Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to an acupuncture cupping device. Background Art

[0002] In traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture and cupping are two common treatment methods. Acupuncture regulates Qi and blood by inserting fine needles into specific acupuncture points on the human body to promote the body's self-healing ability, while cupping promotes blood circulation and Qi and blood flow by creating a negative pressure area on the skin. Both methods have their own advantages, but in practice, they are usually performed separately.

[0003] In order to improve the stimulation effect on acupuncture points and affected areas, researchers have developed a treatment method that combines acupuncture and cupping. Patent documents such as CN101947190B and CN212261879U also disclose corresponding acupuncture cupping treatment devices. However, the existing documents have the following problems: 1. It is difficult to adjust the air pressure in the tank, because negative pressure will be generated in the tank during cupping, and skin damage will occur during acupuncture. When the air pressure in the tank is too high, tissue fluid or blood will quickly seep out from the skin damage; 2. The existing acupuncture cupping device can only realize a simple acupuncture function, and cannot achieve the purpose of stimulating acupuncture points by simulating specific techniques to improve the treatment effect. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] This embodiment discloses an acupuncture cupping device, comprising a cup body 1 and a needle 2. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the tank body 1 is provided with an air pressure regulating assembly 3, a needle clamping assembly 4 and a rotating assembly 5. The air pressure regulating assembly 3 is used to monitor and control the pressure inside the tank body 1, and the needle clamping assembly 4 is arranged inside the tank body 1 to clamp the needle 2. The rotating assembly 5 drives the needle clamping assembly 4 to rotate, and then drives the needle 2 to rotate, so as to achieve the purpose of simulating the needle twisting technique.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the air pressure regulating assembly 3 is arranged at the top of the tank body 1, including a vent pipe 31 and a regulating valve 32 arranged on the vent pipe 31, and a pressure sensor 33 for monitoring the internal pressure of the tank body 1 is arranged on the vent pipe 31. The pressure sensor 33 is arranged on the side of the regulating valve 32 close to the tank body 1. The regulating valve 32 is a rotary air valve, and the opening and closing degree of the vent pipe 31 can be adjusted by manual rotation, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting the negative pressure inside the tank body 1. Since this scheme combines cupping with acupuncture, skin damage will occur at the acupuncture puncture site. If the negative pressure inside the tank body 1 is large, more bleeding or exudate may appear around the puncture site. At this time, the vent pipe 31 can be slightly opened through the regulating valve 32 to allow external air to be replenished into the tank body 1 to reduce the negative pressure inside the tank body 1. If the internal pressure of the tank body 1 is insufficient, a syringe can also be used to extract part of the air from the vent pipe 31 to increase the negative pressure inside the tank body 1. A display screen 34 showing the pressure sensor degree 33 can also be provided on the top of the tank body 1 for the operator to read.

[0038] like Figure 4-5 As shown, the rotating assembly 5 is arranged at the top of the tank body 1, and includes a motor 51, a transmission member 52 and a rotating shaft 53. The motor 51 drives the rotating shaft 53 to move through the transmission member 52, and the rotating shaft 53 is rotatably connected to the top of the tank body 1 through a sealed bearing 54, and the rotating shaft 53 extends to the inside of the tank body 1. The clamping needle assembly 4 is arranged at the end of the rotating shaft 53 and rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 53.

[0039] like Figure 6 As shown, a rubber ring 21 is provided on the top of the needle 2 , and after the needle clamping assembly 4 clamps the rubber ring 21 , it rotates under the drive of the motor 51 .

[0040] like Figure 7As shown, a connector 531 is provided at the bottom of the rotating shaft 53, and a hinge seat 532 is provided at the bottom of the connector 531.

[0041] The needle clamping assembly 4 is composed of two clamping plates 41 arranged opposite to each other. Figure 8 As shown, a straight rod portion 42 is provided at the top of the clamping plate 41, and hinge shafts 43 are provided at both ends of the straight rod portion 42 to cooperate with the hinge seat 532; a locking block 44 is provided at the top of the straight rod portion 43, and the width of the locking block 44 is half of the width of the straight rod portion 42. The locking blocks 44 on the two clamping plates 41 are provided with mutually cooperating protrusions or depressions 45. Fig. 9 As shown, after the clamping plates 41 are opened, the protrusions or depressions 45 on the two clamping plates 41 cooperate with each other to lock the clamping plates 41 in the open state. The inner wall of the clamping plate 41 is provided with an anti-slip portion 411 to increase the friction with the rubber ring 21. A strong magnet 412 is provided at the lower part of the clamping plate 41. Figure 7 As shown, after the needle clamping assembly 4 is closed, the strong magnets 412 on the two clamping plates 41 attract each other, so that the two clamping plates 41 are tightly attracted to each other, thereby firmly clamping the needle 2.

[0042] When in use, first insert the needle 2 into the patient's designated acupuncture point. Then manually open the needle clamping assembly 4. At this time, the needle clamping assembly 4 is in an open state due to the mutual cooperation of the protrusions or depressions 45 on the two clamps 41 to form a self-locking. At this time, the tank body 1 covers the needle 2 from the top, and the top of the needle 2 lightly touches the locked position of the two locking blocks 44. Since the protrusions or depressions 45 on the two clamps 41 are shallow in structure, only a slight locking can be completed. When pushed by the top of the needle 2, the locking is immediately released, and then the needle clamping assembly 4 is closed, and the needle 2 is clamped under the action of the strong magnet 412. Subsequently, the needle 2 can be driven to rotate by controlling the working state of the motor 51 to simulate the needle twisting operation.

[0043] The motor 51 and the transmission member 52 are provided with an outer shell 55. The outer shell 55 is provided with a power switch 551 and a mode button 552, and a control circuit board and a power supply are provided inside. The motor 51 in this embodiment adopts a miniature stepping motor, which can rotate at a corresponding angle, a corresponding speed, and a corresponding time under the control of the mode button 552 through the programming of the control circuit board. For example, fast forward rotation of 180-360°, and then slow reverse rotation to reset, simulate the invigorating needle technique; or fast reverse rotation of 180-360°, and then slow forward rotation to reset, simulate the draining needle technique.

[0044] The bottom of the can body 1 is provided with a flared portion 11, and the flared portion 11 is rounded to improve the comfort during cupping. The can body 1 is made of transparent acrylic material, which ensures high transparency and facilitates observation of the puncture hole while reducing the cost of material use, and can also effectively improve the connection effect between the can body 1 and the air pressure regulating component 3 and the rotating component 5.

[0045] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
