Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical and health care, and in particular to a multifunctional acupressure stick. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the fast pace of modern life and increasing life pressure, people's bodies are often in a sub-healthy state, especially those who frequently use computers. Because the neck and shoulders are often in a static state for extended periods, local muscles become stiff and rigid, leading to increasing discomfort and eventually, a host of neck and shoulder diseases. To alleviate these physical ailments, massage therapists in hospitals perform targeted acupressure massage. During massage, therapists typically use specific finger techniques to apply pressure and flick specific points, tendons, and muscles. However, prolonged use of the fingers, especially the thumb, can cause finger joint strain, deformities, and even harm the therapist's body. Therefore, some massage therapists now use acupressure sticks to perform acupressure massage.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN215022172U discloses a multifunctional acupressure stick, including a stick body. One end of the stick body has a large end for applying pressure to large acupoints, and the other end of the stick body away from the large end has a small end for applying pressure to small acupoints. The surface of the stick body is provided with a scale strip. A fixed clamping end is provided on the stick body at one end of the scale strip. A sliding sleeve is fitted on the stick body at the position of the scale strip. The sliding sleeve has a sliding clamping end. Both the fixed clamping end and the sliding clamping end have acupressure ends on the side away from the stick body. Both acupressure ends are hemispherical and are designed to fit together to form a sphere. By using the scale strip on the surface of the stick body to clamp the sliding clamping end and the fixed clamping end between the fingers, the width of the fingers can be measured. Ultimately, the stick can be used to apply pressure to acupoints and measure finger width at the same time, making the operation of applying pressure to acupoints and measuring acupoints more convenient and eliminating the need for multiple tools.

[0004] However, the acupressure stick in the above-mentioned technical solution has a one-piece structure, with a fixed and single acupressure end structure that cannot be replaced. It also has a single function. Furthermore, this one-piece acupressure stick requires sterilization after each use to prevent cross-infection between different patients. In certain usage scenarios, such as physiotherapy departments and massage clinics in hospitals, where there are many patients, acupressure sticks are often used frequently. If a one-piece acupressure stick is used, a longer sterilization time is required, which indirectly reduces work efficiency. Alternatively, a larger number of acupressure sticks may be required, which would increase equipment and maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention provides a multifunctional acupressure stick, which helps to solve the problem that some existing acupressure sticks adopt an integrated structure, resulting in a fixed structure, single function, and inability to meet the high-frequency use needs in some application scenarios.

[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows:

[0007] A multifunctional acupressure stick includes a base, with a first disassembly component and a second disassembly component detachably connected to both sides of the base. The outer end of the first disassembly component has a first end, and the outer end of the second disassembly component has a second end. Both the first end and the second end are ball-head structures. The second disassembly component has an inner cavity that extends to the second end. The base has a mounting seat on one side of the inner cavity. The mounting seat can hold an moxa stick. A mesh cover is detachably connected to the mounting seat. The mesh cover forms a dust-proof structure around the moxa stick. A heat-conducting rod is provided on the mesh cover facing the second end.

[0008] Based on the above technical solution, the contour of the first end is larger than the contour of the second end.

[0009] Based on the above technical solution, the first and second disassembly components are respectively threaded to the base.

[0010] Based on the above technical solution, the second end has a transition cavity inside and a through hole on the outer side of the second end, which allows the transition cavity to communicate with the external space.

[0011] Based on the above technical solution, the second disassembly component has a vent hole on its side wall, which penetrates the side wall of the second disassembly component, so that the inner cavity is connected to the external space.

[0012] Based on the above technical solution, a protective sleeve with a thin film structure is fitted onto the first end and the second end.

[0013] Based on the above technical solution, the mounting base is provided with a first slot at the center of one side of the inner cavity. The first slot is used to install the moxa stick. A second slot with an annular structure is provided around the first slot. The second slot is used to install the mesh cover.

[0014] Based on the above technical solution, the second slot is provided with an elastic buckle, which can form an elastic clamping structure for the mesh cover inserted into the second slot.

[0015] Based on the above technical solution, several ribs are provided on the inner sidewall of the first slot.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages:

[0017] This invention features a detachable base, a first detachable component, and a second detachable component. The outer ends of both components are equipped with tips for applying pressure to acupoints. Compared to existing fixed, integrated acupressure sticks, this invention allows for the replacement of these components according to actual acupressure needs. This enables adjustments to the size, shape, and material of the tips, resulting in greater adaptability and flexibility in acupressure operations. During high-frequency use, the tips can be easily disassembled and replaced, improving operational efficiency. Furthermore, the second detachable component has an internal cavity with a mounting base for moxa sticks and a protective mesh cover, allowing the acupressure stick to also perform moxibustion operations. This enriches the product's functionality and achieves a multi-purpose effect. Therefore, this invention addresses the problem of existing acupressure sticks with a fixed, single-function design that fails to meet the high-frequency usage requirements of certain application scenarios.

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely to represent selected embodiments of this utility model.

[0027] In the description of this utility model, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0028] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0029] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0030] Example 1: Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment discloses a multifunctional acupressure stick, including a base 1 made of wood. The base 1 is a round rod structure for users to grip. The wooden structure also helps to provide better heat insulation and anti-scalding effect. In other embodiments, other materials with low thermal conductivity, such as PEEK, can also be used for manufacturing.

[0031] The base 1 has a first disassembly component 2 and a second disassembly component 3 with rod structures detachably connected to both sides. In this embodiment, the first disassembly component 2 and the second disassembly component 3 are threadedly connected to the base 1, which allows the first disassembly component 2 and the second disassembly component 3 to be flexibly disassembled and assembled relative to the base 1. In actual use, different specifications of disassembly component structures can be replaced according to operational needs.

[0032] The first assembly / disassembly component 2 has a first end a on its axial outer end, and the second assembly / disassembly component 3 has a second end b on its axial outer end. Both the first end a and the second end b are ball-head structures, and the outline of the first end a is larger than the outline of the second end b. When in use, the first end a and the second end b replace the fingers in contact with the patient. This is beneficial for maintaining the health of the massage therapist's fingers and can also reduce physical contact between the doctor and the patient, thus reducing the risk of cross-infection of germs.

[0033] Furthermore, the second disassembly component 3 has an inner cavity 31 that extends to the second end b, and the second end b has a transition cavity b1 inside. The outer end of the second end b has a through hole b2 that allows the transition cavity b1 to communicate with the external space.

[0034] The base 1 is provided with a mounting seat 4 on one side of the inner cavity 31. The mounting seat 4 has a slot for mounting the moxa stick 5. The mounting seat 4 is also detachably connected with a mesh cover 6. In this embodiment, the mesh cover 6 is a cylindrical structure made of stainless steel mesh. The opening of the cylinder is connected to the mounting seat 4 by an inner and outer snap-fit ​​method. The mesh cover 6 forms a dust protection structure around the moxa stick 5. The mesh cover 6 is provided with a heat-conducting rod 7 facing the second end b. The heat-conducting rod 7 is made of stainless steel thin support rod. The inner end of the heat-conducting rod 7 is welded and fixed to the mesh cover 6, and the outer end faces the through hole b2. In actual use, the lit moxa stick 5 generates heat. The mesh cover 6 prevents the moxa stick 5 from falling off the mounting base 4 and sticking to the side wall of the second disassembly part 3, causing that side to overheat. The mesh cover 6 also intercepts the ash generated by the moxa stick 5, facilitating subsequent cleaning and maintenance. The mesh cover 6 also works with the heat-conducting rod 7 to conduct heat, allowing the internal heat to be efficiently and accurately transferred to the transition cavity b1. The hollow structure of the transition cavity b1 has a homogenizing and buffering effect, allowing the heat to be buffered in this area and then evenly pass through the through hole b2. This is beneficial for the precise simultaneous operation of acupressure and moxibustion on specific acupoints, enriching the product's functionality.

[0035] In other embodiments, in order to make the burning conditions of the moxa stick 5 more favorable and reliable, the side wall of the second disassembly component 3 is provided with a vent hole, which penetrates the side wall of the second disassembly component 3, so that the inner cavity 31 is connected to the external space.

[0036] Example 2: Based on Example 1, combined with Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, to further reduce usage costs and improve hygiene, a protective sleeve 8 with a thin film structure is fitted onto the first end a and the second end b. The inner contour of the protective sleeve 8 is adapted to the outer contour of the end. Figure 3Taking the first end a as an example, the anti-slip sleeve is made of rubber film, with a constricted end 81 on its inner side. After installation, the constricted end 81 can fit the main structure of the first disassembly component 2. The constricted end 81 has several evenly distributed tension grooves 82, which are axial strip groove structures, making it easier for the outer side of the constricted end 81 to extend and improving the smoothness of the sleeve. The anti-slip sleeve is used to directly contact the patient's limb. When used frequently, the protective sleeve 8 can be easily replaced, thus eliminating the need for complicated sterilization and disinfection procedures.

[0037] Example 3: Based on Example 1, combined with Figure 4 and 5 In this embodiment, the mounting base 4 is provided with a first slot 41 at the center of one side of the inner cavity 31. The first slot 41 is used to install the moxa stick 5. The first slot 41 is surrounded by a second slot 42 with an annular structure. The second slot 42 is used to install the mesh cover 6.

[0038] Furthermore, the second slot 42 is equipped with a flexible buckle 43, which is made of stamped aluminum sheet. Its inner end has an inner arch structure with a certain degree of elasticity. The flexible buckle 43 can form an elastic clamping structure for the mesh cover 6 inserted into the second slot 42. This makes the insertion of the mesh cover 6 more convenient and relatively reliable.

[0039] Example 4: Based on Example 1, combined with Figure 6 As shown in this embodiment, in order to improve the installation stability of the moxa stick 5, a number of ribs 44 are provided on the inner sidewall of the first slot 41. The ribs 44 are wider in the inner and narrower in the outer axis than the first slot 41, so that the moxa stick 5 is inserted more and more tightly and is not easy to fall off.

[0040] In other embodiments, a micro vibration motor can also be configured to control the pulse current change, and to achieve microcurrent acupressure when the guide rod does not participate in heat conduction. This is existing technology, and its specific structure and working principle will not be described in detail here. Those skilled in the art can select and implement it from existing technologies according to actual operation conditions, which can further enrich the product functions.

[0041] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
