Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical equipment, and in particular relates to an integrated induction heating fire needle therapeutic instrument with a balance bar. Background Art

[0002] Fire needle therapy is an essential component of traditional Chinese medicine, with a history dating back thousands of years. Its earliest form can be found in the "Refined Needle" section of the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine. Fire needle therapy combines the therapeutic methods of acupuncture and moxibustion. Its basic principle is to heat needles and quickly insert them into acupuncture points, producing a local burning sensation. This method regulates qi and blood, dispels cold and dampness, and relieves pain. Fire needle therapy is simple, effective, and has few side effects. It can effectively relieve muscle tension and pain, promote blood circulation, and enhance immunity. It is highly effective in treating rheumatic diseases, chronic soft tissue injuries, and neuralgia.

[0003] Current fire needle treatments primarily use open flames (alcohol lamps, charcoal fires, etc.) to heat the needles. Precise needle temperature control is difficult, and temperatures that are too high or too low can compromise treatment effectiveness. Furthermore, safety is poor, posing a potential safety hazard. Compared to conventional acupuncture, fire needle therapy is more complex and requires extensive experience and skill. Commercially available electric fire needles, primarily pen-type, are difficult to regulate and control, failing to meet the required technical requirements for fire needle operation. The difference in shape between electric fire needles and traditional fire needles also hinders physicians' ability to maintain the familiarity, training, and comfort of using traditional needles.

[0004] Therefore, this scheme has designed an induction heating electric fire needle therapy device that can easily adjust the heating element to a position that suits the physician's usage habits. It is used to heat commonly used fire needles on the market. This scheme can avoid the safety hazards of open flame heating, realize heating temperature control, and maintain the operating feel of traditional fire needles. Because the distance between the heating coil and the fire needle operation treatment can be adjusted by moving the balance rod, the temperature drop from the fire needle heating to the insertion can be kept small, thereby ensuring the temperature required for treatment.
