Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of moxibustion, specifically to a moxibustion device. Background Technology

[0002] Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy that uses the heat and medicinal properties of burning mugwort (moxa wool) to stimulate acupoints on the body, achieving effects such as warming the meridians and promoting blood circulation, dispelling cold and dampness, and strengthening the body's resistance to pathogens. Its mechanism of action includes heat stimulation, drug penetration, and meridian regulation, and it is suitable for cold-related illnesses, qi and blood deficiency, and chronic diseases.

[0003] A moxibustion box is an auxiliary tool used in moxibustion, primarily for securing moxa sticks or cones, facilitating operation and reducing the risk of burns. It is typically made of heat-resistant materials (such as wood, metal, or ceramic) and designed with ventilation holes to ensure even distribution of smoke and heat during moxibustion. Moxibustion boxes come in various types, including single-hole, multi-hole, and portable models, suitable for different areas and needs. To use a moxibustion box, insert a lit moxa stick into the box and place it above the acupoint or area requiring moxibustion; the warmth stimulates the body for therapeutic effects.

[0004] During moxibustion, if the temperature is too high, it may burn the skin, especially on sensitive or thin skin areas (such as the face and neck). Therefore, the temperature of the moxibustion box needs to be regulated. The existing methods of regulating the temperature of moxibustion boxes are relatively complicated and there is still room for improvement and optimization. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other alternative implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, in one embodiment of the moxibustion device 100, the moxibustion device 100 includes a combustion chamber 10, a cover 20, an adjusting component 30, and a contact seat 40. The combustion chamber 10 has a combustion space 11 inside, where combustible materials made from mugwort, such as mugwort sticks, mugwort cakes, and mugwort grains (hereinafter referred to as mugwort combustibles), can burn. One side of the combustion chamber 10 has a medicinal release end 12 connected to the combustion space 11, which can release the heat and medicinal effects of the burning mugwort combustibles. The cover 20 is placed around the combustion chamber 10, providing protection and preventing burns. The adjusting component 30 is connected to the combustion chamber 10 and the cover 20. The device 100 has a conductive cavity 31 connected to the medicinal release end 12, which can transmit the heat and medicinal effects of the burning mugwort. The contact seat 40 has a top surface 41 and a bottom surface 42 that are far apart from each other, and an adjustment cavity 43 that connects the top surface 41 and the bottom surface 42. The area of ​​the adjustment cavity 43 on the bottom surface 42 serves as the therapeutic end 44, which is the end of the moxibustion device 100 that acts on the treatment site during use and is also the end closest to the treatment site. The adjustment element 30 is set inside the adjustment cavity 43 and is coaxial with the adjustment cavity 43. It can move along the axis of the adjustment cavity 43 to adjust the distance between the medicinal release end 12 and the therapeutic end 44.

[0020] In this embodiment, the adjusting member 30 can move along the axis of the adjusting cavity 43, causing the combustion chamber 10 to move closer to or further away from the therapeutic end 44, thereby adjusting the distance between the drug release end 12 and the therapeutic end 44. When the drug release end 12 is closer to the therapeutic end 44, the temperature of the therapeutic end 44 is higher; when the drug release end 12 is farther from the therapeutic end 44, the temperature of the therapeutic end 44 is lower. The user can adjust the distance between the drug release end 12 and the therapeutic end 44 according to the skin's tolerance to achieve the purpose of temperature regulation and improve the comfort during the moxibustion process.

[0021] Furthermore, the adjusting member 30 is movably or rotatably disposed within the adjusting cavity 43, thereby enabling movement along the axis of the adjusting cavity 43.

[0022] like Figure 4 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the adjusting member 30 has an annular structure, and the outer side of the peripheral wall of the adjusting member 30 has external threads along the circumferential direction. The adjusting cavity 43 of the contact seat 40 has internal threads, and the adjusting member 30 and the adjusting cavity 43 are screwed together. When the adjusting member 30 rotates, the adjusting member 30 moves along the axis of the adjusting cavity 43, causing the drug release end 12 of the combustion chamber 10 to move closer to or away from the physiotherapy end 44.

[0023] like Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, both the cover 20 and the combustion chamber 10 are cylindrical structures, and their axes coincide with the axis of the adjusting member 30. Since both the cover 20 and the combustion chamber 10 are connected to the adjusting member 30, when the adjusting member 30 rotates, the cover 20 and the combustion chamber 10 rotate synchronously, that is, the cover 20 and the combustion chamber 10 move closer to or further away from the physiotherapy end 44 of the contact seat 40. Therefore, the user can trigger the adjusting member 30 to rotate synchronously within the adjusting cavity 43 by rotating the cover 20, so that the drug release end 12 of the combustion chamber 10 moves closer to or further away from the physiotherapy end 44, thereby achieving the purpose of temperature adjustment.

[0024] In some other embodiments, the adjusting member 30 and the adjusting cavity 43 are in a sliding engagement. The user can trigger the adjusting member 30 to slide in the adjusting cavity 43 by pulling the cover 20. During the sliding process, the drug release end 12 of the combustion chamber 10 moves closer to or further away from the physiotherapy end 44, thereby achieving the purpose of temperature regulation. Preferably, there is damping between the outer wall of the adjusting member 30 and the inner wall of the adjusting cavity 43 (for example, adding a rubber pad or coating between the outer wall of the adjusting member 30 and the inner wall of the cavity to achieve a damping effect through friction), ensuring that the adjusting member 30 remains stable after it stops sliding and does not displace.

[0025] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the adjusting member 30 also includes a support boss 32 circumferentially disposed on the inner wall of the conduction cavity 31. The support boss 32 has a ring-shaped structure, specifically a circular ring. The combustion chamber 10 is located on one side of the drug release end 12 and abuts against the support boss 32. At the same time, in order to prevent the combustion chamber 10 from moving along the circumferential direction on the support boss 32, this application also positions the combustion chamber 10.

[0026] exist Figure 5 In the combustion chamber 10, located on one side of the drug release end 12, at least one first positioning part 15 is provided along the circumferential direction; Figure 4 In the support boss 32, there is at least one second positioning part 34 adapted to the first positioning part 15 along the circumferential direction. The position of the second positioning part 34 is close to the inner wall of the conduction cavity 31. One of the first positioning part 15 and the second positioning part 34 is a protruding structure, and the other of the first positioning part 15 and the second positioning part 34 is a groove structure. The protruding structure can be engaged in the groove structure. When the combustion chamber 10 is assembled on the support boss 32, the first positioning part 15 and the second positioning part 34 are aligned and engaged, which can position the combustion chamber 10, restrict the movement of the combustion chamber 10 in the circumferential direction, and improve the stability of the combustion chamber 10.

[0027] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the outer circumferential sidewall of the adjusting member 30 is provided with a plurality of first connecting portions 33; as Figure 6As shown, the cover 20 is provided with a second connecting part 21 on the side near the adjusting member 30, which is adapted to the first connecting part 33. The first connecting part 33 and the second connecting part 21 can be detachably connected, such as by plugging, snapping, or threading.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, in one specific embodiment, the first connecting portion 33 has a recessed structure, including a notch 331 and an engaging portion 332 communicating with one side of the notch 331; as Figure 6 As shown, the second connecting part 21 has a protrusion structure. After being inserted into the notch 331, the second connecting part 21 can be further rotated towards the engaging part 332 to engage with it, thereby achieving relative fixation between the cover 20 and the adjusting member 30. The engaging part 332 also has a first protrusion 333, and the edge of the second connecting part 21 has a first groove 211. When the second connecting part 21 rotates into the engaging part 332, the first protrusion 333 and the first groove 211 engage and fix it, preventing the second connecting part 21 from disengaging from the engaging part 332. When disassembling the cover 20, the cover 20 is rotated in the opposite direction to allow the second connecting part 21 to disengage from the engaging part 332 and leave through the notch 331.

[0029] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the combustion chamber 10 has a cylindrical structure and multiple ventilation windows 13 connected to the combustion space 11 in the circumference of the combustion chamber 10. The ventilation windows 13 allow air to enter the combustion space 11 and provide oxygen for the combustion of the mugwort.

[0030] Furthermore, in Figure 5 In the combustion chamber 10, the side furthest from the drug release end 12 has a central hole 14, combined with... Figure 8 The moxibustion device 100 also includes a carrying assembly 60 for holding the burning mugwort. The carrying assembly 60 includes a drawer 61 and a carrying section 62. The drawer 61 is inserted through and fixed to the central hole 14. The carrying section 62 is disposed on one side of the drawer 61 and extends into the combustion chamber 10. After the carrying section 62 has finished loading and igniting the burning mugwort, the carrying section 62 is inserted through the central hole 14 into the combustion space 11 of the combustion chamber 10, and then the drawer 61 is fixed to the central hole 14.

[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 8 As shown, the drawer cover 61 includes an inner cover 612 and an outer cover 611. The inner cover 612 is embedded inside the outer cover 611. The inner cover 612 is made of silicone. The end of the inner cover 612 near the loading part 62 has a locking block 613 in the circumferential direction. The locking block 613 can be locked and fixed to the edge of the combustion chamber 10 located in the central hole 14, thereby fixing the drawer cover 61 to the central hole 14. In some other embodiments, the drawer cover 61 can also be an integral structure.

[0032] like Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the carrying part 62 has a needle-like structure, with a ring-shaped top that is fitted to the inner cover 612; the tip of the needle-like structure can be inserted into the mugwort burning material to load it. In some other embodiments, the carrying part 62 has a mesh-like cylindrical structure that can hold the mugwort burning material.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 6 As shown, a pull-out hole 24 is provided at the position corresponding to the central hole 14 on the cover 20, and the pull-out cover 61 is exposed through the pull-out hole 24; when the mugwort burning material on the carrying part 62 has burned out, the carrying part 60 can be pulled out through the pull-out hole 24 to facilitate the replacement of the mugwort burning material.

[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, the cover 20 is also provided with an air inlet 22 and an air outlet 23. The air inlet 22 is located far away from the pull-out hole 24. The function of the air inlet 22 is to allow air to enter the cover 20, pass through the ventilation window 13 of the combustion chamber 10 and enter the combustion space 11 to provide oxygen for the burning of the mugwort. The air outlet 23 is located close to the pull-out hole 24. The function of the air outlet 23 is to allow the odors and smoke produced after the burning of the mugwort to flow out.

[0035] Preferably, there are multiple air inlets 22, all of which are strip-shaped and are evenly distributed on the circumferential wall of the cover 20; there are multiple air outlets 23, all of which are strip-shaped and are far away from the air inlets 22, and are evenly distributed on the circumferential wall of the cover 20.

[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, in order to filter the smoke and dust after the burning of mugwort, the moxibustion device 100 also includes a smoke filter cotton 50 arranged around the periphery of the combustion chamber 10. The smoke filter cotton 50 covers multiple ventilation windows 13, which can filter the smoke and impurities produced by the burning of mugwort, and at the same time has breathability to facilitate air circulation.

[0037] In this embodiment, the filter cotton 50 can be made of polyacrylonitrile fiber, non-woven fabric, activated carbon fiber, ceramic fiber, etc.

[0038] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the moxibustion device 100 also includes a filter screen 80, which is disposed inside the conduction cavity 31 and blocks the cross-section of the conduction cavity 31. It is used to filter the ash produced after the burning of the moxa, and to prevent the ash from falling onto the user's skin through the conduction cavity 31 during the moxibustion process, causing burns and contamination.

[0039] In this embodiment, the filter screen 80 is fixed to the support boss 32; in some other embodiments, the filter screen 80 is disposed at the drug release end 12 of the combustion chamber 10, i.e. Figure 5 Bottom of the combustion chamber 10.

[0040] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, the contact base 40 of the moxibustion device 100 has at least two symmetrical connecting ears 45 on its circumferential sidewall. These connecting ears 45 are used to connect with a fixing strap (not shown in the figure). Through the fixing strap, the moxibustion device 100 can be securely fitted to different parts of the user's body, such as the legs, back, and elbows, ensuring the device remains stable during moxibustion and improving the user experience and therapeutic effect. This design not only enhances the applicability of the instrument but also improves comfort and convenience during use.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, the moxibustion device 100 also includes a contact washer 70, which is disposed circumferentially on the bottom surface 42 of the base body along the treatment end 44. During moxibustion, the contact washer 70 comes into contact with the skin. Preferably, the contact washer 70 is made of silicone, which is soft and elastic, and can closely conform to the skin, reducing pressure and discomfort, and improving user comfort; at the same time, the contact washer 70 has a sealing effect, preventing smoke or heat leakage during moxibustion, and improving the moxibustion effect.

[0042] Finally, it should be noted that if any directional indication (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) is involved in the embodiments of this application, the directional indication is 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 indication will also change accordingly.

[0043] Furthermore, if the embodiments of this application involve descriptions such as "first" or "second," these descriptions are 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. Therefore, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.
