Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a moxibustion device, in particular to a side-strike ash receiving mechanism of a moxa stick positioning frame. Background Art

[0002] Moxibustion is a method of burning moxa sticks and placing them on acupoints or lesions for fumigation. It is mostly used for close fumigation of the patient's acupoints to promote warming of the meridians and promoting qi and blood circulation.

[0003] After the moxa stick is lit, the part that has been burned will turn into ash during the gradual burning process. When the ash accumulates to a certain amount, it will fall off the moxa stick due to gravity or vibration. Since the burning end of the moxa stick is close to the patient's skin surface, the high-temperature ash will fall directly on the patient's skin surface, causing the risk of burns.

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the prior art, such as the Chinese utility model patent with announcement number "CN219662290U" and name "moxibustion brace", discloses the following technical scheme: "Moxibustion brace, including a brace base, a vertical tube, a first limiting screw hole, a first limiting bolt, a vertical rod, a horizontal bracket, a second limiting screw hole, a second limiting bolt, a ball head universal joint, and a moxibustion clamp. The upper end of the brace base is provided with a vertical tube, the upper tube wall of the vertical tube is provided with a first limiting screw hole, the first limiting bolt is screwed in the first limiting screw hole, the inner hole of the vertical tube is provided with a vertical rod, the vertical rod is adapted to the first limiting bolt, the upper part of the vertical rod extends out of the inner hole of the vertical tube, the top of the vertical rod is provided with a horizontal bracket, the right end of the lower end surface of the horizontal bracket is provided with a ball head universal joint, the ball head universal joint comprises a base, a spherical cavity, a ball head, a ball head connection A connecting shaft, including a base, is arranged at the right end of the lower end face of the horizontal bracket, a spherical cavity is arranged in the base, the lower part of the spherical cavity is connected with the outside world, a ball head is arranged in the spherical cavity, and a ball head connecting shaft extending out of the spherical cavity is arranged at the lower end of the ball head, a second limiting screw hole is arranged on the upper end face of the horizontal bracket, the second limiting screw hole is connected with the spherical cavity, a second limiting bolt is screwed into the second limiting screw hole, the second limiting bolt is adapted to the ball head, and a moxibustion clamp is arranged at the lower end of the ball head connecting shaft. The moxibustion clamp comprises a main pipe, a threaded cover, an air inlet, a spring, a circular ring, a gray iron mesh, and a push rod. The main pipe is arranged at the lower end of the ball head connecting shaft, a threaded cover is screwed on the upper end of the main pipe, a number of air inlet holes are arranged on the threaded cover, a spring is arranged on the lower end face of the threaded cover, a circular ring is arranged on the lower end of the spring, a gray iron mesh is arranged at the lower end of the inner hole of the main pipe, and a push rod is arranged on the upper end face of the gray iron mesh.

[0005] Although the above scheme can realize the positioning of the moxa stick and can receive the ashes of the moxa stick to prevent the ashes from falling on the patient's skin surface, the top rod and the gray iron net are both located below the burning end of the moxa stick, and the gray iron net itself will block the heat and smoke from the burning end of the moxa stick. In particular, when there is ashes falling on the gray iron net, it will block the mesh of the gray iron net, thereby further blocking the heat and smoke from the burning end of the moxa stick from being transmitted to the acupuncture points, thus seriously limiting the moxibustion effect.

[0030] The position of the hammer 12 corresponds to the bottom side of the moxa stick 8; the bottom of the moxa stick 8 is the ignited end of the moxa stick 8, and the high-temperature ash is located at the ignited end. The impact position of the hammer 12 is close to the ignited end of the moxa stick 8.

[0031] The ash hopper 11 corresponds to the upper and lower positions of the bottom of the moxa stick 8, so that the ash falling from the moxa stick 8 falls into the ash hopper 11 to realize ash collection.

[0032] The lifting sleeve 3 is sleeved on the vertical rod 2, and a first screw 4 is arranged on the side of the lifting sleeve 3. The first screw 4 is located in the screw hole of the lifting sleeve 3 and abuts against the side of the vertical rod 2. The first screw 4 is used to fix the lifting sleeve 3.
