[0024] A multifunctional foot moxibustion instrument, see Figure 1- Figure 4 , including an organism 1, on which a stepping area 2 is symmetrically arranged, a heating element 3 matching the stepping area 2 is arranged inside the organism 1, the heating element 3 is connected to a control device 4, the control device 4 is connected to a pulse generator, a conductive electrode is arranged on the organism 1, and the conductive electrode is electrically connected to the pulse generator, and the control device 4 is used to switch to the heating element 3 to heat the stepping area 2, or switch to start the pulse generator to make the conductive electrode emit an electric pulse to stimulate the acupuncture points on the foot.

[0025] Furthermore, a plurality of massage convex points 5 are protruding outwards from the body 1 between adjacent stepping areas 2 , and the conductive electrode is arranged below the massage convex points 5 .

[0026] Furthermore, the conductive electrode is arranged on the footing area 2 .

[0027] Furthermore, the machine body 1 is bent upward to form an operating panel 6 , and the operating panel 6 is located above the stepping area 2 .

[0028] Furthermore, the body 1 includes an upper shell 71 and a lower shell 72 . The upper shell 71 is provided with a plurality of plug-in portions 711 , and the lower shell 72 is provided with positioning posts 721 for the plug-in portions 711 to be inserted into.

[0029] Furthermore, the longitudinal cross-section of the massage protrusion 5 is a hemispherical surface.

[0030] Furthermore, a first switch 61 and a second switch 62 are provided on the operation panel 6 . The first switch 61 is used to control the start or disconnection of the heating element 3 , and the second switch 62 is used to control the start or disconnection of the pulse generator.

[0031] The working principle of this utility model is:

[0032] The foot moxibustion instrument of the present application has two functions: pulse and heating. As an example 1, taking the conductive electrode body set in the foot area 2 as an example, when in use, both feet are placed on the foot area 2, and the first switch 61 is pressed. The first switch 61 activates the heating element 3 through the control device 4 to heat the foot area 2. Since the soles of the feet are rich in blood vessels, heating the soles of the feet in the foot area 2 can promote blood circulation, accelerate the body's metabolism, and relax the human body. When the pulse function needs to be activated, the first switch 61 can be turned off and the second switch 62 can be activated. The second switch 62 activates the pulse generator through the control device 4 to generate a pulse current. The pulse current can be transmitted to the foot area 2 through the conductive electrode body and then act on the soles of the feet, thereby stimulating the meridians through electrical conduction to play the role of dredging the meridians. When only the soles of the feet need to be massaged, the massage bumps 5 can be stepped on. The massage bumps 5 have an upward force on the soles of the feet, which can stimulate the soles of the feet and promote blood circulation. In the above technology, the massage convex points 5 can be set at the position of the foot-treading area 2 corresponding to the acupuncture points on the sole of the foot. In this way, the acupuncture points on the sole of the foot can be stimulated accurately.

[0033] As a second embodiment, taking the conductive electrode body disposed at the massage protrusion 5 as an example, when the pulse function is switched to, the foot is placed on the massage protrusion 5. At this time, the conductive electrode body is located below the massage protrusion 5. Then, when the foot steps on the massage protrusion, the pulse current is transmitted through the conductive electrode body to the massage protrusion, thereby clearing the meridians on the sole of the foot. As a preferred embodiment, the massage protrusion is configured with a structure having a hemispherical longitudinal cross-section to reduce damage to the sole of the foot caused by the massage protrusion.

[0034] Based on the above technical solution, because the user typically sits on a stool and places their feet on the footrest area 2, the body 1 is configured to bend upward, with the bent portion forming an operating panel 6. A first switch 61 and a second switch 62 are disposed on the operating panel 6, thereby allowing the user to conveniently activate the body 1 and switch between the pulse and heating functions. In an actual design, the first switch 61 can be configured to be electrically connected to the control device 4 to control the start or stop of the heating element 3, and the second switch 62 can be configured to be electrically connected to the control device 4 to control the start or stop of the pulse generator.

[0035] On the basis of the above technical solution, the body 1 can be set to a connection mode of an upper shell 71 and a lower shell 72, and a plurality of plug-in parts 711 are provided on the upper shell 71, and a plurality of positioning columns 721 for the plug-in parts 711 to be plugged in and matched are provided on the lower shell 72. By this arrangement, a fixed connection between the upper shell 71 and the lower shell 72 can be achieved; then the space enclosed by the upper shell 71 and the lower shell 72 can be used to install the heating element 3, the pulse generator, the control device 4, etc.; the installation method of the heating element 3, the pulse generator, the control device 4, etc. is a mature technical means in this technical field, so this article will not go into details about its working principle.

[0036] This application has a pulse function, which stimulates the meridians of the soles of the feet through electrical conduction to dredge the meridians. It also has a heating function. By heating the soles of the feet, it can promote blood circulation, accelerate the body's metabolism, and relax the body. The whole process does not produce ash to be cleaned, and the setting of the massage points can accurately stimulate the acupuncture points for better results.

[0037] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art from this disclosure that various changes or modifications may be made to the present invention without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention as defined in the claims. Therefore, the detailed description of the disclosed embodiments is intended to illustrate rather than limit the present invention, which shall be defined by the claims.
