Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of medical appliances, and particularly relates to a storage device for acupuncture needles for acupuncture. Background Art

[0002] An acupuncture needle is a slender needle, usually made of stainless steel or other medical materials, and is used for traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture treatment. Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine treatment method, which adjusts the qi and blood and meridians of the human body by inserting and operating these needles at specific acupoints on the human body, so as to achieve the purpose of treating diseases and maintaining physical health.

[0003] In order to avoid cross-infection, nowadays, most acupuncture needles are disposable. Therefore, after the acupuncture needles are used, they need to be placed in a corresponding storage device for collection, such as a sharps container. However, for the existing sharps containers, when storing acupuncture needles, if the sealing cover at the opening is not closed or not closed properly, once it accidentally falls to the ground, the acupuncture needles are likely to spill out of the sharps container, thus posing a great potential safety hazard.

[0004] Therefore, it is very necessary to invent a storage device for acupuncture needles for acupuncture. Content of the Utility Model

[0020] Embodiment

[0021] Refer to Figures 1-3 , an acupuncture needle storage device for acupuncture, including a cylinder 1, wherein: a sealing cover is detachably and fixedly installed at the top end of the cylinder 1, which can prevent the acupuncture needles from spilling out of the inside of the cylinder 1 through the sealing cover during the process of storing the acupuncture needles in the cylinder 1, and at the same time is convenient for later disassembly of the sealing cover to clean the acupuncture needles inside the cylinder 1 and disinfect the inside of the cylinder 1. A conical feeding port 5 is penetrated through the sealing cover so as to put the used acupuncture needles into the cylinder 1. A guiding tube is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the sealing cover so that the acupuncture needles in the conical feeding port 5 can fall into the inside of the cylinder 1 along the guiding tube, and at the same time, without disassembling the sealing cover, prevent the acupuncture needles from coming out of the cylinder 1;

[0022] The guiding tube includes a straight tube 6 and an inclined tube 7, and the top end of the straight tube 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the sealing cover, and the bottom end of the straight tube 6 is fixedly connected to the top end of the inclined tube 7; the included angle between the straight tube 6 and the inclined tube 7 is 30 degrees to 45 degrees, and the outlet of the inclined tube 7 always faces the side wall of the cylinder 1; so that the acupuncture needles can only enter the cylinder 1 along the straight tube 6 and the inclined tube 7. Due to the setting of the outlet angle of the inclined tube 7, the acupuncture needles cannot come out of the conical feeding port 5 through the inclined tube 7 and the straight tube 6;

[0023] The straight tube 6 is below the small opening of the conical feeding port 5, and the straight tube 6 is communicated with the conical feeding port 5 and the inclined tube 7, and the straight tube 6 is coaxial with the conical feeding port 5.

[0024] The top end of the cylinder body 1 is provided with an integrated threaded port 8, and two elastic handles 9 are evenly and fixedly installed on both sides of the outer surface of the cylinder body 1, so as to provide a force application point for medical staff during the process of taking the cylinder body 1, ensure the stability during the taking process, and prevent the cylinder body 1 from accidentally slipping off and falling; the cylinder body 1 is detachably and fixedly connected to the sealing cover through the threaded port 8; so that the cylinder body 1 and the sealing cover can be disassembled and assembled.

[0025] The sealing cover includes an internal thread ring sleeve 2, a bearing 3 and a cover plate 4, and the bearing 3 is sleeved and fixedly installed inside the top end of the internal thread ring sleeve 2, and the bottom of the cover plate 4 is sleeved and fixedly installed in the inner ring of the bearing 3, so as to drive the guiding tube to rotate 360 degrees through the cover plate 4, thereby adjusting the position of the outlet of the inclined tube 7, so that the acupuncture needles fall to different positions inside the cylinder body 1, and prevent the acupuncture needles from concentrating and accumulating at one position inside the cylinder body 1; the cover plate 4 is rotatably connected to the internal thread ring sleeve 2, and the internal thread ring sleeve 2 is detachably and fixedly connected to the threaded port 8; a conical feeding port 5 is penetrated and opened at the center of the surface of the cover plate 4; the top end of the straight tube 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the cover plate 4.

[0026] It should be noted that the inner diameters of the conical feeding port 5, the straight tube 6 and the inclined tube 7 are larger than the lengths of the commonly available acupuncture needles on the market.

[0027] In this embodiment, when in use, the used acupuncture needles are placed into the conical feeding port 5. Due to the structure of the conical feeding port 5, the acupuncture needles will automatically slide into the straight tube 6 and the inclined tube 7, and finally fall into the cylinder body 1 through the inclined tube 7;

[0028] After the acupuncture needles are stored in the cylinder body 1 for a period of time, the cover plate 4 can be rotated to adjust the position of the outlet of the inclined tube 7 inside the cylinder body 1, so that the acupuncture needles evenly fall to different positions inside the cylinder body 1, thereby maximizing the utilization of the storage space inside the cylinder body 1;

[0029] If the cylinder body 1 accidentally falls to the ground during use, due to the position of the opening of the inclined tube 7, it can prevent the acupuncture needles inside the cylinder body 1 from spilling out from the conical feeding port 5; at the same time, through the setting between the sealing cover and the threaded port 8, it can prevent the sealing cover from separating from the threaded port 8, thereby preventing the acupuncture needles from falling out from the threaded port 8;

[0030] In the later stage, when the acupuncture needles stored inside the cylinder body 1 reach the required capacity, the sealing cover can be removed, and the acupuncture needles inside the cylinder body 1 can be poured into the required equipment for recycling or destruction; then the inside of the cylinder body 1 can be disinfected;

[0031] In this way, the acupuncture needle storage device for acupuncture makes the process of use safer and more reliable.

[0032] Any technical solution that uses the technical solution of the present utility model or is designed by those skilled in the art under the inspiration of the technical solution of the present utility model and achieves the above technical effects shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
