In general, a cupping apparatus is an oriental medicine treatment apparatus used for vacuum lifeblood treatment, blood purification and improvement of physical constitution. Cupping therapy using such a cupping apparatus is an oriental medicine treatment method in which a cupping apparatus (cup) with an opening in one side is put on the skin on an acupuncture point, and air in the cupping apparatus is drawn out from the interior space of the cupping apparatus to maintain a negative pressure (vacuum) state in the interior of the cupping apparatus so that the cupping apparatus is fixed onto the skin while the skin is inhaled into the interior of the cupping apparatus by the negative pressure, and a bodily waste, toxin, or bad blood is extracted through pores.
The cupping therapy induces smooth metabolism of the body and blood purification, expands capillaries, promotes blood circulation, and discharges wastes and toxins to the outside of the body to treat the affected part to be treated.
As a cupping apparatus according to the traditional method, a cup-shaped ceramic product is mainly used. The cupping apparatus which is the ceramic product has drawbacks in that it is broken due to carelessness during use and it is inconvenient for use, such as setting alcohol on fire.
Recently, by improving such drawbacks, a cupping apparatus having an air suction means, unlike the traditional cupping therapy, has been used.
A cupping apparatus having an air suction means according to the prior art may include a check valve, an air inside the cupping apparatus is drawn out using an air suction pump to generate a negative pressure inside the cupping apparatus, thereby attaching the cupping apparatus onto the affected part and at the same time removing bodily wastes or toxins through pores by means of the suction force.
However, in the cupping apparatus according to the prior art, an open lower portion of a cup is made of a rigid material, such as synthetic resin, and thus the cupping apparatus has a problem in that it is difficult to use in joint areas having uneven surfaces, as well as skin areas, areas with thin muscles, or hairy areas.
Particularly, when cupping therapy is performed on the head, it is not easy to maintain a negative-pressure load inside the cupping apparatus due to the thickness of the hair and the gap between adjacent hairs. In order to solve such problems, if hair is removed from contact areas between the head and the cupping apparatuses, several hair-removed areas may make a recipient feel uncomfortable in social life and may result in a tendency to avoid treatment procedures.
In addition, when cupping therapy is performed using several cupping apparatus according to the prior art, negative pressure loss is not independently controlled for each cupping apparatus, and thus if one cupping apparatus is separated from a treatment site and a large amount of air is introduced thereinto, a vacuum pump cannot function properly so that all other negative pressures cannot be maintained.
Therefore, there is an urgent need for a practically applicable technology that can apply the cupping therapy on an area including a head part of the human body where it is difficult to use a cupping apparatus, as well as allows a user to easily adjust internal negative pressure of a cupping apparatus even when using a number of cupping apparatuses, thereby providing the stable cupping therapy.
The present invention has been devised to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a scalp cupping device, an electronic cupping device system having the same, and a method of using the cupping device, wherein the scalp cupping device includes an attachment suction member made of a heterogeneous silicone material and inserted into and coupled to a main body of the cupping device, so that the cupping therapy can be performed on various areas where it is difficult to use a cupping device, including the scalp and joint areas, as well as, allows a user to easily adjust the negative pressure inside each cupping device even when using multiple cupping devices, and automatically blocks an exhaust pipe of the cupping device causing a loss of negative pressure from among the multiple cupping devices so as to enable suitable control for the negative pressure loss of the cupping device, thereby providing the stable cupping therapy.

A cupping device according to the present invention relates to a cupping device for discharging a bodily waste by using a negative-pressure load obtaining suction force from the removal of the inner air thereof.
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in
More specifically, the negative pressure-controlling main cup 100 may have a negative pressure adjustment means 110 provided at the upper side thereof to apply a negative-pressure load to the inside thereof.
In this case, the negative pressure-controlling main cup 100 may be formed in the shape of a circular cup made of a transparent plastic material with an open lower portion, as shown in the drawing.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the negative pressure adjustment means 110 provided in the main cup includes an exhaust pipe 111, an exhaust valve 112, and a negative pressure release button 113 provided on the upper side thereof, and the negative pressure adjustment means 110 may be disposed between the main cup 100 and a suction hose 301, or between the suction hose 301 and a suction pipe 320, and may have a holder engaging part 130 on the outer surface of a lower end to be engaged with a holder 230 of the auxiliary cup 200, which will be described below.
Here, the exhaust pipe 111 may generate a negative pressure by discharging the air inside the main cup, and the exhaust valve 112 may discharge the air inside the main cup or block the air from flowing into the inside the main cup.
More specifically, as shown in
In this case, an exhaust blocking release button 112a capable of moving the blocking plate 111b in a downward vertical direction may be formed on the upper surface of the exhaust valve 112 in an area adjacent to the exhaust pipe 111.
When described in more detail with reference to the drawings, the blocking plate 111b usually maintains an intermediate position 111c at which it does not block either up or down directions inside the exhaust pipe 111 at the lower end of the blocking plate spring 111a. The blocking plate 111b moves up and down according to the air speed, wherein, when moving upward, the blocking plate 111b seals the bottom surface of the exhaust pipe 111 to block the exhaust direction, and when moving downward, the blocking plate 111b may seal an inlet hole formed on an upper surface of the main cup to maintain a vacuum.
Therefore, the blocking state in the exhaust direction may be released by using the exhaust blocking release button 112a, and the blocking state in the inflow direction may be released by using the negative pressure release button 113 to be described below or by a suction operation of a vacuum pump.
That is, the negative pressure release button 113 may release the negative-pressure load applied to the inside of the main cup.
In addition, when the main cup 100 and the auxiliary cup 200 are rotated to be coupled to each other while being stacked on each other, the holder engaging part 130 may be firmly coupled to the fixing member 230 of the auxiliary cup 200.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the body contact auxiliary cup 200 may be inserted into and coupled to an open lower portion of the main cup 100, and have, on the circumference of the bottom opening thereof, a contact portion for coming in contact with the body.
Here, the body contact auxiliary cup 200 may be formed in the shape of a circular cup made of a relatively flexible material compared to the main cup 100 so as to seal the contact portion when inserted into and coupled to the negative pressure-controlling main cup 100.
In addition, the body contact auxiliary cup 200, as shown in the drawing, may have a through hole 201 formed in the upper central portion thereof to transmit the negative-pressure load applied to the main cup 100, and may have an outwardly protruding circumferential periphery of the bottom opening to come in contact with the body.
Meanwhile, the body contact auxiliary cup 200 may include a coupling part 210, a suction part 220, and the holder 230.
More specifically, the coupling part 210 may be formed on the upper side, and may be made of a medium-hardness silicone material to prevent the inflow of external air by being in soft contact with the contact portion when coupled to the main cup 100.
In addition, the suction part 220 may be formed on the lower side, may be made of a material having a relatively low hardness compared to the coupling part 210, and may be formed by overlaying or connecting a low-hardness silicone material so that it can be securely attached without gaps even in contact with the scalp and hair.
In addition, the holder 230 may be formed in a hook shape between the coupling part 210 and the suction part 220, and may be made of a medium-hardness silicone material having a relatively high hardness compared to the suction part 220 so as not to be sucked into the main cup 100.
As such, the auxiliary cup 200 according to the embodiment of the present invention may be formed of a silicon material in an opaque state as a whole.
The operating principle of the scalp cupping device shown in
First, as shown in the drawing (
On the contrary, when the auxiliary cup 200 made of a silicone material is used by being coupled to the main cup 100, even if there is the scalp and hair in the contact portion, only a small amount of air is introduced, thereby minimizing the inflow of the air and the loss of negative pressure.
On the other hand, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the main cup 100 may be formed of a plastic material, so that it can firmly support a high negative pressure in the cup that cannot be managed with a silicone material, and hence can maintain a desired pressure.
In addition, the auxiliary cup 200 may be formed of a silicone material having a hardness value of around 40 or more when the coupling part 210 in contact with the main cup 100 is measured with a shore hardness meter, so that, even when in contact with a plastic material, it can be in soft contact with the plastic material while preventing the inflow of external air. Here, the shore hardness meter preferably has a value close to 100 as the hardness of the material increases and close to 0 as the flexibility of the material increases.
In addition, the suction part 220 may be made of a silicone material having a value of around 15 based on a value measured with a shore hardness meter, so that the auxiliary cup 200 can be closely attached without gaps even when in direct contact with the scalp and hair.
Meanwhile, the holder formed on the coupling part 210 and the suction part 220 may be made of a medium-hardness silicone material having a hardness value similar to that of the coupling part 210, so that it can fix the auxiliary cup 200 so as not to be deeply sucked in the main cup 100 even under the high negative pressure in the main cup 100.
In this manner, the cupping device according to the embodiment of the present invention can be strongly attached to joint areas, such as knees, shoulders, elbows, etc., as well as the head of the human body having the scalp and hair, thereby facilitating the cupping procedure.

In more detail, the control unit 310 may include a plurality of timer switches 311 in a one-to-one correspondence to the plurality of scalp cupping devices 10.
Also, the suction pipe 320 may be provided in plural and connected in a one-to-one correspondence between the timer switches 311 of the control unit 310 and the suction hoses 301 connected to the exhaust pipes 111 of the plurality of scalp cupping devices 10.
In addition, the on/off operation unit 330 may be provided in plural and each disposed between each exhaust pipe 111 constituting the plurality of scalp cupping devices 10 and the suction pipe 320 to control the on/off operation of the timer switch 311 of the control unit 310 with a remote button.
In addition, the pressure control device 340 may be provided in plural and connected in a one-to-one correspondence between the plurality of suction pipes 320 and the plurality of on/off operation units 330 so as to check and set a pressure value applied to each of the plurality of scalp cupping devices 10.
On the other hand, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the negative pressure control means 300 may each automatically stop the suction operation when the pressure applied to each of the plurality of scalp cupping devices 10 exceeds a specific range.
As such, the electronic cupping system according to an embodiment of the present invention may restore the negative pressure in real time when even a very small amount of negative pressure is lost between the hairs, and may continuously suck the air out of the main cup 100 to maintain the desired pressure.
Further, due to the silicon material constituting the auxiliary cup 200 described above in
A method of using a cupping device system according to the present invention is a method of using an electrical cupping device system which uses the plurality of scalp cupping devices 10 described above, each including a negative pressure-controlling main cup 100 made of a plastic material and a body contact auxiliary cup 200 inserted into and coupled to an open lower portion of the main cup 100 and made of a silicone material relatively flexible compared to the main cup 100 to increase the sealing force when in contact with the body.
In addition, as shown in the drawings, the method of using an electronic cupping system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes selecting a cupping device channel to be operated (S10), setting an operation time (S20), setting a pressure (S30), checking whether the pressure is improper (S40), automatically stopping in case of a sudden loss of negative pressure (S50), and resuming the cupping procedure when the automatic stop is disabled (S60).
In more detail, the selecting of the cup device channel to be operated (S10) may be a step of selecting at least one cupping device channel to be operated from among the plurality of scalp cupping devices 10.
In addition, the setting of the operation time (S20) may be a step of setting an operation time of the selected cupping device channel by using the timer switch 311 of the control unit 310 provided in the negative pressure control means 300.
In addition, the setting of the pressure (S30) may be a step of setting a pressure of the selected cupping device channel using the pressure control device 340 provided in the negative pressure control means 300.
In addition, the checking of whether the pressure is improper (S40) may include checking a button of the on/off operation unit 330 provided in the negative pressure control means 300 and, when the operation is in on state (S41), checking whether a pressure gauge provided in the pressure control device 340 indicates improper pressure (S42).
In addition, the automatic stopping in case of a sudden loss of negative pressure (S50) may include checking whether the pressure gauge provided in the pressure control device 340 indicates improper pressure, and when there is a sudden loss of negative pressure (S43), blocking the exhaust valve 111 of the selected cupping device channel (S51) to automatically stop the suction operation (S52).
Further, the resuming of the cupping procedure when the automatic stop is disabled (S60) may include, when there is no sudden loss of negative pressure by checking whether the pressure gauge provided in the pressure control device 340 indicates improper pressure, operating in a reverse mode (S61) in which the exhaust valve 111 and the suction hose 301 is disconnected to block the air from flowing into the cup by the exhaust valve 111, resolving issues for stopping the suction operation by automatically turning off the cupping device channel of the disconnected suction hose 301 and reconnecting the suction hose 301 to turn on the cupping channel, and resuming the cupping procedure (S63).
In this case, according to the embodiment of the present invention, when the exhaust is blocked after the issues for stopping the suction operation of the vacuum pump for the selected corresponding cupping device, an exhaust blocking state is released using the exhaust blocking release button 112a, and when the inflow is blocked, an inflow blocking state may be released using the negative pressure release button 113 or the suction operation of the vacuum pump for the selected corresponding cupping device channel.
Meanwhile, as shown in the drawings, in the method of using an electronic cupping device system according to the embodiment of the present invention, the steps following the step S40 of checking whether the pressure is improper may be repeatedly performed at regular intervals in the process of normal operation after the step S63 of resuming the cupping procedure.
