Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine health care technology, specifically a moxibustion jar. Background Technology

[0002] Moxibustion therapy, or simply moxibustion, is a treatment method that uses moxa wool or other medicinal substances to burn or warm acupoints on the body surface. Through the heat of the moxa fire and the effects of the medicinal substances, and via the conduction of the meridians, it aims to warm and invigorate the blood and qi, strengthen the body's resistance, and expel pathogenic factors, thereby preventing and treating diseases. When using existing moxibustion jars, the opening is held downwards during the treatment. However, during the hand movement, most of the therapeutic heat generated by the moxibustion dissipates quickly through the ventilation holes at the top, thus reducing the therapeutic effect of moxibustion. Furthermore, since the moxa stick is lit, the heat from the burning moxa stick can easily cause discomfort to the user when it is close to the body during the treatment.

[0003] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a moxibustion jar. After the moxa cone burns inside the jar body, generating a large amount of heat, the smoke produced during combustion is discharged through a vent pipe and a first vent. Because the baffle plate is angled downwards, it obstructs the airflow, preventing the rising hot airflow generated inside the jar body. This retains most of the heat within the jar body. Simultaneously, the heat generated when the moxa cone burns at the bottom is dispersed by the curved surface of the arc plate, preventing direct heat diffusion to the user's body and avoiding discomfort. This allows for prolonged moxibustion therapy, enhancing the therapeutic effect.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A moxibustion jar includes a main body, with four sets of vent pipes fixedly installed through the top of the inner wall of the main body. Baffles are uniformly fixedly installed inside the main body, with the baffles inclined downwards. An arc-shaped plate is installed inside the main body, and a connecting rod is fixedly connected between the inner wall of the main body and the arc-shaped plate. First circular holes are uniformly formed inside the arc-shaped plate, and a moxa ash collection cylinder is threadedly installed at the bottom of each first circular hole. A first vent hole is formed at the top of the main body, and the vent pipes are connected to the first vent hole.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the moxibustion jar body is fitted with a dustproof cover via a threaded rotation, and the dustproof cover is convex upwards, with heat transfer holes evenly distributed inside the dustproof cover.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the moxibustion jar body is provided with a heat insulation layer, and the vent pipe is located inside the heat insulation layer, and the bottom of the moxibustion jar body is provided with a second vent hole evenly.

[0009] Preferably, a moxa cone mounting mechanism is rotatably mounted on the top of the moxibustion jar body via a thread, a knob is fixedly mounted on the top of the moxa cone mounting mechanism, and a moxa cone fixing needle is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the moxa cone mounting mechanism.

[0010] Preferably, the front and rear ends of the top of the moxibustion jar body are provided with sliding grooves, and the two sides of the top of the moxibustion jar body are provided with second round holes, and the sliding grooves and the second round holes are connected in a continuous manner. The front and rear ends of the knob are fixedly installed with sliders, and the sliders are movably installed inside the sliding grooves.

[0011] Preferably, an anti-scalding mechanism is movably installed on the outer side of the moxibustion jar body, a binding strap is fixedly installed on one side of the anti-scalding mechanism, a female Velcro is fixedly installed at the front end of the other side of the binding strap, and a female Velcro is fixedly installed at the rear end of one side of the binding strap.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a moxibustion jar with the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. This utility model generates a large amount of heat by burning moxa cones inside the moxibustion jar body. The smoke generated during the combustion process is discharged through the vent pipe and the first vent hole. Since the baffle is set to be inclined downward, it forms an airflow blockage, which blocks the rising hot airflow generated inside the moxibustion jar body. As a result, most of the heat is retained inside the moxibustion jar body, allowing users to perform long-term moxibustion therapy and improving the therapeutic effect of moxibustion.

[0014] 2. When the moxa cone burns inside the moxibustion jar, the curved plate is located at the bottom of the burning moxa cone. This allows the heat generated when the moxa cone burns at the bottom to be dispersed through the curved surface of the plate, preventing the heat from directly spreading to the user's body and causing discomfort. At the same time, the ash that falls off the burning moxa cone falls through the first round hole into the moxa cone ash collection tube for collection, thus improving the user experience of moxibustion therapy.

[0022] 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.

[0023] As described in the background section, there are shortcomings in the existing technology. In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application proposes a moxibustion jar.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-6 A moxibustion jar includes a main body 1. A ventilator 101 is fixedly installed through the top of the inner wall of the main body 1. There are four sets of ventilator 101. A baffle plate 102 is uniformly fixedly installed inside the main body 1, with the baffle plate 102 tilted downwards. An arc-shaped plate 103 is installed inside the main body 1. A connecting rod 104 is fixedly connected between the inner wall of the main body 1 and the arc-shaped plate 103. First circular holes 105 are uniformly opened inside the arc-shaped plate 103. A moxa ash collection cylinder 106 is screwed and rotated at the bottom of the first circular hole 105. A first vent hole 109 is opened at the top of the main body 1, and the ventilator 101 is connected to the first vent hole 109.

[0025] Specifically, after the moxa cone generates a large amount of heat through combustion inside the moxibustion jar body 1, the smoke generated during combustion is discharged through the vent pipe 101 and the first vent hole 109. Because the baffle plate 102 is inclined downwards, it obstructs the airflow (since the generated smoke is affected by the obstructed airflow when it is discharged through the vent pipe 101, the smoke cannot be discharged in time, allowing it to remain inside the moxibustion jar body 1 for a period of time. During this period, the smoke can be used for fumigation treatment on the patient's skin through the heat transfer hole 108). This causes the rising hot airflow generated inside the moxibustion jar body 1 to be... The heat is blocked, thus retaining most of the heat inside the moxibustion jar body 1 (and preventing heat loss with the exhaust fumes, keeping the heat inside the moxibustion jar body 1 as much as possible). At the same time, the heat generated when the moxa cone burns at the bottom is dispersed through the arc surface of the arc plate 103, preventing the heat generated when the moxa cone burns at the bottom from directly spreading to the user's body parts and causing discomfort. This allows the user to perform moxibustion therapy for a long time, improving the therapeutic effect of moxibustion. Meanwhile, the ash that falls when the moxa cone burns falls into the moxa cone ash collection tube 106 through the first round hole 105 for collection, improving the user experience of moxibustion therapy.

[0026] Furthermore, a dustproof cover 107 is installed at the bottom of the moxibustion jar body 1 by means of a threaded rotation, and the dustproof cover 107 is convex upward, and heat transfer holes 108 are evenly opened inside the dustproof cover 107.

[0027] Heat from inside the moxibustion jar body 1 is transferred to the patient's skin through the heat transfer holes 108, thereby achieving moxibustion on the patient. (Because the temperature of the moxa stick is high when it burns, most ordinary people cannot withstand the high temperature. Secondly, if it comes into direct contact with the skin, it can easily cause severe burns, resulting in skin redness, blisters, or even ulceration and infection. Therefore, a large amount of heat is retained inside the moxibustion jar body 1, and the heat inside the moxibustion jar body 1 is gradually discharged through the heat transfer holes 108, which can prolong the moxibustion time.)

[0028] Furthermore, a heat insulation layer 110 is provided at the top of the body of the moxibustion jar 1, and the vent pipe 101 is located inside the heat insulation layer 110. Second vent holes 111 are evenly provided at the bottom of the body of the moxibustion jar 1.

[0029] Specifically, the bottom of the moxibustion jar body 1 is protected by the ash cover 107. Since the ash cover 107 is an upwardly convex arc surface, the ash that slides off the side when the moxa cone is burning will accumulate on the side of the ash cover 107, preventing the ash from falling out and causing pollution during the moxibustion therapy. The heat inside the moxibustion jar body 1 is diffused through the heat transfer hole 108 for moxibustion therapy. Since the hot air is an upward airflow, the heat insulation layer 110 is used to insulate the hot air inside the moxibustion jar body 1, preventing the heat inside the moxibustion jar body 1 from being affected by the low outside temperature. The smoke inside the moxibustion jar body 1 is discharged through the second vent hole 111, preventing the smoke exhaust rate of the vent pipe 101 from decreasing and causing a large amount of smoke to accumulate inside the moxibustion jar body 1, which would affect the combustion of the moxa cone.

[0030] Furthermore, a moxa cone mounting mechanism 2 is installed on the top of the moxibustion jar body 1 via a threaded rotation. A knob 201 is fixedly installed on the top of the moxa cone mounting mechanism 2, and a moxa cone fixing needle 202 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the moxa cone mounting mechanism 2.

[0031] Furthermore, the front and rear ends of the top of the moxibustion jar body 1 are provided with sliding grooves 203, and the two sides of the top of the moxibustion jar body 1 are provided with second round holes 204, and the sliding grooves 203 and the second round holes 204 are connected in a through manner. The front and rear ends of the knob 201 are fixedly installed with sliders 205, and the sliders 205 are movably installed inside the sliding grooves 203.

[0032] Specifically, after the moxa cone is installed on the moxa cone fixing needle 202 and lit, the moxa cone fixing needle 202 is slid into the interior of the moxibustion jar body 1. At this time, the slider 205 slides into the interior of the slide groove 203 through the second round hole 204. Then, by turning the knob 201, the slider 205 slides into the inner side of the slide groove 203, thereby causing the moxa cone installation mechanism 2 to rotate and be installed on the top of the moxibustion jar body 1. At this time, the moxa cone is installed inside the moxibustion jar body 1, which makes it convenient for staff to install and light the moxa cone.

[0033] Furthermore, an anti-scalding mechanism 3 is movably installed on the outer side of the moxibustion jar body 1. A binding strap 301 is fixedly installed on one side of the anti-scalding mechanism 3. A female Velcro 302 is fixedly installed at the front end of the other side of the binding strap 301. A female Velcro 303 is fixedly installed at the rear end of one side of the binding strap 301.

[0034] Specifically, the anti-scalding mechanism 3 is wrapped around the outside of the moxibustion jar body 1, so that the female Velcro 302 and the female Velcro 303 are stuck together. The anti-scalding mechanism 3 keeps the inside of the moxibustion jar body 1 warm. Users can use the moxibustion jar body 1 for moxibustion therapy by passing their fingers through the binding strap 301 and holding the anti-scalding mechanism 3, thus avoiding burns to the user's hands and preventing the moxibustion jar body 1 from slipping and falling and breaking during use.

[0035] Working principle: First, the user installs the moxa cone on the moxa cone fixing needle 202. Then, after lighting the moxa cone, the user inserts the moxa cone fixing needle 202 into the interior of the moxibustion jar body 1. At this time, the slider 205 slides into the interior of the slide groove 203 through the second round hole 204, thereby fixing the moxa cone installation mechanism 2 on the top of the moxibustion jar body 1. The heat and smoke generated by the burning moxa cone rise first. The smoke is discharged through the vent pipe 101 and the first vent hole 109. Since the baffle plate 102 is inclined downward, it forms a blockage to the airflow, allowing the smoke to be discharged slowly. At the same time, it avoids a large loss of heat inside the moxibustion jar body 1. Since the top of the inner wall of the moxibustion jar body 1 is arc-shaped, the generated heat accumulates and flows downward, providing moxibustion therapy to the user's body parts.

[0036] The ash produced when the moxa cone burns falls into the moxa cone ash collection cylinder 106 through the first round hole 105. Since the arc plate 103 is an arc surface, the heat generated when the moxa cone burns is dispersed to the side through the arc plate 103, avoiding the heat from the burning moxa cone from directly diffusing downwards to the user's body parts and causing discomfort.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
