Patent ID: 8744594

Claim:
An electromedical device for the non-invasive reduction or removal of subcutaneous adipose tissue, comprising: an energy source which provides a high-frequency alternating current; at least a first individual emitter and a second individual emitter which are fed by the energy source and which are designed to emit high-frequency electromagnetic waves into subcutaneous adipose tissue; and a directivity control which is coupled with the individual emitters and which controls the individual emitters in such a way that, by direction and field concentration of the high-frequency electromagnetic waves emitted by the individual emitters, a total electromagnetic field with a desired field geometry can be produced in the subcutaneous adipose tissue, wherein the energy source provides a high-frequency alternating current to the directivity control, and wherein a control device is provided for each individual emitter and is designed to change the frequencies, the amplitude, and the power of the emitted electromagnetic waves of each individual emitter, at least a first control element and a second control element, wherein the directivity control feeds a high-frequency signal into the first control element, wherein the first control element feeds the high-frequency signal into a first control device provided for the first individual emitter, wherein in the first control device the high-frequency signal is divided such that a first portion of the high-frequency signal is fed from the first control device to the first individual emitter for emission and further divided such that a second portion of the high-frequency signal is fed from the first control device via the second control element into a second control device provided for the second individual emitter, and wherein by the second control device the second portion of the high-frequency signal is fed at least in part to the second individual emitter for emission.
