Abstract
The present invention relates to a subcutaneous needle in which a needle body and an adhesive tape are reliably secured together with a resin material enabling the operation to be correctly executed, and a method of producing the same. The subcutaneous needle is constituted by an adhesive tape, a separate paper, a needle body and a resin material. The adhesive tape has a hole formed in the central portion and has an adhesive surface on one side thereof. The separate paper has a hole in the central portion and is stuck on the adhesive surface of the adhesive tape. The needle body is bent in an L-shape and its top end side protrudes penetrating through the holes of the adhesive tape and of the separate paper. The base end side of the needle body is arranged nearly in parallel with a nonadhesive surface of the adhesive tape. The resin material is injection-molded onto the nonadhesive surface of the adhesive tape so as to cover and secure the base end side of the needle body.
