Abstract

A disposable automatic painless safe hemostix includes an outer casing, an inner sleeve, a needle module and a spring. The needle module is snapped in the inner sleeve and the outer casing. The needle module has a needle point protecting pole. Interlock fixing faces and protrusions are provided on the inner sleeve. Interlock guiding slopes and protrusion stoppers are provided on the inner wall of the outer casing. One end of the interlock engages the interlock fixing face, and the other end engages the interlock guiding slope.
