Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of moxibustion technology, and in particular to a knee brace for moxibustion of acupoints on the legs. Background Technology
[0002] Moxibustion, also known as moxibustion therapy, is a treatment method that uses moxa sticks or cones made from mugwort leaves to stimulate acupoints or specific areas of the body with heat. This heat stimulates the flow of Qi (vital energy) to regulate disordered physiological and biochemical functions, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing and treating diseases. The mechanism of action of moxibustion is similar to that of acupuncture, and the two methods complement each other. Moxibustion has many advantages, including simple operation, low cost, and significant effects.
[0003] When performing moxibustion on the knee joint, it is usually necessary to roll up the trouser legs above the knee, exposing the entire leg below the knee. However, in cold winters, such extensive exposure can easily cause the patient's legs to get cold, leading to discomfort. Therefore, how to effectively keep the exposed legs warm while performing moxibustion on the knee joint is an important issue that needs to be addressed in the design of leg acupoint moxibustion knee braces. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention provides a leg acupoint moxibustion knee brace to address the problem of coldness on the exposed legs during moxibustion of the knee joint.

The strap is fixedly connected to one side wall of the first warming cover and the second warming cover. The second hook and loop fastener are fixedly connected to the side wall of the strap. The second hook and loop fastener cooperate with each other.
[0010] In this technical solution, the fixing sleeve is attached to the knee, the first warming sleeve is attached to the calf to keep the exposed calf warm, and the second warming sleeve is attached to the thigh to keep the exposed thigh warm. The second Velcro strap on the strap is attached to the first Velcro strap to fix the first and second warming sleeves. The first and second warming sleeves are made of cotton padding.
[0011] Preferably, an acupoint positioning ring is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixing sleeve, and the side wall of the acupoint positioning ring is provided with a positioning groove and a snap-fit groove.
[0012] In this technical solution, the position of the fixed acupoint positioning ring corresponds to the position of the acupoint at the knee joint.
[0013] Preferably, the moxibustion structure includes a top cover, a first baffle, a moxibustion shell, a bottom plate, ventilation holes, and a second baffle. The top cover is threaded onto the top side wall of the moxibustion shell. A circular through groove is formed on the side wall of the top cover.

[0022] In this technical solution, the push rod drives the first fixed block to rise, the first fixed block pulls the connecting rod to move, the connecting rod drives the second fixed block to move, the second fixed block drives the snap-fit block to move, so that the snap-fit block disengages from the snap-fit groove and retracts into the first sliding groove, and the snap-fit block no longer fixes the moxibustion shell.
[0023] Preferably, the snap-fit block and the snap-fit slot cooperate with each other.
[0024] In this technical solution, the snap-fit block snaps into the snap-fit groove, thus fixing the moxibustion shell within the acupoint positioning ring.
[0025] Based on common knowledge in the field, the above-mentioned preferred conditions can be combined arbitrarily to obtain various preferred embodiments of this utility model.
[0026] The positive and progressive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0027] 1. By attaching the fixing sleeve to the knee and aligning the acupoint positioning ring with the acupoints on the knee joint, the moxibustion shell is fixed inside the acupoint positioning ring. The heat generated by the burning moxa wool inside the moxibustion shell is transmitted to the acupoints on the knee joint through the ventilation holes on the bottom plate for moxibustion. The first warming sleeve is attached to the calf to keep the bare calf warm, and the second warming sleeve is attached to the thigh to keep the bare thigh warm. The second Velcro strap on the strap is attached to the first Velcro strap to fix the first and second warming sleeves in place. This allows for better moxibustion of the knee joint while keeping the bare legs warm and preventing the legs from getting cold.
[0028] 2. By removing the top cover, the top cover no longer presses down on the push rod. The compressed spring unfolds, and the push rod rises. The push rod drives the locking block to move, causing the locking block to disengage from the locking groove and retract into the sliding groove. The locking block no longer fixes the moxibustion shell, allowing the moxibustion shell to be removed. The moxibustion shell can then be placed back into the corresponding acupoint positioning ring. The positioning block engages in the positioning groove, positioning the moxibustion shell. The top cover is then re-threaded onto the moxibustion shell. The top cover presses down on the push rod, which pushes the locking block to pop out and re-engage in the locking groove, fixing the moxibustion shell to the acupoint positioning ring. This facilitates easy disassembly and assembly of the moxibustion shell, and makes it convenient to clean and add moxa wool inside. Attached Figure Description
