Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of moxibustion treatment apparatus, and in particular to a moxibustion apparatus for acting on acupuncture points of a human body. Background Art

[0002] Moxibustion is one of the important methods of traditional Chinese medicine. It has a history of thousands of years and is of great significance in clinical practice. The action pathways of moxibustion include the warm stimulation of acupuncture points during the burning process of moxa, the pharmacological effects of volatile substances during the burning of moxa, and other links. Moxibustion instruments are used in traditional Chinese moxibustion therapy. The method of use is to place the ignited moxa stick or moxa cone in the moxibustion instrument, and then place the moxibustion instrument on the acupuncture points of the human body, so that the effective ingredients and volatile substances of moxa can pass through the acupuncture points and meridians with the help of heat and directly act on the lesions, thereby achieving the purpose of treatment and health care. Traditional moxibustion, due to the burning of moxa cones and moxa sticks, determines that the smoke is very large during moxibustion, polluting the environment, which is difficult for patients and doctors to accept, and seriously restricts the use of moxibustion.

[0003] Existing moxibustion devices control smoke in two ways: one is to add a smoke filter. The disadvantage is that although filtering has a certain effect, the filter also absorbs and consumes a large part of the effective ingredients, which greatly reduces the effect of moxibustion, or the moxibustion time must be increased to achieve the same effect; and its structure is complex and the manufacturing cost is high. The other is to use electrically heated moxa and moxa cakes instead of burning. The disadvantage is that there is no open flame for moxibustion, and the effect is significantly reduced. At the same time, the structure is complex and the manufacturing cost is increased. Obviously, neither of the two current methods can take into account the problem of not generating smoke and moxibustion with open flames. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the above problems, the present invention provides an open flame smokeless moxibustion method and apparatus, which can maintain traditional open flame moxibustion without generating smoke, is easy to operate, has a simple structure, is low in cost, and can increase or decrease the effective ingredients of the moxibustion material according to different needs.

[0005] To achieve the purpose of the present invention, the present invention is implemented through the following technical scheme: an open flame smokeless moxibustion device, including a barrel, an ash-blocking mesh plate, an upper cover sleeved on one end of the barrel and an adjusting screw passing through the central threaded hole of the upper cover, a lower supporting mesh plate sleeved on the other end of the barrel, an wormwood essential oil carrier, and a smokeless carbon rod.

[0006] The upper part of the cylinder body (1) is provided with air holes (2), which are evenly distributed around the cylinder body to provide oxygen for the combustion of the smokeless carbon rod through air convection.

[0007] An ash blocking mesh plate (3) is fixed inside the cylinder body, and mesh holes (4) of appropriate density are evenly distributed on the ash blocking mesh plate to prevent ash from falling after the smokeless carbon rod is burned.

[0008] The upper cover (6) is provided with a threaded hole (7), and the threaded hole is located at the center of the upper cover.

[0009] The adjusting screw (8) has an adjusting knob (9) at one end and a polished end at the other end. The adjusting screw (8) is screwed into a screw hole at the center of the upper cover through the polished end and penetrates into the combustion chamber (5).

[0010] The lower mesh plate (10) is evenly distributed with mesh holes (11) of appropriate density.

[0011] The material of the mugwort essential oil carrier (12) has multiple pores and has the ability to absorb and store liquid.

[0012] A reserved hole is provided at one end of the smokeless carbon rod (13), and the smokeless carbon rod (13) is fixed to the smooth rod end of the adjusting screw through the reserved hole.

[0013] A method of open flame smokeless moxibustion, the method comprises the following steps.

[0014] 1. Use the open flame smokeless moxibustion device as described in claim 2.

[0015] 2. Insert the adjusting screw through the center threaded hole of the upper cover to the appropriate length.

[0016] 3. Fix the smokeless carbon rod on the light rod end of the adjusting screw through the reserved hole, light the smokeless carbon rod, and then put the upper cover on the upper end of the barrel.

[0017] 4. Add mugwort essential oil to the mugwort essential oil carrier.

[0018] 5. Place the mugwort essential oil carrier into the lower supporting mesh plate, with the mugwort essential oil carrier facing the smokeless carbon rod side of the combustion chamber, and combine the mugwort essential oil carrier and the lower supporting mesh plate together to cover the lower end of the cylinder body.

[0019] 6. Rotate the adjustment knob to adjust the smokeless carbon rod to the appropriate height so that the temperature of the lower supporting mesh plate is appropriate. Place the above-mentioned open flame moxibustion device on the part that needs moxibustion, and perform moxibustion according to traditional moxibustion operations.

[0020] The significant beneficial effect produced by the present invention is.

[0021] 1. The smokeless carbon rod is used to burn to provide heat, and the effective ingredients in the moxa essential oil carrier are slowly released, so as to achieve the purpose of traditional open-flame moxibustion and avoid the generation of smoke. The open-flame smokeless moxibustion method and apparatus have simple structure, low manufacturing cost, environmental protection and durability, and the operation method is easy to master.

[0022] 2. Optionally, mugwort essential oil can be adjusted to add other active ingredients according to the different conditions of different groups of people, expanding the scope of use and improving flexibility.

[0023] 3. The moxa essential oil used in the open flame smokeless moxibustion method and apparatus is an extract of wormwood, with a mature extraction process, environmentally friendly production process, and a high degree of automation. The moxa sticks and moxa cones used in traditional moxibustion methods all require the production of moxa floss. The production process of moxa floss is dusty, the working environment is very bad, the labor intensity is high, and the environmental pollution is very large. The application of this method has completely changed the production process of the moxa products industry, greatly improved the working environment, labor intensity, and air pollution caused by dust in the production process of moxa products.
