What 𪲊 means
Its linked character 枹 means a wooden drumstick.
Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary, defines 枹 as a stick for beating drums. The Zuozhuan chronicle uses it in a battle scene; Chu Ci (Songs of Chu) uses it in ritual music. Mandarin reads 枹 as fú for a drumstick and bāo for a kind of tree. Japanese dictionaries give 枹 the readings bachi (drumstick) and nara (oak).
Why does 𪲊 show as a box?
A font may lack this glyph.
𪲊 sits beyond the first 65,536 Unicode code points. Text can retain it even when no available font draws it; a CJK font with coverage can show the character.

1Why does 𪲊 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
