This solution describes solution of vibromechanism for stimulation nerve paths and nerve endings injured patients. Medical doctors stimulate nerve paths and nerve endings patients after injury of spine or after another injury where was broken nerve endings. These methods are in primary designed for tetraplegic and paraplegic patients specially for men. For this request was developed device and mechanism for vibrostimulation of nerve paths and nerve endings. In develop of construction has been paying attention to safety of mechanism. Next were taken into account the construction of other devices, especially their shortcomings in the operation on the accumulator. For mains powered vibrators 230 (110) Volt were assessed for safety and noise vibrating mechanism. The sum of all failures was proposed structure described below. The success rate of this vibration method is reported mostly between 60-80%.
Key words: vibration / excenter / amplitude / frequency / DC engine
