Zusammenfassung:	A safety device includes a ring configured to be attached to a distal tip of a medical injection device and a protective shield movably coupled to the ring and configured to adopt a storage position covering the needle tip, an operative position uncovering the needle tip, and a safety position covering the needle tip A protective cap is mounted on the ring to cover the needle tip, and can be separated from the ring prior to use of the device. A retaining system includes a first retaining portion on the protective shield and a second retaining portion on the protective cap, with the first and second retaining portions cooperating in the storage position to prevent the protective shield from moving to its operative position. A releasing system releases the retaining system and is configured to be activated by a manual inward pressure exerted on the protective cap.
