Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of acupuncture technology, and more specifically, to a suspended plastic-handled acupuncture tube needle. Background Technology

[0002] Acupuncture tube needles are a special type of needle used in acupuncture therapy. They are characterized by having the filiform needles placed inside a tubular container to facilitate operation and insertion.

[0003] In use, hold the needle tube with your left hand and quickly tap the exposed end of the needle handle with your right index or middle finger. Due to the design of the needle tube, the needle tip can quickly penetrate the subcutaneous tissue at the acupoint. Then, withdraw the needle tube and insert it into the acupoint to the desired depth. Existing acupuncture tubes require both hands to operate, which is inconvenient. Therefore, we propose a suspended plastic-handled acupuncture tube. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, adapt to the needs of reality, and provide a suspended plastic handle acupuncture tube to solve the technical problem that the current acupuncture tube requires two hands to operate, which is not very convenient.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a suspended plastic-handled acupuncture tube needle, comprising a rod, an adjusting cylinder, a piston column, a needle tube, and an acupuncture needle. The adjusting cylinder is fixed to the top of the needle tube. A gasket is fixed to the bottom of the inner part of the adjusting cylinder. Limiting rods are distributed in a ring array on the upper end face of the gasket. A piston column is slidably installed at the top of the inner part of the adjusting cylinder. A magnet is fixed to the middle of the lower end of the piston column. The lower end of the rod passes through the upper opening of the adjusting cylinder and is fixed to the top of the piston column. Top plates are fixed to both sides of the upper end of the rod. The acupuncture needle is located inside the needle tube.

[0006] In use, hold the needle tube and align it with the upper end of the acupuncture needle. The iron plate at the top of the acupuncture needle is attracted to the magnet at the bottom of the piston rod. Then, hook the lower side of the top plate with your middle and index fingers and pull the rod. The rod moves the piston rod upward, which in turn moves the acupuncture needle upward, allowing the bottom of the needle to enter the needle tube. When the rubber ring at the bottom of the rod is compressed and deformed, it rises from inside the adjusting cylinder to the top of the adjusting cylinder and stops. The spring then stretches out. At this point, hold the outside of the needle tube with one hand and align the bottom of the needle tube with the acupoint on the patient's body surface. Then, press the top of the rod with your thumb to press the rubber ring back into the adjusting cylinder. The spring then rebounds, causing the piston rod to descend rapidly. The acupuncture needle descends rapidly and vertically, inserting its lower end into the patient's acupoint. After separating the needle tube, the insertion depth is manually adjusted by kneading. This device has a simple structure and gradual operation. The automatic pressing-type needle insertion method allows the operator to perform rapid single-handed operation, reducing the difficulty of operation. During the needle installation process, the needle handle at the top enters through the guide groove. The inclined surface of the guide groove guides the needle handle into the space between the limiting rods. Then, when the piston column rises, it drives the entire needle handle into the limiting rod, which limits and corrects the position of the needle handle. At this time, the acupuncture needle is centered and vertically positioned inside the needle tube of this device, ensuring the verticality and accuracy of subsequent acupuncture and ensuring the quality of acupuncture treatment.

[0007] Preferably, a guide groove is provided in the middle of the gasket, and the guide groove is designed to be inclined, with the upper end of the guide groove corresponding to the limiting rod.

[0008] Preferably, the lower end of the piston rod has a ring array of limiting holes, and the upper end of the limiting rod is inserted into the limiting holes.

[0009] Preferably, a rubber ring is fitted and fixed to the outer side of the lower end of the column rod, and the rubber ring is adapted to the upper opening of the adjusting cylinder.

[0010] Preferably, the upper end of the acupuncture needle is fixed with a needle handle, and the needle handle is made of polyethylene material, with an iron plate embedded in the upper end of the needle handle.

[0011] Preferably, the iron sheet at the upper end of the needle handle is attracted and connected to the magnet at the lower end of the piston rod, and the cavity formed by the needle handle and the limiting rod is adapted to each other.

[0012] Preferably, the piston rod and the gasket are connected by a spring, and the spring is located outside the limiting rod.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. This utility model designs a piston column to connect the needle tube to the upper end of the acupuncture needle. The iron plate at the top of the acupuncture needle is attracted to the magnet at the bottom of the piston column. Then, the middle and index fingers hook the lower side of the top plate and pull the column rod. The column rod drives the piston column to rise, and the piston column drives the acupuncture needle to rise, so that the bottom of the acupuncture needle enters the interior of the needle tube. When the rubber ring at the bottom of the column rod is squeezed and deformed and rises from inside the adjusting cylinder to the top of the adjusting cylinder, it stops. The spring stretches and unfolds. At this time, the outside of the needle tube is held with one hand, and the bottom of the needle tube is aligned with the acupoint on the patient's body surface. Then, the thumb presses the top of the column rod to press the rubber ring back into the adjusting cylinder. At this time, the spring rebounds and drives the piston column to descend rapidly. The piston column drives the acupuncture needle to descend rapidly and vertically, so that the lower end of the acupuncture needle is inserted into the patient's acupoint. After separating the needle tube, the insertion depth of the acupuncture needle is manually adjusted by kneading. This device has a simple structure and gradual operation. The automatic pressing needle insertion method makes it easy for the operator to perform one-handed operation quickly and reduces the difficulty of operation.

[0015] 2. This utility model also incorporates a gasket design. During the installation of the acupuncture needle, the needle handle at the top of the needle enters through the guide groove. The inclined surface of the guide groove allows the needle handle to enter between the limiting rods. Then, when the piston column rises and drives the entire needle handle into the limiting rod, the limiting rod limits the needle handle to correct its position. At this time, the acupuncture needle is centered and vertically positioned inside the needle tube of this device, ensuring the verticality and accuracy of subsequent needle insertion and ensuring the quality of needle application.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model relates to a suspended plastic-handled acupuncture tube needle, comprising a rod 1, an adjusting cylinder 2, a piston rod 201, a needle tube 3, and an acupuncture needle 4. The adjusting cylinder 2 is fixed to the top of the needle tube 3. A gasket 202 is fixed to the bottom of the inner part of the adjusting cylinder 2. Limiting rods 204 are distributed in a ring array on the upper end surface of the gasket 202. A guide groove 205 is provided in the middle of the gasket 202, and the guide groove 205 is inclined. The upper end of the guide groove 205 corresponds to the limiting rods 204. The piston rod 201 is slidably installed at the top of the inner part of the adjusting cylinder 2. Limiting holes 20 are formed in a ring array at the lower end of the piston rod 201. 7. The upper end of the limiting rod 204 is inserted into the limiting hole 207. The limiting hole 207 provides space for the movement of the limiting rod 204. At the same time, the limiting rod 204 and the limiting hole 207 cooperate to limit the movement. The upper end of the acupuncture needle 4 is fixed with a needle handle 401, which is made of polyethylene. An iron piece 402 is embedded in the upper end of the needle handle 401. The iron piece 402 at the upper end of the needle handle 401 is attracted and connected to the magnet block 206 at the lower end of the piston column 201. The cavity formed by the needle handle 401 and the limiting rod 204 is compatible. The attracted connection is easy to separate and can be used for positioning when assembling the acupuncture needle 4.

[0025] like Figures 2 to 7 As shown, this utility model relates to a suspended plastic-handled acupuncture tube needle, including a rod 1, an adjusting cylinder 2, a piston rod 201, a needle tube 3, and an acupuncture needle 4. A magnet 206 is fixed at the middle of the lower end of the piston rod 201. The lower end of the rod 1 passes through the upper opening of the adjusting cylinder 2 and is fixed to the top of the piston rod 201. Top plates 101 are fixed on both sides of the upper end of the rod 1. The piston rod 201 and the gasket 202 are connected by a spring 203, and the spring 203 is located at the limit rod. On the outside of 204, a rubber ring 102 is fixedly sleeved on the lower outer side of the rod 1, and the rubber ring 102 is adapted to the upper opening of the adjusting cylinder 2. After the rubber ring 102 is located on the upper side of the adjusting cylinder 2, it positions the height of the piston rod 201. The resistance between the rubber ring 102 and the upper opening of the adjusting cylinder 2 is greater than the traction force of the spring 203. When the rubber ring 102 is pressed to pass through the upper opening of the adjusting cylinder 2, the spring 203 rebounds to reset the height of the piston rod 201. The acupuncture needle 4 is located inside the needle tube 3.

[0026] Working Principle: This embodiment provides a suspended plastic-handled acupuncture tube. In use, hold the needle tube 3 and connect it to the upper end of the acupuncture needle 4. The iron plate 402 at the top of the acupuncture needle 4 is attracted to the magnet 206 at the bottom of the piston column 201. Then, hook the lower side of the top plate 101 with your middle and index fingers and pull the rod 1. The rod 1 drives the piston column 201 to rise, which in turn drives the acupuncture needle 4 to rise, allowing the bottom of the acupuncture needle 4 to enter the interior of the needle tube 3. When the rubber ring 102 at the bottom of the rod 1 is compressed and deformed, it rises from inside the adjusting cylinder 2 to the top of the adjusting cylinder 2 and stops. The spring 203 then stretches out. At this point, hold the outside of the needle tube 3 with one hand, aligning the bottom of the needle tube 3 with the acupoint on the patient's body surface, and then press the rod with your thumb. 1. Press the rubber ring 102 back into the adjusting cylinder 2. At this time, the spring 203 rebounds and drives the piston column 201 to descend rapidly. The piston column 201 drives the acupuncture needle 4 to descend rapidly and vertically, so that the lower end of the acupuncture needle 4 is inserted into the patient's acupoint. After separating the needle tube 3, manually knead and adjust the insertion depth of the acupuncture needle 4. During the installation of the acupuncture needle 4, the needle handle 401 at the top of the acupuncture needle 4 enters from the guide groove 205. Through the inclined surface of the guide groove 205, the needle handle 401 enters between the limiting rods 204. Then, when the piston column 201 rises and drives the needle handle 401 to enter the limiting rod 204 as a whole, the limiting rod 204 limits the needle handle 401 to correct its position. At this time, the acupuncture needle 4 is centered and vertically located inside the needle tube 3 of this device.
