Abstract
A medical anesthetic needle (1) is provided that includes an inner needle (3) of a straight needle shape, having a pencil-pointed tip (4), and an outer needle (2) of a straight tubular shape, having the inner needle inserted thereinto and therethrough from the rear end thereof. A foremost-end part (12) of a hollow, truncated conical shape or the like of the outer needle (2) is formed so that the minimum inner diameter thereof is smaller than the outer diameter of the main body (5) of the inner needle (3). When the inner needle (3) is inserted into and through the outer needle (2), the circumferential fore-end edge of the foremost-end part (12) is in close contact with the circumferential surface of the tip (4) or the main body (5) of the inner needle (3), and no gaps are thus formed therebetween. Therefore, when needled, a patient's nervous tissue is unlikely to be nipped in a gap between the inner and outer needles to cause pain to the patient.
Description
- The present invention relates to a medical anesthetic needle including an inner needle, having a pencil-pointed tip, and a tubular outer needle, having the inner needle inserted thereinto and therethrough.
- Conventional inner needles, having a pencil-pointed tip (4), of anesthetic needles, were inserted into and through a straight-tubular outer needle having its fore-end section formed in a tapered shape tapering off towards the end thereof, i.e., a hollow, truncated conical shape. The fore-end part of the outer needle was deburred, but relatively sharp, therefore resulting in patients often feeling pain when needled. An anesthetic needle for easing such pain is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model No. 3018360 where the fore-end section of a tubular outer needle has the edge formed round on the right-angled cut fore-end face thereof
- With an anesthetic needle with the fore-end section of a tubular outer needle thereof having the edge formed round on the right-angled cut fore-end face, the patient's pain when needled was eased, in comparison with an anesthetic needle having a sharp-edged fore-end section of its tubular outer needle. However, the extent of its pain easing was not enough.
- The cause of a patient feeling pain when needled, even though the fore-end part of the tubular outer needle is formed round, is a gap between the fore-end section of its outer needle and its inner needle. The difference between the outer diameter of the inner needle and the inner diameter of the outer needle is around 0.05 to 0.1 mm, depending on the needle size. Thus, a gap of a maximum width of 0.05 to 0.1 mm may be formed since the inner needle tends to be decentered relative to the outer needle when needling. When a patient's nervous tissue is nipped in this gap, the patient feels pain.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a medical anesthetic needle including an inner needle of a straight needle shape, having a pencil-pointed tip, and an outer needle of a straight tubular shape, having the inner needle inserted thereinto and therethrough, wherein the medical anesthetic needle is capable of easing enough a patient's pain when needled.
- To accomplish the object, a medical anesthetic needle, according to claim 1, of the present invention includes an inner needle of a straight needle shape, having a pencil-pointed tip, and an outer needle of a straight tubular shape, having the inner needle inserted thereinto and therethrough, wherein the fore-end part of the outer needle is formed in a tapered shape tapering off towards the end thereof, i.e., a hollow, truncated conical shape or the like. Furthermore, the foremost section of the fore-end part is formed as a foremost-end part so that the minimum inner diameter of the foremost-end part is smaller than the outer diameter of a section of the inner needle excluding the tip, i.e., a main body of the inner needle.
- The foremost-end part of the outer needle may be applied only with deburring so that the edge of its right-angled cut fore-end face is left sharp. If required, the foremost-end part may have the edge of its right-angled cut fore-end face worked to be round.
- With an anesthetic needle of the present invention, when a patient is needled, the foremost-end part of its outer needle is located on the circumferential surface of either a section near the root of the tip or the main body of the inner needle where the outer diameter of the inner needle is equal to or greater than the minimum inner diameter of the foremost-end part of the outer needle. Thus, no gaps, are formed at all between the foremost-end part of the outer needle and the inner needle. Therefore, the patient is not likely at all to feel pain caused by the patient's nervous tissue being nipped between the outer and inner needles.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view showing an external appearance of a medical anesthetic needle of an embodiment of the present invention,
- FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the fore-end section of the medical anesthetic needle of FIG. 1, as enlarged,
- FIG. 3 is a view showing a working process for the fore-end section of the outer needle of FIG. 2, and
- FIG. 4 is a view corresponding to FIG. 2, of another embodiment.
- As shown in FIG. 1, an anesthetic needle1 includes a hollow
outer needle 2 made of stainless steel tube and a solidinner needle 3 made of stainless steel bar. The rear end of theouter needle 2 is fixed to aneedle base 6. Theinner needle 3 is inserted through a needle hole of theneedle base 6 into theouter needle 2. Atip 4 of theinner needle 3 that protrudes from the fore end of theouter needle 2 is of a pencil-pointed shape, i.e., a conical shape. Acap 7 is fixed to the rear end of theinner needle 3, where a spiral-shapedfemale screw part 9 is formed on the internal circumferential surface of thecap 7. A spiral-shapedmale screw part 8 that engage's with thefemale screw part 9 of thecap 7, is disposed on a section protruding from the rear end of theneedle base 6. When inserting the anesthetic needle, themale screw part 8 is screwed into thefemale screw part 9 to the limit, to define the axial limit position of theinner needle 3 relative to theouter needle 2. - As shown in FIG. 2, the
inner needle 3 includes amain body 5 of a round-column shape having a diameter d, and thetip 4 of the conical shape protruding axially from themain body 5 towards the fore-end side thereof. Theouter needle 2 includes amain body 10 of a round cylindrical shape having an inner diameter D slightly greater than the diameter d of themain body 5 of the inner needle, a fore-end part 11 of a tapered shape tapering off and extending towards the fore-end side thereof, i.e., a hollow, truncated conical shape, and a foremost-end part 12 of a tapered shape further tapering off and extending from the fore-end part 11 towards the fore-end side thereof, i.e., a hollow, truncated conical shape. While the inner diameter of the fore-end part 11 is constant and equal to the inner diameter of themain body 10, the inner diameter of the foremost-end part 12 is gradually reduced along the axis thereof towards the fore-end side thereof with the minimum inner diameter thereof being slightly smaller than the outer diameter d of themain body 5 of the inner needle. While the outer diameter of the fore-end part 11 is equal to the outer diameter of themain body 10 at the joining section thereof with themain body 10, the outer diameter is continuously reduced from that section towards the fore-end side. While the outer diameter of the foremost-end part 12 is equal to the outer diameter of the fore-end part 11 at the joining section thereof with the fore-end part 11, the outer diameter is continuously reduced from that section towards the fore-end side, and is equal to the inner diameter at the foremost-end. The axial length of the foremost-end part 12 is smaller the axial length of the fore-end part 11. The inclination angle of the internal circumferential conical surface of the foremost-end part 12 is equal to or slightly, greater than the inclination angle of the conical surface of thetip 4 of theinner needle 3. - FIGS. 1 and 2 show a state of the
female screw part 9 of thecap 7 being screwed onto themale screw part 8 of theneedle base 6 to the limit, i.e., the state of the anesthetic needle 1 when needling, where the foremost-end part 12 is located on the circumferential surface, having an outer diameter d1, of thetip 4 of theinner needle 3. Although the outer diameter d1 is smaller than the outer diameter d of themain body 5 of the inner needle, the outer diameter d1 is equal to or greater than the minimum inner diameter D1, which will be described later, of the foremost-end part 12 of the outer needle. Therefore, the circumferential fore-end edge of the foremost-end part 12, having an inner diameter equal to the minimum inner diameter, comes in close contact with the entire circumferential surface near the root of thetip 4, having the diameter d1, with circumferential fore-end edge either being kept as it is or elastically expanded. As a result, no gaps are formed between the circumferential surface of thetip 4 and the foremost-end part 12. - FIG. 3 is a view showing a process of forming the fore-end part11 and the foremost-
end part 12 of theouter needle 2. The corner of a fore-end part of a stainless steel tube M having an inner diameter D, as shown in FIG. 3(a), is machine-cut to form amain body 10 of a hollow, round cylindrical shape and a sharp-edged fore-end part 11 of a hollow, truncated conical shape, as shown in FIG. 3(b). At this time, burr caused on the foremost end is removed by grinding. If required, the foremost end is finished so that the foremost end is round in a sectional plane containing the axis. Next, as shown in FIG. 3(c), the foremost-end section of the fore-end part 11 is roll-worked by squeezing so that the minimum inner diameter D1 is obtained that is smaller than the outer diameter of the main body of the inner needle, thereby forming the foremost-end part 12 of a hollow, truncated conical shape. - When a patient is needled with the anesthetic needle of FIG. 2, the internal circumferential fore-end edge of the foremost-
end part 12 of theouter needle 2 comes in close contact with the circumferential surface, on the entire circumference thereof, of the conical-shaped tip 4 of theinner needle 3, and no gaps are thus formed between the foremost-end part 12 of theouter needle 2 and thetip 4 of theinner needle 3; therefore, the patient's nervous tissue is not likely at all to be nipped in a gap therebetween to cause any particular pain to the patient. - Although the anesthetic needle of FIG. 2 is arranged such that the foremost-
end part 12 of theouter needle 2 is located on thetip 4 when the cap at the rear end of the inner needle is engaged with the needle base at the rear end of the outer needle, it also can be arranged such that the foremost-end part 12 of theouter needle 2 is located not on thetip 4 but on themain body 5, positioned behind thetip 4, of theinner needle 3 when the cap at the rear end of the inner needle is fully engaged to the limit with the needle base at the rear end of the outer needle so as to keep the inner needle from coming out of the outer needle. - With an anesthetic needle shown in FIG. 4, when needling, since the fore-end section of the
outer needle 2 has its inner diameter expanded due to elastic deformation, and the circumferential fore-end edge of the foremost-end part 12 comes in close contact with the circumferential surface of themain body 5 of theinner needle 3, due to the resilience, no gaps are thus formed at all between the foremost-end part 12 and theinner needle 3. Therefore, similarly to the embodiment described earlier, the patient's nervous tissue is not likely to be nipped in a gap between theouter needle 2 andinner needle 3, whereby the patient cannot feel any particular pain by any means.
