Problems solved by technology

Laser acupuncture is a new thing that combines advanced laser technology with traditional acupuncture. It overcomes the shortcomings of acupuncture and moxibustion, such as short needle retention time, large number of needles, long diagnosis and treatment time, and intensive diagnosis and treatment times. However, the current laser acupuncture and moxibustion therapy is generally The optical fiber is placed outside the human epidermis to irradiate the corresponding acupuncture points. The disadvantage is that the laser attenuates greatly during the process of penetrating the skin and tissue, and often requires a higher power laser, which leads to an increase in the cost of medical equipment. When using a low-power laser, because part of the laser light is reflected by the epidermis and the other part is refracted, the power of the absorbed part of the laser light will be attenuated by more than 90% when it penetrates through a depth of 2 mm, so it is impossible to form a "light needle" at all. , can not play the role of acupuncture
China ZL200620126846.0 discloses a disposable acupuncture device, which guides the optical fiber into the needle core and connects it with a laser machine for optical acupuncture. Since the needle core has a complete optical fiber structure, the needle is relatively thick, which will increase the number of acupuncture needles. The movement resistance of the needle is relatively large when the needle is inserted, and the adhesion phenomenon between the acupuncture needle and the skin and muscle will occur when the needle is pulled out, and the pain of the patient is relatively obvious; China ZL96102788.6 discloses a composite laser machine, the laser machine Irradiation is limited to the surface of the human body, and the irradiation of deep acupoints cannot be performed through its light guide system
[0004] In addition, the existing laser acupuncture device is equipped with a single light guide channel, so that the laser is emitted from the needle tip, which can only achieve the irradiation treatment of the "point" of the acupoint, and cannot irradiate the entire acupoint in a large range. Therefore, this single light guide channel The structure has great limitations, which affects the treatment effect of patients

Embodiment 1

[0026] Such as figure 1 , 2 As shown, it is one of the embodiments of a three-dimensional light acupuncture device of the present invention. The acupuncture device 1 is provided with a light guide channel 3 extending from the needle point 5 to the needle handle 4. The light guide channel 3 wall at the front end of the acupuncture device 1 Through holes 13 are staggeredly distributed along its length direction. This distribution method of through holes 13 can make the front end of acupuncture device 1 have sufficient strength to prevent it from being broken when it is inserted into the body; the above-mentioned needle point 5 adopts a blade-shaped needle point, which can Realize the function of cutting, can prolong the stimulation time to the acupoints of the human body, and prevent re-adhesion; the needle handle 4 is provided with a light source interface 12, the light source interface 12 communicates with the light guide channel 3, and the light source interface 12 is coupled...

Embodiment 2

[0030] Such as image 3 As shown, it is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is different from the first embodiment in that there are two laser light source devices 22, and the transmission optical path 27 also includes a reflective mirror b7 and a coupling mirror 8 arranged in sequence, and the reflective mirror b7 And the coupling mirror 8 is arranged between the laser light source device 22 and the controlled electric shutter 9, the laser light emitted from one of the laser light source devices is reflected by the reflector b7, and the laser light emitted from the other laser source device Coupled by the coupling mirror 8 into a beam of laser light, the beam of laser light is signal-modulated by the controlled electric shutter 9 , then focused and emitted by the lens 10 in a stroboscopic state, then coupled into the optical fiber 11 and transmitted to the light source interface 12 .

Embodiment 3

[0032] Such as Figure 4 As shown, it is the third embodiment of the present invention, which is different from the second embodiment in that the transmission optical path 27 also includes three mirrors a2, and the mirrors a2 are arranged between the controlled electric diaphragm 9 and the lens 10 , is used to change the transmission direction of the laser light, and the laser light is directly coupled into the light source interface 12 after being emitted from the lens 10 . This kind of implementation is suitable for lasers that cannot be transmitted by optical fibers or when optical fibers are not used for transmission. The method of adding reflectors to change the transmission optical path can realize the function of conveniently irradiating the acupuncture points of the human body.

[0033]The present invention can be used in conjunction with a laser machine for laser acupuncture, or only for ordinary acupuncture, and can also be used to stimulate acupuncture with electric...

Abstract

The invention discloses an optical three-dimensional acupuncture device. A light guiding pore canal extending from a needlepoint to a needle handle is arranged in the acupuncture device; a plurality of through-holes are distributed on the wall of the light guiding pore canal; a light source port is arranged on the needle handle and communicates with the light guiding pore canal. Because the light guiding pore canal is arranged in the acupuncture device and the through-holes are distributed on the wall of the light guiding pore canal; compared with the single light guiding pore canal in the prior art, the optical three-dimensional acupuncture device completes the deep point irradiation in a human body, enlarges the irradiation range of laser, conduces to the regional irradiation on the internal points, realizes the three-dimensional laser irradiation through the needle rotation or the up-and-down movement of the needle, and also realizes multiple functions of common acupuncture, laser acupuncture, the adapting with electro-stimulation, solid medicine implantation, etc. at the same time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a medical device, in particular to a three-dimensional light acupuncture device, which can expand the irradiation range and regionally irradiate the acupuncture points while irradiating the deep acupuncture points of the human body. Background technique [0002] Traditional acupuncture uses steel needles or silver needles for acupuncture, and electroacupuncture for treatment. However, the function of traditional acupuncture and moxibustion can only be acupuncture, that is, it only stimulates acupuncture points, while electroacupuncture Acupuncture instrument is also mainly for electrical stimulation, and has no effect of moxibustion. [0003] In recent years, laser acupuncture has been developed on the basis of traditional acupuncture, and laser acupuncture is widely used in clinical practice in China, but it is still in the initial stage. Laser acupuncture is a new thing that combines advanced laser technology with traditiona...
