Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical devices, and in particular to a headband-type transdermal acupoint therapy device. Background Technology

[0002] Insomnia, dizziness, tinnitus, fatigue, and memory loss are common ailments plaguing modern people. Modern medicine believes these clinical manifestations are related to brain dysfunction, often caused by high stress levels, demanding work schedules, and strained interpersonal relationships. Without intervention, these symptoms can significantly impact daily life, work, and studies, and may even lead to mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction, as well as cardiovascular and digestive system diseases. Drug treatment, however, carries risks such as drug dependence and drug-induced damage.

[0003] Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "the brain is the sea of ​​marrow, and its upper part is the top of the head... If the sea of ​​marrow is insufficient, there will be dizziness, tinnitus, leg weakness, blurred vision, lethargy, and a desire to lie down." (Ling Shu, Chapter 10, "On the Sea of ​​Marrow"). Insufficient marrow can cause the above symptoms, and intervention to regulate the "brain" is necessary. Baihui (GV20) and Sishencong (EX-HN5) are acupoints on the top of the head (the "top of the head") that represent the "brain." Clinically, acupuncture and moxibustion at Baihui and Sishencong have been found to significantly improve these symptoms. However, this therapy has the following problems: 1. Some patients are afraid of acupuncture and refuse treatment; 2. Patients need to go to a medical facility for treatment, which often takes 40-50 minutes, and working people often cannot adhere to the treatment due to work commitments; 3. Conventional transcutaneous electrical stimulation uses electrode patches, but the hair on the top of the head affects conductivity, making it impossible to operate on the head unless the hair is shaved. Therefore, designing a headband-style transcutaneous scalp acupoint therapy device that is easy for patients to operate themselves has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a headband-type transdermal scalp acupoint therapy device.

[0005] The technical solution of this invention: A headband-type transcutaneous scalp acupoint therapy device, comprising a front pad and a rear pad, with two symmetrically arranged side pads between the front and rear pads. Elastic connecting bands are provided on all three pads. Connecting grooves are provided at the top of the front, rear, and two side pads. An arc-shaped first guide rail is provided on the connecting grooves of the front and rear pads, with the end of the first guide rail rotatably connected to the corresponding connecting groove. Arc-shaped second guide rails are provided on the connecting grooves of the two side pads, with the end of the second guide rail rotatably connected to the corresponding connecting groove. The radius of the first guide rail is larger than the radius of the second guide rail, and the first and second guide rails... The spheres formed by the rotation of the first guide rail and the second guide rail are concentric, and the rotational connection points at the ends of the first and second guide rails are on the same horizontal plane as their centers. Both the first and second guide rails have external teeth in their middle sections, and a movable block is provided in the middle of both sections. The movable block has an upper guide opening that matches the first guide rail and a lower guide opening that matches the second guide rail. A worm gear is rotatably connected to the movable block on one side of both the upper and lower guide openings. A worm wheel is provided on one side of the worm gear, meshing with the worm gear and rotatably connected to the interior of the movable block. The worm wheel meshes with the corresponding external teeth. An electrical stimulation and moxibustion mechanism is provided at the bottom of the movable block.

[0006] In the aforementioned headband-type percutaneous scalp acupoint therapy device, the rear pad has a through hole that runs horizontally through it. The middle of the through hole has a locking hole that is perpendicular to and connected to it. A slidingly connected pressure block is provided in the locking hole. A locking spring is provided between the inner end of the pressure block and the inner end of the locking hole. The middle of the pressure block has a movable hole that fits with the through hole. The size of the movable hole and the through hole is the same as that of the elastic connecting strip. One end of the elastic connecting strip is fixedly connected to the rear pad, and the middle part is fixedly connected to the side pad on one side, the front pad, and the side pad on the other side in sequence.

[0007] In the aforementioned headband-type percutaneous scalp acupoint therapy device, the end of the elastic connecting band is provided with a perforation block of the same size as the perforation and movable hole.

[0008] In the aforementioned headband-type transdermal acupoint therapy device, the first guide rail and the second guide rail include elastic parts on both sides connected to the connecting groove, and a rigid part is provided between the elastic parts, with the external teeth located on the rigid part.

[0009] In the aforementioned headband-type transcutaneous scalp acupoint therapy device, the electrical stimulation and moxibustion mechanism includes a vertically moving hole on the bottom surface of the movable block, an annular reset groove in the middle of the moving hole, a threaded adjustment hole perpendicular to and connected to the top of the moving hole, an adjusting screw with threaded engagement in the threaded adjustment hole, and a spherical working surface at the end of the adjusting screw; a slidingly connected movable rod is provided in the moving hole, multiple evenly distributed electrical probes are provided on the lower side of the movable rod, the ends of the electrical probes are provided with spherical contacts, the upper end of the movable rod has a force-bearing inclined surface, an annular reset plate located in the reset groove is provided in the middle of the movable rod, and a reset spring is provided between the reset plate and the lower end of the reset groove; a slot is provided on the bottom surface of the movable rod, a heater is provided inside the slot, and an moxa wool sheet adapted to the slot is provided on the outside of the heater.

[0010] In the aforementioned headband-type transcutaneous scalp acupoint therapy device, both the electrical stimulation and the heater are designed with control circuits and closed-loop feedback, allowing the electrical stimulation parameters and heater temperature parameters to be set via the therapy device.

[0011] In the aforementioned headband-type transdermal acupoint therapy device, the outer teeth of the first guide rail are located on its upper surface, and the outer teeth of the second guide rail are located on its lower surface.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. The front pad, rear pad, and two side pads of this invention are all provided with connecting grooves at their tops. The connecting grooves of the side pads, front pad, and rear pad are all provided with an arc-shaped first guide rail, the end of which is rotatably connected to the corresponding connecting groove. The connecting grooves of the two side pads are all provided with an arc-shaped second guide rail, the end of which is rotatably connected to the corresponding connecting groove. The radius of the first guide rail is larger than the radius of the second guide rail, and the first and second guide rails are perpendicular to each other. The middle of both the first and second guide rails is provided with external teeth, and the middle of both the first and second guide rails is provided with a movable block. The movable block is provided with an upper guide opening that matches the first guide rail and a lower guide opening that matches the second guide rail. A rotatably connected worm gear is provided inside the movable block on one side of the upper and lower guide openings. A worm wheel is provided on one side of the worm gear, meshing with it and rotatably connected to the inside of the movable block. The worm wheel meshes with the corresponding external teeth. The bottom of the movable block is provided with an electrical stimulation and moxibustion mechanism. The front pad and rear pad... The front pad is placed on the front and back sides of the patient's head, and the side pad is placed on the side of the patient's head that is active. The patient's head is clamped and fixed by the elasticity of the elastic connecting band. After fixation, the worm gear on one side of the upper guide port is rotated. The worm gear drives the worm wheel to rotate, and the movable block can move on the first guide rail through the external teeth. During the movement, since the center of the sphere formed by the rotation of the first guide rail is concentric with the center of the sphere formed by the rotation of the second guide rail, and the rotation connection point at the end of the first and second guide rails is on the same horizontal plane with their centers, the movable block can be pulled by the lower guide port to move together with the second guide rail. The same applies when the worm gear on the other side is turned. The movable block can be flexibly adjusted in two directions at any position. The self-locking between the worm wheel and the worm gear can fix the movable block on the first and second guide rails, and further fix the rotation angle of the first and second guide rails. This makes it easy for the patient to quickly and accurately adjust the electrical stimulation and moxibustion mechanism to the corresponding position on the head, which has the feature of precise positioning.

[0014] 2. The rear pad of this invention has a through hole that runs horizontally through it. A locking hole, perpendicular to and connected to the through hole, is located in the middle of the through hole. A slidingly connected pressure block is located inside the locking hole. A locking spring is located between the inner end of the pressure block and the inner end of the locking hole. A movable hole, matching the through hole, is located in the middle of the pressure block. The dimensions of the movable hole and the through hole are the same as those of the elastic connecting band. One end of the elastic connecting band is fixedly connected to the rear pad, and the middle part is sequentially fixedly connected to a side pad, a front pad, and a side pad on the other side. After the front, side, and rear pads surround the patient's head, the elastic connecting band is pulled back to the rear pad. The pressure block is pressed down, and after the pressure block is pressed inward, the movable hole and the through hole align to form a channel. The end of the elastic connecting band is inserted into this channel and pulled out from the other side. Then, the pressure block is released and the locking band is engaged. The spring force causes the movable hole and the perforation to misalign, creating a clamping effect on the elastic connecting band at the junction, thus fixing the elastic clamping band. The tightness of the headband can be adjusted within a small range by tightening the elastic connecting band, making it convenient to use. The first and second guide rails include elastic parts connected to the connecting groove on both sides, with a rigid part between the elastic parts. The external teeth are located on the rigid part. When the patient's head size is small and a longer elastic connecting band needs to be pulled out for fixation, the distance between the front pad and the rear pad, as well as the distance between the side pads, will change. At this time, the elastic parts of the first and second guide rails deform to adapt to this distance change, while the rigid part does not deform to ensure the normal adjustment of the movable block, resulting in excellent reliability.

[0015] 3. The electrostimulation and moxibustion mechanism of this invention includes a vertically moving hole disposed on the bottom surface of a movable block. An annular reset groove is provided in the middle of the moving hole. A threaded adjustment hole is provided perpendicularly to and connected to the top of the moving hole. An adjusting screw with a threaded fit is provided inside the threaded adjustment hole, and the end of the adjusting screw has a spherical working surface. A slidingly connected movable rod is provided inside the moving hole. Multiple evenly distributed electrostimulated probes are provided on the lower side of the movable rod. The ends of the electrostimulated probes have spherical contacts. The upper end of the movable rod has a force-bearing inclined surface. An annular reset plate located in the reset groove is provided in the middle of the movable rod. The reset plate and the lower part of the reset groove... A return spring is provided between the ends; a slot is provided on the bottom surface of the movable rod, a heater is provided inside the slot, and a moxa wool sheet adapted to the slot is provided on the outside of the heater; turning the adjusting screw causes it to move inward, and the action surface contacts the force-bearing inclined surface to compress it, thereby pushing the movable rod to move downward in the moving hole, so that the ball contact of the power probe contacts the patient's head, ensuring a close fit to the top of the head of patients with different head shapes, and good reliability. After turning out the adjusting screw, the compressed return spring returns to its deformation and the power probe will bounce back up; the moxa wool sheet is inserted into the slot, and moxibustion is achieved by heating the moxa wool sheet to achieve moxibustion, which is convenient to use.

Figure 2 As shown, the movable block 9 has an upper guide opening 10 that matches the first guide rail 6 and a lower guide opening 11 that matches the second guide rail 7. Both the upper guide opening 10 and the lower guide opening 11 have a rotatably connected worm gear 12 inside the movable block 9. A worm wheel 13 meshes with the worm gear 12 and is rotatably connected to the interior of the movable block 9. The worm wheel 13 meshes with the corresponding external teeth 8. The spiral angle of the worm gear 12 is smaller than the friction angle of the worm wheel 13 contacting the worm gear 12. The bottom of the movable block 9 has an electrical stimulation and moxibustion mechanism 14. (See attached diagram) Figure 3 As shown, the rear pad 2 has a through hole 15 extending horizontally through it.

The outer teeth 8 of the first guide rail 6 are located on its upper surface, and the outer teeth 8 of the second guide rail 7 are located on its lower surface. The outer ends of the worm gear 12 and the adjusting screw 26 are both provided with rotating handles.

[0030] Working principle: as shown in the appendix Figure 5As shown, this invention is similar to traditional head acupoint stimulation methods, mainly used to stimulate the Houshencong, Sishencong, Qianshencong, and Baihui acupoints on the head. However, current acupoint stimulation methods mainly involve manual needle insertion by medical staff or stimulation with electrode patches. Therefore, this invention ① uses a blunt probe for conductivity, which can be directly applied to the scalp to ensure its conductivity; conventional transcutaneous electrical stimulation devices only provide electrical stimulation; ② adds moxibustion function on the basis of electrical stimulation; ③ this invention can be manually and quickly adjusted to the relevant acupoints (Baihui and Sishencong) according to each patient's head shape, with precise positioning and simple operation, making it suitable for home use. The specific operating procedure of this invention is as follows: The front pad and the rear pad are placed on the front and back sides of the patient's head, and the side pad is placed on the active side of the patient's head. The patient's head is clamped and fixed by the elastic force of the elastic connecting band. After the fixation is completed, the worm gear on one side of the upper guide port is rotated. The worm gear drives the worm wheel to rotate. The movable block can move on the first guide rail through the external teeth. During the movement, since the center of the sphere formed by the rotation of the first guide rail is concentric with the center of the sphere formed by the rotation of the second guide rail, and the rotation connection point at the end of the first guide rail and the second guide rail is on the same horizontal plane with its center, the movable block can be pulled by the lower guide port to move together with the second guide rail. The same applies when the worm gear on the other side is turned. The movable block can be flexibly adjusted in two directions at any position. The self-locking between the worm wheel and the worm gear can fix the movable block on the first guide rail and the second guide rail, and further fix the rotation angle of the first guide rail and the second guide rail. This makes it easy for the patient to quickly and accurately adjust the electrical stimulation and moxibustion mechanism to the corresponding position on the head, which has the feature of precise positioning. After the device is secured, the patient can set the electrical stimulation parameters and moxibustion heating temperature and time via the device, or make settings via wireless connection to other smart devices, such as... Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the circuit for electrical stimulation consists of a microcontroller and peripheral circuit modules. A digital-to-analog chip converts the digital signal output by the microcontroller into an analog signal, which is then further amplified by the peripheral circuitry and output as electrical stimulation to the human skin. Simultaneously, this invention incorporates an amplitude-frequency adjuster, allowing patients to actively adjust the amplitude and frequency of the electrical stimulation, thus promoting personalized electrical stimulation treatment design. The moxibustion heating module of this device utilizes a closed-loop design of the temperature controller and heating device, such as... Figure 9 As shown, the temperature sensor and subtractor work together to prevent the temperature from fluctuating during the heating process. Closed-loop control helps the device quickly reach the set temperature. The corresponding simulation diagram for moxibustion heating control is shown below. Figure 10 As shown, after the temperature controller inputs control to the heater, it outputs temperature parameters; the feedback loop temperature sensor is used to calibrate the temperature value of the heating area. This is achieved through PID simulation modeling, as shown below. Figure 11As shown, the device can reach the set temperature in a short time, realizing an integrated design of moxibustion heating and electrical stimulation. Through amplitude and frequency control and temperature feedback modules, users can independently adjust parameters such as the electrical stimulation process and heating temperature. The microcontroller can use a variety of control chips, which are low-cost and easy to build. Combined with analog-digital chips and peripheral circuits, digital signals are converted into analog signals and applied to the electrical stimulation device or the moxibustion heating device. Combined with the microcontroller and peripheral circuits, analog quantities can be accurately applied. Compared with the traditional manual stimulation and moxibustion heating process, this device realizes controllable electrical stimulation and electronic moxibustion heating. The closed-loop feedback loop design enhances the reliability of the system. Users can realize personalized diagnosis and treatment through the closed-loop system and explore appropriate electrical stimulation and moxibustion heating parameters in conjunction with physician advice. Through the simulation circuit control module, an electronic and controllable electrical stimulation and moxibustion heating module is realized. This is a further treatment method based on traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment, combining automated control and Chinese medicine equipment, which is beneficial to realizing the digitization and electronification of Chinese medicine data.
