Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical technology, and in particular to an improved moxibustion box. Background Technology

[0002] Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy that uses lit moxa sticks to fumigate acupoints on the body to achieve health maintenance and disease treatment. When performing moxibustion on certain specific areas, such as the waist and neck, a moxibustion box is often used because it takes a relatively long time. The moxibustion box is a wooden box without a bottom, but the bottom is sealed with a fine wire mesh. The top of the box can be opened. During use, a lit moxa stick is placed inside the box, which is then placed on the area to be treated. Because of the wire mesh, the moxa stick and any remaining ash will not fall off, but the heat can seep down through the mesh, thus producing a large-area, long-lasting moxibustion effect, and it does not require holding the device.

[0003] However, current moxibustion boxes have several problems. First, the placement of the moxa stick is generally fixed, and it cannot be moved directly above the area to be treated, resulting in poor therapeutic effects. Second, different patients have different heat tolerance levels, and the heat of moxibustion is adjusted by the distance between the moxa stick and the patient. With a moxibustion box placed on the patient, the distance between the burning moxa stick and the patient cannot be adjusted, and the box is prone to slipping. Third, the smoke produced during moxibustion is quite pungent, affecting the environment, and many patients cannot tolerate the acrid smell.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for a moxibustion box that allows for adjustment of the placement of the moxa stick, the height of the moxibustion box, and reduces the smell of moxibustion smoke. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an improved moxibustion box that allows for adjustment of the placement position of the moxa stick, the height of the moxibustion box, and the reduction of moxibustion smoke.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] An improved moxibustion box mainly includes a box body and a lid. The lid is closed over the opening of the box body. The lid has a cover hole, and an insert is arranged around the cover hole. The insert is installed on the top surface of the lid, and a filter is detachably installed on the insert. The filter is filled with filter material, and an exhaust duct with an exhaust fan is detachably installed on the filter. A first steel mesh and a second steel mesh are installed inside the box body. Both the first and second steel meshes are parallel to the opening of the box, with the first steel mesh located below the second steel mesh. A retaining strip is arranged around the inner wall of the box body, and the second steel mesh is placed on the retaining strip. Multiple fixing cylinders for fixing moxa sticks are inserted into the mesh holes of the second steel mesh. The fixing cylinders are through cylinders, and multiple ventilation holes are opened on the cylinder walls. A baffle is installed at the bottom of the fixing cylinder, which does not completely cover the lower end of the fixing cylinder. An insert rod is installed at the lower end of the baffle, and the insert rod is inserted into the mesh holes of the second steel mesh. The box body is provided with a lifting structure.

[0008] Furthermore, the lifting structure mainly includes two sets of lifting components, which are connected by a connecting rod. A connecting hole is provided on the side wall of the box body, located below the first steel mesh. A connecting rod passes through the connecting hole, parallel to the length direction of the box body. Both ends of the connecting rod are equipped with stops, which abut against the outer surface of the box body. A set of lifting components is installed at each end of the connecting rod, one of which has a handle for rotating the drive gear. Each lifting component includes a drive gear, a driven gear, a lifting rod, two guide rods, and a connecting plate. The drive gear is installed at the end of the connecting rod, and its axis coincides with the axis of the connecting rod. Two first protruding strips are installed on the two outer surfaces of the box body. The first and second protruding strips are installed between the two first protruding strips. The length directions of the first and second protruding strips are parallel to the height direction of the box. Each of the two first protruding strips has a sliding hole, the length direction of which is parallel to the length direction of the first protruding strip. A guide rod is slidably connected in each sliding hole. The second protruding strip has a threaded hole, the length direction of which is parallel to the length direction of the second protruding strip. A lifting rod is threaded into the threaded hole. The lower ends of the two guide rods and the lifting rod are vertically connected to the connecting plate. A driven gear is threaded onto the lifting rod. The driven gear meshes with the driving gear. Both the driving gear and the driven gear are helical gears. Two limiting plates are provided on the two outer sides of the box. The driven gear is located between the two limiting plates.

[0009] Furthermore, protective covers are detachably installed on the two outer sides of the box body. The first protrusion, the second protrusion, the driving gear and the driven gear are covered inside the protective covers. The lifting rod and the guide rod extend from the bottom of the protective cover. The protective plate has a plate hole, and the handle extends out of the protective plate from the plate hole.

[0010] Furthermore, the handle has a Z-shaped structure.

[0011] Furthermore, the front and back of the box are provided with air inlets, and the front and back of the box are provided with baffles next to the air inlets. The baffles are rotatably connected to the box and can be moved to block the air inlets.

[0012] Furthermore, the box body and the box lid are rotatably connected by a hinge structure, and the box body and the box lid are fixed by a locking structure.

[0013] Furthermore, both the inner walls of the box body and the box lid are provided with fireproof and heat-insulating layers.

[0014] Furthermore, the filter material is an activated carbon or glass fiber filter.

[0015] Furthermore, the lower ends of the front and back sides of the box are curved surfaces, with the openings of the curved surfaces facing downwards.

[0016] Furthermore, the baffle is made of steel wire in a cross shape.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. A filter cartridge is installed inside the insert on the lid, and an exhaust fan is installed on the filter cartridge. When moxibustion is performed, the exhaust fan on the exhaust fan is turned on. The air force generated by the exhaust fan draws the smoke generated inside the box into the filter cartridge. After being filtered by the filter material inside the filter cartridge, the smoke generated by moxibustion is discharged from the box by the exhaust fan, reducing the impact of the smoke generated by moxibustion on the outside air.

[0019] 2. The second steel mesh inside the box is connected to a fixed cylinder containing an moxa stick. The position of the fixed cylinder is adjustable, making it convenient to place the moxa stick directly above the area to be treated, thus improving the therapeutic effect. The first steel mesh is located below the second steel mesh and is used to catch the ash produced by the moxa stick, preventing the ash from falling directly onto the patient.

[0020] 3. The moxa box is positioned on the bed via a height-adjustable mechanism, ensuring it is directly above the patient and does not slip off. This height adjustment keeps the box always above the patient, making it suitable for patients of different body types. Furthermore, adjusting the height of the box adjusts the distance between the moxa stick and the patient, thus regulating the heat output and minimizing the risk of burns.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0032] A specific embodiment, as shown in the figure, represents a preferred embodiment of this utility model. An improved moxibustion box mainly includes a box body 1 and a lid 7. The lid 7 covers the opening of the box body 1. The lid 7 has a cover hole 18, and an insert 8 is circumferentially mounted on the cover hole 18. The insert 8 is installed on the top surface of the lid 7. A filter 9 is detachably mounted on the insert 8, and the filter 9 is filled with filter material. An exhaust duct 10 is detachably mounted on the filter 9, and an exhaust fan 12 is installed inside the exhaust duct 10. A first steel mesh 23 and a second steel mesh 20 are installed inside the box body 1. Both the first steel mesh 23 and the second steel mesh 20 are parallel to the opening of the box. 23 is located below the second steel mesh 20. The inner wall of the box body 1 is provided with a retaining strip 22. The second steel mesh 20 is placed on the retaining strip 22. Multiple fixing cylinders 21 for fixing moxa sticks are inserted into the mesh of the second steel mesh 20. The fixing cylinder 21 is a through cylinder. Multiple ventilation holes are opened on the cylinder wall of the fixing cylinder 21. A baffle 26 is installed at the bottom of the fixing cylinder 21. The baffle 26 does not completely cover the lower end of the fixing cylinder 21. An insertion rod 27 is installed at the lower end of the baffle 26. The insertion rod 27 is inserted into the mesh of the second steel mesh 20. The box body 1 is provided with a lifting structure.

[0033] In practical use, after the patient lies on the bed, medical staff adjust the approximate height of the box 1 using the lifting mechanism. The box 1 is then placed on the bed, spanning across the patient. During moxibustion, the height of the box 1 can be finely adjusted using the lifting mechanism. After the box 1 is in place, the lid 7 is opened, and the positions of the multiple fixing cylinders 21 on the second steel mesh 20 are adjusted so that the fixing cylinders 21 are positioned above the area requiring moxibustion. The insertion rods 27 below the fixing cylinders 21 are inserted into the mesh openings of the second steel mesh 20, preventing the fixing cylinders 21 from tipping over. Because the moxibustion box is reusable, a sticky substance is generated inside the box 1 each time moxibustion is performed. Over time, this sticky substance increases and can cause the insertion rods 27 to stick. Therefore, the diameter of the insertion rods 27 is smaller than the mesh openings of the second steel mesh 20 to facilitate easy insertion of the insertion rods 27 into the mesh openings. Furthermore, the second steel mesh 20 is movably placed on the retaining strip 22, allowing it to be removed for cleaning or replacement. After the position of the fixing cylinder 21 on the second steel mesh 20 is adjusted, the lit moxa stick is placed inside the fixing cylinder 21 with the burning end facing down. The moxa stick is confined within the fixing cylinder 21 by the baffle 26 inside, allowing the solid cylinder to be lifted and the moxibustion site adjusted even during moxibustion. Hospitals typically use moxa sticks with a diameter of 25mm, which are quite thick and have a large burning area. Therefore, the baffle 26 at the lower end of the solid cylinder does not completely obstruct the burning end of the moxa stick, thus not affecting its combustion. Furthermore, the baffle 26 is made of steel wire in a cross shape, which not only confines the moxa stick within the fixing cylinder 21 but also reduces the contact area with the burning end of the moxa stick, minimizing the impact on moxibustion treatment. The ash produced after the moxa stick burns falls from the second steel mesh 20 onto the first steel mesh 23. The first steel mesh 23 is denser, preventing the ash from falling directly onto the patient and causing burns. The first steel mesh 23 and the second steel mesh 20 do not obstruct the heat generated by the moxa stick and do not affect the therapeutic effect of moxibustion. During moxibustion, the moxa stick produces smoke, which is quite pungent and disliked by many patients. Therefore, a filter cylinder 9 is detachably installed inside the insert 8 of the box cover 7, and an exhaust fan 12 is detachably installed on the filter cylinder 9. When moxibustion is performed, the exhaust fan 12 is turned on, and the airflow generated by the exhaust fan 12 draws the smoke from the box 1 into the filter cylinder 9. The smoke is then filtered by the filter material inside the filter cylinder 9 and discharged to the outside, reducing the impact of moxibustion smoke on the outside air and improving patient comfort. Furthermore, the filter material is an activated carbon or glass fiber filter, which facilitates the filtration and adsorption of moxibustion smoke. When the exhaust fan 12 is turned on, it accelerates the air circulation inside the box 1, allowing the moxa stick to burn better. The degree of burning of the moxa stick can also determine the amount of heat produced. In order to better regulate the heat produced by the moxa stick for moxibustion.Furthermore, the box body 1 has air inlets 19 on its front and back sides, and baffles 11 are provided next to the air inlets 19 on both sides of the box body 1. The baffles 11 are rotatably connected to the box body 1 and movably cover the air inlets 19. When it is necessary to increase the heat of moxibustion, the baffles 11 are rotated to expose the air inlets 19, thereby increasing the amount of air entering the box body 1, increasing the degree of burning of the moxa stick, and thus increasing the heat generated. The area of ​​the baffles 11 covering the air inlets 19 is adjustable, thereby regulating the amount of air entering.

[0034] There are many types of lifting structures that can be set up for box 1. For example, a telescopic rod can be used to extend and retract to adjust the height of box 1. However, for box 1 to be placed stably, at least three telescopic rods are required. When adjusting the height of the three telescopic rods, the heights of the three telescopic rods cannot be adjusted synchronously, which is time-consuming and laborious. To ensure stable height adjustment of the box body 1, the lifting structure further includes two sets of lifting components connected by a connecting rod 13. A connecting hole is provided on the side wall of the box body 1, located below the first steel mesh 23. The connecting rod 13 passes through the connecting hole and is parallel to the length of the box body 1. Both ends of the connecting rod 13 are equipped with stops 14, which abut against the outer surface of the box body 1. A set of lifting components is installed at each end of the connecting rod 13, one of which is equipped with a handle 5 for rotating the drive gear 15. Each lifting component includes a drive gear 15, a driven gear 16, a lifting rod 4, two guide rods 2, and a connecting plate 3. The drive gear 15 is installed at the end of the connecting rod 13, and its axis coincides with the axis of the connecting rod 13. Two guide rods 16 are installed on the two outer surfaces of the box body 1. A first protrusion 17 and a second protrusion 24 are provided, with the second protrusion 24 installed between the two first protrusions 17. The length directions of the first protrusions 17 and the second protrusion 24 are parallel to the height direction of the box body 1. Each of the two first protrusions 17 has a sliding hole, the length direction of which is parallel to the length direction of the first protrusion 17. A guide rod 2 is slidably connected in each of the sliding holes. The second protrusion 24 has a threaded hole, the length direction of which is parallel to the length direction of the second protrusion 24. A lifting rod 4 is threadedly connected in the threaded hole. The lower ends of the two guide rods 2 and the lifting rod 4 are vertically connected to the connecting plate 3. A driven gear 16 is threadedly connected to the lifting rod 4. The driven gear 16 meshes with the driving gear 15. Both the driving gear 15 and the driven gear 16 are helical gears. Two limiting plates 25 are provided on the two outer sides of the box body 1, with the driven gear 16 located between the two limiting plates 25.

[0035] When the height of the box 1 needs to be adjusted, turn the handle 5. The handle 5 drives the two lifting components to rise and fall synchronously, allowing the box 1 to rise and fall stably. Turning the handle 5 drives the drive gear 15 connected to the handle 5 to rotate. The drive gear 15 drives the connecting rod 13 and the drive gear 15 of the other lifting component to rotate together. Because the drive gear 15 meshes with the driven gear 16, the drive gear 15 drives the driven gear 16 to rotate. Under the limiting action of the two limiting plates 25, the driven gear 16 maintains a constant height position. The rotation of the driven gear 16 causes the lifting rod 4, which is threadedly connected to the driven gear 16, to rise and fall within the threaded hole. Therefore, the two lifting rods 4 rise and fall synchronously. Because the lifting rod 4 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole, the lifting rod 4 is fixed to the box 1 and will not fall off. Furthermore, because the lower end of the lifting rod 4 is vertically connected to the connecting plate 3, and the connecting plate 3 is equipped with two guide rods 2, which are slidably connected within the sliding hole, the limiting action of the guide rods 2 improves the stability of the box 1 during lifting, raising, and placement.

[0036] To prevent the driving gear 15 and driven gear 16 from being exposed, which would be unsightly and could easily scratch others, protective covers are detachably installed on the two outer sides of the housing 1. The first protrusion 17, the second protrusion 24, the driving gear 15, and the driven gear 16 are covered by the protective covers. The lifting rod 4 and the guide rod 2 extend from the bottom of the protective covers. The protective plate 6 has a hole, and the handle 5 extends out of the protective plate 6 through the hole.

[0037] Furthermore, the handle 5 has a Z-shaped structure, which facilitates the rotation of the handle 5.

[0038] Furthermore, the box body 1 and the box cover 7 are rotatably connected by a hinge structure, and the box body 1 and the box cover 7 are fixed by a locking structure.

[0039] Furthermore, both the inner walls of the box body 1 and the box cover 7 are provided with fireproof and heat-insulating layers to reduce heat loss and improve the treatment effect.

[0040] Furthermore, the lower ends of the front and back sides of the box 1 are curved surfaces, with the openings of the curved surfaces facing downwards, making the curved surfaces more in line with human body structure.

[0041] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made under the technical spirit of the present utility model should fall within the patent scope covered by the present utility model.
