Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of acupuncture instruments, and more particularly to an acupuncture warming needle device. Background Art

[0002] Warming needle, also known as warm acupuncture and moxibustion, is a traditional Chinese medical therapy that combines acupuncture and moxibustion. By fixing an moxa cone on the handle of an acupuncture needle and igniting it, the heat generated by the burning of the moxa cone is conducted through the needle body to the deep part of the acupoint.

[0003] However, during the actual treatment process, the ashes after the burning of the moxa cone are likely to fall off, scatter, and scald the skin. Moreover, it is impossible to adjust the burning amount of the moxa cone and the conduction heat of the needle body according to the patient's heat tolerance, that is, it is impossible to control the temperature within a suitable and stable range for acupuncture treatment, thereby affecting the treatment effect of acupuncture. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art and provide an acupuncture warming needle device.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

At the upper end of the inner column, there is a contact rod and a spring sleeved on the contact rod. A cylinder for placing an moxa cone is slidably sleeved up and down on the outer periphery of the inner column. The bottom of the cylinder is provided with a bottom plate. The contact rod penetrates through the bottom plate and abuts against the moxa cone located inside the cylinder. The spring abuts against the lower end of the bottom plate. The handle of the acupuncture needle penetrates through the bottom plate and extends into the cylinder.

[0007] Preferably, a contact ring is provided on the chassis. An outer shell is rotatably provided on the contact ring. A ring sleeve located on the outer periphery of the cylinder is provided on the outer shell. An air hole one is provided on the cylinder above the moxa cone. An air hole two corresponding to the position of the air hole one is provided on the ring sleeve.

[0008] Preferably, a limiting ring for abutting against the upper end of the moxa cone and a cover located above the limiting ring are provided inside the cylinder. The air hole one is provided between the limiting ring and the cover. A pressing ring extending upward through the outer shell is provided at the upper end of the cylinder.

[0009] Preferably, opposite notches are provided on both sides of the inner column. Rotating plates that abut against each other and clamp the acupuncture needles are rotatably installed on the notches. The pressing ends of the rotating plates penetrate through the notches and extend obliquely outward. The lower end of the cylinder extends downward to the pressing ends.

Specific Embodiment

[0030] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0031] In the description of this specification, the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or unit referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.

[0032] As Figures 1 to 8 shown, an acupuncture and moxibustion warming needle device includes a chassis 1 and an inner column 2 fixed inside the chassis 1. The inner column 2 is located in the middle of the chassis 1 and is arranged to penetrate up and down. The inner column 2 is used to place the acupuncture needle 5. After the acupuncture needle 5 pierces the acupoint, the inner column 2 is sleeved outside the acupuncture needle 5, and a rubber ring 13 is fixed at the lower end of the chassis 1. The needle tip 52 of the acupuncture needle 5 penetrates downward through the rubber ring 13, and the chassis 1 can be adhered to the skin through the rubber ring 13 to prevent it from falling during the use of this embodiment.

[0033] An abutting rod 26 and a spring 27 sleeved on the abutting rod 26 are arranged at the upper end of the inner column 2. Specifically, a buckling cover 25 is buckled at the upper end of the inner column 2, the abutting rod 26 is fixed on the buckling cover 25, and the acupuncture needle 5 penetrates through the buckling cover 25 and extends upward.

[0034] A cylinder body 4 for placing moxa cones 6 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the inner column 2 in a vertically sliding manner. The side wall of the cylinder body 4 can slide up and down along the outer periphery of the inner column 2. The outer periphery of the moxa cone 6 is in interference fit with the inside of the cylinder body 4. A bottom plate 41 is arranged at the bottom of the cylinder body 4, and the bottom plate 41 is in interference fit with the inside of the cylinder body 4. A contact plate 42 is arranged on the bottom plate 41, and the upper end of the contact plate 42 abuts against the moxa cone 6. An opening 421 is formed on the side of the contact plate 42, and the needle handle 51 of the moxibustion needle 5 is arranged inside the opening 421.

[0035] And the contact rod 26 penetrates through the bottom plate 41 and abuts against the moxa cone 6 located inside the cylinder body 4. The contact rod 26 abuts against the lower end of the moxa cone 6 to limit the position of the lower end of the moxa cone 6. The spring 27 abuts against the lower end of the bottom plate 41, and the spring 27 supports the cylinder body 4 through the bottom plate 41.

[0036] The needle handle 51 of the acupuncture needle 5 penetrates through the bottom plate 41 and extends into the cylinder body 4. The needle handle 51 is arranged close to the moxa cone 6. A limiting ring 43 for abutting against the upper end of the moxa cone 6 and a cover 45 located above the limiting ring 43 are arranged inside the cylinder body 4. The cover 45 is buckled on the upper end of the cylinder body 4 to close the upper end of the cylinder body 4. The upper end of the moxa cone 6 can be ignited through the upper end opening of the cylinder body 4, and the cover 45 is buckled on the cylinder body 4 after ignition.

[0037] The moxa cone 6 is ignited and placed inside the cylinder body 4. When the patient feels that the temperature of the acupuncture needle 5 is too high, by pressing the cylinder body 4, the contact rod 26 can be used to abut against and push the moxa cone 6 to slide upward inside the cylinder body 4 to appropriately move away from the needle handle 51, thereby reducing the heat conduction temperature of the acupuncture needle 5 to better adapt to the treatment of the patient. And because the moxa cone 6 is arranged inside the cylinder body 4, the ashes after the combustion of the moxa cone 6 can be centrally collected in the cylinder body 4, and at the same time, it can also prevent the ashes of the falling moxa cone 6 from scalding the skin.

[0038] A contact ring 11 is arranged on the bottom frame 1, and a housing 3 is rotatably arranged on the contact ring 11. A first magnetic ring 12 is installed inside the contact ring 11, and a second magnetic ring 31 opposite to the first magnetic ring 12 is arranged on the housing 3. The housing 3 is connected to the contact ring 11 by the mutual magnetic attraction of the first magnetic ring 12 and the second magnetic ring 31.

[0039] A ring sleeve 32 located on the outer periphery of the cylinder body 4 is arranged on the housing 3. The ring sleeve 32 is attached to the outer periphery of the cylinder body 4. Specifically, an air hole 321 located above the moxa cone 6 is formed on the cylinder body 4. The air hole 321 is formed between the limiting ring 43 and the cover 45. An air hole 44 corresponding to the position of the air hole 321 is formed on the ring sleeve 32. The air hole 321 and the air hole 44 are arranged corresponding to each other inside and outside.

[0040] By rotating the outer shell 3, the overlap degree between the first air hole 321 and the second air hole 44 can be adjusted, that is, the size of the relatively overlapping area between the first air hole 321 and the second air hole 44 is changed, so as to adjust the air intake of the cylinder body 4, and then control the burning amount of the moxa stick 6. The greater the burning amount of the moxa stick 6, the relatively higher the temperature generated by it. Therefore, by controlling the burning amount of the moxa stick 6, the temperature of the acupuncture needle 5 can be more accurately controlled. While ensuring the treatment effect of the acupuncture needle 5, the comfort of the treatment is improved, and discomfort to the patient is avoided.

[0041] For the convenience of pressing and adjusting the cylinder body 4, a pressing ring 46 is provided at the upper end of the cylinder body 4 and penetrates upward through the outer shell 3, so that the operation of pressing the cylinder body 4 downward is more convenient by setting the pressing ring 46.

[0042] Relatively arranged notches 22 are formed on both sides of the inner column 2, and a rotating plate 21 that abuts against and clamps the acupuncture needle 5 is rotatably installed on the notches 22. Specifically, a resisting plate 23 is arranged in the inner column 2 below the rotating plate 21, a tension spring 24 is fixed on the resisting plate 23, and the other end of the tension spring 24 is fixed on the rotating plate 21, so that the two rotating plates 21 are kept in a tendency of relative rotational abutment through the tension spring 24. Furthermore, by arranging the rotating plate 21 for clamping the acupuncture needle 5 in the inner column 2, the acupuncture needle 5 is supported to avoid the weight of the needle handle 51 and the moxa stick 6 bending the acupuncture needle 5 and causing discomfort to the patient.

[0043] And the pressing end 211 of the rotating plate 21 penetrates through the notch 22 and extends obliquely outward. When the inner column 2 needs to be sleeved on the outer periphery of the acupuncture needle 5, by pressing the pressing end 211, a channel for the acupuncture needle 5 to pass through is opened in the inner column 2. After the acupuncture needle 5 passes through the inner column 2, the pressing end 211 is no longer pressed, so that the rotating plate 21 can rotate and clamp and fix the acupuncture needle 5.

[0044] The lower end of the cylinder body 4 extends downward to the pressing end 211. Then, when the cylinder body 4 is pressed, the lower end of the cylinder body 4 can press down the pressing end 211, so that the two rotating plates 21 are away from the acupuncture needle 5, and the acupuncture needle 5 is kept at an interval from the inner column 2 and the cylinder body 4. Furthermore, it is avoided that the cylinder body 4 drives the acupuncture needle 5 to displace downward during the subsequent pressing process and pierce deeper into the body acupoints.

[0045] A convex ring 231 that extends obliquely upward is arranged at the middle of the resisting plate 23. Through the cooperation of the resisting plate 23 and the convex ring 231, the ashes dropped after the burning of the moxa stick 6 are further collected, especially the ashes dropped after the moxa stick 6 is completely burned, so as to avoid the ashes scalding the patient and ensure the comfort of the patient during treatment.

[0046] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
