Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Quantity of substance
If conventional moxibustion therapy is used, then the treatment method is simple and easy to operate, but the absorption rate of medicine is low
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements nesting by placing the medicine liquid evaporation chamber inside the jar body, and the adsorption chamber surrounding the jar body. The microwave generator and infrared heating device are positioned within the jar body structure. This nested arrangement allows multiple functional components to occupy overlapping spatial volumes, increasing the absorption rate of medicine through combined therapies while maintaining a compact overall device structure that does not significantly increase operational complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The moxibustion jar is designed with multi-functionality by integrating several therapeutic functions into a single device: the jar body generates medicine vapor through heating, the adsorption chamber creates negative pressure for enhanced absorption, the microwave generator provides additional heating, and the infrared heating device offers thermal therapy. This universal design allows one device to perform multiple therapeutic functions simultaneously, improving medicine absorption rate without requiring multiple separate devices or complex operational procedures
2Reliability
If medicine vapor is generated and absorbed into the skin, then therapeutic efficacy is improved, but the pressure control system adds device complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback control by using a pressure sensor to detect the pressure inside the jar body and a controller to adjust the opening degree of the pressure control valve based on the detected pressure. This feedback mechanism ensures that the pressure remains within a safe and effective range, improving therapeutic efficacy by maintaining optimal conditions for medicine vapor absorption while automatically managing the pressure control system to minimize operational complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The pressure control system operates autonomously by using the pressure sensor to automatically detect pressure conditions and the controller to automatically adjust the pressure control valve. This self-service mechanism eliminates the need for manual pressure monitoring and adjustment by the operator, improving therapeutic efficacy through consistent pressure control while reducing the operational complexity burden on the user

AI summary
A moxibustion jar and a medicinal moxibustion device are provided. The moxibustion jar comprises a jar body (10), with a first opening (11) being formed on the bottom of the jar body (10); and, an adsorption chamber (20) which is arranged on the jar body (10). The adsorption chamber (20) is configured to absorb the jar body (10) onto an object to be cauterized, and the jar body (10) is configured to generate medicine vapor and allow the medicine vapor to reach the first opening (11) to come into contact with the object to be cauterized. In this moxibustion jar, by providing the adsorption chamber (20) on the jar body (10), the moxibustion jar can be absorbed onto the surface of the skin of a human body. On this basis, a medicine liquid evaporation device (30) evaporates a liquid medicine to form medicine vapor, so that the gas pressure inside the jar body (10) is increased and the absorption rate of the skin is thus improved. Moreover, the moxibustion jar and the medicinal moxibustion device are simple and clean, and have few operation limitations and better therapeutic effects.
