Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically a moxibustion device. Background Technology

[0002] Moxibustion is an important method in traditional Chinese medicine. It is a treatment method that uses the heat generated by burning mugwort to stimulate acupoints or specific parts of the body, thereby stimulating the activity of Qi and regulating disordered physiological and biochemical functions of the body to achieve the purpose of preventing and treating diseases. Traditional moxibustion methods mainly involve directly applying moxa sticks by hand or using moxibustion jars, but these methods have some shortcomings.

[0003] Traditional moxibustion using handheld moxa sticks is difficult to maintain a stable position and distance for extended periods. Moxibustion using moxa jars, on the other hand, involves a fixed position of the moxa stick inside, which can lead to temperature instability due to changes in the burning position of the moxa stick during use, affecting the therapeutic effect. Furthermore, when using insertable moxa jars, the moxa stick needs to be inserted from the bottom of the jar, which can cause it to fall off during moxibustion, and the falling ash can burn the skin. Utility Model Content

[0006] The moxibustion jar is equipped with a base at its bottom, and the base has evenly spaced moxibustion holes. The surface of the base is also equipped with massage auxiliary components to provide different massage effects for the moxibustion jar during clinical moxibustion.

[0007] The mounting frame has a handle block on each side, and the handle block and the mounting frame form a T-shaped frame structure. The outer wall of the upper opening of the moxibustion jar is provided with a thread for connecting with the mounting frame, and a limiting sleeve is provided inside the mounting frame.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the moxibustion jar can effectively fix the moxa stick and the moxibustion site, preventing the moxa stick from shaking or shifting during the burning process, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of moxibustion.

[0009] Preferably, the moxibustion jar has four vents evenly spaced on its side wall, and the vents are connected to the inner cavity of the moxibustion jar.

[0010] Using the above technical solution, the ventilation opening provides oxygen for the burning of moxa sticks inside the moxibustion jar.

[0011] Preferably, the bottom of the moxibustion jar is provided with heat-through holes evenly distributed, and the heat-through holes connect the inner cavity of the moxibustion jar with the bottom of the moxibustion jar.

[0012] Using the above technical solution, the heat vent installed at the bottom of the moxibustion jar provides a flow guide for the heat from the burning moxa stick.

[0013] Preferably, the limiting sleeve is configured as a ring structure, and the inner wall surface of the limiting sleeve is provided with two layers of anti-slip teeth, and each layer of anti-slip teeth is equidistant from the center of the limiting sleeve in a clockwise direction.

[0014] Using the above technical solution, the anti-slip teeth provide a corresponding limiting structure for the limiting sleeve to restrict the moxa stick, thus assisting in moxibustion.

[0015] Preferably, an activated carbon filter is provided between the base and the moxibustion jar, and the activated carbon filter is located below the heat vent and above the moxibustion hole.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the activated carbon filter is located between the moxibustion jar and the base to filter the moxibustion smoke.

[0017] Preferably, the massage aid component includes:

[0018] The toothed massage protrusions are located at the bottom end of the base, and the toothed massage protrusions are arranged in an arc shape at equal intervals of one-third on the bottom end surface of the base.

[0019] A strip-shaped massage protrusion is provided at the bottom end of the base, and the strip-shaped massage protrusion is arranged in an arc shape on the bottom end surface of the base;

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the massage auxiliary component provides highly flexible massage conditions for the use of moxibustion jars.

[0022] Preferably, the toothed massage protrusions, strip-shaped massage protrusions, and wave-shaped massage protrusions form a ring at the bottom end of the base.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the space at the bottom of the base is fully utilized to provide different massage effects.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the moxibustion device:

[0025] 1. The installation of the moxibustion jar and the mounting frame provides space for adjusting the placement height of the moxa stick. The limiting sleeve and the anti-slip teeth inside the mounting frame hold the moxa stick. The anti-slip teeth fit the surface of the moxa stick as it is inserted, thus fixing the moxa stick in the height position inside the moxibustion jar. During moxibustion, the moxibustion jar can effectively fix the moxa stick and the moxibustion site, preventing the moxa stick from shaking or shifting during burning. This ensures the accuracy and stability of moxibustion and reduces the risk of fire and other safety hazards caused by the moxa stick falling.

[0026] 2. The moxibustion jar transfers the heat from the burning moxa stick to the moxibustion holes in the base through the heat vents at the bottom. By controlling the height of the moxa stick, the heat and stimulation provided by the moxa stick are relatively gentle, allowing people to feel a comfortable warmth when receiving moxibustion treatment. The activated carbon filter located between the moxibustion jar and the base filters the moxibustion smoke. At the same time, as the moxa stick is inserted into the moxibustion jar from the top, the moxibustion smoke flows downward and is intercepted and accumulated in the moxibustion jar by the activated carbon filter, which can reduce the spread of smoke produced when the moxa stick is burning to a certain extent.

[0027] The three-in-one massage structure, consisting of toothed massage bumps, strip-shaped massage bumps, and wave-shaped massage bumps located on the base, is designed to meet the individual massage needs of patients. When combined with acupoint massage during moxibustion, it helps to promote the circulation of Qi and blood and harmonize the balance of Qi and blood. Attached Figure Description

[0039] The mounting frame 2 has a handle block 3 on each side, and the handle block 3 and the mounting frame 2 form a T-shaped frame structure. The outer wall of the upper opening of the moxibustion jar 1 is provided with a thread for connecting with the mounting frame 2. The mounting frame 2 is fitted with a limiting sleeve 4, which is a ring structure. The inner wall of the limiting sleeve 4 is provided with two layers of anti-slip teeth 5, and each layer of anti-slip teeth 5 is equidistant from the center of the limiting sleeve 4 in a clockwise direction.

[0040] Referring to the attached diagrams in the instruction manual Figure 1-6As shown, the ventilation opening 6 on the side wall of the moxibustion jar 1 provides conditions for internal air circulation. The heat transmission hole 7 at the bottom of the moxibustion jar 1 works with the moxibustion hole 10 of the base 9 to transfer the heat of the moxa stick. The activated carbon filter 8 between the base 9 and the moxibustion jar 1 is used to filter the smoke from the moxa stick. The activated carbon filter 8 can be replaced by disassembling and assembling the base 9 and the moxibustion jar 1. The mounting bracket 2 can be separated from the moxibustion jar 1 by rotating it, which makes it easy to clean the moxa ash left inside the moxibustion jar 1.
