Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of medical instruments, in particular to a Chinese medicine acupuncture point treatment cup. Background Art

[0002] External treatment of traditional Chinese medicine is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine. In order to improve the efficacy of external treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, we insist on research, innovation and inheritance. At present, Chinese medicine application is a relatively common external treatment method of traditional Chinese medicine, with good effect and few side effects.

[0003] Traditional cupping requires burning paper to be placed in the cup. After the paper burns, the air in the cup becomes thinner and negative pressure is generated. Then the cup is placed on the affected part, and during the cupping process, the skin or muscle tissue of the human body is sucked and becomes congested, causing blood vessels to dilate, promoting blood circulation, and curing the disease. However, traditional cupping is cumbersome and dirty to use, and the suction between the cup and the skin is difficult to control, and sometimes the patient may be burned. Therefore, in recent years, fireless negative pressure cups have appeared to replace traditional cupping, making it more widely used.

[0004] Chinese patent CN201510461829.6 discloses a ballistic extracorporeal shock wave therapy device, which belongs to the field of medical device technology. The therapy device includes a shock wave gun and an air source, the shock wave gun includes a handle, the handle is provided with an airway, the airway is connected to the air inlet, the barrel is fixedly connected to the handle or integrally arranged and connected to the airway, an impact bullet is arranged in the gap in the barrel, a circular hollow elastic pad is arranged at the rear end of the barrel, the inner diameter of the elastic pad is smaller than the inner diameter of the barrel and larger than the outer diameter of the impact bullet, a massage head is axially slidably arranged at the front end of the barrel, the massage head is axially limited at the front end of the barrel, a massage head reset device is arranged at the front end of the barrel, the air source is connected to the air inlet of the handle through an air path, a control valve is arranged on the air path, and a control system is arranged in the therapy device.

[0005] When the shock wave is transmitted in human tissue, some tiny bubbles will generate micro jets, accompanied by rapid expansion of the bubbles, which is beneficial to dredge the micro blood vessels and accelerate the microcirculation of the treatment area; the shock wave carries energy and directionality, which can produce different tensile stress and compressive stress on the cells. The tensile stress can promote the loosening of soft tissue; the compressive stress helps the cells grow and differentiate, thus healing.

[0006] Since some drugs in conventional Chinese medicine compresses have weak penetration, are not easy to enter the body, and have little effect, how to use cupping and shock wave therapy to improve the efficiency of drugs in Chinese medicine compresses penetrating into the body and improve the therapeutic effect of drugs with weak penetration in Chinese medicine compresses has always been one of the hot topics in this field, and it is also one of the difficulties currently faced.

[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the utility model provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model for which protection is claimed, but merely represents selected embodiments of the utility model.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0030] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a central element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to an element or there may be a central element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation method.

[0031] The utility model is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0032] Example 1: See Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment discloses a Chinese medicine acupoint treatment cup, including a negative pressure cup 1, a medicine storage cup 2 and a shock wave gun 3, which is used for high-penetration and fast-absorption treatment of target acupoints by applying Chinese medicine.

[0033] Specifically, the medicine nano-tank 2 and the negative pressure tank 1 are distributed inside and outside to form a stacked structure.

[0034] Among them, the negative pressure tank 1 is a cylindrical structure, with a negative pressure chamber a inside, the bottom of the negative pressure chamber a is an open structure, a one-way controlled negative pressure joint 11 is provided on the top of the negative pressure tank 1, and a channel is provided inside the negative pressure joint 11 to connect the negative pressure chamber a to the external space of the negative pressure tank 1, the direction from the negative pressure chamber a to the external space is the low resistance direction of the channel, and the direction from the external space to the negative pressure chamber a is the high resistance direction of the channel, specifically, the negative pressure joint 11 is a vertically arranged pipeline structure, and a one-way valve 12 is arranged inside the pipeline structure. When in use, the bottom of the negative pressure tank 1 is placed against the skin surface corresponding to the acupuncture point, and an external air compressor (small air compressor, electric vacuum pump, etc.) is connected to the negative pressure joint 11 to extract the air in the negative pressure chamber a, so that a negative pressure state is formed inside the negative pressure chamber a, which makes the human skin or muscle tissue at this position congested by suction, causing blood vessels to dilate, promoting blood circulation, and providing more favorable absorption conditions for subsequent drug treatment.

[0035] In order to improve the safety of operation and prevent the hands from being scratched during operation due to the sharp structure, such as Figure 1 As shown, the outer corner of the top of the negative pressure tank 1 is provided with a chamfered structure.

[0036] Further, a medicine tank 2 is arranged in the negative pressure chamber a. The medicine tank 2 is also a cylindrical structure, which is spaced apart from the negative pressure tank 1 inside and outside. The medicine tank 2 has a medicine chamber b inside, and the bottom of the medicine chamber b is an open structure. It should be noted that the medicine tank 2 includes a first tank body 21 and a second tank body 22. The bottom of the first tank body 21 is open, and the second tank body 22 is open from top to bottom. The bottom of the first tank body 21 is threadedly connected with the top of the second tank body 22. In this embodiment, the bottom of the first tank body 21 is provided with an external thread structure, and the top of the second tank body 22 is provided with an internal thread structure. The two are meshed and connected by the thread structure. When rotating forward and reverse, the first tank body 21 and the second tank body 22 will change their positions first, which is actually reflected in the change of the length of the entire medicine tank 2 in the longitudinal direction. That is to say, the volume adjustment structure of the medicine chamber b is formed by the mutual forward and reverse rotation of the first tank body 21 and the second tank body 22, which can flexibly adjust the size of the medicine chamber b according to actual use needs to meet the needs of changing the amount of medicine in different use situations. During the specific implementation process, the medicine cavity b is filled with Chinese medicine compresses, and the bottom of the medicine container 2 is accurately pressed on the target acupuncture point. The Chinese medicine compresses inside directly contact the skin at the target acupuncture point, helping the pharmacological components to penetrate the skin or tissue into the body and be absorbed. In other embodiments, the second tank body 22 can be flexibly replaced with the help of a threaded structure. Therefore, a plurality of second tank bodies 22 of different sizes can be configured to meet different usage requirements.

[0037] Furthermore, a shock wave gun 3 is connected to the nano-medicine tank 2, which is a prior art. Its specific structure and working principle will not be described in detail here. Those skilled in the art can select and implement it from the prior art according to the actual working conditions. For the specific structure and principle, reference can be made to the relevant contents in patent CN201510461829.6. The shock wave gun 3 is connected to an external shock wave therapy device, and the shock wave gun 3 forms a directional impact driving source for the nano-medicine tank 2 during operation. Specifically, a through hole 13 is provided at the center position of the top of the negative pressure tank 1. The through hole 13 longitudinally penetrates the negative pressure tank 1. A T-shaped bushing 4 is provided in the through hole 13. The working end of the shock wave gun 3 passes through the bushing 4 and is connected to the top of the nano-medicine tank 2. The bushing 4 can play a sealing connection effect, and the shock wave gun 3 can slide up and down appropriately relative to the bushing 4. This allows the nano-medicine tank 2 to still be in contact with the skin at its bottom after the height changes, and its top can be stably connected to the shock wave gun 3. Combined with Figure 2 The massage head 31 at the working end of the shock wave gun 3 is connected to the top of the medicine tank 2. In this embodiment, the massage head 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the first tank body 21. When working, the up and down impact action of the massage head 31 will drive the entire medicine tank 2 and the Chinese medicine compress inside to move synchronously. This impact activity can make the Chinese medicine compress continuously press and touch one side of the skin, forming a directional material guiding activity, empowering the Chinese medicine inside the medicine tank 2, increasing its entropy value, and efficiently performing directional impact activities, thereby enhancing the penetration ability of drug molecules into the skin and tissues. In other embodiments, a rotating buckle structure can also be set between the massage head 31 and the top of the medicine tank 2 to facilitate the buckle disassembly and assembly between the two.

[0038] It should be noted that the negative pressure tank 1 and the drug storage tank 2 in this embodiment are both made of polymer polyurethane material, which is beneficial to improving their structural strength, reducing the hidden dangers of chemical reactions to drug ingredients, and improving treatment stability and safety.

[0039] Example 2: Based on Example 1, Figure 3 and Figure 4In this embodiment, a thermostat 5 is provided at the bottom of the second tank body 22. The main body of the thermostat 5 is made of thermal insulation material (polystyrene foam, aerogel felt, etc.). The thermostat 5 includes a heating element 51, a temperature sensor 52, a control module and a power module. The control module and the power module are integrated structures, which are electrically connected to the heating element 51 and the temperature sensor 52. The integrated structure specifically adopts a button battery and a control circuit board, which are integrated inside the main structure of the thermostat 5 (not shown in the figure). It is a prior art, and its specific structure and working principle are not repeated here. Those skilled in the art can select and implement from the prior art according to actual operating conditions. The heating element 51 adopts a micro electric heating wire (in other embodiments, graphene heating, carbon fiber heating and other technical means can also be used), which is evenly covered on the outer wall of the second tank body 22 and abuts against it to improve the heat conduction efficiency. Its function is to heat the internal Chinese medicine compress to increase the entropy value of the medicine and help the medicine to be absorbed. The temperature sensor 52 is set at the bottom of the second tank body 22 to detect the actual temperature of the skin at this position to prevent the patient from being scalded by excessive temperature.

[0040] Specifically, since the heating element 51 is made of thermal insulation material, there is a certain temperature difference between the temperature at the heating element 51 and the temperature at the temperature detector. In this embodiment, the heating temperature of the heating element 51 is between 40 and 50°C, and the safety threshold of the temperature sensor 52 is set to 45°C.

[0041] Embodiment 3: Based on Embodiment 1, Figure 5 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, a wrapping piece 6 made of elastic material is provided at the bottom of the negative pressure cup 1, and the wrapping piece 6 covers the bottom and the outer corner area of ​​the bottom of the negative pressure cup 1. The wrapping piece 6 is beneficial to improving the sealing of the bottom of the negative pressure cup 1 and the skin contact area, so that the negative pressure state of the negative pressure chamber a can remain stable during operation.

[0042] Specifically, the wrapping member 6 includes a flange portion 61 at the bottom, the flange portion 61 is attached to the bottom of the second can body 22, an extension portion 62 extending upward is provided above the outer end of the flange portion 61, and the extension portion 62 is attached to the outer wall of the second can body 22. The outer wall of the wrapping member 6 is provided with a pleated portion 63, and the pleated portion 63 has a plurality of longitudinally distributed pleated structures, which makes the wrapping member 6 have better flexibility and elasticity in the longitudinal direction, and can provide appropriate elastic deformation during the pressure change process of the negative pressure chamber a to maintain the sealing of the gap between the negative pressure can 1 and the skin.

[0043] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments may still be modified, or some of the technical features may be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
