Electronic muscle stimulator finger tip

Description

A finger tip for electronic stimulation of subcutaneous muscle tissue using an electrically operable stimulator that delivers electrical pulses through a wire to an electrode on the tip sufficient to cause the muscles to contract and result in a clinically perceptable increase in subcutaneous muscle tone when the finger tip is placed on the skin.

FIG. 1 is a side perspective view of an electronic muscle stimulator finger tip, showing my new design;

FIG. 2 is top view thereof;

FIG. 3 is an exterior view thereof;

FIG. 4 is bottom view thereof; and,

FIG. 5 is an interior view thereof.

The broken line showing a hand in FIG. 1 is for illustrative purposes only and forms no part of the claimed design. The wire attached to the finger tip stimulator has been cut off for ease of illustration in the Figures.

Claims
