Abstract
A core ( ) is housed in a box ( ) in which a box upper board ( ) is electrically insulative and nonmagnetic. The core has front and rear side legs ( ) directed toward the box upper board ( ). A coil ( ) is wound around the core ( ). An air way ( ) is formed in a box bottom board ( ). A blower ( ) is attached to the air way. Other air ways which cooperate with the air way ( ) to form air pathways passing over the coil ( ) are formed in box side boards ( ). Pulse current or alternating current is supplied to the coil ( ) to generate magnetic fluxes toward a region from a front of the urethral orifice to a rear of the anus, so that urinary incontinence is treated by eddy currents induced in the living body.
