Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to an adaptive device that can automatically enhance and maintain the needle sensation during acupuncture. Background Art

[0002] In traditional acupuncture, needle sensation ("getting Qi") is a crucial indicator for evaluating acupuncture's effectiveness and a key element in its therapeutic effects. The Lingshu (Lingshu) Nine Needles and Twelve Origins states, "The key to acupuncture is the arrival of Qi," explicitly stating that the presence of needle sensation during acupuncture is crucial for achieving optimal therapeutic results. Needle sensation typically manifests as sensations of soreness, numbness, swelling, and heaviness in and around the acupuncture site, as well as tightness and astringency in the needle itself. This unique physiological response is considered a manifestation of meridian Qi activity and a key indicator of acupuncture's effectiveness.

[0003] A search revealed publication number CN119424204A, which discloses an electroacupuncture clamp and electroacupuncture assembly for acupuncture, as well as an electroacupuncture apparatus incorporating the assembly. The clamp comprises a positioning base, a suction cup fixed to its lower end, a vertical plate mounted on its upper end, and needle clamps symmetrically disposed on either side of the vertical plate. The central portion of the clamps is hingedly connected to the vertical plate, and a torsion spring is mounted at the connection. An electroacupuncture body is disposed between the front ends of the two clamps, and the body and clamps are detachably connected. A fastening structure is provided between the rear ends of the two clamps. The beneficial effects of the present invention are: preventing the electric needle body from falling off the electric needle clamp due to the patient's body movement; improving the clamping effect of the two needle clamps on the electric needle body; achieving precise clamping of electric needle bodies of different lengths; avoiding the phenomenon of mutual offset and misalignment of the two needle clamps during rotation to reduce the clamping effect; enabling the needle clamps to always firmly clamp the electric needle body. In this application, the acupuncture needle will be connected to the electroacupuncture instrument to enhance and maintain the needle sensation through electric current stimulation, but this method requires reliance on power supply and electronic equipment, and cannot be used in special detection scenarios such as magnetoencephalography and electroencephalography acquisition that require no electromagnetic interference; at the same time, the sensation produced by electric current stimulation is quite different from the traditional needle sensation; in addition, some patients are intolerant to electric stimulation.

[0004] In addition, in traditional acupuncture manipulation stimulation techniques, after the doctor has obtained qi through acupuncture, he or she manually operates the needle handle to perform techniques such as lifting, inserting, and twisting to enhance and maintain the needle sensation. This method requires the doctor to operate continuously, which makes it difficult to maintain a stable force state for a long time; and the intensity and frequency of the manipulation are difficult to control accurately, resulting in unstable needle sensation; at the same time, the doctor's hands are easily fatigued, making it difficult to maintain needle sensation at multiple acupoints at the same time; the level of this manipulation also depends on the doctor's personal experience, and there are large individual differences.

The top of the horizontal slide is slidably connected to the iris blade, and the bottom of the iris blade is fixedly connected to a slider. The horizontal slide is provided with a slide slot, and the slider is slidably connected to the inside of the slide slot, and the top of the iris blade is fixedly connected to the limiting column, and the limiting column is slidably connected to the inside of the limiting slot. The top of the iris needle body fixing frame is fixedly connected to an axial hydraulic telescopic rod, and the output end of the axial hydraulic telescopic rod is installed with an axial pressure plate through a manual fine-tuning nut, and an acupuncture needle is provided at the bottom of the axial pressure plate; the escapement rotating platform includes a base, the main body bracket is rotatably connected to the top of the base, and the bottom of the main body bracket is fixedly connected to gear 2, and the top of the base is installed with an escapement hydraulic telescopic rod, and the output end of the escapement hydraulic telescopic rod is installed with a rack 2 through a manual fine-tuning nut, and the rack 2 is meshed with the gear 2, and marble escapement marbles are installed on both sides of the base.

[0034] In this embodiment, during the acupuncture operation, the acupuncturist first inserts the acupuncture needle 117 into the predetermined acupuncture point according to the conventional acupuncture operation method, and obtains the initial needle sensation feedback in the process. Subsequently, the acupuncturist will securely fix the base 116 of the device on the patient's body surface. In the process of fixing the base 116, the acupuncturist needs to adjust the angle of the base 116 to ensure that the device can fit tightly and flatly on the patient's skin surface to avoid any discomfort or influence on the acupuncture effect. At the same time, the restraint 406 is stored in the storage roll 405 inside the fixing tube 401. When the restraint 406 needs to be used, it can be pulled out through the transverse groove 408 provided on the fixing tube 401. During the pulling out process, one end of the restraint belt 406 will be firmly hooked to the hook column 3 by the hook claw 407 to ensure the stability of the restraint belt. When the restraint belt 406 is pulled out, the storage roll 405 will also rotate accordingly. This rotation will further drive the rotating shaft 402 that fixes the storage roll 405 to rotate. Under the rotation of the rotating shaft 402, the rotating spring 404 inside the device will be compressed, thereby generating an opposite force on the storage roll 405. This opposite force cooperates with the fixing action of the hook claw 407, so that the restraint belt 406 can be tightly and firmly tied to the patient's body, ensuring that the entire device can remain stable during the acupuncture process, thereby ensuring the effect of acupuncture treatment and the comfort of the patient.

[0035] Next, install the horizontal hydraulic telescopic rod 107 at the bottom of the axial pressure plate 102 inside the iris needle body fixing frame 103. At the same time, the horizontal hydraulic telescopic rod 2 109 can apply thrust to cause the rack 106 to slide smoothly on the preset track. As the rack 106 slides, the gear 105 engaged with it will rotate accordingly. The rotation of the gear 105 further drives the iris needle body fixing frame 103 to perform precise rotational motion. During the rotation of the iris needle body fixing frame 103, the internal The limit groove 104 designed in the part contacts the limit column 119 through the inner wall and applies a thrust. After receiving the thrust, the limit column 119 drives the iris blade 118 connected thereto to rotate synchronously. While rotating, the iris blade 118 slides inside the slide groove 121 through the slider 120. Through the precise cooperation between the slider 120 and the slide groove 121, the iris blade 118 gradually tightens inward, and finally the acupuncture needle 117 is accurately positioned at the center of the device, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the acupuncture operation.

[0036] After the precise positioning of the acupuncture needle 117 is completed, the axial pressure plate 102 can be driven downward by the pushing action of the axial hydraulic telescopic rod 101, thereby causing the axial pressure plate 102 to apply an axial force to the acupuncture needle 117. At the same time, the pushing force of the transverse hydraulic telescopic rod 107 can be used to drive the transverse slide 111 to move transversely, thereby driving the entire mechanism to apply force to the acupuncture needle 117 in the transverse direction. This method of applying axial force and transverse force can be used separately or in combination according to actual needs, so as to adopt corresponding operation strategies for different clinical situations. In addition, the mechanism is also equipped with a set of preset control models and sensor monitoring systems, which can automatically enter the acupuncture process through the system control device. During the acupuncture process, if experimental research is required, or for some special reasons, the force or distance of the acupuncture needs to be finely adjusted, the operator can manually adjust the fine-tuning nut 108 or modify the relevant control parameters on the control screen to achieve precise control of the acupuncture process. In this way, not only the flexibility and adaptability of acupuncture are improved, but also the safety and effectiveness of acupuncture are ensured.

[0037] The device has two different operating modes, namely manual adjustment mode and automatic adjustment mode. In manual adjustment mode, the operator can fix the hydraulic injection pump through the locking function in the control system to avoid applying unnecessary pressure to the hydraulic rod. At the same time, by adjusting the manual fine-tuning nut 108 on the axial and axial directions, the operator can accurately apply axial pressure and lateral pressure. These two pressures can be operated separately or simultaneously, so that the treatment process can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs to ensure the maximum treatment effect. In automatic adjustment mode, the device relies on the relevant control model preset by the control system for operation. The operator only needs to set the required target parameter values ​​and working mode through the touch screen 205 on the control panel. These parameters include but are not limited to axial pressure parameters (specifically involving the magnitude and duration of pressure), lateral pressure parameters (also involving the magnitude and duration of pressure), rotation arc parameters (involving hydraulic volume and duration) and compound stimulation mode (this is a combination of multiple parameters such as axial pressure, lateral pressure and rotation arc). After the settings are completed, the automatic mode is started, and the device will automatically apply axial and lateral pressures and rotation arc according to the preset parameters and control model to achieve continuous and stable control of the needle body. An axial force sensor is provided between the system and the axial hydraulic telescopic rod 101 to detect the hydraulic pressure value in the axial hydraulic telescopic rod 101 in real time. A lateral force sensor is installed between the hydraulic control system and the lateral hydraulic telescopic rod to detect the hydraulic pressure value in the lateral hydraulic telescopic rod in real time. Its measurement range is 0-50N and the accuracy is ±0.1N. At the same time, the system has two sets of flow volume metering modules, one of which is installed in the micro hydraulic pump 207 control module and measures the injection pump stroke distance through the photoelectric distance sensor 206. Since the cross-section of the injection pump cavity is constant, the injection pump stroke distance multiplied by the cavity cross-sectional area is the volume of liquid pressed out or withdrawn by the injection pump; the other set is installed in the hydraulic system Ultrasonic waves are used to measure the liquid flow and volume in the pipeline between the system and the transverse hydraulic telescopic rod 107 and the escapement hydraulic telescopic rod 110; the measurement range is 0 to 10 mL, and the accuracy is ±0.1%. The device will transmit the measured hydraulic value and hydraulic volume value to the control system as an automated control condition, and also as the basic calculation value of the algorithm model. During the treatment process, if adjustments are needed according to actual conditions, the operator can switch the mode to manual mode at any time and make fine adjustments to further optimize the needle sensation effect and ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of the treatment process. This flexible switching mechanism makes the device more convenient and efficient in actual application.

[0038] At the same time, the device has the function of adjusting the angle through the escapement rotating platform. Specifically, the base 116 of the platform is designed and fixed to the bottom position of the device, providing a solid support base for the entire rotating mechanism. On this basis, the escapement hydraulic telescopic rod 110 plays a role, and through its telescopic action, it pushes the rack 2 114 to slide linearly. As the rack 2 114 slides, the gear 2 113 engaged with it rotates, thereby driving the main bracket 112 to rotate. This design realizes a 360° full-scale rotation adjustment function. In order to accurately control the arc of the platform rotation, the system is equipped with a high-precision hydraulic injection pump. The volume of liquid pressed out or drawn back by the pump can achieve precise control of the platform's rotation arc, and the two show a linear correlation. On the main bracket 112, a positioning buckle hole is carefully set every 10 arcs. When the platform rotates to the corresponding arc, the marble escapement marble 115 will be stuck in the corresponding buckle hole, thereby firmly fixing the platform in this position, effectively avoiding the free shaking of the platform, and ensuring the stability and safety of the operation. In order to facilitate the operator to perform precise positioning, the platform surface is also specially provided with an angle scale, so that each adjustment can be accurate and error-free, further improving the practicality and ease of operation of the device.

[0039] The axial and lateral adjustment structures are each connected to the box 211 of the acupuncture control system 2, which can detect the axial linear pressure and lateral thrust applied to the needle body. The system is set with a three-level pressure alarm threshold through the hydraulic pipeline switching valve group 209. When the axial force or lateral force reaches the preset first-level alarm threshold, the first-level alarm is triggered, and the yellow indicator light will flash and a soft prompt sound will be triggered to remind the operator to pay attention to the pressure change; when the pressure reaches the second-level alarm threshold, the second-level alarm is triggered, and the orange indicator light will be constantly on and a medium-intensity alarm sound will be triggered, and the hydraulic output power will be automatically reduced by 20%; when the pressure reaches the third-level alarm threshold, the third-level alarm is triggered, and the red indicator light will flash quickly and a rapid alarm sound will be triggered, and the output power will be automatically reduced by 50%. At the same time, the "pressure is approaching the upper limit" prompt is displayed on the touch screen 205. If the pressure continues to rise and exceeds the safety threshold, the system automatically starts the emergency stop program. All pressure data are displayed in real time on the operation interface, including the current value, historical curve and over-limit percentage. The system will use a specific calculation formula to determine the actual depth of the needle tip penetrating the skin. The specific calculation method is: Acupuncture depth = total length of acupuncture needle 117 - needle length outside the skin = total length of acupuncture needle 117 - (initial height of telescopic rod - descending height of telescopic rod). The original total length of the needle can be input into the system by the operator according to the specifications of the acupuncture needle 117 used. The initial height of the telescopic rod is a fixed parameter of the equipment, and the key descending height of the telescopic rod is accurately measured by the flow sensor 210 in the micro-pressure sensor 212 detection system. The flow sensor 210 can monitor the change of liquid volume in the hydraulic system in real time, and accurately calculate the actual descending distance of the telescopic rod based on the relationship between the cross-sectional area of ​​the hydraulic cylinder and the volume change. This calculation method can monitor the remaining length of the needle body outside the skin in real time, and accurately obtain the actual depth of the needle tip penetrating the human tissue through the difference with the total length of the acupuncture needle 117. The operator can adjust the treatment parameters in time according to the alarm level to ensure the safety of acupuncture treatment.

[0040] In the design of the control system, two emergency stop mechanisms are set up to ensure the safety and reliability of the acupuncture process. The first mechanism is the remote control method, and the specific operation is through the remote control 204. The remote control uses advanced Bluetooth technology to establish a stable communication connection with the main control block 208 of the control system. The second mechanism is the emergency button method, which is implemented through a special emergency stop button 202. The button 202 is equipped with a control line 203, which is directly connected to the main control block 208. During the actual acupuncture process, if the person being acupunctured suddenly has an adverse discomfort reaction or feels any form of injury, they can take quick action by holding the remote control 204 in their hand or pressing the emergency stop button 202 to send an emergency stop signal to the control system. Once the control module receives this signal, it will respond immediately, quickly stop the acupuncture action of the device, and immediately perform a reset operation. This series of quick and accurate reactions can effectively terminate the adverse discomfort reaction of the person being acupunctured, thereby avoiding further harm to the person being acupunctured and ensuring the safety and controllability of the entire acupuncture process.

[0041] Working principle: during acupuncture, the practitioner will insert the acupuncture needle 117 into the acupuncture point according to the conventional method and obtain the initial needle sensation, and then fix the device base 116 to the patient's body surface. When the device is fixed, the angle of the base 116 is adjusted to ensure that the device fits the patient's skin surface. The restraint belt 406 is stored inside the fixed tube 401 through the storage roll 405. At the same time, the restraint belt 406 can be pulled out through the transverse groove 408 opened in the fixed tube 401 and hooked on the hook column 3 by the hook 407. When the restraint belt 406 is pulled out, it will drive the storage roll 405 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating shaft 402 that fixes the storage roll 405 to rotate. Under the rotation of the rotating shaft 402, the rotating spring 404 will be compressed, so that the storage roll 405 produces an opposite force, thereby cooperating with the hook 407 to tie the restraint belt 406 to the patient, ensuring the stable operation of the device.

[0042] Then install the horizontal hydraulic telescopic rod 107 at the bottom of the axial pressure plate 102 inside the iris needle body fixing frame 103, and at the same time, the horizontal hydraulic telescopic rod 2 109 can push the rack 106 to slide, and the rack 106 will drive the gear 105 to rotate, and the gear 105 will drive the iris needle body fixing frame 103 to rotate. Under the rotation of the iris needle body fixing frame 103, the limiting groove 104 opened inside it will push the limiting column 119 through its inner wall, so that the limiting column 119 drives the iris blade 118 to rotate, and the iris blade 118 will slide inside the slide groove 121 through the slider 120. The cooperation between the two will tighten the iris blade 118 inward, thereby positioning the acupuncture needle 117 at the center of the device.

[0043] After the acupuncture needle 117 is positioned, the axial hydraulic telescopic rod 101 can push the axial pressure plate 102, so that the axial pressure plate 102 presses down the acupuncture needle 117, thereby applying axial force to the acupuncture needle 117. At the same time, the transverse hydraulic telescopic rod 107 can push the transverse slide 111, so that the transverse slide 111 drives the entire mechanism to move transversely, thereby applying transverse force to the acupuncture needle 117. The axial force and the transverse force can be used alone or in combination to perform different operations for different clinical conditions. At the same time, the mechanism will enter the automatic acupuncture process by the system control device through the preset control model and sensor monitoring value. If experiments are required or there are special reasons, it is necessary to fine-tune the force or distance during the acupuncture process. The operation can be achieved by adjusting the manual fine-tuning nut 108 or modifying the relevant control parameters in the control screen.

[0044] The device has two operating modes, namely manual adjustment mode and automatic adjustment mode. In the manual adjustment mode, the hydraulic injection pump is locked by the control system to avoid applying pressure to the hydraulic rod, and axial pressure and lateral pressure are applied by adjusting the manual fine-tuning nut 108 on the axial and axial directions. The axial pressure and lateral pressure can be operated separately or simultaneously, so as to be flexibly adjusted according to the treatment; in the automatic adjustment mode, the relevant control model is preset by the control system, and the target parameter value and working mode are set by the touch screen 205 of the control panel, including: axial pressure parameters (pressure magnitude, duration), lateral pressure parameters (pressure magnitude, duration), rotation arc parameters (hydraulic volume, duration) and compound stimulation mode (combination schemes such as axial, lateral pressure and rotation arc), and then the automatic mode is started. The device automatically applies axial and lateral pressure and rotation arc according to the preset parameters and control model to achieve continuous and stable control of the needle body. In addition, if adjustment is required during the treatment process, it can be switched to manual mode at any time for fine-tuning to optimize the needle sensation effect.

[0045] At the same time, the device can adjust the angle through the escapement rotating platform. The base 116 of the platform is located at the bottom of the device, and then the escapement hydraulic telescopic rod 110 pushes the rack 2 114 to slide, so that the rack 2 114 drives the gear 2 113 to rotate, and then the gear 2 113 drives the main bracket 112 to rotate, so as to achieve 360° rotation adjustment. The arc of platform rotation is controlled by the hydraulic system high-precision injection pump, and the volume of liquid squeezed out or withdrawn is controlled. The liquid volume is linearly related to the arc of platform rotation. A positioning buckle hole is set on the main bracket 112 every 10 arcs. When the platform rotates the corresponding arc, the marble escapement marble 115 will be snapped into the buckle hole to fix the platform in the corresponding position to avoid free shaking. The main bracket 112 can drive the lateral adjustment mechanism to realize the acupuncture needle 117 to apply pressure to the acupuncture point in any direction. The platform surface is provided with an angle scale for precise positioning.

[0046] The axial and lateral adjustment structures are each connected to the box 211 of the acupuncture control system 2, which can detect the axial linear pressure and lateral thrust applied to the needle body. The system is set with a three-level pressure alarm threshold through the hydraulic pipeline switching valve group 209. When the axial force or lateral force reaches the preset first-level alarm threshold, the first-level alarm is triggered, and the yellow indicator light will flash and a soft prompt sound will be triggered to remind the operator to pay attention to the pressure change; when the pressure reaches the second-level alarm threshold, the second-level alarm is triggered, and the orange indicator light will be constantly on and a medium-intensity alarm sound will be triggered, and the hydraulic output power will be automatically reduced by 20%; when the pressure reaches the third-level alarm threshold, the third-level alarm is triggered, and the red indicator light will flash quickly and a rapid alarm sound will be triggered, and the output power will be automatically reduced by 50%. At the same time, the "pressure is approaching the upper limit" prompt is displayed on the touch screen 205. If the pressure continues to rise and exceeds the safety threshold, the system automatically starts the emergency stop program. All pressure data are displayed in real time on the operation interface, including the current value, historical curve and over-limit percentage. The system will use a specific calculation formula to determine the actual depth of the needle tip penetrating the skin. The specific calculation method is: Acupuncture depth = total length of acupuncture needle 117 - needle length outside the skin = total length of acupuncture needle 117 - (initial height of telescopic rod - descending height of telescopic rod). The original total length of the needle can be input into the system by the operator according to the specifications of the acupuncture needle 117 used. The initial height of the telescopic rod is a fixed parameter of the equipment, and the key descending height of the telescopic rod is accurately measured by the flow sensor 210 in the micro-pressure sensor 212 detection system. The flow sensor 210 can monitor the change of liquid volume in the hydraulic system in real time, and accurately calculate the actual descending distance of the telescopic rod based on the relationship between the cross-sectional area of ​​the hydraulic cylinder and the volume change. This calculation method can monitor the remaining length of the needle body outside the skin in real time, and accurately obtain the actual depth of the needle tip penetrating the human tissue through the difference with the total length of the acupuncture needle 117. The operator can adjust the treatment parameters in time according to the alarm level to ensure the safety of acupuncture treatment.

[0047] At the same time, two emergency stop modes are set in the control system: one is a remote control mode, and the remote control 204 communicates with the main control block 208 of the control system through Bluetooth; the other is an emergency button mode, and the emergency stop button 202 has a control line 203 connected to the main control block 208. When the person being treated has an adverse reaction or feels hurt during the acupuncture process, the remote control 204 or the emergency stop button 202 held in the hand can send an emergency stop signal. After receiving the signal, the control module immediately stops the acupuncture process of the device and immediately resets to terminate the adverse reaction of the person being treated and avoid causing harm to the person being treated.
