Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of preventing moxa sticks from falling ash, specifically a moxa stick holder that prevents moxa sticks from falling ash. Background Technology
[0002] In traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture, many treatment methods combine filiform needles with moxa cones. During treatment, the burning moxa cone generates heat that is transferred to the acupoints via the filiform needles, achieving the therapeutic effect. However, as the moxa cone burns, ash falls off, which can easily burn the patient. Currently, the installation and replacement of moxa cones are often done by hand, which easily burns the doctor's hands and also risks ash burning the patient. Therefore, how to prevent patients from being burned by burning moxa ash is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by professionals in this field. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a ash-preventing moxa stick holder to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a moxa stick holder to prevent ash from falling, comprising two hinged clamp arms for easy hand gripping, with a housing for collecting ash fixed to the upper end of each clamp arm. The two housings are semi-cylindrical with openings facing each other. A needle hole is provided at the left end of each housing for acupuncture needles to pass through, allowing for needle insertion while leaving a small gap for oxygen to enter. The device also includes an elastic telescopic moxa stick clamping mechanism located at opposite ends of the inner cavities of the two housings. The housing prevents ash from falling, and the clamping mechanism is telescopic, elastically clamping the moxa stick, suitable for different diameters, and flexible in use.
[0005] Preferably, the clamping mechanism includes a square-section guide cylinder fixed at one end of the inner cavity of the two housings and a telescopic block inserted into the guide cylinder. The inner end of the telescopic block is connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the guide cylinder by a spring. Under the action of the spring, the telescopic block drives the clamping plate to clamp the moxa stick. The two telescopic blocks are provided with clamping plates for clamping the moxa stick at one end of the opposite side. Under the action of the spring, the telescopic block drives the clamping plate to clamp the moxa stick.
[0006] Preferably, the clamp is arc-shaped and parallel to the axis of the needle hole, so that the two axes are parallel, which makes it easy for the needle to be aligned with the needle hole.
[0007] Preferably, the inner side of the clamp is provided with a plurality of arc-shaped ribs along the axial direction, and the ribs are coaxial with the clamp, so that the moxa stick can be easily burned between the ribs.
[0008] Preferably, the right end of the shell is provided with ventilation holes, so that the gap between the pinholes can be smaller, preventing dust from falling in, and the ventilation holes facilitate the burning of the moxa stick.
[0009] Preferably, it also includes an ash removal mechanism located at the right end of the housing, which facilitates ash removal and oxygen intake for combustion.
[0010] Preferably, the ash discharge mechanism includes an ash outlet hole located at the middle of the right end of the housing, and there is an ash storage distance between the ash outlet hole and the circumference of the housing. This way, the ash after combustion will not fall off directly but will be blocked by the ash storage distance. When you want to pour it out, you can shake it directly to the ash outlet hole, which is safer and more convenient.
[0011] Preferably, a locking buckle is provided between the lower ends of the two clamp arms. The buckle is existing technology and together with the clamp arms, it can adopt the structure of a hemostat. After contacting each other, they lock, and then they can be unlocked by being staggered back and forth.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. The clamp holds the moxa stick in place, preventing it from falling off and burning the patient. At the same time, it is safer as there is no need to squeeze it by hand.
[0014] 2. Under the action of the spring, elastic clamping is achieved, which is suitable for moxibustion columns of different diameters. Attached Figure Description
