[0069] In one example, if Figure 1c As shown, a plurality of diagnosis and treatment arrays 101 can be set on the diagnosis and treatment array of the diagnosis and treatment head 10. The shape of the diagnosis and treatment head can be set according to the purpose of the intelligent Chinese medicine five internal organs diagnosis and treatment instrument.

[0071] The following uses the electrical signal being a voltage signal as an example to exemplify the various circuits in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0072] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 A block diagram of the circuit of an intelligent TCM five-viscera diagnosis and treatment instrument according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.

[0073] In one possible implementation, Figure 2As shown, the intelligent TCM five-organ diagnosis and treatment instrument of the embodiment of the present disclosure may also include a comparison circuit 40, a power supply circuit 70, a button circuit 80, a display panel 90, etc., which will be exemplarily introduced below.

[0074] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 A block diagram of the circuit of an intelligent TCM five-viscera diagnosis and treatment instrument according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.

[0075] For the above device, in a possible implementation, as Figure 3 As shown, the acquisition circuit 30 may include:

[0076] a current generating circuit 310 connected to each contact and configured to generate a detection current, which is applied to the contacting portion of the contact through the contact;

[0077] A voltage collection circuit 320 is used to collect a first voltage generated at the contact portion of the contact;

[0078] The analog-to-digital conversion circuit 330 is connected to the voltage acquisition circuit 320 and is used to perform analog-to-digital conversion on the first voltage to obtain a second voltage, wherein the second voltage is used as an electrical signal for subsequent comparison.

[0079] Through the above circuit, the embodiment of the present disclosure can generate a detection current, which is applied to the part where the contact contacts, collects the first voltage generated at the part where the contact contacts, performs analog-to-digital conversion on the first voltage to obtain a second voltage, and uses the second voltage as an electrical signal for subsequent comparison to achieve diagnosis of physical condition.

[0080] The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the specific implementation of the current generating circuit 310 , the voltage collecting circuit 320 , and the analog-to-digital conversion circuit 330 , and those skilled in the art may configure them as needed.

[0081] In one example, the current generating circuit 310 may include a current source, which generates a tiny current that does not harm a target object (such as a human body); or it may include a voltage source and a resistor, which generates a voltage through the voltage source and applies it to the resistor to generate a tiny current that does not harm the target object. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific size of the generated current, and those skilled in the art can set it as needed.

[0082] In one example, the voltage acquisition circuit 320 can be implemented in a variety of ways, for example, it can include a detection resistor to implement the acquisition of the first voltage through the detection resistor; it can also include devices such as a Hall sensor and a voltage isolator to implement the acquisition of the first voltage. The specific implementation method of the voltage acquisition circuit 320 is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0083] In one example, the analog-to-digital conversion circuit 330 may include an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the specific implementation method of the ADC, nor do they limit the accuracy of the ADC. Those skilled in the art may select an existing ADC implementation as needed, or design an ADC implementation on their own as needed.

[0084] For the above device, in a possible implementation, as Figure 3 As shown, the intelligent TCM five-viscera diagnosis and treatment instrument also includes:

[0085] The comparison circuit 40 is connected to the acquisition circuit 30 and is used to compare each acquired electrical signal with a preset electrical signal to obtain a plurality of comparison results;

[0086] The pulse generating circuit 50 is connected to the comparison circuit 40, and is also used to generate corresponding target pulse signals according to each comparison result, so as to release the corresponding target pulse signals through each contact of the diagnosis and treatment head to electrically stimulate the parts corresponding to each contact.

[0087] For the above-mentioned device, in a possible implementation, the comparison circuit 40 may include multiple comparison units, each comparison unit being used to compare each electrical signal with multiple preset electrical signals to determine the electrical signal range of each electrical signal, wherein different electrical signal ranges correspond to target pulse signals of different frequencies.

[0088] In one example, the comparison unit may include one or more comparators. For example, for one of the contacts, when an electrical signal is collected, each comparator of the comparison unit may compare the electrical signal with a first preset electrical signal and a second preset electrical signal to determine the range of the electrical signal.

[0089] In an example, assuming that the first preset electrical signal is smaller than the second preset electrical signal, the range of the electrical signal can be determined as smaller than the first preset electrical signal, larger than the second preset electrical signal, or between the first preset electrical signal and the second preset electrical signal.

[0090] In one example, the embodiments of the present disclosure can set target pulse signals of different frequencies for different ranges. For example, assuming that the detected part is in a normal state when the electrical signal is between a first preset electrical signal and a second preset electrical signal, and is in an abnormal state when it is less than the first preset electrical signal or greater than the second preset electrical signal, then the frequency of the pulse signal corresponding to the electrical signal between the first preset electrical signal and the second preset electrical signal can be set to be lower than the frequency of the pulse signal when it is less than the first preset electrical signal or greater than the second preset electrical signal.

[0091] Of course, the above division of ranges and description of the frequencies of the pulse signals corresponding to each range are exemplary and should not be regarded as limitations on the present disclosure. In other embodiments, the preset electrical signals may include more, that is, the collected electrical signals may be further divided into finer ranges, and pulse signals of corresponding frequencies may be set for each range. The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the specific implementation method.

[0096] The filtering circuit 540 is connected to the digital-to-analog conversion circuit 530 and is used to filter the output analog pulse signal to obtain the target pulse signal.

[0097] Through the above circuit, the embodiment of the present disclosure can obtain the corresponding pulse signal waveform data from the storage circuit according to the comparison result, and generate a corresponding digital pulse signal according to the obtained pulse signal waveform data, perform digital-to-analog conversion on the digital pulse signal to obtain an analog pulse signal, and filter the output analog pulse signal to obtain the target pulse signal.

[0098] Low-frequency pulse signal electrical stimulation is safe, painless, and easy to operate. It can simulate the effects of acupuncture to stimulate meridian contact points (such as acupoints) to achieve the purpose of treating diseases and is widely used in clinical practice.

[0099] The embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit the specific implementation of each component circuit of the pulse generating circuit, and those skilled in the art can configure it as needed.

[0100] In one example, the storage circuit 510 can be implemented by any type of volatile or non-volatile memory device or a combination thereof, such as static random access memory (SRAM), electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM), programmable read-only memory (PROM), read-only memory (ROM), magnetic memory, flash memory, magnetic disk, or optical disk.

[0101] In one example, the waveform generating circuit 520 may include a DDS signal generator implemented based on direct digital synthesis (DDS) technology. Through the DDS signal generator, a corresponding pulse signal can be generated according to the waveform data in the storage circuit 510. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific implementation method of the waveform generating circuit 520. Those skilled in the art can set it as needed or refer to relevant technologies for implementation.

[0102] In one example, the digital-to-analog conversion circuit 530 may include a digital-to-analog converter DAC. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific implementation of the digital-to-analog conversion circuit 530. Those skilled in the art may set it up as needed or refer to relevant technologies for implementation.

[0103] In one example, the filtering circuit 540 may include a filter. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific implementation of the filtering circuit 540. Those skilled in the art may configure or implement it with reference to relevant technologies as needed.

[0104] For the above device, in a possible implementation, as Figure 3 As shown, the switching circuit 60 may include a control unit 610, a first switch 620, a second switch 640, and an inverter 630, wherein:

[0105] The control unit 610 may be configured to output a switch control signal;

[0107] One end of the inverter 630 is used to receive the switch control signal, and the other end is used to output a reverse switch control signal;

[0108] A first end of the second switch 640 is connected to the pulse generating circuit 50 , a second end of the second switch 640 is connected to the contact area PA, and a control end of the second switch 640 is used to receive the reverse switch control signal.

[0109] In an example, the first switch 620 and the second switch 640 may include switches of the type of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), etc.

[0110] In one example, the embodiment of the present disclosure can turn on the first switch 620 during a time period (assuming that the time period is the first time period) when a control signal (e.g., a high level, a valid signal) is output. In this case, the path between the acquisition circuit 30 and the contact part PA is turned on, and the acquisition circuit 30 is in a working state to collect electrical signals. Correspondingly, due to the action of the inverter 630, the reverse switch control signal input to the second switch 640 is at a low level. During this time period, the second switch 640 is turned off, the path between the pulse generating circuit 50 and the contact part PA is disconnected, and the pulse generating circuit 50 is in an idle state.

[0111] On the contrary, in one example, the embodiment of the present disclosure can disconnect the second switch 620 during the time period (assuming that the time period is the second time period) when the control signal (for example, a low level) is output. In this case, the path between the acquisition circuit 30 and the contact part PA is disconnected, and the acquisition circuit 30 is in an idle state; correspondingly, due to the action of the inverter 630, the reverse switch control signal input to the second switch 640 is a high level. During this time period, the second switch 640 is turned on, the path between the pulse generating circuit 50 and the contact part PA is turned on, the pulse generating circuit 50 is in a working state, and the output pulse signal applies electrical stimulation to the contact part PA.

[0116] The anode of the third diode D3 is connected to the cathode of the first diode D1 and the cathode of the second diode D2. The cathode of the third diode D3 is connected to the input end of the booster 710 and the first end of the first capacitor C1.

[0130] Regarding the above-mentioned device, in one possible implementation, the intelligent TCM five-viscera diagnosis and treatment instrument further includes:

[0131] The display panel is arranged on the diagnosis and treatment handle.

[0132] In one example, the display panel may include any one or more of a liquid crystal display panel, an organic light emitting diode display panel, a quantum dot light emitting diode display panel, a mini light emitting diode display panel, and a micro light emitting diode display panel.

[0133] For the above device, in a possible implementation, the contact may include a metal electrode with low polarization, such as a silver electrode. The embodiment of the present disclosure can reduce polarization by using the silver electrode.

[0134] See also Figure 5 , Figure 5 A schematic diagram of an intelligent TCM five-viscera diagnosis and treatment instrument according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown.

[0135] In one example, if Figure 5 As shown, a power button 801 can be set on the diagnosis and treatment handle 20. By pressing the power button 801, the working state of the intelligent traditional Chinese medicine five internal organs diagnosis and treatment instrument can be controlled. For example, when the intelligent traditional Chinese medicine five internal organs diagnosis and treatment instrument is in the off state, pressing the power button 801 can turn on the intelligent traditional Chinese medicine five internal organs diagnosis and treatment instrument; when the intelligent traditional Chinese medicine five internal organs diagnosis and treatment instrument is in the standby state or the sleep state, pressing the power button 801 can wake up the intelligent traditional Chinese medicine five internal organs diagnosis and treatment instrument; when the intelligent traditional Chinese medicine five internal organs diagnosis and treatment instrument is in the on state, long pressing the power button 801 for a predetermined time can turn off the intelligent traditional Chinese medicine five internal organs diagnosis and treatment instrument.

[0136] In one example, if Figure 5 As shown, an indicator light 802 can also be set on the diagnostic handle 20 to indicate the working status of the diagnostic instrument. For example, when the power button 801 is pressed and the diagnostic instrument is turned on, the indicator light 802 can be lit; when the diagnostic instrument is turned off, the indicator light 802 can be turned off.

[0137] In one example, if Figure 5 As shown, a display panel 90 can be provided on the diagnosis and treatment handle 20 , and the display panel 90 can display time, diagnosis parameters (such as levels and parameters corresponding to different ranges), the frequency of the pulse signal, etc.

[0138] Of course, the display panel 90 can also be used to display the diagnosis status of the diagnostic instrument. When the diagnostic instrument contacts the acupuncture points of the five internal organs or other parts, the diagnostic instrument can start diagnosing the contact part. In this case, the display panel 90 can be used to display the detection and diagnosis status of the contact part.

[0139] In one example, if Figure 5 As shown, other components 91 can be provided on the diagnostic handle 20. The other components 91 can be, for example, clamping components. For example, the shape of the diagnostic instrument can be set to the shape of a pen, and the clamping component can be similar to a pen clip, which is used to clamp the diagnostic instrument on other objects (such as books, shirt pockets, etc.) to facilitate the carrying of the diagnostic instrument.

[0140] In one example, the diagnostic head 10 is connected to the diagnostic handle 20 through a connecting portion, the radial dimension of the connecting portion is smaller than the portion of the diagnostic head 10 adjacent to the connecting portion and the portion of the diagnostic handle 20 adjacent to the connecting portion, the length of the diagnostic handle 20 can be 10cm-14cm, and the diameter of each contact of the diagnostic head 10 can be 0.45cm-0.55cm.

[0141] The intelligent TCM five-organ diagnosis and treatment instrument of the disclosed embodiment can be used for any part of the target object, which can be a human or other living organisms.

[0142] In one example, the intelligent TCM five-organ diagnosis and treatment instrument can target the acupoints of the target object (such as the Shenque point), and multiple sites of the specific acupoints. Based on the normal electrical signal range of the Shenque point, it can detect the electrical signals of multiple sites, mainly the upper, lower, left, right, and middle sites, to diagnose the physiological and pathological conditions of the whole body including the five internal organs, and promote the recovery of the whole body with the five internal organs as the core through pulse electrical stimulation of the sites with abnormal electrical signals.

[0143] Acupoints are specialized locations on the body surface where qi and blood from the internal organs and meridians converge. They serve as both the reflection points of disease and the therapeutic sites, possessing both diagnostic and therapeutic functions. Research has found that most acupoints exhibit low resistance and high electrical potential. When disease develops, the electrical properties of these acupoints change. Therefore, localized acupoint location and diagnosis can be achieved by detecting electrical signals at these locations.

[0144] The Shenque point, where the navel is located, has the effects of relaxing the meridians and activating collaterals, harmonizing qi and blood, regulating the internal organs, and promoting health and wellness. It can be used in TCM to diagnose and treat disorders of the five internal organs, and has therapeutic effects on the digestive, respiratory, urinary, reproductive, nervous, and cardiovascular systems. It can be widely used in internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, pediatrics, dermatology, and otorhinolaryngology. The intelligent TCM five internal organs diagnostic and treatment instrument proposed in this disclosed embodiment is based on classical TCM theory and can target specific acupoints, filling a gap in this field on the market. It has enormous potential for development and will create positive economic and social benefits.

[0145] The diagnostic and therapeutic contacts of the intelligent TCM five-organ diagnosis and treatment instrument proposed in this disclosure detect electrical signals at multiple acupoints, primarily the upper, lower, left, right, and middle points of the Shenque acupoint. Changes in acupoint electrical signals reflect the severity of symptoms and indicate problems with the corresponding five TCM organs and the entire body, allowing the user to perform a preliminary self-diagnosis. Subsequently, pulsed electrical stimulation of these multiple acupoints provides benign stimulation to the body, achieving the goal of regulating the TCM five-organ system (heart, kidney, liver, lung, spleen), and the entire body.

[0146] The intelligent TCM five-viscera diagnosis and treatment instrument proposed in the present disclosure is intended to be based on the essence of traditional TCM theory, fully integrating the dual functions of acupoints of "diagnosing diseases" and "treating diseases", selecting the Shenque acupoint that has the function of regulating the "five organs" of TCM and the whole body, and designing a "umbilical therapy" health care device with preliminary TCM diagnosis and self-care treatment functions, to provide health care and auxiliary treatment methods for sub-healthy people and patients with chronic diseases. The intelligent TCM five-viscera diagnosis and treatment instrument proposed in the present disclosure has a contact at one end, which is connected to the internal acquisition circuit, and can measure the electrical signals of acupoints at multiple sites mainly including the five sites of the navel, and use the changes in the acupoint electrical signals to reflect the deficiency and excess of the disease, which helps to assist in TCM diagnosis. After the diagnosis is completed, the circuit is switched to the pulse electrical stimulation mode, and the multiple contacts are used to perform pulse electrical stimulation on the diseased parts to promote the recovery of the whole body with the five internal organs as the core.

[0147] The intelligent TCM five-organ diagnosis and treatment instrument proposed in the present invention integrates TCM diagnosis, prevention and treatment. It is a small TCM device that performs pulsed electrical stimulation on the navel (Shenque point). It is easy to operate and has significant effects. It will have a positive significance for promoting the health level of the people and improving the physical fitness of the people.

[0148] The intelligent TCM five-organ diagnosis and treatment instrument proposed in the present invention has gentle stimulation, comfortable body feeling, long-lasting effect, convenient portability, flexible use, strong acupoint targeting, and has multiple functions of TCM diagnosis, health care and treatment.

[0149] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present disclosure, but the scope of protection of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this disclosure should be included in the scope of protection of the present disclosure. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present disclosure should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
