Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and more specifically, to a device for treating moxa stick ash. Background Technology
[0002] Moxibustion, also known as moxibustion therapy or moxibustion method, is a treatment method that uses burning moxa sticks or cones made from mugwort leaves to generate heat that stimulates acupoints or specific areas of the body. This heat stimulates the flow of Qi (vital energy) to regulate disordered physiological and biochemical functions, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing and treating diseases. Among moxibustion treatments, gourd moxibustion and fire dragon jars are widely used. Gourd moxibustion typically involves cutting off the bottom of a gourd and setting multiple fixing posts around the sides of the opening. The moxa stick is inserted into these posts for fixation before being lit. Fire dragon jars have fixing posts at the bottom of the jar for burning. Other types of moxibustion devices also mostly involve inserting moxa sticks into fixing posts for burning. After the moxibustion treatment with these devices, the ash from the moxa sticks on the fixing posts needs to be removed.
[0003] Currently, in clinical practice, most moxa ash is directly picked up with tweezers or clamps. During the process, the moxa stick ash is broken, and the moxa stick may not be completely burned out when the moxibustion treatment is finished. When handling it, sparks will fall everywhere, posing a fire hazard and easily burning medical staff. The moxa ash falling on the treatment cart or the ground is also quite troublesome to clean up. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the fire hazard in the prior art when processing moxa ash, this utility model provides a moxa ash processing device that can isolate the moxa ash during processing, prevent it from falling everywhere, eliminate fire hazards, and improve operational safety.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a device for treating moxa stick ash, comprising: a clamping member, a first scraper and a second scraper respectively connected to two clamping ends of the clamping member, and a side plate connected to the first scraper or the second scraper. The first scraper and the second scraper are respectively provided with a first abutting surface and a second abutting surface. The clamping member drives the first scraper and the second scraper to approach and abut against each other or move away from each other. When the first scraper and the second scraper abut against each other, the first abutting surface and the second abutting surface fit together. The first scraper, the second scraper and the side plate form a sealed cavity.
[0006] The clamping component is used to drive the first and second scrapers to clamp and abut against each other. The clamping component can adopt a structure similar to clamps, tweezers, or pliers. The first and second scrapers are used to clamp the fixing post of the moxa stick and then scrape off the moxa ash. Both the first and second scrapers are plate-shaped. Compared to directly scraping the ash with tweezers, the design of the first and second scrapers can more effectively suppress the falling of moxa ash. Furthermore, the first or second scraper is connected to a side plate, which is used to further block the moxa ash from the side. After the first and second scrapers abut against each other, when the first and second scrapers are not clamping the external fixing post, they form a sealed cavity with the side plate. The first and second scrapers are located on the upper part of the side plate, which can control the moxa ash to fall downwards instead of drifting to the side. If the first and second scrapers are located on the lower part of the side plate, most of the moxa ash can be kept in the sealed cavity during scraping, which can also better prevent the moxa ash from drifting around. One or two side plates can be set. When one is set, the side plate is a circumferential ring plate and is connected to either the first or second scraper. When two are set, the side plates adopt a semi-enclosed structure, and the two side plates are connected to the first and second scrapers respectively. When the first and second scrapers abut against each other, the two side plates also abut against each other and cooperate to form an enclosed structure.
[0007] Preferably, the first contact surface and the second contact surface are respectively provided with a first clearance groove and a second clearance groove. When the first scraper and the second scraper abut against each other, the first clearance groove and the second clearance groove cooperate to form a clearance hole.
[0008] When the first and second scrapers clamp the external fixed column, there will be a gap. The first and second clearance grooves are provided to accommodate the external fixed column, so that the first and second scrapers can be completely abutted together, thus fully preventing the ash from floating out.
[0009] Preferably, the first scraper and the second scraper are respectively connected to a first connecting part and a second connecting part, and the first connecting part and the second connecting part are detachably connected to the clamping end of the clamping member.
[0010] The clamping component is detachably connected to the first scraper and the second scraper via the first connecting part and the second connecting part, which improves the flexibility of the device. When dealing with moxibustion devices with smaller cavities, such as the fire dragon cup, smaller-sized components such as the first scraper, the second scraper, and the side plate can be replaced to meet the moxa ash treatment needs of various moxibustion devices.
[0011] Preferably, the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are rotatably connected to the first scraper and the second scraper, respectively.
[0012] The rotating connection allows for adjustment of the angle between the clamping component and the side plate, making it more convenient to use.
[0013] Preferably, a sealing plate is connected to the end of the side plate away from the first scraper or the second scraper, and when the first scraper and the second scraper abut against each other, the first scraper, the second scraper, the side plate and the sealing plate form a sealed cavity.
[0014] When the first and second clearance grooves are set, the first scraper, the second scraper and the side plate cannot form a sealed cavity. After the sealing plate is set, the first scraper, the second scraper, the side plate and the sealing plate form a sealed cavity with openings at the first and second clearance grooves, which fully isolates the ash from the moxa sticks.
[0015] Preferably, the side plate is an annular plate, the first scraper is fixedly connected to the side plate, and the second scraper is slidably connected to the side plate.
[0016] When only one side plate is provided, the side plate is set as an annular plate. At this time, the side plate and the sealing plate are connected to each other to form a cup-shaped structure. The second scraper slides open and close relative to the side plate.
[0017] Preferably, a guide post is connected to the first contact surface, and the second scraper is slidably connected to the first scraper through the guide post.
[0018] Setting guide posts facilitates the alignment of the first and second scrapers, thereby ensuring precise alignment of the first and second clearance grooves. The guide posts can be set to be arc-shaped or straight. When set to arc-shaped, the center of the arc coincides with the rotation position of the clamping member to avoid jamming. When set to straight, a gap is set between the first or second connecting part and the clamping member to avoid deflection between the clamping end of the clamping member and the first or second connecting part, thus preventing jamming.
[0019] Preferably, an elastic element is sleeved on the guide post, and the two ends of the elastic element abut against the first scraper and the second scraper, respectively.
[0020] The elastic element is designed to assist in separating the first and second scrapers, and can also assist in opening the clamping element.
[0021] Preferably, the first scraper and the side plate are detachably fixedly connected.
[0022] The detachable connection facilitates cleaning of the side panels and sealing plates.
[0023] Preferably, the side plate is semi-enclosed, and the first scraper and the second scraper are respectively connected to the side plate. When the two side plates abut against each other, they fit together. The first connecting part and the second connecting part are rotatably disposed on the two side plates and are located at one end close to the sealing plate.
[0024] When two side plates are provided, the side plates form a semi-enclosed shape. When closed, they form an enclosed shape. The first connecting part and the second connecting part are located at the end near the sealing plate. When cleaning the fire dragon can, the first connecting part and the second connecting part will be located at the opening of the fire dragon can, which makes it easy to adjust the angle of the clamping parts.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0026] 1. The clamping component drives the first scraper and the second scraper to clamp each other, which can then be clamped onto the external fixing column used to fix the moxa stick. When scraping the moxa stick ash, the first scraper, the second scraper and the side plate will block the moxa stick ash, preventing the moxa stick ash from falling everywhere, eliminating fire hazards, and also preventing medical staff from being burned by the moxa stick ash, making the operation safer.
[0027] 2. The clamping part is detachably connected to both the first and second connecting parts, which makes it easy to replace the first scraper, second scraper and side plate with smaller sizes, so as to accommodate moxibustion tools and moxa sticks of different sizes.

[0035] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0036] Example 1
[0037] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an ash removal device for moxa sticks includes: a clamping member 1, a first scraper 2 and a second scraper 3 respectively connected to two clamping ends of the clamping member 1, and a side plate 4 connected to the first scraper 2 or the second scraper 3. The first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 are respectively provided with a first abutting surface 5 and a second abutting surface 6. The clamping member 1 drives the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 to approach and abut against each other or move away from each other. When the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 abut against each other, the first abutting surface 5 and the second abutting surface 6 fit together, and the first scraper 2, the second scraper 3 and the side plate 4 form a sealed cavity.
[0038] The clamping component 1 is used to drive the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 to clamp and abut against each other. The clamping component 1 can adopt a structure similar to clamps, tweezers, pliers, etc. The first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 are used to clamp the fixing post of the moxa stick and then scrape off the moxa stick ash. Both the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 are plate-shaped. Compared with directly using tweezers to scrape off the ash, the setting of the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 can more effectively suppress the moxa stick ash from falling. Furthermore, the first scraper 2 or the second scraper 3 is connected to a side plate 4. The side plate 4 is used to further block the moxa stick ash from the side. After the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 abut against each other, when the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 are not clamping the external fixing post, they form a sealed cavity with the side plate 4. The first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 are set on the upper part of the side plate 4, which can control the moxa stick ash to fall downwards instead of drifting to the side. If the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 are set on the lower part of the side plate 4, most of the moxa stick ash can be left in the sealed cavity when scraping the ash, which can also better prevent the moxa stick ash from drifting around. One or two side plates 4 can be set. When one is set, the side plate 4 is a ring-shaped plate that surrounds the circumference and is then connected to either the first scraper 2 or the second scraper 3. When two are set, the side plates 4 adopt a semi-enclosed structure. The two side plates 4 are connected to the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 respectively. When the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 abut against each other, the two side plates 4 also abut against each other and cooperate to form an enclosed structure.
[0039] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are: the clamping member 1 drives the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 to clamp each other, and then can be clamped on the external fixing column for fixing the moxa stick. When scraping the moxa stick ash, the first scraper 2, the second scraper 3 and the side plate 4 will block the moxa stick ash, prevent the moxa stick ash from falling everywhere, eliminate fire hazards, and prevent medical staff from being burned by the moxa stick ash, making the operation safer.
[0040] Example 2
[0041] The difference between Example 1 and Example 2 is as follows:
[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, the first contact surface 5 and the second contact surface 6 are respectively provided with a first clearance groove 7 and a second clearance groove 8. When the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 abut against each other, the first clearance groove 7 and the second clearance groove 8 cooperate to form a clearance hole. Figure 1-2As shown, the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 are respectively connected to a first connecting part 9 and a second connecting part 10, which are detachably connected to the clamping end of the clamping member 1. The first connecting part 9 and the second connecting part 10 are rotatably connected to the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3, respectively. A sealing plate 11 is connected to the end of the side plate 4 away from the first scraper 2 or the second scraper 3. When the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 abut against each other, the first scraper 2, the second scraper 3, the side plate 4, and the sealing plate 11 form a sealed cavity. Figure 3 As shown, the side plate 4 is an annular plate. The first scraper 2 is fixedly connected to the side plate 4, and the second scraper 3 is slidably connected to the side plate 4. A guide post 12 is connected to the first contact surface 5, and the second scraper 3 is slidably connected to the first scraper 2 through the guide post 12. An elastic element 13 is sleeved on the guide post 12, and both ends of the elastic element 13 abut against the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3, respectively. The first scraper 2 and the side plate 4 are detachably fixedly connected.
[0043] When the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 clamp the external fixing post, there will be gaps. The first clearance groove 7 and the second clearance groove 8 are provided to accommodate the external fixing post, allowing the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 to completely abut against each other, effectively preventing moxa ash from escaping. The clamping member 1 is detachably connected to the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 via the first connecting part 9 and the second connecting part 10, improving the flexibility of the device. When handling moxibustion devices with smaller cavities, such as the fire dragon jar, smaller-sized components such as the first scraper 2, the second scraper 3, and the side plate 4 can be replaced to meet the moxa ash processing needs of various moxibustion devices. A rotating connection allows adjustment of the angle between the clamping member 1 and the side plate 4, making it more convenient to use. When the first clearance groove 7 and the second clearance groove 8 are provided, the first scraper 2, the second scraper 3, and the side plate 4 cannot form a sealed cavity. After the sealing plate 11 is provided, the first scraper 2, the second scraper 3, the side plate 4, and the sealing plate 11 form a sealed cavity with openings located at the first clearance groove 7 and the second clearance groove 8, effectively isolating the moxa ash. When only one side plate 4 is provided, the side plate 4 is set as an annular plate. At this time, the side plate 4 and the sealing plate 11 are connected to form a cup-shaped structure. The second scraper 3 slides open and close relative to the side plate 4. The guide post 12 is set to facilitate the alignment of the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3, thereby ensuring that the first clearance groove 7 and the second clearance groove 8 can be accurately aligned. The guide post 12 can be set as an arc or a straight line. When set as an arc, the center of the arc coincides with the rotation position of the clamping part 1 to avoid jamming. Figure 1-2 As shown, when a straight line is provided, a gap is provided between the first connecting part 9 or the second connecting part 10 and the clamping member 1 to prevent deflection between the clamping end of the clamping member 1 and the first connecting part 9 or the second connecting part 10, thus avoiding jamming. An elastic member 13 is provided to assist in the separation of the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3, and can also assist in opening the clamping member 1. A detachable connection is provided for easy cleaning of the side plate 4 and the sealing plate 11.
[0044] The remaining features and working principles of this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiment 1.
[0045] Example 3
[0046] Based on Example 1 or Example 2, Example 1 or Example 2 are further defined, with the following differences:
[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, the side plate 4 is semi-enclosed, and the first scraper 2 and the second scraper 3 are respectively connected to the side plate 4. When the two side plates 4 abut against each other, they fit together. The first connecting part 9 and the second connecting part 10 are respectively rotatably disposed on the two side plates 4 and located at one end close to the sealing plate 11.
[0048] When two side plates 4 are provided, the side plates 4 form a semi-enclosed shape. After being closed, they form an enclosed shape. The first connecting part 9 and the second connecting part 10 are located at one end close to the sealing plate 11. When cleaning the fire dragon can, the first connecting part 9 and the second connecting part 10 will be located at the opening of the fire dragon can, which makes it easy to adjust the angle of the clamping part 1.
[0049] The remaining working principles and processes of this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2.
[0050] In the specific implementation of the above embodiments, the technical features can be combined in any non-contradictory way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the above technical features are described. However, as long as the combination of these technical features is not contradictory, it should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0051] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
