Description

DISPOSABLE HYPODERMIC SYRINGE
The invention relates to a disposable hypodermic syringe of the kind presented in the introductory part of claim 1.
Today disposable syringes are widely used in hospi- tals and nursing homes as well as in clinics, dental clinics etc. in order to prevent transmission of infection. Health authorities also strongly advise that drug addicts and the like use disposable syringes because the danger of infection is consider- ed to be extremely large among this group of people.
The use of disposable syringes also causes great problems in connection with safe disposal of the large number of used disposable syringes, because disposal and destruction must take place in such a manner that other persons are not exposed to any danger of infection when touching the needles of the disposable syringes.
Disposable syringes should therefore be designed so that they, apart from being used only once, are designed so that the needle after use can be retract¬ ed and held inside the syringe.
Such a disposable syringe is known from USA patent no. 4,650,468 where the needle, following the empty¬ ing of the syringe, can be retracted into the syringe barrel and held there. The needle is attached to a piston head which in its position for use is released from the piston and connected with the frontmost end of the syringe barrel. When the piston is pressed down and the syringe is empty, the user will, by twisting the piston rod while the needle protrudes from the syringe, have to release the piston head with the needle from the syringe barrel and then re¬ tract the piston rod with the piston head back to an end position in which the piston rod will automatic¬ ally be locked to the syringe barrel. If the retract¬ ion is not effective, the needle can again be moved out of the syringe. Consequently, the design can work according to purpose, but it does in fact comprise at least fifteen single parts which means that the pro¬ duction and assembly costs of the syringe become con¬ siderable which is a disadvantage, particularly in connection with a syringe for single use.
The object of the invention is to provide a dispos¬ able hypodermic syringe where the retraction of the needle is quick and reliable so that the needle is immediately hidden and the syringe cannot be used again.
This is obtained by designing the disposable syringe according to the invention as presented in the cha- racterizing part of claim 1. Once the piston has reached the bottom, the user will, merely by applying a short further pressure on the piston rod in the same direction as when emptying the syringe, make the needle snap all the way back into the syringe. Conse- quently, no particularly directions are required as to how to render the syringe harmless since this is done the minute the syringe is emptied completely.
By designing the hypodermic syringe according to the invention as presented in the characterizing part of claim 2, the piston will become locked in its bottom position so that it cannot be retracted if for instance somebody tries to use the syringe again. This is a double safeguard against repeated use, and even during attempts at using the syringe again, the needle will remain inside the syringe barrel so that no danger of infection occurs.
The hypodermic syringe according to the invention can be designed as presented in the characterizing part of claim 3 in that the piston with piston rod and the forwardly pointed cone with projections can be de¬ signed as a unit by injection moulding in order that the embodiment does not require further individual parts. Besides, the hypodermic syringe according to the invention only comprises a specific number of individual parts.
By designing the hypodermic syringe according to the invention as presented in the characterizing part of claim 4, the spring effect is obtained in a simple, reliable and very inexpensive manner since ordinary helical springs are standard equipment which are available in large quantities at very low prices.
By designing the hypodermic syringe according to the invention as presented in the characterizing parts of claims 5, 6, or 7, an embodiment is obtained where the cavity in the piston is shut off from the liquid chamber proper and the air present in this.
In the following the invention will be described in closer detail with reference to the drawing, in which Fig. 1 shows a section through a hypodermic syringe according to a first embodiment of the invention and prior to usage,
Fig. 2 shows a section through the same hypodermic syringe, but after usage, and
Fig. 3 shows a section on a larger scale through the needle part of a hypodermic syringe according to a second embodiment.
The hypodermic syringe on figs. 1 and 2 comprises a cylindrical barrel 5 and a spring retainer 4 attached to said barrel in that the barrel 5 and the spring retainer 4 are joined in a generally known manner, e.g. by glueing or by ultrasonic welding.
A piston 14 with piston rod 7 is arranged in the barrel 5 designed in one piece as a unit. A piston packing 8 is attached to the piston in a circularly extending groove in order to seal the liquid chamber situated below the piston, and an oblong cavity 9 is provided centrally in the piston the function of which cavity will be described later.
The needle 1 of the hypodermic syringe is situated in the spring retainer 4, cf. fig. 1 and surrounded by a pre-set spring 2 which by a suitable pressure, e.g. 3-400 g, forces the needle towards the bottom 6 of the syringe barrel. The needle 1 and the spring 2 are controlled by the spring retainer 4. A head 3 is moulded onto the needle 1, said head for instance be¬ ing tapered, as illustrated and being slightly larger than a hole in the end wall 6 of the syringe barrel 5, said wall being designed as a comparatively thin and yielding wall. Due to the spring pressure from the spring 2 the head 3 is sealed toward the rim of the opening in the yielding end wall 6.
Around the opening onto the cavity 9 the piston 14 has a protruding part which is designed for instance as a cone with projections 10, as illustrated.
When the piston rod 7 and the piston 14 are being pressed down, as shown in fig. 2, the cone at the end of the piston will push forward the bottom 6 of the syringe barrel up to describe an arc which causes the diameter of the hole in the bottom to increase slightly, and the needle spring 2 can now push up the needle 1 and the needle head 3 into the cavity in the piston which is done with a slight click so that the user will always know when the syringe is empty and cannot be used again.
The thin bottom in the syringe barrel is simul¬ taneously moved across the projections 10 of the piston, said projections being designed so that for instance a circularly extending groove is provided behind the projections in order that the piston and piston rod can no longer be withdrawn. It is clearly seen from fig. 2 that the needle 1 hereby becomes completely hidden in the syringe barrel in that it has been pushed up into the cavity 9 in the piston by the spring 2, and that the piston is locked.
The embodiment shown in figs. 1 and 2 of the drawing should be taken as an illustrative embodiment for explanation of the mode of operation of the hypoder- mic syringe. It will be obvious to anyone skilled in the art that the details, particularly concerning the embodiment of the piston 14 with the cavity 9 and the lock projections 10 and the embodiment of the yield- ing end wall 6 and the sealing head 3 of the needle 1, can be designed in many other ways than the one which is shown and described.
Fig. 3 shows an embodiment where the packing 8' is designed in a special way, viz. with a thin membrane
15 surrounding the tapered end of the piston 14 and thus completely seals off the opening to the cavity
9. Moreover, the head 3' on the needle is shown in an embodiment being slightly different to the one ac- cording to figs. 1 and 2. Around the spring 2 a cylindrical collar 12 is arranged whose upper rim 13 is situated at a comparatively short distance to the head 3' of the needle. All other parts are identical to those shown in figs. 1 and 2 and have therefore been given the same reference numbers.
When the piston 14 bottoms by usage of the hypodermic syringe shown in fig. 3, the head 3' of the needle will rest against the face 13 and can thereby punc- ture or destroy the membrane 15 so that the needle 1 is displaced up into the cavity 9 in the piston which is locked, quite similarly to the manner described in connection with fig. 2 of the drawing. Any connection between the liquid chamber and the cavity 9 is hereby prevented until the hypodermic syringe is empty.
