Description

本発明は、温灸器に関するものであり、特に、棒灸を用いた温灸器に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a warm water heater, and more particularly to a warm water heater using a stick.

古来より、灸という治療方法が存在している。灸とは、経穴(つぼ)と呼ばれる体の特定部位に対して温熱刺激を与え血行を促進し、病気や肩こり、腰痛などを軽減する治療方法である。灸には、皮膚の上に直接熱源を据えて灸痕を残す有痕灸と、熱源と皮膚との間に緩衝物を挿入するなどして灸痕を残さない無痕灸とがあり、現在では、無痕灸が最も普及している。無痕灸の種類としては、例えば知熱灸、隔物灸、台座灸、棒灸、灸頭鍼などが存在する。これらの灸は、灸の形状や種類、手法などがそれぞれに異なっている。   Since ancient times, there has been a treatment method called acupuncture. Acupuncture is a treatment method that reduces the illness, stiff shoulders, and back pain by applying thermal stimulation to specific parts of the body called acupoints to promote blood circulation. There are two types of wrinkles: one with a heat source placed directly on the skin to leave a scar, and the other with no scars by inserting a buffer between the heat source and the skin. Then, untouched cocoons are most popular. As the types of untouched pots, there are, for example, intelligent heat pots, isolated pots, pedestal pots, stick pots, wharf pots, and the like. These cocoons have different shapes, types, and methods of the cocoons.

これらの無痕灸のうち、知熱灸と灸頭鍼とは、用いられる器具や手法が特殊であるため、専門の知識を持つ訓練された施術師によってのみ行われている。これに対し隔物灸、台座灸、棒灸は比較的簡単であり、訓練を積んでいない一般の人でも家庭内において気軽に私的利用することが可能である。   Of these unrecognized spears, the knowledgeable heat spears and the wharf spears are performed only by trained practitioners with specialized knowledge because of the special tools and techniques used. On the other hand, fences, pedestal rods, and rods are relatively simple, and even ordinary people who are not trained can easily use them at home.

その一例を紹介すると、隔物灸とは、図5(a)に示すように、にんにくや生姜、ビワの葉、塩などの隔物50を施術箇所52の上に置き、その上に熱源となる艾(もぐさ)51を置いて行われる。隔物50の薬効成分と艾51の温熱刺激によって、血行促進等を図る手法である。台座灸は、隔物灸の一種であり、図5(b)に示すように熱を緩衝する既製の台座53の上に艾54を配置する手法である。棒灸は、棒状の灸材を人手で施術箇所に近づけるか、若しくは図5(c)に示すような温灸器55を用いて棒状の灸材56を施術箇所57に近づけて施灸する手法である。   As an example, as shown in FIG. 5 (a), a septum is placed on a treatment area 52 with a septum 50 such as garlic, ginger, loquat leaves, salt, etc. as a heat source. It is done with mochi 51. This is a technique for promoting blood circulation by the medicinal component of the septum 50 and the thermal stimulation of the sputum 51. The pedestal basket is a kind of the fence, and is a method of arranging the ridge 54 on the ready-made pedestal 53 that buffers heat as shown in FIG. The rod rod is a technique in which a rod-shaped rod material is brought close to the treatment site by hand, or the rod-shaped rod material 56 is moved close to the treatment site 57 using a warming device 55 as shown in FIG. .

以上の従来技術は、当業者において当然として行われているものであり、出願人は、この従来技術が記載された文献を知見していない。   The above prior art is naturally performed by those skilled in the art, and the applicant is not aware of a document describing the prior art.

ところが、図5において例示した従来の隔物灸には、いくつかの問題があった。例えば、図5(a)の隔物灸では、施術途中で隔物50と施術箇所52との距離を変えることが難しかった。なぜなら、隔物50を持ち上げると、その上に置かれた艾51がこぼれ落ちる虞があるためである。従って、自由な温度調節が難しいという問題があった。また、台座灸では、台座53の裏面に粘着テープ等を配置して貼り付けることで、凹凸のある施術箇所52にも対応可能であるが、一旦貼り付けてしまうと、台座53の位置や厚みを変えることができないので、艾54の位置を変えることができなかった。よって、施術途中で臨機応変に温度調節をすることが難しいという問題があった。   However, the conventional fence shown in FIG. 5 has several problems. For example, in the case of FIG. 5A, it is difficult to change the distance between the piece 50 and the treatment location 52 during the treatment. This is because when the partition 50 is lifted, the ridge 51 placed thereon may spill out. Therefore, there is a problem that free temperature control is difficult. In addition, in the pedestal rod, it is possible to deal with an uneven treatment place 52 by placing and sticking an adhesive tape or the like on the back surface of the pedestal 53, but once it is pasted, the position and thickness of the pedestal 53 The position of the ridge 54 could not be changed. Therefore, there is a problem that it is difficult to adjust the temperature flexibly during the treatment.

一方、棒灸では、棒状の灸材56と被術者との距離を変えるだけで、極めて簡単に温度調節をすることが可能である。しかし、棒状の灸材56を直接支えるか、若しくは温灸器55の取手58等を支える人手が必要であるため、手を放すと温度調節ができなかった。そうすると、自宅で自分に施術する場合は、自分自身で支えなければいけないから疲れてしまい、長時間施灸できなかったし、他の施術者に施灸してもらう場合でも、施術者が現場を離れることができないので、そのあいだ他の施術箇所の施灸やマッサージを施すことができないという点が不便だった。   On the other hand, with a rod, it is possible to adjust the temperature extremely simply by changing the distance between the rod-shaped rod 56 and the subject. However, since it is necessary to support the rod-shaped rod 56 directly or to support the handle 58 of the warmer 55 and the like, the temperature cannot be adjusted when the hand is released. If you do this, you will be tired because you have to support yourself at home, and you will not be able to perform treatment for a long time, and even if you have other practitioners perform treatment, the practitioner will leave the site. It was inconvenient that it was not possible to perform the treatment and massage of other treatment areas during that time.

ここで、従来の温灸器55を使う場合は、取手58から手を離して本体部分59を施術箇所の上に直接載置する使い方も考えられる。しかし、従来の温灸器55は、本体部分59の大きさが比較的小さく、5cm程度であるため、灸材56を差し込むと安定が悪くなり倒れる虞があった。よって、手を離して施灸することには困難が予想された。また、仮に倒れなかったとしても、手を放すと温度調節を行うことはできないため、不便が残った。さらに、本体部59が小さいことから、手を離した状態では狭い範囲のみしか温められず、もっと広い範囲を簡単に温められる温灸器が望まれていた。   Here, when using the conventional hot water heater 55, the usage which puts the main-body part 59 directly on a treatment location by releasing | separating a hand from the handle 58 is also considered. However, in the conventional warmer 55, the size of the main body portion 59 is relatively small and is about 5 cm. Therefore, it was expected that it would be difficult to glaze with your hands off. Moreover, even if it did not fall down, it would be inconvenient because the temperature could not be adjusted if it was released. Furthermore, since the main body 59 is small, only a narrow range can be heated when the hand is released, and a warmer that can easily warm a wider range has been desired.

そこで、本発明は、上記の実状に鑑み、被術者の好みに応じた温度調節が簡単であり、かつ広い範囲を温めることができる温灸器の提供を課題とする。   In view of the above, the present invention has an object to provide a warmer that can easily adjust the temperature according to the preference of the subject and can warm a wide range.

本発明に係る温灸器は、「底面が開放された所定形状の蓄熱空間、該蓄熱空間の上方から棒状の灸材を前記蓄熱空間内に挿通可能な挿通孔、及び、該挿通孔とは異なる位置に設けられ前記蓄熱空間の内部と外部とを空気が行き来できる通気部、を備え、前記底面の開口部の幅がcm以上20cm以下である本体部と、前記挿通孔に棒状の灸材を自立した状態で保持すると共に、所望の挿入位置で支持することができる支持手段とを具備する」ことを特徴とする。   The hot water heater according to the present invention is “a heat storage space having a predetermined shape with an open bottom surface, an insertion hole through which a rod-shaped padding material can be inserted into the heat storage space from above the heat storage space, and the insertion hole is different. A ventilation portion that allows air to flow between the inside and the outside of the heat storage space, a body portion having a width of the opening of the bottom surface of not less than 20 cm and not more than 20 cm, and a rod-shaped saddle material in the insertion hole And a supporting means that can be held in a self-supporting state and can be supported at a desired insertion position ”.

ここで、「底面の開口部の幅」とは、開放されている底面の大きさを示しており、例えば底面の形状が円形ならば直径を、三角形なら底辺から頂角までの高さを、四角形なら対角線の長さまたは対角辺の長さを、五角形以上の多角形であれば何れか一つの対角線の長さを、それぞれ示している。   Here, “the width of the opening on the bottom surface” indicates the size of the open bottom surface. For example, if the shape of the bottom surface is circular, the diameter is the triangle. In the case of a quadrangle, the length of a diagonal line or the length of a diagonal side is shown, and in the case of a polygon of a pentagon or more, the length of any one diagonal line is shown.

また、「棒状の灸材」とは、艾などの灸用材料(灸材)を固めて棒状に形成したものを示す。「棒状の灸材」は、例えば円柱状で太さは15〜20mm、長さは約200mm程度のものが多く市販されているが、その形状や長さ、太さは特に上記数値に限定されない。   In addition, the “bar-shaped rod material” refers to a rod-shaped rod material such as a rod that is formed into a rod shape. “Bar-shaped rods” are commercially available, for example, in a columnar shape with a thickness of 15 to 20 mm and a length of about 200 mm. However, the shape, length, and thickness are not particularly limited to the above values. .

また、「本体部」の形状としては、例えばドーム状(お椀状)、円筒状、立方体状、直方体状、円錐状、三角錐状、等の全体形状が例示できる。その他、底面が開放された形状であれば、上述の形状には限定されないが、底面の開口部の幅は10cm以上,20cm以下である。底面の開口部の幅が10cm未満であると、施灸時の本体部の安定性が悪く、施灸中に倒れてしまう恐れがあるからである。また、開口部の幅が10cm未満であると、比較的狭い範囲しか温められないという問題も発生するので、10cm以上としている。一方、底面の開口部の幅は20cm以下とする。20cmを超えると、大きすぎることにより、人体の上に置くとはみ出してしまい、施灸時の本体部の安定性が悪くなる場合があるからである。また、20cmを超えると、人体等の施術箇所に底面を接触させた場合、本体部がはみ出して底面が閉塞されない虞もある。そうすると、熱や煙が隙間から漏れてしまい、施灸箇所を効率よく温められない場合が懸念されるので、20cm以下とする必要がある。   Further, examples of the shape of the “main body portion” include dome shapes (bowl shapes), cylindrical shapes, cube shapes, rectangular parallelepiped shapes, conical shapes, triangular pyramid shapes, and the like. In addition, as long as the bottom surface is open, the shape is not limited to the above shape, but the width of the opening on the bottom surface is 10 cm or more and 20 cm or less. This is because if the width of the opening on the bottom surface is less than 10 cm, the stability of the main body at the time of glazing is poor and the body may fall during glazing. Further, if the width of the opening is less than 10 cm, there is a problem that only a relatively narrow range can be heated. On the other hand, the width of the opening at the bottom is 20 cm or less. If it exceeds 20 cm, it will be too large, so that it will stick out when placed on the human body, and the stability of the body part during glazing may deteriorate. Moreover, when it exceeds 20 cm, when a bottom face is made to contact the treatment site | parts, such as a human body, there exists a possibility that a main-body part may protrude and a bottom face may not be obstruct | occluded. If it does so, since heat | fever and smoke will leak from a clearance gap and a case where a glazed location cannot be heated efficiently is concerned, it needs to be 20 cm or less.

なお、本発明の本体部において、「さらに、本体部の形状は、底面から挿通孔までの高さが、前記開口部の幅と略一致または小さいことを特徴とする」ものとしても良い。このように構成すると、底面を下側にして施術箇所に接触させた状態(=施灸時)で、本体部の安定性がより向上するので、倒れたり、熱や煙が逃げにくい効果的な温灸器を提供できる。   In the main body of the present invention, “the shape of the main body may be characterized in that the height from the bottom surface to the insertion hole is substantially equal to or smaller than the width of the opening”. When configured in this way, the stability of the main body is further improved with the bottom face down and in contact with the treatment site (when glazing). Can be provided.

また、「支持手段」の構成としては、例えば、挿通孔の内径と、棒状の灸材と略等しい(または若干小さい)内径として構成する場合が例示できる。このような挿通孔に棒状の灸材を挿入すると、孔の内壁に棒状の灸材が押し付けられ、摩擦で所望の位置に支持することができるからである。   Moreover, as a structure of a "support means", the case where it comprises, for example as an internal diameter of an insertion hole and an internal diameter substantially equal (or slightly small) with a rod-shaped rod material can be illustrated. This is because when a rod-shaped rod is inserted into such an insertion hole, the rod-shaped rod is pressed against the inner wall of the hole and can be supported at a desired position by friction.

また、挿通孔の上側に延びる円筒を設け、円筒の管壁に軸直角方向の孔を設ける構成も考えられる。当該孔にネジ溝を設け、このネジ溝に嵌合する雄ネジをはめ込み、円筒及び挿入孔に挿入された棒状の灸材を雄ネジの先端で圧接するのである。このように構成しても、所望の挿入位置で棒状の灸材を支持することが可能となる。   Further, a configuration in which a cylinder extending above the insertion hole is provided and a hole in a direction perpendicular to the axis is provided on the cylindrical tube wall is also conceivable. A screw groove is provided in the hole, a male screw fitted into the screw groove is fitted, and the rod-shaped rod material inserted into the cylinder and the insertion hole is brought into pressure contact with the tip of the male screw. Even if comprised in this way, it becomes possible to support a rod-shaped saddle material in a desired insertion position.

また、挿通孔の内側に、弾性部材を配置する方法も考えられる。挿通孔に棒状の灸材を挿入すると、棒状の灸材の形状に応じて弾性部材を弾性変形させる。そうすると、弾性部材が棒状の灸材を圧接するので、当該灸材を所望の挿入位置で支持することができる。   A method of arranging an elastic member inside the insertion hole is also conceivable. When a rod-shaped saddle member is inserted into the insertion hole, the elastic member is elastically deformed according to the shape of the rod-like saddle member. If it does so, since an elastic member press-contacts a rod-shaped brazing material, the said brazing material can be supported in a desired insertion position.

上記支持手段の構成は、何れか一つを採用しても良いし、何れかを組み合わせて採用してもよい。また、上記の方法は一例であるから、挿通孔に棒状の灸材を自立した状態で保持すると共に所望の挿入位置で支持することができるものであれば、上述の形態には限定されない。   Any one of the configurations of the support means may be employed, or any combination thereof may be employed. Moreover, since said method is an example, it will not be limited to the above-mentioned form, if it can hold | maintain the rod-shaped saddle material in the insertion hole in the self-supporting state, and can support it in a desired insertion position.

従って、本発明の温灸器によれば、支持手段が備えられているから、挿通孔に棒状の灸材を挿入すると、棒状の灸材を自立した状態で保持すると共に、所望の挿入位置で支持することができる。そして、棒状の灸材のうち、本体部の蓄熱空間内に挿入されている側の先端部に火を着け、底面を施術箇所に接触させる。そうすると、本体部は底面が開放された所定形状だから、棒状の灸材が発する熱は、蓄熱空間内に充満し、開放された底面から施術箇所に伝達される。   Therefore, according to the hot water heater of the present invention, since the supporting means is provided, when the rod-shaped rod material is inserted into the insertion hole, the rod-shaped rod material is held in a self-supporting state and is supported at a desired insertion position. can do. And among the rod-shaped saddle members, the front end portion of the main body portion that is inserted into the heat storage space is lit, and the bottom surface is brought into contact with the treatment site. If it does so, since the main-body part is the predetermined shape by which the bottom face was open | released, the heat | fever which a rod-shaped saddle material emits will be filled in the thermal storage space, and will be transmitted to the treatment location from the open bottom face.

ここで、本体部の底面の直径が10cm以上20cm以下であるので、手を離した状態でも本体部の安定性が失われないことに加え、熱や煙が施術箇所に効率的に与えられ、効果的な温灸を行える。さらに、支持手段が備えられているから、灸材を自立させた状態で所望の挿入位置に支持することができ、温度調節が簡単である。また、従来の温灸器などに比べて広い範囲に温熱を伝えることができる。また、本体部には、蓄熱空間の内部と外部とを空気が行き来できる通気部が備えられているから、施術箇所によって底面が閉塞された状態でも、蓄熱空間内で灸材の燃焼状態が維持される。さらに、底面が開放されていることから、温熱だけではなく、灸材の発する煙も施術箇所に当たる。   Here, since the diameter of the bottom surface of the main body is 10 cm or more and 20 cm or less, in addition to not losing the stability of the main body even in a state where the hand is released, heat and smoke are efficiently given to the treatment site, Effective warmth can be achieved. Furthermore, since the support means is provided, the brazing material can be supported at a desired insertion position in a self-standing state, and temperature adjustment is simple. In addition, heat can be transmitted over a wide range compared to conventional warmers. In addition, the main body is equipped with a ventilation part that allows air to flow between the inside and outside of the heat storage space, so that the burning state of the wood is maintained in the heat storage space even when the bottom surface is blocked by the treatment location. Is done. Furthermore, since the bottom surface is open, not only the heat but also smoke generated by the firewood hits the treatment site.

以上より、本発明の温灸器によれば、底面の直径が10cm以上なので、手を離した状態でも倒れにくく、安定して施灸を続けることができ、かつ、比較的広い範囲を温めることができる。また、底面の直径が20cm以下なので、持ち運ぶ際にもそれほど邪魔にならないし、熱や煙を効率的に施術箇所に伝えることができる。さらに、本発明の温灸器によれば、人手で棒状の灸材を支えたり、または取手等を介して温灸器を支えつづける必要がなく、ハンズフリーで棒灸を楽しむことができる。よって、長時間施灸しても疲れないし、他のお灸やマッサージとの同時進行が可能な効率的な施灸を可能とする。さらに、施術箇所と棒状の灸材との距離関係を任意に調節できるから、自由な温度調節が可能であり快適である。   As described above, according to the warmer of the present invention, since the diameter of the bottom surface is 10 cm or more, it is difficult to fall down even when the hand is released, the glazing can be continued stably, and a relatively wide range can be warmed. . Moreover, since the diameter of a bottom face is 20 cm or less, it does not become so obstructive when carrying, and heat and smoke can be efficiently transmitted to the treatment site. Furthermore, according to the warming device of the present invention, it is not necessary to manually support the rod-shaped rod material or to continue to support the warming device via a handle or the like, so that the rod can be enjoyed hands-free. Therefore, even if it is applied for a long time, it does not get tired, and efficient glazing that allows simultaneous progress with other acupuncture and massage is enabled. Furthermore, since the distance relationship between the treatment site and the rod-shaped saddle member can be arbitrarily adjusted, free temperature adjustment is possible and comfortable.

また、本発明の温灸器において、「前記本体部は、木質系材料より構成されている」ものとすることができる。   Further, in the hot water heater of the present invention, “the main body portion is made of a wood-based material”.

ここで、「木質系材料」とは、一本の原木から必要な寸法に切り出した無垢材だけではなく、小さな木の破片や薄い板を接着剤で貼りあわせた木質系の材料も含む主旨である。このような木質系の材料としては、例えば集成材、単板積層材、合板、パーティクルボード、ファイバーボード、等が例示できる。また、「木質系材料より構成されている」とは、一枚の木質系材料より全体形状を削りだして一体的に形成する構成のみならず、複数の小パーツを組み合わせて全体形状を構成する、所定の型枠に木片と接着剤とを流し込み本体部の全体形状を構成する、等の方法が例示できる。   Here, “woody material” is intended to include not only solid wood cut out to the required dimensions from a single raw wood, but also woody material in which small wooden pieces and thin plates are bonded together with an adhesive. is there. Examples of such a wood-based material include a laminated material, a single plate laminated material, a plywood, a particle board, a fiber board, and the like. In addition, “consisting of a wood-based material” means not only a configuration in which the entire shape is cut out from a single wood-based material but integrally formed, and a plurality of small parts are combined to configure the entire shape. A method such as pouring a piece of wood and an adhesive into a predetermined form and configuring the entire shape of the main body can be exemplified.

従って、本発明の温灸器によれば、施術箇所に接触する本体部が木質系材料で構成されている。木質系材料は、金属やセラミックス、樹脂等に比べて熱伝導率が低いから、断熱性能が高く、棒状の灸材が発する熱を効率よく蓄熱空間内に閉じ込めることができる。また、長時間施灸しても本体部が熱くなりすぎないので、皮膚に直接接触させて施術しても被術者に熱さを感じさせないという効果を有している。さらに、本体部を皮膚に直接接触させても、体の熱が本体部に奪われず、ヒンヤリと感じさせない。よって、施術を開始した直後でも被術者に冷たさを感じさせないので、冬場でも快適に施術できる温灸器を提供できる。   Therefore, according to the hot water heater of this invention, the main-body part which contacts a treatment location is comprised with the wooden material. Since the wood-based material has a lower thermal conductivity than metals, ceramics, resins, and the like, the heat insulating performance is high, and the heat generated by the rod-shaped brazing material can be efficiently confined in the heat storage space. In addition, since the main body does not become too hot even when applied for a long time, there is an effect that the subject does not feel the heat even if the treatment is performed in direct contact with the skin. Furthermore, even if the main body part is brought into direct contact with the skin, the heat of the body is not taken away by the main body part, so that it does not feel harsh. Therefore, since the patient does not feel cold immediately after the start of the treatment, a warming apparatus that can be comfortably treated even in winter can be provided.

ところで、棒状の灸材は、火を着けてから所定時間が経過すると、艾が燃えて灰に変わる。そこで、支持手段によって棒状の灸材の挿入位置を調整する場合は、連続して施灸したい時間を考慮して決めておくと良い。例えば、本体部に挿入する棒状の灸材の挿入量があまりに小さいと、蓄熱空間内での灸材の燃焼時間が短くなり、十分な温灸効果を得られない場合が考えられる。逆に、本体部に挿入する棒状の灸材の挿入量があまりに大きいと、施術箇所と棒状の灸材との距離が短くなり過ぎ、被術者が、熱くて不快に感じる場合が懸念される。従って、被術者の好みやその日の体調に応じて、挿入位置を適宜変更させて使用すると良い。   By the way, when a predetermined time elapses after the rod-shaped rod material is ignited, the rod burns and turns into ash. Therefore, when adjusting the insertion position of the rod-shaped saddle member by the support means, it is preferable to determine in consideration of the time for which continuous brazing is desired. For example, if the insertion amount of the rod-shaped brazing material inserted into the main body is too small, the burning time of the brazing material in the heat storage space may be shortened and a sufficient warming effect may not be obtained. On the other hand, if the amount of the rod-shaped collar inserted into the main body is too large, the distance between the treatment site and the rod-shaped collar will be too short, and the patient may feel hot and uncomfortable. . Therefore, the insertion position may be changed appropriately according to the preference of the subject and the physical condition of the day.

しかし、挿入位置を変更した場合、予定していた施灸時間分よりも早い段階で灸材が燃え尽きてしまう場合が考えられる。つまり、被術者が熱さを感じて、灸材の燃焼位置を施術箇所より遠ざけたい場合、棒状の灸材の挿入量を減らすことが考えられるが、減らした結果、予定時間よりも早く蓄熱空間内の灸材が燃え尽きてしまうからである。また、勘違いなどでうっかり施灸時間を予定より長くする場合も考えられ、このような場合は、棒状の灸材の長さが短くなり(灰になり)、支持手段によって支持されている部位を越えて燃え尽きてしまう場合がある。そうすると、棒状の灸材の自立状態が保持できなくなるという問題が発生し得る。   However, when the insertion position is changed, the brazing material may be burned out at an earlier stage than the planned glazing time. In other words, if the subject feels heat and wants to keep the burning position of the firewood away from the treatment site, it is possible to reduce the amount of rod-like firewood inserted, but as a result of the reduction, the heat storage space is faster than the scheduled time. This is because the firewood inside is burned out. In addition, it may be possible to inadvertently increase the glazing time longer than expected due to misunderstandings, etc. In such a case, the length of the rod-shaped cocoon material will become shorter (become ash), exceeding the part supported by the support means. May burn out. If it does so, the problem that it becomes impossible to hold | maintain the self-supporting state of a rod-shaped eaves material may generate | occur | produce.

そこで、本発明の温灸器において、「前記挿通孔の上方に延びて配置され、前記支持手段によって支持された棒状の灸材の自立状態を補助する円筒部をさらに具備する」ものとすることができる。   Therefore, in the hot water heater of the present invention, it is further assumed that “it further includes a cylindrical portion that is arranged to extend above the insertion hole and assists the self-supporting state of the rod-shaped rod material supported by the support means”. it can.

本発明の温灸器によれば、挿通孔の上方に延びて配置される円筒部がさらに備えられており、支持手段によって支持された棒状の灸材の自立状態を補助することが可能である。従って、仮に支持されている部位を越えて灸材が燃え尽きてしまっても、円筒部によって自立状態が補助されるので、灸材が倒れたり折れたりする心配が無い。また、円筒部は、挿通孔の上方に延びて配置されるから、挿通孔の上方から棒状の灸材を挿入する際のガイド部材としても機能し、スムーズな挿入作業を可能にする。これにより、一層使いやすくて安全な温灸器を提供できる。   According to the warming device of the present invention, the cylindrical portion arranged to extend above the insertion hole is further provided, and it is possible to assist the self-supporting state of the rod-shaped saddle supported by the supporting means. Therefore, even if the firewood burns out beyond the part that is supported, the cylindrical portion assists the self-supporting state, so there is no fear that the firewood will fall or be broken. Further, since the cylindrical portion is arranged to extend above the insertion hole, it also functions as a guide member when inserting a rod-shaped saddle material from above the insertion hole, enabling a smooth insertion operation. This makes it possible to provide a warmer that is easier to use and safer.

このように、本発明の温灸器によれば、棒状の灸材を自立させた状態に保持できる本体部を備えているから、両手を離してハンズフリー状態で棒灸をすることができる。よって、長時間施灸しても疲れないし、他のお灸やマッサージとの同時進行が可能な効率的な施灸を可能とする。   Thus, according to the hot water heater of the present invention, since the main body portion that can hold the rod-shaped rod material in a self-supporting state is provided, the rod rod can be formed in a hands-free state by releasing both hands. Therefore, even if it is applied for a long time, it does not get tired, and efficient glazing that allows simultaneous progress with other acupuncture and massage is enabled.

以下、本発明の一実施形態である温灸器について、図1乃至図3に基づき説明する。図1は本発明の温灸器を側面からみた場合における断面図、図2は温灸器を底面側から見た場合における斜視図、図3は温灸器の使用方法を説明する説明図である。   Hereinafter, a hot water heater according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of the present invention when viewed from the side, FIG. 2 is a perspective view when the warmer is viewed from the bottom, and FIG. 3 is an explanatory view for explaining how to use the warmer.

本例の温灸器1は、図1及び図2に示すように、本体部2と、支持手段3と、円筒部4とを備えており、棒状の灸材8(以下、単に「灸材8」と称す)を用いて温灸を行う器具である。   As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the warming device 1 of the present example includes a main body portion 2, a support means 3, and a cylindrical portion 4. It is an instrument that performs warming using the

本例の本体部2は、温灸器1の本体部分を為す部材であり、けやきの木材から一体的に切り出すことで構成されている。より詳しくは図2に示すように、底面9が開放された蓄熱空間5を有するドーム状の形状をしている。底面9は、開口部の幅K(直径)が約11cmの略円形であり、底面9から挿通孔6までの高さは直径の略半分(約5.5cm)である。上面には、上方から灸材8を挿通するための挿通孔6が設けられている。さらに、側面には、蓄熱空間5の内部と外部とを空気が行き来できるよう形成された複数の通気部7が設けられている。   The main body 2 in this example is a member that forms a main body portion of the warming device 1, and is configured by being cut out integrally from the keywood wood. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, it has a dome shape having a heat storage space 5 with an open bottom surface 9. The bottom surface 9 has a substantially circular shape with an opening width K (diameter) of about 11 cm, and the height from the bottom surface 9 to the insertion hole 6 is about half of the diameter (about 5.5 cm). On the upper surface, an insertion hole 6 for inserting the brazing material 8 from above is provided. Further, a plurality of ventilation portions 7 formed so that air can move between the inside and the outside of the heat storage space 5 are provided on the side surface.

支持手段3は、挿通孔6に挿通された灸材8を自立した状態で保持すると共に、所望の挿入位置で支持する部材である。より詳しくは図1に示すように、円筒部4(後述する)の内壁に一体的に設けられた環状の部材であり、その内径が所定の灸材8の直径と略等しい。従って、灸材8を支持手段3内に挿入すると、灸材8の外側と支持手段3の内壁とが接触するようになっている。材質としては、公知の難燃性プラスチックが採用されている。   The support means 3 is a member that holds the saddle member 8 inserted through the insertion hole 6 in a self-supporting state and supports it at a desired insertion position. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, it is an annular member integrally provided on the inner wall of a cylindrical portion 4 (described later), and its inner diameter is substantially equal to the diameter of the predetermined brazing material 8. Therefore, when the brazing material 8 is inserted into the support means 3, the outside of the brazing material 8 and the inner wall of the support means 3 come into contact with each other. As a material, a known flame retardant plastic is adopted.

円筒部4は、挿通孔6の上方に延びて配置された円筒状の部材であり、支持手段3によって支持された灸材8の自立状態を補助するものである。その内径は、所定の灸材8の直径よりも大きいので、スムーズに灸材8を挿入することができる。材質としては、前述したように支持手段3と一体的に形成されているので、支持手段3と同じく難燃性のプラスチックである。   The cylindrical portion 4 is a cylindrical member arranged to extend above the insertion hole 6 and assists the self-supporting state of the saddle member 8 supported by the support means 3. Since the inner diameter is larger than the diameter of the predetermined brazing material 8, the brazing material 8 can be inserted smoothly. As described above, since the material is integrally formed with the support means 3 as described above, it is a flame-retardant plastic like the support means 3.

なお、本例の温灸器1では、太さが約16mm、長さが約210mmの灸材8を使用している。灸材8の太さや長さは、当然のことながら上記の数値には限定されないが、選択する灸材8の太さに応じて支持手段3や円筒部4の内径を変更すると良い。灸材8の太さが支持手段3や円筒部4の内径より太いと、灸材8をこれらの中に挿通できないからである。一方、支持手段3の内径より灸材8が細い場合は、灸材8の外側と支持手段3の内壁とが接触せず、所望の位置で支持できない場合があるからである。また、灸材8の長さに応じて円筒部4の長さを選択すると良い(本例では50mm程度である)。灸材8の長さに比してあまりに円筒部4が短いと、灸材8の自立状態を補助するのが困難となる場合があるからである。一方、灸材8の長さに比してあまりに円筒部4が長いと、空気の出入りが難しい円筒部4内に灸材8の大部分が隠れてしまうため、燃焼させられない灸材8の割合が増えるからである。従って、使用する灸材8の太さや長さに応じて、適宜なサイズの支持手段3及び円筒部4を選択することが好ましい。   In addition, in the hot water heater 1 of this example, the brazing material 8 whose thickness is about 16 mm and whose length is about 210 mm is used. Naturally, the thickness and length of the brazing material 8 are not limited to the above numerical values, but the inner diameter of the support means 3 and the cylindrical portion 4 may be changed according to the thickness of the brazing material 8 to be selected. This is because if the thickness of the brazing material 8 is larger than the inner diameters of the support means 3 and the cylindrical portion 4, the brazing material 8 cannot be inserted into these. On the other hand, when the saddle member 8 is narrower than the inner diameter of the support means 3, the outer side of the saddle member 8 and the inner wall of the support means 3 do not contact each other and may not be supported at a desired position. Moreover, it is good to select the length of the cylindrical part 4 according to the length of the brazing material 8 (it is about 50 mm in this example). This is because if the cylindrical portion 4 is too short compared to the length of the brazing material 8, it may be difficult to assist the self-supporting state of the brazing material 8. On the other hand, if the cylindrical portion 4 is too long compared to the length of the brazing material 8, most of the brazing material 8 is hidden in the cylindrical portion 4 where it is difficult for air to enter and exit. This is because the ratio increases. Therefore, it is preferable to select the support means 3 and the cylindrical portion 4 of an appropriate size according to the thickness and length of the brazing material 8 to be used.

次に、図3を用いて、本例の温灸器1の使用方法について説明する。まず、図3(a)に示すように、灸材8を挿通孔6に挿入する。本例の温灸器1には、挿通孔6の上方に延びた円筒部4が取設されているから、円筒部4がガイド部材となって挿通孔6にスムーズに灸材8を差し込むことができる。そして、先端側8aが本体部2の蓄熱空間5(図3(b)参照。以下同じ)内に到達するまで、灸材8を深く挿入する。   Next, the usage method of the hot water heater 1 of this example is demonstrated using FIG. First, as shown in FIG. 3A, the brazing material 8 is inserted into the insertion hole 6. Since the cylindrical portion 4 extending above the insertion hole 6 is installed in the warmer 1 of this example, the cylindrical portion 4 can serve as a guide member to smoothly insert the brazing material 8 into the insertion hole 6. it can. And the brazing material 8 is inserted deeply until the front end side 8a reaches | attains in the thermal storage space 5 (refer FIG.3 (b). The following is the same) of the main-body part 2. FIG.

そして、図3(b)に示すように、適宜な着火手段10を用いて、灸材8の先端側8aに火を着ける。なお、本例では灸材8を蓄熱空間5内に挿入した後に着火する方法を例示しているが、その逆でも構わない。すなわち、まず灸材8の先端側8aに火をつけ、その後円筒部4の上方から挿入しても良い。但し、本例のように挿入後に着火すると、円筒部4や支持手段3(図1参照)に燃焼している先端部8aが直接触れないので、より安全である。   And as shown in FIG.3 (b), the suitable ignition means 10 is used and the front end side 8a of the brazing material 8 is ignited. In addition, although the method of igniting after inserting the brazing material 8 in the thermal storage space 5 is illustrated in this example, the reverse may be sufficient. That is, first, the tip end side 8 a of the brazing material 8 may be lit and then inserted from above the cylindrical portion 4. However, when ignited after insertion as in the present example, the burning tip portion 8a does not directly touch the cylindrical portion 4 or the support means 3 (see FIG. 1), which is safer.

続いて、図3(c)に示すように、施術箇所11(本例では、人体の臍部分を例示)に本体部2の底面9を接触させる。開放されている底面9が施術箇所11によって塞がれると、灸材8の先端側8aの熱が蓄熱空間5内に充満し、施術箇所11に対して温灸効果をもたらすと共に、灸材8が発する煙が施術箇所11に当たる。本例では、底面9の直径が略11cmあるので、従来の棒灸や温灸器を用いる場合に比べて比較的広い範囲を温めることができる。また、熱だけでなく、灸材8の発する煙の薬効成分・香り成分を施術箇所11に浸透させることができる。なお、本体部2には通気部7が複数設けられているので、底面9が閉塞されても空気の行き来は妨げられない。よって、灸材8の燃焼状態は持続される。   Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 3C, the bottom surface 9 of the main body 2 is brought into contact with the treatment site 11 (in this example, the umbilical portion of the human body is illustrated). When the opened bottom surface 9 is blocked by the treatment site 11, the heat of the distal end side 8 a of the brazing material 8 is filled in the heat storage space 5, and a warming effect is brought about to the treatment site 11. The emitted smoke hits the treatment site 11. In this example, since the diameter of the bottom surface 9 is approximately 11 cm, a relatively wide range can be heated as compared with the case of using a conventional barb or a hot water heater. Further, not only the heat but also the medicinal component and scent component of the smoke emitted from the brazing material 8 can be permeated into the treatment site 11. The main body 2 is provided with a plurality of ventilation portions 7, so that the passage of air is not hindered even if the bottom surface 9 is closed. Therefore, the burning state of the brazing material 8 is maintained.

ここで、本例の本体部2は、けやきの木材から構成されているので、肌に直接触れても冷たさを感じさせない。また、木材は金属やセラミックス等に比べて断熱効果が高いから、灸材8のから発せられる熱を本体部2の外部へ逃がし難い。よって、蓄熱空間5内に熱を効率的に閉じ込めることができる。   Here, since the main-body part 2 of this example is comprised from the keywood, it does not feel cold even if it touches skin directly. Further, since wood has a higher heat insulating effect than metals and ceramics, it is difficult for heat generated from the brazing material 8 to escape to the outside of the main body 2. Therefore, heat can be efficiently confined in the heat storage space 5.

そして、灸材8を上下させ、被術者が心地よく感じる温度になるよう調節する。熱さが足りない場合は、灸材8の挿入量を増やして先端側8aを下側に移動させ、施術箇所11に近づけると良い。熱すぎる場合は、逆に灸材8の挿入量を減らして先端側8aを上側に移動させ、施術箇所11から遠ざける。本例の灸材8は、支持手段3によって支持されているから、挿入位置を任意の場所に移動させることが可能である。こうして、被術者の好みに応じて自由に温度調節を行いながら、棒灸を楽しむことができる。   Then, the saddle material 8 is moved up and down to adjust the temperature so that the subject feels comfortable. If the heat is insufficient, the insertion amount of the brazing material 8 is increased and the distal end side 8a is moved downward to bring it closer to the treatment site 11. When too hot, conversely, the insertion amount of the brazing material 8 is reduced and the distal end side 8a is moved upward and away from the treatment site 11. Since the brazing material 8 of this example is supported by the support means 3, the insertion position can be moved to an arbitrary place. Thus, it is possible to enjoy the rod while adjusting the temperature freely according to the preference of the subject.

棒灸が終了すると、灸材8を本体部2から抜き取る。そして、図3(d)に示すように、水をためた容器12の中に先端側8aを浸す。こうして、先端側8aの火を鎮火させる。消化方法は上述に限定されず、小さな火消しツボの中に先端側8aを差し込み、酸素の供給を絶つ方法でも良いし、灰皿などに先端側8aを押し付けて火をもみ消しても良い。本例の灸材8は、水につけても自然乾燥させるだけで再利用可能だから、灸材8を一度に使いきる必要は無い。こうして、本例の温灸器1を用いた棒灸が終了する。   When the rod is finished, the brazing material 8 is extracted from the main body 2. And as shown in FIG.3 (d), the front end side 8a is immersed in the container 12 which stored water. In this way, the fire on the tip side 8a is extinguished. The digestion method is not limited to the above, and the tip side 8a may be inserted into a small fire extinguisher to cut off the supply of oxygen, or the tip side 8a may be pressed against an ashtray to extinguish the fire. Since the brazing material 8 of this example can be reused by simply drying it even if it is soaked in water, it is not necessary to use the brazing material 8 all at once. In this way, the stick using the hot water heater 1 of this example is completed.

以上のように、本例の温灸器1によれば、底面9の開口部の幅Kが約11cmであり、底面9から挿通孔6までの高さが幅Kの略半分(約5.5cm)なので、施灸時(図3(c)参照)の安定性が非常に良い。さらに、支持手段3も備えられているから、温度調節が簡単であるし、手を離した状態でも快適な温度状態が保たれる。よって、長時間施灸しても疲れず、他のお灸やマッサージとの同時進行が可能である。さらに、底面9の開口部の幅Kが約11cmあるから、従来の棒灸や温灸器に比べて広い範囲を温めることができる。   As described above, according to the hot water heater 1 of this example, the width K of the opening of the bottom surface 9 is about 11 cm, and the height from the bottom surface 9 to the insertion hole 6 is approximately half the width K (about 5.5 cm). Therefore, the stability at the time of glazing (see FIG. 3C) is very good. Furthermore, since the support means 3 is also provided, temperature adjustment is easy and a comfortable temperature state is maintained even when the hand is released. Therefore, even if it is applied for a long time, it does not get tired, and it is possible to proceed with other acupuncture and massage at the same time. Furthermore, since the width K of the opening of the bottom surface 9 is about 11 cm, a wider range can be warmed compared to conventional rods and warmers.

さらに、本例の温灸器1によれば、施術箇所11に接触する本体部2が木製である。よって、金属やセラミックス、樹脂等に比べて断熱性が高く、灸材8が発する熱を効率よく蓄熱空間5内に閉じ込めることができる。また、長時間施灸しても本体部2が熱くなりすぎないので、皮膚に直接接触させても被術者に熱さを感じさせないという効果を有している。さらに、本体部2を皮膚に直接接触させても、体の熱が本体部2に奪われず、ヒンヤリと感じさせない。よって、冬場でも快適に施術できる温灸器1を提供できる。   Furthermore, according to the hot water heater 1 of this example, the main body 2 that contacts the treatment site 11 is made of wood. Therefore, heat insulation is high compared to metal, ceramics, resin, etc., and the heat generated by the brazing material 8 can be efficiently confined in the heat storage space 5. Moreover, since the main body part 2 does not become too hot even if it is applied for a long time, there is an effect that the subject does not feel the heat even if it is brought into direct contact with the skin. Furthermore, even if the main body 2 is brought into direct contact with the skin, the heat of the body is not taken away by the main body 2 and does not feel harsh. Therefore, it is possible to provide a warming apparatus 1 that can be operated comfortably even in winter.

また、本例の温灸器1によれば、挿通孔6の上方に延びて配置される円筒部4がさらに備えられている。これにより、支持手段3によって支持された灸材8の自立状態を補助することが可能である。すなわち、仮に支持されている部位を越えて灸材8が燃え尽きてしまっても、円筒部4によって灸材8の自立状態が補助されるので、灸材8が倒れたり折れたりする心配が無い。また、円筒部4は、挿通孔6の上方に延びて配置されるから、挿通孔6の上方から灸材8を挿入する際のガイド部材としても機能し、スムーズな挿入作業を可能にする。これにより、一層使いやすくて安全な温灸器を1提供できる。   Moreover, according to the hot water heater 1 of this example, the cylindrical part 4 extended and arrange | positioned above the penetration hole 6 is further provided. Thereby, it is possible to assist the self-supporting state of the saddle member 8 supported by the support means 3. That is, even if the brazing material 8 burns out beyond the part that is supported, the cylindrical portion 4 assists the self-supporting state of the brazing material 8, so there is no fear that the brazing material 8 will fall or break. Moreover, since the cylindrical part 4 is extended and arrange | positioned above the insertion hole 6, it functions also as a guide member at the time of inserting the collar material 8 from the upper direction of the insertion hole 6, and enables smooth insertion operation | work. This makes it possible to provide one warmer that is easier to use and safer.

以上、本発明について好適な実施形態を挙げて説明したが、本発明はこれらの実施形態に限定されるものではなく、以下に示すように、本発明の趣旨を逸脱しない範囲において種々の改良及び設計の変更が可能である。   The present invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments, and various improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention, as described below. Design changes are possible.

すなわち、上記の実施形態によれば、本体部2に固定された支持手段3及び円筒部4を例示したが、この構成には限定されない。何れか一方または双方を本体部2に対して着脱可能な状態で取り付けても良い。このように構成すると、灸材8の長さや太さが変わっても、支持手段3もしくは円筒部4の少なくとも一方を他のサイズのものに付け替えて対応することができる。   That is, according to said embodiment, although the support means 3 and the cylindrical part 4 which were fixed to the main-body part 2 were illustrated, it is not limited to this structure. Either one or both may be attached to the main body 2 in a detachable state. If comprised in this way, even if the length and thickness of the collar 8 change, it can respond by changing at least one of the support means 3 or the cylindrical part 4 to the thing of another size.

また、上記の実施形態によれば、長さが50mm程度である円筒部4を例示したが、このサイズには限定されないし、長さが可変の円筒部4としても良い。例えば、円筒部4を上下二つのパーツで構成し、下方の円筒部に雌ネジ溝を設け、上方の円筒部には当該雌ネジ溝に嵌合する雄ネジ部を設ける構成などが例示できる。このように構成すると、雌ネジ部と雄ネジ部の締め具合を調整することで、円筒部4の全体の長さを可変にすることができる。よって、灸材8の長さに応じてバランスの良い長さの円筒部4を選択することができ、一層便利である。   Moreover, according to said embodiment, although the cylindrical part 4 whose length is about 50 mm was illustrated, it is not limited to this size, It is good also as a cylindrical part 4 with variable length. For example, a configuration in which the cylindrical portion 4 is composed of two upper and lower parts, a female screw groove is provided in the lower cylindrical portion, and a male screw portion that fits into the female screw groove is provided in the upper cylindrical portion. If comprised in this way, the whole length of the cylindrical part 4 can be made variable by adjusting the tightening degree of an internal thread part and an external thread part. Therefore, the cylindrical portion 4 having a well-balanced length can be selected according to the length of the saddle member 8, which is more convenient.

また、上記の実施形態によれば、内径が灸材8の直径と略等しい環状部材である支持手段3を例示したが、この構成には限定されない。例えば、図4(a)に示すように、挿通孔6の上に配置されている切り欠きのある円筒部12と、公知の結束手段17とを用いる構成なども例示できる。図4(a)に示すように、円筒状部材の上部の一部を切り欠くと、残された部位が切片12aとして残される。この切片12aに、結束手段17を用いて挿入した灸材8を固定することで、所望の挿入位置に、灸材8を固定することができる。結束手段17は、適宜なワイヤー、紐、結束バンド、その他灸材8を切片12aに結束できるものであれば良い。   Moreover, according to said embodiment, although the support means 3 which is an annular member whose internal diameter is substantially equal to the diameter of the brazing material 8 was illustrated, it is not limited to this structure. For example, as shown to Fig.4 (a), the structure using the cylindrical part 12 with a notch arrange | positioned on the insertion hole 6, and the well-known binding means 17 etc. can be illustrated. As shown in FIG. 4A, when a part of the upper part of the cylindrical member is cut away, the remaining part is left as a section 12a. By fixing the brazing material 8 inserted using the bundling means 17 to the section 12a, the brazing material 8 can be fixed at a desired insertion position. The binding means 17 may be any one that can bind an appropriate wire, string, binding band, or other brazing material 8 to the slice 12a.

また、図4(b)に示すように、挿通孔6の上方に延びて配置された円筒部13と、公知のクリップ14とで支持手段3を構成しても良い。円筒部13内に灸材8を挿入し、所望の挿入位置となるようクリップ14を灸材8に係止させるものである。さらに、図4(c)に示すように(図4(c)は縦断面図の一部を示している)、挿通孔6の上方に延びて配置された円筒部15と、弾性部材16とで支持手段3を構成しても良い。灸材8を円筒部15内に挿入すると、弾性部材16が弾性変形して灸材8を圧接し、摩擦力によって所望の挿入位置に支持されるものである。なお、図4(c)では、板バネ状の弾性部材16を例示しているが、コイルスプリング状部材、ゴム状部材等、弾性変形をして灸材8を支持するものであれば、この構成には限定されない。   Further, as shown in FIG. 4B, the support means 3 may be constituted by a cylindrical portion 13 arranged to extend above the insertion hole 6 and a known clip 14. The brazing material 8 is inserted into the cylindrical portion 13, and the clip 14 is locked to the brazing material 8 so that a desired insertion position is obtained. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 4 (c) (FIG. 4 (c) shows a part of a longitudinal sectional view), a cylindrical portion 15 arranged to extend above the insertion hole 6, an elastic member 16, and The support means 3 may be configured as described above. When the brazing material 8 is inserted into the cylindrical portion 15, the elastic member 16 is elastically deformed to press the brazing material 8 and is supported at a desired insertion position by a frictional force. In FIG. 4C, the leaf spring-like elastic member 16 is illustrated. However, if the elastic member is elastically deformed and supports the saddle member 8 such as a coil spring-like member or a rubber-like member, The configuration is not limited.

また、本例の温灸器1に、灸材8の燃えカスをキャッチする適宜な収容手段を付加しても良い。収容手段の形態としては、例えば本体部2の蓄熱空間5内に公知のネット部材を貼着する構成が例示できる(図示しない)。このような収容手段を付加すると、燃焼後に灰や燃えカスが出るタイプの灸材8であっても、施術箇所11に当該燃えカス等を落とすことが無いため、使える灸材のタイプが広がって便利である。   Moreover, you may add the suitable accommodating means which catches the burning residue of the soot material 8 to the warmer 1 of this example. As a form of the accommodating means, for example, a configuration in which a known net member is stuck in the heat storage space 5 of the main body 2 can be exemplified (not shown). If such a storage means is added, even if the ash and burning residue 8 is of a type that emits ash and burning residue after combustion, the burning residue and the like will not be dropped at the treatment site 11, so the types of the burning material that can be used are expanded. Convenient.
