Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cupping, and in particular to a novel cupping jar that utilizes pressure to regulate internal and external air pressure. Background Art

[0002] Cupping therapy is often used in clinical Chinese medicine. However, during the operation, due to problems such as cupping technology and patient sensory sensitivity, patients often feel that the cupping is not comfortable enough, or the negative pressure is not enough, or the negative pressure is too large. Especially in winter when the skin is relatively dry, the cupping is more likely to leak. Among the existing cupping cups, there are only gas cups that increase the negative pressure, or some cups can adjust the pressure, but the adjustment has certain limits. Therefore, if this problem is encountered during the cupping process, the cupping operation is often repeated. Therefore, there is still a lack of cupping cups that are both convenient and can improve patient comfort for clinical application. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the embodiments of the present invention is to provide a new type of cupping jar that uses pressure to adjust the internal and external air pressure, so as to solve the technical problem in the related art that the negative pressure in the cupping jar cannot be adjusted at any time.

The first deformable pressure bag, the first movable piston and the second deformable pressure bag are arranged in the regulating container in sequence. The first movable piston is fixedly connected to the piston rod through the connecting piece. The second movable piston is arranged in the gas cylinder. The piston rod is fixedly connected to the second movable piston. The first regulating switch is installed on the gas cylinder and is located at the rodless end of the gas cylinder. The rodless end of the gas cylinder is connected to the cupping jar through a ventilation pipe, and the ventilation pipe is connected to the second regulating switch.

[0005] Furthermore, the selection pressing button is used to press the upper end of the first pressure rod or the second pressure rod.

[0006] Furthermore, the selection push button includes a push plate and a pivot, the push plate is rotatably connected to the bracket via the pivot, and the first pressure rod and the second pressure rod are arranged in parallel on both sides of the selection push button.

[0007] Furthermore, a gear damping member is provided between the pressing plate and the pivot.

[0008] Furthermore, the upper ends of the first pressure rod and the second pressure rod are arc-shaped or hemispherical.

[0009] Furthermore, pulleys are installed on the upper ends of the first pressure rod and the second pressure rod.

[0010] Furthermore, the first lumen and the second lumen are filled with air or liquid.

[0011] Furthermore, the regulating container is a strip-shaped cavity with a notch on the side wall of the cavity, and one end of the connecting piece extends into the cavity and is fixedly connected to the first movable piston.

[0014] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application may have the following beneficial effects:

[0015] The purpose of the present invention is mainly to design a device that can adjust the negative pressure in the cupping jar at any time. There is a gap in the existing device technology. It is based on the principle of being more convenient for clinical application and improving clinical comfort and patient health. During clinical operation, the patient's comfort is poor, and the negative pressure in the cupping jar cannot be objectively adjusted. The inconvenience caused by repeated cupping operations is that the present invention can relatively objectively increase or decrease the negative pressure in the cupping jar, promote the effect of clinical application, and be beneficial to the development of modern Chinese medicine acupuncture and massage. Therefore, the present invention not only realizes the regulation of the air pressure in the cupping jar, but also increases the patient's comfort experience, making it more convenient for Chinese medicine clinicians to perform clinical, scientific research and teaching.

[0022] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a novel cupping apparatus that utilizes pressure to adjust internal and external air pressure according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 1As shown, this example provides a new type of fire cupping jar that uses pressure to adjust the internal and external air pressure, including: a first pressure rod 2, a second pressure rod 3, a first pressure barrel 4, a second pressure barrel 5, a first cavity tube 6, a second cavity tube 7, an adjusting container 8, a first deformable pressure bag 9, a second deformable pressure bag 10, a first movable piston 11, a connecting piece 12, a second movable piston 13, a first regulating switch 14, a piston rod 15, an air cylinder 16, a second regulating switch 17, a vent tube 18, and a fire cup 19. The selection pressing button 1 is used to press the upper end of the first pressure rod 2 or the second pressure rod 3. The lower end of the first pressure rod 2 extends into the first pressure barrel 4 and can move up and down along the first pressure barrel 4, and the contact between the two is sealed; the lower end of the second pressure rod 3 extends into the second pressure barrel 5 and can move up and down along the second pressure barrel 5. And the contact point between the two is sealed; the first pressure barrel 4 is connected to the second deformable pressure bag 10 through the first cavity 6, and the second pressure barrel 5 is connected to the first deformable pressure bag 9 through the second cavity 7. The first deformable pressure bag 9, the first movable piston 11 and the second deformable pressure bag 10 are arranged in the regulating container 8 in sequence, the first movable piston 11 is fixedly connected to the piston rod 15 through the connecting member 12, the second movable piston 13 is arranged in the air cylinder 16, the piston rod 15 is fixedly connected to the second movable piston 13, the first regulating switch 14 is installed on the air cylinder 16 and is located at the rodless end of the air cylinder 16, the rodless end of the air cylinder 16 is connected to the fire cup 19 through the ventilation pipe 18, and the ventilation pipe 18 is connected with the second regulating switch 17.

[0023] When the fire cup 19 is attached to the skin 20 and the negative pressure therein is small, the second regulating switch 17 is adjusted to the air outlet mode, and the first regulating switch 14 is adjusted to the air outlet mode, and the first pressure rod 2 is pressed to squeeze the liquid in the first pressure barrel 4 into the second deformable pressure bag 10, and at the same time squeeze the first movable piston 11 to rise, and the first movable piston 11 drives the connecting piece 12 to rise, and then drives the piston rod 15 to rise to pump air. At this time, the first regulating switch 14 is in the closed state. At the same time, due to the pressure, the first deformable pressure bag 9 becomes smaller, and the liquid is squeezed out through the second cavity 7. When the liquid enters the second pressure barrel 5, the second pressure rod 3 rises, completing the vacuuming action in the fire cup 19. Then, the second pressure rod 3 is pressed down, and the liquid in the first deformable pressure bag 9 is filled, forcing the first movable piston 11 downward, while driving the connecting member 12, and then driving the piston rod 15 downward. At this time, the first regulating switch 14 is in the open state of the outlet mode, and the second regulating switch 17 is adjusted to the closed mode. At the same time, due to the conduction of liquid pressure, the first pressure rod 2 rises, completing the vacuuming action in the air cylinder 16, thus completing a complete vacuuming action. This is repeated several times until the patient feels comfortable. When the negative pressure in the fire cup is large, the second regulating switch 17 is in the intake mode, and the piston rod 15 is used to adjust the first regulating switch 14 to the intake mode, and the operation is carried out in the reverse manner as described above.

[0024] In this example, the selection pressing button 1 is used to press the upper end of the first pressure rod 2 or the second pressure rod 3 .

[0025] Specifically, the selection press button 1 includes a press plate and a pivot, and the press plate is rotatably connected to the bracket 15 through the pivot, and the first pressure bar 2 and the second pressure bar 3 are arranged in parallel on both sides of the selection press button 1, so that the upper end of the first pressure bar 2 or the second pressure bar 3 can be selectively pressed through the selection press button 1.

[0026] In order to prevent the selection pressing button 1 from rebounding immediately after selectively pressing the first pressure rod 2 or the second pressure rod 3 , a gear damping member may be provided between the pressing plate and the pivot.

[0027] In order to reduce the wear between the pressing plate and the upper ends of the first pressure bar 2 or the second pressure bar 3, the upper ends of the first pressure bar 2 and the second pressure bar 3 can be arc-shaped or hemispherical. Preferably, the upper ends of the first pressure bar 2 and the second pressure bar 3 are both equipped with pulleys.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first lumen 6 and the second lumen 7 are filled with air or liquid, preferably liquid.

[0029] In this example, the regulating container 8 is a strip-shaped cavity with a notch in the sidewall. One end of the connector 12 extends into the cavity and is fixedly connected to the first movable piston 11. The first movable piston 11 is larger than the notch, preventing it from falling out. The two ends of the first movable piston 11 respectively abut the first deformable pressure bladder 9 and the second deformable pressure bladder 10.

[0030] Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate other embodiments of the present application after considering the specification and practicing the disclosure herein. This application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the present application that follow the general principles of this application and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein. The description and examples are to be considered as exemplary only, and the true scope and spirit of the present application are indicated by the following claims.

[0031] It should be understood that the present application is not limited to the exact structures described above and shown in the drawings, and that various modifications and changes may be made without departing from the scope thereof. The scope of the present application is limited only by the appended claims.
