It should be clear that the shape of implanted device may be adapted to be installed in specific blood vessel.
In order to make the shape and size of implant, change may be collected by scanning technique such as CT scan or MRIThe data of the blood vessel of diameter.According to these data, such as, for all two arteria renalis patients, people can derive implantNecessary shape and size.This measurement can be completed again in the case of no surgical operation, thus increase the comfortable of patientDegree and health and reduce medical-risk.After this measurement, implant can coordinate one or more blood of patient with customizedPipe.
In a preferred embodiment, at least a portion of one or more implanted devices of the system is by display magnetic hysteresisAt least one material is made, such as ferromagnetic, Ferrimagnetic or anti-ferromagnetically material.In addition, external energy provide part can at one orTime-varying magnetic field is formed at the position of multiple implanted devices.In preferred embodiment, the time-varying magnetic field is formed by electric coil,Changing currents with time, which is sent, passes through electric coil.
Magnetic hysteresis is derived from the excessive of material.Most well-known and most-often used is ferromagnetic, anti-ferromagnetically and ferrimagnetic material.TheseMagnetic properties with nonlinearity, i.e. induced magnetic fields not directly to material internal to be applied in magnetic field proportional.However, superCertain temperature, referred to as Curie or Ne&1&el temperature are crossed, all these materials lose its specific magnetic properties.The temperature is for tool(material-specific) of body material.More than the temperature, ferromagnetic, anti-ferromagnetically and ferrimagnetic material become paramagnetism or anti-Magnetic, and thus lose its nonlinear magnetic properties.The nonlinear magnetic properties of ferromagnetic, anti-ferromagnetically and ferrimagnetic materialCan by application time-varying magnetic field when observe delayed be inferred to.
Observe the magnetic hysteresis of magnetic material, such as ferromagnet.It is ferromagnetic to be mainly characterized by the presence of spontaneous manetization.Ferromagnet is normalOften it is not uniform magnetization, and is divided into farmland (domains) -- the region of uniform spontaneous manetization, its magnetization degree (per unit volumeMagnetic moment) be consistent, but direction is different.In the case where damaging other farmlands, under the influence of external magnetic field, along field magneticQuantity and the size increase on the farmland of change.Moreover, the magnetic moment on certain farmland can side on the scene rotate up.As a result, the magnetic moment of sampleIncrease.
The magnetic moment M of ferromagnetic sample to the intensity H of external magnetic field correlation (magnetization curve) figure 16 illustrates.EnoughIn strong magnetic field, sample be magnetized to saturation (therewith, field further increases, M values keep it is almost unchanged -- point A).Here, sampleIt is made up of a farmland, saturation Ms magnetic moment is orientated along field.Reduced with the intensity H of external magnetic field, the magnetic moment M of sample will be alongCurve I declines, and is fundamentally outward appearance and growth because farmland, and its magnetic moment is orientated against field.Domain growth is due to the fortune of domain wallIt is dynamic.The motion is hindered because of the presence of various defects (such as impurity or inhomogeneities) sample, this enhances farmland at some pointsWall;Very strong magnetic field needs to shift them.Therefore, as field H drops to zero, so-called remaining magnetic moment Mr (point B) is protectedStay.Sample can be in sufficiently strong field only in the opposite direction by complete demagnetization, and this is referred to as coercive field (coercivity) Hc (pointsC).Further increase with the magnetic field of opposed orientation, sample is magnetized to saturation (point D) along field again.Magnetic is reversed (from point DTo point A) occur along curve II.Therefore, as field undergoes periodically-varied, the curve for characterizing the change of sample magnetic moment forms magneticHysteresis curves.If field H periodic variations, so limitation makes magnetization not up to saturation, then non-limiting hysteresis curve is able toProduce (curve III).By reducing field H to zero change degree, sample can demagnetization (can reach point O) completely.Sample fromPoint O magnetization is advanced along curve IV.
Under magnetic hysteresis, magnetic moment M different value corresponds to external magnetic field strength H identical value.The nonuniqueness is due to elder generationIn the influence of the sample state (that is, the magnetic foregoing history of sample) of given state.
The shapes and sizes and amount Hc of hysteresis curve can be in the range of various ferromagnetic extensive limitations.For example,In pure iron, Hc=1 oersteds, and in magnico alloys, Hc=580 oersteds.Hysteresis curve is subject to processing the strong shadow of materialRing, during material is handled, the quantity of defect changes.The area of hysteresis curve is equal to sample in a cycle of change on the sceneThe energy of this loss.Cumulative volume of the energy also to ferromagnetic material in sample is proportional.The energy is eventually for heating sample.ThisThe energy loss of sample is referred to as hysteresis loss.(for example, in semiconductor substrate and motor in the case of hysteresis loss is inadvisableStator and rotor in), use the soft magnetic materials with low Hc and minor loop area.On the other hand it is necessary to have high HcHard magnetic material manufacture permanent magnet.
With frequency (quantity of the time per unit magnetic turn-around period) increase of alternating magnetic field, led by vortex and magnetic viscosityThe other losses caused are added into hysteresis loss.At high frequencies, the area of hysteresis curve accordingly increases.Returned with above-mentioned static stateLine is contrasted, and such loop line is sometimes referred to as dynamic loop line.
Ferromagnetic many attributes, such as resistance and mechanically deform, depending on magnetic moment.Magnetic moment, which changes, also brings these attributesChange -- for example, respectively observe electrical effect and magnetostriction it is delayed.
Hysteresis curve depends on temperature.The magnetic material that Figure 17 shows typical temperature and Curie or Ne&1&el temperature is 140 DEG CThe correlation of the hysteresis curve of material.It is noted that the temperature dependency of shape is only characterization, list is not provided on axisPosition, this figure means illustrative purposes.It was observed that, hysteresis curve changes with temperature, becomes more acute thinner, finally disappear to Curie orNe&1&el temperature.Since the temperature, material becomes paramagnetism or diamagnetism, and due to delayed without observing that heating is damagedLose.This means material is no longer heat up, hysteresis effect is at least not due to, and be maintained at Curie or Ne&1&el temperature.(underText, two terms " Curie " and " Nai Er " temperature can be with used interchangeablies.) it is noted that due to it is other influence such as directly orThe heating for connecing sensing is still possible, but these influences are ignored in the present case, especially when being brought with hysteresis effectHuge heating efficiency is such when comparing.

Example
Fig. 1 a-1c represent the preferred embodiment of the implant 1 according to the present invention, with circular cross section (Fig. 1 b) and ellipseCircular cross section (Fig. 1 c).It should be clear that in other figures of implant embodiment are shown, cross section can alsoIt is circular or oval, or coordinates the substantially any other shapes for the blood vessel to be most preferably implanted into.
The implant 1 of expression includes main body 2, in this case, is configured to narrow tubulose cage and by the grade system of metal wire rod 3Into being adapted to be placed on inside the arteria renalis.
More particularly, main body 2 is provided with three circular wire rods in this case:In first large round wire rod 4, centreThe circular smaller round wire rod 6 of wire rod 5 and the 3rd of the second of type.
But, the appearance of main body 2 is settable more or less than three rings, more specifically such as two to five, threeTo four, or even more than five rings.
First large round wire rod 4 is by oblique straight and upright Wire rod portion 7 in this case for three and centreThe circular wire rod 5 of type second is connected.
In a similar manner, the middle medium-sized second circular wire rod 5 is by also oblique straight and upright for three in this caseWire rod portion 8 be connected with the 3rd smaller round wire rod 6.
Wire rod portion 8 is located relative to the centre position of Wire rod portion 7 herein.
Result is narrowed tubulose cage, it is also possible to be described as the main body 2 of main taper or funnel shaped, be provided with each other withThree circular wire rods of certain distance positioning, it is at least such when main body 2 is in release or uncompressed position.
Put it briefly, self-expanding main body 2 is preferably provided with the shape for coordinating vein such as renal artery dissection.
According to preferred embodiments, circular wire rod is settable main elliptical shape so that main body 2 by convergence diameter notBuilt with elliptical ring, be ideally suited for the dissection of the arteria renalis.
The representative diameter scope of these rings of main body 2 is from 3 to 30mm, specifically between 5mm and 20mm, even moreSpecifically between 9mm and 13mm.
The typical range of these rings of main body 2 is from 5mm to 50mm, more specifically from 8mm to 40mm, or even specifically inBetween 10mm and 30mm.
Thanks to the elastic characteristic for using material, and thanks to the geometry of main body 2, main body 2 has self-expandable nature.
If it is desired that with metal, then it can be based on Nitinol, known to because of its remarkable self-expandable nature.
When the pressure that it runs into is about 1 to 150mm Hg, more specifically 3 arrive 80mm Hg, and more specifically 5 arrive60mm Hg, more specifically 10 arrive 40mm Hg, and it is equal to the expansion pressure required for change renal artery dissection, self-expanding main body2 are contemplated to stop expansion.
Alternatively, it is contemplated that self-expanding cage, there is the ring of the interconnection of different circular or elliptical shapes.Ring may be formed such thatSpiral form is formed.The different rings of spiral also will interconnection so that during heating or from cage during h substance, not used for electricityThe opening of gas signal cycle is left opening.
In this case, used material has to react in response to the alternating magnetic field remotely applied and for example addedThe type of heat.
Depending on the absorption properties for the metal alloy for building main body 2, delayed principle causes metal in cage to be heated.
Alternatively electromagnetic field generator, its delayed heating for changing polarity and therefore inducing the material being put into inside field.Curie temperature (temperature that a certain material can be heated to, further energy transmission that some materials are possessed can be used in systemNo longer change temperature), until the target temperature that should and can be reached.For example, zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O4) it is Curie temperature 30And the material between 45 degrees Celsius.
Therefore the metal alloy cage that its structure includes zinc ferrite can accurately be heated to 45 degree, close to expect to be used for suitablyMelt the target temperature of purposes.
Another replacement for transferring the energy to cage is probably direct sensing, using magnetic core, reuses delayed heatingBut use more direct mode.
Transfer the energy to cage another replacement may be by heat chemistry release system electromagnetism is used with external triggerRadiation, wherein chemicals are only discharged into demand and suitable position.
It is evident that can apply still for substitute energy field, such as electromagnetic radiation, delayed heating, reach Curie temperature,Direct sensing, heat/chemical delivery system, mechanical/chemical release system, indirect sensing, Joule heating, acoustic energy, mechanical oscillation,Chemical delivery system.
Alternatively, main body 2 can be provided with only being incorporated into the arteria renalis release, for example after external energy is appliedThen the noxious material of release, the noxious material produces the lesion of limited necrosis/neurotoxicity.

Main body is built by the metal wire rod 9 of the braiding with multiple interconnection, intersection and layer.It is this to repeat to allow and Renal vascularOr other walls produce many connections.
In figures 3 a-3b, implant 1 is contemplated that spiral-shaped wire rod 10, and its diameter is gradually reduced along its longitudinal axis.
Winding 10A-10D, is in this case four, is connected with each other with the upright Wire rod portion 8 of bridge joint.
It is in place of the embodiment that therefore embodiment represents different from such as Fig. 1 a-1c, single or continuous helical shapeWire rod replace different circular wire rod 4-6.
The upright Wire rod portion 8 of bridge joint, except the given structure and intensity to implant 1, also provides closed loop.
Really, different winding 10A-10D are still interconnected, to ensure once device is released, fully circular lesion hairLife is in the arteria renalis.
In Fig. 4 a-4b, implant shows the longitudinal metal pearl 11 being bent outwardly, still show between them it is some mutuallyEven, to ultimately form metal cage.
The part being made up of different metal alloy may include according to the implant 1 of the present invention, it is alternatively specific in response to handing overVarying magnetic field has different ferromagnetic properties and/or absorption coefficient.
Alternatively, the basic structure of implant 1 can be made up of same material, and the coating for having attribute change can be set in itPortion.
Fig. 5 embodiment illustrated shows to be contemplated that the implant of spiral-shaped wire rod 10, its diameter along its longitudinal axis byGradually decline, but in the place relative with the embodiment that Fig. 3 a-3b are represented, winding 10A-10E is in this case five,It is connected with each other by the upright wire rod 12 of bridge joint, the upright wire rod 12 of bridge joint extends up to minimum winding from maximum winding 10A10E。
The maximum winding 10A of implant 1 is built by the metal alloy of self-expandable nature, and covered with minimum ferromagnetic properties100 metal level.
Next winding 10B by identical self-expanding alloy build, covered with during hysteresis S. E. A. it is higherMaterial layer, therefore change magnetic field will show different heating attributes 200.
The winding 10D and 10E positioned at maximum winding 10A farthest sides, in a part for the arteria renalis, is provided with delayed existingAs the material layer of period S. E. A. still higher 400.
According to another embodiment of implant 1, one part is schematically shown in figure 6, is built implant 1 and is ledThe wire rod of body 2 is made up of different layers, three layers be made in this case for different-alloy 15,16 and 17.
These different-alloys are in contact with each other, and depending on the different magnetic field to be applied, different attribute will be presented in they.
It is evident that being alternative in or being combined with above-mentioned or further feature, one or more layers can have high heat-insulated spyProperty, heat is directed to the place of needs, and isolate each portion to prevent unexpected blood or tissue heating.
According to another embodiment of implant 1, one part is schematically shown in the figure 7, and main body 2 is provided with micro-Hole 18, micropore 18 is located therein setting the nearly chamber side 13 (being contrasted with remote chamber side 14) of material.
Such material can be for example selection or the composition of one or more following materials:
- ethanol;
- tetraodotoxin and bufotoxin;
- Mo Lu scorpion toxins, scorpion toxin, charybdotoxin, margatoxin, this sieve toxin, plant actinocongestin or He Fu poisonElement;
- calcium suppression albumen, safe card toxin, calcium resistance albumen or PhTx3;

- relaxain D, rapamycin, sirolimus, Zuo Tamosi, everolimus, taxol;
- glutamic acid;
- isoquinolin;
- N- methyl-(R)-salsolinol;
- beta-carboline derivatives.
When main body is coiled in together, such as, prior to being arranged in guiding catheter system, micropore 18 is closure;And releasingWhen being put into its terminal position, based on expansion, these micropores 18 are opened so that the material inside cage metal arm can discharge.
According to another embodiment of implant 1, one part is schematically shown in fig. 8, main body 2 is by thermal activitiesCoating 19 is covered, and thermal active coating 19 is only activated when temperature is more than 35 DEG C so that body temperature will trigger activation.
Alternatively, thermal active coating 19 can be set, and it is only activated when temperature is more than 45 DEG C so that outside applies energyField will trigger activation.
Alternatively, heat-barrier material 44 can be arranged on implant with main body preferably non-heating part, such as blood vesselWall or blood some parts start at the part of contact.Whereby, implant be heated portion of it is heat-insulated with such as blood.
Energy field may be, for example, the alternating magnetic field remotely applied, and the main body 2 of implant 1 is heated thanks to hysteresis effect.
Under the activationary temperature, coating 19 is absorbed, and the active device remained in below coating 20 is discharged into blood vesselIn wall or arterial wall.
It is noted that elongated shape and/or expansive force provide the anchor part that may be considered as implant 1.
Alternatively, hook or barb etc. 29 can as being arranged in fig. 11 in the outwardly portion of implant 1, once it putsThe anchoring ensured can be provided for implant 1 in place.
According to or another embodiment, outer shroud or other basket structures be installed in blood vessel, or whole cage can be equipped withOne structure is to increase the reliability that cage is motionless, to determine the fixed position of implant, to reduce the motion of implant after the implantationPossibility.
The method for placing implant is easy, and can be performed as described below.
According to known practice, conduit 30 and lead 31 are introduced into, the position being left until implant 1.This is in Figure 12With 13 in be schematically shown.
Retract conduit and implant 1 is left into correct position can cause implant 1 to expand.
Because the shape and/or elastic characteristic of implant 1 are suitable for coordinating and being alternatively pressed against artery or venous structuresOn, for example, arteria renalis, so leaving implant 1 in the way of self grappling by safety.
After conduit is fully retracted, implant 1 is fully discharged.
Alternatively, air bag expansion known to can applying.
The suitable cycle can wait prior to applying external energy, to trigger the triggerable portion of implant 1.
It is contemplated that the various continuous treatments by simply applying suitable energy field, without performing the minimal invasive procedures updated,This is the major advantage according to implant and system of the invention.
In addition, in the case where implant 1 sets and changes minor structure, wherein each energy applied in response to outside, it may be considered that the treatment of change, such as by increase intensity.
The alternating magnetic field for the long-range application that can have specific frequency with characterizing for example triggers each part.
It is evident that when with reference to lesion, these can pay close attention to the transmural lesion for extending up to exterior wall, and with it is discrete orComparatively, lesion can be continuous to the parts of lesions of composition.
The present invention is not limited to the embodiment that citing description and accompanying drawing are represented;Conversely, being used to treat dynamic according to the present inventionThe system of the such implant and implant and exciting bank of arteries and veins and venous structures can be made in all categories shape andAmong size, and remain in that within the scope of the invention.
Fig. 9 shows circular braiding implant 21, and one of circumferential zones 22 include the conjunction with a specific Curie temperatureGold, and the second circumferential zones 23 include the alloy with another specific Curie temperature.
Figure 10 shows the implant 24 of funnel shaped braiding, and one of circumferential zones 25 include having specific Curie's temperatureThe alloy of degree, the second circumferential zones 26 include the alloy with another specific Curie temperature, and the 3rd circumferential zones 27 includeAlloy with another specific Curie temperature.
Figure 11 shows the implant 28 of funnel shaped braiding, the anchor part 29 with small fashion of barbs.
Figure 13 shows how catheter tip is guided for example by way of inserting vein or the artery arrival such as arteria renalis 38.
Figure 14 represents that external energy provides the embodiment of part 42, and it can be used for treatment during ablation procedure 43 and suffers fromPerson.
Figure 15 shows the implant in correct position 40 and the zone of ablation in blood vessel in cone section cross section 41Domain.
Figure 18 shows another embodiment of implant, and it has hourglass shape 45, wherein in diameter becomes smallerBetween areas adjacent, a set of heating ring 46 is attached at around implant hourglass shape part.Heating ring is attached to sand in heat-insulated modeLeak shape part so that have seldom heat transfer to blood stream when heating ring and being heated.In addition, heating ring is intended to and the bloodStream is kept completely separate, because hourglass shape part can be by blood viscousness tissue coverage, and can be pressed from both sides at or near implantation end 47 and 48It is tightened in blood vessel.
Figure 19 shows to include the embodiment of the implant of fuse so that at a certain temperature, specifically in realityAt a temperature of existing optimal ablation reaches, between 40 and 80 degrees Celsius, between 45 and 60 degrees Celsius, it can generateCircuit be interrupted.This derives from following phenomenon:Work as implant, more specifically metal implant, more specifically NitinolWhen implant is brought to alternating magnetic field, generation electric current by metal implant in itself, therefore by itself generation accelerate heating (senseShould and Joule heating).The phenomenon causes extremely rapid to heat implant, and this can be by the way that interrupt can be by the electric current of implantAnd stop.The stopping of this electric current can be caused by the fuse in metal implant, and for example may be present when heatingThe resistance of open circuit during more than certain temperature.In this case, fuse will stop further being heated beyond the temperature of 45-60 degreeDegree, more specifically 50-55 degree.Figure 19 a show the detail view of fuse.
In different configuration, as shown in Figure 20, metal implant can be built by marmem so that in heatingDuring device, another construction is occupied in different metal part, and thus interrupting can be by the electric current of implant.Switch or fuse are openedShown in figs. 20 a and 20b respectively with the details of closed position.The different construction opened is potentially by the original of metalForm is constituted so that it is returned to its " shape memory ".This is referred to as " shape memory metal ".
In still different constructions, as shown in Figure 21 and Figure 21 a details, implant is by two kinds of different materials groupsInto both different materials can be interrupted in the contact between heating two kinds of different metals, and implant is passed through to stop electric current.
Another part of behaving excellently of this application is that heating needs to be unidirectional.Blood needs to isolate with heating, for followingTwo reasons:First, blood should not be heated, because the protein in blood can be denatured and form grumeleuse;Second, becauseBlood is huge heat dissipator, can subtract excessive heat away from implant, it will need excessive power to make implantAblation areas reaches preferred temperature.Therefore, wide coating formation is complete remote as shown in Figure 22 around implant, but almostChamber side so that when implant is heated, dissipated without heat towards blood stream.
Figure 23 illustrates idea of the invention, and wherein implanted device (55) is provided with built-in thermal switch (54).Whereby, it is described to plantEntering thing can be by applying time-varying magnetic fieldAnd activate, the radio frequency that can be for example produced by electromagnet or magnet coil or antenna (51).If the switch (54) is closure, the time-varying magnetic fieldElectric current can be induced in the circuit, by describedPick-up loop (53) and the heating coil (52).Switch is closure or opening, depending at the position of the switch or temperatureSensor is attached to the temperature at position of the switch (preferably via thermostat).

The different embodiments of Figure 25 a-g diagram present invention, the shape of its coil and absolute and relative big I existIt is different between different embodiments.Heater coil (72) and pick-up loop (73), which can understand, to be assert, the pick-up loop of presentation(73) a large amount of windings are included, to increase their inductance.Thermal switch (74), is attached to printed circuit board (PCB) (pcb) in Figure 25 a-eAnd be applied, it is connected to heater coil (72) and pick-up loop (73).In Figure 25 d-g, including one or more electronics electricityThe pcb (75) on road may include thermal switch, and/or supply lines coil is connected to pick-up loop (Figure 25 f-g) or switch (figure25d-e).The shape of coil can be arranged to be installed in specific blood vessel, such as cylindricality vein or artery (Figure 25 a) or coneShape vein or artery (Figure 25 b-g).Particularly directed to the arteria renalis, for the cylinder shape heater coil being implanted in arterial lumensIt is preferred.
Temperature profile (77) of the winding of heater coil (76) when activating implant in the wall (78) of induction blood vessel.ThisIt is illustrated in Figure 26, Figure 26 diagrams, heat is mainly deposited near winding, and the outside of blood vessel (79) can also be heated to oneIncrease temperature.Suitable modeled blood vessel and mechanism for testing allow optimum temperature of the setting for implant, with ablation vesselsThe signal jam path of wall, without unnecessarily damaging the tissue that remain intact.
Other embodiment including such as PTC (80) or thermistor switch is illustrated in Figure 27 a-b, for substantive postThe implant of shape.
In some embodiments, it is necessary to or suggestion uses the electric device for needing to operate DC electric current or voltage.At thisIn the embodiment of sample, it is necessary that implant includes AC-DC converter, and implant at least one will be flowed through via sensingThe AC electric currents of part circuit are converted into DC electric current.The converter can obtain AC input electricity from pick-up loop or supply lines coilStream.Such converter can be attached to the larger electronic circuit for the coil that pcb (81) is connected in parallel to as shown in Figure 28A part.
Figure 29 a-29f illustrate electronic circuit, and it can be used in the embodiment of implant of the present invention.If high currentHeater wire or heater coil are sent through, then the temperature around heater coil generation heat, and heater coilDegree rises.If without electric current by heater coil, because making temperature drop inside cooling blood stream.For ablation,Target temperature near 55 DEG C can need to reach and be kept for the regular hour measure.Digital thermostat PCB (IC1) is by TEMPDevice measurement temperature, and the high current by heater coil is switched to opened or closed by switch (IC3), heating is forced wherebyTemperature near device coil rises or falls.Heater coil provides dynamic by the energy sensed in big pick-up loopPower.Control circuit provides power by the coil separated.
Temperature sensor measurement internal temperature, and it is compared with 55 DEG C under 2 DEG C of hysteresis curves.If tested amount temperatureHigher than 55 DEG C, then the chip provides high output voltage level (5V);If temperature is less than 55 DEG C of target temperature, provide low defeatedGo out voltage level (0V).Carry out controlling switch (IC3) using the thermostat chip (IC1), it is to have to integrate in this casePhotoelectrical coupler solid-state relay (SSR) because the SSR allows hand over the alternating current sensed by pick-up loop.Due toThe switch (IC3) needs to provide (thermostat chip can have low-down output current driving force) than temperature sensorBigger electric current, it is necessary to use buffer.Because high switcher input voltage causes closure state and low voltage causes to beatOpen state, the buffer is realized by the inverter (IC2) with big output current.Switch (IC3) and inverter (IC2) itBetween such as 330Ohm resistor (R1) limit switch driving current, whereby protection switch input.The chain (Figure 29 b) provides temperatureControl.Because the chain is made up of active device, this only can work in the case where being sufficiently fed.Figure 29 a chain provide byThe 5V service voltages output of the stabilization of the input AC voltages of the circuit supply coil transmission of separation.The coil provides specific power chain and neededThe more low AC voltages wanted.Input AC voltages are transformed into D/C voltage by half-wave rectifier (D1), higher than target 5V.Then 5V lines are usedProperty adjuster (IC4) voltage is transformed into stable 5V power supplys.The electric capacity for entirely designing visible such as 100nF is placedCouple (local stability of service voltage).
Symbol GND, VAC and 5V respectively represent net value, with identical name bound symbol.These do not have other physical meanings,Only it is another connection.GND is the conventional sign (because all voltages are required to some points inside reference line) of Voltage Reference.This should not be erroneously interpreted as ground connection.GND is ordinarily selected to be attached with low-down impedance, therefore is typically implemented as with reference to flatFace.
Connector CON1 is heater coil (pEnter1), circuit supply coil (pEnter2) with Voltage Reference GND (pEnter3) connectMouthful.
Another embodiment of circuit is shown in Figure 29 c-d.The plate is smaller style, is used as what is presented in Figure 29 a-bOne.Feature is consistent, but it is used compared with gadget.Adjuster (IC4) is different, and is switched and resistor-junctionSynthesize a device (IC3).In addition, big connector changes over connector CON1-CON3 three smaller.Extra company can be usedMeet device CONVCC, CONGND and CONTGo outPlate is divided into platelet with temperature sensor and with the another of chip remainderPlate.So, small temperature sensor can be taken to closer to heater coil.
In Figure 29 a-29f, it is illustrated that according to the embodiment of the implant of the present invention, wherein implant includes separationCoil is supplied, other devices are provided with special supply lines, such as thermostat, inverter and constant DC voltage is for example5V switch, as shown in Figure 29 e.In the other embodiment of the implant according to the present invention, centre cap (centerTap) it can be used in pick-up loop side, to obtain the line power coil (Figure 29 f) that line power replaces separation.This seems to be more easy toIn being integrated in implant instead of using tertiary coil.The latter embodiment can cause following additional problem:Centre cap canIt is placed in inside switch chain.If big electric current flows through coil combination, the magnetic field cancellation of electric current generation falls to actually result in the electricityThe external magnetic field of flowing.This causes the voltage drop across coil terminals.This means in the case of closure switch, cross spanThe voltage for enclosing terminal can be more much lower than opening the situation of switch.The voltage difference may cause adjuster to lose due to high power consumptionEffect.In order to solve the problem, it is necessary to add additional devices to circuit to prevent this problem.Such device can be added for example micro-In cake core design.
Figure 30 a-34 diagram external energies provide the embodiment of part, and it can be used in the system or method of the present inventionIn, for supplying energy to implant by providing time-varying magnetic field in implantation object location.
Figure 30 a-b and Figure 33-34 illustrate an embodiment, wherein the patient with implant can during heating processSit down, because time-varying magnetic field is preferentially produced in the arched arm (90) of generator (91).Arm can rotate, it is preferable to around transverse axis(92) rotate, and patient's chair (93) is also rotatable, it is preferable to rotate, and can move up and down around vertical pivot so that occurReached between induction field in device magnetic field and implant it is optimal inductively.The optimum position of generator may depend on patient,And the orientation of the treated blood vessel of patient.Therefore generator is as illustrated in these figures, wherein the orientation and size in magnetic fieldBoth can change over time, and be particularly preferred in the system and method that the document is presented.
Figure 31 is shown in the possibility using big magnetic field generator (91) around estrade (94), and patient can lie in estrade(94) treatment is received on.Estrade can flatly be moved through generator.
