[0035] A moxibustion clamp, the main body of which is composed of a shell component 100, a clamp component 400, an adjustment component and a smoke filter component 300, wherein the shell component 100 serves as an assembly carrier for the remaining structures of the moxibustion clamp and a fixed carrier for the moxibustion clamp, the clamp component 400 is used to clamp a moxa stick 10 and keep it in the shell component 100 and burn it, the moxa smoke generated by the combustion acts on the human skin through the smoke filter component 300 to achieve treatment, and the automatic adjustment of the position of the clamp component 400 and the moxa stick 10 during the burning process of the moxa stick 10 is achieved through the adjustment component to adjust the treatment process.

[0036] Reference Figure 1, the shell component 100 extends along the axis O. Exemplarily, the shell component 100 is configured as a cylindrical component extending along the axis O, that is, the shell component 100 has a circular cross-section, and a housing space 101 is defined in the shell component 100, and has a first open end 100a and a second open end 100b in the direction of the axis O, wherein the first open end 100a is configured as a contact end between the shell component 100 and the human skin, that is, the first open end 100a of the shell component 100 can be attached to the human skin to achieve fixation of the shell component 100 and the overall structure of the moxibustion clip. In some embodiments, a suction cup or tape is disposed on the first open end 100a to achieve connection with the human skin; Return to Figure 1 Continuing to explain the shell component 100, the second open end 100b of the shell component 100 is configured as an assembly end of the clamp component 400, that is, the clamp component 400 can enter the accommodating area 101 from the second open end 100b of the shell component 100, and be assembled on the subsequent adjustment structure to realize the assembly of the clamp component 400 and the moxibustion clamp, and the clamp component 400 can be disassembled from the second open end 100b after the treatment is completed to replace the moxa stick 10 clamped on the clamp component 400.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the shell component 100 has a main body portion 100c formed by extending from a first opening end 100a along an axis O, and an expansion portion 100d formed by extending from a second opening end 100b along the axis O, wherein a cross-sectional area of ​​the expansion portion 100d is greater than an area of ​​the main body portion 100c, so as to increase the contact area between the shell component 100 and human skin and expand the treatment area.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 The clamp member 400 is provided with a groove for inserting the moxa stick 10. When in use, one end of the moxa stick 10 can be inserted into the groove and fixed, and the other end of the moxa stick 10 burns to produce moxa smoke for treatment. In some embodiments, the size of the groove in the clamp member 400 is adjustable to achieve the clamping and fixing of moxa sticks 10 of different sizes. For example, refer to Figure 4 The side wall of the groove is provided with a notch 11, and a clamping block 12 is provided in the notch 11, the movement of which is controlled by elastic components such as a spring 13. When one end of the moxa stick 10 is inserted into the groove, the clamping block 12 acts on the moxa stick 10 under the action of the spring force 13 to fix the moxa stick 10.

[0039] Reference Figure 1The main body of the adjustment component is composed of an adjustment device. In some embodiments, the adjustment device includes a first magnetic member 200 and a second magnetic member 201. The first magnetic member 200 and the second magnetic member 201 are both configured as annular components and are spaced apart along the axis O direction. Specifically, the first magnetic member 200 is fixed to the shell member 100 and is disposed adjacent to the first opening end 100a. The second magnetic member 201 is assembled on the shell member 100 and is disposed adjacent to the second opening end 100b. There is a first force between the first magnetic member 200 and the second magnetic member 201. Correspondingly, the clamp member 400 is assembled on the second magnetic member 201 and is detachably connected to the second magnetic member 201. Exemplarily, the clamp member 400 and the second magnetic member 201 are threadedly connected. Return to Figure 1 Continuing to explain the adjustment device, the above-mentioned elastic component 202 is extended along the axis O, and the two ends of the elastic component 202 are respectively connected to the first magnetic component 200 and the second magnetic component 201, and has a second force acting on the second magnetic component 201. The above-mentioned second magnetic component 201 can remain stable under the action of the first force and the second force.

Exemplarily, the inner wall of the shell member 100 is provided with a slide groove for the second magnetic member 201 to slide. In this embodiment, the first force is configured to change with the temperature change in the accommodating interval 101, that is, the magnitude of the first force can change with the burning of the moxa stick 10. Exemplarily, it changes with the increase in the burning of the moxa stick 10 or the incomplete combustion of the moxa stick 10. In some embodiments, one of the first magnetic member 200 and the second magnetic member 201 is configured as an electromagnet. Correspondingly, the adjustment component also includes a temperature control circuit 203, which is connected to the first magnetic member 200 and / or the second magnetic member 201, and is configured to be able to adjust the current size based on the temperature change in the accommodating interval 101, thereby adjusting the magnetic force size of the first magnetic member 200 and the second magnetic member 201 to complete the adjustment of the size of the first force. Exemplarily, the temperature control circuit 203 has a thermistor arranged in the accommodating interval 101 to adjust the current size based on temperature changes. Return to Figure 1 Continuing to explain the adjustment component, corresponding to the change of the first force, the above-mentioned second force is configured to change with the expansion and contraction of the elastic component 202 in the direction of the axis O, thereby realizing the position adjustment of the second magnetic component 201 in the direction of the axis O.

[0041] Reference Figure 1 and 3The smoke passing component 300 is arranged in the accommodating interval 101 and is arranged adjacent to the second opening end 100b. In some embodiments, the smoke passing component 300 includes a collecting structure 301 and a filtering structure 302, wherein the collecting structure 301 is arranged along the cross-section of the shell member 100 and is configured to collect the moxa ash produced by the burning of the moxa stick 10, so as to form an isolation between the accommodating interval 101 and the human skin, and prevent the moxa ash from falling on the human skin and causing damage. At the same time, the collecting structure 301 is provided with holes for the moxa smoke to pass through, so that the moxa smoke can act on the human skin to achieve treatment. In some embodiments, the collecting structure 301 is constructed as a dense mesh structure or a honeycomb structure, and a metal material with high thermal conductivity is selected. When the moxa stick 10 contacts the collecting device or the moxa ash falls freely, the moxa ash can be efficiently attached to the collecting net bag, and the collecting net bag is heated to a high temperature to avoid heat loss during the moxibustion process, resulting in poor moxibustion effect. Figure 1 and 3 Continuing to explain the smoke passing component 300, the above-mentioned filtering structure 302 is also arranged along the cross-section of the shell component 100, and includes a skeleton component 303. The skeleton component 303 is provided with a filtering area for accommodating highly adsorbent materials such as activated carbon, that is, the assembly of materials such as activated carbon is achieved based on the skeleton component 303. In some embodiments, the gap of the above-mentioned activated carbon material is adjustable to achieve the adjustment of the amount of smoke passing.
