Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of moxibustion apparatus, and specifically relates to a warm acupuncture moxibustion apparatus. Background Art

[0002] Moxibustion, also known as moxibustion therapy or moxibustion, is a treatment method that uses moxa sticks and moxa cones made of moxa leaves to stimulate the acupuncture points or specific parts of the human body, and adjusts the disordered physiological and biochemical functions of the human body by stimulating the activity of meridian qi, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing and curing diseases. The mechanism of action of moxibustion is similar to that of acupuncture, and it has a complementary therapeutic effect with acupuncture. It has many advantages such as simple operation, low cost, and significant effect.

[0003] Warm acupuncture is a method that combines acupuncture and moxibustion. It is also called needle handle moxibustion. However, the existing warm acupuncture moxibustion instruments have no targeted methods compared to flat needles (acupuncture needles that pierce the human skin horizontally). The moxa sticks of the existing moxibustion instruments cannot be easily fixed to acupuncture needles, especially straight acupuncture needles (acupuncture needles that pierce the human skin vertically). The moxa sticks are not firm and may fall off.

[0031] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the relevant application, rather than to limit the application. It is also necessary to explain that, for ease of description, only the parts related to the application are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0032] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0033] Embodiment 1

[0034] A warm acupuncture and moxibustion device comprises: a base 1, the bottom of the base 1 extends outwards to the edges to form a ring-shaped base platform 11, and the base platform 11 is provided with an opening 111; an outer tube 2 with openings at both ends, the lower half of the outer tube 1 is sleeved on the outside of the upper half of the base 2; a moxa stick fixing piece 3 with openings at both ends, the top edge of the moxa stick fixing piece 3 extends in all directions, the bottom surface of the extended part is clamped with the top surface of the outer tube, and the moxa stick fixing piece 3 is used to fix the moxa stick; an acupuncture needle positioning piece 4, the two ends of which are clamped with the inner wall of the base 1, and the center of which is provided with a needle hole 41 for the straight acupuncture needle to pass through.

[0035] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the base platform 11 described in the present application has an opening 111 for the passage of acupuncture needles, which makes it convenient to place the device directly on the skin and above the acupuncture needles. The opening 111 is used to pass the tail of the flat needle acupuncture needle. Therefore, the moxibustion device described in the present application can not only perform moxibustion at the same time as acupuncture, but also provide a solution for flat needle warm acupuncture.

[0036] The moxa stick fixing member 3 described in the present application is located inside the outer tube and is clamped with the outer tube 2. The moxa stick fixing member 3 fixes the moxa stick in the internal space formed by the outer tube 2 and the base 1. The moxa stick fixing member 3 is clamped with the outer tube 2, which is convenient for disassembling the moxa stick fixing member 3 and replacing the moxa stick. At the same time, the two ends of the acupuncture needle positioning member 4 are clamped with the inner wall of the base, and the needle hole 41 for the straight puncture acupuncture needle to pass through the needle hole 41 is convenient for the straight puncture acupuncture needle to pass through and connect with the moxa stick. The straight puncture needle heats the acupuncture needle while performing acupuncture on the patient. The acupuncture needle positioning member 4 is convenient for quickly and accurately connecting the straight puncture needle to the moxa stick, and is firmly fixed and not easy to fall off.

[0037] In actual use, a perforation can be reserved in the center of the moxa stick in advance, the moxa stick positioning member and the moxa stick fixing member 3 fix the moxa stick in the center of the outer tube 2, and the acupuncture needle positioning member 4 also fixes the acupuncture needle in the center of the outer tube 2. After the acupuncture needle is inserted into the needle hole 41, it can be accurately inserted into the center of the moxa stick.

[0038] In a preferred implementation manner of this embodiment, the opening 111 is located in the axial direction of the base platform 11 and has a certain width to accommodate the passage of a flat needle.

[0039] Specifically, Figure 2As shown, the opening 111 disconnects the annular base platform 11. When the base platform 11 is placed on the skin, the middle and tail of the flat needle just pass through the opening 111, and the position of piercing the skin is located directly below the center of the moxibustion tool, that is, directly below the center of the moxa stick. The width of the opening should not be too wide to affect the stability of the base, nor too narrow to affect the alignment of the flat needle. It should just be enough to accommodate the flat needle and be wider than the needle.

[0040] In a preferred implementation manner of this embodiment, the pinhole 41 gradually becomes larger in a radial direction closer to the base 1 relative to the pinhole near the bottom portion of the base 1 .

[0041] Specifically, Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the needle hole section relatively close to the bottom part of the base 1 is in a trumpet shape, which facilitates the acupuncture needle to quickly enter the needle hole and enter a deeper needle hole with a smaller inner diameter under the limiting effect of the trumpet shape, making the needle insertion more convenient, fast and accurate.

[0042] In a preferred implementation manner of this embodiment, the inner side wall of the base 1 is provided with grooves 14 which are engaged with both ends of the acupuncture needle positioning member 4 .

[0043] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, there are two grooves 14, and both ends of the acupuncture needle positioning member 4 extend into the grooves 14 and can slide up and down along the grooves 14. When installing the acupuncture needle positioning member 4, adjust it to a suitable height according to the length of the acupuncture needle and the length of the moxa stick.

[0044] The warm acupuncture tool provided in the first embodiment can be used for flat needles as well as straight needles, and the straight needles are fixed and sleeved by the acupuncture needle positioning member 4, the sleeves are quickly fixed and firmly fixed, and the distance between the needle and the moxa stick can be adjusted, which is convenient and practical.

[0045] Embodiment 2

[0046] In this embodiment, based on the first embodiment, the outer wall of the base 1 is provided with a plurality of spiral grooves 13, and the grooves 13 are evenly distributed with a plurality of positioning grooves 131; the inner wall of the outer tube 2 is provided with a slider 23 matched with the grooves 13, and the slider 23 is provided with a limit block 23 matched with the positioning grooves 131.

[0047] Specifically, the outer tube 2 and the base 1 can rotate relative to each other. During the rotation, the slider 23 slides along the spiral groove 13, so that the relative position of the outer tube 2 and the base 1 changes, thereby increasing or decreasing the distance between the moxa stick and the base. Furthermore, the limit block 23 is sequentially matched with different positioning grooves 131 located in a groove 13 to achieve the positioning adjustment of the distance between the moxa stick and the base, and the height of the moxa stick from the skin is adjusted by the spiral track method to achieve the effect of temperature control.

[0048] In a preferred embodiment of Example 21, as Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the locking groove 131 is a concave hemispherical shape, and the limiting block 23 is a convex hemispherical shape, so that the sliding and locking connection between the limiting block 23 and the groove 13 is smoother.

[0049] Specifically, the number of the grooves 13 is two, and the number of the sliders 23 is also two. The sliders 23 are wedge-shaped.

[0050] Embodiment 2 provides a method for adjusting the distance between the moxa stick and the base by rotation, thereby adjusting the temperature of moxibustion.

[0051] Embodiment 3

[0052] In this embodiment, a dust-proof and heat-insulating net 5 is provided inside the base 1; after the two free ends of the acupuncture needle positioning piece 4 are clamped with the groove 14, they first extend toward the top of the base 1 and then extend toward the center of the base 1, and a positioning block 42 is formed at the extension. The edge of the dust-proof and heat-insulating net 5 is clamped between the positioning block 42 and the body of the acupuncture needle positioning piece 4.

[0053] Specifically, Figure 6 The diameter of the end of the positioning block 42 relatively close to the groove 14 is the same as the diameter of the body of the acupuncture needle positioning member 4, and the diameter of the end of the positioning block 42 relatively far from the groove 14 is larger than the diameter of the body of the acupuncture needle positioning member 4. On the one hand, the clamping and fixing with the dustproof heat insulation net 5 is more secure. On the other hand, the clamping of the acupuncture needle positioning member 4 and the base 1 is more secure. At the same time, the dustproof heat insulation net 5 ensures the safety of the moxibustion device during use, without leaking open flames or dropping ash residue, to prevent scalding patients.

[0054] At the same time, the provision of the dust-proof heat-insulating net 5 enables the moxa stick to be located in the internal space formed by the moxa stick fixing member, the outer cylinder, and the dust-proof heat-insulating net, isolating the temperature while avoiding burns.

[0055] The dust-proof heat-insulating net 5 is clamped with the moxa stick fixing part 3 and the acupuncture needle positioning part 4. On the one hand, the number of parts is saved, so that the height of the dust-proof heat-insulating net 5 can be adjusted. On the other hand, the dust-proof heat-insulating net 5 can be removed together when the moxa stick fixing part 3 is disassembled, which is convenient for cleaning, safe and reliable.

[0056] Embodiment 4

[0057] In this embodiment, a plurality of claws 31 are provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the moxa stick fixing member 3 , and each of the claws 31 extends toward the center of the moxa stick fixing member 3 .

[0058] Specifically, the claw 31 is used to extend into the moxa stick to fix the moxa stick firmly, further ensuring the stability of the moxa stick. The claw 31 is a stamped metal part, and the moxa stick is fixed on the moxibustion tool through the stamped metal part, which is convenient for replacement and not easy to fall off.

[0059] Preferably, Figure 5 As shown, the number of the clamping claws 31 is 3, which is relatively small but the moxa stick is fixed very firmly.

[0060] In a preferred implementation manner of Example 4, the inner edge of the top of the outer tube 2 is recessed downward to form a platform portion 21, and the top surface of the platform portion 21 is connected to the bottom surface of the top edge of the moxa stick fixing member 3.

[0061] Here, if Figure 5 and Figure 7 It can be understood that the top edge of the moxa stick fixing member 3 extends outwards to facilitate the engagement with the platform portion 21 , thereby facilitating the removal of the moxa stick fixing member 3 and the replacement of the moxa stick.

[0062] In a preferred implementation manner of Example 4, the outer wall of the moxa stick fixing member 3 is provided with a circle of clamping grooves 32 recessed inwardly, and the outer tube 2 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 22 at positions corresponding to the clamping grooves 32.

[0063] Specifically, the protrusion 22 and the engaging groove 32 are engaged with each other, thereby ensuring that the connection between the moxa stick fixing member 3 and the outer tube 2 is more stable.

[0064] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 7 As shown, the number of the protrusions 22 is three.

[0065] The fourth embodiment mainly provides a moxa stick fixing seat to fix the moxa stick more firmly and stably.

[0066] Embodiment 5

[0067] In this embodiment, the base 1 body and the base platform 11 are connected via a plurality of connection parts 12 that are separated from each other.

[0068] Specifically, Figure 3-4 As shown, the separated connecting parts 12 allow the base platform 11 to have a certain distance from the base body, and also allow a hollow design between the base 1 and the base platform, which improves ventilation and has a beautiful appearance.

[0069] At the same time, the separated connection part makes the base 1 and the base platform have a hollow design, which is convenient for using a medical adhesive tape to pass through the hollow part to fix the base platform on the skin, freeing the hands of the moxibustion practitioner, who can move freely during the moxibustion treatment without restriction. The medical adhesive tape can be used once it is torn off and is firmly attached.

[0070] In any embodiment of the present application, a plurality of air holes 24 are provided on the side wall of the outer tube 2 .

[0071] Specifically, Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the air holes 24 are used for air circulation. The air holes 24 are strip-shaped and inclined at a certain angle, so that the ventilation effect is better and the air holes 24 are also conducive to the diffusion of smoke.

[0072] In any embodiment of the present application, the base 1 and the outer tube 2 are made of PC plastic material.

[0073] Specifically, the base 1 and the outer tube 2 made of the material are in direct contact with the human body, are resistant to high temperatures, have a strong structure, and prevent burns.
