Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a treatment device that integrates auricular acupoint massage and moxibustion. Background Technology

[0002] In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory, numerous acupoints exist on the human ear, and these acupoints are closely connected to various internal organs. Stimulating these ear acupoints can regulate the flow of Qi and blood through the meridians, thereby achieving therapeutic and health-preserving effects. Common methods of ear acupoint stimulation include massage and moxibustion. Traditional ear acupressure massage often relies on manual techniques, which are cumbersome and difficult to maintain consistent massage intensity and frequency. Furthermore, it is labor-intensive. While ear massagers exist, their massage heads are fixed in position and cannot be adjusted for targeted acupressure. They also cannot be used for moxibustion. Traditional moxibustion, when applied to the ear, requires frequent adjustments by medical staff as the moxa stick burns, increasing their workload and the risk of burns to both patients and staff. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a device that allows for adjustable massage positions, targeted vibration massage of ear acupoints, and simultaneous moxibustion, without the need for frequent moxa stick adjustments to meet clinical needs. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention aims to provide an integrated treatment device for auricular acupoint massage and moxibustion, in order to solve the problems of current massage devices being unable to adjust the position of the massage head and the need to frequently adjust the position of the moxa cone during moxibustion.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A device integrating auricular acupoint massage and moxibustion includes an elastic frame and an earmuff body. Earmuff bodies are located at both ends of the elastic frame. A partition frame is installed inside each earmuff body. A moxibustion component and an adjustment component are respectively installed on the earmuff body. The moxibustion component is located on one side of the earmuff body and includes a storage base and a top cover. The top surface of the top cover is connected to one end of a plastic tube, and the other end of the plastic tube is connected to the earmuff body. The top cover is mounted on the storage base, which contains multiple sets of elastic clips that hold and fix the moxa stick. A grid plate is located at one end of the storage base, and a top block is mounted on the grid plate. The top block contacts one end of the moxa stick, and the other end of the moxa stick contacts a push plate. The push plate is located at one end of a push rod, which passes through the other end of the storage base. A return spring is sleeved on the push rod. The adjustment assembly includes a movable frame and a movable platform. Both ends of the movable frame are slidably mounted in grooves. Grooves are provided on the earcup body frame and the divider frame. A first lead screw passes through the earcup body and is threaded into the movable frame. A second lead screw passes through the movable frame and is threaded into the movable platform. The movable platform is slidably mounted within the movable frame. A movable plate and a compression spring are mounted inside the movable platform. A screw is provided on one side of the movable plate and passes through a threaded sleeve at one end of the movable platform. The other side of the movable plate contacts one end of the compression spring, and the other end of the compression spring contacts a movable column. A miniature electric vibration massage head is mounted at the end of the movable column.

[0006] Furthermore, side plates are provided on both sides of the top cover, and several ventilation openings are provided on the side plates. Baffles are slidably installed in the cavities inside the side plates, and the positions of the baffles and ventilation openings correspond to each other. The two sets of side plates are respectively locked on both sides of the storage base.

[0007] Furthermore, a positioning pin and a positioning spring are respectively installed inside the storage seat. The positioning spring is connected to one end of the positioning pin, and the other end of the positioning pin passes through the storage seat and is installed inside the side plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a flexible pad and a fixing frame are provided on one side of the earcup body, a soft pad is provided on one side of the fixing frame, and the other side of the frame contacts the edge of the flexible pad and is provided with several fixing posts. A magnetic block is provided at the end of the fixing post, and the fixing post passes through the edge of the flexible pad and is inserted into the earcup body.

[0009] Furthermore, a protective cover is fitted on the other side of the earmuff body, and the protective cover is located on one side of the moxibustion component.

[0010] Furthermore, the elastic frame includes a main arc plate and two sets of secondary arc plates. One end of the secondary arc plate is connected to the earcup body, and the other end passes through the main arc plate. Fixing bolts are provided on the main arc plate, and the fixing bolts are in contact with the surface of the secondary arc plate.

[0011] The principles and beneficial effects of the technical solution are as follows:

[0012] This invention provides an integrated auricular acupoint massage and moxibustion treatment device. By adjusting the first and second lead screws, the position of the moving frame and moving platform can be changed, thereby adjusting the position of the micro-electric vibrating massage head to align with the corresponding acupoints on the patient's ear. Then, rotating the threaded sleeve drives the screw through the threaded transmission to move the moving plate, causing the compression spring to be tightened or loosened, changing the elastic force provided to the moving column, and thus changing the massage intensity of the micro-electric vibrating massage head. This allows the device to be adjusted according to the patient's needs to achieve targeted massage. The moxa stick can be fixedly stored by the storage seat and elastic clamp. When the moxa stick burns and shortens, under the action of the return spring, the push plate on the push rod always presses against the tail end of the moxa stick, so that the burning end always contacts the top block, thereby ensuring that the distance between the heat source and the patient's ear remains the same. This eliminates the need for medical staff to frequently adjust the position of the moxa stick, reducing their burden and preventing burns to the patient or medical staff.

[0020] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0021] like Figures 1-6As shown, an integrated auricular acupoint massage and moxibustion treatment device includes an elastic frame 1 and an earmuff body 2. The earmuff body 2 is mounted on both ends of the elastic frame 1. A partition frame 201 is installed inside the earmuff body 2, dividing the cavity inside the earmuff body 2 into multiple smaller cavities corresponding to different areas of the ear. A moxibustion component 4 and an adjustment component 5 are respectively mounted on the earmuff body 2. The moxibustion component 4 is located on one side of the earmuff body 2 and includes a storage base 401 and a top cover 402. The top surface of the top cover 402 is connected to one end of a plastic tube 3, and the other end of the plastic tube 3 is connected to the earmuff body 2. The plastic tube 3 can be bent freely and maintain its bent shape. The shape of the moxibustion component 4 allows the user to freely adjust its position relative to the earmuff body 2, facilitating moxibustion on the patient's ear. The top cover 402 is mounted on the storage base 401, which contains multiple sets of elastic clips 408. These clips hold and fix the moxa stick 6. The clips 408 are made of metal, are heat-resistant, and have a smooth inner surface, allowing the moxa stick 6 to move along its axis when pushed. A mesh plate 406 is located at one end of the storage base 401, with a top block 407 on it. The top block 407 contacts one end of the moxa stick 6. The mesh plate 406 allows the heat emitted by the moxa stick 6 to pass through easily, reducing heat loss. The top block 407 is conical, with a small contact area with the burning end of the moxa stick 6, so it will not affect the combustion of the moxa stick 6. Its position can be limited to ensure that there is a certain gap between the burning end of the moxa stick 6 and the grid plate 406, so as to prevent it from completely sticking to the grid plate 406, affecting the combustion of the moxa stick 6, or even causing it to go out. The other end of the moxa stick 6 contacts the push plate 411, which is set at one end of the push rod 412. The push rod 412 passes through the other end of the storage base 401. A return spring 413 is sleeved on the push rod 412. The elastic force provided by the return spring 413 is moderate, so as not to make the moxa stick 6 press too hard against the top block. On 407, this causes the moxa stick 6 to deform, affecting its use; the adjustment component 5 includes a movable frame 501 and a movable platform 502. Both ends of the movable frame 501 are slidably set in the slide groove 202. The earmuff body 2 frame and the partition frame 201 are both provided with slide grooves 202. A first screw rod 503 is inserted into the earmuff body 2. The first screw rod 503 is inserted into the movable frame 501 and the two are threaded together. A second screw rod 504 is inserted into the movable frame 501 and the two are threaded together. The tail end of the second screw rod 504 passes through the through groove on the earmuff body 2 and is located outside the earmuff body 2, making it convenient for the user to adjust.The movable platform 502 is slidably disposed within the movable frame 501. A movable plate 507 and a compression spring 508 are respectively installed inside the movable platform 502. A screw 506 is provided on one side of the movable plate 507, passing through a threaded sleeve 505. The threaded sleeve 505 passes through one end of the movable platform 502. The other side of the movable plate 507 contacts one end of the compression spring 508, and the other end of the compression spring 508 contacts a movable column 509. The movable column 509 passes through the other end of the movable platform 502, and a miniature electric vibration massage head 510 is installed at the end of the movable column 509. The miniature electric vibration massage head 510 drives the contacts to vibrate through its internal miniature linear vibration motor, thereby achieving vibration massage.

[0022] In use, first adjust the elastic frame 1 to fit the patient's head size so that the earmuff body 2 just covers the patient's ear. After wearing the earmuff body 2 on the patient's ear, rotate the first lead screw 503 in the corresponding area to move the moving frame 501 within the slide groove 202, according to the acupoints to be massaged. Then rotate the second lead screw 504 to move the moving stage 502 on the moving frame 501, changing the position of the micro electric vibration massage head 510 so that it can perform fixed-point movement and linear displacement in a plane, thereby aligning it with the acupoints on the patient's ear. For targeted massage, once the planar position is adjusted, the pressure of the miniature electric vibration massage head 510 on the acupoints of the ear can be adjusted according to the patient's condition. Simply rotate the threaded sleeve 505; under threaded transmission, the screw 506 drives the moving plate 507 to move, causing the moving plate 507 to compress or release the compression spring 508. This changes the elastic force provided by the compression spring 508, requiring greater or less resistance when pushing the moving column 509 into the moving platform 502, thus adjusting the pressure applied by the miniature electric vibration massage head 510 to the patient's ear. The device allows for multiple adjustments to the intensity of massage, enabling targeted massage of acupoints on the ear and providing different intensities depending on the patient's condition. After the massage is adjusted, medical personnel first pull the push rod 412 to place the lit moxa stick 6 into the storage base 401, where it is held in place by the elastic clamp 408. Then, the push rod 412 is released, and under the action of the return spring 413, the push plate 411 on the push rod 412 abuts against the tail end of the moxa stick 6, causing its burning end to contact the top block 407 on the grid plate 406, thus ensuring that the burning end is always positioned at the grid plate 406. To prevent the moxa stick 6 from gradually moving away from the grid plate 406 due to shortening of the burning length, which would cause a change in the distance between the moxa stick 6 and the patient's ear, after placing the moxa stick 6, the storage base 401 and the top cover 402 are fastened together. By bending the plastic tube 3, the position of the storage base 401 is adjusted so that it is at a suitable distance on one side of the earmuff body 2, so as to facilitate moxibustion on the patient's ear. Compared with traditional moxibustion, medical staff do not need to frequently adjust the position of the moxa stick 6, which can effectively avoid burns to patients and medical staff. In addition, moxibustion can be performed simultaneously with massage, with a shorter treatment time and better effect.

[0023] In this embodiment, side plates 403 are provided on both sides of the top cover 402. Several ventilation openings 404 are provided on the side plates 403. Baffles 405 are slidably disposed within the cavities of the side plates 403, with the positions of the baffles 405 corresponding to the ventilation openings 404. The two sets of side plates 403 are respectively secured to both sides of the storage base 401. By adjusting the position of the baffles 405, the number of ventilation openings 404 is changed, altering the air intake speed within the storage base 401, thereby changing the burning speed of the moxa stick 6 to suit different treatment durations.

[0024] In this embodiment, a positioning pin 409 and a positioning spring 410 are respectively installed inside the storage base 401. The positioning spring 410 is connected to one end of the positioning pin 409, and the other end of the positioning pin 409 passes through the storage base 401 and is installed inside the side plate 403. After the side plate 403 on the top cover 402 is inserted into the storage base 401, the positioning pin 409 is engaged in the side plate 403 under the action of the positioning spring 410, locking the side plate 403 in place, thereby fixing the top cover 402 to the storage base 401. When disassembling, it is only necessary to pull the positioning pin 409 to remove it from the side plate 403. The operation is simple and convenient.

[0025] In this embodiment, a flexible pad 203 and a fixing frame 204 are provided on one side of the earmuff body 2. A soft pad is provided on one side of the fixing frame 204, and the other side contacts the edge of the flexible pad 203 and is provided with several fixing posts 205. A magnetic block 206 is provided at the end of the fixing post 205. The fixing post 205 passes through the edge of the flexible pad 203 and is inserted into the earmuff body 2. The flexible pad 203 is in direct contact with the patient's ear, providing a gentler touch and improving the comfort of the device. It is also pressed and fixed by the fixing frame 204 and the magnetic block 206. When disassembling, the fixing frame 204 needs to be removed to remove the flexible pad 203, which is convenient for replacement, cleaning and disinfection.

[0026] In this embodiment, a protective cover 207 is fitted on the other side of the earmuff body 2, and the protective cover 207 is located on one side of the moxibustion component 4. The protective cover 207 can cover the outside of the earmuff body 2 to prevent its internal components from being exposed and easily damaged. In addition, the protective cover 207 has a certain heat insulation effect, and the heat transferred is moderate, which can prevent the high temperature of moxibustion from burning the patient's ear skin.

[0027] In this embodiment, the elastic frame 1 includes a main arc-shaped plate 101 and two sets of secondary arc-shaped plates 102. One end of the secondary arc-shaped plate 102 is connected to the earmuff body 2, and the other end passes through the main arc-shaped plate 101. A fixing bolt 103 is provided on the main arc-shaped plate 101, and the fixing bolt 103 contacts the surface of the secondary arc-shaped plate 102. Both the main arc-shaped plate 101 and the secondary arc-shaped plates 102 have a certain degree of elasticity. By changing the length of the two sets of secondary arc-shaped plates 102 extending out of the main arc-shaped plate 101, the size of the entire elastic frame 1 can be adjusted to accommodate patients with different head sizes, so that the earmuff body 2 can fit better in the patient's ear, avoiding the situation where the elastic frame 1 is too tight, causing excessive pressure and discomfort to the patient, or the elastic frame 1 is too loose, causing the patient to wear it unstablely.
