Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of moxibustion therapy in traditional Chinese medicine, specifically a smokeless moxa essential oil acupoint therapy device. Background Technology

[0002] Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine external therapy that uses moxa sticks or cones made from mugwort leaves as tools. The heat generated when the moxa sticks are lit, along with the medicinal properties of the mugwort, acts on specific acupoints or areas of the body. Through the conduction of meridians, it stimulates the activity of Qi and regulates the body's disordered physiological and biochemical functions. This achieves the purposes of warming and unblocking the meridians, dispelling cold and relieving pain, promoting Qi and blood circulation, resolving stagnation and nodules, and preventing and maintaining health. It has a good conditioning effect on various acute and chronic diseases and sub-health conditions.

[0003] While traditional moxibustion is widely used in the field of health preservation, it has many obvious drawbacks. When burning moxa wool, a large amount of smoke is produced. This smoke permeates the air, polluting both indoor and outdoor environments and easily irritating the human respiratory tract, causing discomfort symptoms such as coughing and wheezing. It is especially unfriendly to people with respiratory sensitivities. At the same time, the temperature of the burning moxa wool is difficult to control precisely, which can easily lead to burns on the acupoints and even cause fires, posing a huge safety hazard. In addition, the traditional moxibustion treatment process is complicated and requires professional personnel to operate in a specific treatment area. The equipment is inconvenient to carry, which greatly limits its application scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0013] To more clearly illustrate the overall concept of this utility model, a detailed description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0014] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a smokeless mugwort essential oil acupoint therapy device, including an acupoint patch 1, the acupoint patch 1 including an anti-allergy adhesive layer 12, a controlled-release microporous membrane 13 is attached and fixed to the back side of the anti-allergy adhesive layer 12, and a mugwort essential oil sustained-release layer 14 is attached and fixed to the back side of the controlled-release microporous membrane 13. This acupoint patch 1 uses a patch form to perform moxibustion therapy, avoiding many drawbacks of traditional moxibustion methods. Its internal mugwort essential oil slow-release layer 14 can continuously, stably and evenly release mugwort essential oil onto the acupoints, allowing the effective ingredients to fully penetrate. No open flame is required during use, eliminating the risk of fire at the source. Moreover, it will not cause burns to acupoints due to excessive temperature like traditional moxibustion. In addition, the patch is small and easy to carry, allowing for moxibustion anytime and anywhere, whether traveling, in the office or at home.

[0015] A kraft paper pad 11 is attached to the front of the hypoallergenic adhesive layer 12, a heat-sensitive penetration-enhancing layer 15 is attached to the back of the mugwort essential oil slow-release layer 14, and a heat-insulating backing 16 is attached to the back of the heat-sensitive penetration-enhancing layer 15.

[0016] When using, peel off the kraft paper pad 11 at the front end, and then stick the hypoallergenic adhesive layer 12 onto the acupoint.

[0017] The hypoallergenic adhesive layer 12 includes a hydrogel colloid 121, and a concentric positioning protrusion 122 is fixed on the front side of the hydrogel colloid 121.

[0018] When using it, the concentric positioning protrusions 122 can be used to ensure that the acupoint is in the middle of the hypoallergenic adhesive layer 12, ensuring accurate application.

[0019] The controlled-release microporous membrane 13 includes a PE membrane 131, and permeation pores 132 are formed on the surface of the PE membrane 131. The permeation pores 132 are arranged in several groups and are evenly distributed on the surface of the PE membrane 131.

[0020] The mugwort essential oil sustained-release layer 14 is made of porous silicone material and contains high-purity mugwort essential oil. The high-purity mugwort essential oil enters the hypoallergenic adhesive layer 12 through several sets of permeation pores 132 of the controlled-release microporous membrane 13.

[0021] The controlled-release microporous membrane 13 features a double-sided decreasing pore size design, with an outer pore size of 20μm and an inner pore size of 5μm, which can control the essential oil release rate between 0.5-2μL / h. The Artemisia argyi essential oil sustained-release layer 14 contains a transdermal absorption enhancer (such as azone) to improve the transdermal absorption rate of the essential oil. When adsorbing essential oil, the porous silica material retains the active ingredients through supercritical CO2 extraction, avoiding the destruction of effective ingredients such as eucalyptol and camphor by high temperature. Compared with the traditional distillation method, the retention rate is improved. At the same time, cyclodextrin inclusion complexes are added to prevent the essential oil from oxidative deactivation.

[0022] The use of controlled-release microporous membrane 13 enables the "fast release + sustained release" dual-phase release through the microporous membrane pore size gradient design. It releases a small amount of essential oil in the first 30 minutes to take effect quickly, and then releases the remaining dose at a constant rate over the next 6 hours.

[0023] The thermal insulation backing 16 includes an aluminum foil 151, and a cable socket 152 is provided on the rear side of the aluminum foil 151. The heat-sensitive penetration-enhancing layer 15 contains iron powder, activated carbon, etc. After the kraft paper pad 11 is peeled off, the heat-sensitive penetration-enhancing layer 15 oxidizes when exposed to air, generating a low temperature of 40-45℃, which simulates the warmth of moxibustion and promotes drug penetration. When using the patch, a portable penetration enhancer can be connected and used simultaneously. Insert the cable of the penetration enhancer into the cable socket 162. The microcurrent conducts electricity through the aluminum foil 161. The microcurrent stimulation (<1mA) can open the skin channels and enhance the absorption of essential oils. The use of aluminum foil 161 can reduce the evaporation of essential oils and maintain the local temperature.

[0024] The essential oil compound formula is mugwort + peppermint + chuanxiong in a ratio of 6:2:2. The anti-allergy adhesive layer 12, apart from the hydrogel colloid, is made of polylactic acid (PLA) matrix.
