[0021] The top sleeve 12 mechanism includes a first elastic switch 11, a top sleeve 12, a top telescopic belt 13, a top sleeve flexible cover 14, a first spring, a first spring base and a first silicone tank 15. The first elastic switch 11 is installed on the top sleeve 12, the top telescopic belt 13 is connected to the top sleeve 12, the top sleeve flexible cover 14 is connected to the top telescopic belt 13, the first spring is installed in the top sleeve flexible cover 14, the first spring base is installed on the first spring, and the first silicone tank 15 is connected to the first spring base.

[0022] The front sleeve mechanism includes a front sleeve 16, a front sleeve flexible cover 17, a second spring 18, a second spring base 19 and a second silicone tank 20. The front sleeve 16 is connected to the front sleeve flexible cover 17. The second spring 18, the third spring and the fourth spring are all installed in the front sleeve flexible cover 17. The second spring base 19 is installed on the second spring 18. The second silicone tank 20 is connected to the second spring base 19. The third spring base is installed on the third spring. The third silicone tank is connected to the third spring base. The fourth spring base is installed on the fourth spring, and the fourth silicone tank is connected to the fourth spring base.

[0023] The rear sleeve mechanism includes a second elastic switch 21, a rear sleeve 22, a rear sleeve telescopic belt 23, a rear sleeve flexible cover 24, a fifth spring, a fifth spring base, a fifth silicone can, a sixth spring, a sixth spring base and a sixth silicone can.

[0024] Among them, the first silicone jar 15, the second silicone jar 20, the third silicone jar, the fourth silicone jar, the fifth silicone jar and the sixth silicone jar are all flexible jars with thick jar walls, wide jar mouths and are not easy to leak. Each silicone jar has two pressures, a spring base and a telescopic belt, at the outer base, with a total pressure of 10N, so that the silicone jar fits closely to the hairline and is not easy to leak. Each telescopic belt and the elastic knob are conducive to adjusting the telescopic belt so as to adjust the pressure of the silicone jar of the cupping device.

[0025] The vacuum pressure of the silicone jar set by the host 1 controller is -65kPa~-82kPa. Under this negative pressure, cupping at the hairline is not prone to leakage and affecting the effect.

[0026] The head cupping device treats various head diseases dialectically, using "tonifying method" and "draining method". Generally, weak stimulation is "tonifying method" and strong stimulation is "draining method". The present invention adjusts the stimulation intensity by adjusting the air pressure, frequency and the thickness of the silicone jar wall, that is, high air pressure (-82kPa), thick silicone jar, high frequency is "draining method"; low air pressure (-65kPa), thin silicone jar, low frequency is "tonifying method". The frequency of the silicone jar is 10 to 15 times / min for weak frequency, 15 to 30 times / min for medium frequency, and 30 to 50 times / min for strong frequency.

[0027] Working principle of the present invention:

[0028] The human head cupping device is worn on the head, and the hair is properly spread in the center of the top of the head. The first silicone cup in the top flexible cover is aimed at the Baihui acupoint on the top of the head, the second silicone cup in the front flexible cover is aimed at the Yintang acupoint on the forehead, the third silicone cup and the fourth silicone cup are respectively aimed at the temples on both sides of the temporal part, and the fifth silicone cup and the sixth silicone cup in the back flexible cover are respectively aimed at the Fengchi acupoints on both sides under the occipital tuberosity of the headrest, and then the switch is pressed to start working. During the working process, the negative pressure pneumatically drives the silicone cup on each flexible cover to produce the action of adsorbing the skin of the human head. The PCB board 6 in the control host 1 controls the power and adjusts the vacuum pump 7 to control the negative pressure; the time circuit in the PCB board 6 controls the electromagnetic valve to realize the control of the pneumatic rhythm and achieve a pneumatic state of one suction and one release, and finally the silicone cup on the flexible cover produces adsorption, squeezing and massage of the subcutaneous tissue of the human head skin to achieve the purpose of treatment.

[0029] The acupoints on the head are composed of Baihui, Yintang, Taiyang (double) and Fengchi (double). These acupoints are located in the depressions of the head skeleton. Therefore, this group of acupoints serves as gripping points, which enables the entire headgear and cupping device to fit effectively to the head when the telescopic belt of the head is tightened.

[0030] Through adsorption, squeezing and massage, it improves blood circulation in the head, enhances the oxidation of head muscles, and gradually restores the metabolic function of diseased tissue to normal. It can be used for patients with cerebral infarction and various vascular neurotic headaches to increase blood supply to the head and improve memory.

[0031] Advantages of the present invention:

[0032] 1. The present invention achieves two major therapeutic effects by lifting, clamping and squeezing the superficial skin tissue of the head through cupping, which causes a small amount of visible substances in small blood vessels in the local skin and subcutaneous tissue to seep out:

[0033] Quick effect, bidirectional balancing effect of meridian regulation, various discomfort symptoms in the human head are relieved in a short time;

[0034] The slow effect, in addition to the long-lasting meridian regulation effect, is also due to the exudation and stimulation in the superficial tissues of the local cupping points, which mobilizes the human immune system to promote the improvement of absorption function, thereby producing a therapeutic effect on various functional disorders and chronic inflammation.

[0035] 2. The present invention targets a group of head acupoints: Baihui acupoint, Yintang acupoint, temples (double), Fengchi acupoint (double). Cupping treatment on this group of acupoints can have the effects of clearing the head and improving eyesight, unblocking the nose and opening the orifices, clearing the liver and improving eyesight, dredging meridians and relieving pain, refreshing the brain and invigorating the mind, dispelling wind and expelling evil, calming the liver and calming wind, and dispelling wind and relieving exterior symptoms. It has good effects on colds, headaches, dizziness, cerebral ischemia, cerebral arteriosclerosis, cerebral infarction, epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease and other diseases.

[0036] 3. The human head cupping device of the present invention has a health-preserving effect. Since cupping on the head acupoints has the effects of replenishing qi, refreshing, refreshing the brain, opening the orifices, and settling the mind, the use of this device for health care can make people feel refreshed, improve memory and work efficiency, and prevent cerebral ischemia, cerebral arteriosclerosis and cerebral infarction, thereby playing a role in prolonging life.

[0037] 4. The present invention fills the technical gap of traditional Chinese medicine's difficult head cupping treatment through the automated head-mounted cupping treatment method, enriches the treatment methods in the field of traditional Chinese medicine external treatment, makes traditional Chinese medicine external treatment more distinctive, and has good promotion and practical value as a non-drug therapy of traditional Chinese medicine, and has broad market prospects.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
