Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical devices for traditional Chinese medicine, and more specifically, to a bed-mounted traditional Chinese medicine fumigation and washing device. Background Technology

[0002] Fumigation and washing therapy is a treatment method that uses a decoction of herbs, heated and then applied to the skin or affected area for fumigation or washing (generally, the decoction is used for fumigation first, and then the skin is washed when the liquid has cooled to a warm temperature). This therapy utilizes the power of the medicine and heat to act on the body through the skin and mucous membranes, promoting the opening of pores, harmonizing the meridians, and smoothing the flow of qi and blood, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing and treating diseases.

[0003] Fumigation therapy can be divided into two types: whole-body fumigation and local fumigation. Foot fumigation is one type of local fumigation. When performing foot fumigation treatment on bedridden patients, clinically, the prescription of medicine determined according to the symptoms is first decocted into a soup. Then, while the soup is still hot, it is divided into two heat-resistant transparent bags. A towel is placed inside the transparent bag and applied to the instep of the patient's foot to slow down the rate at which the soup cools down. The transparent bag is then tied to the patient's calf with a rope, and the patient's feet are then fumigated with traditional Chinese medicine.

[0004] The above technical solution has the following defects during use:

[0005] (1) When binding the transparent bag to the patient's leg, multiple people need to work together. One person lifts the bag opening and attaches it to the patient's leg, while another person holds the rope with both hands to bind it.

[0006] (2) When using a rope to fix the transparent bag, it is inconvenient to adjust the tightness of the rope. If it is tied too tightly, it will affect blood circulation. If it is tied too loosely, it will not be able to ensure that the transparent bag is stably fixed to the patient's legs during the fumigation process.

[0007] (3) Traditional Chinese medicine fumigation requires a specific temperature range to ensure efficacy and patient comfort. Too high a temperature may burn the patient, while too low a temperature will affect drug penetration. Transparent bags cannot maintain a constant fumigation temperature, and the herbal decoction inside the bag can easily dissipate heat.

[0008] (4) During the fumigation process, in order to prevent the medicinal soup from flowing out of the bag, the patient needs to keep his knees bent for a long time, which can easily cause numbness in the patient's legs.

[0009] In addition, existing foot bath devices are bulky, heavy, and take up a lot of space, making them unsuitable for scenarios with limited hospital bed space. Furthermore, their complex internal structure requires a lot of time and effort to clean and makes thorough cleaning difficult.

[0010] Therefore, the present invention proposes a bedside herbal fumigation and washing device. Summary of the Invention

[0011] This invention provides a bedside herbal fumigation and washing device to solve the technical problems of existing bedside fumigation and washing devices, such as inconvenience in fixing, difficulty in adjusting the tightness of the fixing, and inability to maintain a constant fumigation and washing temperature.

[0012] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0013] A bedside herbal fumigation and washing device includes a pair of shoe soles and a boot body with a top of the shoe soles. A disposable herbal bath bag is movably fitted inside the boot body. The opening of the herbal bath bag is symmetrically provided with secondary ears. The top of the boot body is symmetrically provided with hooks. An elastic rope that wraps around the opening of the herbal bath bag is threaded through the opening of the bag by a spring buckle. A constant temperature electric heating plate is embedded in the shoe sole.

[0014] Technical Solution Principle: First, the medicated bath bag is fitted onto the boot. The auxiliary loops of the medicated bath bag are hooked into the clips. The medicinal decoction is poured into the medicated bath bag, preventing the bag opening from falling into the boot. Holding the boot, the patient, lying on the bed, inserts both feet into the medicated bath bag inside the boot. The tension of the elastic cord can be quickly adjusted using spring clips. With the help of the clips, the medicated bath bag can be secured without the need for multiple people, ensuring the bag opening is stably fixed to the patient's legs and preventing leakage. This solves the problems of inconvenient fixation and difficulty in adjusting the tightness of existing fumigation devices. Turning on the switch of the constant-temperature heating plate raises the temperature inside the boot, thus solving the problem of existing technologies being unable to maintain a constant fumigation temperature.

[0015] Preferably, the inner wall of the boot is provided with an air bladder, and the air bladder is connected to an inflatable ball extending out of the boot.

[0016] By squeezing the inflation ball, the airbag can be inflated to fill the gap between the medicated bath bag and the boot, preventing the air inside the boot from circulating with the outside air, thus preventing heat loss and saving energy.

[0017] Preferably, the multi-layer composite structure of the boot body includes, from the outside to the inside, an outer layer, a thermal insulation layer, and a waterproof layer.

[0018] The installation of an insulation layer can further delay the loss of heat.

[0019] Preferably, the hook is slidably engaged with a limiting block near the side of the boot body by a spring, and both sides of the limiting block near the end of the boot body are beveled.

[0020] This prevents the accessory ear from detaching from the hook due to the patient's movement, as the medicated bath bag, which is not tied to the patient's leg with an elastic cord, can be effectively restrained.

[0021] Preferably, the two sole plates are detachably mounted with a fixing assembly, which includes a mounting base and a forward / reverse motor fixed to the side of the mounting base. The mounting base is symmetrically slidably engaged with sliders in the horizontal and vertical directions, and a mounting plate is rotatably engaged between the four sliders. Connecting plates are symmetrically rotatably engaged on both sides of the middle of the mounting plate. The free ends of the two connecting plates are provided with a first rotating shaft that is fixedly connected to the output end of the forward / reverse motor. The connecting plates are rotatably engaged with the mounting base through the first rotating shaft.

[0022] The above technical solution enables patients to passively flex their knees, thus assisting them in exercise. When the forward and reverse motors are activated, and the motors drive the rotating shaft to rotate counter-clockwise, the connecting plate rotates counter-clockwise around the first rotating shaft. This pushes the horizontally sliding slider away from the motors and the vertically sliding slider towards them. Simultaneously, the mounting plate moves closer to the patient's body, and the angle between the mounting plate and the horizontal direction continuously decreases. When the forward and reverse motors drive the rotating shaft to rotate clockwise, the connecting plate rotates clockwise around the first rotating shaft. This pushes the horizontally sliding slider towards the motors and the vertically sliding slider away from them. This moves the mounting plate away from the patient's body, and the angle between the mounting plate and the horizontal direction continuously increases, thus inducing passive knee flexion and achieving the purpose of exercise.

[0023] Preferably, the mounting base is provided with a slide groove for the slider to slide, and the slide groove is provided with a stop block away from the first rotating shaft.

[0024] The stop block can limit the movement of the slider.

[0025] Preferably, a massage assembly is provided in the cavity of the sole plate. The massage assembly includes several massage rods passing through the top of the sole plate. The massage rods are slidably connected to the sole plate through sleeved springs. The bottom of the massage rods is rotatably engaged with a pulley. One end of the sole plate is sealed and slidably engaged with a push plate. The end of the push plate located inside the sole plate is provided with an inclined surface that contacts the pulley. The push plate located outside the sole plate is detachably connected to a rack that is slidably engaged with a mounting plate. The rack meshes with a gear.

[0026] The above-described technical solution is designed to massage the patient's feet. A gear rotating in the forward direction drives a rack to move back and forth along the boot, thereby propelling the massage rod to move repeatedly along a direction perpendicular to the sole, thus massaging the patient's feet and promoting blood circulation.

[0027] Preferably, the two gears are connected to a second rotating shaft, and the gears are rotatably engaged with the mounting plate via the second rotating shaft. A third rotating shaft is rotatably engaged with the middle of the mounting plate. Synchronous belts are provided between the first rotating shaft and the third rotating shaft, as well as between the second rotating shaft and the third rotating shaft, via rotating wheels.

[0028] Through the ingenious design of the above scheme, passive exercise and massage can be combined. The forward and reverse motors drive the first rotating shaft to rotate in both directions, and the synchronous belt drives the second rotating shaft to rotate in the forward direction, which in turn drives the gear to rotate in the forward direction, thereby achieving massage of the patient's feet and promoting blood circulation.

[0029] Preferably, the top of the push plate is provided with several "V-shaped" grooves corresponding to the massage rod.

[0030] The above design allows the massage stick to provide intermittent massage.

[0031] Preferably, the slopes of the two inclined surfaces of the "V-shaped" groove are the same or different, and the slopes of two adjacent "V-shaped" grooves are the same or different.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0033] 1. The present invention, through the design of hooks, bath bags, elastic ropes and constant temperature heating plates on the boot body, can solve the technical problems of inconvenient fixing, inconvenient adjustment of the tightness of fixing and inability to maintain a constant fumigation temperature in the prior art.

[0034] 2. The linkage design of the fixing component and the massage component of this invention can cleverly realize the purpose of a positive and negative motor driving the patient to passively exercise and simultaneously massaging the patient's feet. Attached Figure Description

[0045] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0046] Example 1

[0047] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a bedside herbal fumigation and washing device includes a pair of shoe soles 1 and a boot body 2 with the top of the shoe soles 1. To prevent cross-infection during fumigation and washing of different patients, a disposable herbal bath bag 3 is movably fitted inside the boot body 2, with the opening of the herbal bath bag 3 turned inside out onto the surface of the boot body 2. The boot body 2 includes a straight section and an irregularly shaped section. To facilitate pouring the herbal decoction into the herbal bath bag 3, the inner diameter of the top of the straight section of the boot body 2 is larger than the inner diameter of the bottom of the straight section. To prevent the opening of the herbal bath bag 3 from falling into the boot body 2 due to the pouring of the herbal decoction, hooks 5 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the boot body 2, and the auxiliary ears 4 connected to the opening of the herbal bath bag 3 can be hung in the hooks 5. To prevent the temperature of the herbal decoction inside the herbal bath bag 3 from dissipating too quickly, an elastic rope 6 is threaded around the opening of the herbal bath bag 3 and extends to the outside of the herbal bath bag 3. The combined design of the hooks 5 and the elastic rope 6 solves the problem of requiring multiple people to work together to fix the herbal bath bag 3. To facilitate adjustment of the tension of the elastic cord 6, spring clips can be threaded through both ends of the elastic cord 6, and the elastic cord 6 is located above the boot body 2. The spring clips are existing technology. The elastic cord 6 can stably fix the medicated bath bag 3 to the patient's leg. To further solve the problem of the rapid loss of temperature of the medicated bath solution inside the medicated bath bag 3, a constant temperature electric heating plate 7 is embedded in the sole plate 1.

[0048] Based on the above solution, an air bladder 8 is provided on the inner wall near the top of the boot body 2. The air bladder 8 is connected to an inflatable ball 9 extending outside the boot body 2. The inflatable ball 9 is existing technology. By squeezing the inflatable ball 9, the gas inside the inflatable ball 9 enters the air bladder 8, thereby filling the gap between the medicated bath bag 3 and the top of the boot body 2. This prevents the heat inside the boot body 2 from escaping. In addition, the inflatable ball 9 is also provided with an exhaust port.

[0049] Based on the above scheme, both the upper and the boot body 2 are multi-layer composite structures, including an outer layer 27, an insulation layer 28 and a waterproof layer 29 from the outside to the inside.

[0050] To prevent the accessory ear 4 of the bath bag 3 from detaching from the hook 5, a limiting block 10 is slidably engaged with the side of the hook 5 near the boot body 2 by a spring. The side of the limiting block 10 near the end of the boot body 2 is all beveled.

[0051] Specific usage of the above embodiments:

[0052] First, the medicated bath bag 3 is fitted onto the boot body 2, and the accessory ear 4 of the medicated bath bag 3 is hooked into the hook 5. Then, the medicinal decoction is poured into the medicated bath bag 3. Medical staff hold the boot body 2, and the patient, lying on the bed, places both feet into the medicated bath bag 3 inside the boot body 2. The tension of the elastic cord 6 can be adjusted by one person using a spring-loaded buckle, ensuring the opening of the medicated bath bag 3 is stably fixed to the patient's legs and preventing leakage of the medicinal decoction. This solves the problems of inconvenient fixation and difficulty in adjusting the tightness of the fixation of the fumigation device. Next, the inflation balloon 9 is squeezed to inflate the air bladder 8, filling the gap between the medicated bath bag 3 and the boot body 2. Finally, by turning on the electric switch of the constant-temperature heating plate 7 embedded in the sole plate 1, the problem of maintaining a constant fumigation temperature in existing technologies is solved.

[0053] In addition, to facilitate observation of the temperature inside the boot body 2, a temperature display can be installed on the surface of the sole plate 1 or the boot body 2, and the temperature inside the boot body 2 can be viewed in real time by connecting a temperature sensor.

[0054] Example 2

[0055] like Figure 5As shown, to facilitate patient use in bed while preventing prolonged knee flexion that could lead to leg numbness, a fixing assembly is detachably installed on the sole plate 1, based on Embodiment 1. The fixing assembly includes a mounting base 14 and a forward / reverse motor 11 fixed to the side of the mounting base 14. The mounting base 14 includes a fixing plate and vertical plates symmetrically arranged on both sides of the end of the fixing plate. The forward / reverse motor 11 is located at the junction of the fixing plate and the vertical plates. Slider 12s are symmetrically slidably engaged with the mounting base 14 along its horizontal and vertical directions via the fixing plate and the vertical plates, respectively. A mounting plate 13 is rotatably engaged with the four sliders 12. Connecting plates 15 are symmetrically rotatably engaged with the two sides of the middle portion of the mounting plate 13. A first rotating shaft 16, fixedly connected to the output end of the forward / reverse motor 11, passes through the free ends of the two connecting plates 15. The connecting plates 15 are rotatably engaged with the mounting base 14 via the first rotating shaft 16.

[0056] Mounting base 14 is provided with a slide groove 17 for sliding slider 12, and a stop block 18 is provided at the end of slide groove 17 away from the motor.

[0057] How the fixed components work:

[0058] The patient, lying flat on the bed, places their legs inside the medicated bath bag 3 within the boot body 2. The forward and reverse motor 11 is activated. When the motor 11 drives the rotating shaft to rotate counterclockwise, it causes the connecting plate 15 to rotate counterclockwise around the first rotating shaft 16. This pushes the horizontally sliding slider 12 away from the motor 11 and the vertically sliding slider 12 towards the motor 11, causing the mounting plate 13 to move closer to the patient's body while simultaneously decreasing the angle between the mounting plate 13 and the horizontal direction. When the motor 11 drives the rotating shaft to rotate clockwise, it causes the connecting plate 15 to rotate clockwise around the first rotating shaft 16. This pushes the horizontally sliding slider 12 towards the motor 11 and the vertically sliding slider 12 away from the motor 11, causing the mounting plate 13 to move away from the patient's body while simultaneously increasing the angle between the mounting plate 13 and the horizontal direction. This induces passive knee flexion movements in the patient, achieving the purpose of exercise.

[0059] Example 3

[0060] like Figures 6 to 8As shown, to promote blood circulation in patients during bed fumigation, based on Example 2, a massage component is provided in the cavity of the sole plate 1. The massage component includes several massage rods 19 that are slidably connected to the sole plate 1 and extend upward to the outside of the sole plate 1. The massage rods 19 in the cavity are fitted with springs. The bottom of the massage rods 19 is rotatably engaged with a pulley 20. One end of the sole plate 1 is sealed and slidably engaged with a push plate. The end of the push plate located inside the sole plate 1 is provided with an inclined surface. The push plate located outside the sole plate 1 is detachably connected to a rack 21 that is slidably engaged with the mounting plate 13. The rack 21 is engaged with a gear 22.

[0061] As a preferred embodiment of the above solution, the top of the push plate is provided with several "V-shaped" grooves 26 corresponding to the massage rod 19. The slopes of each "V-shaped" groove 26 may be the same or different, so that the massage force of the massage rod 19 may be the same or different.

[0062] As a preferred embodiment of the above scheme, two gears 22 are connected to a second rotating shaft 23, and the gears 22 are rotatably engaged with the mounting plate 13 through the second rotating shaft 23. A third rotating shaft 24 is rotatably engaged in the middle of the mounting plate 13. Synchronous belts 25 are provided between the first rotating shaft 16 and the third rotating shaft 24, as well as between the second rotating shaft 23 and the third rotating shaft 24, through rotating wheels.

[0063] The working principle of the massage component: The forward and reverse motor 11 can drive the first rotating shaft 16 to rotate in both directions. Under the action of the synchronous belt 25, it can drive the second rotating shaft 23 to rotate in the forward direction, which in turn drives the gear 22 to rotate in the forward direction. This drives the rack 21 to move back and forth along the direction of the boot body 2, thereby pushing the massage rod 19 to move repeatedly in the direction perpendicular to the sole plate 1, thereby massaging the patient's feet and promoting blood circulation.

[0064] Furthermore, it should be noted that the shape of the connection between the push plate and the toothed rack 21 is adapted to the end of the sole plate 1 near the push plate, so that when the boot body 2 is used independently without the toothed rack 21, the push plate is completely hidden inside the sole plate 1. The top of the toothed rack 21 is higher than the top of the push plate, which can play a limiting role when the push plate massages.

[0065] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of the present invention, and common knowledge such as specific technical solutions and / or characteristics are not described in detail here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the technical solutions of the present invention, and these should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention. These modifications and improvements will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of the present invention or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application should be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
