Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of moxibustion, and in particular to a moxibustion box capable of opening acupuncture points and regulating temperature. Background Art

[0002] Moxibustion is a treatment method that uses moxa sticks and moxa cones made of moxa leaves to stimulate the acupuncture points or specific parts of the body through the heat generated, thereby stimulating the activity of meridian qi to adjust the body's disordered physiological and biochemical functions, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing and curing diseases.

[0003] Acupuncture points are opened by the doctor using his fingers or elbows to gradually press down on the part of the body to be treated, producing a feeling of sourness, numbness, swelling, pain, heat, and throbbing, so that the acupuncture points are opened and the meridians are unblocked, reaching the lesions directly, relieving pain, and having the functions of removing stagnation and relieving pain, opening blockages, regulating qi and blood, harmonizing internal organs, and balancing yin and yang. Acupuncture points are opened before moxibustion in order to stimulate the acupuncture points in advance, activate the surrounding qi and blood, and dredge the surrounding meridians. After the acupuncture points are opened, the medicinal properties of the hot wormwood can smoothly enter the acupuncture points, circulate through the meridians, remove blood stasis and resolve nodules, and warm the yang and dissolve the cold more efficiently.

[0004] Sparrow-pecking moxibustion is a moxibustion technique in which the burning end of the moxa stick is aimed at the selected acupuncture point and the moxibustion is applied in a technique similar to a sparrow pecking, with the acupuncture point moving up and down, sometimes near and sometimes far, to give a stronger warm stimulation.

[0005] Existing moxibustion boxes imitate sparrow pecking moxibustion by moving the moxa stick up and down in a small range inside the box, but it is difficult to have obvious temperature difference and body sensation changes on the human body surface, and the moxibustion box has no acupoint opening function, which requires manual pressing to open the acupoints. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, one of the purposes of the present invention is to provide a moxibustion box that can open acupuncture points, where the moxa stick is not easily extinguished and can produce a stronger temperature difference and body sensation change.

[0007] One of the purposes of the present invention is achieved by the following technical solution:

The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 3 The present application discloses a moxibustion box capable of opening acupuncture points and adjusting temperature, which is used to burn moxa sticks 200 and perform moxibustion using the heat and smoke generated by the burning of the moxa sticks 200. The moxibustion box capable of opening acupuncture points and adjusting temperature includes an upper cover 10, a lower cover 20, an electrode 30, a control assembly 40, a first bearing assembly 50, a mounting assembly 60, a second bearing assembly 70, and an air hood 80.

[0033] The upper cover 10 is a hollow structure, and an air inlet 110 is provided on the upper cover 10. In this embodiment, the air inlet 110 is provided on the side wall of the upper cover 10. The upper cover 10 is cylindrical as a whole. Specifically, the upper cover 10 includes a first cover body 11 and a first hinged portion 12 fixedly connected to the first cover body 11. The air inlet 110 is provided on the first cover body 11, and the first hinged portion 12 is used for the upper cover 10 to be rotatably connected to the lower cover 20. Function buttons and a display panel are provided on the upper surface of the upper cover 10.

[0034] The lower cover 20 includes a second cover body 21, a second hinged portion 22 and an ignition portion 23. The second cover body 21 is provided with an air outlet 210, which is used to release the heat generated by the burning of the moxa stick 200 to perform moxibustion on the user. The second hinged portion 22 is fixedly connected to the second cover body 21, and the second hinged portion 22 is rotatably connected to the first hinged portion 12. The ignition portion 23 is fixed inside the second cover body 21 and is used to ignite the moxa stick 200. In this embodiment, the ignition portion 23 is a tungsten wire.

[0035] The electrode 30 is fixed to the second cover 21 , and is used to massage and open the acupuncture points by low-frequency electrical stimulation before moxibustion to improve the moxibustion effect. Specifically, there are four electrodes 30 , which are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the second cover 21 .

[0036] The control assembly 40 includes a fan 41 and a driving member 42. The control assembly 40 is fixed to the upper cover 10. The fan 41 is used to extract the gas entering the air inlet 110 and deliver the gas to the moxa stick 200 to prevent the moxa stick 200 from extinguishing. The driving member 42 includes a driving body 420 and a first bevel gear 421 fixed to the end of the driving body 420. The driving body 420 drives the first bevel gear 421 to rotate, thereby driving the mounting assembly 60 to rotate.

[0037] The first bearing assembly 50 is mounted on the inner wall of the upper cover 10 and cooperates with the mounting assembly 60, so that the mounting assembly 60 is rotatably mounted on the upper cover 10. Specifically, the first bearing assembly 50 includes two bearings and a retaining ring located between the two bearings.

[0038] Please continue reading Figure 4 as well as Figure 5, the mounting assembly 60 is used to install the moxa stick 200. The mounting assembly 60 is provided with an air vent, and the air vent is used for air to enter the vicinity of the moxa stick 200. Specifically, since the moxa stick 200 generates a large amount of heat when burned, the mounting assembly 60 includes a mounting frame 61 and a mounting box 62 mounted on the mounting frame 61, and the mounting box 62 is made of high temperature resistant material to prevent the mounting box 62 from burning. The mounting frame 61 is made of plastic to reduce costs. The mounting frame 61 includes a main body 610 and a second bevel gear 611 fixed to the bottom of the main body 610, the second bevel gear 611 is meshed with the first bevel gear 421, and the driving member 42 drives the mounting frame 61 to rotate through the second bevel gear 611 and the first bevel gear 421. The main body 610 is provided with a first air vent 6101, and the mounting box 62 includes a box body 620 and a pin 621 fixed to the box body 620. The box body 620 is provided with a second air hole 6201, the position of the second air hole 6201 corresponds to the position of the first air hole 6101, and the insertion pin 621 is used for inserting the moxa stick 200 to facilitate installation and positioning.

[0039] Please continue reading Figure 6 , Figure 7 as well as Figure 8 The second bearing assembly 70 is mounted on the inner wall of the lower cover 20, and the second bearing assembly 70 cooperates with the air cover 80 so that the air cover 80 is rotatably mounted on the lower cover 20. The specific structure of the second bearing assembly 70 is the same as that of the first bearing assembly 50, and both include two bearings and a retaining ring located between the two bearings.

[0040] The air hood 80 is provided with a plurality of smoke holes 81, and the number and position of the smoke holes 81 correspond to the number and position of the air outlet holes 210. A magnet is provided on the air hood 80, so that the air hood 80 and the mounting assembly 60 are adsorbed, and a magnet is also provided on the mounting assembly 60, so that the air hood 80 and the mounting assembly 60 are circumferentially positioned, but at the same time, when the moxibustion box is opened to clean the moxa ash, since the air hood 80 is rotatably connected to the lower cover 20, the air hood 80 and the mounting assembly 60 are separated and opened with the lower cover 20. In other embodiments, the circumferential positioning of the air hood 80 and the mounting assembly 60 can also be achieved by a groove and an axially extending positioning column.

[0041] When using a moxibustion box that can open acupoints and adjust the temperature, before moxibustion, low-frequency electrical stimulation is performed through the electrode 30 to achieve the effect of opening the acupoints. After the acupoints are opened, the ignition unit 23 heats the moxa stick 200 to achieve ignition, and the fan 41 draws air through the air inlet 110 to burn the moxa stick 200. The heat generated by the burning of the moxa stick 200 is gathered in the air hood 80 and flows out through the smoke hole 81. The driving body 420 of the driving member 42 drives the first bevel gear 421 to rotate, and the first bevel gear 421 drives the mounting frame 61 and the mounting box 62 to rotate through the second bevel gear 611. The mounting assembly 60 drives the air hood 80 to rotate relative to the lower cover 20, so that the air hood 80 covers or exposes the air outlet 210. Through the above design, the electrode 30 can massage and open the acupoints through low-frequency electrical stimulation before moxibustion, thereby improving the moxibustion effect. During moxibustion, it is only necessary to control the rotation of the air hood 80 through the driving member 42 to realize the intermittent opening (the smoke hole 81 is aligned with the air outlet 210) and closing (the smoke hole 81 is misaligned with the air outlet 210), which can produce a stronger temperature difference and body sensation change, thereby simulating the temperature change effect of sparrow pecking moxibustion.

[0042] The above embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which are equivalent modifications and improvements made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of the present invention, and all of them belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
