Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical device cleaning equipment technology, specifically a cleaning and storage box for acupuncture and cupping. Background Technology

[0002] Acupuncture and cupping are traditional Chinese medicine therapies. After use, the inner wall of the cupping jars easily accumulates blood, tissue fluid, and other impurities, forming a biofilm. If not thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, this can easily lead to cross-infection. Currently, cleaning cupping jars mostly relies on manual scrubbing, a tedious process with uncertain cleaning results, especially in the removal of biofilm. Furthermore, cleaned cupping jars lack dedicated, clean storage spaces, making them susceptible to environmental contamination during storage. Existing cleaning equipment is relatively simple, typically only capable of basic rinsing or scrubbing, and cannot achieve automated processing integrating cleaning, disinfection, drying, and storage. Additionally, during scrubbing, the contact pressure between the brush head and the inner wall of the cupping jar is often fixed or difficult to adjust, potentially leading to incomplete cleaning or damage to the jar due to excessive pressure. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention provides a cleaning and storage box for acupuncture and cupping, which overcomes the problems of incomplete cleaning, easy cross-infection, inconvenient storage, and inaccurate control of contact pressure during the washing process in the prior art.

[0004] This invention provides the following technical solution: a cleaning and storage box for acupuncture and cupping, comprising: A storage cabinet with an openable and closable door, and a storage layer inside the storage cabinet for storing fire cupping jars; A cleaning unit is fixedly connected to the storage cabinet. The cleaning unit includes a main unit housing and a cleaning tank disposed inside the main unit housing. The cleaning tank is detachably provided with a protective cylinder for isolating and supporting a single cupping jar during the cleaning operation. A rotating cleaning table is rotatably mounted at the bottom of the cleaning tank; and A drive motor, located inside the main unit housing and connected to the rotating cleaning table, is used to drive the fire cupping jars located thereon to rotate for cleaning operations.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the rotating cleaning table includes: The central jet pipe is fixedly assembled with the drive motor and is in fluid rotational communication with the gas-liquid mixing connector for conveying the cleaning medium. A lifting sleeve is fitted on the outside of the central jet pipe and can slide along the axial direction of the central jet pipe. Multiple rotating hinge components are arranged in a ring on the outer wall of the lifting sleeve; Multiple L-shaped swing arms, the bottom end of each L-shaped swing arm being rotatably connected to the rotating hinge; and The contact brush head is located at the top of each of the L-shaped swing arms and is used to contact and scrub the inner wall of the fire cup when the central jet pipe rotates.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a bottom connecting counterweight is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the L-shaped swing arm, and a return spring is connected between the bottom connecting counterweight and the lifting sleeve. The return spring allows the lifting sleeve to move axially relative to the central jet pipe and generate a floating buffer force when subjected to axial pressure, and causes the L-shaped swing arm to tend to retract towards the central jet pipe when there is no external force.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, it further includes a limiting thrust component, which includes an elastic push spring, two sets of positioning female seats, and snap-fit ​​sub-parts disposed at both ends of the elastic push spring. The snap-fit ​​sub-parts snap-fit ​​with the positioning female seats, thereby detachably connecting the elastic push spring between the top of the cleaning tank and the top of the protective tank cylinder, for providing an axial preload force pointing towards the rotating cleaning table to the protective tank cylinder and the fire cupping placed therein; the cylinder wall of the protective tank cylinder is provided with a plurality of through annular openings.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the direction in which the drive motor drives the rotating cleaning table to rotate is configured to be opposite to the helical direction of the elastic push spring. This is so that during the cleaning operation, when the rotating cleaning table drives the cupping jar and the protective jar cylinder to rotate, the elastic push spring tends to expand along its axial direction, thereby increasing the axial thrust applied to the cupping jar through the protective jar cylinder, and thus increasing the friction between the cupping jar and the contact brush head.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it further includes a media supply system, the media supply system comprising: A water pump, connected to the clean water tank, is used to supply cleaning liquid through a delivery pipe; A high-pressure air pump, used to supply purging gas via a gas delivery conduit; and A gas-liquid mixing connector is fluidly connected to the output end of the liquid delivery pipe, the output end of the gas delivery pipe, and the central jet pipe at the bottom of the rotating cleaning table, respectively, for mixing and delivering liquid and / or gas into the fire cupping jar.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a heating module and an ultrasonic atomizer are sequentially provided on the infusion tube. The heating module is used to heat the flowing liquid, and the ultrasonic atomizer is used to break the small amount of flowing liquid into droplets. A liquid anti-backflow valve is provided in the inner cavity of the infusion tube near the gas-liquid mixing connector, and a gas anti-backflow valve is provided in the inner cavity of the gas conduit near the gas-liquid mixing connector, so as to realize the backflow prevention of gas and liquid.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, it also includes a waste liquid treatment system, wherein a water-blocking baffle with an upward protrusion is provided at the top edge of the cleaning tank; the waste liquid treatment system includes a waste liquid collection tank provided at the bottom of the main unit housing and a heat dissipation water-cooling jacket sleeved on the outer wall of the drive motor, wherein the waste liquid at the bottom of the cleaning tank is guided by the flow guiding structure into the heat dissipation water-cooling jacket to dissipate heat from the drive motor, and then discharged into the waste liquid collection tank for storage.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, it also includes an intelligent controller, which is electrically connected to the drive motor, the water pump, the high-pressure air pump, the heating module and the ultrasonic atomizer, and is used to control the switching of cleaning operation modes, media transmission parameters and processes.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the L-shaped swing arm of the rotating cleaning table is provided with a piezoelectric sensor electrically connected to the intelligent controller. The piezoelectric sensor is used to collect the friction vibration sound signal generated when the contact brush head sweeps across the glass surface of the cupping jar in real time and feed the signal back to the intelligent controller. The intelligent controller is configured to determine the degree of peeling of the biofilm on the inner wall of the cupping jar based on the acoustic fingerprint features of a specific frequency, and automatically adjust the cleaning mode or extend the brushing time accordingly to form a closed-loop control.

[0014] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This acupuncture and cupping cupping cleaning and storage box effectively solves several problems in the cleaning and storage of cupping jars by integrating cleaning, disinfection, drying, and storage functions. Equipped with a cleaning tank, protective cupping cylinder, rotating cleaning table, clean water chamber, high-pressure air pump, water pump, and intelligent controller, it can automatically perform liquid rinsing, heated liquid rinsing, atomized disinfection, or high-pressure gas purging on the cupping jars inside the protective cylinder, achieving multi-mode deep cleaning. In particular, the ultrasonic atomizer can generate micron-sized droplets, which, combined with high-pressure gas, can effectively penetrate and remove stubborn biofilms on the inner wall of the cupping jars, thus solving the problem of incomplete cleaning and disinfection. Since each cupping jar is independently placed in a dedicated protective cylinder during cleaning and interacts with the cleaning environment through annular openings, direct contact between cupping jars is avoided. Furthermore, the cleaned cupping jars can be stored in an independent storage layer of the storage cabinet, blocking cross-infection pathways. Because the storage cabinet is integrated with the main unit casing, the cleaned cupping jars can be directly transferred into the storage cabinet for storage, ensuring a clean and convenient storage environment and solving the problem of inconvenient storage. Because of the inclusion of a limiting thrust component composed of elastic springs, and the fact that the rotation direction of the rotating cleaning table driven by the motor is opposite to the helical direction of the elastic springs, the rotation of the cleaning table during cleaning causes the cupping jar and its protective sleeve to expand under pressure. This continuously increases the axial thrust applied to the cupping jar by the elastic spring through the protective sleeve, resulting in adaptively enhanced friction between the cupping jar opening and the extended end of the L-shaped swing arm, as well as between the inner wall of the cupping jar and the contact brush head, thus improving the cleaning effect. Simultaneously, the spring structure between the lifting sliding sleeve and the central spray pipe allows the cupping jar to float up and down within a certain range, buffering excessive pressure and preventing damage to the cupping jar or the drive motor, thereby achieving intelligent and adaptive adjustment of the cleaning force. Furthermore, the combination of water-blocking baffles, a heat dissipation water-cooling jacket, and a waste liquid collection tank enables directional collection of cleaning waste liquid and active heat dissipation of the drive motor, ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment. The installation of gas and liquid anti-backflow valves effectively prevents media backflow, ensuring the independence and cleanliness of each pipeline system. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] Please see Figures 1-8 After acupuncture and cupping, bodily fluids and bacteria easily remain on the inner wall of the cupping jar (9), forming a biofilm that is difficult to remove. Traditional manual cleaning suffers from low efficiency, poor results, susceptibility to cross-infection, and inconvenience in post-cleaning storage. This invention provides a clean storage box that integrates automatic cleaning, disinfection, drying, and storage, aiming to achieve deep cleaning and safe storage of the cupping jar (9).

[0019] Figures 1 to 3 The structure of one embodiment of the present invention is shown. For example... Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides a cleaning and storage box for acupuncture and cupping jars. The box includes a storage cabinet 1 and a main unit housing 3 fixedly mounted on one outer wall of the storage cabinet 1. A cabinet door 2 is rotatably connected to the other outer wall of the storage cabinet 1, used to open and close the storage cabinet 1 for storing and retrieving the cupping jars 9. A cleaning tank 4 is formed on the top inner wall of the main unit housing 3, and a water-blocking baffle 5 is fixedly mounted on the bottom outer side of the cleaning tank 4 to prevent liquid from splashing out of the cleaning tank 4 during the cleaning process. An intelligent controller 6 is embedded in the top outer wall of the main unit housing 3 to control the operation of the entire device. A protective jar cylinder 7 is provided inside the cleaning tank 4, and multiple annular openings 8 are formed on the outer wall of the protective jar cylinder 7. The interior of the protective jar cylinder 7 is used to house the cupping jars 9 to be cleaned. By independently housing the cupping jars 9 inside the protective jar cylinder 7 and allowing them to interact with the external cleaning environment through the annular openings 8, different cupping jars 9 are effectively isolated, avoiding cross-contamination.

[0020] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, positioning female seats 10 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the protective tank 7. The two sets of positioning female seats 10 are located on the top inner wall of the cleaning tank 4 and the top of the protective tank 7, respectively. The internal parts of the two sets of positioning female seats 10 can be engaged with the locking parts 11 of the limiting thrust component.

[0021] Specifically, the limiting thrust component includes an elastic push spring 12 and snap-fit ​​parts 11 fixedly assembled at both ends of the elastic push spring 12.

[0022] In use, the two snap-fit ​​pieces 11 are respectively snapped into the positioning nuts 10 located at the top of the cleaning tank 4 and the top of the protective cup 7, thus suspending and fixing the protective cup 7 in the cleaning tank 4. The elastic push spring 12 provides a downward pre-tightening force in its natural state, which is transmitted through the protective cup 7 to the cupping jar 9, pressing the cupping jar 9 firmly onto the rotating cleaning table 27, thereby achieving initial contact pressure during cleaning. This structure enables rapid installation and fixation of the cupping jar 9.

[0023] In this embodiment, a cleaning system is integrated inside the main unit housing 3. A clean water tank 13 for storing clean liquids (such as water or disinfectant) is provided on the top inner wall of the main unit housing 3. A high-pressure air pump 14, a water pump 15, and a waste liquid collection tank 16 for collecting waste liquid are respectively provided on the bottom inner wall of the main unit housing 3. The clean water tank 13 and the water pump 15 are connected via a liquid extraction pipe 17. A heating module 20 is connected to the outlet end of the water pump 15, and a liquid delivery pipe 19 is connected to the outlet end of the heating module 20. An air delivery conduit 18 is connected to the outlet end of the high-pressure air pump 14. The ends of the air delivery conduit 18 and the liquid delivery pipe 19 are connected to a gas-liquid mixing connector 26. The output end of the gas-liquid mixing connector 26 is connected to the central jet pipe 2701 of the rotating cleaning table 27. A gas anti-backflow valve 21 is provided in the inner cavity of the air delivery conduit 18 near the gas-liquid mixing connector 26 to prevent liquid or gas from flowing back into the high-pressure air pump 14. An ultrasonic atomizer 22 and a liquid anti-backflow valve 23 are sequentially installed in the inner cavity of the infusion pipe 19 near the gas-liquid mixing connector 26. The ultrasonic atomizer 22 is used to break the flowing liquid into micron-sized droplets, and the liquid anti-backflow valve 23 is used to prevent gas from flowing back into the liquid pipeline. This cleaning system provides a basis for multi-mode cleaning: it can pump liquid for rinsing alone; it can activate the heating module 20 to provide hot water rinsing; it can control the ultrasonic atomizer 22 to work and mix high-pressure gas with atomized liquid droplets for atomized rinsing; it can also activate the high-pressure air pump 14 alone for gas purging and drying. The gas anti-backflow valve 21 and the liquid anti-backflow valve 23 effectively ensure the unidirectional flow of the medium in each pipeline and the cleanliness of the system.

[0024] A drive motor 25 is fixedly mounted on the top of the waste liquid collection tank 16 and is fixedly mounted to the inner wall of the main unit housing 3. A heat dissipation water cooling jacket 24 is sleeved on the outer wall of the drive motor 25. The top output shaft of the drive motor 25 passes through the heat dissipation water cooling jacket 24 and is fixedly mounted to the rotating cleaning table 27 located on the inner wall of the cleaning tank 4, for driving the rotating cleaning table 27 to rotate for brushing. After the waste liquid flowing out of the fire pot 9 is blocked by the water blocking baffle 5, it can be guided into the inner cavity water channel of the heat dissipation water cooling jacket 24 through the guide channel (not shown in the figure) opened at the bottom of the cleaning tank 4. On the one hand, it dissipates heat from the drive motor 25, and on the other hand, the waste liquid can continue to be discharged into the waste liquid collection tank 16 below through the connecting hose for temporary storage, realizing the directional recycling of waste liquid and the active cooling of the drive motor 25.

[0025] like Figure 2As shown, the rotating cleaning table 27 in this embodiment includes a central jet pipe 2701. A limiting groove 2702 is axially formed on the bottom outer wall of the central jet pipe 2701. A spring 2703 is sleeved at the bottom of the central jet pipe 2701, and a lifting sleeve 2704 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the central jet pipe 2701. The lifting sleeve 2704 achieves circumferential limiting with the central jet pipe 2701 through the limiting groove 2702, preventing relative rotation between the two, but allowing the lifting sleeve 2704 to slide axially along the central jet pipe 2701. Several sets of rotating hinge members 2705 are evenly arranged in a ring on the outer wall of the lifting sleeve 2704. An L-shaped swing arm 2706 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of each set of rotating hinge members 2705. A contact brush head 2707 is rotatably connected to the top of the L-shaped swing arm 2706, and the contact brush head 2707 is used to directly contact and scrub the inner wall of the fire cup 9. The bottom of the L-shaped swing arm 2706 is fixedly equipped with a bottom connecting counterweight 2708. A return spring 2709 is provided between the bottom connecting counterweight 2708 and the lifting sleeve 2704.

[0026] When the cupping jar 9 is not in use, under the thrust of the return spring 2709 and the gravity of the bottom connecting counterweight 2708, the L-shaped swing arm 2706 is pulled towards the central jet pipe 2701 and is in a retracted state, facilitating the insertion of the cupping jar 9. When the cupping jar 9 is placed on the outside of several contact brush heads 2707 and facing downwards, the mouth of the cupping jar 9 will abut against the extension arm of the L-shaped swing arm 2706, forcing the L-shaped swing arm 2706 to overcome the elastic force of the return spring 2709 and open outwards until the contact brush heads 2707 are tightly against the inner wall of the cupping jar 9. At the same time, the downward pressure of the cupping jar 9 will be transmitted to the lifting sleeve 2704 through the L-shaped swing arm 2706 and the rotating hinge 2705, causing the lifting sleeve 2704 to compress the spring 2703 and move downwards. The elastic deformation of spring 2703 provides space for the cupping jar 9 to float up and down, adapting to different sizes of cupping jar 9 and buffering excessive pressure that may occur during the brushing process, protecting the cupping jar 9 and drive motor 25. The central jet pipe 2701 sprays the cleaning medium (liquid, atomized liquid or gas) directly onto the inner wall of the cupping jar 9, which, together with the rotating contact brush head 2707 and L-shaped swing arm 2706, achieves efficient brushing.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, the direction in which the drive motor 25 drives the rotating cleaning table 27 to rotate is set to be opposite to the helical direction of the elastic spring 12. When the rotating cleaning table 27 drives the cupping jar 9 and the protective cupping cylinder 7 on it to rotate together, since the top of the protective cupping cylinder 7 is connected to the top of the fixed cleaning tank 4 through the elastic spring 12, this relative rotation will cause the elastic spring 12 to be subjected to torque and tend to tighten or expand (depending on the helical direction of the elastic spring 12).

[0028] In this embodiment, the torque causes the elastic spring 12 to expand axially, which translates into an additional thrust applied to the cupping jar 9 via the protective sleeve 7, pointing towards the rotating cleaning table 27. As cleaning progresses, this thrust continuously or intermittently increases, thereby adaptively enhancing the friction between the cupping jar opening and the L-shaped swing arm 2706, and between the inner wall of the cupping jar and the contact brush head 2707. This significantly improves the cleaning effect, especially for removing stubborn stains and biofilm.

[0029] In another preferred embodiment, a piezoelectric sensor (not shown in the figure) is also provided on the L-shaped swing arm 2706. The piezoelectric sensor is electrically connected to the intelligent controller 6. During the brushing process, the rotating L-shaped swing arm 2706 and the contact brush head 2707 sweep across the inner wall of the cupping jar 9, generating specific frictional vibrations. The piezoelectric sensor collects the vibration signals and converts them into sound spectrum data, which is then transmitted to the intelligent controller 6. The sound characteristics (such as frequency and amplitude) produced when a clean glass surface is brushed are distinctly different from those of a glass surface with attached biofilm. The intelligent controller 6 has a pre-stored "crisp acoustic fingerprint" feature model representing whether cleaning is up to standard. When the sound spectrum detected in real time is "dull," it indicates that cleaning is not thorough, and the intelligent controller 6 can automatically make decisions, such as switching the cleaning mode (e.g., switching from ordinary rinsing to atomized rinsing), increasing cleaning parameters (e.g., increasing water temperature or air pressure), or extending the brushing time. Only when the detected sound characteristics match the "crisp acoustic fingerprint" does the system determine that cleaning is up to standard and stop working. Based on online detection and feedback control of acoustic characteristics, intelligent and closed-loop quality control of the cleaning process is realized.

[0030] In this embodiment, the inner cavity of the storage cabinet 1 is also provided with multiple storage layers (not shown in the figure) for classifying or partitioning the cleaned and dried cupping jars 9. After the cupping jars 9 have been cleaned and dried, the user can open the cabinet door 2, take the cupping jars 9 out of the protective jar tube 7, and put them directly into the storage layer of the storage cabinet 1, realizing a seamless connection from cleaning to storage, and ensuring the cleanliness and convenience of the cupping jar storage environment.

[0031] It should be noted that the intelligent controller 6 typically includes a processor (such as a microcontroller unit (MCU) or a programmable logic controller (PLC), memory, and necessary input / output interface circuits. It receives user commands and sensor signals and controls the coordinated operation of actuators such as the high-pressure air pump 14, water pump 15, heating module 20, ultrasonic atomizer 22, and drive motor 25. It is a type of automation control unit well-known to those skilled in the art, and its specific programming and algorithms can be implemented based on the functional description above, and will not be elaborated further here. The heating module 20 can be an instant electric heating element, a PTC heater, etc. The high-pressure air pump 14 and water pump 15 are conventional fluid transport devices. The drive motor 25 is preferably a servo motor or stepper motor that can be controlled to rotate in both directions to precisely control the direction and speed of rotation.

[0032] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0033] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
