Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically relating to a scalp needle. Background Technology

[0002] Scalp vein needles are commonly used medical instruments by healthcare professionals. The needles of commercially available scalp vein needles are generally exposed, frequently causing accidental injury to healthcare workers during handling. To address this, a puncture-proof scalp vein needle has been developed. A protective sleeve is fitted over the needle tip, with a groove on the sleeve. The needle wings can slide within this groove, allowing the needle tip to be pushed out and retracted into the protective sleeve. This design, to some extent, prevents accidental injury to healthcare workers. However, it has also introduced new technical problems: some needles are connected to IV tubing. When the needle is pushed forward, the connection between the tubing and the needle is subject to traction, sometimes causing the tubing to detach from the needle, affecting the use of the scalp vein needle. How to solve this technical problem has been a subject of ongoing research. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a scalp needle to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A scalp vein needle includes a needle tip, a protective sheath, and an infusion tubing. The front end of the protective sheath extends inward to form a blocking ring. A slider is disposed inside the protective sheath, and a first piston is fixed to the front end of the slider. The front end of the first piston can pass through the blocking ring and is located outside the protective sheath. The rear end of the first piston has an annular protrusion that mates with the blocking ring. When the front end of the first piston passes through the blocking ring and is located outside the protective sheath, the annular protrusion abuts against the blocking ring, forming a seal. A protective cover is disposed at the rear end of the slider, and the protective cover is fixed to the slider, forming a seal with the slider. A first sealed chamber is formed, with the rear end of the needle passing through the first piston and fixed on the slider. There is a gap between the protective cover and the protective sleeve. A sealing ring is fitted on the protective cover near the rear end, forming a second sealed chamber between the sealing ring and the slider. The protective cover has a connecting hole connecting the first and second sealed chambers. The infusion tube is fixed on the protective sleeve. When the front end of the first piston passes through the blocking ring and is located outside the protective sleeve, the infusion tube communicates with the second sealed chamber. An operating rod is connected to the rear end of the protective cover, and the operating rod extends out of the rear end of the protective sleeve.

[0006] Preferably, the protective sleeve is provided with a limiting device. When the front end of the first piston passes through the blocking ring and is located outside the protective sleeve, the limiting device abuts against the rear end of the protective cover. When the piston moves back and forth, the limiting device can release its limiting effect on the protective cover.

[0007] Preferably, the protective sleeve has limit blocks on both sides, the limit blocks being right-angled triangles, the rear end of the protective cover being a plane, and the hypotenuse of the limit blocks facing the operating rod; one right-angled side of the limit block is used to abut against the rear end of the protective cover, and a connecting block is fixed to the other right-angled side of the limit block, the connecting block being right-angled triangles, one right-angled side of the connecting block being connected to the limit block, and the hypotenuse of the connecting block being perpendicular to the hypotenuse of the limit block; the protective sleeve has fixing plates on both sides, the fixing plates being located behind the limit blocks and parallel to the hypotenuse of the connecting blocks, and a sliding rod being slidably connected to the fixing plates, one end of the sliding rod passing through the fixing plates and connecting to the hypotenuse of the connecting block, the other end of the sliding rod being connected to an arc-shaped operating part, the opening of the arc-shaped operating part being forward-facing, the end not connected to the sliding rod being close to the middle of the protective sleeve, and a spring being fitted onto the portion of the sliding rod between the fixing plate and the connecting block.

[0008] Preferably, the protective sleeve is provided with needle wings near the front end.

[0009] The protective sleeve has a rearwardly extending flange at its rear end.

[0010] A handle is provided at the rear end of the control lever.

[0011] Preferably, the protective sleeve is provided with a limiting body, the limiting body being a right-angled triangle, with its hypotenuse facing the operating lever and its bottom located inside the protective sleeve; one right-angled side of the limiting body is located at its rear end, and a hinge portion is provided on the other right-angled side; a reinforcing body is provided on the protective sleeve corresponding to the hinge portion, the hinge portion being hinged to the reinforcing body, and a torsion spring is provided at the hinge position; the reinforcing body forms a bend near its front end, and the limiting body contacts the bend near its front end; triangular connecting bodies are provided on both sides of the bottom end of the protective cover, one apex of the triangular connecting body connecting to the corresponding limiting body, the connection position being located at the rear end of the hinge portion, forming a weak point; one side of the triangular connecting body corresponding to the weak point is connected to the protective cover.

[0012] Preferably, the rear end of the triangular connector is flush with the rear end of the protective cover.

[0013] Preferably, a blocking body is provided on the inner side of the protective sleeve, and the blocking body is located at the rear end of the limiting body.

[0014] Before use, the needle tip of the scalp vein needle of this invention is located inside the protective sleeve. During use, pushing the operating lever forward pushes the needle tip out of the protective sleeve. When the needle tip is pushed out, the front end of the first piston passes through the blocking ring and is located outside the protective sleeve. The annular protrusion at the rear end of the first piston abuts against the blocking ring, sealing it. Simultaneously, the sealing ring on the protective cover forms a seal against the inner wall of the sleeve and the protective cover at the rear end of the protective cover. At this time, a second sealed chamber is formed between the sealing ring and the slider. The infusion tube communicates with the second sealed chamber, and the liquid can enter the first sealed chamber through the connecting hole in the second sealed chamber, then pass through the needle tip and enter the human tissue. After use, pulling the operating lever returns the needle tip to the protective sleeve. In this structure, the infusion tube and needle tip are separate; therefore, pushing the needle forward will not pull the infusion tube, and the infusion tube is unlikely to detach and affect the use of the scalp vein needle.

[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] For examples, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 This embodiment provides a scalp vein needle, including a needle 1, a protective sheath 2, and an infusion tube 3. The front end of the protective sheath extends inward to form a blocking ring 2-2. A slider 4 is disposed inside the protective sheath, and a first piston 5 is fixed to the front end of the slider. The front end of the first piston can pass through the blocking ring and is located outside the protective sheath. The rear end of the first piston is provided with an annular protrusion 5-1 that cooperates with the blocking ring. When the front end of the first piston passes through the blocking ring and is located outside the protective sheath, the annular protrusion abuts against the blocking ring, forming a seal against the blocking ring. A protective cover 6 is provided at the rear end of the slider, and the protective cover is fixed to the slider and... A first sealed chamber 7 is formed between the sliders. The rear end of the needle passes through the first piston and is fixed on the slider. There is a gap between the protective cover and the protective sleeve. A sealing ring 8 is fitted on the protective cover near the rear end. A second sealed chamber 9 is formed between the sealing ring and the slider. The protective cover has a connecting hole 10 that connects the first sealed chamber and the second sealed chamber. The infusion tube is fixed on the protective sleeve. When the front end of the first piston passes through the blocking ring and is located outside the protective sleeve, the infusion tube communicates with the second sealed chamber. An operating rod 11 is connected to the rear end of the protective cover. The operating rod extends out of the rear end of the protective sleeve.

[0029] Before use, the needle tip of the aforementioned scalp vein needle is located inside the protective sheath. During use, pushing the operating lever forward pushes the needle tip out of the protective sheath. As the needle tip is pushed out, the front end of the first piston passes through the blocking ring and is located outside the protective sheath. The annular protrusion at the rear end of the first piston abuts against the blocking ring, sealing it. Simultaneously, the sealing ring on the protective cover forms a seal between the inner wall of the sheath and the protective cover at the rear end of the protective cover. At this time, a second sealed chamber is formed between the sealing ring and the slider. The infusion tube communicates with the second sealed chamber, allowing liquid to enter the first sealed chamber through the connecting hole, then through the needle tip, and finally into the human tissue. After use, pulling the operating lever returns the needle tip to the protective sheath. This structure separates the infusion tube from the needle tip; therefore, pushing the needle forward will not pull on the infusion tube, preventing it from easily detaching and affecting the use of the scalp vein needle.

[0030] For ease of operation, a needle wing 17 may be provided near the front end of the protective sleeve, and a rearwardly extending flange 18 may be provided at the rear end of the protective sleeve. A handle 19 may also be provided at the rear end of the operating lever.

[0031] In one embodiment, see Figure 2The protective sleeve has limit blocks 12 on both sides, each limit block being a right triangle. The rear end of the protective cover is a plane, and the hypotenuse of the limit block faces the operating rod. One right-angled side of the limit block is used to abut against the rear end of the protective cover, and a connecting block 13 is fixed to the other right-angled side of the limit block. The connecting block is also a right triangle, with one right-angled side connected to the limit block, and the hypotenuse of the connecting block perpendicular to the hypotenuse of the limit block. Fixing plates 14 are provided on both sides of the protective sleeve. The fixing plates are located behind the limit blocks and parallel to the hypotenuse of the connecting blocks. A sliding rod 15 is slidably connected to the fixing plate. One end of the sliding rod passes through the fixing plate and connects to the hypotenuse of the connecting block. The other end of the sliding rod is connected to an arc-shaped operating part 15-1, with the opening of the arc-shaped operating part facing forward. The end not connected to the sliding rod is close to the middle of the protective sleeve. A spring 16 is fitted onto the portion of the sliding rod between the fixing plate and the connecting block. In this structure, as the slider moves forward, it presses the inclined edge of the limiting block, causing it to move to both sides until the protective cover passes through. Then, under the action of the spring, the top surface of the limiting block abuts against the protective cover, thus limiting the protective cover. This prevents the needle from moving relative to the protective sleeve during operation by medical personnel. After use, the user's first and middle fingers pull the two arc-shaped operating parts respectively to release the limiting block from restricting the protective cover. At this time, pulling the operating rod will bring the needle into the protective sleeve. It should be noted that the above-mentioned limiting device is only a preferred embodiment. Other limiting devices can also be used, as long as they can achieve the function of the limiting device abutting against the rear end of the protective cover when the front end of the first piston passes through the blocking ring and is located outside the protective sleeve; and the limiting device can release the limiting effect on the protective cover when the piston moves back and forth.

[0032] In one embodiment, see Figure 3 and Figure 4The protective sleeve is provided with a limiting body 20, which is a right-angled triangle with its hypotenuse facing the operating lever and its bottom located inside the protective sleeve. One right-angled side of the limiting body is located at its rear end, and a hinge portion 20-1 is provided on the other right-angled side. A reinforcing body 2-1 is provided on the protective sleeve at the position corresponding to the hinge portion. The hinge portion is hinged to the reinforcing body, and a torsion spring is provided at the hinge position. The reinforcing body forms a bend 2-11 near the front end, and the limiting body near the front end... The position is in contact with the bend; a blocking body 21 is provided on the inner side of the protective sleeve, and the blocking body is located at the rear end of the limiting body. In this embodiment, the blocking body can be a blocking ring structure or a blocking block provided on the inner wall of both sides of the protective sleeve, which is not specifically limited here; a triangular connecting body 22 is provided on both sides of the bottom end of the protective cover, and one apex of the triangular connecting body is connected to the corresponding limiting body. The connection position is located at the rear end of the hinge part, and the connection position forms a weak part; one side of the triangular connecting body corresponding to the weak part is connected to the protective cover. Generally, the rear end of the triangular connecting body is flush with the rear end of the protective cover, or it can be slightly forward relative to the rear end of the protective cover. In use, the operating lever is first pushed. Due to the bending effect restricting the limiting body, the front end of the limiting body cannot rotate to either side. The weak point of the triangular connector is easily damaged. After the weak point is damaged, the protective cover moves forward and is used after being limited by the front limiting device. After use, the limiting device is released from the protective cover, and the operating lever is pulled to make the triangular connector squeeze the hypotenuse of the limiting body, thereby causing the rear end of the limiting body to rotate to both sides. After the triangular connector passes the limiting body, the rear end of the limiting body returns to its original position under the action of the torsion spring. The included angle position of the rear end is stuck between the triangular connector and the sealing ring, restricting the protective cover. Thus, as... If the connection between the limiting body and the reinforcing body is not broken, or the triangular connecting body is broken, the needle cannot be pushed forward again, preventing the disposable scalp needle from being recycled and reused. In actual use, the operating rod can also be pulled down to make the annular protrusion of the first piston located at the rear end of the limiting body. The limiting body blocks the annular protrusion in front, and the blocking body blocks the protective cover behind, thus restricting the needle inside the protective sleeve. If you want the needle to be reused forward, it needs to pass through the restrictions of the annular protrusion and the blocking body, the slider and the blocking body, the sealing ring and the blocking body, and the triangular connecting body and the blocking body, which further increases the difficulty of reusing the scalp needle.
