Abstract
Abstract An apparatus is provided for controlled inhibition of the central nervous system of humans and animals, mostly for electronarcosis. The apparatus comprises a pair of electrodes adapted for controlled application of current to a patient and at least two alternators coupled to the electrodes and adapted for generating different frequency currents capable of applying interferential currents to the patient. Each alternator has a respective voltage amplifier and power amplifier and a power supply unit is provided for the alternators. Connected to the outputs of the voltage amplifiers is an electromechanically operated current regulator for controlling the degree and intensity of the inhibition applied to the electrodes and thus to the central nervous system.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
171 words
Apparatus for controlled inhibition of the central nervous system of human or animal patients mostly for electronarcosis, said apparatus comprising: a pair of electrodes adapted for controlled application of current to a patient; at least two alternators coupled to the electrodes and adapted for generating current different in frequency and capable of affecting the patient''s organism with interferential currents such that the current passing through the patient corresponds in frequency to the difference of the frequencies of said alternators; a voltage amplifier and power amplifier connected between each said alternator and said electrodes; a power supply unit for said alternators; electromechanically-operated Regulator means connected to said alternators through the intermediary of said voltage amplifiers respectively for simultaneous, synchronous or separate selective control of the current passing through the patient, wherein said electromechanically operated current regulator means comprises at least two operatively associated potentiometers, each connected to one of each of said alternators through the intermediary of said voltage amplifiers respectively, and means for selectively regulating the potentiometers either separately or simultaneously.
