Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of auxiliary technology of traditional Chinese medicine cupping, specifically to a device for cleaning the inner wall of a traditional Chinese medicine cupping jar. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine cupping therapy artificially induces capillary rupture and blood stasis through physical stimulation and negative pressure, mobilizing the body's repair functions and the absorption of necrotic blood cells. This promotes blood circulation, invigorates vital energy, regulates qi and blood, and enhances and regulates the body's immunity. Cupping includes fire cupping and negative pressure cupping. In fire cupping, an alcohol-soaked cotton ball is held with tweezers, lit, and placed into the cup, which is then quickly placed on the area to be treated. Negative pressure cupping uses a negative pressure structure to extract air from the cup. Regardless of the method, a negative pressure is created inside the cup to stimulate the skin. However, in practice, due to the combined effect of the body's secreted oils and the negative pressure, the inner wall of the cup often becomes coated with oil after use. Additionally, some cotton fibers and lubricating oils used in the procedure adhere to the body's secreted oils, making them difficult to clean.
[0003] In summary, the following technical problems exist in the cleaning process after cupping in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM): Due to the concave structure of the cups and their small openings, it is difficult for medical staff to thoroughly clean them with their hands. Furthermore, the length of the cups prevents staff from cleaning the bottom of the inner wall. In clinical practice, individual patient differences and variations in metabolic secretion levels result in some cups having a significant amount of oil inside after cupping, making medical staff resistant to cleaning the inner wall. Combined with the cup structure, which makes vigorous scrubbing difficult, cleaning the cups after TCM cupping becomes a problem. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides a cleaning device for the inner wall of a traditional Chinese medicine cupping jar. Through a transmission structure, when the component contacts the bottom of the inner wall of the jar, it simultaneously contacts the side wall of the jar. With the help of a cleaning cloth containing a cleaning agent, the inner wall of the jar is covered, thus achieving the effect of entering the jar and applying force to the bottom and sides of the jar.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives and effects, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:
[0006] A device for cleaning the inner wall of a cupping jar in traditional Chinese medicine includes a base, a pressing part, and a clamping part. The pressing part is located on the upper side of the base and includes a pressure plate and a transmission assembly. The transmission assembly is located on the lower side of the pressure plate. The clamping part is located in the middle of the base and includes a middle component and a side component. The middle component includes an upper plate, and the side component includes an elastic arc frame and a connecting piece. The connecting piece and the transmission assembly cooperate to allow the elastic arc frame to move laterally.
[0007] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes a slant frame with a slanted surface structure on its lower side, a compression spring fixedly connected between the pressure plate and the base, and the slant frame slidably connected within the base.
[0008] Furthermore, the connector includes a side rod, an upper rod, and a sliding rod. The base has side rods on both sides of the middle component. The upper rod is fixedly connected to the upper end of the side rod. The upper rod extends away from the middle component. An elastic arc frame is fixedly connected to the upper rod. The sliding rod is fixedly connected to the lower end of the side rod. A tension spring is fixedly connected between the two side rods.
[0009] The side rod is slidably connected inside the base, and the inclined surface structure of the inclined frame faces the center of the base. The inclined surface structure of one side of the inclined frame abuts against the side rod on the opposite side.
[0010] Furthermore, the slide bars of the side rods on both sides are staggered.
[0011] Furthermore, the elastic arc frame is made of an elastic material, which is compatible with the side wall curvature of different types of tanks.
[0012] Furthermore, the middle component also includes a middle rod and a spring. The middle rod is fixedly connected to the lower side of the upper plate, and the lower end of the middle rod is fixedly connected to the base with a spring, which is adapted to the inner wall height of tanks of different specifications and the ratio of height to side wall of tanks.
[0013] Furthermore, a fixed seat is fixedly connected to the base, the pressure plate is slidably connected to the outside of the fixed seat, the central rod is longitudinally slidably connected to the middle of the fixed seat, and the fixed seat serves to constrain the movement direction of the central rod. The side rods are laterally slidably connected to both sides of the fixed seat, and the fixed seat serves to constrain the movement direction of the side rods.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] A device for cleaning the inner wall of a traditional Chinese medicine cupping jar is disclosed. In use, a cleaning cloth is first rinsed with water containing detergent. Then, the cleaning cloth is placed over the upper plate and draped over the elastic arc frames on both sides. The cupping jar is then inverted to cover the clamping part, with the bottom of the inner wall of the jar pressing against the upper plate. Simultaneously, the jar opening presses down against the pressure plate, causing the inclined frame to push the sliding rod on the opposite side. This causes the elastic arc frames on both sides to press against the inner side walls of the jar. Rotating the jar allows the cleaning cloth on the clamping part to clean the inner wall. This device avoids the problem of medical staff being unable to reach the inner wall due to the size of the jar and also addresses the issue of medical staff being reluctant to handle the grease on the inner wall of the jar.
[0016] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description
