Hypertension descending device

Abstract

Disclosed is a hypertension descending device capable of curing a hypertension disease by stimulating a patient's Acupuncture point Renying (or referred to as “carotid sinus”) by repeated cold pressure vibration. The hypertension descending device is designed to allow common users to use it easily, and provides a good hypertension descent effect by stimulating the patient's carotid sinus (Acupuncture point Renying) portion while maintaining a uniform cooling temperature of the contact tip, which is in contact with the patient's carotid sinus (Acupuncture point Renying) portion.

1 . A hypertension descending device, which includes a contact tip protruding upwardly, a thermo electric module having a heat sink mounted at the lower portion thereof, and a cooling fan and a number of vibration motors mounted at the lower portion of the heat sink, the lower part of the hypertension descending device comprising: 
 a temperature sensor having a thermister and resistances;    a temperature controller for checking a cooling temperature of the contact tip while a resistance value of the thermister is varied when the temperature of the contact tip is changed;    a key input part having a number of switches and resistances for inputting a temperature set by a user; and    a current controller for controlling electric current supplied to the thermo electric module according to pulse width modulated control signal outputted from the temperature controller, the current controller having a smoothing filter and a transistor, the smoothing filter having resistances and a capacitor, the transistor for varying strength of electric current supplied to the thermo electric module according to signal outputted from an arithmetic amplifier,    wherein the contact tip is in contact with a patient's carotid sinus (Acupuncture point Renying: about 10 mm/DIA), which is located at the left side or the right side of the patient's neck portion, at the temperature of about 2° C.±3° C. for 4˜10 minutes and stimulates the patient's carotid sinus portion by cold pressure, so that a barorecepter for controlling blood pressure by the patient's autonomic nervous system descends the blood pressure by stimulating the central nervous system.
