Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of moxibustion therapy technology, specifically to a smokeless moxibustion therapy device. Background Technology

[0002] In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), moxibustion is a widely used treatment method. It involves adding medicinal herbs to slowly burning natural plant fibers, allowing the medicinal vapors and high-temperature fumigation to penetrate the skin and reach the affected area, producing pharmacochemical and physical effects to achieve therapeutic results. However, this treatment method has a problem: current moxibustion processes require igniting moxa sticks. The burning of these sticks creates an open flame at the tip, posing a fire hazard. Furthermore, the moxa sticks produce smoke-like particles accompanying the medicinal vapors. When these particles are inhaled, they can cause discomfort and negatively impact health. Therefore, developing a novel moxibustion treatment device to overcome these problems is a direction that those skilled in the art need to research. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical objective of this invention is to provide a smokeless moxibustion treatment device that can achieve smokeless moxibustion treatment, reduce fire hazards, and reduce discomfort caused by inhaling small smoke particles dispersed into the air during moxibustion.

[0004] This utility model discloses a smokeless moxibustion therapy device, which includes:

[0005] A moxibustion column, wherein the tail end of the column body is provided with a first opening, and the moxibustion column is provided with a positioning cavity that leads to the first opening;

[0006] An electric heating column, wherein the head end of the electric heating column is inserted into the positioning cavity through the first opening, and the outer wall of the electric heating column is interference-fitted with the inner wall of the positioning cavity;

[0007] A power source, which is electrically connected to the heating column;

[0008] The filter tube comprises an inner cylindrical tube and an outer cylindrical tube in a concentric cylindrical structure. A sandwich layer is provided between the outer wall of the inner cylindrical tube and the inner wall of the outer cylindrical tube, and a porous filter medium is installed in the sandwich layer. The head end of the moxibustion column extends into the filter tube, and there is a gap between the outer wall of the moxibustion column and the inner wall of the inner cylindrical tube. Air guide holes are distributed on the wall of the inner cylindrical tube to guide air through both sides of the inner cylindrical tube.

[0009] The outer shell has several first air holes at one end and is electrically connected to the interlayer at the other end.

[0010] This technical solution involves inverting the outer shell and moving the head of the moxibustion column above the patient's acupoint. The heating column is then heated via a power source, and the heated column, through a positioning cavity, heats the moxibustion column, achieving the desired moxibustion effect. Since no open flame is generated on the surface of the moxibustion column during this process, the risk of fire is reduced. Simultaneously, the heating of the moxibustion column creates a lighter-than-the-surround-air hot airflow. This hot airflow carries the smoke particles accompanying the medicinal vapor, enters the interlayer between the outer wall of the inner tube and the inner wall of the outer tube through the air guide hole, and is filtered out by a porous filter medium. The hot airflow then passes through this interlayer into the outer shell and is finally discharged into the air through the first air vent. This effectively filters the smoke-like particles accompanying the medicinal vapor, reducing the likelihood of these particles entering the air and being inhaled, causing discomfort. In practice, to extend the device's lifespan, the porous filter medium is further configured as a detachable component.

[0011] Preferably, it further includes: a diversion device, which is installed in the housing and electrically connected to the power source, and the diversion device is provided with an air nozzle, which is used to form a directional airflow output from the air nozzle;

[0012] The bottom of the heating column is provided with a second opening, and the heating column is provided with a flow guiding cavity that leads to the second opening; a plurality of second air holes that lead to the flow guiding cavity are opened on the side wall of the heating column; the air nozzle is positioned directly opposite the second opening.

[0013] By adopting this technical solution, during the moxibustion treatment, a jet of gas is formed under the action of the drainage device, which enters the interior of the electric heating column through the second opening. This jet of gas enters the moxibustion column through the second vent, accelerating the output of medicinal components in the moxibustion column and achieving the technical effect of improving the treatment speed.

[0014] Preferably, the outer casing includes a power supply chamber and a circulation chamber, with the power supply and the drainage device installed in the power supply chamber; the tail end of the heating column is located in the power supply chamber, and the head end of the heating column extends out of the power supply chamber and is inserted into the positioning cavity through the first opening; the interlayer is electrically connected to the circulation chamber, and the power supply chamber and the circulation chamber are respectively electrically connected to the first air hole.

[0015] By adopting this technical solution, the power supply is prevented from directly contacting the hot airflow that enters the casing through the filter tube, thereby improving the power supply's lifespan and stability.

[0016] Preferably, the outer tube is made of heat-insulating material.

[0017] By adopting this technical solution, the temperature of the outer tube is reduced during moxibustion treatment to avoid burns caused by accidental hand contact with the outer tube.

[0018] Preferably, heating wires or heating elements are distributed on the wall of the inner tube, and the power source is electrically connected to the heating wires or heating elements.

[0019] By adopting this technical solution, the inner tube is heated by an electric power source during the moxibustion treatment, thereby reducing the condensation of hot air carrying smoke particles on the tube wall and making subsequent cleaning easier.

[0020] Preferably, the head end of the heating column is connected to a conical head.

[0021] By adopting this technical solution, which involves an interference fit between the outer wall of the heating column and the inner wall of the positioning cavity, the conical head is inserted into the positioning cavity first when the heating column is inserted, making the insertion process smoother.

[0022] Preferably, it further includes: a control panel, which is fixedly installed on the surface of the housing, the control panel is connected to the power supply signal, and the control panel is used to control the operation of the power supply.

[0023] By adopting this technical solution, the control process is simplified using a control panel.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has achieved the following technical advancements:

[0025] First, this invention enables smokeless moxibustion treatment, reducing fire hazards and minimizing discomfort caused by inhaling small smoke particles released into the air during moxibustion.

[0026] Secondly, this invention can accelerate the output of medicinal components inside the moxa stick, achieving a rapid therapeutic effect.

[0027] Thirdly, this invention can reduce the temperature of the outer tube, thus avoiding burns caused by accidental hand contact with the outer tube.

[0028] Fourth, this invention can prevent the condensation of hot air carrying smoke particles on the inner wall of the tube, making subsequent cleaning more convenient.

[0029] Finally, the system of this invention is easy to operate, easy to prepare and implement, and easy to use clinically. Attached Figure Description

[0038] The moxibustion column 100 has a first opening at its tail end, and a positioning cavity 110 is provided inside the moxibustion column 100, which is connected to the first opening. The head end of the electric heating column 200 is inserted into the positioning cavity 110 through the first opening.

[0039] The outer surface of the outer casing 500 is provided with a control panel 540, and a plurality of first vents 530 are distributed at one end of the outer casing 500. The outer casing 500 includes a power supply chamber 510 and a flow chamber 520. The power supply 300 and the drainage device 600 are installed in the power supply chamber 510. The tail end of the heating column 200 is located in the power supply chamber 510. A positioning partition is provided at one end of the power supply chamber 510. The head end of the heating column 200 passes through the positioning partition and extends out of the power supply chamber 510, and is inserted into the positioning cavity 110 through the first opening. The outer wall of the heating column 200 and the inner wall of the positioning cavity 110 are press-fitted. The positioning partition is configured to fix the relative positions of the heating column 200 and the power supply chamber 510. The power supply 300 is electrically connected to the heating column 200 and supplies power to the heating column 200. The heating column 200 heats up when powered on. The bottom of the heating column 200 is provided with a second opening, and a flow guiding cavity is provided inside the heating column 200, which leads to the second opening. Several second air holes 210 are opened on the side wall of the heating column 200, which leads to the flow guiding cavity. The flow guiding device 600 is electrically connected to the power supply 300 and supplies power to the flow guiding device 600. The flow guiding device 600 is provided with an air nozzle 610, and when the flow guiding device 600 is powered on, it forms a directional airflow output from the air nozzle 610. The air nozzle 610 is positioned directly opposite the second opening.

[0040] The filter tube 400 includes an inner cylindrical tube 410 and an outer cylindrical tube 420 in a concentric cylindrical structure. A sandwich layer is provided between the outer wall of the inner cylindrical tube 410 and the inner wall of the outer cylindrical tube 420. A porous filter medium 430 is detachably installed in the sandwich layer. One end of the sandwich layer is electrically connected to the flow chamber 520. The head end of the moxibustion column 100 extends into the filter tube 400, and there is a gap between the outer wall of the moxibustion column 100 and the inner wall of the inner cylindrical tube 410. Air guide holes 411 are distributed on the wall of the inner cylindrical tube 410, connecting both sides of the wall. The sandwich layer is electrically connected to the flow chamber 520, and the power supply chamber 510 and the flow chamber 520 are respectively electrically connected to the first air hole 530.

[0041] The control panel 540 is connected to the power supply 300 by a signal, and the control panel 540 is used to control the on / off working state of the power supply 300.

[0042] In practice, its working process is as follows:

[0043] An electric heating column 200 is inserted into the tail end of the moxibustion column 100. The head end of the moxibustion column 100 is aligned with the acupoint. The power supply 300 is powered on via the control panel 540, and the power supply 300 simultaneously supplies power to the electric heating column 200 and the drainage device 600. The electric heating column 200 begins to heat, and at the same time, the drainage device 600 creates an airflow that is blown into the drainage cavity inside the electric heating column 200. The electric heating column 200, in its heated state, heats the moxibustion column 100 through the positioning cavity 110, causing medicinal vapor to be generated on the surface of the moxibustion column 100, thus achieving the moxibustion effect on the acupoint. Since no open flame is generated on the surface of the moxibustion column 100 during the above process, the fire hazard during moxibustion is reduced. Simultaneously, due to heating, the surface of the moxibustion column 100 generates a hot airflow that is lighter than the surrounding air. This hot airflow carries the smoke particles associated with the medicinal vapor, enters through the air guide hole 411 into the interlayer between the outer wall of the inner circular tube 410 and the inner wall of the outer circular tube 420, and is filtered out by the porous filter medium 430. The hot airflow then passes through the interlayer into the circulation chamber 520 and is finally discharged into the air through the first air hole 530. This achieves the filtration of smoke-like particles associated with the medicinal vapor, thereby reducing the likelihood of these particles entering the air and being inhaled, causing discomfort to the body.

[0044] In this example: to reduce the temperature of the outer tube 420 during moxibustion treatment and avoid burns caused by accidental hand contact with the outer tube 420, the outer tube 420 is made of heat-insulating material, specifically, ceramic.

[0045] In this example: to reduce condensation of hot air carrying smoke particles on the wall of the inner circular tube 410, making subsequent cleaning easier, heating wires or heating elements are distributed on the wall of the inner circular tube 410, and the power supply 300 is electrically connected to the heating wires or heating elements. When the power supply 300 is powered on, the inner circular tube 410 is heated simultaneously.

[0046] In this example: To facilitate the insertion of the heating column 200 into the moxibustion column 100, a conical head 220 is connected to the head end of the heating column 200.

[0047] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
