Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] [Industrial application field] This invention is called Sennen Moxibustion (trademark), and is a method of igniting moxa in a small container with a special shape. It relates to a device used to apply it to acupuncture points on the body.

[Conventional technology]

As mentioned above, it is called Sennen Moxibustion (trademark), and a small hole is opened in the center of a small disc-shaped base plate as shown in Figure 6, and the moxibustion is placed in a cylinder that protrudes above the small hole. It is widely used to put moxa in and apply adhesive to the underside of the base plate. When using this, ignite the moxa at the top and then cover the adhesive surface on the bottom with a cover paper. It is designed to be peeled off and the adhesive side attached to pressure points on the body.
The device for igniting the moxa at the upper end was a simple ignition device that had an insertion port opened on the top surface of the ignition container and a heating wire attached to the inside of the insertion port.

[The problem that the idea aims to solve]

Conventionally, as described above, moxa is placed in a small container with a special shape (hereinafter referred to as moxibustion), the top end is ignited, the container is held in the hand, and the cover paper on the bottom is peeled off. I used to stick it on the right place on my body with my hands, but when I hold something lit in my hand, my hands get hot and I get burns, and sometimes I stick it on my back. The problem was that it was difficult to stick.

[Means to solve the problem]

The present invention was devised to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the device has a substantially flat gripping portion formed on the front surface, followed by a roughly rod-shaped gripping portion. A protrusion for exploring the acupuncture points of the human body is provided on the lower surface of the tip of the clamping part, and an insertion hole for inserting the moxibustion is opened near the protrusion, and a clamping piece is further provided for clamping the lower part of the moxibustion. is provided, and the lower part of the moxibustion can be clamped and released by the clamping piece, and an insertion recess for inserting the lower part of the lighter is provided in the end surface of the gripping part that is connected to the clamping part. The device is designed to easily ignite the moxibustion and apply the moxibustion to the acupuncture points of the human body.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. The instrument of this example is formed by a substantially rod-shaped gripping part 2 connected to a substantially flat gripping part 1, and the upper surface of a substrate 3 forming the gripping part 1 is thin and has a slightly elastic shape. An elastic plate 4 having an elastic plate 4 is formed by polymerizing the elastic plate 4, and its base is fixed to the substrate 3, and its tip extends slightly longer than the tip of the substrate 3, and a protrusion for detecting acupuncture points on the human body is provided on the lower surface of the elastic plate 4. 5 is provided protrudingly. Further, an insertion hole 6 for inserting the upper part of the moxibustion device K is opened near the tip of the substrate 3, and an elastic plate 4
A long hole 7 is also opened in the elastic plate 4, and a fireproof surface 8 is formed on the upper surface of the elastic plate 4. A fireproof surface 8 is formed by pasting a sheet coated with a nonflammable paint or a thin metal plate.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, a clamping piece 10 is inserted into a notch 9 formed by cutting out the vertical half of the upper part of the substrate 3, and its center portion is overlapped with the substrate 3 and attached to the shaft 11. Therefore, it is rotatably attached, and the upper part of the clamping piece 10 is biased by a spring 12 in a direction to close it. Furthermore, a recess 13 is provided in the upper part of the holding piece 10 and the substrate 3, which is concentric with the insertion hole 6 and has a slightly larger diameter than the insertion hole 6. Further, a stopper piece 14 is provided in contact with the inside of the protrusion 5 to restrict rotation of the clamping piece 10. A pressing portion 15 is provided protruding from the lower portion of the holding piece 10, and guide pieces 16 for guiding the lighter L are provided protruding from the left and right sides of the substantially central portion of the elastic plate 4. Furthermore, an insertion recess 17 into which the lower part of the lighter L is inserted is provided in the end surface of the grip part 2 connected to the grip part 1.

When applying moxibustion K to the body using the device of this example, first insert the lower part of lighter L into lighter insertion recess 17 of grip part 2, then insert the upper cylindrical part of moxibustion K into the clamping part. 1 into the insertion hole 6 from the back side,
The lower part of the moxibustion device K is put into the recess 13 and held by the holding pieces 10. Next, as shown in Fig. 5, ignite the lighter with the device standing upright with the grip 1 facing up.
The flame ignites the moxa at the top of the moxibustion K, extinguishing the flame of the lighter L, and then peeling off the cover paper from the bottom of the moxibustion K, holding the grip part 2, and holding the protrusion 5 for acupuncture points. Place it on the lower side and bring it close to your body, and use the tactile sensation of the protrusion 5 to locate the acupuncture points. Once the position of the acupuncture point is known, press the clamping part 1 against the body so that the lower surface of the moxibustion K comes into contact with the body, and press the pressing part 15 of the clamping piece 10, the moxibustion K will be released from its grip and will come into close contact with the body, so that the moxibustion tool Just let go. In this way, whether you ignite the moxibustion K or attach it to your body,
There is no need to hold moxibustion in your hands.

Note that the length of the holding piece 10 may be made long,
Further, it is not necessarily necessary to provide the pressing portion 15, and furthermore, it is desirable that the length of the entire device be formed to an appropriate length.

[Effect of idea]

When performing moxibustion therapy using the device for administering moxibustion therapy of the present invention, whether the moxibustion moxa is ignited or the ignited moxibustion stick is attached to the body,
There is no need to hold moxibustion in your hands, so your hands won't get hot.
There is no chance of getting burned. Furthermore, since the protrusions for detecting acupuncture points can be used to easily find acupuncture points on the body, there is an advantage in that it is easy to know where to apply moxibustion. Also, since the device is long, you can apply the moxibustion to your own back.
