Abstract:
A device for magnetic focus radiating medical treatment, comprising:a support member holding both a magnet and a needle therein in a way such that the magnet comes into contact with the needle, said magnet being used for generating lines of magnetic force and said needle being used for radiating the lines of magnetic force from said magnet onto a desired part of the human body while concentrating the lines of magnetic force onto the desired part of the body; a hollow casing having a predetermined length and receiving said support member therein with a tip of said needle being selectively projected from a lower end of said casing, said casing having an external thread at said lower end thereof; an outside plug detachably covering a top end of said casing; and a cap movably tightened to the external thread of said casing, said cap having an internal thread at its upper portion and movably engaging with said external thread of the casing at the internal thread, said cap also having a needle hole at a central portion of its wall so as to allow the needle to pass through the needle hole, whereby an exposed length of said needle outside the cap is adjustable as desired by appropriately tightening or loosening the internally threaded cap relative to the externally threaded casing, wherein said support member is an integrated body composed of upper, middle and lower parts, with a magnet holding part provided at the upper part and a needle holding part provided at the lower part while communicating with the magnet holding part, said upper and lower parts of the support member being tapered, with an annular step part being formed on the middle part at a position around a junction between the middle and lower parts, said support part also having a plurality of axial grooves extending on an external surface of the support part at positions covering the middle part and the annular step part, said axial grooves of the middle part communicating with the axial grooves of the annular step part while being leveled with each other at their bottom surfaces.
