Detailed Implementation

[0026] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model, the drawings used in the embodiments will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model provides an auxiliary bloodletting device for ear-tip bloodletting therapy, including a U-shaped pressing member 10 that can be clamped on both sides of the ear. The two side walls of the U-shaped pressing member 10 are clamping arms, made of elastic materials such as rubber, silicone, plastic, or fiber. The two clamping arms can retract and clamp the ear when squeezed by external force. A bloodletting channel 11 is provided at the end of the U-shaped pressing member 10 away from its open port for a bloodletting needle to pass through. The bloodletting channel 11 is directly opposite the open port of the U-shaped pressing member 10. A blood squeezing device 20 is arranged parallel to the clamping surface of one of the clamping arms of the U-shaped pressing member 10. One end of the blood squeezing device 20 extends towards the open port of the U-shaped pressing member 10, and the other end extends towards the bloodletting channel 11, squeezing along the clamping surface of the clamping arm towards the bloodletting channel 11. During bloodletting treatment of a patient's ear, the doctor holds a U-shaped compression device 10, separates the two clamping arms of the U-shaped compression device 10, and faces the patient's ear with its open end towards the ear. The patient's ear is placed between the two clamping arms, with the tip of the ear facing the bloodletting channel 11. The doctor pinches the two clamping arms of the U-shaped compression device 10 with their fingers, bringing them together to clamp the patient's ear. The blood squeezing device 20 is then pressed tightly against one side of the ear and held in this clamping state. The doctor inserts a needle for bloodletting into the U-shaped compression device 10 from the outside of the bloodletting channel 11, piercing the ear tip located within the bloodletting channel 11. After piercing the ear tip with the needle, the doctor activates the blood squeezing device 20 to perform a squeezing motion on the ear. The blood squeezing device 20 is used to squeeze the blood in the ear towards the bloodletting channel 11 to assist in bloodletting and allow the blood in the ear to flow towards the ear tip and drain out on its own.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6Specifically, the blood squeezing device 20 includes squeezing wheels 201, squeezing belt 202, and a drive motor 203. A cavity is provided inside one of the clamping arms of the U-shaped pressing member 10, and the cavity communicates with the clamping surface of the clamping arm. At least two squeezing wheels 201 are rotatably disposed within the cavities of the clamping arms. One squeezing wheel 201 is near the open port of the U-shaped pressing member 10, and the other squeezing wheel 201 is near the bloodletting channel 11. The wheel surfaces of the two squeezing wheels 201 are parallel to the clamping surface of the clamping arm, and the axial directions of the two squeezing wheels 201 are the same, with their rotation directions both facing the bloodletting channel 11. The squeezing belt 202 is annularly sleeved on the two squeezing wheels 201. Several protruding squeezing posts 204 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the outer surface of the squeezing belt 202. The squeezing posts 204 protrude from the clamping surface of the clamping arm and are directly opposite the clamping surface of the other clamping arm. The squeezing posts 204 are elongated structures and are fixedly arranged laterally on the outer surface of the squeezing belt 202. The drive motor 203 is shaft-connected to one of the squeezing wheels 201. The drive motor 203 drives the squeezing wheel 201 to rotate. The squeezing wheel 201 drives the squeezing belt 202 to move in the direction of the bloodletting channel 11. The squeezing posts 204 arranged on the outer surface of the squeezing belt 202 are used to squeeze the surface of the ear and move along the surface of the ear towards the ear tip to squeeze the blood in the ear towards the ear tip, so as to assist in the bloodletting of the ear. During bloodletting treatment of a patient's ear, the doctor holds a U-shaped pressing device 10 and clamps it onto the patient's ear. This ensures that the squeezing band 202 of the blood squeezing device 20 is tightly pressed against one side of the ear and remains clamped. After piercing the ear tip with a needle, the drive motor 203 is activated to drive the squeezing wheel 201 to rotate. Driven by the squeezing wheel 201, the squeezing band 202 moves along the surface of the clamped ear towards the bloodletting channel 11, i.e., towards the ear tip. The spaced-apart squeezing columns 204 sequentially squeeze the ear surface and, driven by the squeezing band 202, move along the ear skin towards the ear tip in a wave-like circular squeezing motion, forcing the blood inside the ear towards the ear tip and draining it. The outer surface of the squeezing column 204 that contacts the ear is rounded and smooth, which reduces damage to the ear skin during friction and movement.

[0029] The drive motor 203 is a miniature DC geared motor. A battery 16 for powering the drive motor 203 is provided inside the U-shaped pressing member 10. A charging port 17 for charging the battery 16 and a power switch 18 for controlling the operation of the drive motor 203 are provided on the outer wall of the U-shaped pressing member 10.

[0030] To prevent slippage between the extrusion wheel 201 and the extrusion belt 202, the extrusion wheel 201 is a synchronous pulley, and the extrusion belt 202 is a toothed belt that matches the synchronous pulley.

[0031] Please refer toFigure 7 In a preferred embodiment, the compression column 204 is a cylinder that is rotatably mounted on the outer surface of the compression belt 202. The compression column 204 and the compression wheel 201 are axially aligned. After the U-shaped pressing member 10 is clamped on the patient's ear, the compression column 204 can roll along the ear surface under the traction of the compression belt 202. The rolling movement of the compression column 204 can reduce the operating resistance of the compression belt 202 and reduce the damage to the ear skin caused by the compression column 204.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 Furthermore, to prevent the blood squeezing device 20 from damaging the ear skin, an elastic protective film 12 is fixedly laid on the clamping surface of the clamping arm of the blood squeezing device 20 held by the U-shaped pressing member 10. The protective film 12 covers the squeezing band 202 and is made of thin elastic fiber cloth or rubber. The squeezing band 202 moves along the lower surface of the protective film 12 towards the bloodletting channel 11 so that the squeezing column 204 on the squeezing band 202 applies pressure to the ear through the protective film 12 and moves along the lower surface of the protective film 12 towards the bloodletting channel 11 to assist in ear bloodletting. When the protective film 12 is squeezed by the squeezing column 204, it will deform and bulge towards the ear skin, which will not affect the squeezing force of the squeezing column 204. The protective film 12 isolates the squeezing column 204 from the ear skin, avoiding direct contact between the squeezing column 204 and the ear, thus protecting the ear and preventing the squeezing column 204 from causing compressive damage to the ear skin.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 Furthermore, a protective pad 13 is laid on the clamping surface of the other clamping arm of the U-shaped pressing member 10 that clamps the ear. The protective pad 13 is made of silicone or flexible fiber cloth and serves as a protective layer.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 Furthermore, the back of the two clamping arms of the U-shaped pressing member 10 are respectively provided with anti-slip protrusions 14 to facilitate pressing and applying force, so as to clamp the ear.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 2 or Figure 4 Furthermore, an absorbent cotton 15 is attached to the outer side of the U-shaped pressing member 10 at the edge of the bloodletting channel 11. The absorbent cotton 15 can absorb the blood released from the ear tip, preventing blood overflow. The absorbent cotton 15 is attached with medical tape and is replaced after each ear bloodletting.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 8In another preferred embodiment, the U-shaped pressing member 10 can also be formed by two clamping arms hinged together, with the same usage and function.

[0037] In practical use, the doctor holds the U-shaped pressing component 10, manually pinching its two clamping arms to clamp it onto the patient's ear. The blood squeezing device 20, through the protective membrane 12, is pressed tightly against one side of the ear, with the ear tip positioned at the bloodletting channel 11. Maintaining this clamped state, the doctor can then puncture the ear tip with a needle through the bloodletting channel 11 and activate the drive motor 203 to rotate the squeezing wheel 201. This causes the squeezing band 202, driven by the squeezing wheel 201, to move along the lower surface of the protective membrane 12 towards the bloodletting channel 11, i.e., towards the ear tip. The squeezing column 204 forces the blood from inside the ear towards the ear tip for bloodletting. During the bloodletting process, the patient can also pinch the U-shaped pressing component 10 to maintain the clamped position on the ear, assisting in the bloodletting. This eliminates the need for the doctor to repeatedly squeeze the patient's auricle, making ear tip bloodletting more convenient, improving the efficiency of ear tip bloodletting treatment, and saving the doctor's time and energy.

[0038] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can understand that implementing all or part of the above-described embodiments and making equivalent changes in accordance with the claims of the present utility model are still within the scope of the utility model.
