Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of moxibustion technology, and in particular to an auxiliary device for umbilical moxibustion. Background Technology

[0002] Zhuang medicine umbilical ring moxibustion therapy is a Zhuang medicine external treatment method that combines acupuncture and moxibustion. It is based on Zhuang medicine theory and uses the Zhuang medicine Yin-Yang acupuncture method to puncture the Zhuang medicine umbilical ring acupoints, and then applies ginger paste or moxa wool to the acupoints for moxibustion.

[0003] Umbilical moxibustion uses moxa wool, which is typically laid in a ring around the navel to form a ring. Another ring of moxa wool is then laid around the outside of the previous ring, allowing the burning moxa to stimulate acupoints such as Zhongwan, Guanyuan, and Daheng. Currently, the moxa wool ring is formed by hand, gathering it into a ring shape. After processing, the moxa wool is soft and fine like cotton. When forming the ring by hand, without specialized compaction tools, the moxa wool is quite fluffy, containing many pores, and often collapses after being gathered. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this application is to provide an auxiliary device for umbilical moxibustion, which can compress and shape the moxa wool ring used in umbilical moxibustion.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] Acupuncture aid for umbilical ring moxibustion, including a molding component and a pressing component;

[0007] The forming component includes a pressing mold. The pressing mold has a flange on its side and at least two cavities at the bottom for placing moxa wool. A pressure plate is provided in the cavity, and a pressure rod is connected to the top of the pressure plate. The pressure rod extends upward and can be movably passed through the top of the pressing mold.

[0008] The pressing component includes a handle that is snapped into place with a flange. The top of the left and right sides of the handle are respectively provided with telescopic rods that can move up and down. Springs are fitted on the telescopic rods, and pressing rods are provided on the top of the two telescopic rods.

[0009] The fluffy moxa wool is stuffed into the cavity of the pressing mold and compacted. The molded part is moved to the navel position of the human body by holding the handle. The pressing rod is pressed down, and the pressing rod moves the pressing plate downward. The compacted and ring-shaped moxa wool is released from the pressing mold.

[0010] In some embodiments, the pressing mold includes a top plate, and a plurality of concentrically distributed cylinders of different sizes are fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate, the space between the cylinders forming the cavity. The cavity is used to hold moxa wool.

[0011] To prevent the moxa wool from slipping out of the pressing mold, in some embodiments, the sidewall of the cylinder is provided with several protrusions.

[0012] In order to enable the pressure plate to move up and down within the cavity, in some embodiments, the side wall of the pressure plate is provided with a notch to avoid the protrusion.

[0013] In order to enable the grip to engage with the flange, in some embodiments, clamping blocks are provided at the bottom of the left and right ends of the grip, and the inner wall of the clamping blocks is provided with a snap-fit ​​interface that engages with the flange.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this application achieves at least the following beneficial effects: by using this umbilical ring moxibustion auxiliary device, the fluffy moxa wool is placed in the cavity of the pressing mold and quickly compacted. Compared with the moxa wool ring made by hand, the moxa wool ring made by this auxiliary device is more solid. After being squeezed out of the auxiliary device, the moxa wool ring collapses less. Furthermore, because the pores of the compacted moxibustion ring are small, the area in contact with air is reduced, which can also prolong the burning time of the moxa wool.

However, it should be understood that the present application may be implemented in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. These embodiments are provided herein to make the disclosure of the present application more complete and to fully convey the concept of the present application to those skilled in the art.

[0025] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the tendency for loose moxa wool to collapse and burn too quickly when applied around the navel, the inventors, after careful analysis, discovered that these problems primarily stem from the fact that the human abdomen is generally curved, with obese individuals exhibiting a more pronounced bulge. Processed moxa wool is relatively fluffy, and when directly applied by hand to the abdomen, the downward slope of the sides causes the loose moxa wool to form a ring around the navel. The abdominal movement during respiration, combined with the fluffiness, can cause the moxa wool to collapse and fall off the sides of the abdomen. Furthermore, the numerous pores in the fluffy moxa wool increase the surface area exposed to air, potentially leading to excessively rapid burning. Based on these analyses, the inventors designed an auxiliary device for navel ring moxibustion.

[0026] like Figure 1-6 As shown, in at least one embodiment of the umbilical moxibustion aid device of this application, it includes a molding component for pressing moxa wool into a ring and a pressing component for assisting in squeezing the moxa wool onto the abdomen.

[0027] The molding component includes a pressing mold with an open bottom. The pressing mold can be made of plastic. The pressing mold has a flange on its side. The bottom of the pressing mold has at least two annular cavities for placing moxa wool. An annular pressure plate 15 is provided in the cavity. A pressure rod 2 is connected to the top of the pressure plate 15. A through hole is provided at the top of the pressing mold. The pressure rod 2 extends upward and can be movably passed through the through hole at the top of the pressing mold. The pressure plate 15 and the pressure rod 2 are preferably made of metal.

[0028] The pressing component includes a handle 3 that is snapped into place with a flange. Through holes are provided on the top of both the left and right sides of the handle 3, and telescopic rods 5 that can move up and down are installed in the through holes. Springs 6 are fitted onto the telescopic rods 5, which are located at the top of the handle 3. Pressing rods 4 are welded to the top of the two telescopic rods 5. To prevent the telescopic rods 5 from slipping upwards, a flange 51 is provided at the bottom of the telescopic rods 5.

[0029] The pressing mold is used to hold fluffy moxa wool. It includes a circular top plate 1, and several concentrically distributed cylinders of different sizes are fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate 1. Specifically, these include a first cylinder 8, a second cylinder 10, a third cylinder 13, and a fourth cylinder 14. The first cylinder 8 has the largest diameter, followed by the second and third cylinders 10 and 13, and the fourth cylinder 14 has the smallest diameter. The diameter of the top plate 1 is larger than that of the first cylinder 8. When the first cylinder 8 and the top plate 1 are fixedly connected, the outer edge of the top plate 1 will protrude, which is the flange. The second cylinder 10 is located inside the first cylinder 8, the third cylinder 13 is located inside the second cylinder 10, and the fourth cylinder 14 is located inside the third cylinder 13. The first cylinder 8 to the fourth cylinder 14 are concentrically distributed with certain intervals, which are the aforementioned cavities. An observation hole 11, with the same inner diameter as the fourth cylinder 14, is provided in the middle of the top plate 1. This observation hole 11 is used to observe whether the pressing mold is basically concentric with the navel, so that the moxa wool rings can be placed on the abdomen of the human body, reducing the possibility of misalignment.

[0030] refer to Figure 2 The inner wall of the first cylinder 8, the outer and inner walls of the second cylinder 10 and the third cylinder 13, and the upper and lower parts of the outer wall of the fourth cylinder 14 are each provided with a number of protrusions 9. The protrusions 9 can be hemispherical or spike-shaped. Considering that if the sidewalls of the first cylinder 8 to the fourth cylinder 14 that are in contact with the moxa wool are smooth surfaces, the moxa wool may slip out of the cavity during the process of transferring the pressing mold from the position of the pre-made moxa wool ring to the position of the human navel, the protrusions 9 are added. A part of the moxa wool will hang on these protrusions 9, increasing the friction and preventing the moxa wool from slipping out of the cavity.

[0031] The pressure plate 15 is located above the protrusion 9 in the upper middle part. The side wall of the pressure plate 15 is provided with a notch 151 to avoid the protrusion 9, so that the pressure plate 15 can move up and down smoothly from the cavity of the pressing mold.

[0032] To prevent the pressure plate 15 from falling out of the cavity, the top plate 1 above the cavity has an arc-shaped adjustment groove for the pressure rod 2 to pass through. After the pressure rod 2 extends out of the adjustment groove, it can move circumferentially. Each cavity has two pressure rods symmetrically arranged on the top of the pressure plate 15. Correspondingly, an equal number of arc-shaped adjustment grooves for the pressure rods 2 to pass through are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the top of the top plate 1. Moving the pressure rod 2 counterclockwise causes the pressure plate 15 to rotate counterclockwise, misaligning the notch 151 and protrusion 9 on the pressure plate 15. The edge of the pressure plate 15 is restricted from contacting the protrusion 9, preventing it from moving downwards from the cavity. Moving the pressure rod 2 clockwise causes the pressure plate 15 to rotate clockwise, aligning the notch 151 and protrusion 9 on the pressure plate 15, allowing the pressure plate 15 to move downwards.

[0033] like Figure 6 As shown, the bottom of the left and right ends of the grip 3 are respectively provided with downwardly extending clamping blocks 7, and the inner wall of the clamping block 7 is provided with a locking interface 71 that engages with the flange. The height of the locking interface 71 is greater than the thickness of the flange, wherein, as shown... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, hemispheres 12 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the bottom of the flange, and hemispherical recesses 72 matching the hemispheres 12 are opened at the bottom of the clamping interface 71. The function of the hemispheres 12 and the hemispherical recesses 72 is to prevent the pressing mold from being dislodged from the clamping interface 71 of the clamping block 7. When installing the pressing mold on the handle 3, first insert the flange without the hemispheres 12 into the clamping interface 71, and then rotate the handle 3 or the pressing mold to deform the plastic hemispheres 12 under pressure and insert them into the hemispherical recesses 72 of the clamping interface 71, thus completing the limiting installation. As long as no force is applied to make the hemispheres 12 leave the hemispherical recesses 72, the pressing mold can be fixedly clamped into the clamping interfaces 71 of the clamping blocks 7 on the left and right sides of the handle 3.

[0034] The through holes on the left and right sides of the grip 3 extend downward through the clamping block 7, and the telescopic rod 5 is movably placed in the through holes on the left and right sides of the grip 3.

[0035] Continue to refer to Figure 6 The handle 3 has several arc-shaped clearance grooves 31 at its front and rear ends. The clearance grooves 31 match the adjustment grooves on the top plate 1. When the pressure rod 2 moves clockwise, it enters the clearance groove 31, and when it moves counterclockwise, it moves out of the clearance groove 31.

[0036] The metal pressing rod 4 is a long rectangular structure with a certain thickness. A groove is formed at its bottom, within which a long, rectangular magnetic plate 16 is attached. The function of the magnetic plate 16 is that when the pressing rod 2 moves clockwise into the clearance groove 31, the pressing rod 4 needs to press down on the pressing rod 2, causing the pressure plate 15 to expel the moxa wool from the cavity of the pressing mold. The magnetic plate 16 contacts the top of the pressing rod 2 and is attracted by magnetic force. After the pressing rod 4 is released, the spring 6 pushes the pressure plate 15 upwards, and the pressing rod 2 moves upwards to reset due to the attraction of the magnetic plate 16, saving time in resetting the pressure plate 15.

[0037] In order to increase the contact area between the pressure rod 2 and the magnet plate 16, a protruding edge 21 with a diameter larger than that of the pressure rod 2 is provided at the top of the pressure rod 2. After increasing the contact area, the adsorption force is also increased, which can reduce the separation of the pressure rod 2 and the magnet plate 16 during the reset process.

[0038] Instructions for using the umbilical moxibustion aid:

[0039] Step 1: As described above, first connect and fix the pressing mold and the pressing component by snapping them together with the flange and the clamping block 7.

[0040] Step 2: Select two suitable cavities between the first cylinder 8 and the fourth cylinder 14 of the pressing mold and stuff them with fluffy moxa wool. Then, hold the handle 3 and place the bottom of the pressing mold in contact with any tabletop. Adjust the pressure plate 15 inside the two selected cavities to move clockwise through the pressure rod 2 into the clearance groove 31 of the handle 3. Press the pressing rod 4 (during the pressing of the pressing rod 4, the telescopic rod 5 moves downward and the spring 6 is compressed by the pressing rod 4). Press the pressing rod 4 downward and push the pressure rod 2 to drive the pressure plate 15 to quickly squeeze the moxa wool into shape. Release the pressing rod 4. The spring 6 is no longer compressed and pushes the pressing rod 4 upward. The magnetic strip at the bottom of the pressing rod 4 attracts the top of the pressure rod 2, causing the pressure rod 2 and the pressure plate 15 to move upward and reset.

[0041] Step 3: After the volume of the moxa wool in the cavity is reduced due to compression, you can continue to stuff moxa wool into the opening of the cavity and repeat the operation of Step 2 until the compacted moxa wool fills the cavity or fills two-thirds of it.

[0042] Step four: Using the handle 3, move the umbilical moxibustion aid to the upper part of the abdomen. After placing a partition on the abdomen, place the pressing mold on the partition and press the pressing rod 4. At the same time, grip the handle 3 with your fingers to move the pressing mold upwards. As the pressing plate 15 moves downwards, the ring-shaped moxa wool ring is pressed out of the cavity and falls onto the partition, completing the pressing and arrangement of the moxa wool. Release the pressing rod 4. The spring 6 is no longer compressed and pushes the pressing rod 4 upwards. The magnetic strip at the bottom of the pressing rod 4 attracts the top of the pressing rod 2, causing the pressing rod 2 and the pressing plate 15 to move upwards and reset. Finally, rotate the pressing rod 2 on the pressing plate 15 in the two selected cavities counterclockwise so that the pressing rod 2 leaves the relief groove 31 of the handle 3. At this time, the notch 151 and the protrusion 9 on the pressing plate 15 are misaligned. Due to the restriction of the protrusion 9, the pressing plate 15 will not move downwards from the cavity.

[0043] The purpose of designing the pressing mold and the handle 3 as a detachable snap-fit ​​connection is that the diameter of the first cylinder 8 to the fourth cylinder 14 at the bottom of the pressing mold can be designed according to the requirements, so that pressing molds of different sizes can be designed. This allows for the replacement of pressing molds of different sizes according to people of different body types, resulting in a higher degree of matching between the pressed moxibustion ring and the human body.

[0044] It should be understood that all the above embodiments are exemplary and not restrictive. Various modifications or variations made by those skilled in the art to the specific embodiments described above under the concept of this application should be within the protection scope of this application.
