Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of moxa stick fire extinguishing technology, and in particular to a moxa stick fire extinguishing device. Background Technology
[0002] Moxibustion therapy is widely used in clinical and health care fields of traditional Chinese medicine, but there are still many problems with the fire extinguishing of moxa sticks after use. At present, the main methods for extinguishing moxa sticks are water immersion and burial. Water immersion usually involves immersing the burning end of the moxa stick in water, but this will completely waste the moxa stick and make it impossible to reuse it. Burial involves inserting the burning moxa stick into sand and extinguishing the fire by burying it to isolate it from the air.
[0003] However, sand needs to completely cover the burning end to effectively isolate it from the air. Shallow burial may result in incomplete extinguishing. Therefore, when extinguishing moxa sticks by burying them, it is necessary to forcefully insert the moxa sticks into the deeper layers of sand. However, the resistance of the sand particles may cause the moxa sticks to break, affecting the effectiveness of secondary use.
[0004] Based on the above situation, we propose an moxa stick fire extinguishing device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model provides an extinguishing device for moxa sticks to solve the aforementioned technical problems.
[0006] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: including a container, a storage column, and a linkage mechanism. The container has a fire extinguishing box containing sand slidably connected inside. The storage column is hollow with openings at both ends. Two opposing push-opening parts are hinged to the bottom of the storage column. When the opposing sides of the two push-opening parts are in contact, the bottom of the storage column is sealed. The linkage mechanism is located inside the storage column and is used to drive the two push-opening parts to unfold and push the sand to the outside of the storage column, so that the burning end of the moxa stick falls into the storage column and is buried by sand.
[0007] Furthermore, the linkage mechanism includes an adjusting ring threaded into the inner wall of the storage column and an adjusting rod rotatably connected to the bottom of the adjusting ring. The adjusting rod is slidably connected to the interior of the storage column, and a rack is connected to the bottom end of the adjusting rod. A gear that meshes with the rack is provided on the hinge shaft between the disengaging component and the storage column.
[0008] Furthermore, both of the aforementioned push-opening components are provided with a pointed portion, and the pointed portion faces downward.
[0009] Furthermore, the container is equipped with a storage rack inside, which has multiple insertion interfaces for inserting storage columns. Each storage column is connected to a first magnetic ring, and the insertion interface is surrounded by a second magnetic ring that attracts the first magnetic ring.
[0010] Furthermore, when the first magnetic ring and the second magnetic ring attract each other, the storage column drives the disengaging component to insert into the sand to a depth less than the radial length of the disengaging component.
[0011] Furthermore, it includes a pick-up piece for connecting moxa sticks, the pick-up piece including an end seat and a connecting wire located at the lower end of the end seat, and the connecting wire is provided with barbs.
[0012] The above-mentioned technical solutions adopted in the embodiments of this utility model can achieve the following beneficial effects:
[0013] In this invention, a linkage mechanism drives the opening component to unfold, which can push the sand in the fire extinguishing box to both sides, allowing the moxa sticks in the storage column to fall into the opened sand pit. At the same time, the surrounding sand buries the burning end of the moxa sticks in the sand pit, thus extinguishing the fire and avoiding the problem of moxa stick breakage caused by forced insertion, thereby protecting the structural integrity of the moxa sticks.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0024] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] This utility model provides a moxa stick fire extinguishing device, including a container box 1, with a fire extinguishing box 11 slidably connected inside the container box 1. The fire extinguishing box 11 can hold a certain amount of sand. It also includes a storage column 2, which is hollow with openings at both ends. Two opposing opening pieces 3 are hinged to the bottom of the storage column 2. When the opposing surfaces of the two opening pieces 3 are in contact, the bottom of the storage column 2 can be sealed. In use, the burning end of the moxa stick can be facing down. At this time, since the opening pieces 3 seal the storage column 2, the moxa stick inside the storage column 2 will not fall out. Furthermore, there is a linkage mechanism inside the storage column 2 for driving the two opening pieces 3 to unfold and push the sand to the outside of the storage column 2. This allows the sand to bury the burning end of the moxa stick after it falls out of the storage column 2, eliminating the need to forcefully insert the moxa stick into the sand to bury the burning end of the moxa stick and extinguish the fire, thus avoiding breakage caused by inserting the moxa stick.
[0026] For details, please refer to Figure 5 as well as Figure 6As shown, the linkage mechanism includes an adjusting ring 4 threaded into the inner wall of the storage column 2 and an adjusting rod 41 rotatably connected to the bottom of the adjusting ring 4. The adjusting rod 41 is slidably connected to the inside of the storage column 2. When the adjusting ring 4 rotates downward along the storage column 2, it can drive the adjusting rod 41 to slide downward; conversely, it can drive the adjusting rod 41 to slide upward. A rack 42 is connected to the bottom end of the adjusting rod 41. A gear 43 that meshes with the rack 42 is connected to the hinge shaft between the disengaging part 3 and the storage column 2. When the adjusting rod 41 drives the rack 42 to move downward synchronously, it will drive the gear 43 to rotate through the rack 42. At this time, the gear 43 drives the hinge shaft and... Rotating the opening component 3 unfolds it. After the storage column 2 drives the closed opening component 3 into the sand inside the fire extinguishing box 11, opening the opening component 3 again will cause it to push the sand on both sides to the sides. At this time, the sand layer will be pushed open to form a groove. At the same time, the moxa stick in the storage column 2 will fall off under its own gravity. When the two opening components 3 are unfolded, some sand will enter from the gap between the two adjacent opening components 3 as the moxa stick falls off, burying the burning end of the moxa stick and achieving the purpose of extinguishing the fire. In addition, the storage column 2 and the opening component 3 can be made of fireproof and heat-resistant materials such as metal to prevent the burning end of the moxa stick from burning the opening component 3.
[0027] Furthermore, the opening piece 3 is provided with a downward-pointing tip 31, which makes it easier to insert the storage column 2 into the sand when it is inserted into the sand.
[0028] Further reference Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the interior of the container 1 is also equipped with a storage rack 5. The storage rack 5 has multiple insertion interfaces 51 for inserting storage columns 2. A first magnetic ring 52 is connected to the storage column 2. A second magnetic ring 53, which attracts the first magnetic ring 52, is located around the insertion interface 51. When extinguishing a fire with an moxa stick, the moxa stick can be placed inside the storage column 2 first, and then the storage column 2 can be inserted into the fire extinguishing box 11 through the insertion interface 51. At this time, the first magnetic ring 52 and the second magnetic ring 53 attract each other, thus... The storage column 2 is inserted vertically into the sand. At the same time, when the first magnetic ring 52 and the second magnetic ring 53 attract each other, the insertion depth of the disengaging component 3 into the sand can be limited. The storage column 2 drives the disengaging component 3 to be inserted into the sand to a depth less than the radial length of the disengaging component 3. This avoids the sand from entering the meshing point of the gear 43 and the rack 42 due to excessive insertion depth, which would affect the transmission effect. It also avoids the phenomenon that the sand's resistance to the disengaging component 3 is too great and it cannot be unfolded due to excessive insertion depth.
[0029] Further reference Figure 3As shown, it also includes a pick-up piece 6 for connecting moxa sticks. The pick-up piece 6 includes an end seat 61 and a connecting wire 62 located at the lower end of the end seat 61. The connecting wire 62 is provided with barbs 63. When placing moxa sticks into the storage column 2, in order to avoid some moxa sticks being difficult to remove because their length is less than the length of the storage column 2, the upper end of the moxa stick can be inserted through the connecting wire 62 before the moxa stick is placed into the storage column 2. The barbs 63 further improve the fixing effect of the moxa stick. The length of the pick-up piece 6 is greater than the axial length of the storage column 2. When taking out the moxa stick after it has been extinguished, it can be taken out through the pick-up piece 6.
[0030] Furthermore, it should be noted that when removing the storage column 2, in order to prevent the two opening pieces 3 from closing and trapping some sand into the storage column 2, the opening pieces 3 can be moved out of the sand when the storage column 2 is moved upwards first, and then the adjusting ring 4 can be rotated in the opposite direction to drive the opening pieces 3 to close, and then it can be used again when it is inserted into the sand.
[0031] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
