[0046] Undoubtedly, technical contents or technical features that are contrary to the purpose of the present invention or are obviously contradictory should be excluded.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, the foot moxibustion box includes a box body 10, a pedal 11 is provided on the top of the box body 10, and two placement areas 12 for placing the soles of the feet are provided on the pedal 11. In one embodiment, the box body 10 is in a rectangular shape, and a plurality of acupoint holes 13 corresponding to the reflex areas of the soles of the feet are provided on the placement area 12. A driving mechanism and a transmission mechanism are provided in the box body 10, and the driving mechanism is connected to the transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism is provided with a plurality of slots 30 for fixing moxa sticks. An ignition device is also provided in the box body 10.

[0048] Before using the foot moxibustion box, a plurality of new moxa sticks are first fixed one by one in a plurality of card slots 30; when treating the first user, the ignition device ignites the moxa stick to be ignited, and the generated moxa heat is transmitted to the sole of the user's foot placed on the pedal 11 through the acupuncture point hole 13, so as to realize moxibustion for the user; when the ignited moxa stick is burned out or about to be burned out, the replacement drive mechanism is started and drives the transmission mechanism to move, and the transmission mechanism drives the moxa stick to rotate, and the burned or about to be burned out moxa stick moves toward the bottom of the box body 10. At the same time, the new moxa stick moves to the original position of the burned moxa stick and then stops, so as to realize automatic replacement of the moxa stick; the ignition device automatically ignites the new moxa stick and starts treatment for the next user; the moxa ash gradually rotates with the transmission mechanism to face the bottom of the box body 10, and under the action of gravity, the moxa ash on the card slot 30 or the surface of the transmission mechanism falls to the bottom of the box body 10, and can be processed in one go after all the moxa sticks are burned out, so there is no need to frequently clean the moxa ash, which greatly reduces the workload.

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the reflex area corresponding to the acupoint hole 13 on the placement area 12 can be the brain reflex area, the lung reflex area, the liver reflex area, the kidney reflex area, the heart reflex area, the stomach reflex area, the insomnia point (reproductive reflex area), etc., and different acupoint holes 13 can be set according to actual conditions; the pedal 11 is provided with an arc-shaped massage protrusion 14 at the position corresponding to the acupoint hole 13, and the acupoint hole 13 is located in the middle of the top of the arc-shaped massage protrusion 14. The massage protrusion 14 can increase the pressure stimulation of the reflex area, play the role of stimulating the acupoints and massaging, and improve the therapeutic effect.

[0050] In one of the embodiments, different reflex areas can be freely selected for treatment according to the symptoms, and the acupuncture point holes 13 that do not require heat transfer can be closed using baffle plugs, thereby facilitating the concentration of heat and targeted treatment, improving the specificity of the treatment, and enhancing the efficacy.

[0051] In one embodiment, the placement area 12 on the pedal 11 is made of ceramic material, so that the placement area 12 can maintain a constant temperature, avoid uneven heating, and improve the therapeutic effect. It should be noted that the placement area 12 can also be made of wood or other materials.

[0052] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the transmission mechanism includes a roller 23, a transmission shaft 24 and a transmission belt 25. The axial direction of the roller 23 extends along the width direction of the box 10. The roller 23 is sleeved on the transmission shaft 24, and the transmission shaft 24 is fixedly connected to the roller 23. One end of the transmission shaft 24 is connected to the driving mechanism, and the other end is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the box 10. The transmission belt 25 covers the surface of the roller 23, and the slot 30 is fixed on the transmission belt 25. Through the above arrangement, the driving mechanism drives the transmission shaft 24 to rotate, and at the same time drives the roller 23 outside the transmission shaft 24 to rotate. Since the transmission belt 25 covers the surface of the roller 23, and the slot 30 is fixed on the transmission belt 25, the moxa stick fixed in the slot 30 rotates together, so that the burned moxa stick is removed, and the new moxa stick moves to the position of the previously ignited moxa stick and stops to prepare for the start of the next treatment, realizing automatic replacement, without the need for manual frequent replacement of new moxa sticks and frequent cleaning of moxa ash.

[0053] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, a plurality of the card slots 30 are each provided with a fixing mechanism, and the fixing mechanism includes a pin 32 and a clamping member 31. In one embodiment, the clamping member 31 is elastic, and the initial state of the clamping member 31 is a clamping state. The pin 32 is fixed to the middle of the card slot 30, and the clamping member 31 has a clamping portion 311, a first pressing portion 312 and a second pressing portion 313. The clamping portion 311 is located in the card slot 30, and the first pressing portion 312 and the second pressing portion 313 extend from both sides of the card slot 30, respectively. When fixing the moxa stick, first, when pressing the first pressing portion 312 and the second pressing portion 313, the clamping space of the clamping portion 311 is expanded, and then the moxa stick passes through the clamping portion 311 and is inserted into the insertion pin 32, and finally the pressing portion is released, and the clamping member 31 restores the clamping state under the action of elasticity, thereby clamping the moxa stick; since the surface of the roller 23 is uneven, the moxa stick is fixed by the above fixing mechanism to prevent the moxa stick from falling off from the slot 30 during the rotation of the roller 23, thereby avoiding insufficient number of ignited moxa sticks and reducing the treatment effect.

[0054] like Figure 4As shown, the driving mechanism includes a first driving mechanism 41 and a second driving mechanism 42, and the transmission mechanism includes a first transmission mechanism 21 and a second transmission mechanism 22. In one embodiment, the driving mechanism adopts a motor, the first driving mechanism 41 is connected to the transmission shaft 24 of the first transmission mechanism 21, and drives the first transmission mechanism 21 to rotate, the second driving mechanism 42 is connected to the transmission shaft 24 of the second transmission mechanism 22, and drives the second transmission mechanism 22 to rotate, the first transmission mechanism 21 and the second transmission mechanism 22 are distributed along the length direction of the box body 10, and the side walls at both ends along the length direction of the box body 10 are respectively the first side wall and the second side wall, the ignition device includes a first ignition device 51 and a second ignition device 52, the first ignition device 51 is installed on the first side wall, and the second ignition device 52 is installed on the second side wall. In one embodiment, the two placement areas 12 correspond to the left and right feet of a person respectively. The first transmission mechanism 21 is located below the left foot placement area 12, and the second transmission mechanism 22 is located below the right foot placement area 12. The two transmission mechanisms are separately arranged, and the moxa sticks on the two transmission mechanisms act on the corresponding placement areas 12 to ensure the moxibustion effect on the left and right feet.

[0055] In one embodiment, a rotation controller 43 is installed in the box 10, and the first drive mechanism 41 and the second drive mechanism 42 are both electrically connected to the rotation controller 43. By controlling the rotation controller 43, the first drive mechanism 41 and the second drive mechanism 42 can be synchronously controlled to work. In actual use, when the next treatment is performed, the rotation controller 43 can be controlled by a remote control paired with the rotation controller 43, thereby controlling the automatic renewal of the moxa stick, which is convenient and more user-friendly. Before entering the next treatment, there is no need to replace the moxa stick.

[0056] In one embodiment, a plurality of the slots 30 are arranged in a row along the circumferential direction of the drum 23, and four rows of the slots 30 are distributed along the axial direction of the drum 23. Four of the first ignition devices 51 and the second ignition devices 52 are provided. The four first ignition devices 51 and the second ignition devices 52 are distributed along the width direction of the box 10 and arranged in a row corresponding to the slots 30, that is, the first ignition device corresponds to the position of the first row of slots 30, the second ignition device corresponds to the position of the second row of slots 30, and so on. When igniting moxa sticks, the four first ignition devices 51 ignite the four moxa sticks on the first transmission mechanism 21 at the same time, and the four second ignition devices 52 ignite the four moxa sticks on the second transmission mechanism 22 at the same time, and each ignites only one moxa stick on the same row, thereby speeding up the speed of igniting the moxa sticks, without the need for manual ignition one by one, thereby reducing the workload, and being able to perform treatment faster, avoiding the user from waiting too long, and improving the user experience. It should be noted that the position or number of the slots 30 and the number of ignition devices can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0057] like Figure 5 As shown, the ignition device includes a mounting seat 53, a telescopic mechanism 54, a heating tube 55 and an electric heating wire 56. The mounting seat 53 is hollow inside, and a through hole communicating with the inside of the mounting seat 53 is provided on the mounting seat 53. The telescopic mechanism 54 includes a driving part and a telescopic part. The driving part is fixed in the mounting seat 53, and the telescopic part is connected to the heating tube 55. One end of the heating tube 55 away from the telescopic part extends out from the through hole, and the electric heating wire 56 is located in the heating tube 55. Through the above arrangement, the electric heating wire 56 is heated and the heat is transferred to the heating tube 55. The telescopic mechanism 54 drives the heating tube 55 to extend and makes the end of the heating tube 55 away from the telescopic part contact with the moxa stick to ignite the moxa stick. Since a large number of moxa sticks are fixed on the transmission mechanism, in order to avoid the ignition device hindering the normal rotation of the moxa sticks on the transmission mechanism, after the heating tube 55 ignites the moxa stick, the telescopic mechanism 54 drives the heating tube 55 to retract into the mounting seat 53, thereby facilitating the normal rotation of the moxa stick and avoiding the obstruction of the ignition device causing the moxa stick to fall off or swing from the card slot 30, thereby ensuring the normal progress of the next ignition operation. At the same time, when the moxa stick is burning, avoid being too close to the ignition device to damage the ignition device and extend the service life.

[0058] An ignition portion 57 with good thermal conductivity is provided at one end of the heating tube 55 away from the telescopic portion, a heating controller 58 is provided in the heating tube 55, one end of the heating wire 56 is connected to the ignition portion 57, and the other end is electrically connected to the heating controller 58, and a groove 571 is provided at one end of the ignition portion 57 away from the heating wire 56, a sensing probe of a temperature sensor is also provided in the heating tube 55, and the sensing probe is electrically connected to the heating controller 58, a distance sensor 59 is provided on the mounting seat 53, and the distance sensor 59 is located on the outer wall of one side of the mounting seat 53 where a through hole is provided, the distance sensor is electrically connected to the driving portion, and the heating controller 58 is electrically connected to the driving portion. During the process of lighting the moxa stick, the distance sensor 59 senses that the moxa stick is at the ignition position, and the heating controller 58 controls the electric heating wire 56 to heat while the driving part of the driving mechanism controls the telescopic part to extend, thereby realizing automatic lighting of the moxa stick; after the induction probe of the temperature sensor detects that the temperature of the heating wire has reached the temperature that can ensure the ignition of the moxa stick, the heating controller 58 controls the electric heating wire 56 to stop heating, and the driving part controls the telescopic part to retract the heating tube 55; by setting a groove 571 on the ignition part 57 to increase the contact area between the ignition part 57 and the moxa stick, the speed of igniting the moxa stick is accelerated, and the moxa stick can be burned more fully, the moxibustion effect is improved, and the waste of raw materials is reduced. It should be noted that the height of the ignition device when installed is close to the position of the head of the moxa stick installed on the card slot 30, so as to ensure that the ignition device ignites the end of the moxa stick close to the head; the ignition position can be set according to actual conditions. In one embodiment, the ignition position of the moxa stick is the position when the moxa stick is upright and closest to the top of the foot moxibustion box.

[0059] like Figure 6As shown, the pedal 11 is hollow inside to form a receiving cavity, and the receiving cavity is provided with an adjustment plate 60, a pushing mechanism 61 and a pushing controller 63. The pedal 11 includes a first side 111, a second side 112, a third side 113 and a fourth side 114. The first side 111 is provided with a first slide groove 115, and the second side 112 is provided with a second slide groove 116. The pushing mechanism 61 is fixed on the third side 113, and the fourth side 114 is provided with a through opening communicating with the receiving cavity. The adjustment plate 60 includes The first side plate 601, the second side plate 602, the third side plate 603 and the fourth side plate 604, the first side plate 601 is slidably matched with the first slide groove 115, the second side plate 602 is slidably matched with the second slide groove 116, the third side plate 603 is connected to the pushing mechanism 61, and the fourth side plate 604 is arranged toward the through opening, and the adjusting plate 60 is provided with a plurality of adjusting holes 62, and the positions of the plurality of adjusting holes 62 correspond one by one to the plurality of acupoint holes 13, and the pushing controller 63 is electrically connected to the pushing mechanism 61. The adjusting plate 60 is embedded in the pedal 11, and the adjusting plate 60 is pushed by controlling the pushing mechanism 61 through the pushing controller 63 to change the degree of intersection between the adjusting holes 62 on the adjusting plate 60 and the acupoint holes 13 on the pedal 11, thereby changing the size of the acupoint holes 13, and then adjusting the temperature conducted from the acupoint holes 13 to avoid discomfort to the user caused by excessive temperature; the adjusting plate 60 and the pedal 11 are slidingly matched to reduce the friction when the adjusting plate 60 moves, and at the same time, the slide groove guides the adjusting plate 60, which is beneficial to the normal movement of the adjusting plate 60.

[0060] like Figure 2 As shown, the first side 111 of the pedal 11 is hinged to the side wall of the box 10, and a support plate 70 is also provided on the box 10. The support plate 70 is located below the pedal 11. A lifting mechanism 71 is provided between the support plate 70 and the pedal 11. The lifting mechanism 71 is close to the second side 112 of the pedal 11. A lifting controller is also provided on the support plate 70, and the lifting controller is electrically connected to the lifting mechanism 71. When in use, the movement of the lifting mechanism 71 can be controlled by controlling the lifting controller, so that the inclination of the pedal 11 can be adjusted to improve comfort. It should be noted that the pushing mechanism 61 and the lifting mechanism 71 are both existing products.

[0061] In one embodiment, a edging cloth (not shown in the figure) is provided at the edge of the pedal 11 to prevent the internal structure of the box 10 from being directly exposed, thereby improving the aesthetics of the box 10; in addition, the edging cloth is not easy to affect the lifting and lowering of the pedal 11 and the position movement of the adjustment plate 60.

[0062] like Figure 1As shown, in one of the embodiments, a vent hole 90 is opened on the outer wall of the box body 10, so that the air flow inside the box body 10 is better, which is conducive to the burning of the moxa stick; in addition, a filter net is also provided on the vent hole 90 to prevent the moxa ash inside the box body 10 from flying out of the vent hole 90, thereby affecting the environment and the human body.

[0063] In one of the embodiments, a moxa ash collecting box 80 with a handle 81 is placed at the bottom of the box 10. When the transmission mechanism rotates, the moxa ash will fall onto the moxa ash collecting box 80. After all the moxa sticks in the box 10 are burned out, the moxa ash collecting box 80 is pulled out and the moxa ash can be poured out at one time, avoiding frequent cleaning of the moxa ash.

[0064] In one of the embodiments, a sock cover (not shown in the figure) is provided at the placement area 12 on the pedal 11 to keep the feet warm, isolate smoke, avoid smog, and improve comfort; a shoe insole-shaped hot pack containing Chinese medicinal materials can be placed in the sock cover, which plays a dual role of medical treatment and moxibustion, thereby improving the efficacy.

[0065] The present invention also provides a working method of a foot moxibustion box, comprising the following steps:

[0066] Before using the foot moxibustion box, press the two pressing parts of the clamping member 31, pass the moxa stick through the clamping part 311 of the clamping member 31, and insert it into the pin 32 of the slot 30, release the pressing part, and complete the fixing of the moxa stick;

[0067] Repeat the above fixing operation until all the card slots 30 are inserted with moxa sticks;

[0068] The foot moxibustion box is started, and the distance sensor 59 of the ignition device senses that the moxa stick is at the ignition position, the heating controller 58 controls the heating wire 56 to heat, and controls the driving mechanism to extend the heating tube 55, the ignition part 57 contacts the moxa stick and ignites the moxa stick, and the moxa is automatically lit. The generated moxa heat is transmitted to the sole of the user's foot placed on the pedal 11 through the acupuncture point hole 13, and the user is moxibustioned;
