  • Patent number: 6924723
    Abstract: A magnetic field generating device comprising a frame about which a current carrying coil of conductor is wound. The frame preferably includes spaced-apart side panels and an auxiliary supplementary cooling system panel. Each of the panels is configured with a plurality of spacers and/or perforations to facilitate and encourage the movement of air within the apparatus. The spacers are preferably provided on the interior surfaces of the primary panels to maintain the coil winding in a centered position therewith. Spacers may also be interpositioned between the various layers of the coil itself to enable airflow into and around the various coil layers. Of course, in the alternate embodiment a plurality of coils may be provided such that each individual layers or combination thereof may comprise an individual coil.

  • Patent number: 6443882
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for relieving pain associated with degenerative diseases and disorders in biological subjects such as mammals. The method employs the use of an apparatus which is capable of producing a magnetic field of a particular nature which has been proven in human tests to dramatically reduce pain. An embodiment of the apparatus includes a frame, a plurality of magnets capable of producing a magnetic field wherein each of the plurality of magnets has a north pole and a south pole and a longitudinal axis passing therethrough and are partially held in place by the frame. Another embodiment incorporates a coil of electrically conducting material is wrapped about a frame, and/or the plurality of magnets in an orthogonal relationship to the longitudinal axis of each of the plurality of magnets. A source of electrical energy supplies an electrical current to the coil enabling a magnetic field to be produced therefrom.

  • Patent number: 6083149
    Abstract: A magnetic field device and method for inhibiting angiogenesis and retarding growth rates of cancerous tumors present in mammals. The apparatus includes a frame, and a wire consisting of electrically conducting material. The wire is wrapped around the frame to form a coil. A source of AC current is connected to a transformer to vary the AC voltage. The AC current is passed through a bridge rectifier and then to the coil of wire enabling a DC rectified wave magnetic field to be produced therefrom. The method employs the use of an apparatus which is capable of producing a magnetic field of a particular nature which has been proven in animal studies to affect angiogenesis and retard the growth rate of cancerous tumors.
