Patent

CA 2493617

The invention relates to impulse therapy and particularly to a device for applying impulse pressure intermittently to a human foot to enhance blood circulation around the body. In the prior art impulse pressure is applied by means of an inflatable bladder applied to the foot. To be effective the bladder has to be filled rapidly and this produces unacceptable noise during operation. The bladder in accordance with invention is provided with internal means acting to dissipate fluid flow with accompanying reduction in fluid flow rates and consequent noise levels during the pressurisation process.

L'invention concerne la thérapie par impulsion et particulièrement un dispositif pour appliquer une pression d'impulsion par intermittence au pied d'un homme pour améliorer la circulation sanguine dans le corps. Dans l'art antérieur, la pression d'impulsion est appliquée à l'aide d'un sac gonflable appliqué sur le pied. Pour être efficace, le sac gonflable doit être rempli rapidement et cette opération produit alors un bruit inacceptable. Le sac gonflable selon l'invention est muni de moyens intérieurs pour disperser le flux fluidique avec une réduction simultanée des vitesses d'écoulement fluidique et des niveaux sonores conséquents pendant le processus de pressurisation.
