  • Patent number: 10342990
    Abstract: A multi-layer magnetic device comprising two or more layers containing magnets or ferromagnetic material to be applied to areas of the body of a mammal in which the first layer has one or more protrusions and the second layer has one or more receiving zones that are positioned to align with the protrusions of the first layer. At least a portion of the first layer has a first magnetic pattern, and at least a portion of the second layer has a second magnetic pattern such that, when the protrusions are aligned with the receiving zones, at least one region of the first magnetic pattern faces at least one region of the second magnetic pattern of like polarity thereby repulsing one another.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20130096362
    Abstract: A system for providing at an application surface of a therapeutic device a multitude of magnetic flux lines of different angles and strengths, including a plurality of arms and a plurality of magnets. Each arm piece may have one or more connecting members and one or more magnet receiving sockets or recesses. At least some of the one or more connecting members are generally configured to attach to one or more attachment or mating mechanisms on other arms. The magnets are placed in the sockets, and the connecting members of the plurality of arms are connected such that the arms form huh-and-spoke configurations, chain-configurations, loops, lines, or any combination of the above.
