Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention patent belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically a wearable dynamic meridian information detection device based on multiple acupoints of the human body. Background Technology

[0002] Meridians, Qi and Blood, and Zang-Fu organs are the three core categories of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), around which all TCM knowledge forms a complete system. The function of meridians is a network for the transmission and regulation of life information. Although their existence differs from physical structures like blood vessels and nerves, biophysical research has discovered that physical signals such as sound, light, heat, electricity, and magnetism can be detected along the meridian pathways on the body surface. These signals contain information about the body's physiology, pathology, and environmental influences. Interpreting the meaning of this information will provide guidance for understanding the laws governing life processes and disease prevention and treatment.

[0003] Based on the *Huangdi Neijing* (Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic) and the empirical research findings of modern scholars, this study uses the Jing-Well and Yuan-Source points along the twelve regular meridians, the eight extraordinary meridians, and the meridian pathways as data collection points for electrical impedance information. The analysis method is based on the Eight Principles of Differentiation, combined with systems science principles, and integrates human and machine learning, prioritizing human input. It comprehensively integrates both definitive and uncertain information to form a relatively reliable reference interpretation. A networked, non-contact detection technology is employed, avoiding the adverse effects of data drift and surface polarization phenomena inherent in traditional meridian detection. This allows for convenient and accurate detection of bioelectrical signals at acupoints along the twelve meridians, thus providing effective data for disease diagnosis. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this invention, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0029] Please see Figure 2-10This invention patent provides a technical solution: a wearable dynamic meridian information detection device based on multiple acupoints of the human body, including left and right high-elastic glove bodies (1), left and right five-finger high-elastic sock bodies (2), electrode plates (3), connection ports (4), and a control unit; each of the high-elastic glove bodies is provided with 22 spherical electrodes; the position of each spherical electrode corresponds to the meridian acupoints of the human hand (to the wrist); each of the five-finger high-elastic sock bodies is provided with 22 spherical electrodes; the position of each spherical electrode corresponds to the meridian acupoints of the human foot (to the calf); the size of the high-elastic glove (1) and the high-elastic sock body (2) is adapted to the hands and feet of the person being tested; the spherical electrode sites are connected to the reserved connection ports through electrode connecting wires, and are connected to the control unit through the reserved connection ports, so that the host can collect relevant meridian acupoint information. The technical solution provided by this invention patent can conveniently and accurately detect the bioelectric signals of the acupoints of the twelve meridians of the human body, thereby providing effective data for the diagnosis of diseases.

[0030] Further reading Figure 4-9 In this example, five-finger socks and gloves are used for positioning, which makes the acupoints more accurately fixed and the signal acquisition more accurate. In terms of acupoint bioelectric signal acquisition, since the electrodes are connected by wires, only the control unit and the reserved wiring port need to be connected to simultaneously collect 22 acupoints on the hands (Shaoshang (101), Laoshang (102), Shangyang (103), Ciyang (104), Zhongchong (105), Zhongze (106), Guanze (107), Guanchong (108), Shaochong (109), Shaoze (110), Taiyuan (201), Lieque (202), Hegu (203), Waiguan (204), Daling (205), Neiguan (206), Houxi (207), Yangchi (208), Shenmen (209), and Wangu (210) and the foot (Yin). The invention patent collects 22 acupoints simultaneously, including Bai (301), Dadun (302), Neilidui (303), Lidui (304), Er Neili (305), Di Er Lidui (306), Neiqiaoyin (307), Zuqiaoyin (308), Yongquan (309), Zhiyin (310), Taibai (401), Taichong (402), Gongsun (403), Chongyang (404), Shenmai (405), Zhaohai (406), Zulinqi (407), Qiuxu (408), Taixi (409), and Jinggu (410). This invention patent adopts the method of collecting acupoints from both above and below, which follows the traditional theory of meridian circulation and is more in line with the traditional Chinese medicine concept of meridians.

[0031] Further reading Figure 1 In terms of ease of operation and collection time, this invention patent collects bioelectric signals between the common electrode and acupoint through the control unit, and the simultaneous collection of upper and lower acupoints can be achieved through the host, which is more convenient and greatly shortens the time.

[0032] Further reading Figure 11The highly elastic structure combined with the spherical electrodes allows the electrode pads to make closer contact with acupoints when collecting bioelectrical signals, resulting in more accurate signal acquisition.

[0033] Working Principle: For the multi-acupoint wearable dynamic meridian information detection device, firstly, before testing, the subject washes their hands and feet, as well as the acupoints to be collected, with medical alcohol. Then, gloves and finger stockings are put on the hands and feet, allowing the user to fine-tune the acupoints to ensure a tight fit between the acupoints and electrodes. Secondly, the reserved interface is connected to the control unit, allowing the subject to relax, and the device is tested by the main unit. Finally, the bioelectrical signal information of the acupoints is collected simultaneously, the device is removed, and the device is disinfected. This allows for convenient and accurate detection of the bioelectrical signals of acupoints along the twelve meridians of the human body, thus providing effective data for disease diagnosis.
