Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of physiotherapy instrument technology, and in particular to a headgear structure that integrates heat therapy and moxibustion. Background Technology
[0002] Moxibustion, a characteristic therapy of traditional Chinese medicine, uses the heat stimulation and medicinal effects produced by burning moxa wool to warm the meridians, promote blood circulation, and invigorate qi. Modern thermotherapy equipment mainly includes physical therapy equipment such as infrared physiotherapy instruments, microwave thermotherapy machines, and ultrasonic therapy instruments.
[0003] Traditional moxibustion and thermotherapy equipment suffers from problems such as dispersed heat, inconvenient operation, safety hazards, and limited functionality. For example, ordinary moxibustion boxes have low heat utilization rates, require manual adjustment, and the open flame and ash can easily cause burns; while electric thermotherapy devices lack the medicinal effects of moxa and are difficult to conform to the body's curves. The market urgently needs an integrated device that combines the deep penetration of thermotherapy with the pharmacological effects of moxibustion, while also being safe and convenient.
[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, this invention proposes a headgear structure that integrates thermotherapy and moxibustion. By concentrating heat energy through a heat-concentrating cover, precisely positioning the moxa stick through a multi-guided hopper, optimizing exhaust gas emissions through a dust outlet, and being compatible with an external adjustment mechanism, it achieves efficient, safe, and adaptive therapeutic effects, meeting the needs of families and clinics for intelligent thermotherapy. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art by providing a headgear structure that integrates heat therapy and moxibustion, thus combining the functions of heat therapy and moxibustion into one.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a head cover structure integrating heat therapy and moxibustion, including an outer shell and a head cover body disposed inside the outer shell. An outer mesh is provided on the outer side of the outer shell. A guide hopper for connecting the two sides of the outer mesh is integrally fixed on the outer mesh. The middle of the outer mesh is concave downward and a material collection port is provided at the concave part. The guide hopper is located above the head cover body. A clamping component is provided on the head cover body. The moxa stick passes through the guide hopper or the material collection port through the outer mesh and is clamped by the clamping component. A heat-gathering cover is provided on the outer side of the main body of the headgear. The heat-gathering cover has a bowl-shaped recessed structure. The heat-gathering cover is located inside the outer shell and there are leakage cavities between them. An external device for driving the headgear to move is provided at the bottom of the outer shell.
[0007] The above-mentioned technical solution integrates the two major functions of heat therapy and moxibustion into one cover. The bowl-shaped concave heat-concentrating cover can reflect and focus the heat energy generated by the burning moxa stick on the target area, enhancing the penetration of heat therapy. It also has a built-in electromagnetic wave heating device, which uses the heat-concentrating cover to focus electromagnetic waves to form directional linear heat rays for heating. The double-layer structure design of the outer mesh and the outer shell can isolate the burning moxa stick from the skin and prevent direct contact that could cause burns. The bottom of the outer shell can be connected to external devices, such as robotic arms or supports, to achieve automated or semi-automated operation and freely adjust the focusing position of the head cover to provide more precise physiotherapy effects for the human body.
[0008] A further feature of this invention is that the clamping assembly includes two symmetrically arranged clamping mouths, which are rotatably connected to the head cover body via rotating shafts. Each rotating shaft is provided with an opening coil spring for squeezing the corresponding clamping mouth to put it in a clamped state.
[0009] With the above-mentioned further design, when no moxa stick is inserted, the spring force of the opening spring keeps the clamping mouth open, making it convenient for users to quickly insert the moxa stick; when inserting the moxa stick, the clamping mouth is subjected to pressure and rotates inward, and the spring provides a reverse spring force, so that the clamping mouth automatically fits the surface of the moxa stick, ensuring a stable clamping and preventing loosening or falling off; after the moxa stick is removed, the spring automatically resets, and the clamping mouth reopens, without the need for manual adjustment, improving the convenience of operation.
[0010] A further feature of this invention is that multiple guide buckets can be provided, each guide bucket being symmetrically distributed around the center of the material outlet, and each guide bucket and the material outlet having a corresponding clamping component.
[0011] With the above-mentioned further design, the multiple guide buckets allow multiple sets of moxa sticks to be inserted into the headgear simultaneously. When multiple moxa sticks burn, the heat is more concentrated and even, making it suitable for areas requiring strong heat therapy. The guide buckets are symmetrically arranged around the center of the material collection port, so that the burning moxa sticks are distributed in a ring or radial pattern, and the heat converges towards the center, avoiding overheating or uneven temperature on one side. The material collection port, as a supplement to the central heat source, can insert an additional moxa stick to further enhance the heat penetration of the core area.
[0012] A further improvement of this invention is that the outer shell is provided with a dust discharge port for connecting the outside world and the leakage cavity.
[0013] With the above-mentioned further setup, after each appropriate course of moxibustion, the residue or the end of the moxa stick can be collected through the dust outlet to prevent the ash from burning customers and to keep the site clean. At the same time, it can also remove the gases produced by combustion to avoid excessive smoky fumes that are choking people.
[0014] A further improvement of this invention is that the base of the outer shell is a circular tubular structure, and the heat-concentrating cover and the head cover body are both connected to the inside of the outer shell base through support columns.
[0015] With the above-mentioned further design, the design of the outer shell base can fix the heat-concentrating hood and the main body of the head cover, and the circular tubular design can be designed with rings and other structures on the outside to connect the outer shell and the external device to realize the overall movement.
[0016] A further improvement of this invention is that the guide bucket has holes evenly distributed on its wall surface.
[0017] With the above-mentioned further design, during use, the design of the holes allows the moxa stick inside the guide hopper to come into more full contact with heat, so that the moxa stick can burn completely. Furthermore, the debris from the moxa stick or the end of the moxa stick can be collected to prevent the ash from burning customers, keep the place clean, and avoid the phenomenon of excessive moxa smoke causing choking.
[0018] A further improvement of this invention is that the guide hopper has a conical funnel structure.
[0019] With the above-mentioned further design, the guide bucket is designed in the shape of a funnel, which is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. This makes it easy for users to quickly and easily align and insert the moxa stick. Even with one-handed operation, it can be inserted accurately, avoiding repeated adjustments. The bottom gradually narrows, which allows the moxa stick to be naturally guided to the clamping component, ensuring that it enters the preset position stably and preventing deviation or jamming.

[0022] The technical solutions in this embodiment 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, and 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.
[0023] It should be noted that in the description of this utility model, all directional indicators (such as up, down, forward, backward, etc.) are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.
[0024] Furthermore, in this utility model, the use of terms such as "first," "second," etc., is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. In the description of this utility model, "a number" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0025] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a headgear structure integrating heat therapy and moxibustion includes an outer shell 10 and a headgear body 1 disposed inside the outer shell 10. An outer mesh 2 is provided on the outer side of the outer shell 10. A guide hopper 3 for connecting the two sides of the outer mesh 2 is integrally fixed on the outer mesh 2. The middle of the outer mesh 2 is concave downward, and a material collection port 11 is provided at the concave part. The guide hopper 3 is located above the headgear body 1. A clamping component is provided on the headgear body 1. The moxa stick passes through the guide hopper 3 or the material collection port 11 through the outer mesh 2 and is clamped by the clamping component. The clamping assembly includes two symmetrically arranged clamping nozzles 5. The clamping nozzles 5 are rotatably connected to the head cover body 1 via a rotating shaft. The two clamping nozzles 5 are used to clamp the moxa stick. Each rotating shaft is provided with an opening spring 9 for squeezing the corresponding clamping nozzle 5 to put it in a clamped state. The clamping nozzle 5 has a shell structure. The opening spring 9 is located on the back of the shell, and one pin of the opening spring 9 abuts against the lower end of the back of the shell of the clamping nozzle 5, so that the bottoms of the two symmetrically arranged clamping nozzles 5 move towards the middle, realizing that the two clamping nozzles 5 are in a normally open clamped state.
[0026] Therefore, when the moxa stick is not inserted, the spring force of the opening spring 9 keeps the clamping mouth 5 in a normally open state with a clamp, but there is a gap between the two clamping mouths 5 of the same clamping component, which allows the user to quickly insert the moxa stick; when the moxa stick is inserted, the clamping mouth 5 is subjected to pressure and rotates inward, and the opening spring 9 provides a reverse spring force, so that the clamping mouth 5 always fits against the surface of the moxa stick, ensuring a stable clamp and preventing loosening or falling off; after the moxa stick is removed, the opening spring 9 squeezes the clamping mouth 5 to the normally open position, without the need for manual adjustment, improving the convenience of operation.
[0027] Furthermore, each guide bucket 3 has a conical funnel structure. The guide bucket 3 is designed to be a funnel shape that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, which makes it easy for users to quickly and easily align and insert the moxa stick. Even with one-handed operation, it can be inserted accurately, avoiding repeated adjustments. The bottom gradually narrows, which allows the moxa stick to be naturally guided to the clamping component, ensuring that it enters the preset position stably and preventing deviation or jamming.
[0028] Furthermore, multiple guide buckets 3 can be provided. In this embodiment, three guide buckets 3 are provided, each guide bucket 3 is symmetrically distributed around the center of the material outlet 11. Each guide bucket 3 and the material outlet 11 has a corresponding clamping component. Specifically, the design of multiple guide buckets 3 allows multiple sets of moxa sticks to be inserted into the head cover at the same time. When multiple moxa sticks burn, the heat is more concentrated and more uniform, which is suitable for areas that require strong heat therapy. The guide buckets 3 are symmetrically arranged around the center of the material outlet 11, so that the burning moxa sticks are distributed in a ring or radial shape, and the heat converges towards the center, avoiding overheating or uneven temperature on one side. The material outlet 11 serves as a supplement to the central heat source, and an additional moxa stick can be inserted to further enhance the heat penetration of the core area.
[0029] The guide hopper 3 has holes 4 evenly arranged on its wall surface. The design of the holes 4 allows the moxa sticks inside the guide hopper to come into more full contact with heat, so that the moxa sticks can burn completely. The holes 4 can also be used to collect the moxa stick residue or the end of the moxa stick, so as to avoid burning customers with ash and keep the place clean, and to avoid the phenomenon of excessive moxa smoke causing choking.
[0030] A heat-gathering cover 6 is provided on the outer side of the head cover body 1. The heat-gathering cover 6 has a bowl-shaped recessed structure. The heat-gathering cover 6 is located inside the outer shell 10 and has a leakage cavity 7 between it. It should be noted that the heat-gathering cover 6 has an opening below the clamping component for the residue of the moxa stick to pass through. During the burning of the moxa stick, the ash produced by the burning falls into the leakage cavity 7 for collection. After the moxa stick has finished burning or is about to finish burning, the user can use a tool to push the moxa stick residue still clamped on the clamping component into the leakage cavity 7. The user does not need to clamp the residual moxa stick outward, making the operation simpler.
[0031] The outer shell 10 may be provided with a dust exhaust port 8 for connecting the outside and the leakage cavity 7. After each appropriate course of moxibustion, the user pushes the residual part of the burning moxa stick into the leakage cavity 7, and the moxa residue or the end of the moxa stick can be collected through the dust exhaust port 8. The dust exhaust port 8 can be connected to a vacuum cleaner or other collector through a pipe, or connected to a water tank, to collect the products of the burning moxa stick, avoid the ash from flying and burning customers and keep the place clean. At the same time, it can also remove the gas produced by combustion to avoid the phenomenon of excessive moxa smoke choking on site.
[0032] Furthermore, the outer shell 10 is a shell structure with its base part protruding inward and the whole being a circular tubular structure. A support column can be fixedly installed on the top of its protruding part for inserting the heat-concentrating cover 6 and the head cover body 1 to fix it. The circular tubular design allows for the design of rings or other structures on the outside to connect the outer shell 10 and external devices to achieve the overall movement.
[0033] Specifically, the two major functions of heat therapy and moxibustion are integrated into one cover. The bowl-shaped concave heat-concentrating cover 6 can reflect and focus the heat energy generated by the burning moxa stick on the target area, enhancing the penetration of heat therapy. It also has a built-in electromagnetic wave heating device. The heat-concentrating cover 6 focuses the electromagnetic waves to form directional linear heat rays for heating. The double-layer structure design of the outer mesh and the outer shell can isolate the burning moxa stick from the skin to prevent direct contact and burns. The bottom of the outer shell can be connected to external devices, such as robotic arms or supports, to achieve automated or semi-automated operation. The focusing position of the head cover can be freely adjusted to provide a more precise massage effect for the human body. Example
[0034] In this embodiment, the external device is a massage chair with a robotic arm. The robotic arm 12 can grip the base portion connected to the outer casing 10, such as... Figure 8 As shown, the robotic arm has 12 independently movable joints, each equipped with an independently driven motor. This allows the headgear to reach and adapt to various complex spatial positions. The robotic arm's movements can be controlled by programming. Programming and debugging can be performed through offline programming, pre-planning paths in computer software, and online teaching (operator manually guides and records the trajectory). This greatly enhances its adaptability and flexibility, enabling it to easily adapt to different moxibustion tasks, body shapes, and complex acupoint stimulation path requirements. At the same time, it significantly reduces the technical threshold and time cost for users to operate and program, improving efficiency. This achieves automated, multi-angle, and multi-posture moxibustion operations, improving the flexibility and accuracy of moxibustion services.
[0035] In this embodiment, a distance sensor can be installed on the outer mesh 2 of the head cover. When any human limb or other foreign object approaches the lamp cover and exceeds its specified safe distance, the robotic arm will automatically avoid it and recalculate a new motion trajectory, effectively preventing accidental injury to personnel or equipment, ensuring the safety and reliability of the treatment environment, and meeting the high safety standards required for medical equipment. At the same time, a voice alarm module can be added to the robotic arm to issue an alarm sound and flashing LED signal light to provide auditory and visual prompts when an abnormal situation is detected. Example
[0036] In this embodiment, the external device is a floor-standing physiotherapy device, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the floor-standing physiotherapy device includes a rotating cantilever base 14 and a spring-loaded cantilever mechanism 13 mounted on the base. One end of the rigid or flexible support arm on the cantilever mechanism is fixed to the base of the physiotherapy device, and the other end is connected to the outer shell 10 of the headgear. A spring is provided at the joint of the cantilever. By adjusting the spring tension, such as tightening or loosening the spring hook, the joint resistance is changed, achieving stepless adjustment of the headgear's tilt and lateral angles. The rotating cantilever base 14 has a telescopic sleeve design, allowing free adjustment of the position of the spring-loaded cantilever mechanism 13 above it. A pivot can be installed between the cantilever and the base for horizontal rotation or locking, enabling lateral movement of the headgear. Specifically, the spring-loaded cantilever mechanism can be used to adjust the headgear's height, angle tilt, and horizontal movement. It features simple operation, low cost, and wide adaptability, enabling multi-angle therapeutic operations and improving the flexibility and accuracy of therapeutic services.
[0037] Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
