Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Field of industrial application] This invention heats the heating leg through a cap impregnated with a medicinal solution without causing any burns on the skin surface, and applies the medicinal solution and thermal stimulation to the acupuncture points and far-infrared rays. This invention relates to a far-infrared ray combination moxibustion treatment device that intensively penetrates deep into the skin to heighten the sense of warmth inside the body, further enhancing moxibustion treatment effects such as expanding peripheral nerves and the circulatory system and improving the metabolism of the affected area.

[Conventional technology]

Traditionally, using moxa or similar substances,
Moxibustion therapy is widely practiced as an empirical therapy that applies thermal stimulation to specific areas on the skin to induce a certain biological reaction and is applied to health care and disease treatment.

In addition, a moxibustion treatment device that generates heat using electricity using a rotating body having multiple convex portions (Japanese Utility Model Application No. 59-135745), and a moxibustion device that transfers heat from a heating package to the convex portions (Utility Model Publication No. 135745) 55-119729) is also known.

[The problem that the idea aims to solve]

In moxibustion treatment using moxa or similar substances mentioned above, in the case of moxibustion moxibustion, the moxa is lit on the skin to cause small burns, and its action is due to the nerve reflex effect against thermal stimulation. In the case of scarless moxibustion, thin pieces of fresh ginger, garlic, chives, miso, salt, etc. are placed on the skin, and sumac, oil, and wet The idea was to place warm gauze on top of the gauze and burn moxa over it, or use a moxibustion device to provide thermal stimulation in hopes of producing a neural reflex effect.

However, in the case of scar moxibustion, there were problems with patient pain and burn marks remaining. Also, Utsukai Showa 59-
Traceless moxibustion as seen in Publication No. 135745 and Publication of Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 119729/1983 is also known, but even in such a scarless moxibustion treatment device, the heating effect on the acupuncture points of the affected area is sufficiently satisfactory. It wasn't.

In view of the above, the inventor of the present invention has conducted various studies on moxibustion treatment devices, and has developed a system that combines thermal stimulation by heating the convex part of the rotating body to a constant temperature and thermal stimulation of the deep part of the body's skin using a far-infrared radiator. The present invention was developed based on the knowledge that it exerts excellent effects on peripheral nerves, expansion of the circulatory system, and improvement of metabolism in the affected area.

[Means to solve the problem]

That is, the present invention performs moxibustion by placing the heat-generating package 7 in the storage section 21 of the device main body 2, which has a rotating body 4 having a plurality of convex portions at the bottom, and transmitting the heat of the heat-generating package 7 to the rotating body. In the moxibustion treatment device, a far-infrared ray emitter is provided on the bottom of the storage section of the device body 2, and the device body 2, the shaft fixing portion 22 extending from the device body 2, the fixed shaft 3, and the rotating body 4 are made of thermally conductive material. This is a moxibustion treatment device that uses far infrared rays and is characterized by being made of high-quality metal.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention will be explained based on the drawings.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a front view of the far-infrared combined moxibustion treatment device, Figure 2 is a side view, and Figure 3 is B of Figure 2.
-A cross-sectional view along line B, Figure 4 is taken from A-A in Figure 1.
FIG. 5 is a front view of a heat-generating package used as a heat source in the far-infrared combined moxibustion treatment device of the present invention.

The device main body 2 is firmly fixed to a fixing part 5 at the tip of the handle 1, and a heat generating package 7 is attached to the device main body 2.
A storage section 21 is formed for storing the.
A far-infrared radiator 8 is attached to the bottom surface of the storage section 21.

A shaft fixing part 22 extends integrally from the device main body 2, a fixed shaft 3 is fixed to the shaft fixing part 22, and a rotating shaft having a plurality of convex parts 41, 41... A body 4 is rotatably pivoted.

The device body 2, the shaft fixing portion 22, the fixed shaft 3, and the rotating body 4 extending from the device body are made of a metal with good thermal conductivity, such as copper, aluminum, or Bryllium bronze.

Furthermore, the far-infrared radiator 8 is one of the characteristics of the moxibustion treatment device of the present invention, and is radiated according to the exothermic temperature of the exothermic agent 6 so that the optimal absorption wavelength band of far-infrared rays for each part of the human body is radiated. For example, materials such as powder sintered bodies such as cordierite, β-spodium, aluminum titanate, alumina, and spinel are used.

The heat-generating package 7 used as a heat source for the far-infrared combined moxibustion treatment device of the present invention is a commercially known disposable body warmer, etc., and when the outer bag 9 is torn and the heat-generating package 7 is shaken well, it generates heat. The exothermic agent (for example, a mixture of iron powder, water, vermiculite, activated carbon, salts, etc.) inside the package 7 generates heat.

When using the far-infrared combined moxibustion treatment device of the present invention, first tear the outer bag 9 of the heat-generating package 7, shake the heat-generating package 7 well, and place the heat-generating package 7 into the storage section 2 of the device main body 2. It is used by holding the handle 1 so that the convex part of the rotating body 4 is in contact with the affected area.
In this state, there is an acupressure effect of the convex part 41 on the acupuncture points of the affected area, and the heat from the heat generating package 7 is transferred to the device body 2 and the shaft fixing part 2 extending from the device body.
