Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of reed tube moxibustion technology, specifically to a modular reed tube moxibustion device. Background Technology

[0002] Reed tube moxibustion is a classic external treatment method in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Its core lies in the directional delivery of moxibustion heat and medicinal vapors into the ear canal through a hollow reed tube. The natural material of the reed tube wall combines breathability and thermal conductivity stability, effectively maintaining the warming effect required for moxibustion, and is especially suitable for the treatment of ear diseases, facial paralysis, and head and face disorders.

[0003] Currently, the mainstream reed tube moxibustion tools on the market can be divided into two categories:

[0004] Open structure type: This type uses a fan-shaped support made of reed tube and thin metal sheet (such as aluminum can material), with the moxa stick directly exposed to combustion. This design causes a large amount of combustion heat to escape, and there is a risk that the moxa ash will be splashed and inhaled by the patient. The hot metal sheet can easily cause burns when it comes into contact with the skin.

[0005] Closed-type structure: The tubular material is molded into a funnel shape using rubber and connected to a fixed moxa cone container. Although it avoids exposure to open flame, the rubber will harden and yellow over time when subjected to temperatures above 80°C, and the charred moxa oil adhering to the surface is difficult to remove. More importantly, this structure completely abandons the reed tube component, which violates the essential requirements of the therapy. Utility Model Content

[0044] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, 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.

[0045] Example 1

[0046] Combination Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention provides a modular reed tube moxibustion device, comprising:

[0047] reed pipe 100;

[0048] The front end cap 200 has an insertion hole 210 at its center for inserting the reed tube 100, and elastic clips 220 arranged in a ring array in the middle of its inner wall. Multiple sets of elastic clips 220 are used to clamp and position the inserted reed tube 100.

[0049] The middle filter cover 300 has a mesh plate 310 inside and a first assembly ring 320 at its front end. The first assembly ring 320 is interference-fitted into the rear end of the front cover 200.

[0050] The main body 400 has heat dissipation holes 410 on its side wall and a second assembly ring 420 at its front end. The second assembly ring 420 is interference-fitted into the rear end of the middle filter cover 300.

[0051] The rear end cover 500 has a third assembly ring 520 at its front end, which is interference-fitted into the rear end of the main body 400. The inner wall of the rear end cover 500 has a first nail seat 510 in the middle.

[0052] The first moxa stick 800 has its rear end inserted into the first nail seat 510.

[0053] The above plan:

[0054] 1. The reed tube moxibustion device is designed to consist of multiple modules, with each module being plugged in and connected to the other, enabling rapid assembly of the reed tube moxibustion device. At the same time, it is also easy to disassemble and separate the device later, making it convenient to replace the moxa sticks and clean each part.

[0055] 2. Multiple sets of elastic clamps 220 are designed to clamp and position the reed tube 100, adapting to reed tubes 100 with different outer diameters.

[0056] 3. The 310 mesh can filter cigarette ash and prevent it from entering the ear canal.

[0057] In this embodiment, rubber rings 600 are fitted onto the first assembly ring 320, the second assembly ring 420, and the third assembly ring 520. The rubber rings 600 enable interference fit of the assembly rings, achieving interference positioning for the assembly of each module. Grooves are provided at the assembly points of each component for the rubber rings 600 to be inserted.

[0058] In this embodiment, a sheath 110 is fitted to the rear end of the reed tube 100, and the sheath 110 passes through the insertion hole 210 with an interference fit. The outer diameter of the insertion hole 210 is larger than the outer diameter of the reed tube 100 to accommodate different reed tubes 100. In order to eliminate the gap between the reed tube 100 and the insertion hole 210, the sheath 110 is added. The sheath 110 is made by wrapping cotton cloth or non-woven fabric around the end of the reed tube 100, and wrapping it with an appropriate number of turns according to the outer diameter of the reed tube 100.

[0059] In this embodiment, the elastic clip 220 includes a fixed section and an elastic section. The fixed section is attached to the inner wall of the front end cover 200 by screws, and the elastic section is inclined, with its outer end pressing against the outside of the reed tube 100.

[0060] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the main body 400 is provided with a first metal cover 430, and the inner wall of the rear end cover 500 is provided with a second metal cover 530. Since the main body 400 and the rear end cover 500 are the burning areas of the moxa stick, the internal temperature is high. Providing the first metal cover 430 and the second metal cover 530 can serve as a barrier and protection. The first metal cover 430 and the second metal cover 530 are, for example, made of aluminum.

[0061] During the implementation of this embodiment:

[0062] Wrap cotton cloth around the end of the reed tube 100, then insert the reed tube 100 into the insertion hole 210. Multiple sets of elastic clips 220 clamp and position the end of the reed tube 100. Insert the first assembly ring 320 of the middle filter cover 300 into the rear end of the front cover 200 with an interference fit. Insert the second assembly ring 420 of the main body 400 into the rear end of the middle filter cover 300 with an interference fit. Insert the first moxa stick 800 into the first nail seat 510, and then ignite the first moxa stick 800. Insert the third assembly ring 520 of the rear cover 500 into the rear end of the main body 400 with an interference fit. In this way, the assembly is completed.

[0063] With the end of the reed tube 100 close to the patient's ear canal, the smoke generated by the first moxa stick 800 passes through the mesh plate 310 and is discharged through the reed tube 100.

[0064] Example 2

[0065] Ear canal moxibustion using the moxa cones provided in Example 1 requires the patient to hold the cones while sitting, and the moxibustion time is relatively long, causing the patient's hand to become sore and tired. To solve the above problems, the following example is provided.

[0066] Combination Figures 1-3 , Figures 6-7 As shown, the present invention provides a modular reed tube moxibustion device, comprising:

[0067] reed pipe 100;

[0068] The front end cap 200 has an insertion hole 210 at its center for inserting the reed tube 100, and elastic clips 220 arranged in a ring array in the middle of its inner wall. Multiple sets of elastic clips 220 are used to clamp and position the inserted reed tube 100.

[0069] The middle filter cover 300 has a mesh plate 310 inside and a first assembly ring 320 at its front end. The first assembly ring 320 is interference-fitted into the rear end of the front cover 200.

[0070] The headrest mounting cover 700 has a fourth mounting ring 720 at its front end, which is interference-fitted into the rear end of the middle filter cover 300; a rubber ring 600 is fitted on the outer wall of the fourth mounting ring 720; and a smoke inlet 710 is opened on the side wall of the headrest mounting cover 700.

[0071] The moxibustion pillow 900 has a placement groove 940 symmetrically opened on the top surface of the moxibustion cover. The placement groove 940 has a second smoke vent 941 inside. The top surface of the moxibustion pillow 900, excluding the placement groove 940, has a first smoke vent 930. The headrest cover 700 is inserted into the placement groove 940, and the smoke inlet 710 is connected to the second smoke vent 941. The moxibustion pillow 900 has a storage cavity 950 inside. One end of the storage cavity 950 is open and covered with a sealing cap 920. A base plate 910 is inserted inside the storage cavity 950. The surface of the base plate 910 is provided with multiple sets of second nail seats 911. A second moxa stick 960 is inserted into the top of the second nail seat 911. The second moxa stick 960 is positioned below the first smoke vent 930 and the second smoke vent 941.

[0072] In the above scheme:

[0073] A headrest mounting cover 700 is installed at the rear end of the middle filter cover 300. The headrest mounting cover 700 does not have an air column, but has a smoke inlet 710, which only serves as a guide structure for the flue gas.

[0074] Based on the current moxibustion pillow 900, an improvement is made by opening two placement slots 940 on the moxibustion pillow 900 and opening a second smoke exhaust port 941 in the placement slots 940. The operator can place the reed tube moxibustion device equipped with the headrest mounting cover 700 in the placement slots 940, and the smoke inlet 710 is aligned with the second smoke exhaust port 941.

[0075] Open the sealing cover 920, pull out the bottom plate 910, insert the second moxa stick 960 into the second nail seat 911, then ignite the second moxa stick 960, insert the bottom plate 910 into the storage cavity 950, and close the sealing cover 920.

[0076] The patient lies on the bed with their head placed on the moxibustion pillow 900. Two sets of reed tubes 100 are placed at the patient's ears. The smoke generated by the second moxa cone 960 is discharged through the first smoke outlet 930 and the second smoke outlet 941, and the reed tubes 100 can then discharge the smoke into the patient's ear canal.

[0077] In this embodiment, rubber rings 600 are fitted onto the first assembly ring 320, the second assembly ring 420, and the third assembly ring 520. The rubber rings 600 enable interference fit of the assembly rings, achieving interference positioning for the assembly of each module. Grooves for the rubber rings 600 are pre-drilled at the assembly points of each component. A sheath 110 is fitted onto the rear end of the reed tube 100, and the sheath 110 interference fits through the insertion hole 210. The outer diameter of the insertion hole 210 is larger than the outer diameter of the reed tube 100 to accommodate different reed tubes 100. To eliminate the gap between the reed tube 100 and the insertion hole 210, the sheath 110 is added. The sheath 110 is manufactured by wrapping cotton cloth or non-woven fabric around the end of the reed tube 100, with the number of wraps depending on the outer diameter of the reed tube 100. The elastic clip 220 includes a fixed section and an elastic section. The fixed section is attached to the inner wall of the front end cover 200 by screws, and the elastic section is inclined, with its outer end pressing against the outside of the reed tube 100. The downward pressure of the elastic section is limited and will not damage the reed tube 100. The inner wall of the main tube 400 is provided with a first metal cover 430, and the inner wall of the rear end cover 500 is provided with a second metal cover 530. Since the main tube 400 and the rear end cover 500 are the burning areas of the moxa stick, and the internal temperature is high, the first metal cover 430 and the second metal cover 530 can provide isolation and protection; the first metal cover 430 and the second metal cover 530 are, for example, made of aluminum.
