Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical equipment technology, specifically to an ignition rod suitable for cupping therapy. Background Technology
[0002] Cupping therapy utilizes the combustion process to consume some of the oxygen in the cup and the heat of the flame to expand the gas inside the cup, expelling some of the air and creating a pressure inside the cup that is lower than the outside atmospheric pressure (collectively known as negative pressure). This allows the cup to adhere to the skin at the treatment site. The ignition stick is an essential tool in cupping therapy.
[0003] Existing ignition sticks typically have an ignition cotton fixed to the end of the stick. After being soaked in alcohol, excess alcohol is shaken out by tapping the edge of the alcohol bottle. Because the alcohol is not completely shaken out, when the ignition cotton is lit, the dripping alcohol often causes burns to the patient's skin or ignites other flammable materials, causing a fire. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings in the prior art, this utility model provides an ignition rod that is highly safe to use and suitable for cupping therapy.

[0027] Example 1:
[0028] like Figure 1 , 4 In the illustrated embodiment, the rod 108 serves to lift the alcohol swab during use. Specifically, a base 105 at one end of the rod 108 is used to hold the mesh cover, and the ignition cotton 103 is placed inside the mesh cover. A handle 109 at the other end of the rod 108 facilitates gripping by the user. The rod 108 and base 105 are preferably made of metal, and the base 105 can be connected to the rod 108 by welding or threaded connection. To facilitate the opening of the through hole in the rod 108, the rod 108 can be tubular in structure. The alcohol swab can be made of degreased cotton or memory foam. To facilitate gripping by medical personnel, the handle 109 is provided with an anti-slip coating, which can be made of any one of silicone, rubber, or EVA sponge.
[0029] The structure of the mesh cover includes a mesh cover body 101, and a frame 102 is provided at the edge of the mesh cover body 101. The frame 102 is movably connected to the base 105 by means of threads or snap-fit.
[0030] A pressing rod 107 is slidably connected to the through hole of the rod body 108. A pressing plate 104 is provided at one end of the pressing rod 107 located in the mesh cover, and a pressing handle 111 is provided at the other end. After the assembly is completed, the pressing plate 104 is located inside the mesh cover. A first spring 110 is sleeved on the pressing rod 107, and the two ends of the first spring 110 abut against the end of the rod body 108 and the pressing handle 111, respectively.
[0031] During assembly, the squeeze rod 107 is installed at the rod body 108, and the ignition cotton 103 is placed inside the mesh cover. The mesh cover and base 105 are then connected. After soaking in alcohol, the pressure handle 111 is pressed down, causing the squeeze rod 107 to move the squeeze plate 104, thus squeezing the alcohol cotton inside the mesh cover. Excess alcohol absorbed by the ignition cotton 103 is squeezed out, preventing the alcohol from sticking to the canister and causing burns to the patient's skin, or preventing alcohol from splashing and causing a fire hazard. After releasing the pressure handle 111, the squeeze plate 104 returns to its original position under the elastic force of the first spring 110.
[0032] Example 2:
[0033] Based on Example 1, such as Figure 1 , 4 In the illustrated embodiment, to control the compression force of the extrusion plate 104 when the water absorption rate of the ignition cotton 103 varies, the pressure handle 111 and the extrusion rod 107 are threaded together. During use, the maximum forming force of the extrusion plate 104 can be adjusted by adjusting the relative position between the pressure handle 111 and the extrusion rod 107. To prevent circumferential relative movement between the extrusion rod 107 and the rod body 108 when the pressure handle 111 is rotated, a matching groove and a locking block can be provided between the extrusion rod 107 and the rod body 108.
[0034] Example 3:
[0035] Based on Example 1 or 2, such as Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, to ensure the smooth return of the compressed ignition cotton 103 and to guarantee an even flame after combustion, the compression plate 104 and the bottom of the mesh cover are each provided with a plurality of needles 112 facing the ignition cotton 103. Each needle 112 has a first barb 113. During installation, the needles 112 on the compression plate 104 and the mesh cover pierce into the ignition cotton 103, and the first barb 113 at each needle 112 catches the fibers of the ignition cotton body. When the ignition cotton 103 is compressed and the compression plate 104 returns to its original position, the stretching of the needles 112 on the compression plate 104 and the bottom of the mesh cover allows the ignition cotton 103 to smoothly return to its original position.
[0036] like Figure 3In the illustrated embodiment, another structure is provided to ensure the smooth return of the compressed ignition cotton 103, thereby guaranteeing an even flame after combustion. Specifically, a second spring 114 is provided on the side of the compression plate 104 facing the ignition cotton 103, with the other end of the second spring 114 abutting against the bottom of the mesh cover. The ignition cotton 103 is wound around the second spring 114. In use, the ignition cotton 103 is rolled into strands and wound around the second spring 114. When the compression plate 104 compresses the ignition cotton 103, the second spring 114 is uniformly compressed, causing the alcohol inside the ignition cotton 103 to be squeezed out. When the compression plate 104 returns to its original position, the rebound of the second spring 114 allows the ignition cotton 103 to return smoothly.
[0037] In order to make the ignition cotton 103 have multiple points of force at the second spring 114, a number of second barbs 115 can be provided on the body of the second spring 114. Each second barb 115 can catch the fibers at the ignition cotton 103, thereby making the combination of the ignition cotton 103 and the second spring 114 more secure.
[0038] Example 4:
[0039] Based on any of the embodiments 1-3, such as Figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, to facilitate extinguishing the burning ignition cotton 103, a sealing plate 106 is also fitted onto the rod body 108. During use, the ignition cotton 103 can be inserted into the fire extinguisher tube, and the sealing plate 106 contacts the upper edge of the fire extinguisher tube, thus isolating the oxygen inside and extinguishing the fire. The sealing plate 106 can be made of silicone or rubber, and it is fitted onto the outer wall of the rod body 108 and slidably connected to it.
[0040] Example 5:
[0041] Based on any of the embodiments 1-4, such as Figure 4 In the embodiment shown, in order to make the connection between the extrusion rod 107 and the rod body 108 more compact, countersunk holes are provided at both ends of the rod body 108, and each countersunk hole and through hole are concentrically arranged, and a bushing 116 is provided at each countersunk hole.
[0042] The above-described embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
