The basic techniques of needle movement are the basic techniques of filiform acupuncture. There are two commonly used methods: lifting and inserting and twisting, among which the lifting and inserting method is more commonly used. The lifting and inserting method refers to the method of moving the moxibustion needle up and down in the acupoint after the moxibustion needle is inserted into the acupoint. Inserting the needle from the shallow layer to the deep layer is called insertion, and withdrawing from the deep layer to the shallow layer is called lifting.

[0003] In clinical research on acupuncture, in order to standardize the amount of acupuncture treatment, it is necessary to quantify the acupuncture depth for different symptoms and acupoints through experiments. In acupuncture experiments, the acupuncture depth is generally controlled by the operator based on experience.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] As attached Figure 1-4 As shown, the utility model includes a cylinder 1 and a push rod 2, the push rod 2 is inserted into the cylinder 1, one end of the push rod 2 is provided with a clamp 7 for clamping the moxibustion needle 8, and the other end of the push rod 2 is located outside the cylinder 1. Under external force, such as manual push, the push rod 2 moves along the axis direction of the cylinder 1 to extend the moxibustion needle 8. The utility model also includes a limiter 41, the limiter 4 is arranged on the cylinder 1, and is used to limit the moving distance of the push rod 2. Specifically, when the push rod 2 is pushed to a certain stroke, the push rod 2 is directly or indirectly attached to the limiter 4, and the push rod 4 is blocked by the limiter 4 and cannot continue to push, thereby limiting the extension length of the moxibustion needle 8. In the utility model, the limiter 41 can move along the cylinder 1, that is, the position of the limiter 41 on the cylinder 1 is adjustable. By adjusting the position of the limiter 41, the maximum movable distance of the push rod 2 can be changed, thereby adjusting the extension length of the moxibustion needle 8.

[0022] In the present invention, the maximum moving distance of the push rod 2 is limited by setting a limiter 41, so the depth of acupuncture can be quantified. When the push rod 2 is pressed, the extension length of the moxibustion needle 8 is highly consistent. Therefore, when the present device is used for acupuncture tests in clinical acupuncture research, the depth of multiple acupunctures can be kept consistent, thereby improving the accuracy of the test data and the quality of the test. The limiter 41 is set to be movable, and the maximum moving distance of the push rod 2 can be changed by moving the limiter 41, thereby changing the acupuncture depth of the moxibustion needle 8. Therefore, the present device can be applied to quantitative operations of different acupuncture depths in acupuncture research. Compared with electric auxiliary acupuncture devices, the present invention has a simple structure, does not require the use of an electric module, does not require plugging in or regular charging, is more convenient to use, and can be made lighter as a whole.

[0023] The utility model also includes an adjusting sleeve 3 and a movable sleeve 4 coaxially arranged with the cylinder 1, wherein the adjusting sleeve 3 is passed through the cylinder 1 and is rotatably connected with the cylinder 1, and the upper end of the adjusting sleeve 3 is located outside the cylinder 1 to facilitate the rotation of the adjusting sleeve 3. The movable sleeve 4 is slidably arranged in the cylinder 1 along the axial direction of the cylinder 1, and the movable sleeve 4 is sleeved outside the adjusting sleeve 3, and the movable sleeve 4 and the adjusting sleeve 3 are threadedly connected, and a stopper 41 is arranged on the movable sleeve 4, and the push rod 2 is passed through the adjusting sleeve 3 and the movable sleeve 4, and the push rod 2 is rotatably connected with the adjusting sleeve 3, and the push rod 2 does not rotate or move with the adjusting sleeve 3 and the movable sleeve 4.

[0024] When the adjusting sleeve 3 is rotated, the movable sleeve 4 can move linearly along the axial direction of the cylinder 1, thereby adjusting the position of the limiter 41 to change the maximum moving distance of the push rod 2. Compared with the method of directly pushing the limiter 41 to move, since the thread has a certain self-locking property, the utility model does not need to set an additional locking structure to fix the limiter 41 after the position is adjusted, thereby reducing the complexity of the operation. In the method of directly threading the movable sleeve 4 on the cylinder 1, the movable sleeve 4 needs to reserve a certain length outside the cylinder 1. When adjusting in this way, the length of the movable sleeve 4 outside the cylinder 1 will change with the rotation, which is easy to affect the normal pressing of the push rod 2. The utility model uses the bronze drum adjusting sleeve 3 to adjust the movable sleeve 4. Compared with the aforementioned method, the length of the adjusting sleeve 3 outside the cylinder 1 will not change with the rotation, and will not affect the normal pressing of the push rod 2.

[0025] The linear sliding connection between the cylinder 1 and the movable sleeve 4 is specifically as follows: a guide bar 112 is provided on the inner wall of the cylinder 1 , the guide bar 112 is provided along the axial direction of the cylinder 1 , and a groove 42 for slidingly cooperating with the guide bar 112 is provided on the side of the movable sleeve 4 .

[0026] The utility model also includes a depth indicator bar 5 that moves with the movable sleeve 4. The depth indicator bar 5 is specifically fixed on the movable sleeve 4. The depth indicator bar 5 is provided with scale lines along the axial direction of the cylinder 1. The cylinder 1 is provided with a window 111 for observing the scale lines. After the movable sleeve 4 moves, the scale lines observed at the window 111 change accordingly. In the utility model, a stopper 2 is provided on the push rod 2. The stopper 21 is located in the movable sleeve 4. When the push rod 2 is pushed to a certain stroke, the stopper 21 on the push rod 2 is attached to the limiter 41 to limit the maximum moving distance of the push rod 2. When not in use, that is, when the push rod 2 is in the initial position, the moxibustion needle 8 is located in the cylinder 1, that is, the tip of the moxibustion needle 8 does not protrude outside the cylinder 1. The scale line directly observed from the window 111 is the acupuncture depth of the moxibustion needle 8 at the current position of the movable sleeve 4, and the acupuncture depth is specifically: the distance between the stopper 21 of the moxibustion needle 8 and the limiter 41 minus the distance between the tip of the moxibustion needle 8 and the end of the cylinder 1.

[0027] The clamp 7 includes two clamping blocks 71 hingedly connected by a rotating shaft 72, and a torsion spring 73 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 72. The two ends of the torsion spring 73 are respectively in contact with the two clamping blocks 71. The two clamping blocks 71 are opened by external force, so that the handle of the moxibustion needle 8 is located between the two clamping blocks 71. The two clamping blocks 71 clamp the moxibustion needle 8 under the force of the torsion spring 73, thereby fixing the moxibustion needle 8.

[0028] The end of the push rod 2 is provided with a mounting seat 22, the rotating shaft 72 is provided on the mounting seat 22, and a positioning block 221 is provided on the mounting seat 22, and the positioning block 221 is located between the two clamping blocks 71. Figure 2 As shown, the two clamping blocks 71 are provided with a concave area on one side facing the positioning block 221 to prevent the clamping blocks 71 from interfering with the positioning block 221 when rotating around the rotating shaft 72. The positioning block 221 can assist the moxibustion needle 8 in clamping in place. Specifically, when the moxibustion needle 8 is clamped by the clamp 7, the end of the needle handle of the moxibustion needle 8 is first placed against the positioning block 221, and then the moxibustion needle 8 is clamped by the clamp 7, so as to ensure the consistency of the clamping position of the moxibustion needle 8.

[0029] In order to facilitate the application of force to the clamp 7, an opening 121 is opened on the side of the cylinder 1, and the two clamping blocks 71 can be manually pressed directly through the opening 121 to open or close the clamp 7 for clamping the moxibustion needle 8.

[0030] In one embodiment of the present invention, the moxibustion needle 8 is installed in the clamp 7 by inserting the moxibustion needle into the cylinder 1 with tweezers so that it is clamped and fixed by the clamp 7. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cylinder 1 includes a cylinder body 11 and a sleeve 12, and the sleeve 12 is detachably arranged on one end of the cylinder body 11 close to the clamp 7, such as plug-in or threaded connection. In this embodiment, the moxibustion needle 8 can be fixed on the clamp 7 after the sleeve 12 is removed, and the operation is less difficult. On the other hand, in this embodiment, when using moxibustion needles 8 of different lengths, they can be adapted by replacing sleeves 12 of different lengths and sizes, and the flexibility of use is higher.

[0031] The utility model also includes a spring 6, a stopper 113 is provided in the cylinder 1, a stopper 21 is provided on the push rod 2, the spring 6 is sleeved on the push rod 2 and is located between the stopper 113 and the stopper 21, when the push rod 2 is pressed, the stopper 21 moves with the push rod 2 to compress the spring 6, after the push rod 2 is released, the push rod 2 automatically returns to the initial state under the elastic force of the spring 6.

[0032] Among them, the limiting member 41 is preferably annular. Figure 2As shown, the limiter 41 is located between the stopper 1 113 and the stopper 2 21, the push rod 2 is inserted into the limiter 41, the stopper 2 21 is annular, the outer diameter of the stopper 2 21 is larger than the inner diameter of the limiter 41 (i.e., the inner hole diameter of the annular limiter 41), and smaller than the inner diameter of the movable sleeve 4, the diameter of the spring 6 is smaller than the diameter of the limiter 41, and the spring 6 can pass through the limiter 41. The cross section of the push rod 2 between the stopper 2 21 and the mounting seat 22 is square, the stopper 1 113 is also annular, the push rod 2 between the stopper 2 21 and the mounting seat 22 is inserted into the inner hole of the stopper 1 113, and the inner hole of the stopper 1 113 is square, so as to limit the circumferential rotation of the push rod 2.
