Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of traditional Chinese medicine acupoint positioning, especially to an adjustable same body inch positioning ruler. BACKGROUND

[0002] The theory of finger inch is from the book of Qianjin Yaofang: "The inch rule is based on the ancient rule that eight inches is a foot, and the first section of the middle finger is one inch", which is the literature source of the middle finger inch. Many acupuncture works in later generations mentioned the same body inch, which is based on this. The book also records the thumb inch rule, "there are also long and short ones, and the first section of the thumb is one inch, and the message is intended to be clever and clumsy".

[0003] The one husband method is first recorded in Zhoubou Beiqifang: "the patient's hand is horizontally covered, and the four fingers are connected, which is called one husband, and the middle section of the finger is the acupoint, which is attached to the outside of the tibia, and the twisting is concave". The one husband method is one of the acupuncture acupoint selection methods. It is also called hand husband. The patient's index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger are connected, and the width of the middle section of the middle finger is three inches, which is called one husband. The one husband method is suitable for the straight inch of the lower limbs, lower abdomen and the horizontal inch of the back.

[0004] The same body inch rule has a long history and is still used today. The current positioning method of selecting acupoints according to the patient's own finger size is the "finger inch rule" in the same body inch rule. There are three common finger inches: middle finger inch, thumb inch and horizontal finger inch.

[0005] In clinical practice, the acupoints of patients with limited activities and the acupoints on the back are parts that cannot be touched by the patient's fingers. When using the finger inch rule to select acupoints, the operator often finds the acupoint position according to the approximate width of the patient's fingers. The error of the operator's visual measurement of the finger width is large, and the acupoints selected by different operators often have large positional deviation, and the lack of precision of acupoint selection is not conducive to the continuity of the treatment effect of the same acupoint.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The utility model provides a kind of adjustable body length positioning ruler, including scale 1 and with scale 1 connection equal division device 2, scale 1 is provided with several scales, the interval of each scale is 1mm, one end of the equal division device 2 is fixedly connected with scale 1, sliding groove 11 is set on scale 1, sliding groove 11 extends to the length direction of scale 1, the other end of the equal division device 2 is slidably connected in sliding groove 11, and contact sheet 3 for being contacted with finger is respectively arranged at the two ends of equal division device 2;Wherein one contact sheet 3 points to the "0" scale of scale 1.During use, let patient converge its index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger, and place middle finger middle segment horizontal line between two contact sheets 3.Through the cooperation of two contact sheets 3 and scale 1, the accuracy of size can be improved.Contact sheet 3 is sheet structure.The two ends of contact sheet 3 are extended upwards, and during use, finger is contacted with the two ends of contact sheet 3.

[0020] The equal division device 2 includes a plurality of scissor assemblies 21, adjacent scissor assemblies 21 are hinged, the scissor assembly 21 includes two scissor rods 211 and a first pin shaft 212, the middle part of the scissor rod 211 is provided with a connecting hole, the first pin shaft 212 is installed in the connecting hole, the end part of the scissor rod 211 is provided with a hinged hole, the hinged hole is connected with a second pin shaft 213, adjacent scissor assemblies 21 are hinged through the second pin shaft 213.

[0021] Specifically, the second pin shaft 213 extends to the other side of the scale 1 through the sliding groove 11, and the side, away from the scissor assembly 21, of the second pin shaft 213 is provided with an identification sheet 4 for indicating the scale.

[0022] Specific, the scissors assembly 21 is provided with three, three scissors assembly 21 will four fingers (fingers, middle fingers, ring fingers and little fingers) measured 3 inches are divided, that is, the interval of each scissors assembly 21 two ends is 1 inch, and cooperation first pin shaft 212 in each scissors assembly 21, can further divide 1 inch into 0.5 inch. In order to more intuitively see the specific size value of 0.5 inch, the pointer 7 pointing to the scale can also be connected on the first pin shaft 212. Three said scissors assembly 21 are in turn first scissors assembly 22, second scissors assembly 23 and third scissors assembly 24, the lower left end of the first scissors assembly 22 is rotatably fixed at the starting scale of the scale, more specifically, a third pin shaft is fixed at the "0" scale of the scale, the lower left end of the first scissors assembly 22 is installed on the third pin shaft, and the lower left end of the first scissors assembly 22 can rotate around the third pin shaft, through the above setting, when the scissors assembly is pulled to move, the starting position of the equal division device will not change.

[0023] The lower right end of the third scissors assembly 24 is connected with a fixed screw 5, the fixed screw 5 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 11, and the fixed screw 5 is connected with a fixed nut 6 at one end through the sliding groove 11 and the third scissors assembly 24. After determining the specific size of 3 inches according to the width of the four fingers of the patient, the fixed bolt is tightened to prevent the size from changing.

[0024] Specifically, a plurality of through holes 2111 are arranged at equal intervals on each said scissors rod 211. The through holes 2111 can reduce the weight of the positioning ruler, making the positioning ruler more portable.

[0025] A specific application of the utility model is:

[0026] Before use, loosen the fixed nut 6, so that the three scissors assemblies 21 can be freely opened and closed. According to the "one husband method", the patient holds his fingers, middle fingers, ring fingers and little fingers together, and places the middle finger knuckle at the two contact pieces 3, and adjusts the opening angle of the scissors assembly 21, so that the two contact pieces 3 are tightly attached to the index finger and the little finger, and then the fixed nut 6 is tightened. Through the above mode, the specific size of 3 inches of the patient can be obtained. The patient moves away his hand, and the equal division design of the ruler divides the three inches of the patient into 1 inch, 1.5 inches, 2 inches, 2.5 inches and 3 inches. The operator can select the required acupoint on the patient's body according to these sizes. For example, the lung acupoint is located on the back of the human body, 1.5 inches away from the posterior median line beside the third thoracic spine, and the patient is in a sitting or prone position when taking the acupoint. First, find the most prominent spinous process of the neck, that is, the spinous process of the seventh cervical vertebra, then feel along the spinous process one by one downward until the third thoracic spine, and then use the positioning ruler to find 1.5 inches of the patient's finger and body, that is, the lung acupoint. The operator can obtain the objective data of the patient's finger and body size by using the positioning ruler, and more accurately locate the acupoints.

[0027] Although the specific embodiments of the present application are described above, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the specific embodiments described are only illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application, and equivalent modifications and changes made by those skilled in the art in accordance with the spirit of the present application should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present application.
