Description

Needle stick protection apparatus
The present invention relates to needle stick protection apparatus.
The present invention is particularly suitable for but is not limited to be applied in needle stick protection apparatus, is not subjected to because of the caused shank of hypodermic needle injures with the protection people, but for explanatory purposes will be with this application as a reference.Yet, be appreciated that the present invention also can be used to prevent the repeated use of hypodermic needle.
Syringe comprises a tubular body or tube usually, and this has a narrow outlet that links to each other with the one end, and this outlet is communicated with an external nozzle liquid, can optionally connect a hypodermic needle or analog on the nozzle.The other end of tube can comprise a finger bearing, for example a pair of opposite outside flange, and also syringe can also comprise a piston, and it can be used for injecting the liquid that is stored in tube by nozzle.
The syringe that hypodermic needle is housed is through being usually used in medicine and other liquid infusion in the blood of humans and animals.The syringe that hypodermic needle is housed also is used for extracting liquid out from the blood flow of humans and animals, comprises blood.
Use a special consequence of hypodermic needle to be, may be infected with various infectious microorganisms, comprise and microorganism such as disease associations such as acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) (acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)), hepatitis, tetanus and tuberculosis.
Since reuse being infected with of other people hypodermic needle, or owing to pin thrusts in a people's the skin accidentally, this situation in back may take place when the personnel of health care industry handle syringe, infectious microorganism, for example foregoing microorganism can propagate into other people from the people who infects.
In order to prevent the shank injury and/or to reuse hypodermic needle, someone has developed multiple tubular sheath, sheath is used for slidably being installed in syringe body, and can between an off position and an operating position, move, at off position, the tip of pin exposes, and at operating position, the tip of pin is surrounded by the free end of sheath.Several examples of sheath are disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,595, in 566 (Vallelunga, in January, 1997).
Sheath comprises a hole that has inside groove usually, and inside groove is used to receive a position that is installed in the locking member on the syringe.Sheath is usually by injection-molded technology manufacturing, and an independent instrument is used for cutting out a circumferential groove on the drum type inner surface in hole.The generation of inside groove is a complicated operations process and relates to additional treatments to sheath.Therefore the manufacturing cost of sheath is very high.
In order to overcome and the relevant shortcoming of inside groove processing, the sheath of being produced by Becton Dickinson that is used for syringe comprises one group of internal projections as bearing.These bearings evenly and are closely arranged at interval along the circumferencial direction of pipe.These bearings are also arranged with staggered relation on the both sides of an imaginary circumference band, and the separated region between the adjacent bearing is used to receive a flange shape locking member that is installed on the syringe.
Though the manufacturing of this sheath is simpler than foregoing, manufacture process needs two cores, and they are recalled from the end opposite of sheath respectively.Therefore, the internal diameter of the opening that links to each other with the sheath free end that is used for around needle tip must be greater than the external diameter of locking member flange, and this flange extends beyond the outer surface of syringe body.Consequently, the free-ended internal diameter of sheath is enough big, and like this, the people can insert a finger in the sheath, thereby the danger of being wounded by stabbing is arranged.When the child of curiosity runs into by the entry needle of this unit protection, be extrahazardous.
In order to address this problem, Becton Dickinson provides a kind of medicated cap recently, and it can lock the free end of sheath as required.Yet, be appreciated that medicated cap itself is put into sheath just might make the people injured.
In addition, we notice, the intensity that the bearing of tight spacing provides for the surrounding wall portion of sheath stoped sheath when flange locking member and the bearing slip interlock the distortion that should occur.Consequently, when being moved with respect to locking member, sheath exists very big resistance, and for this reason, people always as far as possible firmly do not retract syringe body enough far away so that return sheath, thereby the flanged limits of locking member is being tilted between the opposed adjacent bearing.
Also observe, applying one to the sheath free end during roughly along the power of syringe direction, being limited in the locking member that tilts to be separated by between the bearing can easily split away off.Consequently, pin and syringe can reuse, and perhaps may injure other people after abandoning.
In addition, unless the existing syringe that the front is related to type carries out some transformation, otherwise previously described many sheaths can not use with these syringes.Outward flange is for example added in this transformation, will relate to change usually and/or replaces existing mould or instrument and/or carry out additional treatments in the course of processing, and this will increase cost, consuming time and at least temporarily interrupt the supply of syringe.
We are also noted that sheath mobile two handss of use that need between off position and operating position.Usually, sheath is held by one, and the another hands is used to keep syringe.
We notice that the personnel of implementation and operation will use hypodermic needle in many medical procedures, and their hand channel regular meeting is coated with and expired such as liquid such as blood, thereby generally very smooth.Because being everlasting, their hand channel slides on the sheath, therefore the sharp end that when the operation hypodermic needle, may can touch hypodermic needle accidentally.
Past attempts is found, uses the people of hypodermic needle often will keep the skin of patient around being needled into a little with the finger of a hands, so that any damage that may cause when being needled into people's skin or extraction minimizes.Therefore can utilize a hand operated and can be when pin be extracted out from people's skin the cover cap sheath of pin be optimal.

Sheath 30 comprises the endoporus 31 of a both ends open.Hole 31 comprises a main body or body part 44, and its internal diameter is slightly larger than the external diameter of the tube 11 of syringe 10.
Hole 31 comprises two pairs of parallel splines 32, and they are along most of length longitudinal extension of body part 44, and distance equates between the two pairs of splines.In addition, preferably make two splines 32 that constitute every pair of spline 32 closer to each other and be separated by, and occupied circle spacing of any a pair of spline in the two pairs of splines is more much smaller than the circle spacing between two pairs of splines.Consequently, wall portion 45 easy deformation of separating two splines 32.Also preferably make spacing distance between the spline 32 of diametrically contraposition be slightly larger than the external diameter of the tube 11 of syringe 10.
Spline 32 is disconnected by a discontinuous segment 33 along their length direction respectively, and these discontinuous segments that are in alignment with each other have formed an internal annular groove 33a.The discontinuous segment 33 of each spline 32 also is communicated with a perforate 34 that is formed on the sheath sidewall 35 respectively.
Described perforate 34 by the circumferential rib 36 of two outside horizontal expansions and 37 around.With each rib 36 and 37 respectively opposed be an inner pit 38 and 39, they are respectively formed in the spline 32.
Sheath 30 also comprises a cylindrical ends 40, and its internal diameter is less than the internal diameter of opposite ends 41 and the external diameter of tube 11.End 40 comprise four inner homogeneous phases every rib 42, to help to improve the intensity of above-mentioned end, also comprise eight adjacent ribs 43, they are along the sub-fraction longitudinal extension of sheath body part 44.
Sheath 30 also comprises finger engagement device 100, and it comprises an outward extending flange 101, shown in Fig. 6 a.The back edge 102 of flange 101 forms a bearing, to lean the finger bearing 9 of syringe.
Sheath 30 is preferably by injection-molded technology manufacturing, and mould preferably comprises two, and every forms a shape and the complementary die cavity of sheath 30 profiles respectively.Mould also comprises the core of a general cylindrical shape, and it is placed between the die cavity that piece constituted after the assembling, and shape complementations in the shape of core and the sheath 30.Each perforate 34 and the discontinuous segment 33 that is connected are shaped out by a corresponding projection respectively, each projection respectively with described die cavity in the given shape that links to each other and have with the interlock core.One with described die cavity in a runner that is connected be used for to the enough molten plastic of mould inside supply forming sheath, and behind plastics solidification, formed sheath 30 will strip down from core.Pit 38 and 39 formation are that the rate of cooling of rib 36 and 37 is with the slow result that compares of adjacent wall portion.
Fig. 8 and 9 has shown a locking member that is made of plastics 50.Locking member 50 comprises a general cylindrical shape body part 51 and an outer annular flange 57, and the external diameter of flange 57 is slightly larger than the spacing distance between the spline 32 of tube 11 external diameter and diametrically contraposition.Also preferably make the locking member height of showing arrow 58 expressions greatly less than the spacing distance between the spline 32 of diametrically contraposition.
Locking member 50 also comprises an endoporus 52 that is positioned at the center, and endoporus determined by a continuous wall 53, and this wall has an identical tapering of tapering with the nozzle 13 of syringe 10.Wall 53 comprises one group and points to inboard barb 54.Hole 52 is communicated with a groove 55 that is positioned at the center, and groove 55 comprises one group of projection 56 that points to inboard and below.
It is contemplated that sheath 30 and locking member 50 will constitute a needle stick protection apparatus 60, offer user with the assembling dormant state and use, as shown in figure 10.This protector can optionally be installed in before existing syringe is packed hypodermic needle 14 on the existing syringe 10.Locking member 50 preferably is placed in the hole 31 of body part 41 of sheath 30, and has an instrument to be used for locking member is pushed until adjoining constricted end portion 40, as shown in figure 10 along sheath.Preferably make annular lip 57 lean the end 61 of rib 43.
In use, by earlier with nozzle again with in tube 11 patchholes 31, needle stick protection apparatus 60 can be installed in the tube 11 of syringe 10, as shown in figure 13.Nozzle 13 preferably is pushed in the hole 52 of locking member 50, so that tapered wall 53 and nozzle external wall friction constrain in together, shown in Figure 14 a.Locking member 50 also is limited on the nozzle 13 by the interlock between barb 54 and the nozzle outer wall.
Preferably make finger bearing 9 adjoin finger flange 101, and the lateral edge portions 7 of finger on the bearing leaning with bearing 102, shown in Figure 14 a and 14b.
17 of the hubs of hypodermic needle 14 can promote projection 56 and the latter is shifted temporarily, and can hub be fastened on the nozzle by the frictional constraint between the tapered sidewalls of nozzle outer wall and cone-shaped groove 21, as shown in figure 15.The medicated cap 90 that is covered with pin can take off, as shown in figure 17.
The assembly of syringe of Xing Chenging and pin is very similar to the structure of assembly 70 shown in Figure 11 and 17 like this.
Should be pointed out that sheath 30 is positioned at its off position, and the major part of pin 19, comprise tip 20, all expose.
By immersing tip 20 in the liquid and twitching piston 15 backward, can be in the tube with liquid suction syringe, as shown in figure 18 by hypodermic needle 19.
If pin be not will be immediately to people's injection, but with fluid preservation in tube 11, sheath 30 can move between its extreme off position and operating position, thus the tip that makes pin 20 by end 40 around, as shown in figure 19.Yet when needed, sheath 30 can retreat or return its extreme off position once more, as shown in figure 20, like this user can be in needs with the contents in the syringe to patient infusion.
By people's skin being thrust at the tip 20 of pin 14 and utilizing the thumb 120 of user to promote the free end 6 of pistons 15, two that simultaneously syringe 10 are supported on user are leaning between the finger 121 of pointing bearing 8, can will be contained in the liquid infusion of tube in 11 in patient's blood flow.
After having implemented injection, sheath 30 can slide along tube 11, so that the end 40 of sheath is leaning people's skin.Afterwards, keep end 40 to abut against people's skin, pin 19 can also be housed in the sheath 30 subsequently from people's subcutaneous extraction.
Because the frictional constraint between annular lip 57 and the spline 32, therefore sheath 30 will cause sheath some local deformations to occur with respect to moving of tube 11, but will be appreciated that above-mentioned some resistance that is run into that moves will be overcome by the flexibility of wall portion 45 at least in part.
When annular lip 57 with after pit 38 is aimed at, flange 57 is with interlock pit 38, and above-mentioned interlock will be sent the loud noise that can hear.Because pit 38 is very shallow, so flange 57 and pit 38 can easily throw off, and like this, user can stretch the tip 20 of pin and exceed the restriction of sheath when needed, thereby guarantee that assembly can use with injection as required for the second time or extracts liquid.As example, when the liquid of planning to utilize syringe will be contained in wherein in a medical procedure is expelled in the human body with low dose in different phase, but wish that above-mentioned this point is not important when tip 20 make-up shieldings of pin are in end 40 time spent at assembly 70.
Yet, if do not wish to reuse syringe 10, then by annular lip 57 is aimed at discontinuous segment 33, so that the stops limit that flange 57 is constituted by the opposed edge 75 of each spline 32 is in discontinuous segment, thereby sheath 30 is placed on its operation shield position, as shown in figure 12.The interlock of annular lip 57 in discontinuous segment can be sent second loud noise that can hear.See that by perforate 34 annular lip 57 also can provide a kind of visual pathway, whether be limited in the discontinuous segment 33 to judge flange 57.
Relatively moving between sheath 30 and the syringe 10 preferably utilizes a hands to realize, being about to syringe 10 is supported between two fingers 121, leaning finger bearing 9 so that point 121, simultaneously thumb 120 is abutted against finger flange 101, exert pressure to finger flange 101 and finger bearing 9 by thumb 120 and finger 121 respectively again, shown in Figure 23 and 24.
This just makes that implementing the injector can utilize the another hands keeping the skin of patient around pin 14 thrusts a little.
Can believe, the constricted end portion 40 of sheath is enough narrow, thereby can prevent the shank injury, this injury mainly is that the finger insertion hole 31 owing to the people causes, yet, except said process, user can also determine with hypodermic needle with medicated cap be inverted and, be used for further locking the opening of end 40 with enlarged base medicated cap with in the above-mentioned medicated cap patchhole 31.
As the consequence of a voluntary action,, be appreciated that then locking member 50 will be limited in the sheath 30, as shown in figure 26 with hypodermic needle 14 if locking member 50 has separated with syringe 10.Can also believe that barb 54 will cause enough infringements to the outer surface of nozzle 30, so that syringe 10 can not reuse.
Figure 27 and 28 has shown a replaceability locking member 200 of locking member 50 shown in Fig. 8 and 9.The same with locking member 50, locking member 200 also is made of plastics.Locking member 200 comprises a general cylindrical shape body part 201 and an outer annular flange 202, and the external diameter of flange 57 is slightly larger than the spacing distance between the spline 32 of tube 11 external diameter and diametrically contraposition.Also preferably make the locking member height of showing arrow 203 expressions greatly less than the spacing distance between the spline 32 of diametrically contraposition.
Locking member 200 also comprises an endoporus 204 that is positioned at the center, and endoporus is determined a continuous wall 205, and this wall has an identical tapering of tapering with the nozzle 13 of syringe 10.In use, wall 205 is used for the outer surface of frictional constraint nozzle 13.
Hole 204 is communicated with a groove 206 that is positioned at the center, and this groove is determined by a continuous side walls 207.Groove 206 comprise one downward and intilted last week edge 208 and 209, two inclined-planes, inclined-plane of two diametrically contrapositions all from above-mentioned last week the edge 208 inwardly and downwards and stretch out from wall 207.Each inclined-plane 209 comprises a bottom guide surface 210 and bottom or trailing edge part 211 respectively, and it adjoins a horizontally disposed flange 212 settles, and this flange has a lower support surface 213.
Groove 206 also comprises two vertically-oriented bearings 214 that extend from trailing edge part 211 downwards.Groove 206 also comprises the inclined-plane 215 of two diametrically contrapositions, and they inwardly and upwards and from wall 207 stretch out from the base plate 220 of groove.Each inclined-plane 215 comprises a top guide surface 216 respectively; The leading part 218 on a top leading part 217 and an adjacent inclined-plane 209 is separated by about 90 °, and bottom traction element 219 almost is positioned at leading part 218 belows on another inclined-plane 209.
200 two of locking members radially be separated by and be positioned at the outside vertically-oriented bearing 250, they are protruding from sidewall 201.
Locking member 200 allows user that hypodermic needle 14 releasably is directly installed on it in use.This is achieved in that promptly that at first the flange 5 with hub 17 is placed in the groove 206, so that each end 6 lays respectively between the opposed inclined-plane 209 and rests on the leading part 217 on a corresponding inclined-plane 215.This may also need the each several part that is slightly grasping on the sidewall 207 of end 6 is pushed open slightly.Next, about 90 ° of hub 17 rotation so that end 6 moves past guide surface 210 and 216, leans on corresponding bearing 214 until the end 4 of hub 17; Flange 212 is superimposed upon on the end 6, and the surface 213 that is leaning end 6 helps to keep the nozzle 13 operability interlocks of hub 17 and syringe 10, as previously mentioned.In the process that hypodermic needle is locked on the syringe, can be by preventing that against constraint locking member 200 is with respect to 10 rotations of sheath 30 and/or syringe between bearing 250 and the respective rib 43.
, can easily hypodermic needle 14 be taken off from locking member 200 in the opposite direction with respect to the hub 17 of locking member 200 rotation pins 14 by the side when being installed on the above-mentioned locking member 200 with pin 14.
Hypodermic needle 14 can be installed together with locking member 200 or separate, and the protective cap that is had usually on the pin is again simultaneously hiding.
Be appreciated that when the contents in sealing that utilizes the bigger hypodermic needle of external diameter 14 breakthrough medicine bottles and the extraction medicine bottle, use locking member 200 useful especially.Afterwards, as needs, it is less to thrust " tiny " hypodermic needle 14 of patient skin that " greatly " hypodermic needle 14 can be replaced by external diameter.

Locking member 350 also comprises the annular edge of part 357 of a directed outside, and it has the lateral margin 358 that dangles, and this lateral margin is towards clamping device 359 resilient bias, and clamping device is used for the nozzle 313 and the peripheral cylindrical wall 314 of interlock syringe 310.Clamping device 359 comprises the frusto-conical portion 360 of a directed downwards and axial location, and the latter has a continuous lateral wall 361 of taper and the continuous medial wall 362 of taper, (road E Shi tapering).
Locking member 350 also comprises eight grooves 363 along the circumference equidistant placement, and they are formed in the upper wall of annular edge of part 357.Each groove 363 is respectively applied for the end 364 that receives a respective rib 343.
It is contemplated that; sheath 330 and locking member 350 will constitute a needle stick protection apparatus 370; offer user with the assembling dormant state and use, this protector can optionally be installed in before existing syringe is packed hypodermic needle 320 on the existing syringe 310, as shown in figure 39.Locking member 350 preferably is inserted in the hole 331, so that the serrated end of sheath 330 is pointed in coupling part 353.The elasticity of marginal portion 357 makes locking member to be pushed by the length direction of a suitable instrument along sheath, therefore so that the end 364 with each rib 343 is placed in respectively in the corresponding grooves 363 subsequently, and provide certain support for the locking member 350 that is placed in the sheath 330.Should also be noted that a little endless belt friction on the marginal portion 357 is leaning spline 332, and therefore help locking member 350 is limited in the sheath 330.
In use, by earlier with nozzle again with in tube 311 patchholes 331, needle stick protection apparatus 370 can be installed in the tube 331 of syringe 310.Nozzle 313 preferably is pushed in the hole 352 of locking member 350, so that the conical inboard wall 362 of the conical surface of nozzle 313 (road E Shi tapering) frictional constraint tapered segment 360, this inwall 362 is embedded between the conical surface of the threaded portion 315 of cylindrical wall 314 and nozzle 313.
The top 366 of cylindrical wall 314 also frictional constraint the lateral margin 358 of marginal portion 357, and this lateral margin outwards moves owing to contact top 366, as shown in figure 34.
Be further appreciated that in the nozzle 313 the hole therefore and with the mode of sealing and a part of fluid connection in hole 352, this part extends through locking member coupling part 353.
Annular lip 326 on the hub 321 of hypodermic needle 320 can screw-threaded engagement the threaded portion 356 of locking member 350, so that hub 321 is because of being limited with coupling part 353 liquid seal interlocks, shown in Figure 40 and 41.
The assembly of syringe of Xing Chenging and pin is very similar to the structure of assembly 390 shown in Figure 40 like this, and the inner chamber of syringe can charge into and a kind ofly will be expelled to the intravital liquid of patient in normal way.Should be pointed out that sheath 330 is positioned at its off position, and the major part of pin 323, comprise tip 324, all expose.
The tip 324 of pin 323 can be inserted below the patient skin, and by piston 316 roughly along pointing to moving of nozzle 313 directions, the liquid that is contained in the inner chamber can emit from pin.Perhaps, roughly along the moving of faces away from nozzle 313 directions, assembly 390 can be extracted liquid out from human body by piston 316.
After having finished injection or having extracted liquid, sheath 330 can slide along tube 311, so that the end 340 of sheath is leaning people's skin.Afterwards, tube 340 is retracted from the end, and keep sheath 330 static, preferably utilize rib 336 and 337, the tip 320 of pin 319 can be extracted out below people's skin as grasping the position with the another hands with a hands.
Because annular edge of part 357 with spline 332 frictional constraints, therefore sheath 330 will cause sheath some local deformations to occur with respect to moving of tube 311, but will be appreciated that above-mentioned some resistance that is run into that moves will be overcome by the flexibility of wall portion 345 at least in part.
When annular lip 357 with after inner pit 338 is aimed at, flange 57 is with interlock pit 338, and above-mentioned interlock will be sent the loud noise that can hear.Because pit is very shallow, so flange 357 and pit 338 can easily throw off, and like this, user can stretch the tip 324 of pin exceed the restriction of sheath, thereby guarantee that assembly can use with injection for the second time or extracts liquid.As example, when the liquid of planning to utilize syringe will be contained in wherein in a medical procedure is expelled in the human body with low dose in different phase, but wish that above-mentioned this point is not important when tip 324 make-up shieldings of pin are in end 340 time spent at assembly 390.
Yet, if do not wish to reuse syringe 310, then by annular lip 357 is aimed at discontinuous segment 333, so that the stops limit that flange 357 is constituted by the opposed edge 375 of each spline 332 is in discontinuous segment, thereby sheath 330 is placed on its operation shield position, as shown in figure 41.The interlock of annular lip 357 in discontinuous segment can be sent second loud noise that can hear.In addition, see that by perforate 334 annular lip 357 also can provide a kind of visual pathway, whether be limited in the discontinuous segment 333 to judge flange 357.
Can believe that the constricted end portion 340 of sheath is enough narrow, thereby can prevent that shank injury, this injury from mainly being that finger insertion hole 331 owing to the people causes.Yet, except said process, user can also determine with hypodermic needle with medicated cap be inverted and, be used for further locking the opening of end 340 with enlarged base medicated cap with in the above-mentioned medicated cap patchhole 331.
As the consequence of a voluntary action,, be appreciated that then locking member 350 will be limited in the sheath 330 with hypodermic needle 320 if locking member 350 has separated with syringe 310.
Certainly, can recognize, though the front has provided illustrative examples of the present invention, for the person of ordinary skill of the art, obviously all these and other remodeling and modification all are included in the appended claims book in the determined broad range of the present invention and field.
