A medical injection device for supporting a medical container comprising a barrel and a needle tip extending from a distal end of the barrel, comprising: safety shield, first ring configured to be coupled to the medical container and configured to be biased in a proximal direction relative to the safety shield from an injection position in which a needle tip extends out of the safety shield to a safety position in which the needle tip is covered by the safety shield, and second ring rotatably movable relative to the first ring between locking position wherein the second ring maintains the first ring in the injection position and an unlocking position wherein the second ring releases the first ring thereby allowing the first ring to be urged into the safety position.

A modular retractable needle assembly having a unitary propellant release structure is provided. The modular retractable needle assembly can be coupled to a suitable syringe. A modular filler needle can be provided that is engageable to the syringe. Kits comprising the modular retractable needle assembly, one or more syringes, and a modular filler needle are provided.

The invention provides a safety injector needle. The safety injector needle includes a needle seat, an injection needle axially fixedly connected to the needle seat, and a trigger protection assembly assembled on the needle seat, the needle seat includes an assembly part and a fixing part; the trigger protection assembly includes a case, a trigger mechanism and an elastic element; the case is arranged in a hollow tube shape; the trigger mechanism includes a first trigger mechanism and a second trigger mechanism. The first trigger mechanism can slide along the extension direction of the case under the action of the elastic element.; the second trigger mechanism can slide along the extension direction of the needle seat under the action of the elastic element, so that the injection needle is completely contained between the trigger mechanism and the needle seat after the safety injector needle is used.

A syringe for medical use, the syringe having a selectively retractable needle and a multifunctional needle holder and retainer ring assembly including a needle holder with a head section having an inwardly tapering frustoconical section of the fluid pathway and a rearwardly facing annular surface surrounding the rear opening, and an elastomeric retainer ring with a substantially unexpanded collar extending rearwardly beyond the rearwardly facing annular surface to increase needle pushout force, reduce activation force and improve fluid flow through the syringe. Annular projections inside the retainer ring and on the outer surface of the head section of the needle holder are also disclosed.

The invention relates to a syringe with a retractable needle comprising a barrel (2) having a nozzle (19) integrated in a male Luer adapter element (26); a piston (3) slidably arranged in the barrel (2) and coupled to a sealing element (16), said sealing element (16) having a central channel (20); a needle assembly comprising a needle (4), a needle holder (6) and a female Luer adapter element (7); a spring assembly arranged in the piston (3) comprising a spring sleeve (12), a spring (13) mounted on the spring sleeve (12), a spring tensioning element (14) located on the spring sleeve (12) and held in position by the piston wall, and a plunger (15) mounted within the spring sleeve; and a piston cap (10); said piston (3) being coupled to the sealing element (16) by means of the spring tensioning element (14); said spring sleeve (12) being held in position within the piston (3) by a ring element (18) protruding from the inner wall of the piston (3) and supporting the proximal end of the spring sleeve (12), the spring sleeve extending into the channel (20) of the sealing element (16) to the distal end thereof; said spring sleeve (12) comprising at its distal end a circular protrusion (21) on the inside designed to engage a circular recess (22) at the proximal end of the needle holder (6); wherein the piston (3) comprises a holding ring (11) on its inner surface designed to engage with an outer flange (17) of the spring sleeve (12) after actuation of the spring (13).

A medical injection device for supporting a medical container comprising a barrel and a needle tip extending from a distal end of the barrel, comprising: safety shield, first ring configured to be coupled to the medical container and configured to be biased in a proximal direction relative to the safety shield from an injection position in which a needle tip extends out of the safety shield to a safety position in which the needle tip is covered by the safety shield, and second ring rotatably movable relative to the first ring between locking position wherein the second ring maintains the first ring in the injection position and an unlocking position wherein the second ring releases the first ring thereby allowing the first ring to be urged into the safety position.

A syringe for medical use, the syringe having a selectively retractable needle and a multifunctional needle holder and retainer ring assembly including a needle holder with a head section having an inwardly tapering frustoconical section of the fluid pathway and a rearwardly facing annular surface surrounding the rear opening, and an elastomeric retainer ring with a substantially unexpanded collar extending rearwardly beyond the rearwardly facing annular surface to increase needle pushout force, reduce activation force and improve fluid flow through the syringe. Annular projections inside the retainer ring and on the outer surface of the head section of the needle holder are also disclosed.

A fluid delivery injector comprises a syringe defining a barrel; a plunger and a hollow needle provided within the barrel adapted for linear movement parallel to a longitudinal axis with a distal tip of the needle contained within the syringe. A fluid retention reservoir is defined at least in the barrel and is in fluid communication with the needle when pressure is applied to the fluid in the reservoir and to the plunger for moving the needle out of the barrel. A spring may be provided for retracting the needle when pressure is released from the plunger.

A modular retractable needle assembly having a unitary propellant release structure is provided. The modular retractable needle assembly can be coupled to a suitable syringe. A modular filler needle can be provided that is engageable to the syringe. Kits comprising the modular retractable needle assembly, one or more syringes, and a modular filler needle are provided.

A medical device having a forwardly-projecting needle and a selectively-movable needle cap that can be variously positioned to cover all or a portion of the needle, depending upon whether the device is, for example, being transported, aspirated or used to inject a therapeutic fluid. The device can optionally be configured to enable retraction of the needle into the body for safe disposal following use.
