[0002] Auricular acupuncture, also known as ear acupuncture or ear therapy, is a traditional Chinese medical treatment method. In Chinese medicine, the ear is regarded as a microcosm of the human body. There are acupuncture points in the ear that correspond to various organs and systems in the body. By stimulating these acupuncture points, the body's internal balance can be regulated to achieve the purpose of treating diseases and promoting health.
[0003] Traditional ear acupuncture usually involves the use of thin and long needles to pierce specific acupuncture points in the ear. However, this traditional method has certain limitations. Only one acupuncture point can be treated each time. For situations where multiple acupuncture points need to be stimulated, the acupuncture efficiency is low. The long intervals between multiple punctures may also cause patients to feel discomfort or pain. Inserting the long needle to the appropriate depth requires high operating skills from the physician, who needs to have certain experience and skills. Reusing needles may also bring the risk of cross infection and requires strict disinfection measures.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0022] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the continuous ear needle comprises five needle bodies 1 and an internally hollow shell body 2, the needle body 1 comprises an integrally formed arrow-shaped needle tip 11 and a cylindrical needle tail 12, the material of the needle body 1 is stainless steel, and a concave hole 121 is provided on the side of the needle tail 12 away from the needle tip 11, when the needle bodies 1 are connected end to end in sequence, the needle tip 11 penetrates into the concave hole 121 of the adjacent needle body 1, and the contact area between the needle tip 11 and the needle tail 12 of the adjacent needle body 1 is increased through the concave hole 121, the needle tip 11 is protected, and it is helpful to push the needle body 1, the cross-sectional area of the needle tail 12 is large, and the needle tail 12 is left outside the body, which can limit the depth of the needle body 1 penetrating into the skin and facilitate the removal of the needle body 1, thereby reducing the difficulty of ear needle operation, reducing the time interval between multiple acupunctures, and improving the acupuncture efficiency and the safety of treatment.
[0023] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the housing 2 includes a cylindrical needle storage housing 21 and a push housing 22 made of PP material. The needle storage housing 21 is provided with a needle storage cavity 211 for accommodating a plurality of needle bodies 1. A circular limiting hole 212 is provided at one end of the needle storage housing 21 close to the push housing 22. Three long strip reinforcing members 213 are integrally formed on the inner side wall of the needle storage housing 21. The reinforcing members 213 abut against the peripheral wall of the needle body 1. The reinforcing members 213 reinforce the needle body 1 in the needle storage cavity 211 to prevent the needle body 1 from falling off from the needle storage cavity 211, so that the needle body 1 maintains an orderly arrangement state of connecting end to end in the needle storage cavity 211, which is convenient for the continuous firing of the needle body 1. The push housing 22 is provided with an active cavity 221, and a driving device is arranged in the active cavity 221. The driving device includes an elastic member 3 and a push member 4. and a transmission member 5, the elastic member 3 is a spring, the pushing member 4 is provided with a transmission cavity 41, and three cracks are set at one end of the pushing member 4 close to the transmission member 5, so that the end of the transmission member 5 away from the needle body 1 can penetrate into the transmission cavity 41, and can keep the transmission member 5 and the pushing member 4 connected, and the end of the transmission member 5 away from the needle body 1 is integrally formed with a sliding block 51, and the cross-sectional area of the sliding block 51 is larger than the opening area of the transmission cavity 41 close to the end of the transmission member 5. Due to the shape and material hardness of the transmission member 5 itself, the transmission member 5 is easily damaged during the pushing process, and thus the sliding block 51 is used to make one end of the transmission member 5 in the transmission cavity 41, and then the transmission member 5 is reinforced and protected while being pushed, thereby further improving the operating efficiency of the needle.
[0024] like Figure 3-Figure 5As shown, a spacing section is provided at one end of the transmission member 5 close to the needle body 1, and the spacing section includes a number of spacing members 6 corresponding to the number of needle bodies 1. The spacing members 6 are arrow-shaped, and the length of the spacing members 6 is the same as the length of the needle body 1. Each pressing can push the needle body 1 to move a distance of the length of the needle body 1, thereby firing a needle body 1, which improves the stability and safety of the needle body 1 continuous firing operation. The elastic member 3 is sleeved on the pushing member 4, and the end of the elastic member 3 close to the needle storage shell 21 is against the needle storage shell 21. The diameter of the pushing member 4 is smaller than the inner diameter of the end of the needle storage shell 21 close to the pushing member 4. The pushing member 4 can penetrate into the end of the needle storage shell 21 close to the pushing member 4, and then push the transmission member 5, so that the spacing member 6 passes through the limiting hole 212. Since the diameter of the limiting hole 212 is smaller than the diameter of the widest part of the spacing member 6, the spacing member 6 cannot retreat after passing through the limiting hole 212, thereby enabling the needle body 1 to have sufficient support when firing continuously, further improving the convenience of the needle body 1 continuous firing operation, and improving the work efficiency of the acupuncture operation.
[0025] Working principle: Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, when acupuncture is performed, the continuous ear needle is aligned with the acupuncture point, the needle storage shell 21 is clamped, the pushing shell 22 is pressed, the pushing member 4 moves in the direction close to the needle storage shell 21, the pushing member 4 causes the transmission member 5 to move in the direction close to the needle body 1, the spacer 6 passes through the limiting hole 212, and pushes the needle body 1 to move a distance of the length of the needle body 1, and a needle body 1 is pushed out and inserted into the skin. The needle tail 12 limits the depth of the needle body 1 entering the body. When the pushing shell 22 is pressed, the elastic member 3 undergoes elastic deformation, and the pushing member 4 and the end of the needle storage shell 21 close to the transmission member 5 jointly compress the elastic member 3. After the pressing finger is released, the elastic member 3 automatically restores its original length and drives the pushing shell 22 to restore its original state, and the acupuncture point is re-determined and the above operation is repeated until the needle body 1 is used up.
