Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular relates to a portable moxibustion device. Background Art

[0002] Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy that burns moxa or other medicines and uses their heat and medicinal effects to stimulate specific acupuncture points on the human body to achieve the effects of harmonizing qi and blood, warming the meridians, and strengthening the body and eliminating evil. It is often used to treat and prevent a variety of diseases and is simple, easy, safe and effective.

[0003] However, traditional moxibustion apparatus releases a large amount of moxa smoke and tar during the moxibustion process, which not only affects the relief, but may also affect the health of the respiratory tract. At present, some patents hope to solve this problem, such as a fireproof, heat-insulating and smoke-proof moxibustion box device disclosed in patent publication number CN118384026A. When the smoke volume needs to be adjusted, the main board can be pulled. At this time, the main board slides on the surface of the cover plate under the action of the overlap block and the long pin, and the size of the area blocked by the breathable net changes. At the same time, the side plate can also be rotated to change the size of the area blocked by the side net. That is, the operator can adjust the smoke volume according to his own needs, which improves flexibility and has a smoke-proof effect. The moxibustion box made of stainless steel has a good fireproof and heat-insulating effect.

[0004] In addition, as disclosed in patent publication number CN211751023U, a temperature-controlled moxibustion device can fix the moxa stick in the smoke-proof moxibustion jar through the moxa stick fixing bolt and the moxa stick arc baffle, which is easy to operate. The moxibustion jar fixing cover adopts a zipper design, which is convenient for fixing and disassembling the smoke-proof moxibustion jar, and moxibustion can be specified for some acupoints. The temperature of the smoke-proof moxibustion jar is monitored in real time by a temperature controller, and moxibustion can be timed. The use state is safer and more convenient to prevent burns caused by overheating and effects of efficacy affected by too low temperature. The Velcro design on the fixing belt is convenient for fixing the device, which is suitable for moxibustion of multiple parts of the body. The upper tank body and the lower tank body of the moxibustion jar are fixed by threaded connection, which is convenient for dumping ash, and a filter that can filter PM2.5 particles is provided on the smoke exhaust hole, which is beneficial to environmental protection.

[0005] It can be seen that the main way to prevent smoke in the current smoke-proof moxibustion cup is to use insulation to isolate the smoke generated by the burning of moxa sticks. Therefore, if the smoke does not contact the filter but is suspended in the cavity, the smoke will escape from the gaps in the device or the steaming and moxibustion points, and a good smoke-proof effect cannot be guaranteed. If the moxibustion cup is wrapped in all directions to prevent smoke, it will cause poor air circulation in the cup, and the oxygen in the cup will be consumed, causing the moxa stick to extinguish and the temperature in the cup to be unstable.

[0006] Therefore, there is a need for a convenient moxibustion device that can achieve the effect of eliminating smoke and preventing smoke without affecting the normal combustion of the moxa stick in the jar; at the same time, the device is small and easy to carry, suitable for use in various occasions; in addition, the device can adjust the moxibustion temperature to meet the needs of different patients.

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention designs a portable moxibustion device, which uses an air pump to drain the smoke generated by the burning of moxa sticks in the combustion tank to the inside of the smoke elimination chamber, and uses the negative ions generated by the carbon fiber tip of the negative ion generator to attract and combine the smoke particles in the smoke elimination chamber, so that the originally tiny smoke particles are gathered into larger particles, increase their weight, and settle into the inside of the smoke elimination chamber, so that the smoke outlet pipe of the device can discharge smokeless gas. In this process, due to the operation of the air pump, the inner combustion tank is in a negative pressure state, which ensures that the smoke will not escape from the side wall of the inner combustion tank to the outside under normal conditions, and can only flow out after passing through the smoke elimination chamber; in order to prevent the external airflow from blowing into the inner combustion tank, so that the direction of the smoke changes and causes the smoke to escape, the device is provided with an interlayer in the inner combustion tank, and isolation cotton is placed in the interlayer to play a role in wind and smoke prevention. In addition, the inner combustion tank of the device can be rotated and adjusted with the outer adjustment tank, so that the air flow inside the inner combustion tank changes, thereby changing the degree of burning of the moxa sticks, thereby adjusting the temperature in the tank. At the same time, the fixed needle can be adjusted in height by rotating, changing the contact distance between the moxa stick and the patient's skin, and further adjusting the patient's body temperature. Finally, in order to facilitate fixation, the device is equipped with a fixing belt, so that the device can be fixed on the patient to ensure that the device will not fall off due to movement or posture changes during use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention; it is obvious that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] The present invention discloses a portable moxibustion device, referring to Figures 1 to 7 , comprising: an anti-smoke moxibustion box 1 and a fixing belt 2; the fixing belt 2 is detachably connected to the anti-smoke moxibustion box 1.

[0034] The core part of the device is the smoke-proof moxibustion box 1, which is composed of multiple components, including an inner combustion pot 101, isolation cotton 102, an outer adjustment pot 103, a fumigation net 104, a component bin 105, a smoke elimination bin 106, a negative ion generator 107, an air pump 108 and a fixing needle 109. The inner combustion pot 101 is a container for placing moxa sticks 3 and burning, and a plurality of circular air holes are evenly distributed on its side wall to ensure the air circulation required for the burning of moxa sticks 3. A fixed interlayer 1010 is also provided inside the inner combustion pot 101, and isolation cotton 102 is fixed inside the interlayer 1010 to play the role of heat insulation and preventing smoke from escaping.

[0035] The outer regulating pot 103 surrounds the outer side of the inner combustion pot 101, and a plurality of strip-shaped air holes are arranged on its outer wall, and these air holes can be adjusted by rotating the outer regulating pot 103, so as to control the amount of air flowing into the inner combustion pot 101, and then adjust the burning speed and temperature of the moxa stick 3. The fumigation net 104 is installed at the bottom of the inner combustion pot 101, and a plurality of fumigation holes are arranged at the bottom, which allow the hot air generated by the burning of the moxa stick 3 to be evenly emitted, providing a mild warming effect.

[0036] The component compartment 105 is located at the top of the inner combustion pot 101 and is detachably connected to the inner combustion pot 101 for easy disassembly and cleaning. A smoke inlet pipe 1011 is provided inside the component compartment 105, and a smoke outlet pipe 1012 is provided on the side wall. The smoke inlet pipe 1011 is responsible for guiding the smoke from the inner combustion pot 101 to the smoke elimination compartment 106. The negative ion generator 107 is fixedly installed inside the component compartment 105 for generating negative ions to purify the smoke. A button 1013 is provided outside the component compartment 105 for controlling the working state of the negative ion generator 107. The fixed needle 109 is installed in the center of the component compartment 105 by threaded fitting, and the height can be adjusted as needed to change the distance between the moxa stick 3 and the patient's skin, thereby adjusting the temperature of the moxibustion.

[0037] The smoke elimination chamber 106 is designed to collect and process smoke. It can be detachably connected to the top of the component chamber 105. The smoke inlet pipe 1011 introduces smoke into the smoke elimination chamber 106. The carbon fiber tip 1014 of the negative ion generator 107 is also connected to the inside of the smoke elimination chamber 106. It attracts and combines smoke particles by generating negative ions, causing them to settle, thereby purifying the smoke. The air pump 108 is fixed inside the component chamber 105, with its air inlet end connected to the inside of the smoke elimination chamber 106, and its air outlet end fixedly connected to the smoke outlet pipe 1012, responsible for discharging the purified gas.

[0038] The working principle and use process of this device are as follows:

[0039] When using the device, the patient first takes the device out of the package, removes the upper part of the component compartment 105, and checks whether the isolation cotton 102 is installed in the interlayer 1010. Insert the moxa stick 3 into the fixing needle 109 and ignite it, and then install the upper part of the component compartment 105 back to the original position of the device. Next, the position of the strip-shaped air holes is adjusted by rotating the outer adjustment tank 103 to control the air flow and the burning degree of the moxa stick 3. The patient adjusts the distance between the fumigation net 104 and the bottom of the inner combustion tank 101 as needed to control the temperature of the warm moxibustion.

[0040] After everything is ready, the patient puts the fixing belt 2 around his waist or shoulders, and adjusts the tightness of the fixing belt 2 according to the comfort level to ensure that the device is firmly fixed on the body. The patient presses the button 1013 outside the component compartment 105 to start the air pump 108 and the negative ion generator 107 to start the smoke from the inner combustion tank 101 to the smoke elimination compartment 106. At this time, the negative ion generator 107 works at the same time, generating negative ions to attract and combine smoke particles, causing them to settle inside the smoke elimination compartment 106, thereby discharging smoke-free gas.

[0041] During the treatment, the patient can freely adjust the inner combustion pot 101 and the outer regulating pot 103 to change the burning degree of the moxa stick 3 and the temperature inside the pot, and change the distance between the moxa stick 3 and the skin by rotating the fixed needle 109 to obtain the best steaming experience. During the entire treatment, the patient can easily read, write or other light activities without worrying about the stability of the device or the influence of smoke. After the treatment, the patient can easily disassemble and clean the various parts for next use.

[0042] The preferred embodiments of the present invention disclosed above are only used to help explain the present invention. The preferred embodiments do not describe all the details in detail, nor do they limit the invention to only the specific implementation methods described.
