However, the above-described hot moxibustion device 200 has the following problems.

That is, in the above-mentioned conventional hot moxibustion instrument 200, the air inside the main body 201 generates a convection in the vertical direction as the stick moxibustion 220 burns.
Since only the ventilation hole 204 is provided in the vicinity of the combustion part, there is a problem that the air in the main body 201 having the convection in the vertical direction is difficult to ventilate with the outside air through the ventilation hole 204. . For this reason, the burning of the stick moxibustion 220 is not performed well, and the burning temperature and the burning time vary, so that a desired warm moxibustion effect cannot be obtained.

After the moxibustion 220 is inserted into the through hole 206 of the moxibustion agent support member 205, the distance between the lower end of the moxibustion 220 and the lower surface of the fixing member 208 is appropriately adjusted. It is necessary to adjust the position.

In this case, it is not possible to obtain the desired moxibustion effect.

Further, it is necessary to remove the ash generated by burning the stick moxibustion 220. However, since the generated ash is easily disintegrated, it is not easy to remove the ash. The moxibustion appliance 200 and the like will be soiled.
Further, when a shock is applied to the moxibustion appliance 200, there is a concern that the remaining ash of the fire collapses and the user gets burned at a low temperature.

In addition, when the hot moxibustion device 200 is pressed against the affected part for a long time or when the hand is pressed against a hard-to-reach back or the like, this is difficult to perform.
It was by no means easy to use. In addition, since the stick moxibustion 220 used is long,
Must be used protruding from the top of the
Therefore, there is also a problem that the moxibustion appliance 200 becomes unstable.

[0014] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and it is possible to satisfactorily burn a moxibustion agent in a moxibustion instrument, and to easily install the moxibustion agent at an appropriate position. The aim is to provide easy-to-use hot moxibustion instruments.

0 cannot be removed from the lid 20. 6 and 7 are cross-sectional views taken along line BB in FIG.

Next, the warm moxibustion instrument 1 configured as described above
Will be described. First, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the moxibustion agent 50 is held at the lower end of the bolt 43 of the moxibustion agent holding means 40, and the lower end of the moxibustion agent 50 is ignited. As shown in the figure, the moxibustion agent 50 has a through hole 51 having a diameter slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the bolt 43 at the center thereof.
When the bolt 43 is inserted into the through hole 51, the hot moxibustion agent 50 is screwed and held. In the hot moxibustion instrument 1 of this example, since the hot moxibustion agent 50 is screwed and held on the bolt 43 in this manner, the hot moxibustion agent 50 is firmly held by the bolt 43 and is prevented from falling off. Thus, it is possible to prevent the user from suffering a low-temperature burn due to the dropped moxibustion agent 50 as in the related art.

Next, after the lid 20 and the main body 10 are aligned with each other so that the marks 17 and 29 attached to them coincide with each other, the engaging projection 25 is inserted into the vertical groove 16.
The cover 20 is engaged with the main body 10, and thereafter, the cover 20 is horizontally rotated relative to the main body 10. As a result, the engagement projection 25 is locked in the annular groove 15 and the lid 20
Cannot be removed from the main body 10, and the lid 20 is prevented from being detached from the main body 10 due to some beat.

Then, the hot moxibustion instrument 1 prepared as described above is pressed against the affected part from its lower surface. Thereby, the heat of combustion of the moxibustion agent 50 is transmitted to the affected part through the lower opening of the main body 10 and the ash fall prevention means 14, and the affected part is warmed, so that the desired moxibustion effect is achieved. In this example, since a wire mesh is used for the ash fall prevention means 14,
The heat of combustion of the moxibustion agent 50 is transmitted to the affected part without any problem.

When the moxibustion agent 50 burns in the main body 10, an updraft is generated in the main body 10 in accordance with the combustion. In this way, when the updraft is generated in the main body 10, the air required for combustion is covered by the lid. The air is exhausted to the outside through the second ventilation hole 23 and the third ventilation hole 24 formed in the body 20 and the ventilation adjustment hole 33 formed in the ventilation adjustment lid 30, while the main body 10 is exhausted.
External air flows into the main body 10 from the first ventilation hole 13 formed in the main body 10. Thereby, the combustion of the hot moxibustion agent 50 is favorably maintained.

Further, in this hot moxibustion instrument 1, the ventilation control lid 3
By rotating 0 horizontally relative to the lid 20,
The degree of communication between the third ventilation hole 24 and the ventilation adjustment hole 33 can be adjusted. By performing such adjustment, the air exhausted from the third ventilation hole 24 and the ventilation adjustment hole 33 can be adjusted. The amount and the amount of air flowing into the body 10 can be adjusted. Thus, according to the hot moxibustion instrument 1, the combustion state of the hot moxibustion agent 50 can be adjusted by adjusting the degree of communication between the third ventilation hole 24 and the ventilation control hole 33, and the temperature and the combustion thereof can be adjusted. Time can be managed.

The third ventilation hole 24 and the ventilation adjusting hole 33
When the degree of communication with the moxibustion agent 50 is adjusted by the rotation restricting means 34, the adjustment range is limited so as to be in a range from about half-open to full-open. There is no worry that the fire will be extinguished.

Further, since the moxibustion agent 50 is held by the bolt 43, the holding position of the moxibustion agent 50 can be kept constant when the moxibustion instrument 1 is repeatedly used. In other words, The distance between the affected part and the hot moxibustion agent 50 can always be kept constant, and the same hot moxibustion effect can be reliably obtained every time.

The hot moxibustion agent 50 generates ash by burning, and the generated ash is likely to collapse. Therefore, it is highly likely that the ash will fall. However, in the hot moxibustion instrument 1 of this embodiment, the ash fall prevention means 14 is provided. Therefore, if the burned ash falls or if the hot moxibustion agent 50 falls off the bolt 43, these are received by the ash fall prevention means 14. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the user's hands and the affected part from being stained by the fallen ash.
0 prevents the user from suffering a low-temperature burn.

The center of the lower surface of the engaging portion 21 and the center of the bottom of the fitting recess 22 are respectively provided with recesses 26 and 2.
7, the lid 20 and the washer 4
Since the contact area with the nuts 1 and 42 is reduced and the washer 45 is provided between the nuts 44 and 46, heat is radiated from the washer 45, and the heat of combustion of the moxibustion agent 50 is transmitted to the lid 20. It has become difficult. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the lid 20 from being partially carbonized or burnt out due to the heat of combustion of the moxibustion agent 50.

In fixing the hot moxibustion instrument 1 to the affected area, it is convenient to fix the instrument using a fixing belt 60 as shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, the fixing belt 60 has an engaging portion 61 having a mounting hole 61a at the center thereof, into which the main body 10 is inserted and the flange 12 is engaged.
And a pair of strips 62, 62 extending on both sides from the engagement portion 61, and engagement means 63 formed on both ends of the strips 62, 62, respectively, and capable of being engaged with each other. And In this embodiment, synthetic leather is used for the engaging portion 61, cloth is used for the band 62, and magic tape (registered trademark) is used for the engaging means 63.

According to the fixing belt 60, the hot moxibustion instrument 1 can be attached and fixed to the affected part in a manner as shown in FIG. That is, first, the main body 11 is inserted into the mounting hole 61a of the engaging portion 61 of the fixed belt 60, and the engaging portion 61 is locked by the flange portion 12. Then, the moxibustion instrument 1 is placed on the affected part of the user, and a pair of belts 62, 6 of the fixing belt 60 are placed.
