Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of medical equipment, and in particular to an electronic moxibustion apparatus with intelligent temperature control and a method of using the apparatus. Background Art
[0002] Moxibustion, also known as moxibustion therapy or moxibustion method, is a treatment method that uses moxa sticks or 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. Traditional moxibustion generally requires a physician to operate, and the treatment effect depends more on the physician's personal experience, and it is impossible to control temperature and time. With the development of electronic technology, traditional moxibustion treatment technology has been combined with modern technology to develop electronic moxibustion, which can realize intelligent operation and temperature and time control functions, greatly improving the functional efficacy of moxibustion.
[0003] After searching, it was found that the Chinese invention patent with application number CN202011476221.8 discloses a moxibustion instrument control method, device, moxibustion instrument and computer-readable storage medium, which can adjust the moxibustion temperature when the moxa stick moves according to the target moxibustion mode, so that the moxibustion temperature reaches the target moxibustion temperature, thereby realizing the automatic control of the moxibustion temperature in moxibustion therapy. Another example is the Chinese invention patent with application number CN202410271704.6, which discloses an automatic temperature control system and method for a moxibustion box, which extracts features of the user's skin temperature values at multiple predetermined time points to understand the temperature changes of the user's skin, and adjusts the power of the heater in the moxibustion box according to the changes in the user's skin temperature, thereby achieving more accurate and effective temperature control. For example, the Chinese invention patent with application number CN201810248988.1 discloses an automatic temperature control method for a moxibustion device. By setting a temperature detection device on the outer shell, the temperature sensing probe of the temperature detection device can monitor the temperature inside the outer shell in real time, so that medical staff can accurately grasp the temperature conditions of the patient's skin surface. Medical staff can adjust the position of the moxa stick in time according to the temperature displayed by the temperature detection device to meet the temperature requirements of different patients or different moxibustion parts, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the moxibustion device with temperature prompt function.
[0004] However, the above patent relies on the personal experience of the moxibustion physician when setting the moxibustion temperature of the target acupoints, and does not take into account the different thermal sensitivities of different moxibustion patients. It is unable to intelligently adjust the moxibustion temperature of different target acupoints according to the thermal sensitivity of different patients, and its intelligence level needs to be further improved.

[0034] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail by referring to the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0035] It should be noted that the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions; in the description of the present application, the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application; in the description of the present application, "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish each other, rather than to indicate their importance and order, etc.
[0036] First of all, it should be noted that due to individual differences, the thermal sensitivity of different people's skin varies from person to person, which is related to many factors. On the one hand, the skin's sensitivity to heat may be affected by genetic factors. Human genetic genes determine the structure and distribution of skin cells, as well as the structure and density of the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissue, all of which may affect the skin's sensitivity to heat. On the other hand, the skin's sensitivity to heat may also be affected by environmental factors. For example, people who are often exposed to high temperature environments may become less sensitive to heat due to the enhanced adaptability of their skin; while people who are in low temperature environments for a long time may become more sensitive to heat due to the weakened adaptability of their skin.
[0037] In addition, the skin's sensitivity to heat may also be affected by many factors, such as the skin's physiological state, health status, age, gender, body fat percentage, etc. For example, dry skin, aging, allergies, etc. may make the skin more sensitive; while young people may be relatively more susceptible to heat stimulation because their skin tissue is relatively thin.
[0038] In short, the skin's sensitivity to heat is a multi-factorial process, and different people's physique, environment, and physiological conditions may lead to individual differences.
[0039] The existing electronic moxibustion apparatus with intelligent temperature control function often relies on the personal experience of the moxibustion physician when setting the moxibustion temperature of the target acupoints, and does not take into account the different thermal sensitivities of different moxibustion patients. It is unable to intelligently adjust the moxibustion temperature of different target acupoints according to the thermal sensitivity of different patients, and its intelligence level needs to be further improved. In order to solve the problem that the existing electronic moxibustion apparatus cannot intelligently adjust the moxibustion temperature of different target acupoints according to the thermal sensitivity of different patients, and its intelligence level needs to be further improved, the first embodiment of the present application provides an electronic moxibustion apparatus with intelligent temperature control.
[0040] The electronic moxibustion instrument with intelligent temperature control includes a fixing module for fixing the moxa stick, a control module for controlling the movement of the moxa stick, and a temperature collection module for collecting the real-time moxibustion temperature of the moxibustion acupoints.
[0041] Here, it should be noted that the moxa stick can also be replaced by moxa sticks, moxa cakes or other shapes of wormwood materials. The control module can move the moxa stick by driving the fixed module to move, or directly drive the moxa stick to move through middleware such as a clamp. The temperature acquisition module is connected to the control module signal. In addition, the electronic moxibustion instrument also includes a heating module for heating the moxa stick. The heating module receives a heating signal from the control module, heats the moxa stick to a preset temperature, and carbonizes or ignites the moxa stick. Since controlling the movement of the moxa stick, heating the moxa stick, etc. are conventional technical means, they will not be repeated here.
[0042] The control module is also used to obtain a preset moxibustion temperature, and control the movement of the moxa stick according to the preset moxibustion temperature to adjust the distance between the ignition end of the moxa stick and the moxibustion acupoint until the real-time moxibustion temperature is within a preset moxibustion temperature range, and the preset moxibustion temperature range is expressed as
[0043] in, PreT j represents the preset moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point, StdT j represents the standard moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point, F tempi represents the moxibustion temperature adjustment function of the i-th factor affecting the thermal sensitivity of the human body corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint, T min represents the minimum moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point, T max represents the highest moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point, n represents the number of factors that affect the thermal sensitivity of the human body, and λ i represents the temperature regulation coefficient associated with the moxibustion temperature regulation function of the i-th factor affecting the thermal sensitivity of the human body corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint, and TH represents the moxibustion temperature amplitude ratio value.
[0044] The standard moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point can be obtained based on big data technology. The specific steps are: obtain the first optimal moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point of multiple moxibustion patients, and use the average value of the first optimal moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point of multiple moxibustion patients as the standard moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point. Based on big data technology, the average value of the first optimal moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point of multiple moxibustion patients is used as the standard moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point. On the one hand, a standard moxibustion temperature can be preliminarily set, which is convenient for setting the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature for different moxibustion patients. On the other hand, different preset moxibustion temperatures can also be set for different moxibustion points. In other words, different preset moxibustion temperatures can be set for different moxibustion points of different moxibustion patients, which is more targeted and improves the accuracy of the preset moxibustion temperature of the moxibustion points of the electronic moxibustion instrument.
[0045] F tempi A moxibustion temperature regulation function representing the i-th factor affecting human thermal sensitivity corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint, wherein the determination method comprises the following steps: first, for the j-th moxibustion acupoint, other factors affecting human thermal sensitivity are proposed as invariants, and the i-th factor affecting human thermal sensitivity corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint is used as a variable; then, the i-th factor affecting human thermal sensitivity corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint of multiple different moxibustion patients, and the temperature difference between the first optimal moxibustion temperature of the j-th moxibustion acupoint of the moxibustion patient and the standard moxibustion temperature of the j-th moxibustion acupoint are obtained, the i-th factor affecting human thermal sensitivity corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint of the moxibustion patient and the temperature difference are used as scattered point data and a curve is fitted, and the obtained fitting curve function is the moxibustion temperature regulation function of the i-th factor affecting human thermal sensitivity corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint.
[0046] Temperature regulation coefficient λ i The purpose of setting is to consider different moxibustion patients in a targeted manner. There are many factors that affect the thermal sensitivity of different moxibustion patients, including age, gender, body fat percentage, physiological state, etc., as well as health conditions. Diseases such as hyperthyroidism and diabetes can also affect the body's sensitivity to temperature. For example, for different moxibustion patients, if they are in good health and do not suffer from hyperthyroidism or diabetes, the corresponding temperature adjustment coefficient λ can be i Set to 0. For moxibustion patients with diseases such as hyperthyroidism or diabetes, the corresponding temperature adjustment coefficient λ can be appropriately adjusted according to the severity of the disease. i In this way, by adding the temperature adjustment coefficient λ i , the different thermal sensitivity factors of different moxibustion patients can be taken into consideration in a targeted manner, so that the preset moxibustion temperature of the j-th moxibustion point obtained at the end is more targeted, and the accuracy and intelligence of the preset moxibustion temperature of the moxibustion point of the electronic moxibustion instrument are further improved.
[0047] Exemplarily, the standard moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point can be set to 45°C. Due to individual differences, the thermal sensitivity of the skin of different moxibustion patients is different, and the warm feeling at the same moxibustion temperature is also different, that is, the preset moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point may not be 45°C, it may be 43°C, 47°C or other temperatures. TH represents the moxibustion temperature amplitude ratio value, generally, it can be 1%, 2% or 5%, and the specific value can be fine-tuned according to the actual situation. Because the ambient temperature is in a fluctuating state, the temperature of the ignition end of the moxa stick is not constant. Even if the distance between the ignition end of the moxa stick and the moxibustion point remains unchanged, the real-time moxibustion temperature of the moxibustion point will fluctuate. Through the moxibustion temperature amplitude ratio value, the real-time moxibustion temperature is within the preset moxibustion temperature range, which can improve the flexibility of the electronic moxibustion instrument, and also make the moxa stick more stable, and will not frequently fine-tune the distance between the ignition end of the moxa stick and the moxibustion point due to slight fluctuations in the real-time moxibustion temperature of the moxibustion point. Therefore, by setting the moxibustion temperature amplitude ratio value, the stability of the moxa stick movement and the accuracy of the preset moxibustion temperature of the moxibustion point can be balanced.
[0048] As a preferred technical solution, the factors affecting human thermal sensitivity include but are not limited to gender, age and body fat percentage, and the body fat percentage BFR=1.2*BMI+0.23*Age-5.4-10.8*Gender; wherein Age represents age, Gender represents gender, male is 1, female is 0, and BMI represents body mass index, which is obtained by dividing weight (kg) by height (m) squared.
[0049] The lowest moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point and the highest moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point are both adjustable preset values. Generally speaking, the moxibustion temperature is between 40°C and 60°C. Therefore, the lowest moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point can be set to 40°C, and the highest moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point can be set to 60°C. Of course, the lowest moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point and the highest moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point can be adjusted according to different actual conditions.
[0050] By formula The preset moxibustion temperature of the j-th moxibustion point obtained can be understood as the optimal moxibustion temperature of the j-th moxibustion point of a certain moxibustion patient.
[0051] To sum up, through the electronic moxibustion instrument with intelligent temperature control, the factors affecting the thermal sensitivity of the human body are taken into account, and different temperature adjustment coefficients are set for the moxibustion temperature adjustment functions of different factors affecting the thermal sensitivity of the human body. The standard moxibustion temperature is adjusted using the moxibustion temperature adjustment function of the moxibustion points. The different thermal sensitivities of different moxibustion patients are fully taken into account. The moxibustion temperature of different target acupoints can be intelligently set according to the thermal sensitivity of different patients, thereby improving the intelligence level of the electronic moxibustion instrument and improving the moxibustion effect.
[0052] In addition, by adding the temperature adjustment factor λ i , taking into account the different thermal sensitivity factors of different moxibustion patients, the preset moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point obtained at the end is more targeted, further improving the accuracy and intelligence of the preset moxibustion temperature of the moxibustion point of the electronic moxibustion instrument.
[0053] In some cases, moxibustion on multiple acupoints at the same time can enhance the therapeutic effect. In existing electronic moxibustion instruments, only one acupoint can be moxibustioned using the moxibustion ignition end, and multiple acupoints cannot be moxibustioned at the same time. In addition, according to the formula It can be seen that due to the different standard moxibustion temperatures of each moxibustion point, even for the same moxibustion patient, the optimal moxibustion temperature (i.e., preset moxibustion temperature) of different moxibustion points will be different. The existing electronic moxibustion instrument is not only unable to perform moxibustion treatment on multiple moxibustion points at the same time, but also unable to adjust the position of the ignited end of the moxa stick according to the different preset moxibustion temperatures of several adjacent moxibustion points, so that several adjacent moxibustion points are at a suitable or even optimal moxibustion temperature, thereby improving the moxibustion efficacy while improving the utilization efficiency of the moxibustion stick.
[0054] In order to solve the above problem, as a preferred technical solution, the control module is also used to determine whether there are other moxibustion points within the preset radius of the jth moxibustion point. If so, in response to the multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction, the moxa stick is controlled to move so that the real-time moxibustion temperature of all moxibustion points within the preset radius of the jth moxibustion point is within the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature range.
[0055] Here, the multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction can be input externally, such as setting a multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction input button on the housing of the electronic moxibustion instrument, and the control module obtains the multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction input by the user through the input moxibustion. Of course, the control module can also establish a communication connection with a mobile smart terminal such as a mobile phone, a smart bracelet, etc. The control module obtains the multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction input by the user through the mobile smart terminal, and responds to the multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction to control the movement of the moxa stick. The preset radius range can be preset in the control module.
[0056] By setting the preset moxibustion temperature range In response to a multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction, the movement of the moxa stick is controlled so that the real-time moxibustion temperatures of all moxibustion points within a preset radius of the jth moxibustion point are within the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature range. Compared with the existing electronic moxibustion instrument, the electronic moxibustion instrument with intelligent temperature control described in the present application can not only perform moxibustion treatment on multiple moxibustion points at the same time, but also adjust the position of the ignition end of the moxa stick according to the different preset moxibustion temperatures of several adjacent moxibustion points, so that several adjacent moxibustion points are within the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature range. Moxibustion treatment is performed on multiple moxibustion points at the same time using one moxa stick, which improves the utilization efficiency of the moxibustion stick and enhances the moxibustion efficacy.
[0057] In a possible implementation, the control module controls the real-time moving speed V of the ignited end of the moxa stick close to the jth moxibustion acupoint. j =ε*V std / (T max -PreT j +1);
[0058] Among them, V std represents the reference moving speed, and ε represents the speed adjustment coefficient, which is a constant and can be fine-tuned according to actual needs.
[0059] By formula The calculated preset moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point specifically considers the different thermal sensitivity factors of different moxibustion patients, and intelligently sets the moxibustion temperature of different target acupoints according to the thermal sensitivity of different patients. Therefore, the preset moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point can characterize the thermal sensitivity of the jth moxibustion point of the moxibustion patient to a certain extent. j The higher the value, the lower the thermal sensitivity. j The lower the value of, the higher the thermal sensitivity. max -PreT j +1 can represent the thermal sensitivity of the j-th moxibustion point. The higher the value, the higher the thermal sensitivity. Conversely, the lower the value, the lower the thermal sensitivity.
[0060] Real-time moving speed V j =ε*V std / (T max -PreT j+1) By combining the reference moving speed with the thermal sensitivity of the moxibustion acupoints, and adjusting the real-time moving speed according to the thermal sensitivity of the moxibustion acupoints, the higher the thermal sensitivity, the lower the real-time moving speed, and the lower the thermal sensitivity, the higher the real-time moving speed. In this way, the real-time moving speed of the ignited end of the moxa stick approaching the jth moxibustion acupoint is automatically adjusted according to the thermal sensitivity of the moxibustion patient, and the moving speed of the moxa stick is combined with the thermal sensitivity of the moxibustion acupoints of the moxibustion patient, so as to improve the automation and intelligence of the electronic moxibustion instrument, and also further improve its practicality.
[0061] The second embodiment of the present application provides a method for using an electronic moxibustion apparatus with intelligent temperature control, which comprises the following steps:
[0062] S1, collecting the real-time moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion acupoint. The real-time moxibustion temperature can be collected by a temperature collection module such as an infrared temperature collector.
[0063] S2, obtain the preset moxibustion temperature PreT of the jth moxibustion point j .
[0064] S3, obtain the standard moxibustion temperature StdT of the jth moxibustion point j . Here, the standard moxibustion temperature is obtained based on big data technology, and the specific steps are: obtain the first optimal moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point of multiple moxibustion patients, and use the average value of the first optimal moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point of multiple moxibustion patients as the standard moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point. Based on big data technology, the average value of the first optimal moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point of multiple moxibustion patients is used as the standard moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point. On the one hand, a standard moxibustion temperature can be preliminarily set, which is convenient for setting the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature for different moxibustion patients, and on the other hand, different preset moxibustion temperatures can be set for different moxibustion points. In other words, different preset moxibustion temperatures can be set for different moxibustion points of different moxibustion patients, which is more targeted and improves the accuracy of the preset moxibustion temperature of the moxibustion points of the electronic moxibustion instrument.
[0065] S4, controlling the movement of the moxa stick according to the preset moxibustion temperature to adjust the distance between the ignited end of the moxa stick and the moxibustion acupoint until the real-time moxibustion temperature is within the preset moxibustion temperature range, and the preset moxibustion temperature range is expressed as
[0066] in, F tempi represents the moxibustion temperature adjustment function of the i-th factor affecting the thermal sensitivity of the human body corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint, T min represents the minimum moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point, T maxrepresents the highest moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point, n represents the number of factors that affect the thermal sensitivity of the human body, and λ i The temperature adjustment coefficient associated with the moxibustion temperature adjustment function of the i-th factor affecting the thermal sensitivity of the human body corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint.
[0067] F tempi A moxibustion temperature regulation function representing the i-th factor affecting human thermal sensitivity corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint, wherein the determination method comprises the following steps: first, for the j-th moxibustion acupoint, other factors affecting human thermal sensitivity are proposed as invariants, and the i-th factor affecting human thermal sensitivity corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint is used as a variable; then, the i-th factor affecting human thermal sensitivity corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint of multiple different moxibustion patients, and the temperature difference between the first optimal moxibustion temperature of the j-th moxibustion acupoint of the moxibustion patient and the standard moxibustion temperature of the j-th moxibustion acupoint are obtained, the i-th factor affecting human thermal sensitivity corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint of the moxibustion patient and the temperature difference are used as scattered point data and a curve is fitted, and the obtained fitting curve function is the moxibustion temperature regulation function of the i-th factor affecting human thermal sensitivity corresponding to the j-th moxibustion acupoint.
[0068] Temperature regulation coefficient λ i The purpose of setting is to consider different moxibustion patients in a targeted manner. There are many factors that affect the thermal sensitivity of different moxibustion patients, including age, gender, body fat percentage, physiological state, etc., as well as health conditions. Diseases such as hyperthyroidism and diabetes can also affect the body's sensitivity to temperature. For example, for different moxibustion patients, if they are in good health and do not suffer from hyperthyroidism or diabetes, the corresponding temperature adjustment coefficient λ can be i Set to 0. For moxibustion patients with diseases such as hyperthyroidism or diabetes, the corresponding temperature adjustment coefficient λ can be appropriately adjusted according to the severity of the disease. i In this way, by adding the temperature adjustment coefficient λ i , the different thermal sensitivity factors of different moxibustion patients can be taken into consideration in a targeted manner, so that the preset moxibustion temperature of the j-th moxibustion point obtained at the end is more targeted, and the accuracy and intelligence of the preset moxibustion temperature of the moxibustion point of the electronic moxibustion instrument are further improved.
[0069] The method for using the electronic moxibustion instrument with intelligent temperature control takes factors that affect human thermal sensitivity into consideration, sets different temperature adjustment coefficients for moxibustion temperature adjustment functions according to different factors that affect human thermal sensitivity, and uses the moxibustion temperature adjustment functions of moxibustion points to adjust the standard moxibustion temperature. The method fully considers the differences in thermal sensitivity of different moxibustion patients and can intelligently set the moxibustion temperatures of different target acupoints according to the thermal sensitivity of different patients, thereby improving the intelligence of the electronic moxibustion instrument and improving the moxibustion effect.
[0070] In addition, by adding the temperature adjustment factor λ i , taking into account the different thermal sensitivity factors of different moxibustion patients, the preset moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point obtained at the end is more targeted, further improving the accuracy and intelligence of the preset moxibustion temperature of the moxibustion point of the electronic moxibustion instrument.
[0071] As a preferred technical solution, the method for using the electronic moxibustion instrument further includes the following steps:
[0072] S5, determine whether there are other moxibustion points within the preset radius of the j-th moxibustion point. If so, respond to the multi-point moxibustion instruction and control the movement of the moxa stick so that the real-time moxibustion temperatures of all moxibustion points within the preset radius of the j-th moxibustion point are within the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature range.
[0073] Here, the preset radius range is pre-stored in the control module of the electronic moxibustion instrument, and the control module controls the movement of the moxa stick in response to the multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction, so that the real-time moxibustion temperature of all moxibustion acupoints within the preset radius range of the jth moxibustion acupoint is within the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature range. The multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction can be obtained by obtaining instruction information input by a user.
[0074] The specific method of controlling the movement of the moxa stick in response to a multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction so that the real-time moxibustion temperature of all moxibustion points within a preset radius of the j-th moxibustion point is within the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature range includes the following steps: first, obtain the positions of all moxibustion points within the preset radius of the j-th moxibustion point, and obtain the geometric center point of all moxibustion points within the preset radius of the j-th moxibustion point, then move the moxa stick to the geometric center point, and finally control the movement of the moxa stick and fine-tune the position of the moxa stick so that the real-time moxibustion temperature of all moxibustion points within the preset radius of the j-th moxibustion point is within the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature range.
[0075] By setting the preset moxibustion temperature range In response to a multi-acupoint moxibustion instruction, the movement of the moxa stick is controlled so that the real-time moxibustion temperatures of all moxibustion points within a preset radius of the jth moxibustion point are within the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature range. Compared with the existing electronic moxibustion instrument, the electronic moxibustion instrument with intelligent temperature control described in the present application can not only perform moxibustion treatment on multiple moxibustion points at the same time, but also adjust the position of the ignition end of the moxa stick according to the different preset moxibustion temperatures of several adjacent moxibustion points, so that several adjacent moxibustion points are within the corresponding preset moxibustion temperature range. Moxibustion treatment is performed on multiple moxibustion points at the same time using one moxa stick, which improves the utilization efficiency of the moxibustion stick and enhances the moxibustion efficacy.
[0076] As a preferred technical solution, the method for using the electronic moxibustion instrument further includes the following steps:
[0077] S6, obtain reference moving speed V std The reference moving speed can be set according to actual conditions and adjusted in response to a user's reference moving speed adjustment instruction.
[0078] S7, controlling the real-time moving speed V of the ignited end of the moxa stick close to the jth moxibustion acupoint j =ε*V std / (T max -PreT j +1);
[0079] Wherein, ε represents the speed adjustment coefficient, which is a constant and can be fine-tuned according to actual needs, and will not be described in detail here.
[0080] The preset moxibustion temperature of the jth moxibustion point can characterize the thermal sensitivity of the jth moxibustion point of the moxibustion patient to a certain extent. j The higher the value, the lower the thermal sensitivity. j The lower the value of, the higher the thermal sensitivity. max -PreT j +1 can represent the thermal sensitivity of the j-th moxibustion point. The higher the value, the higher the thermal sensitivity. Conversely, the lower the value, the lower the thermal sensitivity.
[0081] Real-time moving speed V j =ε*V std / (T max -PreT j+1) By combining the reference moving speed with the thermal sensitivity of the moxibustion acupoints, and adjusting the real-time moving speed according to the thermal sensitivity of the moxibustion acupoints, the higher the thermal sensitivity, the lower the real-time moving speed, and the lower the thermal sensitivity, the higher the real-time moving speed. In this way, the real-time moving speed of the ignited end of the moxa stick approaching the jth moxibustion acupoint is automatically adjusted according to the thermal sensitivity of the moxibustion patient, and the moving speed of the moxa stick is combined with the thermal sensitivity of the moxibustion acupoints of the moxibustion patient, so as to improve the automation and intelligence of the electronic moxibustion instrument, and also further improve its practicality.
[0082] As a preferred technical solution, the method for using the electronic moxibustion instrument further includes the following steps:
[0083] Obtain the real-time pulse data P and real-time blood pressure data BP of the moxibustion patient;
[0084] Acquire a facial image of a moxibustion patient and determine a real-time pain level PD of the moxibustion patient according to the facial image;
[0085] Get the reference moving speed V std ;
[0086] Control the ignition end of the moxa stick to move at a real-time speed Move relative to the jth moxibustion point;
[0087] Among them, P max Indicates pulse threshold, BP max Indicates blood pressure threshold, PD max represents the pain threshold, ε1 represents the first speed adjustment coefficient, and ε2 represents the second speed adjustment coefficient.
[0088] When the real-time pulse data is greater than or equal to the pulse threshold, or the real-time blood pressure data is greater than or equal to the blood pressure threshold, or the real-time pain level is greater than or equal to the pain threshold, the real-time moving speed V j =-ε1*V std At this time, the real-time moving speed is a negative number, indicating that the ignition end of the moxa stick is controlled to move at a real-time moving speed V j =-ε1*V std Stay away from the jth moxibustion point. ε1 represents the first speed adjustment coefficient, which is a constant greater than zero.
[0089] The specific steps of obtaining the facial image of the moxibustion patient and determining the real-time pain level PD of the moxibustion patient according to the facial image include: first obtaining multiple facial images including different pain levels, using multiple facial images with different pain levels to train the neural network model, and then using the trained neural network model to recognize the facial image of the moxibustion patient to determine the real-time pain level of the moxibustion patient. The pain level can be divided into multiple levels and different levels of pain correspond to different values, such as no pain corresponds to 0, mild pain corresponds to 1, moderate pain corresponds to 2, severe pain corresponds to 3, and severe pain corresponds to 4. Of course, it is also possible to assign values to the acquired facial images of different pain levels and then train the neural network model, use the trained neural network model to recognize the facial image of the moxibustion patient, and determine the value corresponding to the real-time pain level of the moxibustion patient.
[0090] Generally speaking, when the human body feels pain, facial expressions will change, and pulse and blood pressure will also increase. When the real-time pulse data is greater than or equal to the pulse threshold, or the real-time blood pressure data is greater than or equal to the blood pressure threshold, or the real-time pain level is greater than or equal to the pain threshold, it can be understood that the moxibustion temperature is too high, causing the moxibustion patient to feel pain or other discomfort such as nervousness and fear. At this time, the moxa stick is controlled to move at a real-time speed V j =-ε1*V std Staying away from moxibustion points can avoid burning the patient's skin or worsening the patient's discomfort, thereby improving the intelligence and practicality of the electronic moxibustion device.
[0091] When the real-time pulse data is less than the pulse threshold, the real-time blood pressure data is less than the blood pressure threshold, and the real-time pain level is less than the pain threshold, it can be understood that the moxibustion patient does not experience obvious discomfort, such as pain, tension, fear, etc. At this time, the real-time moving speed V j =V std / ε2 is a positive number, indicating that the ignition end of the moxa stick is controlled to move at a real-time speed V j =V std / ε2 is far away from or close to the jth moxibustion point. ε2 represents the second speed adjustment coefficient.
[0092] As a preferred technical solution, the second speed adjustment coefficient ε2 = α*ln(T max +PreTj+1+1)+βlnPD. Among them, α represents the thermal sensitivity weight factor, β represents the pain degree weight factor, and both α and β can be set and adjusted according to the actual situation. Here, the second speed adjustment coefficient ε2 is introduced to combine the thermal sensitivity of the jth moxibustion point of the moxibustion patient and the real-time pain degree PD during the moxibustion process to obtain the real-time moving speed V j =V std / ε2, and introduces a thermal sensitivity weight factor and a pain degree weight factor. The thermal sensitivity of the moxibustion patient and the weight of the real-time pain level during the moxibustion process can be measured according to the actual situation, and then the real-time moving speed of the moxa stick can be determined. It not only takes into account the personal constitution of the moxibustion patient, but also takes into account the actual moxibustion situation of the moxibustion patient. Compared with the problem that the moving speed of the moxa stick of the existing electronic moxibustion instrument cannot be adjusted, this application is obviously more targeted and applicable.
[0093] The third embodiment of the present application provides a computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program, which implements the method for using the electronic moxibustion instrument described in the present application when the computer program is executed.
[0094] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the specification of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, is also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
