Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cupping, specifically a novel balanced cupping jar. Background Technology
[0002] Cupping (also known as fire cupping) is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy that uses cups as tools to create negative pressure through methods such as burning or suction, causing the cups to adhere to the skin and create local blood stasis. This is believed to achieve effects such as clearing the meridians, promoting blood circulation, reducing swelling and pain, and dispelling wind and cold. For the method of creating negative pressure by burning, a wad of cotton is usually held with tweezers, lit, and placed inside the cup with its lower opening. The tweezers are then removed, leaving the cotton inside the cup. The lower opening of the cup is then quickly pressed against the skin, allowing the cup to adhere to the skin.
[0003] The aforementioned method of generating negative pressure through burning can effectively draw the cups onto the skin surface. However, during use, several drawbacks have been identified: 1. Sometimes the cups are not vertically downwards but tilted, causing discomfort to the patient due to the uneven pressure on the skin. Furthermore, accidental pressure release can easily cause the cups to detach and break. 2. Sometimes the negative pressure is too high, causing discomfort or pain to the patient. Currently, there is no structure on the cups to adjust the negative pressure. 3. When cupping the back, the patient usually lies prone on the bed, with the cups tilted downwards. The burning cotton is quite hot and will fall and contact the skin under gravity, easily causing discomfort to the patient. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a novel balanced cupping jar. This jar can be supported or pulled from all sides, and the negative pressure can be adjusted. It also prevents burning cotton from contacting the skin, effectively solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1
[0027] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, a novel balanced cupping device includes a cupping body 1 with a bottom opening. A malleable support member 2 is uniformly fixed to the side circumference of the cupping body 1. The support member 2 includes a flexible tube 21 (using a relatively rigid tube to increase support strength). The inner end of the tube 21 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of a fixing plate 22. The inner surface of the fixing plate 22 is bonded to the outer surface of the cupping body 1. The outer end of the tube 21 is bonded to one end of an elbow 23. The other end of the elbow 23 is bonded to the upper surface of a flexible fixing piece 24. The bottom surface of the fixing piece 24 has a double-sided adhesive 25 (one side is bonded to the fixing piece 24, and the other side is bonded to the skin). A circular through-hole 11 is embedded in the top of the cupping body 1, and a negative pressure regulating member 3 is fixedly installed at the through-hole 11. An annular magnetic block 4 is bonded to the inner surface of the upper and lower middle positions of the cupping body 1 (i.e., the middle part of the inner wall of the cupping body 1), and a combustion box 5 is attracted and fixed to the annular magnetic block 4.
[0028] The negative pressure regulating component 3 includes a screw sleeve 31 fixed at the through hole 11, a screw bolt 32 screwed into the screw sleeve 31 from top to bottom, and a sealing gasket 33 fitted on the screw between the outer end of the screw bolt 32 and the screw sleeve 31.
[0029] The combustion box 5 includes an iron box 51 with a side opening. A cover 52 is provided at the opening of the box 51. One end of the cover 52 is hinged to the box 51 via a hinge 53. A torsion spring (not shown, prior art) is provided on the hinge 53 for closing the cover 52. An arc-shaped handle 54 is provided on the outside of the other end of the cover 52. Several openings 55 are evenly provided on the box 51 and the cover 52.
[0030] The box body 51 is square or cylindrical (in this embodiment, it is cylindrical).
[0031] During use, after the canister 1 adheres to the skin, the snake tube 21 can be bent at different angles according to the skin's stress. Then, the ends of the snake tube 21 are glued to the skin using double-sided adhesive 25 (for example, when the canister 1 is tilted, the skin above is pulled more severely; the lower snake tube 21 can provide support, the upper snake tube 21 can provide pull, and the snake tubes 21 on both sides can assist in fixation). This not only adjusts the balance of the canister 1 and relieves the patient's discomfort, but also provides auxiliary fixation for the canister 1, preventing it from falling off and breaking if the pressure is accidentally released. If the negative pressure is too high and causes the patient's skin pain and discomfort, the jack bolt 32 at the top can be loosened slightly to adjust the negative pressure, so that the canister 1 can be adhered and fixed while relieving the patient's pain, achieving a balanced state. When igniting, the operator can hold the box 51 with their left hand, open the cover 52 with their thumb and prevent the cover 52 from closing, put the cotton into the box 51 with their right hand, and then ignite the cotton with a lighter. At this time, the left thumb is quickly released and the cover 52 is closed (at this time, the cotton is burning and the opening 55 can provide oxygen). The box 51 is then placed into the canister 1 and attracted and fixed to the annular magnetic block 4. After that, the canister 1 is quickly attached to the skin (the cotton will be extinguished quickly), which can effectively prevent the cotton from sliding down and contacting the skin, causing discomfort. Example 2
[0032] like Figure 6 As shown, an annular rubber sleeve 6 is also attached to the upper and lower middle positions of the outer surface of the tank body 1.
[0033] The lower side of the rubber sleeve 6 is also bonded and fixed to the upper side of the fixing plate 22.
[0034] When in use, the rubber sleeve 6 provides anti-slip protection for the operator's grip, which is beneficial to the safety of use. The lower side of the rubber sleeve 6 is bonded and fixed to the upper side of the fixing plate 22, which is beneficial to the overall structural stability.
