Needle retracting mechnism, needle holder and hypodermic syringe

An automatic needle retracting mechanism ( 1 ) for a hypodermic syringe ( 2 ) comprises a body ( 3 ) which slidingly supports a needle ( 27 ). A retainer ( 9 ) for an actuator ( 8 ) and the needle ( 27 ) is kept in a retaining position by a spacer ( 11 ), which after some time in contact with an inj...

Zusammenfassung:An automatic needle retracting mechanism ( 1 ) for a hypodermic syringe ( 2 ) comprises a body ( 3 ) which slidingly supports a needle ( 27 ). A retainer ( 9 ) for an actuator ( 8 ) and the needle ( 27 ) is kept in a retaining position by a spacer ( 11 ), which after some time in contact with an injectant loses its mechanical strength. A filing of the needle with an injectant causes a deformation of the spacer ( 11 ), a release of the actuator ( 8 ) and a retracting of the retainer ( 9 ) and needle ( 27 ) into a needle retraction chamber ( 4 ). The needle retracting mechanism may also include an inner sleeve ( 20 ) which is manually movable towards the retainer ( 9 ) for a manual release of the actuator ( 8 ). The needle retracting mechanism may be included in a needle holder ( 33 ) or integrated in a syringe ( 2 ′).
