Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of acupuncture applications, and particularly relates to a thumbtack needle device for acupuncture that carries drugs. Background Art

[0002] The thumbtack needle is a traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture therapy that combines traditional acupuncture techniques with modern medical knowledge. It is a method of fixing a special small needle in the dermis or subcutaneous tissue for a long time. By stimulating the acupoints in the skin and muscles, it has significant effects in improving blood circulation, relieving pain, promoting tissue repair, regulating the function of the nervous system, and assisting in the treatment of various diseases.

[0003] In actual use of the existing thumbtack needles, in order to achieve better treatment effects, based on the theory of traditional Chinese medicine meridians, the thumbtack needles and drug application are combined, and the two can synergize with each other to enhance the treatment effect. The continuous stimulation effect of the thumbtack needle combined with the transdermal absorption effect of drug application can more effectively stimulate the meridian function, regulate qi and blood, improve blood circulation, and promote and adjust the body's immune function.

[0004] However, since skin damage will be caused during the thumbtack needle treatment process, during acupuncture, if the disinfection is not strict or the skin is not cleaned properly, the contact between the drug with high water content and the acupuncture injury may increase the risk of infection; and after the thumbtack needle acupuncture or removal, when some irritating drugs come into contact with the acupuncture injury, it is easy to stimulate the acupuncture injury and affect the comfort of the patient. Therefore, the present invention provides a thumbtack needle device for acupuncture that carries drugs, which facilitates the simultaneous acupuncture and wet compress, reduces the contact between the drug and the acupuncture point, and ensures the comfort during the treatment process. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve the above problems, the present invention provides a thumbtack needle device for acupuncture that carries drugs, which facilitates the simultaneous acupuncture and wet compress, reduces the contact between the drug and the acupuncture point, and ensures the comfort during the treatment process.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A thumbtack needle device for acupuncture that carries drugs includes a wet compress cloth for wet compressing drugs and a thumbtack needle for puncturing the skin. A plurality of uniformly arranged acupuncture holes are opened on the wet compress cloth, and a liquid medicine cavity for storing drugs is provided between adjacent acupuncture holes; the thumbtack needle includes a fixing block and a needle body, and the fixing block and the needle body are fixedly connected;

[0007] A dividing mechanism for puncturing the surrounding liquid medicine cavity and isolating the acupuncture hole based on the pressing of the fixing block is provided around each acupuncture hole.

[0008] Further, a transparent plate is fixedly connected to the top of the wet compress cloth, and a plurality of indicating lines are fixedly connected to the transparent plate. The indicating lines are on the same straight line as the acupuncture holes and are perpendicular to each other.

[0009] Furthermore, an activity cavity corresponding to the acupuncture holes is formed in the wet compress cloth. The activity cavity is located between the acupuncture holes and the liquid medicine cavity, and the dividing mechanism is located in the liquid medicine cavity.

[0010] The dividing mechanism includes a number of dividing plates that are slidably matched with the wet compress cloth. A deformable bearing plate is fixedly connected to the top of the dividing plate. The bearing plate is fixedly connected to the transparent plate, and a number of thorn blocks are fixedly connected to the dividing plate.

[0011] On one side of the liquid medicine cavity, a number of communicating membranes corresponding to the thorn blocks are connected. The communicating membranes are located between the liquid medicine cavity and the activity cavity.

[0012] When the bearing plate is in the initial state, the thorn blocks are separated from the communicating membranes; when the bearing plate moves to the lowest point, the thorn blocks are in contact with the communicating membranes.

[0013] Furthermore, the dividing mechanism further includes a filling plate corresponding to the activity cavity. The filling plate is rotationally matched with the wet compress cloth; one end of the filling plate is located below the activity cavity, and there is a gap between the filling plate and the wet compress cloth; the other end of the filling plate is located below the liquid medicine cavity, and the end of the filling plate close to the activity cavity is higher than the end of the filling plate far from the activity cavity.

[0014] Furthermore, a groove is formed at the bottom of the side of the filling plate far from the activity cavity.

[0015] Furthermore, a first magnet block is fixedly connected to the side of the filling plate close to the activity cavity, and a second magnet block with a magnetic direction opposite to that of the first magnet block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dividing plate.

[0016] Furthermore, the transparent plate is divided into a number of transparent blocks by indicating lines, and the liquid medicine cavities are respectively located below the transparent blocks.

[0017] A number of cutting holes are formed in the wet compress layer, and the cutting holes are located below the indicating lines.

[0018] Furthermore, the fixing block is arc-shaped or circular.

[0019] Adopting the above scheme has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. In this scheme, the wet compress cloth is used to fit the skin surface, which is convenient for subsequent drug application, and at the same time, the acupuncture holes evenly arranged on the wet compress cloth are used to indicate the position to indicate the acupuncture points to be treated.

[0021] 2. In this scheme, during acupuncture, the dividing mechanism is used to isolate the acupuncture holes to reduce the contact between the acupuncture site and the external liquid medicine, reduce the contact or stimulation between the liquid medicine and the acupuncture site, reduce the probability of wound infection, and reduce the discomfort of the patient.

[0022] 3. In this solution, during acupuncture, the position during the process of inserting the lifting needle into the skin is utilized to control the outflow of the liquid medicine in the surrounding liquid medicine cavity, so as to achieve the effect of simultaneous acupuncture and drug application; at the same time, through the pre - preservation of the liquid medicine cavity, the temporary preparation of traditional manual drug application is reduced, and the work efficiency is improved.

[0023] Additional aspects and advantages of the present invention will be given in part in the following description, become apparent in part from the following description, or be learned through the practice of the present invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0035] The following is a further detailed description through specific embodiments:

[0036] Embodiment 1:

[0037] As shown in the attached Figures 1 to 7 figures: A lifting needle device for carrying drugs for acupuncture includes a wet compress cloth 1 for wet compressing drugs and a lifting needle 2 for puncturing the skin. A transparent plate 11 is bonded to the top of the wet compress cloth 1, and a number of indicating lines 13 are engraved on the transparent plate 11, and the indicating lines 13 are perpendicular to each other; a number of uniformly arranged acupuncture holes 12 are formed on the wet compress cloth 1, the indicating lines 13 and the acupuncture holes 12 are on the same straight line, and a liquid medicine cavity 3 for storing drugs is provided between adjacent acupuncture holes 12; the lifting needle 2 includes a fixing block 21 and a needle body 22, and the fixing block 21 and the needle body 22 are integrally formed. The fixing block 21 is arc-shaped or circular, and in this embodiment, the shape of the fixing block 21 is preferably arc-shaped.

[0038] A dividing mechanism for puncturing the surrounding liquid medicine cavity 3 and isolating the acupuncture hole 12 based on the pressing of the fixing block 21 is provided around the acupuncture hole 12; a movable cavity 41 corresponding to the acupuncture hole 12 is opened in the wet compress cloth 1, the movable cavity 41 is located between the acupuncture hole 12 and the liquid medicine cavity 3, and the dividing mechanism is located in the liquid medicine cavity 3; the dividing mechanism includes a plurality of dividing plates 4 slidably matched with the wet compress cloth 1, a deformable bearing plate 40 is welded on the top of the dividing plate 4, the bearing plate 40 is bonded to the transparent plate 11, and a plurality of puncturing blocks 42 are welded on the dividing plate 4; one side of the liquid medicine cavity 3 is communicated with a plurality of communicating membranes 31 corresponding to the puncturing blocks 42, and the communicating membranes 31 are located between the liquid medicine cavity 3 and the movable cavity 41. In this embodiment, the dividing plate 4 is a sealed rubber plate; the side wall of the liquid medicine cavity 3 close to the dividing plate 4 is a rubber plate, and the communicating membranes 31 are located between the dividing plates 4; the side wall of the liquid medicine cavity 3 at the lowermost part of the communicating membrane 31 is the wet compress cloth 1, and the wet compress cloth 1 is bonded to the liquid medicine cavity 3; when the bearing plate 40 is in the initial state, the puncturing block 42 is separated from the communicating membrane 31; when the bearing plate 40 moves to the lowest point, the puncturing block 42 abuts against the communicating membrane 31.

[0039] The dividing mechanism further includes a filling plate 5 corresponding to the movable cavity 41, and the filling plate 5 is rotationally matched with the wet compress cloth 1; one end of the filling plate 5 is located below the movable cavity 41, and there is a gap between the filling plate 5 and the wet compress cloth 1; the other end of the filling plate 5 is located below the liquid medicine cavity 3, and the end of the filling plate 5 close to the movable cavity 41 is higher than the end of the filling plate 5 far from the movable cavity 41.

[0040] The specific implementation process is as follows: First, the physician fills the liquid medicine into the liquid medicine cavity 3 according to the part that needs acupuncture and drug application, and fixes the wet compress cloth 1 on the affected area by means of medical tape or the like. The physician provides a clamping space for the movement of the needle body 22 through the arc-shaped or circular fixing block 21, so as to drive the needle body 22 to puncture or remove, and improve the clamping and fixing during the movement of the needle body 22. In another embodiment, the bottom of the liquid medicine cavity 3 is communicated with the wet compress part for storing ointment to directly apply to the skin.

[0041] When selecting the appropriate acupuncture points for the lifting needle 2, the internal structure of the wet compress cloth 1 is displayed through the transparent plate 11, so as to observe the wetting area of the wet compress cloth 1, and thus determine whether the liquid medicine cavity 3 of the wet compress cloth 1 discharges the medicine; at the same time, the wet compress cloth 1 is divided into a number of wet compress blocks of the same size by using the indication line 13, which is not only convenient for dividing the skin to confirm the acupoint positions in the acupuncture area to improve the accuracy of acupoint positioning, but also convenient for confirming the size of the wetting area through the division of the indication line 13 to judge whether additional liquid needs to be supplemented during the acupuncture process to maintain the progress of drug application.

[0042] When the lifting needle 2 is inserted into the body through the acupuncture hole 12, the fixing block 21 presses downward against the bearing plate 40, causing the dividing plate 4 to move downward. During the contact process between the dividing plate 4 and the liquid medicine chamber 3, a gap layer is formed by the gap between the liquid medicine chamber 3 and the dividing plate 4. When the piercing block 42 pierces the internal liquid medicine chamber 3, the liquid medicine fills the gap layer. By filling the gap layer with the liquid medicine, the intermolecular attraction between the liquid medicine and the dividing plate 4 is increased, reducing the distance between the liquid medicine chamber 3 and the dividing plate 4. At the same time, the air inside the gap layer is filled with the liquid medicine and there is no air, and the external atmospheric pressure will press the dividing plate 4 together and it is not easy to separate, so as to keep the piercing block 42 continuously opening the communication membrane 31. Subsequently, the liquid medicine in the liquid medicine chamber 3 wets the wet compress cloth 1 and is applied to the skin surface. Compared with traditional manual drug application, it can reduce the temporary dispensing and medication operation of drug application, has the advantage of convenient use, and improves work efficiency.

[0043] At the same time, during the continuous outflow of the liquid medicine from the liquid medicine chamber 3, the liquid medicine inside the movable chamber 41 flows out to fill the gap between the filling plate 5 and the wet compress cloth 1, so as to fix the filling plate 5, press the other end of the filling plate 5 downward, so as to facilitate the fitting process between the filling plate 5 and the skin surface, and reduce the wetting of the discharged liquid medicine to the acupuncture hole 12; at the same time, through the inclined filling plate 5, it is convenient for the liquid medicine inside the movable chamber 41 to flow away from the acupuncture hole 12 when discharging, so as to reduce the wetting of the liquid medicine to the acupuncture hole 12. In this way, the acupuncture hole 12 is isolated, reducing the contact between the acupuncture site and the external liquid medicine, reducing the contact or irritation between the liquid medicine and the acupuncture site, and reducing the probability of wound infection and the discomfort of the patient.

[0044] In this embodiment, according to the application of the above-mentioned lifting needle device for acupuncture with carried medicine, it stimulates the corresponding acupoints at the body pain site. For example, the lifting needle 2 can continuously stimulate the acupoints on the neck and shoulders, such as Jianjing acupoint, Dazhui acupoint, etc., improving local blood circulation and relieving muscle tension and pain. The drug application can also accelerate the subsidence of inflammation and promote recovery; the combination of the lifting needle 2 and drug application can stimulate the acupoints at the diseased site, such as Taiyang acupoint, Xiaguan acupoint, etc., promoting local blood circulation and lymph flow, reducing inflammation and pain, and is used to improve local blood circulation and relieve muscle tension and pain.

[0045] In this embodiment, according to the application of the above-mentioned lifting needle device for acupuncture with carried medicine, it also stimulates the abdominal related acupoints (such as Zhongwan acupoint, Zusanli acupoint, etc.), which is used to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and improve digestive function.

[0046] Embodiment 2:

[0047] The difference from Embodiment 1 is that a groove is opened at the bottom of the side of the filling plate 5 away from the movable chamber 41.

[0048] The specific implementation process is as follows: When the liquid medicine wets the gap between the filling plate 5 and the skin, when the liquid medicine fills the grooves in the filling plate 5 and there is no air, the external atmospheric pressure will press the filling plate 5 against the skin and it is not easy to separate.

[0049] Embodiment 3:

[0050] The difference from Embodiment 2 is that a first magnet block (not shown in the figure) is fixedly connected to one side of the filling plate 5 close to the movable cavity 41, and a second magnet block (not shown in the figure) with a magnetic direction opposite to that of the first magnet block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the partition plate 4.

[0051] The specific implementation process is as follows: When the partition plate 4 moves to the lowest position, the adsorption effect of the first magnet block and the second magnet block is utilized to maintain the adsorption and fixing effect on the filling plate 5, so as to form an isolation layer through the filling plate 5 to reduce the contact of the liquid medicine with the acupuncture holes 12.

[0052] Embodiment 4:

[0053] The difference from Embodiment 3 is that the transparent plate 11 is divided into several transparent blocks by the indicating line 13, and the liquid medicine cavities 3 are respectively located below the transparent blocks; several cutting holes are formed in the wet compress layer, and the cutting holes are located below the indicating line 13.

[0054] The specific implementation process is as follows: Before use, different area wet compress cloths 1 are formed through the transparent blocks and the cutting holes, so as to adapt to the needs of drug wet compress with different areas, reduce resource waste, and facilitate flexible use.

[0055] Embodiment 5:

[0056] The difference from Embodiment 4 is that a stimulation cavity (not shown in the figure) is formed inside the fixing block 21. A button battery and an electrode patch for regulating and generating a microcurrent are sequentially arranged inside the stimulation cavity from top to bottom. A separator is arranged between the button battery and the input end of the electrode patch. One side of the separator penetrates the fixing block 21, and the separator is slidably matched with the fixing block 21; the output end of the electrode patch is electrically connected to the needle body 22.

[0057] The specific implementation process is as follows: During use, the button battery is separated from the electrode patch by the separator. By flexibly pulling out the separator, the button battery can supply power to the electrode patch, so that the electrode patch generates a microcurrent to simulate the stimulation signal of the nervous system, stimulate the muscles and blood, accelerate metabolism, help the discharge of waste in the body and the delivery of nutrients, improve skin elasticity, and at the same time change the pain signal transmission to relieve pain.

[0058] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples given for clear illustration and are not limitations on the implementation manners. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to exhaustively list all the implementation manners here. And the obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
