As shown in fig. 1 to 6, the acupuncture device includes a driving means 1 and an acupuncture needle 2. Drive arrangement 1 is magnetic drive device, including base 11, be fixed with vertical telescopic link 12 on the base 11, the upper end of vertical telescopic link 12 is connected with horizontal telescopic link 13, the free end of horizontal telescopic link 13 is connected with fixing base 14, the lower part of fixing base 14 is fixed with driving motor 15, driving motor 15's output shaft fixedly connected with lower part open-ended sleeve 18, the inside wall of sleeve 18 is provided with the relative second permanent magnet 17 of a pair of opposite polarity magnetic poles, sleeve 18 upper portion inboard is provided with second electro-magnet 18. The acupuncture needle 2 includes an abutting portion 21, a shank 22 and a needle body 23 connected in this order, the shank 22 and the needle body 23 are integrally formed, and the abutting portion 21 and the shank 22 are connected by an elastic member 24. Specifically, the docking portion 21 includes a connection cylinder 211 and a fixing frame 212 integrally formed on an upper portion of the connection cylinder 211, the elastic member 24 is a cylindrical body with a circular cross section and made of rubber, the elastic member 24 is sleeved on an upper portion of the needle handle 22 and fixedly connected with the needle handle 22, and the connection cylinder 211 is sleeved on the elastic member 24 and fixedly connected with the elastic member 24. The first permanent magnet 213 is a multi-pole magnet, and two opposite faces of the six faces are a pair of magnetic poles. A torque sensor and a pulling pressure sensor (not shown in the figure) are further arranged between the outer peripheral surface of the elastic component 24 and the inner surface of the connecting cylinder 211, the controller 3 is fixed on the vertical telescopic rod 12, a touch screen (not shown in the figure) is arranged on a shell of the controller 3, the controller 3 is in communication connection with the torque sensor and the pulling pressure sensor in a wireless communication mode (such as WiFi, Bluetooth and the like), and the controller 3 is connected with the second electromagnet 18 and the driving motor 15 through electric wires. It is understood that the first permanent magnet 213 and the second permanent magnet 17 may be made of a material such as rubidium, iron, boron, samarium, cobalt, or alnico. The first permanent magnet 213 may be a multi-pole magnet formed by a magnetizing technique, or may be a multi-pole magnet formed by joining a plurality of magnets. In addition, a torque sensor and a pull pressure sensor may also be provided between the resilient member 24 and the needle shaft 22.
In use, the operator inserts a part of the needle body 23 of the acupuncture needle 2 into the acupuncture point of the human body, and adjusts the lengths of the vertical stretching rod 12 and the horizontal stretching rod 13 to cover the sleeve 16 outside the butt portion 21 (see fig. 6). The magnetic poles at the left and right ends of the first permanent magnet 213 respectively generate magnetic attraction with the magnetic poles opposite to the second permanent magnet 17 in the sleeve 16. An operator inputs a corresponding instruction through a touch screen of the controller 3, the controller 3 controls an output shaft of the driving motor 15 to rotate in a reciprocating manner, the sleeve 16 and the output shaft of the driving motor 15 synchronously rotate in a reciprocating manner, under the action of magnetic adsorption between the first permanent magnet 213 and the second permanent magnet 17, the butt joint part 21 rotates around the axis of the acupuncture needle 2 and transmits power to the needle handle 22 and the needle body 23 through the elastic component 24, so that the needle handle 22 and the needle body 23 rotate around the axis, and the twisting operation of the acupuncture needle 2 is realized. At the same time, the controller 3 controls the second electromagnet 18 to be switched on and switched off, the second electromagnet 18 generates a magnetic field with constantly changing direction, the second electromagnet 18 and the first permanent magnet 213 generate alternately changing adsorption force and repulsion force, under the action of the alternately changing adsorption force and repulsion force, the butt joint part 21 reciprocates along the axis of the acupuncture needle 2 and transmits push-pull force to the needle handle 22 and the needle body 23 through the elastic component 24, so that the needle handle 22 and the needle body 23 reciprocate along the axis, and the insertion and lifting operation of the acupuncture needle 2 is realized. The torque sensor and the pulling pressure sensor respectively detect a torque value and a pulling pressure value between the elastic component 24 and the connecting cylinder 211 in real time and send the torque value and the pulling pressure value to the controller 3, the controller 3 displays the received torque value and the received pulling pressure value to an operator through a touch screen of the controller, the operator can adjust the driving force of the driving motor 15 and the magnetic field intensity of the second electromagnet 18 according to the torque value and the pulling pressure value, so that the torque value and the pulling pressure value between the elastic component 24 and the connecting cylinder 211 are in a proper range, and the acupuncture needle 2 can generate soft and effective stimulation on acupuncture points. It is understood that the driving unit 1 can independently drive the acupuncture needle 2 to rotate around the axis, and can also independently drive the acupuncture needle 2 to move along the axis. The controller 3 may also automatically adjust the driving force of the driving motor 15 and the magnetic field strength of the second electromagnet 18 according to a preset torque target range and a pull-up pressure target range and the received torque value and pull-up pressure value.
Because the acting force is transmitted between the driving device 1 and the acupuncture needle 2 by adopting the magnetic force action, the acting force between the driving device 1 and the acupuncture needle 2 becomes relatively soft, the butt joint part 21 is connected with the needle handle 22 by adopting the elastic component 24, the acting force between the butt joint part 21 and the needle handle 22 can be buffered, the stimulation force of the needle body 23 on the acupuncture points of the human body becomes soft, and the condition that the acting force between the needle body 23 and the human tissue at the corresponding acupuncture points is suddenly increased to cause the discomfort of the human body and even the injury of the human tissue at the moment that the driving device 1 applies the twisting force and/or the push-pull force on the butt joint part 21 is avoided. Since there is a small variation in voltage during actual use, and thus the driving force of the driving device has a small fluctuation, the elastic member 24 also serves to alleviate the fluctuation in driving force caused by the voltage fluctuation.
The elastic component 24 is a cylindrical body with an annular cross section, which not only ensures the matching area of the elastic component 24 with the connecting cylinder 211 and the needle handle 22, ensures uniform stress and reliable connection, but also facilitates the assembly and connection of the elastic component 24 with the connecting cylinder 211 and the needle handle 22.
It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the elastic member 24 is a cylindrical body with an annular cross section, which is only a preferred arrangement, and those skilled in the art can adjust the arrangement as required, for example, the elastic member 24 may include a plurality of cylindrical bodies with a sector annular cross section, the plurality of cylindrical bodies are uniformly distributed around the needle shaft 22 and fixedly connected with the outer circumferential surface of the needle shaft 22 and the inner circumferential surface of the connecting cylinder 211, and the elastic member 24 may also be a spring or other suitable elastic structure. In addition, the elastic member 24 is made of rubber, which is a specific arrangement and can be adjusted by those skilled in the art according to the needs, for example, the elastic member 24 can be made of elastic material such as silicone rubber, thermoplastic elastomer, etc. In a further possible embodiment, the two second permanent magnets 17 can also be replaced by two electromagnets.
In another possible embodiment, the fixing bracket 212 and the first permanent magnet 213 may not be provided on the connecting cylinder 211, and the connecting cylinder 211 itself serves as a permanent magnet and magnetically moves the acupuncture needle 2 around and/or along its axis with the driving unit 1.
A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 7 and 8. Wherein, fig. 7 is a structural view of an acupuncture device according to a second embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 8 is an enlarged view of a portion B of fig. 7.

In the using process, the controller 3 controls the six pairs of first electromagnets 19 to be sequentially electrified for a set time (for example, 0.5s) according to a specific rule and then to be powered off, so that each pair of the six pairs of first electromagnets 19 sequentially generates a magnetic field, and magnetic poles at the left and right ends of the first permanent magnet 213 sequentially generate magnetic adsorption force with the different pairs of electromagnets 19, thereby realizing the purpose of driving the acupuncture needle 2 to rotate around the axis.
Through the arrangement, a driving motor is not needed to drive the sleeve 16 to rotate, and a rotating magnetic field can be generated only by controlling the on-off of the first electromagnets 19, so that the acupuncture needle 2 is driven to rotate around the axis thereof through the magnetic force, the structure is simplified, and the volume is reduced. With such an arrangement, the controller 3 can control the two opposing first electromagnets 19 to be alternately energized to swing the acupuncture needle 2 between the two opposing first electromagnets 19, and can also control the plurality of first electromagnets 19 in different directions to sequentially turn on and off points to swing the acupuncture needle 2 in multiple directions. In addition, the controller 3 can adjust the frequency of the oscillation and vibration of the acupuncture needle 2 by controlling the on-off frequency of the first electromagnet 19, and can also adjust the amplitude of the oscillation and vibration of the acupuncture needle 2 by controlling the magnitude of the current passed through the first electromagnet 19, thereby achieving the required needle waking effect for different situations.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the provision of six pairs of first electromagnets 19 on the inner side wall of the sleeve 16 is only one specific arrangement and may be modified as required by those skilled in the art, for example, five, seven, eight or more pairs of first electromagnets 19 may be provided on the inner side wall of the sleeve 16.
In the above embodiment, the driving device 1 is a magnetic driving device, which is only a preferred embodiment, and can be adjusted by those skilled in the art as required, for example, in another possible embodiment, the driving motor 15 is installed at the lower portion of the fixing base 14, the electric push rod is fixed on the output shaft of the driving motor 15, and the electric push rod is connected with the butt joint portion 21 of the acupuncture needle 2 in a snap-fit manner, so that the acupuncture needle 2 is driven to rotate around the axis thereof and move along the axis thereof by the driving motor 15 and the electric push rod, respectively. However, the degree of stimulation of the acupuncture needle 2 to the acupuncture points of the human body is not as gentle as the above-described embodiment, and the structure of the driving device is large in size and relatively complicated.
In another possible embodiment, the second electromagnet 18 is not provided in the sleeve 16, and only the second permanent magnet 17 or the first electromagnet 19 is provided, and the rotation of the needle 2 about its axis is realized by the magnetic force with the first permanent magnet 213.
