Embodiment Construction

[0033] This embodiment is an acupuncture needle capable of measuring six components of micro-force in acupuncture manipulations of traditional Chinese medicine, including a needle handle 2, a shell 3, a twisting strain gauge 4, a twisting strain beam 5, a translational strain gauge 6, a swinging strain gauge 7, a Insert the strain beam 8, lift and insert the strain gauge 9, the hollow bolt 10, the screw 11, the needle body 12, the strain beam axle 13 and the supporting sleeve 14.

[0034] The supporting sleeve 14 is located in the housing 3, the lower end of the needle handle 2 is located in the upper part of the housing 3, and is fixedly connected with the twisting strain beam 5 located at the upper end of the supporting sleeve 14; the strain beam axle 13 is located in the inner bottom of the housing 3, and is connected with The lifting and inserting strain beam 8 at the lower end of the supporting sleeve 14 is affixed. The twisting strain gauges 4 and translational strain ga...

Abstract

An acupuncture needle capable of measuring six-component micro-force of traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture manipulation is characterized in that twisting strain gauges and translation strain gauges are respectively adhered on twisting strain beams, swing strain gauges and lifting and inserting strain gauges are respectively adhered on light and inserting beams. Signal wires of the twisting strain gauges, the translation strain gauges, the swing strain gauges and the lifting and inserting strain gauges pass through an inner hole of a needle handle, one end of each signal wire is connected with one twisting strain gauge, the translation strain gauges, the swing strain gauges and the lifting and inserting strain gauges and bridged, and the other ends of the signal wires of the twisting strain gauges, the translation strain gauges, the swing strain gauges and the lifting and inserting strain gauges are respectively communicated with a dynamic and static strain tester. When the acupuncture needle applies force, force F and moments M are generated in the directions of x, y and z, the acquired data are analyzed subsequently by a computer so as to measure the force born by a needle body in the acupuncture process in real time and quantitatively, therefore, experiments means and scientific evidences are provided for the researches on acupuncture manipulation and objective judgments on the treatment effects of acupuncture, and a novel technical method is also provided for other biological and medical engineering fields to measure the multi-component micro-force and micro-displacement signals.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to acupuncture-like filiform needles of traditional Chinese medicine and the related field of biomedical engineering, in particular to an acupuncture needle capable of measuring six components of micro-force in acupuncture techniques of traditional Chinese medicine. Background technique [0002] Acupuncture is to insert the filiform needle into the patient's body according to certain acupoints, and use acupuncture techniques such as twisting and lifting to treat diseases. There are three main therapeutic effects of acupuncture and moxibustion: dredging the meridians, harmonizing yin and yang, strengthening the body and eliminating pathogenic factors. The basic techniques mainly include lifting and inserting and twirling. In addition to the basic techniques, there are also auxiliary techniques, including walking, scraping, flicking, shaking, and trembling. Real-time data collection and information processing research on force para...
