Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	This disclosure describes an device for dispensing an acupuncture needle. The device comprises a thrust, a coupling mechanism coupled to the thrust, a biasing mechanism adapted to bias the thrust towards an initial position, a housing, and a conduit. The housing comprises a first cavity portion adapted to receive the thrust, the coupling mechanism and the biasing mechanism, and a second cavity portion in fluid communication with the first cavity portion. The second cavity portion has a smaller cross-sectional area than the first cavity portion, and the thrust is received in the first cavity portion. The conduit is adapted to guide an acupuncture needle toward the coupling mechanism disposed within the housing. This disclosure further describes a method of using said device for inserting an acupuncture needle into the dermis of a subject.
