20210178079 · 2021-06-17 ·

The invention discloses a novel composite safety self-destructing syringe, comprising cylinder, rod, ring, and needle hub; the cylinder comprises standard and widened wide sections; the inner wall width of the widened section is larger; the widened section is disposed on the top of the cylinder, and the standard section has a fixing groove; the rod is movably connected in the cylinder, and the bottom thereof is mated with the inner wall of the cylinder; the rod inside has a cavity, and a spring sleeve is disposed at the lower of the cavity. The fixing groove can mate with the convex reinforcement to achieve a good fixing effect. The rod has two different widths, making the sealing ring and the sealing rubber difficult to be rebounded. The exhaust hole is for labor-saving and facilitating retracting the syringe needle. The engagement block can better ensure the stability of the spring sleeve.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SAFETY SYRINGE

A system for mixing drug products and injecting includes a syringe body, proximal and distal stopper members disposed in the syringe body, a plunger member, and a needle hub assembly coupled to the distal needle interface of the syringe body. The proximal and distal stopper members form a proximal drug chamber between there between and a distal drug chamber between the distal stopper member and a distal end of the syringe body. The plunger member includes a needle retention feature, an energy-storage member, and an energy-storage member latching member all disposed in disposed in a plunger interior. First and second sizes of the respective proximal and distal drug chambers can be modified by movement of the proximal and distal stopper members relative to the syringe body. The needle is at least partially retractable into plunger interior upon manipulation of the plunger member relative to the syringe body.

Resettable prefilled syringe training device with releaseably locking needle guard

In an embodiment, a resettable injection training device and a method embodiment for resetting the device is provided herein. The device may include a housing having a proximal end and a distal end, the housing defining a cavity there within. A plunger may be slidable relative to the housing between the proximal end and the distal end. A releasably locking shield having a proximal end and a distal end, and being slidably engaged with the housing is also provided. The shield may be slidable between a retracted, pre-use position an extended, locked, post-use position. The device may further include a flat biasing member for locking the shield in the extended position, and a compressing component slidable relative to the housing, wherein pressure on the flat biasing member from the compressing component deforms the flat biasing member, and unlocks the shield, and wherein a release of pressure by the compressing component on the flat biasing member locks the shield in an extended, post-use position.

Safe syringe
