Definitions
- the present invention relates to protection against accidental skin piercing by needles of used hypodermic syringes or medical samplers, or the like.
- the present invention aims to improve practicality and viability in providing for reliable automatic needle retraction.
- a syringe or sampler construction it is standard for a syringe or sampler construction to include a hollow cylindrical body, a plunger slidable in the body, and a seal between the plunger and the body effective during sliding of the plunger to express syringe or sampler contents and/or to draw them in before sample expression. Hitherto, acceptedly satisfactory seals have been expensive items made of rubber.
- a hypodermic syringe or sampler body and slidable plunger construction that permits direct sealing between the plunger and the body, at least for operation only once but including a number of movements at least for initial entry, retraction to load, and pressing down to express.
- a suitable construction comprises a hollow cylindrical body, preferably circular cylindrical, and a plunger having at least a hollow head with a continuous outer rim to engage the body internally when slid therein; the plunger head rim, as made, being nominally of greater external size than internal size of the body, but being radially inwardly defor able by the body when slid therein, preferably with some temporary radially outward deformation of the body itself as the plunger head travels along the interior surface of the body.
- Satisfactory mouldable synthetic plastics materials for the plunger head can have different resistances to deformation, typically less resistance for the plunger head and more resistance for the body, at least for both as made.
- the difference in nominal diameters of body interior and plunger head exterior can be up to 50 microns or more, preferably at least 25 microns.
- hypodermic syringes with automatic needle retraction after use typically require the hollow needle to be fixed to a holder, commonly called a 'hub', and for such hub to be acted upon by a compression spring and by releasable detent or trigger means to release spring action and forcibly send the needle and its holder into the interior of the syringe or sampler, often into the plunger which will be hollow at least for that purpose.
- a syringe or sampler body is made as a one-piece moulding complete with a main elongate cylindrical chamber to take a plunger slidably, a forward or extension chamber beyond end of plunger movement to house a spring and a holder for a hollow needle capable of passing through that forward or extension chamber, and internal integral latching formations for the needle holder to retain it with the spring compressed in the forward or extension chamber and acting on the needle holder.
- Preferred latching formations extend in the main chamber generally axially of the body to free ends having radially inwardly directed retaining formations, and are deflectable radially outwardly at their free ends both for release from a moulding tool, and for latching and release of the needle holder, say (and further preferably) when directly engaged by said plunger. It is particularly advantageous for such latching formations to have substantially no deflection from axial parallelism with the body when in latching engagement with the needle holder.
- a particularly convenient and advantageous one-piece body moulding has its forward or extension chamber of reduced sectional size compared with its main chamber (both preferably circular) , and its latching formations extending internally substantially outward of registration with walling of the forward or extension chamber and further preferably evenly spaced about the axis of the needle.
- a one-piece mouldable body part of the second-mentioned aspect of this invention represents substantial cost saving. This cost saving is increased when taken in conjunction with the first-mentioned aspect of this invention in further avoiding an expensive plunger-to-body seal.
- the one-piece body aspect is viable with a piston that has a plunger head-to-body seal, particularly of much smaller size (typically a simple small '0' ring) than customary in practice hitherto.
- a needle and immediately related retraction drive parts are placed in a guide that is slidable into the main chamber along its side walling to take the needle and its retraction drive parts up to the forward or extension chamber in axial registration therewith for insertion into that forward or extension chamber simply by being pushed off the guide.
- Sealing is, of course, provided so that hypodermic syringe or sampler contents do not escape past the needle (rather than only through it) , preferably with isolation also from needle retraction drive parts at least to save wastage of contents that would not be expressible from such a position, and a further aspect of this invention concerns such sealing.
- That further aspect itself has, in reality, two aspects, namely use of a septum disc that is uninterrupted save for being pierced by the needle, whose passage therethrough can readily be assisted by application of lubricants, say at first piercing and/or afterwards (before sterilising) for retraction; and use of a sealing washer on a needle holder to seal between a main plunger chamber of a syringe or sampler body and a or said forward or extension chamber housing the needle and retraction drive parts before the syringe or sampler is used.
- Lubrication may be by application of silicone material to the septum disc and/or the needle at first piercing, normally centrally and readily jigged up separately from use of a guide as in the third-mentioned aspect, and afterwards to aid forced retraction. Needle holder sealing can be below a head of the holder or hub and even be aided by action of the latching means on the opposite side of the head.
- the plunger is hollow and serves to receive the retracted needle and associated retraction drive parts, such as spring and seals, it can be closed off by a thin rupturable disc or membrane that is subsequently ruptured by the rear end of the needle, or the needle holder (as is preferred using appropriate formations on its innermost end) .
- a thin rupturable disc or membrane may well be such as not to rupture when subjected only to maximum retraction spring force, i.e. so the plunger needs to continue to be pressed down at or even after the full effective expression stroke and spreading of latching provisions to release the needle and its holder.
- a disc or membrane that does rupture easily when subjected to the spring bias force is preferred.
- the rupturable disc or membrane could be inward of the end of the plunger and its head rim, but by an amount less than the intrusion of the needle or its holder into the plunger accommodating chamber of the body.
- a satisfactory disc or membrane can be ultrasonically welded or heat welded (say impulse heat welded) or solvent welded in place in a suitable jig. Suitable adhesives represent another alternative.
- a plunger receiving a forcibly retracted needle and retraction drive parts be trapped in the body when in that state, but be reasonably effectively prevented from reaching that state until after first use. Achieving same constitutes a fifth aspect of this invention when done by way of a spacer between the free end of the plunger and the corresponding end of the body, to avoid snap-in of complementary body and plunger formations.
- a preferred spacer has a part or parts that can temporarily latch to the body end and/or the plunger end, and further preferably has incorporated therein indication of sterilising have taken place, say as normally done by irradiation.
- a suitable spacer can be of sheet form apertured to fit over the plunger stem and tearable for removal.
- a preferred sheet is of thick paper or cardboard and carries a spot or printing of radiation indicating type, say ink that changes colour. Tear perforations can be pre-for ed, say at a return bend for the sheet to pass twice about the plunger stem beneath its head. One or each end of the sheet can be preformed with a fold that provides either or both of folding over an end flange of the body and the free end of the plunger.
- lubrication of the needle to be done, or to be capable of being done, in a test operation, say using a blind cup with a septum disc closure carrying silicone and penetrated by the needle for prescribed pressure to be applied to the plunger for test purposes.
- a double- ended needle can also allow use with pre-loaded drug capsules or cartridges.
- a container for blood etc sample or with drug etc
- said plunger can be reinserted into the body in order to operate the latching provisions and take the needle etc into its hollow interior.
- Such a plunger will not need, and preferably will not have, either of a seal to the body or a rupturable closure of its end. Indeed, such a plunger, i.e. not for hypodermic syringe use and action, will preferably be clearly distinguished, say by colour.
- the plunger can have interior effective capture formations that may be as simple as progressively tapered formations, such as fins, ribs or even flats. Such tapered formations will effectively grip thus slow and stop a hub or holder of the retracting needle and can be located so that a double-ended needle will not reach and penetrate outside the plunger.

- Figures 5A,B,C are plan, edge-on, and installed views of a preferred spacer of folding sheet type;
- Figure 6 shows a test procedure combined with needle lubrication
- Figures 7A,B show assembly of needle retraction drive parts
- Figure 8 is a detail concerning direct plunger-body sealing:
- Figures 9A,B are side and head plan views of a needle holder
- Figure 10 is a detail transverse view concerning needle holder latching means of the body
- Figures 11 and 11A are part and detail longitudinal sectional views concerning samplers and cartridged drug dispensers.
- a syringe construction comprises a body 1 having a cylindrical bore 3 open to one end to receive slidably within it a hollow plunger 5 shown sealed to the bore 3 by a quite small 'O'-ring 7.
- the other end of the body 1 has an end wall provided with an axial through-hole 10 in an external axial extension 11 which is frusto- conical to receive a needle sheath 13.
- a hollow elongate needle 15 is carried by a holder or hub 17 of top-hat section at its inner end.
- the needle 15 goes from inside the bore 3, and passes through a septum seal 19 positioned at the inner end 20 of the body 1 and through-hole 10.
- That end 20 of the body 1 also has extending inwardly therefrom deflectable latch fingers 21 providing latching shoulders 25 and tapered actuating surfaces 27.
- the fingers 21 will spread radially outwardly when engaged by latch release surface 39 as will be described.
- An annular space outwardly of the latch fingers 21 is shown filled with a soft rubber infill to occupy space which might otherwise be a source of air pockets.
- a compression spring 33 shown compressed with the needle 15 latched and held in its extended position by the fingers 21.
- the end of the plunger 5 facing the needle 15 is shown closed by a plug 35 that seals relative to the interior of the plunger 5 and has latching fingers 37 engaging the end of the plunger 5.
- the ends of the fingers 37 are tapered to provide surfaces 39 that cooperate with the tapered faces 27 of the body fingers 21 when the plunger 5 is pushed into the body 1 to its maximum extent.
- the plug fingers 37 will then also flex radially inwardly, and the space between them is preferably also occupied by a soft rubber infill 30.
- Displacement of the plunger 5 into the body 1 is shown hindered by a removable collar 41 disposed about the plunger 5 beyond the opposite end of the body l. Shown inside the removable collar 41 are teeth 43 on the plunger 5 for engagement in complementary recesses 45 in the adjacent end of the body 1.
- the needle protection sheath 13 is removed and material drawn into the body 1 in the usual manner by withdrawing the plunger, the required dosage being measured by suitable calibration on the syringe body after expulsion of any entrapped air in the usual manner.
- the needle 15 is then inserted into the recipient to be injected, and the contents discharged by displacing the plunger 5 down the body l.
- the collar 41 can be removed later, after injection use of the hypodermic syringe, and the needle withdrawal from the recipient before final movement of the plunger 5 to trigger retraction of the needle 15.
- the materials employed in construction of the plunger can be low friction plastics, and it is readily possible to employ a compression spring 33 that will exert sufficient force to retract the needle 15 from recipient tissue as well as drive it within the plunger 5.
- a bleed hole 47 near the outer end of the plunger 5 avoids imposing undue restriction on movement of the plug 35 and needle 15 down the plunger 5.
- Figures 2, 3 and 4 show as-made and sterilised (before packaging or after unpackaging, typically from a blister pack), loaded for injection, and retracted needle states, respectively, for another embodiment of this invention. Reference numerals are generally advanced by one hundred, and differences are now described. Although not so shown in Figure 4, the septum disc 119 may travel with the needle 115 and take the spring 133 with it into the interior of the plunger 105 at automatic retraction.
- the sleeve 41 of Figure 1 is replaced by an apertured and folded sheet tag 141, which may be of thick paper or card.
- Figures 5A,B,C show more detail including apertures 141A,B both to fit over the plunger 105 below its grippable end 105E when folded at 141C, and at 141D to aid removal by tearing, say aided by perforations at 14E.
- the doubled thickness between the plunger end 105E and the grippable end 10IE of the body 101 prevents engagement of the rib 143 and the groove 145 (shown more rounded than toothing 43 and recessing 45 in Figure 1 for easier integral moulding and "bumping off" from the mould tools concerned) .
- Folds at 141F,G enable sheet end portions 141H and 141K to engage over flanging of plunger and body ends 105E and 101E. Retention is aided by contact adhesive at 141L,M for edges of the plunger and body end flangings, or, and preferably, holding folds pinched together (not indicated in Figure 5C for clarity, though fold direction arrows do appear) .
- the top of the sheet end 14IK is a convenient place for imprinting or affixing a label carrying any data desired (such as date of manufacture, batch number, manufacturer, syringe capacity, needle size, etc) plus a tell-tale for sterilisation (say an ink that changes colour) .
- the sleeve 41 could, of course, be similarly printed or labelled.
- the embodiment of Figures 2 to 4 also has a further seal 160 engaged by the opposite end of the spring 133 from the septum seal 119.
- the seal 160 is of flat washer type and seals to taper 161 by coaction between the needle holder of hub 117 and the latch fingers 141, preferably to cause outer corner deformation of the seal 161 when the latch fingers 141 entrap the holder or hub 117 with the spring compressed in the body extension 111.
- the seals 119 and 160 both assist retention of contents of the body, but the seal 160 further isolates the body extension 111 and the spring 133 from body contents.
- the whole needle and its holder or hub and related drive and seal assembly 115,117,119,133,160 is particularly readily assembled into the body extension chamber 111, see Figures 7A,B.
- the needle 115 is already in the holder or hub 117 and passes through the seal 160 and the spring 133 with its point about to pierce the septum seal disc 119 centrally, as can readily be jigged up.
- the whole is placed in a guide 170 of generally half (or less) cylindrical form with an inner radius or channel 171 matching to the needle holder or hub 117, spring 133 and seals 119,160 and an outer radius presenting a surface 172 matching the interior of the main chamber of the body 101.
- Figures 2 to 4 also indicate direct sealing between the plunger 105 and the body 101.
- An *0'-ring seal as at 7 in Figure 1 represents a great saving compared with conventional large rubber mouldings for hypodermic syringes.
- integrally moulding a satisfactory seating that does not require adhesive or other bonding is difficult.
- avoiding any separately made seal part at all represents a yet greater advance and saving.
- Suitable materials for head 105H of the plunger, actually the whole plunger in a practical integral moulding, and for the body 101, enable that greater advance and saving.
- a harder, less deformable and advantageously highly transparent material for the body 101 is nucleated homopolymer polypropylene, and a softer, more deformable and satisfactorily sliding and sealing material for the plunger head 105H is high-density Melt 7 polyethylene.
- Those materials allow a nominal oversize of the plunger head 105H relative to the interior bore of the main chamber of the body 101 of up to 50 microns resulting in small outward deformation of the body 101 as the plunger head slides along it, say as little as 2 microns or less, and a larger compressive inwards deformation of the plunger head 105H.
- Dashed lines on Figure 8 give some indications of such deformation (obviously excluding possible volumetric compression at least of the plunger head) , but should not be taken as either to scale or accurate, as detail measuration has not been made.
- Figure 8 also indicates a preferred indenting 105D of the plunger 105 just rearward of its head 105H, which is practical using rearward tool parts that split longitudinally and also provide flanging at 105E, and a forward end tool part for the rim of the head 105H itself that will assure no tool break lines round that sealing rim.
- the embodiment of Figures 2 to 4 does not show soft infill behind the latching fingers 121, though such can be provided if desired.
- the body 101 is highly advantageously formed with only localised outward accommodations for flexing of the fingers 121 when spread for automatic needle retraction, see at 90° intervals and referenced 120 in Figure 10.
- Suitable tooling for one-piece moulding of the body 101 will have a core part that has an outer retractable sleeve part with extensions to form the accommodations 120 and to permit both formation of the latch teeth 125 and tapered actuating surfaces 127, and core tool extraction by flexing the fingers 121 outwardly after retraction of the outer sleeve part, say using a pushed forward inner sleeve part.
- a particularly advantageous arrangement involving twisting during removal of the core tool forms the subject matter of a co-pending UK patent application.
- sample-taking containers (280) can be of evacuated type so that they merely needed rupturing by the inner end of the needle (215) to draw a sample from its other end already inserted into a recipient to be sampled, or can be of attachable and detachable piston type requiring piston withdrawal after such piercing by the inner end of the needle.
- suitable containers (280) can have their own piston or piston attachment for expression after piercing by the inner end of a double-ended needle (280) .
- Figure 11 shows a soft flexible cover 282 for the inner end 215B of the needle 215, which cover 282 will be pushed down and ruptured by the inner end 215B of the needle 215 when the seal 281 is ruptured as the container 280 is loaded into the body 101 or pushed into its operative state.
- the cover 282 has an end rim 282R shown captured by a dished apertured retainer part 282 itself shown with an inner rim 284 by which it is snap-fitted onto a headed extension formation 285 of a modified needle holder or hub 217.
- Other fitting for the cover 282 can be used, say by way of stretching onto a ribbed or barbed upstand of the holder or hub 217.
- a container 280 After a container 280 has been used, it will be removed by withdrawal from the inner end of the needle 215, and a modified plunger 205 will be used for automatic retraction of the needle 215 and its related drive parts effectively just as before. Sealing of such a plunger 205 to the body 101 will not be required, see clearance formations 205C in Figure 11A (and of which there could be many) , nor will any rupturable closure of its end 205B. Such will distinguish the plunger 205 from those (5,105) for hypodermic syringes, but colour can also be used and is preferred.
- septum disc 119 at the end of the forward or extension chamber 111 by design (spring strength and stroke relative to needle length and lubrication and/or grip of the septum disc in the forward chamber) has the advantage of the used hypodermic syringe or sampler being sealed for disposal with the needle 115 irretrievably retracted into the plunger 105 then locked to the body 101. It has proved feasible, even for prototypes, to achieve needle stability to the extent of resisting up to 9 kilograms point loading with an operative plunger pressure of only aout 100 to 125 grams or so.
