Description

Technical Field ,

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and particularly to an operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture functions. Background Art

[0002] Acupuncture therapy is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine in China, and its clinical efficacy is closely related to the quantitative parameters of acupuncture manipulation. The core quantitative criteria for acupuncture manipulation are clear, including the acupuncture depth in units of "cun", the acupuncture direction represented by an angle, and the manipulation frequency including the rotation direction and the number of rotations per minute, which are the core contents that need to be clearly demonstrated and accurately presented in the quantitative research of acupuncture manipulation.

[0003] Currently, the quantitative research on acupuncture manipulation still mainly relies on manual acupuncture operations, but manual acupuncture operations have significant limitations: the acupuncture depth, direction, and the direction and frequency of rotation all highly depend on the personal experience of the researcher, and it is impossible to achieve standardized operation and presentation, and it is difficult to intuitively and accurately demonstrate the core parameters of acupuncture manipulation, which is not conducive to the clear display and comparative analysis of parameters during the research process.

[0004] Existing automatic acupuncture devices mostly focus on acupoint positioning or basic needle insertion functions, and do not have a special design for the demonstration requirements of acupuncture manipulation quantification. They cannot accurately control core quantitative parameters such as depth, direction, and rotation at the same time, and it is difficult to meet the accurate demonstration requirements for core quantitative parameters in scientific research work. Therefore, an operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture functions is proposed to address the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture functions to solve the problems raised in the above background art.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: As an optional solution of an operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture functions described in the present invention, wherein: an operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture functions includes a base, a connecting seat, and an operating arm; A connecting seat is installed above the base, and an operating arm is installed on the top of the connecting seat. The other end of the operating arm is installed with an acupuncture quantification module; An operating screen for operating the operating arm and the acupuncture quantification module is also installed above the base; The acupuncture quantification module includes a mounting frame connected to the operating arm. A connecting sleeve is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting frame. A second motor is installed inside the connecting sleeve. The end of the main shaft of the second motor is fixedly connected to a driving gear. A driven gear is meshed outside the driving gear, and a needle insertion mechanism is fixedly connected inside the driven gear; An angle monitoring module is also installed inside the connecting sleeve.

[0007] Currently, quantitative research on acupuncture techniques still relies mainly on manual acupuncture. However, manual acupuncture has significant limitations: the depth, direction, and rotation direction and frequency of needle insertion are highly dependent on the researcher's personal experience, making it impossible to standardize operations and presentations. It is difficult to intuitively and accurately demonstrate the core parameters of quantitative acupuncture techniques, which is not conducive to the clear display and comparative analysis of parameters during the research process. Existing automatic acupuncture equipment mostly focuses on acupoint location or basic needle insertion functions and has not been specifically designed for the demonstration needs of quantitative acupuncture techniques. It cannot simultaneously and accurately control core quantitative parameters such as depth, direction, and rotation, making it difficult to meet the needs of accurate demonstration of core quantitative parameters in scientific research. To address the above problems, this device relies on the multi-angle movement function of the operating arm and installs the acupuncture quantification module at the end of the operating arm. By inputting preset operation data through the operation screen, the operating arm drives the acupuncture quantification module to complete operations at multiple angles, depths, and specific manipulation frequencies, providing a standardized operating arm structure for quantitative acupuncture techniques research.

[0008] As an optional solution of the operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture function described in this invention, the acupuncture needle mechanism includes an installation sleeve that is rotatably connected to the connecting sleeve, a depth advance mechanism is installed inside the installation sleeve, a docking sleeve is provided below the depth advance mechanism, and protrusions are fixedly connected to both sides of the docking sleeve, with the outer sides of the protrusions being slidably connected to the installation sleeve. The mounting sleeve has a fixing screw on the outside, and the protrusion has a threaded groove on the outside. The fixing screw passes through the mounting sleeve and is connected to the protrusion in a spiral manner through the threaded groove.

[0009] As an optional solution of the operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture function described in this invention, a guide cylinder is also fixedly connected inside the docking sleeve, and a guide needle sleeve is fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide cylinder.

[0010] As an optional solution of the operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture function described in this invention, the guide needle sleeve is arranged in a hollow cone shape.

[0011] As an optional solution of the operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture function described in this invention, the depth advance mechanism includes a motor frame fixedly connected to the mounting sleeve, a first motor is installed inside the motor frame, a threaded shaft is fixedly connected to the end of the main shaft of the first motor, a threaded sleeve is screwed to the outside of the threaded shaft, a needle body fixing mechanism is fixedly connected to the bottom of the threaded sleeve, and an air tube is connected to the outside of the needle body fixing mechanism.

[0012] As an optional solution of the operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture function described in this invention, guide posts are fixedly connected to both sides of the threaded sleeve, and the outer side of the guide posts is slidably connected to the inner wall of the motor frame.

[0013] In terms of frequency control, the device drives the active gear to rotate through the second motor inside the connecting sleeve. The active gear further drives the driven gear to rotate, thereby driving the needle mechanism to rotate. By controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the second motor, the twisting direction of the needle mechanism can be precisely adjusted, and the twisting frequency of the needle body can be precisely controlled at the same time.

[0014] In terms of needle insertion depth control, the first motor drives the threaded shaft to rotate, which drives the threaded sleeve to generate linear displacement, thereby pushing the needle body fixing mechanism below to move synchronously. The needle body fixing mechanism drives the needle body to move, ultimately achieving precise control of the needle insertion depth.

[0015] To ensure the accuracy of needle insertion, the device is specially equipped with a guide needle sleeve, which plays a precise guiding role when the needle is inserted to a certain depth, effectively preventing needle deviation and improving operational accuracy.

[0016] As an optional solution of the operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture function described in this invention, the needle body fixing mechanism includes a needle body fixing sleeve, the top of the needle body fixing sleeve is fixedly connected to a threaded sleeve, the needle body fixing sleeve has two sets of air chambers inside, and each air chamber is slidably connected to a squeezing plate, each squeezing plate is fixedly connected to a squeezing rod on one side, and the outer side of the squeezing rod is slidably connected to the needle body fixing sleeve.

[0017] As an optional solution of the operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture function described in this invention, the two sides of the extrusion rod are also provided with springs that are fixedly connected to the extrusion plate, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the needle body fixing sleeve.

[0018] As an optional solution of the operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture function described in this invention, the needle body fixing sleeve has internal threads for spiral connection with the guide cylinder.

[0020] During the needle fixation process, an external air pump is used to inflate the air tube. The gas enters the inflation chamber of the needle fixation mechanism, pushing the compression plate to move. The compression plate then moves the compression rod synchronously, thereby achieving a stable compression and fixation of the needle and ensuring the stability of the needle during operation.

[0021] In addition, this device has a flexible operating mode. The depth advance mechanism inside the mounting sleeve can be removed for separate operation. Operators can also manually operate the mechanism by hand, which takes into account both standardized scientific research needs and flexible operation needs.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: This device relies on the multi-angle movement function of the manipulator arm, and the acupuncture quantification module is installed at the end of the manipulator arm. By inputting preset operation data through the operation screen, the manipulator arm drives the acupuncture quantification module to complete operations at multiple angles, depths and specific manipulation frequencies, providing a standardized manipulator arm structure for the quantitative research of acupuncture manipulation techniques.

[0023] In terms of frequency control, the device drives the active gear to rotate through the second motor inside the connecting sleeve. The active gear further drives the driven gear to rotate, thereby driving the needle mechanism to rotate. By controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the second motor, the twisting direction of the needle mechanism can be precisely adjusted, and the twisting frequency of the needle body can be precisely controlled at the same time.

[0024] In terms of needle insertion depth control, the first motor drives the threaded shaft to rotate, which drives the threaded sleeve to generate linear displacement, thereby pushing the needle body fixing mechanism below to move synchronously. The needle body fixing mechanism drives the needle body to move, ultimately achieving precise control of the needle insertion depth.

[0025] During the needle fixation process, an external air pump is used to inflate the air tube. The gas enters the inflation chamber of the needle fixation mechanism, pushing the compression plate to move. The compression plate then moves the compression rod synchronously, thereby achieving a stable compression and fixation of the needle and ensuring the stability of the needle during operation.

[0026] To ensure the accuracy of needle insertion, the device is specially equipped with a guide needle sleeve, which plays a precise guiding role when the needle is inserted to a certain depth, effectively preventing needle deviation and improving operational accuracy.

[0027] In addition, this device has a flexible operating mode. The depth advance mechanism inside the mounting sleeve can be removed for separate operation. Operators can also manually operate the mechanism by hand, which takes into account both standardized scientific research needs and flexible operation needs. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0030] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention provides a technical solution: An operating device with intelligent positioning and quantitative acupuncture functions includes a base 1, a connecting seat 2, and an operating arm 3; A connecting seat 2 is installed on the top of the base 1, and an operating arm 3 is installed on the top of the connecting seat 2. A needle quantification module 4 is installed on the other end of the operating arm 3. Above the base 1 is an operation screen 6 for operating the operating arm 3 and the needle quantification module 4; The needle quantification module 4 includes a mounting frame 401 connected to the operating arm 3. A connecting sleeve 402 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting frame 401. A second motor 404 is installed inside the connecting sleeve 402. A drive gear 405 is fixedly connected to the end of the main shaft of the second motor 404. A driven gear 406 meshes with the outside of the drive gear 405, and a needle mechanism 403 is fixedly connected inside the driven gear 406. An angle monitoring module 407 is also installed inside the connecting sleeve 402.

[0031] Existing automated acupuncture devices mostly focus on acupoint location or basic needle insertion functions, without being specifically designed for the demonstration of acupuncture technique quantification. They cannot simultaneously and accurately control core quantification parameters such as depth, direction, and rotation, making it difficult to meet the precise demonstration requirements of core quantification parameters in scientific research. To address these issues, this device utilizes the multi-angle movement function of the operating arm 3, with the acupuncture quantification module 4 installed at the end of the operating arm 3. Preset operation data is input through the operation screen 6, and the operating arm 3 drives the acupuncture quantification module 4 to complete multi-angle, multi-depth, and specific technique frequency operations, providing a standardized operating arm structure for acupuncture technique quantification research. Also includes the following: In terms of frequency control, the device drives the active gear 405 to rotate through the second motor 404 inside the connecting sleeve 402. The active gear 405 further drives the driven gear 406 to rotate, thereby driving the needle mechanism 403 to rotate. By controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the second motor 404, the twisting direction of the needle mechanism 403 can be precisely controlled, and the twisting frequency of the needle body can be precisely controlled at the same time. Meanwhile, the angle monitoring module 407 can monitor the tilt angle of the needle body, and the operation screen 6 displays the information. The operation screen 6 can not only be operated, but also observe real-time data, such as twisting frequency, twisting direction, and insertion depth.

[0032] Example 2: This example is an improvement upon Example 1. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 Specifically, the needle mechanism 403 includes a mounting sleeve 4031 that is rotatably connected to the connecting sleeve 402. A depth advance mechanism 4032 is installed inside the mounting sleeve 4031. A docking sleeve 4033 is provided below the depth advance mechanism 4032. Protrusions 4035 are fixedly connected to both sides of the docking sleeve 4033. The outer side of the protrusions 4035 is slidably connected to the mounting sleeve 4031. The mounting sleeve 4031 is provided with a fixing screw 4037 on the outside, and the protrusion 4035 is provided with a threaded groove on the outside. The fixing screw 4037 passes through the mounting sleeve 4031 and is connected to the protrusion 4035 in a spiral manner through the threaded groove.

[0033] Inside the docking sleeve 4033, a guide cylinder 4034 is also fixedly connected, and a guide pin sleeve 4036 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide cylinder 4034.

[0034] The guide pin sleeve 4036 is designed in a hollow cone shape.

[0035] The depth advance mechanism 4032 includes a motor frame 51 fixedly connected to the mounting sleeve 4031. A first motor 52 is installed inside the motor frame 51. A threaded shaft 53 is fixedly connected to the end of the main shaft of the first motor 52. A threaded sleeve 54 is screwed to the outside of the threaded shaft 53. A needle fixing mechanism 55 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the threaded sleeve 54. An air tube 57 is connected to the outside of the needle fixing mechanism 55.

[0036] Guide posts 56 are fixedly connected to both sides of the threaded sleeve 54, and the outer side of the guide post 56 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the motor frame 51.

[0037] In terms of needle insertion depth control, the first motor 52 drives the threaded shaft 53 to rotate, which drives the threaded sleeve 54 to generate linear displacement, thereby pushing the needle body fixing mechanism 55 below to move synchronously. The needle body is moved by the needle body fixing mechanism 55, and finally the needle insertion depth is precisely controlled.

[0038] To ensure the accuracy of needle insertion, the device is specially equipped with a guide needle sleeve 4036, which plays a precise guiding role when the needle is inserted to a certain depth, effectively preventing needle deviation and improving operational accuracy. Also includes the following: The connection between the two can be achieved by engaging the threaded groove on the outer side of the fixing screw 4037 and the protrusion 4035. The connection can be operated by the operating arm 3, and the connection can also be disassembled for easy hand operation. The bottom of the docking sleeve 4033 is also equipped with a distance measuring module (not shown in the figure), which is used to measure the distance to the piercing position, thereby ensuring the depth of subsequent needle insertion, and also has a positioning function.

[0039] Example 3: This example is an improvement on Example 2. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4 and Figure 5 Specifically, the needle fixing mechanism 55 includes a needle fixing sleeve 551. The top of the needle fixing sleeve 551 is fixedly connected to the threaded sleeve 54. The needle fixing sleeve 551 has two sets of inflation chambers 552 inside, and each inflation chamber 552 is slidably connected to a compression plate 554. Each side of the compression plate 554 is fixedly connected to a compression rod 555, and the outer side of the compression rod 555 is slidably connected to the needle fixing sleeve 551.

[0040] The extrusion rod 555 is also provided with springs 556 fixedly connected to the extrusion plate 554 on both sides, and the other end of the springs 556 is fixedly connected to the needle body fixing sleeve 551.

[0041] The needle body fixing sleeve 551 has internal threads for spiral connection with the guide cylinder 4034.

[0042] The needle body fixing sleeve 551 also has a connecting channel 553 inside, the two ends of the connecting channel 553 connect the two sets of inflation chambers 552, and one side of one set of inflation chambers 552 is also connected to an air tube 57.

[0043] During the needle fixation process, an external air pump is used to inflate the air pipe 57. The gas enters the inflation chamber 552 of the needle fixation mechanism, which pushes the compression plate 554 to move. The compression plate 554 drives the compression rod 555 to move synchronously, thereby achieving stable compression and fixation of the needle and ensuring the stability of the needle during operation.

[0044] In addition, this device has a flexible operating mode. The depth advance mechanism 4032 inside the mounting sleeve 4031 can be taken out to achieve separate operation. Operators can also hold the mechanism for manual operation, which takes into account both standardized scientific research needs and flexible operation needs. Also includes the following: The end of the extrusion rod 555 is made of rubber block, which has a certain buffering effect when the extrusion rod 555 contacts the needle body, ensuring stable clamping and no damage to the needle body. The spring 556 can provide a restoring force after the air pressure is released, ensuring that the extrusion plate 554 returns to its original position for easy subsequent use. The connecting channel 553 can ensure that the air pressure on the two sides of the inflation chamber 552 is consistent, ensuring stable extrusion by the extrusion rod 555.
