Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a moxibustion device, specifically a moxibustion instrument with protection, belonging to the field of rehabilitation and health care equipment technology. Background Technology
[0002] Moxibustion devices are common health conditioning equipment in medical and healthcare settings. During moxibustion, a large amount of smoke is generated, which can be harmful if inhaled. To eliminate this harm, newer existing moxibustion devices are equipped with a three-way catalytic converter to treat the smoke. Examples of such devices include the moxibustion device disclosed in Chinese Patent Application No. 2022226744639, the three-way catalytic filter disclosed in Chinese Patent Application No. 2022206833466, and CN 221655112. U discloses a smokeless moxibustion device, etc. These moxibustion devices can basically achieve smokeless moxibustion, but in actual use, the following problems have been found that need to be improved: First, during moxibustion, the burning of the moxa stick not only produces moxa smoke, but also produces some moxa oil. This moxa oil passes through the three-way catalytic converter, and with long-term use, the three-way catalytic converter may become clogged, greatly reducing its service life; Second, there are also some fault states during the use of the equipment, namely, when the exhaust fan is damaged, the gas cannot flow downward. Due to the upward flow of hot air, the temperature measuring device located below the heating chamber and installed on the three-way catalytic converter has difficulty accurately detecting the temperature, causing the internal temperature of the equipment to rise continuously, resulting in damage or burnout of the equipment and its components. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the aforementioned problems in the existing technology and to provide a moxibustion device with protection.
[0004] To achieve the purpose of this utility model, the following technical solution is adopted: a moxibustion device with protection, including a moxibustion head, a flue pipe connected to the moxibustion head, the lower end of the flue pipe connected to a closed smoke chamber, the bottom surface of the smoke chamber being a closed plate, a flue pipe connected to the closed plate communicating with a heating chamber, the flue pipe communicating with the smoke chamber, the heating chamber being connected to a three-way catalytic converter through a pipe, an exhaust fan installed at the outlet of the three-way catalytic converter, an oil outlet being opened on the closed plate, an moxa oil collection bottle being connected to the oil outlet, the moxa oil collection bottle being directly connected to the oil outlet or connected to the oil outlet through a pipe.
[0005] Furthermore, the upper end of the flue is located inside the flue chamber, and the upper end of the flue is higher than the oil outlet.
[0006] Furthermore, a temperature protection switch is installed in the heating chamber, and the temperature protection switch is connected to the controller.
[0007] Furthermore, a protective cover is installed at the upper end of the smoke pipe, and multiple smoke inlets are opened on the periphery of the smoke pipe, with the smoke inlets located inside the smoke chamber.
[0008] The positive and beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting up an oil collection bottle in this moxibustion device, the oil produced during the moxibustion process can be collected, effectively protecting the three-way catalytic converter from clogging and extending its service life. By adding a temperature protection switch to the heating chamber, the temperature at that location will rise abnormally after the fan is damaged. The temperature protection switch can detect this abnormality in time, avoiding damage to the accessories and equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0013] To more fully explain the implementation of this utility model, implementation examples are provided. These implementation examples are merely illustrative of this utility model and do not limit its scope.
[0014] The present invention will be further explained in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which the following labels are used: 1: moxibustion head; 2: smoke pipe; 3: smoke chamber; 4: smoke tube; 5: heating chamber; 6: three-way catalytic converter; 7: exhaust fan; 8: moxa oil collection bottle; 9: temperature protection switch; 10: sealing plate; 11: oil outlet; 12: protective cover; 13: moxa smoke inlet; 14: oil pipe; 15: oil bottle compartment.
[0015] A protected moxibustion device includes a moxibustion head 1, a flue pipe 2 connected to the moxibustion head, and a closed smoke chamber 3 connected to the lower end of the flue pipe. The bottom surface of the smoke chamber is a sealing plate 10, and a flue pipe 4 communicating with a heating chamber 5 is connected to the sealing plate. The flue pipe 4 is connected to the smoke chamber 3. The heating chamber 5 is connected to a three-way catalytic converter 6 through a pipe. An exhaust fan 7 is installed at the outlet of the three-way catalytic converter. The above is the existing configuration of existing smokeless moxibustion devices.
[0016] An oil outlet 11 is provided on the sealed plate, and an oil collection bottle is connected to the oil outlet. The oil collection bottle is directly connected to the oil outlet or connected to the oil outlet through a pipeline. This application provides two embodiments for installing the oil collection bottle. The first is as follows... Figure 2 As shown, the mugwort oil collection bottle is directly connected to the oil outlet; the second type is as follows... Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, an oil pipe is connected to the oil outlet, and the other end of the oil pipe is connected to an moxa oil collection bottle. The moxa oil collection bottle is placed on the oil bottle compartment 15 machined on the back of the equipment housing. A compartment door with transparent glass can be installed on the oil bottle compartment 15 to facilitate timely observation of the amount of moxa oil collected for timely processing. As a further optimization, the upper end of the smoke pipe is located inside the smoke chamber and is higher than the oil outlet. A protective cover 12 is installed on the upper end of the smoke pipe to prevent foreign objects from entering the smoke pipe and to prevent moxa oil adhering to the upper wall of the smoke pipe from dripping into the smoke pipe. Multiple moxa smoke inlets 13 are opened on the peripheral wall of the smoke pipe. The bottom of the moxa smoke inlets is higher than the oil outlet to prevent moxa oil from flowing into the smoke pipe. The moxa smoke inlets are located inside the smoke chamber.
[0017] To prevent damage to the equipment from hot air rising from the heating chamber in the event of a malfunctioning exhaust fan, a temperature protection switch 9 is installed at the top of the heating chamber. This switch is connected to the controller. If the temperature rises abnormally, the temperature protection switch will detect it promptly and shut off the heating power to the heating chamber.
[0018] The use of this moxibustion device is the same as that of existing smokeless moxibustion devices. During use, the produced moxa oil enters the moxa oil collection bottle through the oil outlet, which can protect the three-way catalytic converter.
[0019] After a detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model, those skilled in the art will clearly understand that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the above-mentioned patent applications. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model shall fall within the scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and this utility model is not limited to the embodiments of the examples given in the specification.
