Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Moxibustion is a treatment method that uses the heat generated by burning moxa sticks or moxa cones to stimulate acupoints or specific areas of the body. By stimulating the activity of Qi (vital energy) in the meridians, it adjusts the disordered physiological and biochemical functions of the body, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing and treating diseases. It has the effects of harmonizing Yin and Yang, warming and unblocking the meridians, dispelling cold, regulating Qi and blood, warming Yang and tonifying deficiency, preventing diseases and maintaining health, strengthening the body, promoting blood circulation, and improving metabolism. There are many important acupoints distributed in the area from behind the ear to the back of the head, which belong to the Du meridian, the Bladder meridian of Foot Taiyang, the Triple Energizer meridian of Hand Shaoyang, and the Gallbladder meridian of Foot Shaoyang. It can treat many diseases such as headaches, tinnitus, insomnia, and cervical spondylosis.

[0003] There are various types of existing moxibustion devices, with the most commonly used being moxibustion boxes. When performing moxibustion on the area behind the ear to the occipital region, the recipient is generally required to lie prone, and then the moxibustion box is placed on this area. However, due to the poor fit between the bottom of existing moxibustion boxes and this area, they are prone to tipping over. Furthermore, this area contains many important acupoints, each with different meridians, effects, and indications. Treatment requires careful selection of acupoints, necessitating adjustment of the moxa stick's position to target the area. However, the position of the moxa stick on existing moxibustion boxes is relatively fixed, and the position can only be adjusted by moving the entire box, limiting the operational range of the moxibustion box on specific acupoints in this area. Therefore, a new type of moxibustion device suitable for the area behind the ear to the occipital region is urgently needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the background technology and provide a new type of moxibustion device that is not limited to use in the prone position. The position of the moxa stick can be adjusted to correspond to the target area to be moxibusted, so as to perform moxibustion on the target area.

[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: a moxibustion device, comprising a box body, an adjustment component and a fixing strap, wherein the middle part of the box body is a hollow structure that runs through the front and back, and at least one of the fixing straps is detachably connected to the left and right sides of the box body through a connecting structure;

[0006] The adjustment assembly includes a sliding plate, sliders, and a fixing member. A through hole for the moxa stick to pass through is provided in the center of the sliding plate. The fixing member is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the sliding plate and the edge of the through hole to hold and fix the moxa stick passing through the through hole. Two sliders are respectively fixed on the opposite end face of the sliding plate. Two sliding grooves are provided on the inner wall of the rear side of the box. The two sliders are respectively matched and fitted into the two sliding grooves, so that the sliding plate can slide left and right along the sliding grooves.

[0007] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly also includes a filter barrel and a mounting cylinder. The mounting cylinder is coaxially and fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the sliding plate with the through hole. The fixing member is located inside the mounting cylinder. The top of the filter barrel is detachably sleeved on the outside of the mounting cylinder, or the top of the filter barrel is detachably screwed on the outside of the mounting cylinder by a thread.

[0008] Furthermore, the adjustment components are provided in one or two ways. When there is one adjustment component, the width of the sliding plate is less than half the width of the cavity structure, and the adjustment component can slide left and right along the slide groove. When there are two adjustment components, the width of the sliding plate is less than half the width of the cavity structure, that is, the two adjustment components are spaced apart by a distance, so that the two adjustment components can slide towards each other or relative to each other along the slide groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the fixing element is a fixing spring, at least two fixing springs are arranged in a circumferential array, and the top end of the fixing spring is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the sliding plate and the edge of the through hole, the bottom end extends in a direction away from the sliding plate, and the middle part of the fixing spring is concave in the direction of the axis of the through hole.

[0010] Furthermore, the connection structure includes connecting buckles fixed on the left and right sides of the box body and multiple buckle holes equally spaced along the length of the fixing strap. The two ends of the fixing strap are fastened to the connecting buckles through the buckle holes to achieve a detachable connection with the box body.

[0011] Furthermore, the front end face of the box is an arc-shaped structure, and a soft pad is fixed at the edge of the front end face of the box.

[0012] Furthermore, the moxibustion device also includes a plug-in assembly, which includes a plug-in plate, a handle, and a partition. The handle is fixedly installed at one end of the plug-in plate, the middle of the plug-in plate has a through groove structure, and the partition is installed on the plug-in plate and covers the through groove structure. An annular plug-in groove is opened on the inner wall of the front side of the box, and one side of the plug-in groove extends out of the side wall of the box. The plug-in plate is detachably plugged into the plug-in groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the partition is a filter screen and / or a spacer cloth layer. When the partition is a filter screen, the filter screen is fixed to the bottom surface of the connector plate. When the partition is a spacer cloth layer, a spacer cloth layer hook and loop fastener is fixed to the top edge of the spacer cloth layer, and a fixing hook and loop fastener is fixed to the bottom edge of the connector plate. By matching and bonding the spacer cloth layer hook and loop fastener with the fixing hook and loop fastener, the spacer cloth layer can be detachably and fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the connector plate.

[0014] The moxibustion device of this invention can be fixed to the area from behind the ear to the back of the head of the recipient by a fixing strap, making it less prone to tipping over and suitable for moxibustion operations in a prone or sitting position; at the same time, the moxa stick can be fixed to the sliding plate by a fixing component. After the box is fixed, the moxibustion position of the moxa stick can be adjusted by moving the sliding plate without moving the entire box, making it convenient to perform moxibustion operations on specific acupoints in the area from behind the ear to the back of the head; the partition provided can serve to insulate heat and collect moxa ash.

[0023] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model or the prior art, the drawings used in the description of the embodiments or the prior art will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort. The invention will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings:

[0024] Example 1

[0025] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1 , 7 A moxibustion device includes a box body 1, two adjustment components 2 and two fixing straps 3.

[0026] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 2 , 3 The front side of the box 1 has an arc-shaped structure to better fit the area from behind the ear to the back of the head. The middle of the box 1 has a hollow structure 11 that runs through the front and back. A soft pad 15 is fixed to the edge of the arc-shaped structure on the front side of the box 1. The soft pad 15 does not cover the hollow structure 11. Specifically, the soft pad 15 can be fixed to the edge of the front side of the box 1 by adhesive. When using the moxibustion device, the soft pad 15 is in direct contact with the area from behind the ear to the back of the head of the recipient, which improves comfort and reduces the pressure of the box 1 on the skin.

[0027] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 4 , 5 The adjusting assembly 2 includes a sliding plate 21, sliders 22, a fixing member 24, a filter barrel 25, and a mounting cylinder 26. A through hole 23 for the moxa stick to pass through is provided in the center of the sliding plate 21. Two sliders 22 are respectively fixed to opposite end faces of the sliding plate 21. (Refer to the attached instruction manual.) Figure 2 Two sliding grooves 12 are provided on the inner wall of the rear side of the box body 1, and two sliders 22 are respectively matched and sleeved in the two sliding grooves 12, so that the sliding plate 21 can slide left and right along the sliding grooves 12.

[0028] In order to ensure that the sliding plate 21 is fixed in the target position when it is not subjected to external force after sliding left and right along the slide groove 12 to the target position, and will not move on its own, rubber pads are laid on at least part of the side of the slide groove 12 and / or the slider 22 to increase the friction between the slide groove 12 and the slider 22.

[0029] The width of the sliding plate 21 is less than half the width of the cavity structure 11, that is, the two adjustment components 2 are spaced apart by a distance, so that the two adjustment components 2 can move towards each other or relative to each other to adjust the position of the moxa stick. The area not covered by the two adjustment components 2 is an open area, which can serve as a ventilation channel to ensure the normal combustion of the moxa stick. It should be noted that no corresponding diagram is provided for the case where there is only one adjustment component 2, but it can be inferred from the existing diagrams, so it will not be described in detail.

[0030] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 5 The fixing element 24 is a fixing spring. The three fixing springs are arranged in a circumferential array. The top of the fixing spring is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the sliding plate 21 and the edge of the through hole 23. The bottom end extends away from the sliding plate 21. The middle part of the fixing spring is concave in the direction of the axis of the through hole 23. After the moxa stick passes through the through hole 23, it squeezes the three fixing springs to make the three fixing springs move away from each other. Under the action of the rebound force of the three fixing springs, the moxa stick is clamped and fixed. The distance between the burning end of the moxa stick and the skin can be adjusted by inserting or pulling out the moxa stick along the through hole 23.

[0031] The inventors discovered that burning moxa sticks produces ash. If this ash is not collected and falls directly onto the skin or hair, it can cause burns. While a filter inside the box 1 can prevent ash from falling onto the skin, the open area at the rear of the box 1 (not covered by the two adjustment components 2) allows ash to leak out and scatter during moxibustion in a seated position, making it difficult to clean. Furthermore, if the ash contains sparks, it poses a fire risk. Therefore, to address these problems:

[0032] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 5 The filter is provided with a filter barrel 25 and a mounting cylinder 26. The mounting cylinder 26 and the through hole 23 are coaxially fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the sliding plate 21. Three fixing springs are located inside the mounting cylinder 26. The top of the filter barrel 25 is detachably sleeved on the outside of the mounting cylinder 26 (the filter barrel 25 and the mounting cylinder 26 are tightly fixed by mutual friction). Alternatively, the top of the filter barrel 25 is detachably screwed on the outside of the mounting cylinder 26 by a thread (an internal thread is provided on the inside of the top of the filter barrel 25, and an external thread is provided on the outside of the mounting cylinder 26 that can be screwed with the internal thread).

[0033] After the moxa stick passes through the through hole 23 and is held and fixed by three fixing springs, the lit end of the moxa stick is in the filter bucket 25. The moxa ash produced during the moxibustion process is caught by the filter bucket 25 to prevent it from falling onto the skin. At the same time, after the moxibustion is finished, the filter bucket 25 can be removed to pour out the moxa ash. When the sliding plate 21 is moved to adjust the position of the moxa stick, the filter bucket 25 moves synchronously with the sliding plate 21.

[0034] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 2 ,3 Connecting buckles 13 are fixedly installed on the upper and lower positions of the left and right sides of the box body 1. Each connecting buckle 13 includes a connecting rod (which can be a screw rod, threaded onto the box body 1) and a fixing cap (with an outer diameter larger than the threaded rod). The part of the connecting rod outside the box body 1 has a certain length, for example, 5mm. The fixing cap is fixed to the outer end of the connecting rod. Refer to the attached instruction manual. Figure 1 , 7 Multiple buckle holes 31 are provided at equal intervals along the length of the fixing belt 3, and the fixing belt 3 can be an elastic belt;

[0035] The buckle holes 31 at both ends of the two fixing straps 3 pass through the connecting buckle 13 on one side of the box body 1, thus realizing the detachable and fixed connection between the fixing straps 3 and the box body 1. The tightness of the fixing straps 3 can be adjusted by fastening the connecting buckle 13 with the buckle holes 31 at different positions. The two fixing straps 3 can ensure the stability of the box body 1 after it is fixed. For example, one fixing strap 3 can be fixed to the forehead of the person receiving moxibustion, and the other fixing strap 3 can be fixed to the jaw of the person receiving moxibustion.

[0036] The method of using the moxibustion device in this embodiment 1 is as follows: Before performing moxibustion, install the filter barrel 25 on the mounting cylinder 26, insert the lit end of the moxa stick along the through hole 23, so that the moxa stick is clamped and fixed by the three fixing springs, and the lit end of the moxa stick enters the filter barrel 25 (as shown in the attached instruction manual). Figure 7 Place the box 1 on the corresponding position in the area from behind the ear to the back of the head of the recipient, with the soft pad 15 in contact with the skin, and fix the box 1 in position with two fixing straps 3;

[0037] During moxibustion, the distance between the lit end of the moxa stick and the skin can be adjusted by inserting or pulling out the moxa stick along the through hole 23. At the same time, the sliding plate 21 can be slid left and right to adjust the moxibustion position of the moxa stick until the moxibustion operation is over.

[0038] After performing moxibustion, loosen one side of the two fixing straps 3, remove the box 1, remove the filter bucket 25 from the mounting cylinder 26, and pour the moxa ash from the filter bucket 25 into the trash can.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] Based on Example 1, and referring to the appendix of the specification Figure 1 , 7 A moxibustion device includes a box body 1, two adjustment components 2, two fixing straps 3 and a plug-in component 4.

[0041] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 6 The plug-in assembly 4 includes a plug-in plate 41, a handle 42, and a partition 43. The handle 42 is fixedly installed at one end of the plug-in plate 41. The middle part of the plug-in plate 41 has a through-slot structure. The partition 43 is installed on the plug-in plate 41 and covers the through-slot structure. Refer to the attached specification. Figure 2 ,3 An annular insertion groove 14 is provided on the inner wall of the front side of the box body 1, and one side of the insertion groove 14 extends out of the side wall of the box body 1. The insertion plate 41 is inserted from the insertion groove 14 on the side wall of the box body 1 into the insertion groove 14 inside the box body 1.

[0042] The partition 43 is a filter screen and / or a spacer cloth layer. When the partition 43 is a filter screen, the filter screen is fixed to the bottom surface of the plug-in plate 41 (when the plug-in plate 41 is made of wood, nails, thumbtacks or staples can be used to nail the filter screen to the bottom surface of the plug-in plate 41; when the plug-in plate 41 is made of metal, the filter screen can be fixed to the bottom surface of the plug-in plate 41 by welding). When the partition 43 is a spacer cloth layer, a spacer cloth layer hook and loop fastener is fixed to the top edge of the spacer cloth layer, and a fixing hook and loop fastener is fixed to the bottom edge of the plug-in plate 41. By matching and bonding the spacer cloth layer hook and loop fastener with the fixing hook and loop fastener, the spacer cloth layer can be detachably fixed to the bottom surface of the plug-in plate 41.

[0043] The spacer layer is made of gauze or mulberry paper. The spacer layer serves two purposes: firstly, it provides heat insulation, lowers the temperature of the skin at the moxibustion site, improves comfort, and prevents burns; secondly, it catches the moxa ash that leaks from the filter bucket 25. The filter screen also serves to catch the moxa ash that leaks from the filter bucket 25.

[0044] The method of using the moxibustion device in this embodiment 2 is as follows: Before performing moxibustion, install the filter barrel 25 on the mounting cylinder 26, insert the lit end of the moxa stick along the through hole 23, so that the moxa stick is clamped and fixed by the three fixing springs, and the lit end of the moxa stick enters the filter barrel 25 (as shown in the attached instruction manual). Figure 7 Insert the plug-in component 4 into the box 1 along the plug-in slot 14, place the box 1 in the corresponding position from behind the ear to the back of the head of the recipient, with the soft pad 15 in contact with the skin, and fix the box 1 in position with the two fixing straps 3.

[0045] During moxibustion, the distance between the lit end of the moxa stick and the skin can be adjusted by inserting or pulling out the moxa stick along the through hole 23. At the same time, if the recipient feels hot, the liner layer can be fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the plug plate 41 for heat insulation by matching and bonding the Velcro of the liner layer with the fixing Velcro. The sliding plate 21 can be slid left and right to adjust the moxibustion position of the moxa stick until the moxibustion operation is over.

[0046] After performing moxibustion, loosen one side of the two fixing straps 3, remove the box 1, remove the filter bucket 25 from the mounting cylinder 26, and pour the moxa ash from the filter bucket 25 into the trash can.

[0047] Obviously, modifications and / or additions can be made to the above-mentioned moxibustion device and corresponding methods without departing from the scope and range of this utility model.

[0048] It is equally clear that, although this invention has described the moxibustion device in detail, those skilled in the art will certainly be able to obtain many other equivalent forms of moxibustion devices and corresponding methods that have the features described in the claims and are therefore within the scope of protection defined herein.
