Deep Brain Stimulation Device Having Wireless Power Feeding By Magnetic Induction
First Claim
1. A deep brain stimulation (DBS) device having power wirelessly fed by a magnetic induction to stimulate a cerebral nerve of a patient having abnormal motor and sensory functions so as to normalize functions of a brain of the patient, the DBS device comprising:
- a hat module which is installed inside a hat put on a head of the patient to generate a rotating magnetic field; and
an implantation module which is implanted through a skull under a scalp to contact a nervous system of the patient and combined with the rotating magnetic field of the hat module to stimulate the cerebral nerve using induced power generated by the magnetic induction.

Abstract
Provided is a deep brain stimulation (DBS) device having power wirelessly fed by a magnetic induction to form a rotating magnetic field using a rotating magnetic field disk installed inside a hat put on a patient and generate induced power using an induction coil plate fixed underneath a scalp of the patient to be combined with the rotating magnetic field, to drive electrodes implanted into a brain of the patient so as to correct abnormal motor and sensory functions of the patient using power wirelessly fed from an outside into a body of the patient. The DBS device includes: a hat module which is installed inside a hat put on a head of the o patient to generate a rotating magnetic field; and an implantation module which is implanted through a skull under a scalp to contact a nervous system of the patient and combined with the rotating magnetic field of the hat module to stimulate the cerebral nerve using induced power generated by the magnetic induction.
