Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of veterinary acupuncture technology, and in particular, to a needle insertion device for equine bloodletting therapy. Background Technology

[0002] The information provided in this section is for the purpose of generally presenting the background of this application. To the extent described in this section, the work of the currently named inventors and aspects of the description that may not constitute prior art at the time of filing are neither explicitly nor implicitly considered to be prior art of this application.

[0003] In veterinary medicine, bloodletting therapy, also known as phlebotomy, is commonly used in the treatment of equine diseases to clear heat and toxins, promote blood circulation, and reduce swelling. It is used to treat conditions such as brain diseases, hoof and limb disorders, abdominal pain, and lymphatic circulation disorders. It can directly improve and regulate the flow of qi and blood in the local area, clear the meridians, and harmonize the qi and blood of the internal organs, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing swelling and relieving pain. The acupuncture points for bloodletting therapy are mostly located on the head, face, neck, and limbs of the affected horse.

[0004] Currently, the bloodletting therapy used by veterinarians in the treatment of equine diseases requires the use of a needle hammer to connect and fix the treatment needle. Then, the practitioner, based on their experience, swings the needle hammer to perform acupuncture at the bloodletting acupoint. This method requires a high level of skill in determining the location, proficiency in operation, control of the needle insertion depth, restraint of the horse, safety protection for both the horse and the practitioner, and sufficient space for swinging the hammer.

[0005] For example, Chinese patent publication number CN221831157U discloses an acupuncture needle inserter that can stably hold the needles, making it easy to operate and less prone to falling off. However, the existing needle inserters have relatively complex structures and high manufacturing and maintenance costs.

[0006] In practice, the disturbance caused by the needle hammer and the pain from the blood needles can irritate the horses, easily leading to panic, avoidance, and even aggression towards the practitioner. This results in low operational safety and reduced protection for both the practitioner and the horse, increasing the risk of therapeutic injuries to both.

[0007] In addition, uncontrollable factors in the bloodletting therapy procedure include the depth of needle insertion. If the needle is inserted too shallowly, it will not be able to release blood from the acupoint, causing unnecessary repetitive pain to the horse. If it is inserted too deeply, it will damage deep tissues, leading to medical accidents and harming the horse's welfare. Utility Model Content
