Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of moxibustion therapy technology, specifically relating to a moxibustion robotic arm. Background Technology
[0002] Moxibustion, a type of moxibustion 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. This stimulates the flow of Qi (vital energy) to regulate disordered physiological and biochemical functions, thereby achieving the purpose of disease prevention and treatment. Different moxibustion methods exist depending on the needs, such as suspended moxibustion, sparrow-pecking moxibustion, and rotary moxibustion. Suspended moxibustion involves holding the lit end of the moxa stick 1.5-3 cm away from the acupoint or area to be treated. Sparrow-pecking moxibustion involves moving the moxa stick up and down continuously, like a bird pecking at food. Rotary moxibustion requires placing the moxa stick 1.5-3 cm above the skin and then rotating it clockwise or counterclockwise.
[0003] Currently, most existing moxibustion robotic arms have a relatively complex connection structure between the robotic arm and the moxibustion head during use. Because the residual ash inside needs to be cleaned, disassembling the moxibustion head is quite troublesome and not conducive to quick disassembly and cleaning. Therefore, we propose a new type of moxibustion robotic arm. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a moxibustion robotic arm to solve the existing problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a moxibustion robotic arm, comprising a worktable, a connecting end, and a moxibustion head. The top of the worktable is provided with a robotic arm body, and the connecting end is movably connected to the end of the robotic arm body. A slot is provided at the end of the connecting end away from the robotic arm body. The inner walls on both sides of the slot are provided with slots. A plug is inserted into the slot. One end of the plug is fixedly connected to the moxibustion head through a connecting block. Shrinkage grooves are provided on both sides of the plug engaging with the slots. A retractable plate is slidably disposed inside the shrinkage grooves. An arc-shaped inclined surface is provided on one side of the outer side of the plate.
[0006] Preferably, a connecting groove extending to the outside is provided on one side of the card slot, a pressing block is slidably disposed inside the connecting groove, and a push block is provided on the side of the pressing block extending into the card slot.
[0007] Preferably, limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the interior of the connecting groove and the contraction groove, and the limiting grooves are provided on opposite sides of the interior of the connecting groove and the contraction groove.
[0008] Preferably, both ends of the pressing block and the card plate are provided with limiting blocks, the limiting blocks are fixedly connected to the pressing block and the card plate respectively, and the limiting blocks extend into the interior of the corresponding limiting groove and are slidably connected to its inner wall.
[0009] Preferably, a return spring is provided inside the limiting groove opened on both sides of the inner wall of the connecting groove, and the two ends of the return spring are fixedly connected to the inner wall of one end of the limiting groove and the limiting block, respectively.
[0010] Preferably, the shrinkage groove is provided with a snap-fit spring, and the two ends of the snap-fit spring are fixedly connected to the inner wall of one end of the shrinkage groove and one side of the snap plate, respectively.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. By setting a connection end with a slot at the end of the robotic arm body, and cooperating with the connection block with a plug on the moxibustion head, the locking plates on both sides of the plug are locked into the slots on both sides of the slot under the action of the locking spring, thereby realizing the installation and fixation of the moxibustion head. When disassembling, the locking plates are squeezed by the pressing block and the pushing block, so that they retract into the shrinkage groove, thereby realizing the purpose of releasing the locking state, so as to facilitate the quick disassembly and cleaning of the moxibustion head. This design greatly improves the convenience of disassembly and cleaning of the moxibustion head.
[0012] 2. By opening limiting grooves on both sides inside the connecting groove and the shrinking groove, and cooperating with the limiting blocks set at both ends of the pressing block and the clamping plate, the pressing block and the clamping plate are limited, so as to avoid the pressing block and the clamping plate being pushed out under the action of the return spring and the clamping spring, thus preventing them from losing their function.

[0015] 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.
[0016] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution for a moxibustion robotic arm: including a workbench 1, a connecting end 3, and a moxibustion head 12. The top of the workbench 1 is provided with a robotic arm body 2. The end of the robotic arm body 2 is movably connected to the connecting end 3. A slot 4 is provided at the end of the connecting end 3 away from the robotic arm body 2. The inner walls of both sides of the slot 4 are provided with slots 5. A plug 14 is inserted into the slot 4. One end of the plug 14 is fixedly connected to the moxibustion head 12 through a connecting block 13. The plug 14 is connected to both sides of the slot 5 with a shrinkage groove 15. A retractable card plate 16 is slidably arranged inside the shrinkage groove 15. An arc-shaped inclined surface is provided on one side of the card plate 16.
[0017] Specifically, a connecting groove 6 extending to the outside is provided on one side of the inner side of the card slot 5, a pressing block 7 is slidably provided inside the connecting groove 6, and a push block 8 is provided on one side of the pressing block 7 extending into the inner side of the card slot 5.
[0018] Specifically, limiting grooves 9 are provided on both sides of the interior of the connecting groove 6 and the contraction groove 15. The limiting grooves 9 are provided on opposite sides of the interior of the connecting groove 6 and the contraction groove 15.
[0019] Specifically, both ends of the pressing block 7 and the card plate 16 are provided with limit blocks 10. The limit blocks 10 are fixedly connected to the pressing block 7 and the card plate 16 respectively, and the limit blocks 10 extend into the interior of the corresponding limit groove 9 and slide to connect with its inner wall.
[0020] Specifically, a reset spring 11 is provided inside the limiting groove 9 opened on both sides of the inner wall of the connecting groove 6. The two ends of the reset spring 11 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of one end of the limiting groove 9 and the limiting block 10, respectively.
[0021] Specifically, a snap-fit spring 17 is provided inside the shrinkage groove 15, and the two ends of the snap-fit spring 17 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of one end of the shrinkage groove 15 and one side of the snap plate 16, respectively.
[0022] In this embodiment, during use, the plug 14 is inserted into the slot 4 of the connecting end 3, and the locking plate 16 is engaged with the inside of the slot 5, so that the moxibustion head 12 is fixedly connected to the connecting end 3 of the robotic arm body 2 by a locking mechanism. When it is necessary to disassemble the moxibustion head 12 for cleaning, the pressing blocks 7 on both sides of the connecting end 3 are pressed, causing the push block 8 to move into the slot 5. At the same time, the limiting blocks 10 at both ends of the pressing block 7 compress the reset spring 11, and the push block 8 pushes the locking plate 16 in the slot 5 towards the retraction groove 15. The internal contraction simultaneously compresses the locking spring 17 until the locking plate 16 is fully retracted into the contraction groove 15, thereby releasing the locking mechanism. Then, the plug 14 is pulled out to disassemble the moxibustion head 12, facilitating the cleaning of the ash inside the moxibustion head 12. After cleaning, the plug 14 is inserted into the slot 4, so that the locking plate 16 is aligned with the slot 5 and snapped in, thereby fixing the moxibustion head 12 in place and ensuring its stability during use. This design greatly improves the convenience of disassembling and cleaning the moxibustion head 12.
