[0004] However, due to the setting of the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion of the release paper (a cutting line is formed between them, and the cutting line is communicated with the through hole) in such press-needle and its components, especially it must have a set of structures for carrying the treatment main body (such as release paper, adhesive member, needle body, fixing member, etc.): a housing, a receiving groove (the receiving groove includes an inclined portion and a flat portion, the inclined portion is connected to the flat portion, the inclined portion extends along the lower side of the flat portion, and the cutting line is located at the connection between the inclined portion and the flat portion), the structure is very complex, the manufacturing process is cumbersome, the manufacturing cost (including manufacturing equipment and facilities) and material cost are relatively high. In addition, the operation process during acupuncture embedding is also relatively complicated. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and propose a simple component of a press-needle. Through the ingenious combination of the press-needle and an easily detachable carrier, it can not only simplify the manufacturing process, reduce the manufacturing cost and material cost, but also be conveniently applied, maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of each application individual, and reduce the cost for the treatment and health care of the general public and the popularization and application of traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A simple component of a press needle includes a separable carrier. The separable carrier is composed of one or more components that are sleeved or bonded together, or the separable carrier is made into an integral separable carrier with virtual cutting, semi-breaking, or dotted-line connections. It also includes a medical tape and one or more press needles fixed in the medical tape. The medical tape adheres and fixes the press needles on the separable carrier.

[0008] The separable carrier is composed of a separable carrier main body and one or more needle-embedding operation parts of the separable carrier. A sleeved connection or a bonded connection is adopted between the carrier main body and the needle-embedding operation part, or a virtual cutting, semi-breaking, or dotted-line (separated but still connected) integral connection is made between the separable carrier main body and the needle-embedding operation part of the separable carrier.

[0009] There is a release material layer on the separable carrier (i.e., the surface where the press needle is pasted with the tape). The release material layer is: a layer of release agent is coated on the surface (such as silicone oil-based release agents like silicone, silicone ketone, etc., wax-based release agents like paraffin, beeswax, palm wax, etc.), or a layer of release paper or release film is pasted (such as release film, release paper, etc.).

[0010] The separable carrier is a release material, that is, the separable carrier itself has a release function, and it can achieve the effect of being easily separated from the tape without adding other release material layers on its surface.

[0011] There is one or more through holes in the separable carrier that can accommodate the press needle body, or there is one or more blind holes or cavities in the separable carrier that can accommodate the press needle body, or the hole in the separable carrier that can accommodate the press needle body is formed after the press needle body is inserted.

[0012] Preferably, the back surface (the non-tape press needle pasting surface) of the separable carrier with one or more through holes can be covered by pasting a layer of film (or tape) on the through holes, so as to shield one or more needle-embedding operation bodies, which is beneficial for when there are multiple needle-embedding operation bodies on the separable carrier, after some needle-embedding operation bodies are operated, the remaining unoperated needle-embedding operation bodies are still shielded, not affected, and clean and hygienic.

[0013] Preferably, the separable carrier is made of materials such as foam, sponge, rubber, plastic, silicone, plastic, paper, etc.

[0014] Preferably, the medical tape and the press needles are arranged and fixed on the separable carrier in an array.

[0015] The press needle device includes one or more needle bodies, the needle bodies are connected with needle handles, and the needle bodies or the needle bodies and the needle handles are fixed in a medical tape or fixed on the medical tape by dispensing glue.

[0016] Preferably, the connection between the needle body and the needle handle can be integrally formed (formed by winding a stainless steel wire), or the needle body and the needle handle are fixedly connected by welding, bonding, buckling, riveting, plastic curing, glue curing or other methods, and then fixed in a press cloth to form an integral structure; or the tails of the needle bodies are fixedly connected with the tape by welding, bonding, buckling, riveting, dispensing glue or other methods, so that the needle bodies and the medical tape form an integral structure.

[0017] Preferably, the medical tape is a conductive medical tape with conductive properties, or the tape is a medical tape without conductive properties, or part of the tape is a conductive medical tape with conductive properties and part is a medical tape without conductive properties, or part of the medical tape is a tape or non-tape conductive material and part is a medical tape without conductive properties.

[0018] Preferably, more than one layer of the medical tape is used.

[0019] Preferably, when two layers of the medical tape are used, the medical tape includes a first tape layer and a second tape layer. The needle handle is fixed between the first tape layer and the second tape layer. The needle body passes through the second tape layer or the first tape layer. The first tape layer is a medical tape without conductive properties, or the first tape layer is a medical tape with conductive properties; the second tape layer is a medical tape without conductive properties, or the second tape layer is a medical tape with conductive properties or a conductive material.

[0020] Preferably, for the back layer (the non-tape press needle sticking surface) of the product of the present invention, if it is a medical tape without conductive properties, a back layer glue electrical connection hole can also be made. This hole can supply the electrode piece of the electro-acupuncture instrument to stick to the conductive part of the product of the present invention for use during electro-acupuncture.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0022] 1. Especially by omitting the shell, the production cost (including production equipment and facilities), the production process, and the material cost of the very complex structure of the receiving groove (the receiving groove includes an inclined part and a flat part, the inclined part is connected with the flat part, the inclined part extends along the lower side of the flat part, and the cutting line is located at the connection of the inclined part and the flat part).

[0023] 2. Simplify the operation when implementing subcutaneous acupuncture, making the operation more convenient. It only requires separating the subcutaneous acupuncture operation part of the separable carrier with the press needle medical tape fixed thereon from the separable carrier body (at this time, most of the press needle body and the medical tape are exposed, while a small part of the medical tape is still adhered to the subcutaneous acupuncture operation part of the separable carrier), then the exposed press needle body and the medical tape can be used to perform subcutaneous acupuncture on the required acupoints, and finally, the subcutaneous acupuncture operation part of the separable carrier adhered to a small part of the medical tape is removed and the medical tape is flattened.

[0024] 3. Since the press needle body is placed in non-through holes or on the back of the separable carrier of the press needle with the needle body placed in through holes (not the intradermal needle and the tape adhesive layer), one or more through holes of the separable carrier are covered with a layer of tape or film; this can shield one or more subcutaneous acupuncture operation bodies, thus being beneficial for the separable carrier with multiple subcutaneous acupuncture operation bodies. After some of the subcutaneous acupuncture operation bodies are operated, the remaining unoperated subcutaneous acupuncture operation bodies are still shielded, unaffected, and clean and hygienic.

[0025] These features and advantages of the present utility model will be elaborated in detail in the following specific embodiments and drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0041] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, this embodiment provides a simple press needle assembly, which includes a medical tape 2 and one or more press needle devices 1 fixed in the medical tape 2, and a separable carrier 3 for fixing the medical tape 2 and the press needle devices 1. The medical tape 2 adheres and fixes the press needle devices 1 on the separable carrier 3. The separable carrier 3 is formed by one or more components being sleeved or bonded together, or the separable carrier is made into an integral separable carrier 3 with virtual cuts, semi-breaks or dotted-line connections. After adopting the above-mentioned simple press needle assembly, the manufacturing costs (including manufacturing equipment and facilities), manufacturing process and material costs of the complex structure of the housing, the receiving groove (the receiving groove includes an inclined part and a flat part, the inclined part is connected to the flat part, the inclined part extends along the lower side of the flat part, and the cutting line is located at the connection between the inclined part and the flat part) are omitted. The operation during the implementation of needle embedding is simplified, making the operation more convenient. It only needs to separate the needle-embedding operation part of the separable carrier with the medical tape fixed with the press needle from the separable carrier main body (at this time, most of the press needle body and the medical tape are exposed, while a small part of the medical tape is still adhered to the needle-embedding operation part of the separable carrier), and then the exposed press needle body and the medical tape can be used to perform needle embedding on the required acupoints. Finally, the needle-embedding operation part of the separable carrier adhered to a small part of the medical tape is removed, and the medical tape is flattened. Since the press needle body is placed in different acupoints, or a layer of tape or film is used to cover one or more through holes on the back of the separable carrier of the press needle with the needle body placed in the through hole (as Figure 4 shown); this can shield one or more needle-embedding operation bodies, so that when the separable carrier with multiple needle-embedding operation bodies has part of the needle-embedding operation bodies operated, the remaining unoperated needle-embedding operation bodies are still shielded and are not affected and are clean and hygienic.

[0042] There is a layer of release material 303 on the easily removable carrier 3 (i.e. the surface where the push pin and the tape are adhered). The release material layer 303 is: a layer of release agent (such as silicone oil release agents such as silicone and silicone, wax release agents such as paraffin, beeswax, palm wax, etc.) is coated on the surface, or a layer of release film 303 (such as release film, release paper, etc.) is adhered.

[0043] It can be understood that the easily detachable carrier 3 is composed of an easily detachable carrier body 301 and one or more easily detachable carriers' needle embedding operating parts 302. The needle embedding operating parts 302 can be directly uncovered when in use. There is a layer of release material layer 303 on the easily detachable carrier 3 (i.e., the surface where the needle is pressed and the tape is adhered). When the needle embedding operating part 302 is uncovered, the release material layer 303 is also uncovered. When the release material layer 303 is uncovered, the medical tape 2 is also uncovered, along with the needle 1 fixed on the medical tape 2.

[0044] The easily-separable carrier 3 is a release material, that is, the easily-separable carrier 3 itself is a material having the same properties as the release material layer, and there is no need to add a release material layer on its surface to achieve the effect of being easily separated from the tape. The release material is a material with anti-stickiness, such as glassine paperboard, CCK kaolin-coated paperboard, plastic board, polyester board, etc.

[0045] The easily-detachable carrier 3 may also be sandblasted on its surface: sand or other hard particles are sprayed onto the surface of an object by sandblasting to reduce adhesion.

[0046] The easily detachable carrier 3 is composed of an easily detachable carrier body 301 and one or more easily detachable carrier needle embedding operation parts 302 .

[0047] like Figure 5 As shown, the carrier body 301 and the needle embedding operating part 302 are connected by a sleeve connection (i.e. a mechanical connection that can be separated by a relatively small finger force) or an adhesive connection (i.e. a chemical connection that can be separated by a relatively small finger force), or the easily separable carrier body 301 and the needle embedding operating part 302 of the easily separable carrier are made into an integral connection in the shape of a virtual cut, a half break or a dotted line (i.e. a connection that is connected in a way that is easily separable by a relatively small finger force).

[0048] The easily detachable carrier 3 has one or more through holes for accommodating the pressing needle body 102.

[0049] It is also understandable that Figure 3 As shown, the easily detachable carrier has one or more blind holes 4 which can accommodate the pressing needle body.

[0050] The back surface (non-tape press needle sticking surface) of the easily detachable carrier 3 having one or more through holes can be covered by pasting a thin film (or tape) 5 on the through holes, so as to shield one or more buried needle operation bodies, which is beneficial for the easily detachable carrier 3 with multiple buried needle operation bodies. After some of the buried needle operation bodies are operated, the remaining unoperated buried needle operation bodies are still shielded, unaffected, and clean and hygienic.

[0051] The easily detachable carrier 3 is made of materials such as foam, sponge, rubber, plastic, silica gel, plastic, paper and other plates.

[0052] The medical tape 2 and the press needle tool 1 are arranged and fixed on the easily detachable carrier 3 in an array.

[0053] The press needle tool 1 includes one or more needle bodies 102, the needle body 102 is connected with a needle handle 101, and the needle body 102 or the needle body 102 and the needle handle 101 are fixed in the medical tape 2.

[0054] The medical tape 2 is a conductive medical tape with conductive properties, or the medical tape 2 is a medical tape without conductive properties, or part of the medical tape 2 is a conductive medical tape with conductive properties and part is a medical tape without conductive properties, or part of the medical tape is a tape or non-tape conductive material and part is a medical tape without conductive properties.

[0055] More than one layer of medical tape is used. In this embodiment, Figure 6 A single-layer tape is used to fix the press needle tool. And Figure 7 When a double-layer tape is used to fix the press needle tool, when the medical tape 2 uses two layers, the tape 2 includes a first tape layer 201 and a second tape layer 202. The needle handle 101 is fixed between the first tape layer 201 and the second tape layer 202, and the needle body 102 passes through the second tape layer 202 or through the first tape layer 201. The first tape layer 201 uses a medical tape without conductive properties, or the first tape layer 201 uses a medical tape with conductive properties; the second tape layer 202 uses a medical tape without conductive properties, or the second tape layer 202 uses a medical tape with conductive properties or a conductive material.

[0056] As Figure 8 shown, the back layer (non-tape press needle sticking surface) of the product of the present utility model, if it is a medical tape without conductive properties, can also be provided with a back layer tape electrical connection hole 6, which can supply the electrode piece of the electro-acupuncture instrument to paste the conductive part of the product of the present utility model for use during electro-acupuncture.

[0057] The product made according to the aforementioned procedure of the present utility model, after being hermetically packaged, sterilized and then put on the market for standby; when in use, unseal the package as needed, and perform the embedded needle treatment according to the acupoints in accordance with the conventional acupuncture embedded needle regulations of traditional Chinese medicine. In addition, if an electro-acupuncture instrument is also needed, just paste the electrode pads of the electro-acupuncture instrument on the back of the conductive tape or on the electrical connection holes of the non-conductive back layer tape, and then perform the treatment according to the operating procedures of the electro-acupuncture instrument. After the pulsed electro-acupuncture treatment, the electrode pads can be removed, and the press needle can still continue to perform the embedded needle treatment for 24 hours per day and be removed until the prescribed period of the doctor's advice.

[0058] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and thus do not limit the patent protection scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformation made by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present utility model, directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, shall be included in the protection scope of the present utility model by the same token.
