Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of moxibustion technology, specifically a multifunctional fumigation device for moxibustion therapy. Background Technology

[0002] Moxibustion, a type of acupuncture therapy in Traditional Chinese Medicine, uses the heat generated by moxa (made from mugwort leaves) to stimulate acupoints or specific areas on the body surface. By stimulating the activity of Qi (vital energy) in the meridians, it regulates the body's disordered physiological and biochemical functions, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing and treating diseases.

[0003] Reference patent document: Patent Publication No. CN209378037U, Patent Publication Date 2019-09-13, discloses a device for moxibustion, including a cylindrical shell, a cylindrical partition chamber provided inside the cylindrical shell via a connecting block, a first circular support plate connected to the bottom of the cylindrical partition chamber via a connecting rod, a cylindrical protrusion provided on the first circular support plate, a second circular support plate movably connected to the cylindrical protrusion via a cylindrical groove, and a circular baffle provided on the second circular support plate. This device has the advantages of controlling the intensity of the burning of the moxibustion material, preventing the burning intensity from being too high or too low, simplifying the collection of moxa ash, preventing ash from falling onto the body surface or specific areas and causing burns, and avoiding affecting the moxibustion effect. It also features high utilization efficiency of the moxibustion material, low outer surface temperature of the moxibustion device, reduced safety hazards, convenient placement and use, and good stability after placement.

[0004] Based on the search of patent numbers and the shortcomings of existing technologies, the following was found:

[0005] In actual use, most users of existing moxibustion devices often need to frequently disassemble the device to check the burning progress of the moxa stick. This is not only inconvenient to operate, but also interrupts the moxibustion process and reduces the therapeutic effect. Furthermore, the burning of the moxa stick during moxibustion therapy produces a large amount of smoke, which contains particulate pollutants, tar, and irritating odor molecules. This not only causes indoor air pollution and affects the user's experience, but long-term inhalation may also harm health. Moreover, when the moxibustion ends and the moxa stick is not completely burned, traditional devices cannot effectively handle the remaining moxa stick, which can easily lead to burns.

[0006] Therefore, this utility model provides a multifunctional fumigation device for moxibustion therapy. Utility Model Content

[0007] To address the problems of existing moxibustion devices requiring frequent disassembly to check the burning progress, which affects therapeutic efficacy, the health hazards caused by moxa smoke pollution, and the risk of burns from unburned moxa sticks, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a multifunctional fumigation device for moxibustion therapy.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multifunctional fumigation device for moxibustion therapy, comprising a cylinder, wherein an adjustment mechanism is provided at the upper part of the cylinder for detecting and controlling the burning amount of the moxa stick inside, the adjustment mechanism comprising:

[0009] The telescopic assembly includes a sleeve fitted onto the upper part of the cylinder, two symmetrically distributed electric actuators fixedly installed in the middle of the cylinder, the drive ends of the two electric actuators being fixedly installed on the inner upper surface of the sleeve, a fixing frame fixedly installed on the upper part of the sleeve, a temperature sensor fixedly installed in the middle of the bottom end of the fixing frame, a mounting frame provided at the lower part of the cylinder, and a filter cover provided at the lower part of the mounting frame.

[0010] The smoke removal component, located at the top of the sleeve, is used to absorb the smoke produced when the moxa stick is burning.

[0011] Preferably, the smoke removal assembly includes an adsorption plate disposed on the upper part of the sleeve, an installation cover threadedly mounted on the upper part of the sleeve, a pressure ring fixedly mounted on the lower part of the installation cover, the bottom end of the pressure ring contacting the top end of the adsorption plate, and a negative pressure fan mounted on the inner upper surface of the installation cover.

[0012] Preferably, the outer side of the cylinder has two symmetrically distributed grooves, and the inner wall of the sleeve has two symmetrically distributed sliders fixedly installed, both of which are slidably engaged inside the grooves.

[0013] Preferably, a negative pressure suction ring is threadedly installed on the lower part of the cylinder, a mounting bracket is fixedly installed on the upper part of the negative pressure suction ring, and a filter cover is detachably installed on the lower part of the negative pressure suction ring.

[0014] Preferably, the upper part of the sleeve is provided with a slot, and the adsorption plate is slidably engaged inside the slot.

[0015] Preferably, the upper part of the mounting cover is provided with multiple exhaust slots, and a baffle is rotatably mounted on the top of the mounting cover.

[0016] Beneficial effects

[0017] This invention provides a multifunctional fumigation device for moxibustion therapy. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0018] 1. This application uses a temperature sensor to monitor the temperature of the moxa stick's burning area in real time. When the moxa stick burns shorter and the temperature drops below the preset value, the electric actuator is activated to move the sleeve downward, causing a change in the distance between the sleeve and the negative pressure suction ring. Users can judge the burning status of the moxa stick by observing the change in this distance, avoiding the need for users to disassemble it for inspection, which would affect the moxibustion effect and thus improve the convenience and safety of use.

[0019] 2. This application utilizes an adsorption plate to efficiently adsorb particulate pollutants, tar, and irritating odor molecules from the smoke, improving the comfort of the moxibustion therapy process. Furthermore, if the moxa stick is not completely burned out when the moxibustion time ends, a negative pressure fan can be activated to blow air into the exhaust duct, creating negative pressure inside the cylinder to accelerate the burning of the moxa stick and eliminate the risk of burns during disassembly. In addition, the adsorption plate can be easily and quickly replaced by rotating and removing the installation cover, ensuring continuous smoke removal efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a multifunctional fumigation device for moxibustion therapy, including a cylinder 1, with an adjustment mechanism 2 on the upper part of the cylinder 1 for detecting and controlling the burning amount of the moxa stick inside. The adjustment mechanism 2 includes:

[0027] The telescopic assembly 21 includes a sleeve 211 fitted onto the upper part of the cylinder 1. Two symmetrically distributed electric actuators 212 are fixedly installed in the middle of the cylinder 1. The electric actuators 212 are made of high-strength alloy telescopic rods and are driven by a servo motor to achieve millimeter-level lifting control, ensuring the stability and precision of the sleeve 211's lifting process. The drive ends of both electric actuators 212 are fixedly installed on the inner upper surface of the sleeve 211. A fixing frame 214 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the sleeve 211, and a temperature sensor is fixedly installed at the bottom center of the fixing frame 214. Sensor 2141 is a high-precision infrared temperature sensor with a short response time, which can monitor the temperature change of the moxa stick burning area in real time and accurately. At the same time, it is equipped with an analysis and control module to analyze the temperature and control the lifting and stopping of the electric push rod 212. The lower part of the cylinder 1 is equipped with a mounting bracket 215, which is made of high temperature resistant ceramic material. It can not only stably support the moxa stick, but also withstand high temperature without releasing harmful substances. The lower part of the mounting bracket 215 is equipped with a filter cover 216.

[0028] The smoke removal component 22 is located on the upper part of the sleeve 211 and is used to absorb the smoke generated when the moxa stick is burning.

[0029] The smoke removal assembly 22 includes an adsorption plate 221 disposed on the upper part of the sleeve 211. The adsorption plate 221 is made of honeycomb activated carbon fiber material, which has a large specific surface area and abundant microporous structure, and can efficiently adsorb particulate pollutants, tar, and irritating odor molecules in smoke. An installation cover 224 is threadedly installed on the upper part of the sleeve 211, and a pressure ring 222 is fixedly installed on the lower part of the installation cover 224 to firmly press the adsorption plate 221 and prevent it from loosening during operation. The bottom end of the pressure ring 222 contacts the top end of the adsorption plate 221. By rotating and removing the installation cover 224 from the upper part of the sleeve 211, the adsorption plate 221 can be replaced. During installation, after the new adsorption plate 221 is snapped into the slot 2211, the mounting cover 224 is threaded onto the upper part of the sleeve 211. At this time, the pressure ring 222 is in close contact with the top of the adsorption plate 221 to press and fix it, so that it is firmly snapped into the slot 2211. A negative pressure fan 223 is installed on the inner upper surface of the mounting cover 224. When the moxibustion time is up and the moxa stick has not burned out, the device can be removed from the skin. The negative pressure fan 223 can be turned on to blow air towards the exhaust slot 2251, so that negative pressure is generated inside the cylinder 1 to help the moxa stick burn quickly, thereby avoiding the risk of burns when removing the moxa stick before it has burned out.

[0030] Two symmetrically distributed grooves 2131 are provided on the outer side of the cylinder 1. Two symmetrically distributed sliders 213 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the sleeve 211. Both sliders 213 are slidably locked inside the grooves 2131. Through the cooperation between the sliders 213 and the grooves 2131, the lifting and lowering of the sleeve 211 can be guided, effectively limiting the rotation of the sleeve 211 and ensuring that the sleeve 211 remains stable during the lifting and lowering process.

[0031] A negative pressure suction ring 217 is threadedly installed on the lower part of the cylinder 1. The mounting bracket 215 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the negative pressure suction ring 217. The lower part of the negative pressure suction ring 217 is made of high temperature resistant rubber material, and multiple negative pressure adsorption holes are opened at the bottom end. It can be fixed to the skin surface by pressing the negative pressure suction ring 217 to generate negative pressure. The filter cover 216 is detachably installed on the lower part of the negative pressure suction ring 217. The filter cover 216 is made of fine stainless steel mesh material, which can not only prevent the ash from falling and burning the skin, but also facilitate disassembly and cleaning, keeping the device clean and hygienic.

[0032] The upper part of the sleeve 211 is provided with a slot 2211, and the adsorption plate 221 is slidably locked inside the slot 2211, which facilitates the installation and replacement of the adsorption plate 221.

[0033] The upper part of the mounting cover 224 is provided with multiple exhaust slots 2251. A baffle 225 is rotatably mounted on the top of the mounting cover 224. A butterfly knob is provided in the middle of the baffle 225, which allows the user to control the opening size of the exhaust slots 2251 by rotating it, thereby flexibly adjusting the burning speed of the moxa stick.

[0034] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0035] During operation, the moxa stick is inserted into the middle of the mounting bracket 215 and lit. The negative pressure suction ring 217 is then threaded onto the lower part of the cylinder 1. The lower part of the suction ring 217 then contacts the user's skin at the acupoint. Pressing it allows it to adhere to the skin. Rotating the baffle 225 controls the opening size of the exhaust groove 2251, thus controlling the burning speed of the moxa stick. Simultaneously, the temperature sensor 2141 detects the stability of the moxa stick. By presetting the detection temperature, the burning speed of the moxa stick is controlled. As the moxa stick burns, its length gradually shortens, thus increasing the relative distance between it and the heat source. When the temperature is lower than the preset temperature, the electric actuator 212 is activated, causing the sleeve 211 to move downwards, keeping it at the preset temperature. When the moxa stick is completely burned, the temperature sensor 2141 controls the electric actuator 212 to retract, causing the bottom of the sleeve 211 to contact the top of the negative pressure suction ring 217. The user can then observe the position between the sleeve 211 and the negative pressure suction ring 217 to determine the burning status of the moxa stick.

[0036] During the process of burning moxa sticks and expelling the smoke through the exhaust channel 2251, the adsorption plate 221 can quickly adsorb particulate pollutants, tar, and irritating odor molecules in the smoke, thereby making the moxibustion therapy process more comfortable and healthy.
