Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of acupuncture practice devices, in particular to a device used for acupuncture clinical practice. Background Art

[0002] Acupuncture is the general term for acupuncture and moxibustion. Acupuncture refers to inserting needles into the patient's body at a certain angle under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine theory, and using acupuncture techniques such as twisting and lifting to stimulate specific parts of the human body to achieve the purpose of treating diseases. The insertion point is called acupoints of the human body, or acupoints for short. Moxibustion is to burn and fumigate certain acupoints on the body surface with pre-made moxibustion sticks or moxibustion grass, and use heat stimulation to prevent and treat diseases. The principle of acupuncture is to puncture acupoints, use the conduction function of meridian acupoints, and apply certain operating techniques to dredge the meridians and restore the function of regulating the qi, blood, yin and yang of the human organs, so as to achieve the purpose of treating diseases. Acupuncture has the functions of dredging meridians, harmonizing yin and yang, and strengthening the body and eliminating evil, and can be used to treat a variety of diseases.

[0003] At present, acupuncture practice is a necessary stage for every beginner. Without a certain amount of finger strength and skilled techniques, it is difficult to insert the needle at will and perform various manipulations. Since beginners are unfamiliar with the needle insertion techniques and are psychologically nervous during the needle insertion process, when students practice acupuncture with each other, it often causes unbearable pain to the person being pierced. Acupuncture practice devices are usually used for learning, aiming to help acupuncturists and students practice and improve their acupuncture skills in a safe environment. However, due to the different degrees of skin relaxation of people of different ages, the existing practice devices cannot adjust it, and the practice effect is poor. Utility Model Content

[0018] The present invention is further described below through specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] The present embodiment describes a device for clinical practice of acupuncture, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it includes a horizontally arranged base 5, through which the hand model 1 is placed vertically on the table, which is convenient for medical staff to perform acupuncture practice;

[0021] A hand model 1 is vertically fixed on the top of the base 5. The hand model 1 has the same structure as a human hand. The hand model 1 is made of plastic or ceramic material, which is cheap and has a long service life.

[0022] The outer wall of the hand model 1 is wrapped with a tissue simulation layer 3, which simulates the stripe morphology of skeletal muscles under the skin. When the fine needles penetrate into the tissue simulation layer 3, hand feeling feedback is formed, simulating the feeling of the fine needles penetrating into the acupuncture points of the hand.

[0023] The tissue simulation layer 3 is wrapped with a skin simulation layer 2 on the outside, and the skin simulation layer 2 simulates human skin and simulates the feeling of the fine needle piercing the skin of the acupuncture point;

[0024] The movable ends of the skin simulation layer 2 are fixed with fixing strips 6, the skin simulation layer 2 is wrapped around the outside of the hand model 1, the two movable ends of the skin simulation layer 2 are located at the back of the hand model 1, and the two fixing strips 6 are fixed to the two movable ends of the skin simulation layer 2 respectively; at least three pull rings 7 are fixed on the fixing strips 6, such as Figure 2 As shown, at least three pull rings 7 are fixed to the right end of the left fixing strip 6, and at least three pull rings 7 are fixed to the left end of the right fixing strip 6; a cable tie 8 is wound around the pull rings 7 on the two fixing strips 6, and the cable tie 8 passes through two pull rings 7 at the same height. After the movable end of the cable tie 8 is passed through the cable tie 8 buckle, the movable end of the cable tie 8 is tightened, and the two pull rings 7 at the same height are brought closer to the middle, so as to change the relaxation degree of the skin simulation layer 2 and simulate human skin of different age groups. The number of cable ties 8 is adjusted according to the number of pull rings 7, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, when there are four groups of pull rings 7, the number of cable ties 8 is also four. The cable tie 8 is a prior art and is usually used to tie multiple data cables. This paragraph of text as a whole constitutes an adjustment component for adjusting the degree of relaxation of the skin simulation layer 2. When the adjustment component is in use, hold the cable tie 8 by its buckle and the movable end of the cable tie 8. The movable end of the cable tie 8 passes through the pull rings 7 at the same height in turn and then enters the cable tie buckle. Then, the movable end of the cable tie 8 is tightened to make the two pull rings 7 at the same height move closer to the middle, thereby changing the degree of relaxation of the skin simulation layer 2, simulating human skin of different age groups, and improving the feedback degree of the needle piercing the skin simulation layer 2. Of course, the adjustment component can also use a pull rope. After the pull rope is passed through the two pull rings 7 at the same height, the degree of relaxation of the skin simulation layer 2 is adjusted by changing the degree of tension of the pull rope. After the pull rope is tightened, the pull rope is tied to maintain the degree of relaxation of the skin simulation layer 2.

[0025] When this embodiment is used, the base 5 is fixed on the table, and the skin simulation layer 2 and the tissue simulation layer 3 are used to simulate the feeling of the fine needle piercing the skin and muscle respectively. The feedback of the fine needle feel is used to enable medical staff to practice acupuncture. The looseness of the skin simulation layer 2 is adjusted by the adjustment component to meet the simulation requirements of human skin of different ages, thereby improving the effect of acupuncture training.

[0026] Example 2

[0027] This embodiment further illustrates the technology. Figure 1As shown, the tissue simulation layer 3 is made of hydrogel. Hydrogel is a prior art. Hydrogel is composed of polymers and can form a striped morphology similar to mammalian skeletal muscle. It can realize the feedback needle sensation during acupuncture, such as muscle winding sensation and needle tip blocking sensation, thereby better simulating human muscles. By changing the thickness and hardness of the tissue simulation layer 3, human muscles of different age groups can be simulated, making the feedback needle sensation more realistic and improving the training effect.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the skin simulation layer 2 is made of TPE material. TPE material is a prior art and is a thermoplastic elastomer material. It has the high elasticity, high strength and high resilience of rubber, and also has the processing performance of plastic. It can be processed by thermoplastic plastic processing methods such as injection molding, extrusion and blow molding. TPE material also has the characteristics of light transmittance, aging resistance, weather resistance, ozone resistance, chemical medium resistance, etc., and is halogen-free and non-toxic, and can better simulate human skin.

[0029] This embodiment further illustrates the technology. Figure 1 As shown, a needle hole pad 4 is horizontally fixed to the front side wall of the base 5, and the needle hole pad 4 is used to store the needles required for acupuncture training.

[0030] The pinhole pad 4 is made of silicone rubber material, which has a tight structure and a good puncture effect of the acupuncture needle. When the acupuncture needle penetrates the pinhole pad 4, it plays a limiting role, thereby increasing the stability of the insertion of the acupuncture needle, making it less likely to shake, playing a good temporary storage role, and providing convenience for the use of the acupuncture needle.

[0031] Example 3

[0032] This embodiment further illustrates the technology. Figure 3 As shown, a film 9 is pasted on the skin simulation layer 2 at the palm of the hand model 1. The film 9 is made of a transparent material, which is commonly seen as a cling film. The film 9 is pasted on the skin simulation layer 2 by glue or double-sided tape.

[0033] The film 9 is provided with marking points 10 for marking acupoints. The acupoints on the palm of the human body are marked by the marking points 10. Medical staff can determine the acupoints for acupuncture according to the guidance of the marking points 10, which is beneficial to acupuncture training and helps medical staff remember the locations of the acupoints and improve the training effect.
