Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical care equipment, in particular to an ear acupuncture instrument. Background Art
[0002] The ears are covered with numerous acupuncture points, and regular ear massage can be beneficial for health. An ear massager is disclosed in the prior art, with application publication number CN 104800070 A, published on July 29, 2015. The patent's operating principle is that when a lead screw stepper motor 9 rotates, it drives a slide plate to move left and right. A micro-stepping motor is fixed to the slide plate. As the slide plate moves, the micro-stepping motor drives a rotating plate by rotating forward and reverse, adjusting the rotation angle of a micro-vibration motor on the rotating plate, thereby achieving two-dimensional movement. The micro-vibration motor is fixed to the U-shaped tongue portion of the rotating plate. When the micro-vibration motor operates, it generates high-frequency vibrations, which in turn cause the U-shaped tongue portion of the rotating plate to generate high-frequency oscillations. A small protruding dot on the back of the U-shaped tongue portion of the rotating plate acts like a massage needle. When the U-shaped tongue portion of the rotating plate generates high-frequency oscillations, the dot contacts a fitted silicone gasket underneath, transmitting the vibrations to the corresponding acupuncture points on the ear, thus achieving a massage effect. Although the existing technology can massage the acupuncture points on the ear, the massage is provided by high-frequency vibration, which easily causes the entire massager to move, and the massage position of the acupuncture points is inaccurate. In addition, the structure of the driving mechanism is relatively complex, the overall weight is heavy, and it is not light enough. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model aims to provide a portable ear acupuncture instrument with accurate acupoint massage position.
[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose of the utility model, the ear acupuncture instrument of the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0005] An ear acupuncture instrument includes a headband that is put on the head, with earmuffs at both ends of the headband that cooperate with the left and right ears; the earmuffs include a cover body, a massage head and a control module, one end of the massage head contacts the ear acupuncture point, and the other end of the massage head is set on a fixing member, which is installed on the cover body and is provided with a plurality of fixing members, each of which is provided with a plurality of massage heads; the control module is electrically connected to each fixing member respectively, and the fixing member and the massage head are both made of conductive material. The control module is used to provide pulse current to the massage head.
[0006] Preferably, the cover body includes a front cover and a rear cover, the front cover and the rear cover surround and form an inner cavity, and the control module is placed in the inner cavity.
[0007] Preferably, the earmuff further includes a battery electrically connected to the control module, and the battery is disposed in the inner cavity.
[0008] Preferably, a side of the cover body facing the ear forms an accommodating space, and the ear extends into the accommodating space.
[0009] Preferably, a silicone gasket is provided in the receiving space to contact the ear, the silicone gasket is adapted to the shape of the ear, and the silicone gasket is provided with a through hole for the massage head to pass through. By providing the silicone gasket to directly contact the ear, comfort is provided during use.
[0010] Preferably, the end of the massage head contacting the acupuncture point is configured as an arc structure.
[0011] Preferably, the headband is arranged in a circle around the head. By arranging the headband in a circle around the head, the stability of the ear acupuncture instrument during use is ensured, and the accuracy of the acupoint massage position is further ensured.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0013] 1. The utility model massages the acupuncture points of the ear by setting a massage head. The control module provides a pulse current to the massage head to stimulate the acupuncture points, thereby achieving a massage effect. The overall structure is simple, lightweight, and practical. It also avoids the high-frequency vibration form in the prior art, so it is not easy to cause displacement, ensuring the accuracy of the acupuncture point massage position.
[0014] 2. Since there are many acupuncture points on the ear, there are many massage heads for each acupuncture point. Therefore, modular installation is carried out. Several fixings are set on the cover body, and several massage heads are set on each fixing. The fixings and massage heads are made of conductive materials. The control module is electrically connected to each fixing, so the pulse current output by the control module is transmitted to the massage head through the fixing, and then stimulates the ear acupuncture points. Through this structural setting, the control module only needs to be electrically connected to the fixing, which is easy to install. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
