[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Example:

[0033] Please see attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2The embodiment of the present invention provides a multifunctional automatic moxa stick forming device that can be spliced, including:

[0034] The base 11 is connected with a universal wheel 5 at the bottom, which is convenient for the whole device to be moved between different venues. The four corners of the top of the base 11 are fixedly connected with the limit rods 10. The top of the base 11 is provided with a top plate 7. The top of the top plate 7 is fixedly connected with a plurality of top rods 6. The top plate 7 is fixedly connected with handles on both sides. The top plate 7 is slidably connected with the limit column 10. In the layout adjustment of the moxibustion treatment site, the flexible displacement of the device can be easily realized, which improves the convenience and versatility of the device.

[0035] The mold module is composed of mold 1 4, mold 2 8 and mold 3 9, which are stacked and used. Each module is provided with evenly distributed truncated cone grooves. Moxa sticks of different shapes and sizes can be combined by stacking the modules. Mold 1 4 is fixedly connected to the limit rod 10. This design cleverly solves the problem of difficulty in removing the moxa stick from the mold, avoids the situation where the moxa stick is damaged due to forced removal, and ensures the integrity and quality of the moxa stick:

[0036] The bottom diameter of the truncated cone groove of the mold 1 4 is 3 mm, the top diameter is 14 mm, and the height is 12 mm;

[0037] The truncated cone groove of the mold 2 8 has a lower diameter of 14 mm, an upper diameter of 20 mm, and a height of 10 mm;

[0038] The truncated cone groove of the mold 3 9 has a lower diameter of 20 mm, an upper diameter of 27 mm, and a height of 10 mm;

[0039] The extrusion device is powered by a hydraulic pump 2 to enable the pressing plate 3 to slide on the outer wall of the limiting column 10. The hydraulic pump 2 is located inside the chassis 1, and the hydraulic rod can provide stable and adjustable pressure. The extrusion pressure can be accurately controlled according to the different qualities of the moxa and the hardness of the required moxa sticks, so that the hardness and burning time of the moxa cakes can be relatively controllable, thereby achieving the precise and scientific treatment purpose, and the output end of the hydraulic pump 2 is connected to the pressing plate 3, and the four corners of the bottom of the chassis 1 are connected to the top of the limiting column 10. The bottom of 3 is connected to an extrusion head by magnetic adsorption. The diameter of the extrusion head is a cylinder of 12mm, 18mm, and 25mm, and the height is 5mm. This connection and limiting method ensures that during the extrusion process, multiple extrusion heads can work together to form a stable extrusion plane, so that the moxa is evenly stressed, and the quality and consistency of moxa stick molding are improved. When the extrusion head needs to be replaced or adjusted, the magnetic adsorption connection is also convenient for operation.

[0040] Based on the above-mentioned multifunctional automatic moxa stick forming device, as another aspect of the present invention, a multifunctional automatic moxa stick forming method is proposed, comprising the following steps:

[0041] Step 1: According to the specifications of the required moxa stick, select the appropriate mold module for splicing, and place it between the pressing plate 3 and the top plate 7, wherein the mold 1 4, the mold 2 8 and the mold 3 9 are stacked and connected to form a larger size of moxa stick to meet the needs of large-area moxibustion or special treatment; the mold 1 4 and the mold 2 8 can be stacked to make a medium-sized moxa stick; the mold 1 4 is used to make a moxa stick with a smaller bottom diameter, which is suitable for moxibustion of small-area acupuncture points;

[0042] Step 2: evenly fill an appropriate amount of moxa into the truncated cone cavity of the mold module, with the truncated cone cavity being distributed in a 10×10 pattern;

[0043] Step 3: Start the hydraulic pump 2 of the power part, drive the hydraulic rod to move downward, and extrude the moxa in the mold through the extrusion head at the bottom 3. Adjust the pressure of the hydraulic pump according to the quality of the moxa and the required hardness of the moxa stick. The hydraulic pump has the advantages of strong power, stable pressure, and easy adjustment, which can meet the power requirements of the extrusion device for efficient and precise extrusion of moxa. At the same time, by reasonably designing the parameters and control system of the hydraulic pump, the entire extrusion process can be automatically controlled, further improving the efficiency and quality of moxa stick production;

[0044] Step 4: After the extrusion is completed, the hydraulic pump 2 is turned off, the hydraulic rod rises back to its original position, and the top plate 7 is moved upward by the handle to push out the formed moxa column through the push rod 6, and the height of the push rod 6 is 2 mm;

[0045] Step 5: Take out the moxa sticks and proceed with the subsequent sorting and packaging work.

[0046] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
