DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[0020] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the device for securing a protective cover of a syringe of the present invention comprises a body 10 having a fixing portion 100 and a grip portion 101. The fixing portion 100 has two clamps 11 formed on the top thereof. Each clamp 11 includes two clamping plates located at a distance from each other. A protrusion 110 protrudes from the inside of each of the two clamping plates, A first clip 12 is formed to the underside of the fixing portion 100. The grip portion 101 further includes a protective plate 13 extending upward from one side thereof. A connection member 14 is connected to the grip portion 101. The connection member 14 is connected with a second clip 15. Specifically, the fixing portion 100 and the grip portion 101 form the body 10 as a T-shaped plate.
[0021] As shown in FIGS. 3 to 8, the second clip 15 clips the body 10 to the user's pocket as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7 so that the device 1 is easily carried. Before using the syringe 2, the user holds the barrel of the syringe 2 and pushes the protective cover 21 into the two clamps 11 on the fixing portion 100 as shown in FIG. 3, wherein the needle 20 is inserted in the protective cover 21. The protective cover 21 is well clamped by the protrusions 110 of the two clamps 11. As shown in FIG. 4, the user pulls the barrel away from the protective cover 21 so that the needle 20 is removed from the protective cover 21. The user then pushes the plunger to inject medicine into the patient's body. After injection, the user holds the grip portion 101 of the body 10 of the device 1 by one hand, and the other hand holds the syringe 2 and aims the needle 20 to the protective cover 21. The user's fingers are located away from the protective cover 21 and the needle 20, and the needle 20 is easily inserted into the protective cover 21 as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6. The protective plate 13 on one side of the grip portion 101 prevents the user's fingers from being hurt by the needle 20 when the needle 20 is inserted into the protective cover 21.
[0022] After the needle 20 is inserted into the protective cover 21, the user lifts the syringe 2 away from the body 10 so that the protective cover 21 slightly pushes the two clamping plates of each clamp 11 apart from each other to separate the syringe 2 from the device 1 as shown in FIG. 7.
[0023] When the user operates the syringe 2 by one hands, and the other hand needs to press the user's body, the device 1 can be clipped to an object such as a board 3, by the first clip 12 as shown in FIG. 8. Therefore, the user can use one hand to insert the needle 20 back into the protective cover 21.
[0024] It is noted that the device 1 is compact and light in weight, and the device 1 is easily used and manufactured at low cost. The device 1 is easily carried by every user.
[0025] While we have shown and described the embodiment in accordance with the present invention, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that further embodiments may be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.
