Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to an ignition gun for cupping. Background Technology

[0002] Cupping is a tool used in cupping therapy. It uses a fire method to create negative pressure inside the cupping jar, which allows the jar to adhere to the patient's skin and cause local blood stasis. This achieves the effects of clearing the meridians, promoting blood circulation, reducing swelling and relieving pain, and dispelling wind and cold. A cupping ignition gun is a tool used to ignite the inside of the cupping jar.

[0003] Existing cupping ignition guns typically use a flash flame method to heat the cupping jar. This involves using tools such as tweezers and wooden sticks to fix an alcohol-soaked cotton ball in place, then igniting the cotton ball with an ignition gun, and finally placing the burning cotton ball into the cupping jar, rotating it several times, and then removing it.

[0004] This method seems simple, but it has many problems. First, the cotton balls are consumables, causing extra waste. Second, the flash fire method has a short fire time, and the cotton swab is very likely to still be burning after it is removed, making it difficult to extinguish. This is especially true if a lot of alcohol is added, making it even more difficult to extinguish the flames and increasing the risk of fire. Third, alcohol may drip and cause adverse medical events such as burns to the patient's skin. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an ignition gun for cupping therapy to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an ignition gun for cupping, comprising a shell, a handle connected to one side of the shell, and a control component connected to one side of the handle, a spring connecting the control component and the handle, and a micro switch installed inside the handle; an alcohol bottle penetrating through the bottom of the shell; ventilation openings provided in the middle of one side of the shell and one side of the bottom of the top plate; a top plate connected to the top of the shell, and a fixing ring penetrating through the middle of the top of the top plate, with a smokeless lamp wick fixed inside the fixing ring; and sealing gaskets connected to both sides of the top of the top plate.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the cupping jar is first placed on top of the sealing gasket. Then, the control component is pressed to compress the spring and trigger the microswitch. After the control component is pressed, it moves away from the vent, allowing outside air to enter the cupping jar through the vent. The igniter ignites the alcohol absorbed by the smokeless lamp wick, causing a flame to burn inside the cupping jar. After ignition, the control component is released. At this time, the spring drives the control component to reset and block the vent, preventing outside air from entering. Then, the flame inside the cupping jar extinguishes due to the lack of air. After the flame extinguishes, the control component is gently pressed again to prevent the microswitch from being triggered. At the same time, outside air can enter the cupping jar through the vent, preventing the negative pressure inside the cupping jar from sucking the sealing gasket and making the cupping jar difficult to remove. Then, the cupping jar is quickly picked up and placed on the patient's body for cupping.

[0008] Furthermore, the control element is slidably connected to the handle, and the control element abuts against the micro switch and the vent respectively.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the staff presses the control component to compress the spring and trigger the micro switch. After the control component is pressed, it moves away from the vent, allowing outside air to enter the fire pot through the vent. After ignition, the staff releases the control component, at which point the spring drives the control component to reset and block the vent to prevent outside air from entering. Afterward, the flame inside the fire pot is extinguished because there is no air supply.

[0010] Furthermore, the ventilation opening in the middle of one side of the outer shell is connected to the ventilation opening on the bottom side of the top plate, and the cross-section of the ventilation opening is "L" shaped.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the control component is moved away from the vent after being pressed, allowing outside air to enter the fire pot through the vent, thus facilitating alcohol combustion.

[0012] Furthermore, one end of the smokeless lamp wick extends into the lower part of the alcohol bottle.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when the smokeless lamp wick is not lit, it first absorbs the alcohol in the alcohol bottle through capillary effect, so that the tip of the smokeless lamp wick is covered with alcohol. When the micro switch is triggered, the igniter starts and ignites the alcohol absorbed at the tip of the smokeless lamp wick, causing the flame to burn inside the fire pot. At the same time, the smokeless lamp wick utilizes the wick effect, that is, when the tip of the smokeless lamp wick is lit, the tip temperature is high. The smokeless lamp wick generates a guiding effect, causing the alcohol in the alcohol bottle to flow towards the direction of higher temperature and generate combustion. The heat generated by combustion then causes the alcohol in the alcohol bottle to continue to flow upward, forming a cycle.

[0014] Furthermore, the sealing gasket is made of graphite packing material.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing gasket made of graphite packing material has good elasticity and softness, and can fit tightly with the cupping jar to prevent air leakage. At the same time, graphite packing has excellent high temperature resistance, and even the heat generated by alcohol combustion is unlikely to damage the sealing gasket.

[0016] Furthermore, the alcohol bottle is detachably connected to the outer casing via threads, and the retaining ring is detachably connected to the top plate via threads.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the alcohol in the alcohol bottle is exhausted, the staff can rotate the alcohol bottle to remove the empty alcohol bottle, and then place the new alcohol bottle at the bottom of the outer shell and screw it into the outer shell, thereby completing the replacement of the alcohol bottle.

[0018] Furthermore, a battery compartment is installed on one side of the outer casing, and an igniter is installed on the top of the top plate. Both the battery compartment and the igniter are electrically connected to a micro switch.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the micro switch is triggered, power is supplied to the igniter through the battery compartment, and the igniter starts to ignite the alcohol absorbed at the top of the smokeless lamp wick.

[0020] Furthermore, the retaining ring is detachably connected to the top plate via a threaded connection.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, when the smokeless lamp wick is damaged, the staff can rotate the retaining ring to remove it, thereby pulling out the smokeless lamp wick together. Then, the staff prepares a new retaining ring with the smokeless lamp wick, places this retaining ring in the middle of the top of the top plate and screws it into the top plate, thus completing the replacement of the retaining ring and the smokeless lamp wick.

[0022] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0023] This invention utilizes an alcohol bottle, a sealing gasket, a vent, a handle, a control component, a micro switch, and a spring. First, the cupping jar is placed on top of the sealing gasket. Then, pressing the control component compresses the spring and triggers the micro switch. Once pressed, the control component moves away from the vent, allowing outside air to enter the cupping jar. An igniter then ignites the alcohol absorbed by the smokeless lamp wick, causing a flame inside the cupping jar that heats it. This eliminates the need for cotton balls, avoiding waste and preventing alcohol spills that could burn the patient or ignite surrounding objects. To ensure patient safety, after ignition, release the control unit. The spring-driven control unit will then reset, blocking the ventilation opening to prevent outside air from entering. The flame inside the cupping jar will then extinguish due to the lack of air, facilitating fire extinguishing, reducing fire hazards, and improving safety. After the flame is extinguished, gently press the control unit again to prevent the microswitch from being triggered. This allows outside air to enter the cupping jar through the ventilation opening, preventing negative pressure inside the jar from trapping the sealing gasket and making it difficult to remove. Then, quickly lift the cupping jar and place it on the patient's body for cupping. This eliminates the need for cotton balls, reducing waste and facilitating fire extinguishing, thus reducing safety hazards. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0030] The following describes an embodiment of the present invention based on its overall structure.

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] A type of ignition gun for cupping, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the device includes an outer shell 1, a handle 10 connected to one side of the outer shell 1, and a control component 11 connected to one side of the handle 10. The control component 11 is slidably connected to the handle 10, and a spring 13 is connected between the control component 11 and the handle 10. A micro switch 12 is installed inside the handle 10. The control component 11 abuts against the micro switch 12 and the vent 8 respectively. When the operator presses the control component 11, the spring 13 is compressed and the micro switch 12 is triggered. After the control component 11 is pressed, it moves away from the vent 8. Ventilation ports 8 are provided in the middle of one side of the outer shell 1 and on the bottom side of the top plate 4. The ventilation port 8 in the middle of one side of the outer shell 1 is connected to the ventilation port 8 on the bottom side of the top plate 4. The cross-section of the ventilation port 8 is "L" shaped, and outside air can enter the fire pot through the ventilation port 8. A top plate 4 is connected to the top of the outer shell 1. Sealing gaskets 5 are connected to both sides of the top of the top plate 4. The sealing gaskets 5 are made of graphite packing material. The sealing gaskets 5 form a seal between the fire pot and the top plate 4 to prevent outside air from entering the fire pot through the gap between the two.

[0033] An alcohol bottle 2 runs through the bottom of the outer casing 1, and a fixing ring 6 runs through the middle of the top of the top plate 4. A smokeless lamp wick 9 is fixed inside the fixing ring 6. One end of the smokeless lamp wick 9 extends into the lower part of the alcohol bottle 2. When the smokeless lamp wick 9 is not lit, it first absorbs the alcohol in the alcohol bottle 2 through capillary effect, so that the top of the smokeless lamp wick 9 absorbs alcohol. When the micro switch 12 is triggered, the igniter 7 is activated to ignite the alcohol absorbed at the top of the smokeless lamp wick 9, so that the flame burns inside the fire pot. At the same time, the smokeless lamp wick 9 uses the wick effect, that is, when the top of the smokeless lamp wick 9 is lit, the top temperature is high. The smokeless lamp wick 9 generates a guiding effect, causing the alcohol in the alcohol bottle 2 to flow towards the direction of higher temperature and generate combustion. The heat generated by combustion causes the alcohol in the alcohol bottle 2 to continue to flow upward, forming a cycle.

[0034] See Figures 1-4 A battery compartment 3 is installed on one side of the outer casing 1, and an igniter 7 is installed on the top of the top plate 4. Both the battery compartment 3 and the igniter 7 are electrically connected to the micro switch 12. When the micro switch 12 is triggered, power is supplied to the igniter 7 through the battery compartment 3, and the igniter 7 is activated to ignite the alcohol absorbed at the top of the smokeless lamp wick 9.

[0035] Example 2:

[0036] Based on the above embodiment one, the following settings are now implemented to facilitate fuel replacement.

[0037] See Figure 1 and Figure 4The alcohol bottle 2 is detached from the outer casing 1 via threads. When the alcohol in the alcohol bottle 2 is exhausted, the worker can rotate the alcohol bottle 2 to remove the empty alcohol bottle 2. Then, the worker places the new alcohol bottle 2 at the bottom of the outer casing 1 and screws it into the outer casing 1, thus completing the replacement of the alcohol bottle 2. The retaining ring 6 is detached from the top plate 4 via threads. When the smokeless lamp wick 9 is damaged, the worker can rotate the retaining ring 6 to remove the retaining ring 6, thus pulling out the smokeless lamp wick 9 together. Then, the worker prepares a new retaining ring 6 with the smokeless lamp wick 9 attached. The worker then places this retaining ring 6 in the middle of the top of the top plate 4 and screws it into the top plate, thus completing the replacement of the retaining ring 6 and the smokeless lamp wick 9.

[0038] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the staff places the fire cupping jar on top of the sealing gasket 5. The sealing gasket 5 forms a seal between the fire cupping jar and the top plate 4, preventing outside air from entering the fire cupping jar through the gap between the two. Then, the staff presses the control component 11 to compress the spring 13 and trigger the micro switch 12. After the control component 11 is pressed, it moves away from the vent 8, allowing outside air to enter the fire cupping jar through the vent 8.

[0039] When the smokeless lamp wick 9 is not lit, it first absorbs the alcohol in the alcohol bottle 2 through capillary effect, so that the tip of the smokeless lamp wick 9 is covered with alcohol. When the micro switch 12 is triggered, the igniter 7 starts to ignite the alcohol absorbed at the tip of the smokeless lamp wick 9, so that the flame burns in the fire pot. At the same time, the smokeless lamp wick 9 uses the wick effect, that is, when the tip of the smokeless lamp wick 9 is lit, the tip temperature is high. The smokeless lamp wick 9 generates a guiding effect, causing the alcohol in the alcohol bottle 2 to flow towards the direction of higher temperature to produce combustion. The heat generated by combustion causes the alcohol in the alcohol bottle 2 to continue to flow upward to form a cycle.

[0040] After ignition, the staff releases the control component 11. At this time, the spring 13 drives the control component 11 to reset and block the vent 8 to prevent outside air from entering. Then, the flame inside the cupping jar goes out because there is no air supply. After the flame goes out, the staff gently presses the control component 11 again to prevent the micro switch 12 from being triggered. The control component 11 moves again to connect the vent 8 with the outside, allowing outside air to enter the cupping jar through the vent 8. This prevents the negative pressure inside the cupping jar from sucking the sealing gasket 5, which would make the cupping jar difficult to remove. Then, the staff quickly picks up the cupping jar and places it on the patient's body for cupping.

[0041] When the alcohol in the alcohol bottle 2 is exhausted, the worker can rotate the alcohol bottle 2 to remove the empty alcohol bottle 2. Then, the worker can place the new alcohol bottle 2 at the bottom of the outer casing 1 and screw it into the outer casing 1 to complete the replacement of the alcohol bottle 2. When the smokeless lamp wick 9 is damaged, the worker can rotate the retaining ring 6 to remove the retaining ring 6 and pull out the smokeless lamp wick 9 together. Then, the worker can prepare a new retaining ring 6 with the smokeless lamp wick 9 attached. The worker can then place this retaining ring 6 in the middle of the top of the top plate 4 and screw it into the top plate to complete the replacement of the retaining ring 6 and the smokeless lamp wick 9.
