Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of quantification of traditional Chinese medicine massage techniques, and in particular to a laboratory system for quantification comparison of massage parameters. Background Art

[0002] Chinese medicine massage is mainly based on the theory of Chinese medicine meridians. The doctor uses his hands to use different strengths and a variety of techniques such as pushing, holding, pressing, kneading, pinching, tapping, and patting to stimulate the human body's meridians and acupoints or specific positions. Combined with Western medicine anatomy, imaging and pathological diagnosis, it improves physiological and pathological conditions and solves diseases by dredging meridians and promoting the flow of Qi and blood. It is a non-drug natural therapy and physical therapy.

[0003] According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the basic requirements of massage force are persistence, force, uniformity, gentleness and deep penetration. The most obvious feeling of patients during massage is the force, speed and direction of force application. The therapeutic effect of massage also depends mainly on the reasonable use of massage force and technique. However, the efficacy of massage force and technique for the disease depends entirely on the experience of the masseur, which is not conducive to the qualitative and quantitative research of traditional Chinese massage as a medical means. It is very important to effectively improve the level of traditional Chinese massage and conduct qualitative and quantitative research on massage techniques in the laboratory. Therefore, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the invention

The palm pressure sensor includes a plurality of flexible pressure sensors, which are placed in the front of the palm and the base of the palm in different areas to collect the pressure of the palm.

[0035] On the back of the hand of the glove 101, four data recorders 105 corresponding to the four finger sleeves except the thumb are arranged. The two finger joint sensors 103 on the four finger sleeves are respectively connected to the corresponding data recorders 105 through connecting lines. The arranged data recorders 105 are convenient for recording the data of the two finger joint sensors 103 on the same finger, so as to facilitate the calculation of the manipulation data of each finger later. A wrist joint sensor 104 is installed at the wrist joint of the glove 101, which is used to collect the steering direction, steering acceleration and force of the wrist.

[0036] The data collection terminal 2 is used to receive the massage technique data from the data collection terminal 1, classify and calculate, convert the data into a signal recognizable by a computer, and transmit it to the data storage and analysis terminal 3. The data collection terminal 2 of the present invention includes a housing 201, such as Figure 4 As shown, a data collection module is placed inside the housing 201; a display screen 202 is provided on the side wall of the housing 201, which is used to feedback the status function of the data collection terminal 2 and the real-time data collection situation; a plurality of wiring terminals 203 are provided on the top of the housing 201, which are used to receive real-time data from the sensors on the glove 101, and the fingertip pressure sensor 102, the finger joint sensor 103 on the thumb sleeve, the four data recorders 105, the palm pressure sensor and the wrist joint sensor 104 are respectively connected to the wiring terminals 203 through connecting wires.

Medical staff summarize and analyze to obtain the most ideal technique data, thereby providing a technique data reference for treatment.

[0043] The method for quantitatively comparing the manipulation data during the massage process using the laboratory system of the present invention is as follows:

[0044] (1) The masseur puts on gloves and performs massage on the patient or experimental model, and aligns and corrects the meridians and acupoints of the human body in the computer system according to the meridians and acupoints on the surface of the patient or experimental model. The sensors on the gloves respectively collect the force direction, steering acceleration, joint force, fingertip pressure and palm pressure of the finger joints and wrist joints; the formal massage can first use the existing meridian and acupoint positioning device to locate the acupoints or meridians, so that the massage position is recorded accurately;

[0045] (2) The data in step (1) are transmitted to the data collection end in real time for classification and calculation, and the data are converted into signals recognizable by the computer and transmitted to the data storage and analysis end;

[0046] (3) The data storage and analysis end analyzes and processes various data, performs scene simulation and hand movement restoration, and presents the massage process and real-time data in three dimensions on the display module;

[0047] (4) Call the expert massage technique data and treatment effects in the database, and compare the massage technique data after analysis with the expert massage technique data in the database. After the massage, the patient undergoes relevant imaging examinations, and the examination results are entered into the data storage unit. At the same time, the treatment effects generated by the collected massage technique data are compared and evaluated with the treatment effects generated by the expert massage technique data, and the evaluation results are obtained. The medical staff summarizes and analyzes to obtain the most ideal manipulation data, thereby providing a manipulation data reference for treatment.

[0048] The laboratory system for quantitative comparison of massage parameters provided by the present invention can collect fingertip pressure, palm pressure, force direction of finger joints and wrist joints, steering acceleration, and joint strength in real time during the massage process through data collection gloves, can perform scene simulation and hand movement restoration, and conduct comparative evaluation based on the final manipulation data and treatment effects. It can intuitively and scientifically conduct qualitative and quantitative research on the manipulations in the massage process, which helps to improve the level of Chinese medicine massage.
