Portable electronic moxibustion device {PORTABLE ELECTRICAL MOXIBUSTION THERAPEUTIC DEVICE}

The present invention relates to a portable electronic moxibustion device, and more particularly, it can improve moxibustion treatment efficiency and patient satisfaction by reliably and stably contacting all curved body parts as well as flat body parts to perform moxibustion. It is a portable electronic moxibustion device that can be configured in a small size to increase the usability and portability for a local area, provide fumigation beneficial to the human body, and emit far-infrared rays to further improve functionality. it's about

In general, moxibustion along with acupuncture is used as a treatment means to stimulate acupuncture points in oriental clinics, and in particular, moxibustion is widely used for health management purposes at home as it is relatively easy to operate and has no side effects. .

Here, as moxibustion has the advantage of being relatively easy to operate and having no side effects, it is widely used for purposes such as health care in general households. Moxibustion is used to treat or prevent diseases by directly applying heat to acupuncture points, meridians, and painful areas of the body to treat or prevent diseases.

On the other hand, the mugwort moxibustion treatment method using mugwort is divided into an indirect and direct bulb method according to the heat transfer method. it is known that

This is to prevent burns caused by moxibustion and at the same time generate an appropriate amount of heat to maximize the therapeutic effect of moxibustion and control the burning time to apply thermal stimulation for an appropriate time.

The existing moxibustion method using mugwort can be divided into an indirect method and a direct method.

All of these moxibustion methods generate smoke when burning the mugwort bunch, and there is a hassle of having to light the mugwort bunch every time during the procedure, and there is a risk of the mugwort bunch falling down and causing burns during the procedure.

And after the procedure, it is cumbersome to clean the ashes that are burnt from the mugwort bundle from the treatment site, and the operator has to monitor the patient from the side during the procedure, so there is an element of wasting a lot of time from the operator's point of view, which in the end causes an increase in medical expenses. There were problems such as

However, in the conventional treatment using mugwort moxibustion as described above, when the size of the mugwort bunch is reduced, it is difficult to handle and has a small amount of heat, so it is difficult to obtain a sufficient therapeutic effect. In case of increasing the amount of heat, it is exposed to the risk of burns due to excessive calorific value, and there are also problems in post-processing such as ash left from burning mugwort.

Accordingly, in recent years, in order to solve the problems in the conventional moxibustion treatment as described above, various types of electronic moxibustion devices have been developed and are being used at oriental clinics or at home.

The electronic moxibustion device is configured to generate heat by supplying a predetermined power to a device for moxibustion, and to directly contact the heating part of the device to the skin for treatment.

However, FIG. 1 is a view showing a state of treatment using a conventional electronic moxibustion device, and the conventional electronic moxibustion device has a problem in that it does not properly contact a curved body part, thereby preventing correct treatment.
