Needle assembly having the following modes of operation; a first mode wherein the safety shield can move to a first retracted position allowing injection of the piercing portion of needle from a position at least partially covering the piercing portion of the needle and a second mode wherein the safety shield moves to a position protecting the piercing portion of the needle after the first mode and is prevented from moving back to a position exposing the piercing portion of the needle.

A needle assembly is disclosed. The needle assembly includes a housing having a flash chamber, and having a distal end and a proximal end engageable with a specimen collection container. The assembly includes a cannula having a patient end, a non-patient end, and a sidewall extending therebetween defining a cannula interior. The patient end of the cannula projects at least partially from the distal end of the housing, and the cannula interior is in fluid communication with the flash chamber. The assembly further includes a shield restrainably engaged with a portion of the housing and axially transitionable over the patient cannula from a retracted position in which the patient end is exposed, to an extended position in which the patient end is shielded by at least a portion of the shield, wherein at least a portion of the flash chamber is visible in the retracted position.

A liquid collection-injection needle assembly is provided including a needle cap that accommodates and protects a needle, and that is designed to be used for other purposes as well, so that the needle cap is effectively used, and the number of parts required for assembly is reduced. The assembly includes a needle holding member that holds a needle after needle has been inserted into holding member, and a needle cap that is configured to be connected detachably to a front part of needle holding member, and to protect the exposed portion of needle that is exposed from the needle holding member after needle has been inserted into needle holding member. In the state where needle cap communicates with needle holding member, an end portion of the needle cap is capable of communicating with a rear part of needle holding member.

The present invention relates to a device including a syringe designed to extract blood from a patient, process the blood to create a derivative blood product, and then subsequently to administer the derivative blood product. The present invention further relates to an associated method, carried out by: drawing blood, processing the drawn blood to produce a derivative blood product, and administering the derivative blood product, all using a single sterile vessel.

The patient end of the cannula projects at least partially from the distal end of the housing, and the cannula interior is in fluid communication with the flash chamber. The assembly further includes a shield restrainably engaged with a portion of the housing and axially transitionable over the patient cannula from a retracted position in which the patient end is exposed, to an extended position in which the patient end is shielded by at least a portion of the shield, wherein at least a portion of the flash chamber is visible in the retracted position.

An improved disposable puncture depth adjustable safety lancet includes a shell, a lancet core, a spring, and a trigger. The shell has an adjusting ring at a front end thereof to adjust a puncture depth, the adjusting ring being sleeved and clearance-fit at an outside of the trigger head. The adjusting ring and the shell are rotationally connected in a peripheral direction and are fixedly connected in an axial direction, and a rotational locating structure is formed by the adjusting ring and the shell in the peripheral direction. The adjusting ring has an inner wall equipped with a rotating step face or rotating bevel, and rotating the adjusting ring locates the adjusting ring in different locating positions. The rotating step face or rotating bevel is configured to meet the collision face of the lancet core in different axial positions, thereby changing the puncture depth of needle tip.

A needle cap for a medical syringes facilitates aspiration of medicine into the syringe, through the stopper of a medicine vial, directly through the injection needle of the syringe. A proximal end of the needle cap is coupled to a needle hub of the syringe, with an outer diameter of the syringe needle captured within and in sealing engagement with an internal diameter of a needle seal. An open tip tapered distal end of the needle cap is inserted through the stopper of the medicine vial. Retraction of the syringe plunger aspirates medicine through the open tip of the needle cap, directly through the syringe needle, into the syringe chamber. Upon completion of medicine aspiration into the syringe, the needle cap is removed, and the syringe is ready for injection of medicine to the patient.

An improved disposable puncture depth adjustable safety lancet includes a shell, a lancet core, a spring and a trigger; wherein: the shell has an adjusting ring to adjust the puncture depth in the front end; the adjusting ring is sleeved clearance-fit at the outside of the trigger head; the adjusting ring and the shell are connected in a rotational way in the peripheral direction, and are connected in a fixed way in the axial direction, and a rotational locating structure is set between the adjusting ring and the shell in the rotation direction; the adjusting ring is equipped with the rotating step face or rotating bevel on the inner wall, and rotate the adjusting ring to be in the different locating positions and the rotating step face or rotating bevel meets the collision face of lancet core in the different axial positions, thereby changing the puncture depth of needle tip.
