Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a needle-winding device with disinfection function for acupuncture. Background Technology

[0002] Acupuncture is one of the core methods in traditional Chinese medicine. It regulates Qi and blood and balances Yin and Yang by stimulating specific acupoints to achieve the purpose of treating diseases and maintaining health. Among them, the Mu-point wrapping needle therapy is based on the traditional acupuncture needle, but with the following improvements: the needle body is thickened, and three woolly threads and three smooth threads are placed from the beginning of the needle body to the tip, so as to enhance the tightening and wrapping force and intensity of the needle body during the "wrapping" operation.

[0003] Traditional needle-wrapping devices rely on static immersion for disinfection. However, residual blood, tissue debris, and other organic matter on the needle surface consume the disinfectant, forming a protective layer that prevents the disinfectant from directly contacting microorganisms, resulting in incomplete disinfection. Therefore, a needle-wrapping device with disinfection function for acupuncture is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where residual blood, tissue debris, and other organic matter on the surface of needles consume disinfectant, form a protective layer, and prevent the disinfectant from directly contacting microorganisms, resulting in incomplete disinfection. Therefore, this invention proposes a needle-wrapping device with disinfection function for acupuncture.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A needle-winding device for acupuncture with a disinfection function includes a needle box. A movable plate is slidably disposed on the inner side of the needle box. A round rod is movably connected to the side of the movable plate. A round plate is installed at the end of the round rod. A needle is installed on the side of the round plate away from the round rod. A processing assembly is disposed inside the needle box. The processing assembly includes a first cylinder and a second cylinder mounted inside the needle box, a ring rotatably connected between the first and second cylinders, a pressure rod rotatably mounted between the first and second cylinders, multiple push plates movably connected to the inner side of the ring, a rotating ring rotatably connected to the inner side of the needle box, multiple fan blades mounted inside the rotating ring, a first drive unit and a second drive unit disposed inside the needle box, a liquid storage tank mounted inside the needle box, a first water pump mounted on the side of the liquid storage tank, and a first delivery pipe installed at the output end of the first water pump. The needle box is fixedly connected to the first cylinder. A collection box is installed on the side of the needle box. A second water pump is installed inside the needle box. A second delivery pipe is installed at the input end of the second water pump. The second delivery pipe is fixedly connected to the ring. After the needle is used, the first drive unit drives the first water pump and the fan blade to rotate. The wind generated by the rotation of the fan blade blows away impurities on the needle. The movable plate moves to drive the needle into the inside of the ring. The first water pump delivers the disinfectant inside the storage tank to the inside of the ring through the first delivery pipe. The second drive unit drives the ring to rotate. The rotation of the ring drives the push plate to rotate. The rotation of the push plate squeezes the pressure rod and makes it vibrate. The force generated by the rotation and vibration of the push plate drives the disinfectant to impact the needle. A heating device is installed inside the needle box. A connecting line is installed at the output end of the heating device. The connecting line is fixedly connected to the round rod.

[0006] The above technical solution further includes: A guide rod is installed on the inner side of the needle box, and the movable plate is slidably disposed on the outer side of the guide rod. A first servo motor is installed on the inner side of the needle box, and a threaded rod is installed on the output end of the first servo motor. A square rod is installed on the side of the movable plate, and the square rod and the threaded rod are threadedly connected. When the threaded rod rotates, the force generated by the interaction with the square rod drives the movable plate to move along the guide rod.

[0007] A second servo motor is installed on the side of the movable plate away from the threaded rod. A transmission mechanism is installed at the output end of the second servo motor. The transmission mechanism is movably connected to the round rod. The second servo motor drives the round rod to reciprocate through the transmission mechanism.

[0008] The first drive unit includes a fourth servo motor mounted inside the needle box, a fourth gear mounted at the output end of the fourth servo motor, and a third gear mounted on the outer side of the rotating ring. The third gear meshes with the fourth servo motor, and the fourth servo motor drives the rotating ring to rotate through the fourth gear and the third gear.

[0009] The second drive unit includes a third servo motor mounted inside the needle box, a first gear mounted at the output end of the third servo motor, and a second gear mounted on the outer side of the ring. The second gear meshes with the first gear, and the third servo motor drives the ring to rotate through the first gear and the second gear.

[0010] A valve is installed at the end of the second cylinder.

[0011] A guide cover is installed on the inner side of the needle box. The opening of the guide cover corresponds to the opening of the second cylinder. The wind generated by the reverse rotation of the fan blades blows into the inner side of the ring through the opening of the second cylinder and the guide cover.

[0012] Multiple rotating rods are rotatably connected to the inner side of the ring. The push plate is installed at the end of the rotating rods. A torsion spring is installed on the side of the push plate. The end of the torsion spring away from the push plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the ring.

[0013] The pressure rod is positioned above the movement trajectory of the multiple push plates.

[0014] Both the first and second cylinders are in contact with the ring.

[0015] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: In this invention, needles can be retracted into a needle box for real-time disinfection. Furthermore, by incorporating a processing component, after acupuncture, the airflow generated by the rotating fan blades blows outwards from the needle box, simultaneously sweeping the needle surface. This removes organic matter such as blood and tissue debris, preventing residues from consuming the disinfectant or forming a protective layer. This ensures that subsequent disinfectant directly contacts microorganisms. When the disinfectant disinfects the needles, the inner ring pusher plate rotates and vibrates, creating a vortex that impacts the needle surface. Compared to static soaking, this agitation and impact allows the disinfectant to penetrate deeper, increasing the kill rate of needle crevices and biofilms. Attached Figure Description

The second drive unit drives the ring 14 to rotate. The rotation of the ring 14 drives the push plate 27 to rotate. The rotation of the push plate 27 squeezes the pressure rod 28, causing it to vibrate. The force generated by the rotation and vibration of the push plate 27 causes the disinfectant to impact the needle 11. A heating device 35 is installed inside the needle box 1. A connecting line 36 is installed at the output end of the heating device 35. The connecting line 36 is fixedly connected to the round rod 9.

[0020] A guide rod 2 is installed on the inner side of the needle box 1, and a movable plate 3 is slidably disposed on the outer side of the guide rod 2. A first servo motor 4 is installed on the inner side of the needle box 1, and a threaded rod 5 is installed on the output end of the first servo motor 4. A square rod 6 is installed on the side of the movable plate 3, and the square rod 6 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 5. When the threaded rod 5 rotates, the force generated by the interaction with the square rod 6 drives the movable plate 3 to move along the guide rod 2.

[0024] A valve 18 is installed at the end of the second cylinder 13.

[0025] A guide cover 34 is installed on the inner side of the needle box 1. The opening of the guide cover 34 corresponds to the opening of the second cylinder 13. The wind generated by the reverse rotation of the fan blade 30 is blown into the inner side of the ring 14 through the opening of the second cylinder 13 and the guide cover 34.

[0026] Multiple rotating rods 25 are rotatably connected to the inner side of the ring 14. A push plate 27 is installed at the end of the rotating rod 25.

[0027] The pressure rod 28 is positioned on the trajectory of the multiple push plates 27.

[0028] Both the first cylinder 12 and the second cylinder 13 are fitted together with the ring 14.

[0029] In this embodiment, during acupuncture, heat is transferred from the heating device 35 to the round rod 9 and the needle 11 via the connecting line 36. The needle 11 is then inserted into the patient's acupoint. The second servo motor 7 is then activated, driving the round rod 9 to reciprocate via the transmission mechanism 8. This reciprocates the insertion and removal of the needle 11, thus performing acupuncture. After the acupuncture is completed, the needle 11 is removed. At this point, the fourth servo motor 32 is activated, driving the fourth gear 33 to rotate. The rotation of the fourth gear 33, in turn, drives the rotating ring 29 to rotate via the third gear 31. The internal fan blades 30 rotate, and the airflow generated by the rotating fan blades 30 blows towards the outside of the needle box 1 and towards the needles 11, blowing away impurities generated during acupuncture. Then, the first servo motor 4 is activated, which drives the threaded rod 5 to rotate. The force generated by the rotation of the threaded rod 5 and the square rod 6 drives the movable plate 3 to move along the guide rod 2. As the movable plate 3 moves, it drives the needles 11 into the inner side of the ring 14. Then, the opening of the second cylinder 13 is closed through the valve 18. At this time, the first water pump 20 can be activated, and the first water pump 20 pumps the disinfectant inside the valve 18 through... The first delivery tube 21 delivers disinfectant to the inner side of the ring 14, disinfecting the needle 11 with disinfectant solution. Then, the third servo motor 15 is activated, driving the first gear 16 to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 16, via the second gear 17, drives the ring 14 to rotate. The rotation of the ring 14, in turn, drives multiple push plates 27 to rotate. The rotation of the push plates 27 mixes the disinfectant solution and simultaneously compresses the pressure rod 28. This compression of the pressure rod 28 by the push plates 27 causes the rotating rod 25 to rotate, at which point the torsion spring 26 contracts. When the push plate 27 moves to the other side of the pressure rod 28... At this time, the torsion spring 26 resets, thereby driving the push plate 27 to reset. At this time, the push plate 27 rotates and vibrates, thereby driving the disinfectant to impact the needle 11, improving the disinfection effect on the needle 11. After the disinfection work is completed, the second water pump 23 is started. The guide rod 2 delivers the disinfectant inside the ring 14 through the second delivery pipe 24 to the collection box 22. Then the valve 18 is opened, and the fan blade 30 is reversed by the fourth servo motor 32. The wind generated by the reverse fan blade 30 blows into the inside of the ring 14 through the opening of the second cylinder 13 and the guide cover 34, drying the needle 11.
