Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of acupuncture, in particular to an acupuncture needle. Background Art

[0002] With the development of acupuncture technology, there are many types of acupuncture needles, including cicada needles, fine needles, large needles, low-pitched needles, lanceolate needles, round needles, sharp needles, round-sharp needles, long needles, etc. Acupuncture needles are fine and soft. After acupuncture, all acupuncture needles need to be recovered, which may easily lead to missing needles on the patient, which not only affects the acupuncture effect, but also causes safety hazards. For this reason, the utility model proposes an acupuncture needle that is easy to observe and not easy to miss. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides an acupuncture needle, which has a simple structure and is convenient for promotion.

[0004] An acupuncture needle comprises a needle body and a needle handle; an elastic seat is fixed on the top of the needle handle, and a hollow air bag is fixed on the elastic seat;

[0005] The needle body is provided with a scale line.

[0006] The elastic seat is a spring ring.

[0007] Preferably, a positioning block is connected to the elastic seat via a cotton thread.

[0008] Preferably, the positioning block is made of a transparent material, and a through hole is provided at the center of the positioning block.

[0009] Preferably, the needle body is a steel needle, and the surface of the steel needle is covered with a protective layer.

[0010] Preferably, the surface of the hollow airbag is coated with a brightly colored coating.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0012] The acupuncture needle of the utility model is provided with a colored hollow air bag, which is convenient for observing the position of the acupuncture needle and avoiding the situation that the needle is missed on the patient after the treatment. The positioning block can be used for locating the acupoints, which is convenient for acupuncture operation and is safe and convenient. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the utility model, the drawings required for use in the embodiments will be briefly introduced below. It should be understood that the following drawings only show certain embodiments of the utility model and therefore should not be regarded as limiting the scope. For ordinary technicians in this field, other relevant drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without paying creative work.

[0015] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the positioning block;

[0016] 1-needle body, 2-needle handle, 3-elastic seat, 4-hollow air bag, 5-cotton thread, 6-positioning block, 7-through hole. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the utility model described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0018] In the description of the embodiments of the present utility model, it should be noted that if the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc. appear, the orientation or position relationship indicated is based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or is the orientation or position relationship in which the utility model product is usually placed when used. It is only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present utility model.

[0019] As shown in the accompanying drawings, an acupuncture needle comprises a needle body 1 and a needle handle 2. The needle body 1 is a steel needle, and the surface of the steel needle is covered with a protective layer, which has the ability to resist high temperature, crack and mildew. A scale line is provided on the needle body 1, and the insertion depth of the acupuncture needle can be observed;

[0020] An elastic seat 3 is fixed on the top of the needle handle 2, and a hollow air bag 4 is fixed on the elastic seat 3; the surface of the hollow air bag 4 is coated with a brightly colored coating.

[0021] The elastic seat is a spring coil, and the pressure of the air bag on the spring can be seen from the degree of compression of the spring, which can prevent the weight of the hollow air bag from increasing due to aging and other problems, thereby increasing the pressure on the needle body and the acupoint, affecting the treatment effect. The diameter of the hollow air bag is larger than the diameter of the elastic coil, which is convenient for observing the position of the needle and avoiding the situation where the needle is missed on the patient after the treatment.

[0022] The elastic seat 3 is connected with a positioning block 6 through a cotton thread 5. The positioning block 6 is made of a transparent material, and a through hole 7 is provided in the center of the positioning block 6. When in use, the positioning block 6 can be used to locate the acupoint on the patient. After the acupoint is accurately found, the positioning block is placed on the acupoint, and its through hole corresponds to the acupoint, and then the needle body can be inserted into the through hole. The operation is simple, safe and convenient.

[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model patent and is not intended to limit the present utility model patent. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model patent shall be included in the protection scope of the present utility model patent.
