Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of acupuncture and cupping disinfection, and in particular to a rapid disinfection device for acupuncture and cupping. Background Art
[0002] Cupping devices are generally composed of a vacuum cup, a vacuum gun, and a connecting pipe. The vacuum cup needs to be cleaned and disinfected after one use. Existing acupuncture cupping device disinfection devices generally clean the vacuum cup by flushing it with water, and then use high temperature to disinfect it. This cleaning and disinfection method makes the cleaning and disinfection of the vacuum cup low in efficiency and incomplete.
[0003] The currently disclosed Chinese patent CN215508243U is a rapid disinfection device for acupuncture cupping device for traditional Chinese medicine treatment, comprising a main body, a cylinder is arranged at the bottom of the main body, a lifting plate is arranged at the top of the cylinder, a water storage pipe is arranged on the inner side of the lifting plate, a water inlet pipe is arranged at the bottom of the water storage pipe, a rotating rod is arranged on the top of the water storage pipe, a water trough is opened on the inner side of the rotating rod, a water outlet hole is opened on the outer surface of the rotating rod, a cleaning sponge is arranged on the top of the rotating rod, a motor is arranged inside the lifting plate, a transmission part is arranged outside the rotating rod, a rubber pad is arranged on the inner side of the main body, a vacuum tank is arranged at the bottom of the rubber pad, a cavity is opened on the inner side of the rubber pad, an air hole is opened on the bottom of the rubber pad, an air guide tube is arranged outside the rubber pad, an air suction pump is arranged outside the air guide tube, and an ultraviolet lamp is arranged on the inner side of the main body. Through the design of the ultraviolet lamp, the vacuum tank can be sterilized and disinfected throughout the cleaning and drying process, so that it is no longer necessary to disinfect it separately after cleaning, thereby significantly improving the efficiency of cleaning and disinfection of the vacuum tank.
[0004] According to the above patent, the above patent continuously absorbs the water discharged from the water outlet through the cleaning sponge, and drives the rotating rod to rotate by starting the motor. The rotation of the rotating rod drives the cleaning sponge to rotate, so that the cleaning sponge can rotate to clean the inside of the cupping device. However, only the inside of the cupping device is cleaned by the cleaning sponge, and the outside cannot be cleaned. Although the outer surface may not directly contact the patient's skin, during use and storage, the outer surface may also be contaminated with bacteria, dust and other pollutants. In addition, during the operation, the doctor's hand may touch the outer surface and then touch the patient or internal components. Therefore, the outer surface also needs to be disinfected to ensure the hygiene and safety of the entire treatment process. In addition, the method of fixing the cupping device by adsorption in the above patent is relatively cumbersome, resulting in low disinfection efficiency. Therefore, there is a need for a disinfection device that can quickly disinfect and ensure thorough disinfection. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0032] See also Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, a rapid disinfection device for acupuncture cupping comprises a disinfection table 1, on which a plurality of processing units 3 for disinfecting a cupping device 2 are arranged in a matrix, the processing unit 3 comprises a disinfection cylinder 31 fixed on the disinfection table 1 and a cleaning mechanism 32 for cleaning the cupping device 2, and a clamping mechanism 33 for fixing the cupping device 2, the cleaning mechanism 32 comprises an inner brush 321 capable of cleaning the inside of the cupping device 2, and an outer brush 322 capable of cleaning the outside of the cupping device 2, the disinfection cylinder 31 is coaxially provided with a brush for driving the inner brush 321 to clean the inside of the cupping device 2, and a brush 322 for cleaning the outside of the cupping device 2 to clean the inside of the cupping device 2 to clean ... inside of the cupping device 2 to clean the outside of the cupping device 2 to clean the inside of the cupping device 2 to clean the inside of the cupping device 2 to clean the inside of the cupping device 2 to clean the outside of the cupping device 2 to clean the inside of the cupping device 2 to clean the inside of the cupping device 2 to clean the inside of the cupping device 2 to clean the inside of the cupping device 2 to clean the inside of the cupping device 2 The inner brush member 321 is driven by a driving shaft 323 for rotating the inner brush member 321, and a connecting structure 4 is provided between the inner brush member 321 and the outer brush member 322 to ensure that the cupping device 2 is clamped therebetween. When the operator sets the cupping device 2 on the inner brush member 321 with the opening facing downward, the cupping device 2 is clamped between the inner brush member 321 and the outer brush member 322 under the action of the connecting structure 4, and the clamping mechanism 33 is controlled to fix the cupping device 2, so that the cupping device 2 is in a relatively static state during the rotation of the inner brush member 321 and the outer brush member 322 driven by the driving shaft 323.
[0033] When the operator is sterilizing the acupuncture cupping device 2, first, the operator holds the cupping device 2 with the opening facing downwardly toward the sterilizing cylinder 31, and sets the cupping device 2 on the inner brush member 321. During the process of lowering the cupping device 2, the connection structure 4 between the inner brush member 321 and the outer brush member 322 is automatically adjusted, so that the outer brush member 322 tightly surrounds the cupping device 2 to form a tightly fitting state. After all the cupping devices 2 to be sterilized are placed in a sterilizing cylinder 31, the clamping mechanism 33 clamps the cupping device 2, and then the operator controls the driving shaft 323 to start rotating, driving the inner brush member 321 to rotate 360 degrees around the inside of the cupping device 2 for cleaning. At the same time, the outer brush member 32 2 also rotates synchronously. Since the cupping device 2 is clamped, the cupping device 2 is in a stationary state relative to the rotating inner brush member 321 and the outer brush member 322, thereby effectively removing the stains and microorganisms on the inner and outer surfaces of the cupping device 2. The disinfectant is injected into the disinfection cylinder 31, and the cupping device 2 is quickly and comprehensively disinfected in combination with the inner brush member 321 and the outer brush member 322 to effectively kill the pathogens. After a period of disinfection, the operator controls the clamping mechanism 33 to release the clamping, and the cupping device 2 can be easily lifted from the disinfection cylinder 31. If there is water stain or disinfectant residue on the cupping device 2 after it is taken out, it can be quickly dried using the equipped blowing device to ensure that the cupping device 2 is completely dry and sterile before storage or reuse.
[0034] See also Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the disinfection table 1 is provided with a rotary driver for driving all the driving shafts 323 to rotate synchronously, the lower end of the driving shaft 323 is open and a hollow channel 3231 is provided inside, the surface of the driving shaft 323 is provided with a plurality of inner nozzles 3232 for spraying disinfectant toward the inner wall of the cupping device 2, the peripheral wall of the disinfection cylinder 31 is provided with a plurality of outer nozzles 311 for spraying disinfectant toward the outer wall of the cupping device 2, and the disinfection table 1 is provided with a drain port 11 for the disinfectant inside the disinfection cylinder 31 to flow out.
[0035] The operator places the cupping devices 2 to be disinfected on each processing unit 3 one by one with the opening facing downward. After the cupping devices 2 are correctly positioned and clamped between the inner brush member 321 and the outer brush member 322, the clamping mechanism 33 is activated to firmly and gently lock the cupping device 2 to ensure that it remains stable during the entire disinfection process. As the drive shaft 323 rotates, disinfectant is injected into the hollow channel 3231, and the inner nozzle 3232 located on the surface of the drive shaft 323 accurately sprays disinfectant onto the inner wall of the cupping device 2. The outer nozzle 311 of the peripheral wall of the disinfection tube 31 is aimed at the outer wall of the cupping device 2 and sprays synchronously, forming a three-dimensional disinfection mode inside and outside, ensuring that the disinfectant can fully cover the surface of the cupping device 2. Driven by the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322, the disinfectant further strengthens the contact and reaction between the disinfectant and the surface of the cupping device 2, thereby improving the disinfection efficiency. After the disinfection is completed, the excess disinfectant is automatically discharged through the drain port 11 below the peripheral wall of the disinfection tube 31, which not only keeps the disinfection environment clean, but also avoids the waste of disinfectant.
[0036] See also Figure 2-Figure 7 As shown, the clamping mechanism 33 includes a plurality of inner clamping rods 331 evenly distributed in the circumferential direction around the disinfection tube 31, and an inner clamping driving assembly 332 for driving all the inner clamping rods 331 to clamp the cupping device 2. A ring sleeve 333 with deformation ability is provided around the upper opening of the disinfection tube 31. The outer ring of the ring sleeve 333 is fixedly connected to the disinfection tube 31, and the inner ring of the ring sleeve 333 is fixedly connected to one side of the surface of the cupping device 2 that all the inner clamping rods 331 can press against.
[0037] After the operator correctly places the cupping device 2 in the disinfection cylinder 31, the inner clamping rod 331 rotates and presses the surface of the cupping device 2, effectively forming a closed disinfection environment, reducing the splashing phenomenon that may be generated during the high-speed rotation and spraying of the disinfectant, and keeping the work area clean and safe. Secondly, the closed gap further promotes the circulation and retention of the disinfectant on the inner and outer surfaces of the cupping device 2, increasing the contact time and efficiency of the disinfectant and pathogens, and improving the thoroughness of the disinfection. Furthermore, by reducing the interference of external air, it is beneficial to maintain the concentration and activity of the disinfectant, ensuring the maximum disinfection effect.
[0038] See also Figure 5-Figure 10 As shown, the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322 are brush strip structures that can fit tightly against the inner and outer walls of the cupping device 2, respectively. A plurality of the inner brushes 321 and the outer brushes 322 are evenly distributed around the circumference of the disinfection tube 31. One inner brush 321 is correspondingly arranged with one outer brush 322, and a connecting structure 4 is provided between each inner brush 321 and the corresponding outer brush 322.
[0039] Each inner brush 321 is interconnected with the corresponding outer brush 322 through a connecting structure 4, allowing the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322 to move in coordination. When the drive shaft 323 rotates, the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322 can rotate synchronously and maintain a certain pressure to contact the surface of the cupping device 2, thereby enhancing the scrubbing effect. The inner brush 321 penetrates into the interior of the cupping device 2, touches and cleans the inner wall of the cupping device 2. At the same time, the outer brush 322 rotates synchronously along the outer wall of the cupping device 2 to remove dirt and potential pathogens on the outer surface. While the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322 rotate, the cupping device 2 is evenly covered with disinfectant, thereby greatly improving the disinfection efficiency and quality.
[0040] See also Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Fig.10 As shown, the lower ends of the inner brush member 321 and the outer brush member 322 respectively have an integrally connected fixed block 41 and a movable block 42, and the movable block 42 can move relative to the fixed block 41 along the axial direction perpendicular to the disinfection cylinder 31, and the connecting structure 4 has a guide rod 43 extending from the fixed block 41 toward the movable block 42, and a compression spring 44 mounted on the guide rod 43, and the movable block 42 is provided with a sliding mouth slidably mounted on the guide rod 43, one end of the compression spring 44 is fixedly connected to the movable block 42, and the other end is fixedly connected to the guide rod 43.
[0041] When the operator places the cupping device 2 between the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322, the outer brush 322 is squeezed outward by the pressure of the cupping device 2. At this time, the movable block 42 moves away from the fixed block 41 under the guidance of the guide rod 43 until the inner side of the cupping device 2 is completely in contact with the inner brush 321. The outer brush 322 is in contact with the outer surface of the cupping device 2, thereby clamping the cupping device 2 between the outer brush 322 and the inner brush 321. When the driving shaft 323 drives the inner brush 321 to rotate, since the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322 are connected together through the guide rod 43, the outer brush 322 rotates synchronously around the cupping device 2, thereby ensuring uniformity and comprehensiveness of the disinfection.
[0042] See also Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the upper end of the outer brush member 322 has a guide portion 3221 that is bent outward to facilitate the outward protruding edge of the opening of the cupping device 2 to enter the inner brush member 321 and the outer brush member 322. When the cupping device 2 is put into place, a groove is formed between the inner brush member 321 and the outer brush member 322 for the outward protruding edge of the opening of the cupping device 2 to be embedded.
[0043] When placing the cupping device 2, the operator firstly points the opening of the cupping device 2 downward and aligns it with the entrance formed by the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322. The guide portion 3221 bent outward at the upper end of the outer brush 322 provides a clear introduction port for the opening of the cupping device 2. The opening edge of the cupping device 2 gradually slides between the outer brush 322 and the inner brush 321. When the opening edge of the cupping device 2 completely enters the guide portion 3221, it immediately slides down to the slot between the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322. Area, as the cupping device 2 is advanced, the outer brush 322 is subjected to pressure, and the movable block 42 moves away from the fixed block 41 under the guidance of the guide rod 43, and the compression spring 44 accumulates elastic potential energy during the deformation process. When the inner side of the cupping device 2 is completely fitted with the inner brush 321, the compression spring 44 rebounds to make the outer brush 322 fit tightly against the outer wall of the cupping device 2, ensuring that the cupping device 2 is firmly clamped between the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322, preparing for the subsequent efficient disinfection and cleaning.
[0044] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a support structure 5 is provided inside the disinfection cylinder 31 to ensure stable operation of all inner brush members 321 and outer brush members 322 .
[0045] The support structure 5 provides a solid base for the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322, which can effectively reduce vibration even under high-speed rotation and continuous working conditions, and prevent the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322 from shifting or vibrating, thereby ensuring the continuity and accuracy of the brushing action, improving the coverage and cleanliness of each brushing, reducing missed brushing or incomplete brushing, and improving the overall disinfection efficiency.
[0046] See also Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 8-Figure 10 As shown, the support structure 5 has an outer ring 51 which is coaxial and fixedly connected to the disinfection cylinder 31, and an inner ring 52 which is coaxial and rotatably arranged in the disinfection cylinder 31. A ball 53 for reducing friction is arranged between the inner ring 52 and the outer ring 51. The ends of all guide rods 43 extending outward are fixedly connected to the inner ring 52. When the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322 rotate, the inner ring 52 is in a synchronous rotation state.
[0047] A number of balls 53 arranged between the inner ring 52 and the outer ring 51 effectively separate the direct contact between the inner ring 52 and the outer ring 51, reducing friction and wear during rotation. The outer ends of all guide rods 43 are fixedly connected to the inner ring 52, which means that when the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322 rotate, they indirectly drive the inner ring 52 to rotate synchronously through the guide rods 43, ensuring the smoothness and consistency of the movement of the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322, so that the guide rods 43 are supported, thereby indirectly ensuring the stability of the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322.
[0048] See also Figure 5-Figure 7 As shown, each inner clamping rod 331 is rotatably arranged at the upper end of the sterilizing cylinder 31, and each inner clamping rod 331 is fixedly provided with a rotating shaft 3311 rotatably arranged at the upper end of the sterilizing cylinder 31. The sterilizing cylinder 31 is provided with an axial hole for the rotating shaft 3311 to pass through, and a reset torsion spring 3312 sleeved on the rotating shaft 3311 is fixedly connected between the rotating shaft 3311 and the sterilizing cylinder 31. The force of the reset torsion spring 3312 makes the inner clamping rod 331 contact and fix the cupping device 2.
[0049] See also Figure 3-Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner clamp driving assembly 332 includes a rotating ring 3321 rotatably mounted on the upper end of the disinfection cylinder 31, and a push-pull rod 3322 hingedly arranged between each inner clamp rod 331 and the rotating ring 3321. The disinfection table 1 is provided with an inner clamp driver for driving all the rotating rings 3321 to rotate synchronously.
[0050] When the rotating ring 3321 rotates, the push-pull rod 3322 acts as a transmission part to convert the rotational motion into a push-pull action on the inner clamping rod 331, thereby controlling the horizontal swing of the inner clamping rod 331 to achieve the clamping or loosening of the cupping device 2. The inner clamping driver located on the disinfection table 1 is responsible for driving all the rotating rings 3321 to rotate synchronously, ensuring that even when multiple points are operated simultaneously, the movements of all the inner clamping rods 331 remain coordinated, thereby improving the overall operating accuracy and efficiency, and facilitating the synchronous disinfection operation of multiple cupping devices 2.
[0051] According to the present invention, the operator precisely aligns the opening of the cupping device 2 downward with the inner brush 321 in the disinfection cylinder 31. As the cupping device 2 is lightly placed, the outer brush 322 tightly fits and surrounds the cupping device 2, ensuring comprehensive cleaning. Then, the clamping mechanism 33 is activated to lock the position of the cupping device 2 to prevent any slippage, laying a solid foundation for subsequent deep cleaning. As the driving shaft 323 is activated, the inner brush 321 and the outer brush 322 work together to deeply scrape and clean the inner and outer surfaces of the cupping device 2 while keeping the cupping device 2 relatively still, effectively removing stubborn stains and potential microorganisms, and significantly improving the comprehensiveness and efficiency of disinfection.
[0052] The above embodiments only express one or several implementation modes of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for those of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
