Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to an automatically-triggered needle protector and an insulin pen needle.

BACKGROUND

In the prior art, there are many types of needle protectors for insulin pen needles, mainly including a manual protection type and an automatic protection type. For the insulin pen needle in the manual protection type, after injection is finished, a needle protective cover needs to be manually pushed to a protection position, not facilitating operation.

Currently, trigger mechanisms in the automatic protection type are commonly achieved through the cooperation of track grooves and protrusions between needle protective covers and shells. The automatic trigger form has the defects that a structure is complex, and after the trigger, reliability is poor, and damage is likely to happen.
