TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an acupuncture and moxibustion model for assisting learning by displaying the position and distribution of meridians and acupuncture points of a human body directly to a novice learner of acupuncture and moxibustion treatment, and displaying and displaying this model. The present invention relates to a control device that controls operation.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a textbook for acupuncture and moxibustion treatment, China 40
For example, "Chinese Acupuncture Dictionary" left in the history of 00 years
Many documents are known, and based on these documents, commentary books such as "Introduction to the Meridian Acupuncture Points" (edited by the Toyo Therapy School Association, published by Ichido Nihonsha) are known. In many such literatures, the meridians and positions of acupuncture points contained in the human body and their distribution are displayed on the human body as basic knowledge, and the meanings of the meridians and acupuncture points and their flow (infusion) are explained in detail. There is.

The "meridian" of the meridian means the meridian, and the "meridian" means the one that connects the meridian to the meridian or the thin meridian other than the meridian, which was empirically observed and devised in ancient China. It is a thing.
There are twelve main things that are called the orthodox twelve medal veins, and there are other twelve meridians and those that are called the odd meridian eight veins. The choroid includes the main choroid called the fifteen choroid, which is a combination of the twelve sutra choroids, the venous vein, the command vein, and the spleen of the spleen, and other small chords. In addition, there are other things called the twelve meridian muscles and the twelve skin parts, which are distributed in muscle and skin. In addition, the acupuncture points are so-called "pots" on the body surface,
In terms of acupuncture and moxibustion, in principle, it exists in all parts of the whole body and belongs to the meridian pulse, but there are some that do not belong to the meridian pulse, and there are 361 total acupuncture points.

Although the above-mentioned meridians and acupuncture points are conceptually understood by explaining where they exist and are distributed in the human body in the literature, in the actual human body, each person's height,
The meridians, the positions of acupuncture points, and the distribution state are all slightly different, so that the weights are all different, and therefore they cannot be treated without actual experience in applying acupuncture to the meridians and acupuncture points. . Therefore, various proposals have been made to facilitate understanding of the positions and distribution states of the meridians and acupuncture points before going through such practical experience.

As an example, the invention of the "pot position detector" disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-332210 (publication 1) is known. In this publication, a stretchable base material is put on a human body, and a reference mark to be placed on a specific portion of the human body on the base material, and an instruction to indicate a pot position when the reference mark is placed on the specific portion of the human body. The invention of a crucible position detecting tool formed by providing a mark is disclosed.

In this embodiment, a model doll of a human body of a predetermined size and a retractable body suit are prepared, and the model doll shows the positions of the navel, the left and right ribs, the left and right hip bones in advance, and the upper can, It is assumed that there are vase (acupuncture point) positions such as middle can, Liangmen, Yindu, lower can, center, abdomen, and giant. The body suit is equipped with reference marks corresponding to the navel, left and right ribs, left and right hip bones, and instruction marks for indicating the positions corresponding to the above-mentioned pot positions.The body suit was extended and put on the model doll. At this time, if the reference mark is matched with the planned position, the hole-shaped instruction mark corresponds to the pot position.

As another example, registered utility model publication No. 30
What was disclosed as a device of "a pot position display device" in 41570 (publication 2) is known. This display device consists of a flat double card holding member and a card inserted between them.On the front and back of the card holding member, many major pot positions of the human body and meridian lines connecting the pot positions are displayed. And, there is a hole at each pot position. Then, prepare a plurality of cards that display optotypes corresponding to various symptoms of each part of the body in advance, select one of them according to the symptoms, and insert it into the card holding member. The optotype position that is displayed shows the pot position to be treated according to the symptom.

[0008]

By the way, although not shown as the above-mentioned conventional technique, a large number of acupuncture points (pots) existing in various parts of the human body are placed on the surface of the human body model as small lamps (LEDs). Those shown in are already on the market. This commercial doll model is a simple one that exemplifies some of the typical acupuncture points, and it is for mere demonstration that all the provided acupuncture points are turned on at the same time, or acupuncture points at specific positions can be turned on. Is. Therefore, such a doll model cannot be used as a teaching material for promoting learning of oriental medicine for full-scale acupuncture and moxibustion treatment.

As described above, the acupuncture points, which are said to have a total of 361 points, are given unique names for the acupuncture points at each position, but these acupuncture points are all important in terms of importance for each symptom. There is not equality, and there are things that do not belong to the meridian even if they belong to the meridian in principle, but comprehensively learn about the relationship between acupuncture points and meridians, the therapeutic effect on each symptom of each acupuncture point, etc. In order to do so, it takes a lot of effort and time only with conventional textbooks. Therefore, it is required to provide a means for directly learning for acupuncture and moxibustion treatment.

Even if a small lamp of the doll model for demonstration is used instead of the instruction mark displayed on the body suit to display the position of the acupuncture points on the doll model of the above-mentioned publication 1, the relation with the meridian is not displayed. When the number of lamps is increased for the purpose of general learning, it is difficult in a short time to know specifically which is the acupuncture point taught in the textbook. Further, the pot position display device of Publication 2 is the same as the display of the meridian in the textbook, and it is not proposed to display the meridian on the doll model.

In view of the above-mentioned conventional teaching material for learning acupuncture and moxibustion treatment, the present invention includes an optical display element representing acupuncture points sufficient for learning acupuncture and moxibustion treatment on the body surface of a doll model, and has a large number of acupuncture points and acupuncture points. It is an object of the present invention to provide an acupuncture and moxibustion model that can stereoscopically display the meridians to which these acupuncture points belong on a doll model and learn the positions and relationships of the acupuncture points and meridians with a feeling close to that of actual experience.

Another object of the present invention is to send a control signal so as to control the blinking of the optical display element of the acupuncture points provided in the acupuncture and moxibustion model so that the acupuncture points or the acupuncture points indicating the meridians are sequentially blinked. To provide a display control device for the acupuncture and moxibustion model.

[0013]

As a means for solving the above problems, the present invention provides an optical display element representing acupuncture points on the body surface of a doll model corresponding to the positions of acupuncture points. An acupuncture and moxibustion model in which a connecting line corresponding to the meridian to which it belongs is buried under the body surface to connect the optical display elements, and the optical display element at a predetermined position is blinked by a signal from the outside to make it possible to identify the acupuncture points or the meridians related to them. That is the structure.

As a means for solving the above-mentioned second problem, the second invention is an optical display arranged to represent acupuncture points on the body surface of the doll model in order to control the acupuncture and moxibustion model having the above-mentioned configuration. Connect the elements with a connection line laid under the body surface, send a control signal to this connection line to control the optical display element to blink, and display the names of acupuncture points and the meridian name to which the acupuncture points belong. Display input means for displaying an input signal for displaying the acupuncture point, or the meridian to which the acupuncture point belongs to by selecting either the displayed acupuncture point name or the meridian name displayed above, and the input signal. Based on the above, the display control device for the acupuncture and moxibustion model is configured to blink the optical display element of the acupuncture point so as to represent the desired acupuncture point or meridian.

The acupuncture and moxibustion model of the first invention is a three-dimensional model of the entire human body, and its size is easy to handle, and it is preferable that the acupuncture and moxibustion model has an appropriate size such that each part of the body can be easily seen when learning the actual practice of acupuncture and moxibustion treatment. . A large number of optical display elements representing acupuncture points are arranged on the body surface, and these optical display elements are LEDs.
Any element that can virtually form an acupuncture point, such as a lamp or an optical fiber, may be used.

The optical display elements corresponding to these acupuncture points are connected to each meridian group by a connecting line buried below the body surface. Then, the optical display element of each acupuncture point is individually lit by an external signal, or the optical display elements of a plurality of acupuncture points belonging to each meridian are sequentially blinked so that the acupuncture points or meridians can be identified.

The acupuncture and moxibustion model control device of the second invention blinks the optical display element representing the acupuncture points arranged in the acupuncture and moxibustion model, so that the name of the acupuncture points or the meridian names displayed on the screen of the display / instructing means. When any one of the above is selected and the input signal is sent to the control circuit, the control signal causes the optical display element of a predetermined acupuncture point to blink for a predetermined time at a predetermined blinking interval.
