Before the invention is used, the air outlet of the air pump with set pressure is connected to the air inlet port 101 on the back cover 10 of the machine body, and the microneedle patch is also attached to the target skin;
when in use: firstly, a user holds the machine body 15 by both hands and presses down the pressure release valve 5, and the pressure chamber 2 is communicated with the atmosphere at the moment, so that the air bag 3 can freely compress the air in the air bag, and the machine body 15 is vertically close to the skin at the moment, so that the air bag 3 deforms and is attached to the skin contour, and then the pressure release valve 5 is released, and the air bag 3 is locked in a space state reflecting the skin contour by air pressure at the moment;
Step two, the start switch 9 is pressed for a short time, and the indicator lamp 8 is lightened to indicate starting; when the start switch 9 is pressed for a long time, the control mechanism 6 starts timing, meanwhile, the electromagnet 12 is also powered on, the sliding block 161 is attracted by magnetic force and collides against the gasket 13 at the head of the electromagnet 12, meanwhile, the sliding block connecting rod 162 and the throttle valve connecting rod 163 drive the throttle valve 14 to rotate, the air pressure in the air inlet channel 11 rapidly pressurizes the pressure chamber 2 to the preset air pressure, the air bag 3 is pressed against the micro-needle patch at a certain pressure and speed, and the micro-needle on the micro-needle patch is pressed into the skin for administration.

In the pressing-in process of the embodiment, if the air pressure in the pressure chamber 2 exceeds the safety pressure, the safety valve 4 plays a role in protection; specifically, when the pressure in the pressure chamber 2 is applied, the piston 43 moves toward the inside of the passage and compresses the relief valve spring 42, when the applied pressure exceeds a predetermined relief pressure, the piston 43 moves to the rear of the relief hole 41, and at this time, the pressure chamber 2 is vented to the atmosphere, until the pressure in the pressure chamber 2 drops below the predetermined relief pressure, and the piston 43 cuts off the communication between the relief hole 41 and the pressure chamber 2 due to the elastic force of the relief valve spring 42.
In the pressing-in process of the present embodiment, if it is desired to unload the pressure in the pressure chamber 2, the pressure relief action of the relief valve 5 is relied on at this time; specifically, the relief valve 5 is a hollow i-shaped component, the relief valve head 53 is located inside the pressure chamber 2, the relief valve tail 51 is located outside the pressure head rear portion 1, the middle of the relief valve body is sleeved with the compressed relief valve spring 52, one end of the relief valve spring 52 is located on the outer wall of the pressure head rear portion 1, and the other end of the relief valve spring 52 is propped against the relief valve tail 51, so that the relief valve 5 is in a normally closed state, and the circular relief hole 54 of the relief valve head 53 is communicated with the pressure chamber 2 only when the relief valve tail 51 is pressed from the outside, so that the air pressure in the pressure chamber 2 is released.
If the physical characteristics of the skin change, namely the radian, hardness, thickness and other properties of the skin change, the force and the speed required by the microneedle patch to be pressed in also change; in order to achieve good transdermal drug delivery effect, the invention can control the pressurizing speed in the pressure chamber 2 by changing the opening degree of the throttle valve 14, thereby controlling the force and speed of the air bag 3 pressing the microneedle patch; specifically, the electromagnet 12 is connected with the machine body rear cover 10 through the threads, and the feeding amount of the electromagnet 12 to the inside of the cavity of the machine body 15 is controlled, so that the free displacement stroke of the sliding block 161 is changed, and the opening degree of the throttle valve 14 is changed along with the movement conversion of the connecting rod 162, so that the pressurizing speed of the pressure chamber 2, namely the pressing speed of the air bag 3, is also controlled.
