conductor, said middle conductor and said first shielding transmitting pulses from the pulse generator to the shock wave generator;
• second shielding concentrically surrounding said first shielding and connected to ground at the pulse generator and connected to ground at the shock wave generator.

An apparatus for disintegrating calculi situated in the body of a life form, comprising:

• pulse generator having means for storing a charge and means for generating a pulse on an output, said means for generating a pulse connected to said means for storing a charge;
• shock wave generator having a primary coil;
• cable for connecting said pulse generator to said shock wave generator having middle conductor connected to said output of said pulse generator and to a first end of said primary coil in said shock wave generator, first shielding connected to a grounded side of said means for storing a charge in said pulse generator and to a second end of said primary coil in said shock wave generator, and second shielding connecting housing grounds of said pulse generator and said shock wave generator, said middle conductor, said first shielding and said second shielding insulated from each other and forming a triaxial cable.
