Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fumigators, in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine spleen and stomach treatment fumigator and an application method. Background Art
[0002] Spleen and stomach treatment holds a crucial place in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory. The spleen and stomach are considered the "foundation of acquired constitution," and their health is directly linked to overall well-being. Spleen and stomach dysfunction often manifests as symptoms such as bloating, belching, diarrhea, constipation, nausea and vomiting, acid reflux, and heartburn, severely impacting patients' quality of life. Therefore, finding effective treatments is crucial.
[0003] The spleen and stomach treatment fumigator is a medical device that combines Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory with modern technology. It aims to improve spleen and stomach function and alleviate related symptoms through fumigation therapy. This fumigator not only inherits the essence of traditional Chinese medicine but also incorporates innovative elements of modern technology, achieving new heights in both therapeutic effectiveness and user experience. However, some existing spleen and stomach treatment fumigators are bulky and heavy, making them difficult to transport. Summary of the Invention

[0037] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, a heat-insulating layer is provided on the inner wall of the heat-insulating rod.
[0038] On the other hand, the present invention also provides a method for using a traditional Chinese medicine spleen and stomach treatment fumigator, comprising the fumigator; the method further comprising:
[0039] S1. Add Chinese medicine and water to a heating furnace, close the sealing cover, and control the driver and heater to start simultaneously. The heating power is adjusted to the maximum. The rotating blade connected to the driver rotates synchronously to stir the Chinese medicine and water in the heating furnace. When the preset time of the timing module is reached, the driver stops working.
[0040] S2. Have the patient lie on the treatment bed, adjust the height of the heat preservation rod by adjusting the nut, and then place the sealing cover on the patient's spleen and stomach;
[0041] S3. The temperature acquisition module in the heating furnace acquires the temperature in the heating furnace in real time. When the temperature in the heating furnace reaches the boiling point, the control module reduces the power of the heater and turns on the solenoid valve and the blower. At the same time, the heater continues to provide a stable heat source for the heating furnace, ensuring that the Chinese medicine water can be continuously heated and converted into water vapor. Under the action of the blower, the water vapor enters the connecting pipe through the air outlet, and is then evenly distributed into the air flow box through the shunt pipe, and then continuously fumigates the spleen and stomach of the patient through the sealed cover;
[0042] S4. During the fumigation treatment, the liquid level acquisition module monitors the amount of Chinese herbal medicine water in the heating furnace in real time. When the amount of Chinese herbal medicine water falls below the preset warning line, the alarm module will immediately send out an audible and optical signal to remind medical staff to add water in time;
[0043] S5. As the treatment progresses, the control module will automatically adjust the heater power according to the data fed back by the temperature acquisition module in the airflow box to keep the temperature in the heating furnace stable within the optimal fumigation temperature range; at the same time, the fan will start as needed and inject an appropriate amount of air into the connecting pipe through the gas one-way valve to help the water vapor distribute and flow better;
[0044] S6. During the fumigation treatment process, the display module displays the current treatment status in real time, including the temperature in the heating furnace, the temperature in the airflow box, the amount of Chinese medicine water, and the fumigation time; the timing module is also used to record the treatment time;
[0045] S7. When the fumigation treatment is completed, the control module automatically turns off the heater and the solenoid valve to stop the heating and fumigation process of the Chinese medicine water.
[0046] The present invention offers the following advantages: by installing a mobile base at the bottom of the fumigator, the fumigator can be easily moved, resolving the inconvenient mobility issues of existing fumigators. Furthermore, by integrating multiple intelligent modules and functional designs, the present invention significantly improves treatment efficiency and user experience. For example, the collaborative operation of the control module and display module enables visualization and intelligent management of the treatment process, allowing medical staff to intuitively understand the current treatment status and adjust treatment parameters in a timely manner. Furthermore, the linkage between the liquid level acquisition module and the alarm module effectively prevents treatment interruptions caused by insufficient Chinese herbal medicine solution, ensuring the continuity and effectiveness of treatment. Furthermore, the fumigator of the present invention incorporates a driver and rotating rod design, which stirs the Chinese herbal medicine solution for more uniform heating, improving the extraction efficiency of the herbal ingredients and thus enhancing the therapeutic effect. The combined use of a blower and a gas check valve further promotes the uniform distribution and flow of water vapor, ensuring comprehensive coverage and deep penetration of the patient's spleen and stomach. The insulation rod design of the present invention not only features height adjustment but also effectively reduces heat loss through a built-in insulation layer, thereby improving thermal energy utilization. Furthermore, the telescopic section design on the connecting tube further enhances the adaptability and flexibility of the fumigator, making it suitable for patients of varying body shapes and treatment needs. Through refined operational procedures and intelligent control strategies, this invention achieves precise control and optimization of the treatment process. From the mixing and heating of the Chinese medicine and water, to adjusting the patient's position and placing the sealing cover, to real-time monitoring and adjustment during treatment, each step reflects the ultimate pursuit of therapeutic effectiveness and patient experience.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0057] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0058] Example 1
[0059] like Figure 1 As shown, a traditional Chinese medicine spleen and stomach treatment fumigator, the fumigator comprises:
[0060] Mobile base; the mobile base includes a universal wheel 17 and a base 1. In this embodiment, the universal wheel 17 is equipped with four universal wheels 17. Medical staff can move the fumigator arbitrarily based on the four universal wheels 17, thereby improving the flexibility of the fumigator of this embodiment; the universal wheels 17 of this embodiment are all equipped with brake units.
[0061] Heater 2 is mounted on the mobile base. In this embodiment, heater 2 is an electric heating tube whose power is automatically adjusted according to the control module's instructions, ensuring that the Chinese medicinal liquid in heating furnace 3 reaches its boiling point quickly and stably. Heater 2 is wrapped with thermal insulation to reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency.
[0062] The heating furnace 3 is arranged on the heater 2 and is used to boil the Chinese medicine water and atomize the Chinese medicine water. The heating furnace 3 of this embodiment is a cylindrical structure made of stainless steel material and can be detachably mounted on the heater 2. A feeding port 4 is provided on the top of the heating furnace 3 to facilitate medical staff to add Chinese medicine and water to the heating furnace. A sealing cover 5 is installed on the top of the heating furnace 3. A sealing gasket is provided between the sealing cover 5 and the heating furnace 3 to ensure that there is no air leakage during the heating process and to keep the pressure and temperature in the heating furnace stable. An air outlet 6 is provided on one side of the heating furnace, which is connected to the connecting pipe 19 to guide the generated water vapor to the spleen and stomach area of the patient.
[0063] A feeding port 4 is provided at the top of the heating furnace 3;
[0064] A sealing cover 5 is movably arranged on the feeding port 4;
[0065] An air outlet 6 is provided at the top of the heating furnace 3;
[0066] The impurity discharge port 18 is provided at the bottom of the heating furnace 3 ; the impurity discharge port 18 is installed at the bottom of the heating furnace 3 to discharge the Chinese medicine residue after the heating furnace 3 is used. A manually controlled one-way valve is installed on the impurity discharge port 18 .
[0067] The insulation rod 8 is arranged on the mobile base; the insulation rod 8 is made of stainless steel, and an insulation layer 20 is installed on the inner wall, and the insulation rod 8 is divided into two sections, the upper and lower sections are controlled by adjusting the nut 13 to control the length of the insulation rod 8. When the adjusting nut 13 is loosened, the insulation rod 8 of the upper section can be moved upward or downward. After the movement is completed, the adjusting nut 13 is tightened to adjust the length of the insulation rod 8 to meet the needs of users of different body shapes.
[0068] Connecting tube 19 is connected to the air outlet 6 and is disposed within the heat-insulating rod 8. In this embodiment, connecting tube 19 is made of a retractable material and includes a telescopic section 26 (elastic element) to allow for adjustment of the length of connecting tube 19 according to treatment needs. One end of connecting tube 19 is connected to the air outlet 6 of the heating furnace 3, ensuring leak-free transmission of water vapor to the patient's spleen and stomach. The other end extends to the end of the heat-insulating rod 8 and connects to the diverter tube 10, ensuring uniform distribution of the water vapor.
[0069] The shunt pipe 10 is arranged on the insulation rod 8 through the connector 9, and one end is connected to the connecting pipe 19 through the joint, and the other end is connected to the airflow box 11; Figure 6As shown, the top of the diverter pipe 10 is an air inlet, and the bottom is four air outlets, which transport water vapor to the interior of the airflow box 11 in four directions. The top of the airflow box 11 is provided with four drainage ports, which are respectively connected to the four air outlets of the diverter pipe 10. The bottom of the airflow box 11 is in an open state and is connected to the sealing cover 12, which is used to introduce the water vapor in the airflow box 11 into the sealing cover 12.
[0070] The sealing cover 12 is disposed at the bottom of the shunt tube 10. The sealing cover 12 is made of a soft material, such as medical-grade silicone, to ensure good sealing performance and patient comfort.
[0071] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the traditional Chinese medicine water in the heating furnace 3 is first heated by the heater 2, causing it to quickly reach boiling point and generate water vapor. This water vapor enters the connecting pipe 19 through the air outlet 6 at the top of the heating furnace 3, and is then transmitted along the inside of the insulation rod 8 to the shunt pipe 10. Within the shunt pipe 10, the water vapor is evenly distributed to the four air outlets and then enters the sealing cover 12 through the drainage port of the airflow box 11. The sealing cover 12 fits tightly against the patient's spleen and stomach, ensuring that the water vapor can fully act on the treatment area.
[0072] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the fumigator further includes:
[0073] like Figure 7 As shown, the display module 14 is arranged on the heat preservation rod 8; Figure 1 As shown, the display module 14 is a display screen, which is fixedly mounted on the heat preservation rod 8. The display screen can display the temperature in the heating furnace 3, the temperature in the airflow box 11, the amount of Chinese medicine water and the fumigation time in real time.
[0074] The liquid level acquisition module is arranged in the heating furnace 3; the liquid level acquisition module is a liquid level sensor, which is electrically connected to the control module and installed in the heating furnace 3. It is used to monitor the liquid level in the heating furnace 3 in real time and send the liquid level information in the heating furnace 3 to the control module. When the liquid level is lower than the preset value, the control module controls the alarm module to sound an alarm.
[0075] The temperature acquisition module is arranged in the airflow box 11 and the heating furnace 3; the temperature acquisition module is a temperature sensor. In this embodiment, temperature sensors are installed in the airflow box 11 and the heating furnace 3. The two temperature sensors are used to collect temperature data in the airflow box 11 and the heating furnace 3 respectively, and send them to the control module. When the temperature of the airflow box 11 is higher than the preset temperature threshold, the controller controls the alarm module to alarm and prompt medical staff.
[0076] The electromagnetic valve 7 is provided on the air outlet 6 to control the on-off of the air outlet 6; Figure 1 and7 As shown, the solenoid valve 7 is installed on the air outlet 6 and is electrically connected to the control module, and the on and off of the solenoid valve 7 is controlled by the control module.
[0077] The control module is connected to the display module 14, the liquid level acquisition module, the temperature acquisition module, the heater 2 and the solenoid valve 7; in this embodiment, the control module uses an FPGA controller.
[0078] A timing module is connected to the control module. The timing module is a timing circuit that records the fumigation time of the fumigator and transmits this information to the control module in real time. Medical staff can view the current fumigation duration on the display module to monitor treatment progress. When the fumigation time reaches a preset value, the control module automatically shuts off the heater 2 and solenoid valve 7, ceasing the generation and transmission of water vapor and emitting a completion tone to alert medical staff.
[0079] The communication module is connected to the control module and is used to communicate with the outside world. The communication module of the present embodiment is a wireless communication module, which is used to connect to a remote control system or a mobile device (such as a smart phone or a tablet computer) to remotely monitor and adjust the various parameters of the fumigator. Users or medical staff can check the operating status of the fumigator anytime and anywhere through a dedicated APP, including the current temperature, liquid level, fumigation time, etc., and adjust the settings as needed. For example, when the patient feels unwell or needs to adjust the treatment plan, the medical staff can remotely adjust the temperature of the heating furnace, the fumigation time and other parameters to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the treatment process.
[0080] The storage module is connected to the control module and serves as a memory device for recording and storing historical fumigator usage data, treatment parameter adjustment records, and fault alarm information. This data not only facilitates medical staff's tracing and analysis of patient treatment progress but also provides important reference for optimizing subsequent treatment plans. The storage module utilizes a high-reliability design to ensure long-term data preservation even in power outages, preventing data loss.
[0081] The alarm module is connected to the controller and is used to emit sound, light and electricity signals. The alarm module is an sound and light alarm, which is installed in a conspicuous position on the fumigator to facilitate medical staff and patients to detect. When the liquid level acquisition module detects that the amount of water in the heating furnace is lower than the preset safety threshold, or the temperature acquisition module finds that the temperature in the airflow box 11 is too high and exceeds the normal range, the control module will immediately activate the alarm module. At this time, the alarm module will emit a loud buzzing sound and a high-brightness warning light to quickly attract the attention of people around and ensure that the problem can be discovered and handled in time. In addition, the design of the alarm module also takes into account the user's auditory and visual needs, ensuring that the user can accurately receive the alarm signal in a noisy environment or with poor eyesight, thereby ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the treatment process. At the same time, the alarm module is closely connected to the control module. When the problem is solved or restored to a safe state, the control module will automatically turn off the alarm module to avoid unnecessary interference.
[0082] like Figure 7 As shown, the control module is integrated within the fumigator and intelligently controls the fumigation process through pre-set programs and algorithms. The control module is connected to components such as the heater 2, fan 16, solenoid valve 7, liquid level acquisition module, temperature acquisition module, display module 14, and alarm module. It receives feedback signals from each module and issues corresponding control instructions. For example, if the temperature acquisition module detects that the temperature inside the heating furnace is too high, the control module automatically reduces the heater power. If the liquid level acquisition module detects that the amount of traditional Chinese medicine liquid is below the warning level, the control module activates the alarm module and notifies medical staff to add water immediately.
[0083] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the fumigator further includes:
[0084] The driver 15 is arranged on the top of the heating furnace 3 and is connected to the control module; Figure 1 As shown, the driver 15 is a reduction motor, which is installed on the top of the heating furnace 3 by screws, and the working state of the driver 15 is controlled by the control module.
[0085] The rotating rod 24 is disposed in the heating furnace 3 and is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the driver 15;
[0086] The paddle 25 is disposed on the rotating rod 24 and rotates synchronously with the rotating rod 24 .
[0087] like Figure 1 and 4As shown, one end of the rotating rod 24 is fixed to the inner wall of the heating furnace 3, and the other end passes through the central area of the heater 2 and is tightly connected to the output shaft of the driver 15. Under the control of the control module, the driver 15 drives the rotating rod 24 to rotate at a low speed, thereby driving the paddle 25 to stir inside the heating furnace 3. The design of the paddle 25 takes into account the fluidity and stirring efficiency of the Chinese medicine liquid. It adopts a wide-leaf, low-resistance design to ensure that the Chinese medicine liquid can be fully mixed during the stirring process, prevent the Chinese medicine from precipitating or agglomerating, and ensure the uniform distribution of the Chinese medicine components in the water vapor. At the same time, the rotation speed of the paddle 25 is precisely calculated and controlled to avoid excessive disturbance to the water in the heating furnace 3, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the fumigation process.
[0088] Furthermore, as a further improvement to the present invention, the control module can automatically adjust the speed and operating time of the driver 15 according to the type and concentration of the Chinese medicine, as well as the treatment requirements, to achieve precise stirring and dynamic adjustment of the Chinese medicine liquid. This intelligent control method not only improves treatment efficiency but also makes the entire fumigation process more humane and personalized.
[0089] During actual use, medical staff only need to pour an appropriate amount of traditional Chinese medicine liquid into the heating furnace 3 and set the corresponding treatment parameters. The fumigator will then automatically complete a series of operations such as heating, stirring, and fumigation. At the same time, medical staff can also view the operating status and various parameters of the fumigator in real time through the display module to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the treatment process.
[0090] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the fumigator further includes:
[0091] The fan 16 is disposed in the heat preservation rod 8 and is connected to the control module. The air outlet of the fan 16 is connected to the connecting pipe 19 through a gas one-way valve.
[0092] like Figure 1As shown, the fan 16 is installed in the insulation rod 8, and a plurality of small through holes are provided on the side of the insulation rod 8 close to the fan 16 for air intake to the bottom of the fan 16. These small through holes not only provide the necessary air circulation for the fan. The fan 16 operates under the control of the control module, and the airflow generated by it enters the connecting pipe 19 through the gas one-way valve, and is then transmitted to the airflow box 11 via the connecting pipe 19, providing power for the transmission of water vapor. This design not only ensures the smooth flow of water vapor, but also prevents external impurities from entering the fumigation system, ensuring the purity of the treatment environment. In addition, the rotation speed of the fan 16 is also precisely controlled by the control module. According to the treatment needs and the current system status, the control module can automatically adjust the rotation speed of the fan 16 to control the output and speed of water vapor. When rapid heating or improved treatment effectiveness is required, the control module increases the fan speed, allowing water vapor to enter airflow box 11 more quickly and be evenly distributed over the patient. When maintaining a stable temperature or reducing treatment intensity, the fan speed is reduced accordingly. The intelligent control of fan 16 not only improves treatment efficiency but also makes the entire fumigation process more comfortable and safe. Medical staff and patients no longer need to manually adjust the fan; they only need to focus on the treatment effect. Furthermore, the silent design of fan 16 ensures a quiet treatment environment, minimizing disruption to patients and medical staff.
[0093] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the fumigator further includes an adjusting nut 13 , which is provided on the heat-insulating rod 8 and is used to adjust the height of the heat-insulating rod 8 .
[0094] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, a counterweight 27 is provided at the bottom of the sealing cover 12 .
[0095] like Figure 1 As shown, the bottom of the sealing cover 12 is fitted with counterweights. These counterweights are made of fine metal particles, divided into multiple small bags proportionally and evenly sewn to the bottom edge of the sealing cover 12. This design not only increases the stability of the sealing cover 12, preventing it from shifting due to airflow or patient movement during fumigation, but also ensures a close fit between the sealing cover 12 and the patient's body, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effect. The presence of the counterweights allows the sealing cover to better adapt to patients of different body shapes, ensuring a stable and uniform fumigation experience for both adults and children.
[0096] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, a telescopic section 26 is provided on the connecting pipe 19 , and the telescopic section 26 is used to cooperate with the thermal insulation rod 8 to adjust the height.
[0097] like Figure 1 and 5As shown, when the height of the insulation rod 8 is adjusted, the length of the connecting tube 19 installed in the insulation rod 8 also needs to be adjusted accordingly to maintain the connectivity and stability of the entire fumigation system. The introduction of the telescopic section 26 is precisely to address this need. Its ingenious design allows it to flexibly expand and contract to adapt to changes in the height of the insulation rod 8. When medical staff adjust the height of the insulation rod 8 by adjusting the nut 13, the telescopic section 26 automatically extends or contracts, ensuring that the connecting tube 19 is always tightly connected to the insulation rod 8, preventing air and water leaks, and ensuring smooth transmission of water vapor.
[0098] In addition, the telescopic section 26 also has a certain degree of pressure resistance and can withstand a certain amount of external pressure, preventing damage to the connecting tube 19 due to patient movement or improper operation during treatment. This design not only improves the durability of the fumigator, but also further ensures the safety and reliability of the treatment process.
[0099] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, a wave-breaking plate 21 is provided in the heater 2 , and a plurality of through holes 22 and a rotating rod mounting hole 23 are provided on the wave-breaking plate 21 .
[0100] like Figure 3 As shown, the wave-breaking plate 21 is horizontally installed in the heater 2 and is made of medical-grade stainless steel. It is used to prevent the Chinese medicine liquid from violently fluctuating in the heater when the fumigator moves, thereby protecting the heater from damage and maintaining stable heating of the Chinese medicine liquid. The through holes 22 are evenly distributed on the wave-breaking plate 21. These through holes not only allow water vapor to rise smoothly, but also promote the circulation of the Chinese medicine liquid in the heater, thereby improving the heating efficiency. The rotating rod mounting hole 23 is installed in the center of the wave-breaking plate 21 through a bearing, and fits tightly with the rotating rod 24 to ensure that the rotating rod is stable and does not shake during rotation. This design not only enhances the supporting force of the rotating rod 24, but also reduces the noise and vibration generated by rotation, thereby improving the comfort of use of the entire fumigator.
[0101] As an optional embodiment of the present invention, optionally, a heat-insulating layer 20 is provided on the inner wall of the heat-insulating rod 8 .
[0102] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, insulation layer 20 is mounted on the inner wall of insulation rod 8 and is made of high-efficiency insulation materials, such as vacuum insulation panels or aerogel. These materials have excellent thermal insulation properties, effectively reducing heat loss during transmission and ensuring that water vapor maintains a high temperature as it flows through insulation rod 8, thereby improving the therapeutic effect. The presence of insulation layer 20 allows the fumigator to maintain a stable heating effect during long-term use, avoiding patient discomfort caused by temperature fluctuations. Furthermore, insulation layer 20 also has certain corrosion and wear resistance, which can extend the service life of insulation rod 8 and reduce maintenance costs.
[0103] Example 2
[0104] A method for using a traditional Chinese medicine fumigator for treating spleen and stomach, comprising the fumigator; the method further comprising:
[0105] S1. Add Chinese medicine and water into the heating furnace 3, close the sealing cover 5, and control the driver 15 and the heater 2 to start simultaneously. The power of the heater 2 is adjusted to the maximum. The rotating rod 24 and the paddle 25 connected to the driver 15 rotate synchronously to stir the Chinese medicine and water in the heating furnace 3. When the preset time of the timing module is reached, the driver 15 stops working.
[0106] S2. Have the patient lie on the treatment bed, adjust the height of the heat preservation rod 8 by adjusting the nut 13, and then place the sealing cover 12 on the patient's spleen and stomach;
[0107] S3, the temperature acquisition module in the heating furnace 3 collects the temperature in the heating furnace 3 in real time. When the temperature in the heating furnace 3 reaches the boiling point, the control module reduces the power of the heater 2 and opens the solenoid valve 7 and the fan 16. At the same time, the heater 2 continues to provide a stable heat source for the heating furnace 3, ensuring that the Chinese medicine water can be continuously heated and converted into water vapor; under the action of the fan 16, the water vapor enters the connecting pipe 19 through the air outlet 6, and is then evenly distributed to the air flow box 11 through the shunt pipe 10, and then continuously fumigates the spleen and stomach of the patient through the sealing cover 12;
[0108] S4. During the fumigation treatment, the liquid level acquisition module monitors the amount of Chinese medicine water in the heating furnace 3 in real time. When the amount of Chinese medicine water is lower than the preset warning line, the alarm module will immediately send out an audible and optical signal to remind medical staff to add water in time;
[0109] S5. As the treatment progresses, the control module will automatically adjust the power of the heater 2 according to the data fed back by the temperature acquisition module in the airflow box 11 to keep the temperature in the heating furnace 3 stable within the optimal fumigation temperature range; at the same time, the fan 16 will also start as needed to inject an appropriate amount of air into the connecting pipe 19 through the gas one-way valve to help the water vapor to be better distributed and flowed;
[0110] S6. During the fumigation treatment, the display module 14 displays the current treatment status in real time, including the temperature in the heating furnace 3, the temperature in the airflow box 11, the amount of Chinese medicine water and the fumigation time; the timing module is also used to record the treatment time;
[0111] S7. When the fumigation treatment is completed, the control module automatically turns off the heater 2 and the electromagnetic valve 7 to stop the heating and fumigation process of the Chinese medicine water.
[0112] It should be noted that the Chinese medicine and water in heating furnace 3 are thoroughly mixed under stirring, ensuring that the active ingredients in the herbs are evenly dissolved in the water. With heater 2 operating at full capacity, the temperature within the furnace rises rapidly, providing sufficient thermal energy for the generation of water vapor. When the timing module reaches the preset time, driver 15 automatically stops operating and continues heating until the mixture of Chinese medicine and water reaches the desired heated state (boiling point), preparing for subsequent fumigation treatment.
[0113] The control module then adjusts the power of heater 2 to a maintenance setting to maintain a stable temperature inside the furnace, and simultaneously activates fan 16. Under precise control by the control module, fan 16 operates at an appropriate speed, drawing in outside air through the small openings, passing through a gas check valve into connecting pipe 19, and then into airflow box 11. This process not only provides sufficient power for the transmission of water vapor but also prevents external impurities from entering the fumigation system, maintaining a pure and safe treatment environment.
[0114] As water vapor is continuously generated and delivered by the fan into the airflow box 11, it is then transported through the heat-insulating rod 8 into the sealed cover 12, where it adheres tightly to the patient. The counterweight design at the bottom of the sealed cover 12 ensures its stability during treatment, preventing displacement caused by airflow or patient movement, thereby ensuring uniform distribution of the water vapor and maximizing the therapeutic effect. Furthermore, the insulation layer 20 on the inner wall of the heat-insulating rod 8 effectively reduces heat loss, keeping the water vapor at a high temperature during transport, further enhancing the therapeutic effect.
[0115] During treatment, medical staff can flexibly adjust the speed of fan 16 through the control module based on the patient's specific condition and desired treatment effect. When rapid heating or enhanced treatment effectiveness is required, fan 16 speed can be increased, allowing the steam to cover the patient's body more quickly and evenly. When maintaining a stable temperature or reducing treatment intensity is necessary, fan 16 speed is reduced accordingly. This intelligent adjustment method not only improves treatment efficiency but also ensures comfort and safety.
[0116] After treatment is complete, the control module automatically turns off heater 2 and fan 16 and sounds a warning tone to inform the medical staff and patient that treatment is complete. At this point, the medical staff can remove the remaining Chinese medicinal liquid from the heating furnace 3 through the exhaust port 18 for proper disposal. Simultaneously, the water vapor inside the fumigator will gradually dissipate during the natural cooling process, preparing for the next treatment.
[0117] In summary, the application method of the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) spleen and stomach treatment fumigator of this embodiment achieves uniform heating of TCM liquid and efficient fumigation therapy through a series of carefully designed structures and intelligent control methods. This fumigator not only improves treatment efficacy and comfort, but also ensures the safety and reliability of the treatment process, bringing a new and highly effective treatment method to the field of TCM spleen and stomach treatment.
