Subsequently, the emergency switch SW2 and the main switch (not shown) are sequentially turned on to control the power supply. Accordingly, when AC power of 220V is supplied, the first power splice and the second power splice of the power supply unit 350 operate to provide 12V and 5V DC power to the controller 310, thereby providing a controller 310. Control unit 320 is operated.

In this state, the moist temperature is set using the temperature selection switch SW3. In the initial state, the moxibustion temperature may be set to medium temperature, and each time the temperature selection switch SW3 is pressed, the moxibustion temperature is set in the order of low temperature to high temperature.

In addition, when the moxibustion procedure is completed according to the set conditions, it is possible to turn on the reset switch (SW5) to return the set conditions to the initial state. That is, when the reset switch SW5 is turned on, the current operating condition can be returned to the initial state when the power switch SW1 is turned on. Therefore, the first segment part 371 that displays the operation time of the operation condition display unit 324 is initialized to display the initial value "01:00", and the second segment unit 372 that displays the number of operations is initialized. In addition to being displayed as "00", the temperature controller 328 is initialized to connect the relay of the temperature controller 328 corresponding to the initial temperature.
