When the toggle piece 41 is sideways, the toggle piece 41 is released, and the spring 27 applies a reverse force to the support plate 25 so that the connecting piece 31 presses against the toggle piece 41 in the reverse direction, so that the toggle piece 41 remains sideways and presses down the connecting piece 31, so that the igniter 23 can be kept in the lowered position without manual continuous pressing.

[0025] An automatic ignition device for moxa cones further includes a drag plate 5. The drag plate 5 is square, and on the top surface of the drag plate 5, there are a number of sockets 51 arranged in an array for the vertical insertion and fixation of moxa cones. The number of sockets 51 in each row on the drag plate 5 matches the number of igniters 23, and the spacing between adjacent sockets 51 matches the spacing between adjacent igniters 23. The socket 51 includes a frustum of a cone and a slot provided on the upper base of the frustum of the cone. The moxa cone is fixed by inserting it into the slot. The top surface of the chassis 1 is a horizontal plane, and on both sides of the top surface of the chassis 1, there are limit strips 13. The spacing between the two limit strips 13 matches the width of the drag plate. By placing the drag plate 5 between the two limit strips 13, the drag plate 5 is limited by the limit strips 13 and supported by the chassis 1. The two limit strips 13 conduct active guidance on the drag plate 5 and position the swinging direction of the drag plate 5, making the swinging direction of the drag plate 5 accurate and not easily deviated during movement, facilitating the one-to-one alignment of the moxa cones arranged in rows on the sockets 51 and the several igniters 23. The alignment efficiency is high, resulting in a high ignition efficiency for the moxa cones.

[0026] Further, on one side of the crossbeam of the gantry 2, there is a fixed mounting box 6. Inside the mounting box 6, there are two fans 61 installed. The mounting box 6 is provided with an air outlet 62, and the air outlet 62 faces the side where the igniter 23 is located. The airflow is made to flow through the fans 61 to facilitate the combustion support of the moxa cones during the ignition process of the moxa cones, accelerating the ignition efficiency of the moxa cones.

[0027] Further, feet 14 are provided at the four corners of the bottom surface of the chassis 1. The chassis 1 is elevated by the feet 14, reducing the contact area between the chassis 1 and the workbench or the ground, facilitating the protection of the igniter power supply 11 inside the chassis 1.

[0028] The implementation principle of the automatic ignition device of moxa sticks of the present application is as follows: the dragging plate 5 is dragged to first move the moxa sticks fixed on the row of sockets 51 at the outermost end of the dragging plate 5 to the bottom of the igniter 23 and to align with the igniter 23, and the toggle plate 41 is toggled upward to turn the toggle plate 41 over and press the connecting plate 31 downward, and the connecting plate 31 drives a plurality of igniters 23 to descend synchronously, and the igniters 23 descend to press the support plate 25 to make the support plate 25 descend and compress the spring 27, and when the toggle plate 41 is sideways, the igniter 23 just contacts the moxa sticks, and the reverse action of the spring 27 on the support plate 25 makes the connecting plate 31 reversely press the toggle plate 41, so that the toggle plate 41 remains in the state of sideways pressing the connecting plate 31, so that there is no need for manual pressing of the linkage frame 3 keeps the igniter 23 in contact with the moxa sticks, and the igniter power supply 11 is turned on by pressing the push switch 12. The igniter power supply 11 provides a high-voltage current to the igniter 23 so that the igniter 23 generates an electric spark to ignite the moxa sticks. The airflow near the moxa sticks is made to flow by the fan 61 to assist the combustion of the moxa sticks and accelerate the ignition efficiency of the moxa sticks. After a row of moxa sticks are ignited, the high-voltage current is turned off by pressing the switch 12, and the toggle plate 41 is pushed downward to release the downward pressure on the connecting plate 31. The spring 27 rebounds so that the support plate 25 automatically rises and returns to its original position, driving the igniter 23 to automatically rise and return to its original position. The drag plate 5 is dragged to make the moxa sticks in another row align with the igniter 23, and the above operation is repeated to ignite the moxa sticks on the drag plate 5.

[0029] The present application fixes the moxa stick through the socket 51 on the drag plate 5, and supports the drag plate 5 through the chassis 1. There is no need to manually hold the moxa stick, and the moxa stick can be ignited by simply pressing down the linkage plate. The operation is simple and convenient, which reduces the labor intensity of the user. Through the setting of multiple igniters 23, multiple moxa sticks can be ignited at the same time, making the ignition efficiency of the moxa sticks higher.

[0030] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present application, and that the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
