Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical equipment technology, specifically relating to a novel combined moxibustion device. Background Technology
[0002] Moxibustion is one of the three major therapies in Traditional Chinese Medicine (along with acupuncture and herbal medicine). It is a treatment method that uses burning moxa to stimulate acupoints on the body to prevent and treat diseases. The principle of moxibustion for treating diseases and maintaining health is twofold: firstly, it uses heat to warm and unblock the meridians, promote qi and blood circulation, and dispel cold and dampness; secondly, it utilizes the medicinal properties of moxa itself, as moxa is one of the few Chinese medicinal herbs that can unblock all twelve meridians. Therefore, after thousands of years of exploration, the ancients finally determined that moxa was the main ingredient for moxibustion. Currently, with the improvement of people's living standards, they are paying more and more attention to health and wellness, so more and more people are practicing moxibustion. When performing moxibustion, a moxibustion box containing burning moxa is usually placed inside a moxibustion pack, and then the pack is wrapped around the area to be treated.
[0003] Existing moxibustion devices are relatively simple and cannot simultaneously treat multiple acupoints. Currently available combination moxibustion devices typically use single moxibustion packs, which cannot meet the need for simultaneous treatment of specific acupoints. To achieve simultaneous treatment, multiple moxibustion packs are usually required, covering areas that shouldn't be treated, causing patient discomfort and waste. Furthermore, while the existing moxibustion boxes are placed inside the moxibustion packs, and the packs themselves provide insulation, the zippers on the packs are in contact with the body, easily causing burns. Adding a heat-insulating pad between the moxibustion pack and the acupoint to prevent burns further reduces the effectiveness of the treatment. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention proposes a novel combined moxibustion device. This device ensures simultaneous moxibustion at different acupoints, improving the effectiveness of moxibustion, enhancing user comfort, reducing waste, and preventing issues such as excessive cold or heat, or even burns, caused by zippers. The independence of the moxibustion pack further expands the application scenarios and usage methods of the moxibustion device.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A novel combined moxibustion device includes a moxibustion pack and a strap. Connectors are provided around the four sides of the moxibustion pack, and the moxibustion packs are connected to each other through the connectors. The moxibustion pack includes a large-volume moxibustion pack and a small-volume moxibustion pack. A zipper pad is provided on the bottom side of one side of the moxibustion pack.
[0007] Preferably, the volume of the large-volume moxibustion pack is greater than that of the small-volume moxibustion pack. By selecting moxibustion packs of different sizes, they can be combined into various specific shapes to meet the needs of more moxibustion locations.
[0008] Preferably, two connectors are provided between adjacent moxibustion packs to ensure stability.
[0009] Preferably, the large-volume moxibustion pack includes a combination moxibustion pack and an integral moxibustion pack. The combination moxibustion pack can hold multiple moxibustion boxes, while the integral moxibustion pack can hold one moxibustion box.
[0010] More preferably, the combined moxibustion pack and the single moxibustion pack have the same volume. When it is inconvenient to use a single moxibustion box, different shaped moxibustion boxes can be set in the combined moxibustion pack to better ensure the moxibustion effect.
[0011] More preferably, the modular moxibustion pack is equipped with fixing strips, which divide the space within the modular moxibustion pack. The fixing strips are respectively located on both sides of the zipper and the zipper teeth that cooperate with the zipper, with a gap between the two fixing strips. The fixing strips are designed to secure the moxibustion box in the modular moxibustion pack, preventing the moxibustion box from moving within the pack, ensuring the therapeutic effect of moxibustion, and reducing user discomfort. The gap between the two fixing strips is to ensure the normal operation of the zipper and zipper teeth.
[0012] More preferably, half the volume of the combined moxibustion pack is the same as the volume of the small-volume moxibustion pack.
[0013] More preferably, the fixing strip is positioned in the middle of the combined moxibustion pack, and the moxibustion box in the combined moxibustion pack can be the same as the moxibustion box in the small-volume moxibustion pack. Two moxibustion boxes can be set in the combined moxibustion pack.
[0014] Preferably, the connector on the moxibustion pack is connected to the strap, and the strap is connected to the connector to fix the moxibustion pack to the user's body, ensuring that the moxibustion pack does not move back and forth, ensuring the effect of moxibustion, and improving the user's comfort.
[0015] Preferably, the moxibustion pack is connected to fasteners around its perimeter, and the fasteners are connected to straps. Alternatively, the moxibustion pack can be secured by setting fasteners on the moxibustion pack and connecting the fasteners to the straps.
[0016] This utility model provides a novel combined moxibustion device that uses moxibustion packs of different shapes and sizes, combined into various configurations to accommodate simultaneous moxibustion of different acupoints, improving the effectiveness of moxibustion, reducing user discomfort, enhancing comfort during the moxibustion process, and avoiding unnecessary waste. Initially, the zipper directly contacts the skin, which can feel particularly cold, especially in cold weather. During the moxibustion process, the zipper can become quite hot, potentially causing burns. This utility model solves these problems by incorporating a zipper gasket, avoiding the issue of poor moxibustion effect caused by a single heat-insulating gasket placed between the zipper and the skin, a common practice in existing technologies. Each moxibustion pack in this utility model is independent, equipped with connectors and fasteners, allowing for individual use of each pack and increasing the versatility of the moxibustion device.
[0017] This utility model provides a novel combined moxibustion device that can meet the needs of multiple scenarios and simultaneous moxibustion of different acupoints, improving the effect of moxibustion, enhancing user comfort, and preventing problems such as excessive cold or heat, or even burns, caused by zippers; the independence of the moxibustion pack further expands the application scenarios and usage methods of the moxibustion device.

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application 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 application. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection claimed in this application.
[0032] As shown in the figure, this utility model provides a novel combined moxibustion device, including a moxibustion pack and a strap 8. Connectors 5 are provided around the perimeter of the moxibustion pack, and the moxibustion packs are connected to each other via the connectors 5. The moxibustion pack includes a large-volume moxibustion pack and a small-volume moxibustion pack 3 (e.g., ...). Figure 5-6 (As shown); a zipper pad 6 is provided on one side of the bottom of the moxibustion pack.
[0033] In another implementation, the zipper pad 6 is not connected to the moxibustion pack only at the position facing the zipper 9 (there is a gap), while the other positions are connected to the moxibustion pack. When the zipper 9 is zipped up, after the zipper 9 reaches the zipper pad 6, it passes through the gap and can continue to move forward until the very front.
[0034] In another implementation, the volume of the large-volume moxibustion pack is greater than that of the small-volume moxibustion pack 3. By selecting moxibustion packs of different shapes and sizes, they can be combined into various shapes to meet the requirements of simultaneous moxibustion on more special acupoints. Two connectors 5 are set between adjacent moxibustion packs to ensure stability.
[0035] Another implementation method is a large-volume moxibustion pack, including a modular moxibustion pack 1 (such as...). Figure 1-2 (as shown) and integrated moxibustion pack 2 (as shown) Figure 3-4As shown, the modular moxibustion pack 1 can hold two moxibustion boxes, while the integral moxibustion pack 2 can hold one moxibustion box. The modular moxibustion pack 1 and the integral moxibustion pack 2 have the same volume. When it is inconvenient to use a single integral moxibustion box, different shaped moxibustion boxes can be selected within the modular moxibustion pack 1 to better ensure the moxibustion effect. The modular moxibustion pack 1 has a fixing strip 4, which divides the space within the modular moxibustion pack 1. The fixing strip 4 can be made of stitching or Velcro. Stitching involves sewing together parts of two sides of the moxibustion pack to separate the space, while Velcro is used for... The two sides of the moxibustion pack have specific positions corresponding to the two sides of the Velcro fastener. When the two sides of the Velcro fastener are stuck together, the space is separated. Alternatively, other methods in the existing technology can be used to achieve the purpose of fixing strip 4. Fixing strip 4 is respectively set on both sides of zipper 9 and the zipper teeth that cooperate with zipper 9. There is a gap between the two fixing strips 4. The fixing strips 4 are set to fix the moxibustion box in the combined moxibustion pack 1, prevent the moxibustion box from moving inside the moxibustion pack, ensure the efficacy of moxibustion, and reduce the user's uncomfortable experience. The gap between the two fixing strips 4 is to ensure the normal operation of zipper 9 and zipper teeth.
[0036] In another embodiment, half the volume of the combined moxibustion pack 1 is the same as the volume of the small moxibustion pack 3; the fixing strip 4 is set in the middle position of the combined moxibustion pack 1, and the moxibustion box set in the combined moxibustion pack 1 can be the same as the moxibustion box set in the small moxibustion pack 3. Two moxibustion boxes can be set in the combined moxibustion pack 1.
[0037] In another implementation, the connector 5 on the moxibustion pack is connected to the strap 8. The strap 8 is connected to the connector 5, securing the moxibustion pack to the user's body, ensuring the stability of the moxibustion pack, guaranteeing the effectiveness of moxibustion, and improving the user's comfort. The connector 5 can be a rope, Velcro, buckle, or snap, or other existing connection methods. The connector 5 can be connected to either the moxibustion pack or the strap 8. When not connected to the moxibustion pack, the connector 5 may be connected to the strap 8, depending on the actual situation.
[0038] In another embodiment, the moxibustion pack is connected to fasteners 7 around its perimeter, such as... Figure 7-9 As shown, the fastener 7 connects to the strap 8. The moxibustion pack can also be secured by setting the fastener 7 on the moxibustion pack and connecting the fastener 7 to the strap 8. In this case, the connector 5 only serves to connect adjacent moxibustion packs. The connection between the strap 8 and the fastener 7 can be achieved through binding, Velcro, buckles, or snaps.
[0039] In practical use, first select appropriate moxibustion packs according to the acupoints to be treated simultaneously, and then combine them (the combinations are listed below). Figure 10-12(As shown), then determine the location of the binding strap 8 based on the location of the acupoint, then place the lit moxibustion stick in the moxibustion box, then place the moxibustion box in the moxibustion pack, then zip it up with the zipper 9, placing the zipper 9 between the zipper pad 6 and the moxibustion pack, and finally place the moxibustion pack on the acupoint and fix it to the person with the binding strap 8 to begin the moxibustion process.
[0040] This utility model provides a novel combined moxibustion device that uses moxibustion packs of different shapes and sizes, combined into various configurations to accommodate simultaneous moxibustion of different acupoints, improving the effectiveness of moxibustion and reducing user discomfort. Moxibustion packs are only placed at the desired locations, eliminating the need for additional packs at unused areas, thus enhancing comfort and avoiding unnecessary waste. Initially, the zipper 9 directly contacts the skin, which can feel particularly cold, especially in cold weather. During moxibustion, the zipper 9 can become excessively hot, potentially causing burns. This utility model addresses these issues by incorporating a zipper pad 6, avoiding the problems associated with using a single heat-insulating pad between the zipper 9 and the skin, which often results in poor moxibustion efficacy. Each moxibustion pack in this device is independent, equipped with a connector 5 and a fixing component 7, allowing for individual use of each pack and increasing the device's versatility.
[0041] This utility model provides a novel combined moxibustion device that can meet the needs of multiple scenarios and simultaneous moxibustion of different acupoints, improving the effect of moxibustion, enhancing user comfort, and preventing problems such as excessive cold or heat, or even burns, caused by zippers; the independence of the moxibustion pack further expands the application scenarios and usage methods of the moxibustion device.
