Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy equipment, specifically to a multi-head constant temperature moxibustion therapy device. Background Technology

[0002] Moxibustion, a common physiotherapy method in Traditional Chinese Medicine, typically involves burning moxa sticks or moxa wool in a moxibustion device and applying it to the patient's skin. This provides localized heat stimulation, enhancing local blood and lymphatic circulation and strengthening the metabolic capacity of skin tissue. To improve patient adaptability during moxibustion, current methods generally employ temperature-controlled devices, which can regulate the temperature through electrical (heater control) or pneumatic (gas flow control) methods.

[0003] Existing constant-temperature moxibustion devices are typically single-head devices, meaning one device per moxibustion head. However, due to varying treatment plans, some patients may require two or more moxibustion heads to be used simultaneously. Therefore, the existing devices cannot meet the treatment needs of many patients. If the moxibustion device were designed with a multi-head structure, additional structures connecting multiple moxibustion heads would be needed. However, these additional connecting structures and moxibustion heads would occupy more storage space, making storage inconvenient. Furthermore, they would increase the risk of collisions and obstructions when retrieving the device, and would also be more difficult to remove. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model of a multi-head constant temperature moxibustion therapy device can effectively solve the problem of large space occupation and inconvenience of storage and retrieval in the existing moxibustion equipment.

[0005] According to one aspect of the present invention, a multi-head constant temperature moxibustion therapy device is provided, comprising:

[0006] The base, which is equipped with a main unit frame;

[0007] Multiple moxibustion components are evenly and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the main frame;

[0008] The moxibustion assembly includes a moxibustion head and a telescopic rod connected to each other. The telescopic rod is rotatably mounted on the main frame. The moxibustion head is extended along both sides of the main frame by the telescopic rod. By rotating the telescopic rod, the moxibustion head is brought closer to and stored on both sides of the main frame.

[0009] In some embodiments, the main frame has storage slots on both sides, one end of the telescopic rod is rotatably disposed in the storage slot, and the free end of the telescopic rod is connected to the moxibustion head. All or part of the telescopic rod and the moxibustion head are accommodated within the storage slot. Thus, the storage slots provide space for storing the moxibustion components, which helps to further save storage space for the moxibustion components and makes the overall device more compact.

[0010] In some implementations, the projection of the main frame completely overlaps with the projection of the base in the direction of gravity. Consequently, the base occupies the largest area at the bottom, while the main frame and moxibustion components do not extend beyond the sides of the base, resulting in a more even weight distribution and easier storage and retrieval.

[0011] In some embodiments, when the telescopic rod and the moxibustion head are stored on both sides of the main frame, the projection of the moxibustion head overlaps with the projection of the base in the direction of gravity, and the projected area of ​​the base is larger than the projected area formed by the moxibustion head and the main frame together. Therefore, the moxibustion components do not extend beyond the sides of the base when stored, which helps save space and reduces the likelihood of interference.

[0012] In some embodiments, the storage slot includes a first slot and a second slot that are connected to each other. The telescopic rod abuts against the first slot, and the moxibustion head abuts against the second slot, thus confining the moxibustion component within the storage slot. Therefore, the first and second slots define the position of the moxibustion component, making it more securely stored and less prone to detachment.

[0013] In some embodiments, the moxibustion head is provided with a connecting rod, which is rotatably connected to the free end of the telescopic rod to drive the moxibustion head to rotate and adjust its position. This allows the moxibustion head to rotate and adjust its angle, improving its usability during use.

[0014] In some embodiments, the free end of the telescopic rod is provided with a spherical groove, and the connecting rod is provided with a ball head. The ball head is rotatably disposed in the spherical groove to drive the moxibustion head to rotate in multiple directions. Thus, the moxibustion head can rotate in multiple directions, further improving its usability and making it more adaptable to the patient's moxibustion position.

[0015] In some embodiments, the telescopic rod is provided with a vent hole, and the moxibustion head is provided with an exhaust hole. The vent hole and the exhaust hole are connected. The telescopic rod is provided with a driving device, which drives airflow to enter through the vent hole and exit through the exhaust hole. Thus, by controlling the driving device, the air intake of the moxibustion head can be controlled, thereby further regulating the temperature of the moxibustion.

[0016] In some embodiments, the free end of the telescopic rod is provided with a scale, and the connecting rod is provided with a mark. The rotation angle of the moxibustion head is marked by aligning the mark with the scale. Thus, by setting the scale and the mark, the patient's moxibustion angle can be quickly marked and identified, improving the convenience of the moxibustion head.

[0017] In some embodiments, the top of the main frame is provided with a handle; the bottom of the base is provided with a plurality of universal casters. This facilitates the transport and storage of the entire device and improves its operability.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, the multi-head constant temperature moxibustion therapy device of this invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] This application features multiple moxibustion components mounted on both sides of the main frame, meeting the patient's needs for the number of moxibustion sessions. The telescopic rod allows the moxibustion head to expand, facilitating patient adaptation to different usage positions. The rotatable telescopic rod on the main frame allows the moxibustion head to move closer to the frame, ensuring that the telescopic rod and moxibustion head fit snugly against the sides of the main frame during storage, thus saving overall space. This effectively saves storage space for the moxibustion components, facilitates base movement and removal, and makes the entire device easier to store, adapting to various usage scenarios.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0026] It should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0027] This utility model relates to a multi-head constant temperature moxibustion therapy device, which is suitable for both electronic and manual control. Electronic control offers greater automation, while manual control saves costs. This multi-head constant temperature moxibustion therapy device can meet the different treatment needs of patients.

[0028] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Figure 1 A multi-head constant-temperature moxibustion therapy device according to one embodiment of the present invention is schematically shown. The side pointing in the direction of gravity is designated as the lower side, and the opposite side as the upper side, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the multi-head constant temperature moxibustion therapy device includes a base 1 and a moxibustion component.

[0030] The base 1 supports other components; its shape is not limited, as long as it is simple and has a certain load-bearing capacity. Multiple universal pulley pairs 11 are evenly distributed on the bottom of the base 1 to facilitate the movement of the entire device. The universal pulley pairs 11 are preferably lockable universal pulleys for easy locking and fixed-point use. A main frame 2 is fixedly mounted on the base 1. In the electrically controlled implementation, the interior of the main frame 2 can serve as a support for the controller, circuit board, and other electrical components. The main frame 2 extends upwards and can have a rectangular structure. Optionally, multiple reinforcing ribs 12 are provided on the base 1, connecting the main frame 2 and the base 1 to enhance the support strength of the main frame 2, making it more robust. A handle 23 is provided on the top of the main frame 2 for medical personnel to hold and operate, facilitating pushing and pulling in conjunction with the universal pulley pairs 11.

[0031] like Figure 1As shown, the moxibustion component is applied to the patient. There are multiple moxibustion components. In this embodiment, there are four moxibustion components, which are evenly and symmetrically arranged on both sides (left and right) of the main frame 2. The moxibustion components are rotatably connected to the main frame 2. Specifically, the moxibustion component includes a moxibustion head 3 and a telescopic rod 4. The moxibustion head 3 can be an existing constant temperature moxibustion device, preferably a single cylindrical moxibustion cylinder, which can directly hold moxibustion materials such as moxa sticks, mugwort, and moxa wool. It can be used after heating and ignition. The telescopic rod 4 is specifically assembled from multiple sections of rods and can be stretched and extended. One end of the telescopic rod 4 is rotatably connected to the main frame 2, specifically through a damped (e.g., shaft hole, hinge, etc.) rotatable connection, so as to adjust the required angle of the telescopic rod 4. The other end (free end) of the telescopic rod 4 is connected to the moxibustion head 3, so that the telescopic rod 4 can extend the moxibustion head 3 along both sides of the main frame 2. Furthermore, the moxibustion head 3 is equipped with a connecting rod 31, which is rotatably connected to the free end of the telescopic rod 4, allowing the moxibustion head 3 to be rotated and adjusted to the desired moxibustion position. The length of the connecting rod 31 is less than that of the telescopic rod 4. Preferably, both the connecting rod 31 and the telescopic rod 4 are made of lightweight plastic or metal to reduce weight and make the entire device more balanced. Furthermore, the free end of the telescopic rod 4 is designed as a spherical structure, and a spherical groove 41 is provided at the free end of the telescopic rod 4. The end of the connecting rod 31 is provided with a ball head 32, the size of which is adapted to the size of the spherical groove 41. The ball head 32 and the spherical groove 41 can be damped and rotated in multiple directions. The ball head 32 and the spherical groove 41 are similar to a ball-and-socket joint or universal joint structure, allowing the moxibustion head 3 to rotate in multiple directions on the free end of the telescopic rod 4, so as to adjust the desired moxibustion position in multiple directions.

[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, storage slots 21 are provided on both sides (outer walls) of the main frame 2. The number of storage slots 21 is the same as the number of moxibustion components. The storage slots 21 adopt a groove structure. Preferably, one end of the telescopic rod 4 is rotatably set in the storage slot 21, so that the moxibustion components can be fully or partially accommodated in the storage slot 21 to save the storage space of the entire device. The storage slot 21 includes a first sub-slot 211 and a second sub-slot 212 that are connected. The first sub-slot 211 is rectangular and the second sub-slot 212 is circular. The size of the first sub-slot 211 and the second sub-slot 212 is adapted to the size of the moxibustion components. When the moxibustion components are stored in the storage slot 21, the telescopic rod 4 abuts against the first sub-slot 211 and the moxibustion head 3 abuts against the second sub-slot 212, so that the moxibustion components are confined within the storage slot 21. Therefore, when the moxibustion components are stored on both sides of the main frame 2, the moxibustion components are not easy to detach under force, making them more stable.

[0033] It can be seen that, as Figure 4As shown, in the direction of gravity, the projection of the main frame 2 completely overlaps with the projection of the base 1, meaning the main frame 2 is positioned at the center of the base 1, and the main frame 2 occupies relatively little space on both sides of the base 1. When the telescopic rod 4 and the moxibustion head 3 are stored on both sides of the main frame 2, in the direction of gravity, the projection of the moxibustion head 3 overlaps with the projection of the base 1, and the projected area of ​​the base 1 is larger than the projected area formed by the moxibustion head 3 and the main frame 2. Therefore, the load-bearing capacity of the main frame 2 and the moxibustion components on the base 1 is more concentrated, making the entire device more stable and less prone to tilting, avoiding a top-heavy situation. After the moxibustion components are stored, they are also less likely to interfere with or collide with external components.

[0034] In some embodiments, both the telescopic rod 4 and the connecting rod 31 are hollow. The telescopic rod 4 is provided with a vent 42, and the moxibustion head 3 is provided with an exhaust port 33. The exhaust ports 33 are distributed on the side of the moxibustion head 3. The vent 42 is connected to the exhaust port 33 through the telescopic rod 4 and the connecting rod 31, that is, the airflow can flow from the vent 42 to the exhaust port 33. A drive device (not shown) is provided inside the telescopic rod 4. The drive device is specifically composed of a motor and a fan blade, or a small fan can be used directly to drive the airflow. When the drive device is started, the airflow can enter from the vent 42 and exit from the exhaust port 33. The airflow rate can be adjusted by controlling the speed of the motor, thereby controlling the amount of air entering the moxibustion head 3, so as to further regulate and control the temperature of the moxibustion head 3.

[0035] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the free end of the telescopic rod 4 is equipped with a scale 43. The scale 43 can be set on the outside of the spherical structure at the free end of the telescopic rod 4. The scale 43 is a graduation with evenly spaced markings that can mark identifiable values. The connecting rod 31 is equipped with a mark 34, which can also be an easily identifiable engraving. The graduation values ​​of the mark 34 and the scale 43 can be aligned with each other. Optionally, a similar mark is also provided on the ball head 32 for easy alignment and observation. In use, the moxibustion head 3 can be rotated to the desired position, and the mark 34 and the scale 43 can be aligned to identify the specific rotation angle, which is convenient for medical staff to record and identify. The rotation angle of the moxibustion head 3 can be quickly adjusted when the patient uses it repeatedly.

[0036] In some optional embodiments, the moxibustion head 3 consists of a heating block, a heating circuit, etc. The moxibustion material is placed on the heating block of the moxibustion head, and the heating circuit generates heat. The moxibustion material acts on the human body through a combination of electrothermal and thermal effects. The moxibustion head 3 is equipped with a PLC controller and a temperature sensor to receive command signals from the control panel 22 or signals from the temperature sensor within the moxibustion head 3 itself, and to control the moxibustion head 3. The temperature sensor in the moxibustion head 3 can detect the user's skin temperature during moxibustion. When the temperature approaches or exceeds the set temperature, it sends a signal to the controller. The system sends a signal to adjust the amount of air entering the device to regulate the heat of the moxibustion, thereby cooling it down and maintaining a constant temperature to prevent burns from excessive heat and improve the safety of the treatment device. In addition, a control panel 22 is provided on the main unit frame 2. The control panel 22 is electrically connected to the PLC controller. Users can manually adjust the moxibustion head 3 and view necessary values ​​through the buttons on the control panel 22. A power socket can be provided on the main unit frame 2 for charging. The control panel 22 can be used to set the time for the moxibustion head 3. When the preset time is reached, the control panel 22 will give a voice prompt and turn off the moxibustion head 3.

[0037] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. To simplify the description, not all possible combinations of the various technical features in the above embodiments have been described, and this is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
