Subsequently, as the piston member 12 is slid by the driving unit 4, the drug solution injector 1 is filled with a drug solution from the syringe 2 through the injection tube 19 to the patient. The medicinal solution injecting apparatus 1 injects a predetermined amount of medicinal solution into a patient by continuously repeating a series of operations including the above filling operation and injecting operation.

  Finally, an example of the blinking operation of each display lamp of the display device described above will be described with reference to the drawings.

  When, for example, 100 mL of a chemical solution is injected using the chemical solution injection device 1, an injection operation starts from step 101 as shown in FIG. . When the total injection amount of the chemical solution reaches 25 mL, as shown in step 103, when the injection operation is temporarily stopped, the process proceeds to step 111 in FIG. If the injection operation has not been temporarily stopped, the green LED is blinked by the control unit when the total injection amount becomes 50 mL or more (step 104).

  When the total injection amount of the chemical solution reaches 75 mL, as shown in step 105, when the injection operation is temporarily stopped, the process proceeds to step 131 in FIG. When the injection operation is not temporarily stopped, the orange LED is blinked by the control unit when the total injection amount becomes 90 mL or more (step 106).

  When the total injection amount of the chemical solution reaches 95 mL, as shown in step 107, when the injection operation is temporarily stopped, the process proceeds to step 151 in FIG. If the injection operation is not temporarily stopped, the injection operation by the drive unit 4 is stopped by the control unit when the total injection amount reaches 100 mL, and the calculation process of the total injection amount is reset (step 108). The injection operation ends (step 109).

  When the injection operation is temporarily stopped in step 103 described above, as shown in FIG. 5, the control unit determines whether or not the injection operation is started after the calculation process of the total injection amount is reset (step). 111).

  When the calculation process of the total injection amount is reset in step 111, the control unit sets the total injection amount to 0 mL and blinks the light blue LED (step 112). Thereafter, when the total injection amount becomes 50 mL or more, the green LED blinks (step 113), when the total injection amount becomes 90 mL or more, the orange LED blinks (step 114), and the total injection amount reaches 100 mL. When this happens, it is reset (step 115), and the injection operation ends (step 116).

  On the other hand, when the calculation process of the total injection amount is not reset in Step 111, the control unit continues the total injection amount to 25 mL and blinks the light blue LED (Step 122). Thereafter, when the total injection amount becomes 50 mL or more, the green LED blinks (step 123), when the total injection amount becomes 90 mL or more, the orange LED blinks (step 124), and the total injection amount reaches 100 mL. When this happens, it is reset (step 125), and the injection operation ends (step 126).

  Similarly, when the injection operation is temporarily stopped in step 105 described above, as shown in FIG. 6, the control unit determines whether or not the injection operation is started after the calculation process of the total injection amount is reset. (Step 131).

  When the calculation process of the total injection amount is reset in step 131, the control unit sets the total injection amount to 0 mL and blinks the light blue LED (step 132). Thereafter, when the total injection amount becomes 50 mL or more, the green LED blinks (step 133), when the total injection amount becomes 90 mL or more, the orange LED blinks (step 134), and the total injection amount reaches 100 mL. When this happens, it is reset (step 135), and the injection operation ends (step 136).

  On the other hand, when the calculation process of the total injection amount is not reset in step 131, the control unit continues the total injection amount to 75 mL, the green LED blinks (step 142), and the total injection amount becomes 90 mL or more. When this occurs, the orange LED blinks (step 144), and is reset when the total injection amount reaches 100 mL (step 145), and the injection operation ends (step 146).

  Similarly, when the injection operation is temporarily stopped in step 107 described above, as shown in FIG. 7, the control unit determines whether or not the injection operation is started after the calculation process of the total injection amount is reset. (Step 151).

  When the calculation process of the total injection amount is reset in step 131, the control unit sets the total injection amount to 0 mL and blinks the light blue LED (step 152). Thereafter, when the total injection amount becomes 50 mL or more, the green LED blinks (step 153), when the total injection amount becomes 90 mL or more, the orange LED blinks (step 154), and the total injection amount reaches 100 mL. When this happens, it is reset (step 155), and the injection operation ends (step 156).

  On the other hand, when the calculation process of the total injection amount is not reset in step 151, the control unit continues the total injection amount to 95 mL, the orange LED blinks (step 162), and the total injection amount becomes 100 mL. Sometimes reset (step 165), the injection operation is terminated (step 166).

  Therefore, according to the display device, even when the injection operation is temporarily stopped, the total injection amount can be confirmed by the blinking state of each display lamp.

  As described above, according to the syringe 2 and the chemical liquid injector 1, the position restricting piece 13 provided in the syringe 2 is engaged with the engaging recess 22 of the syringe mounting unit 3, thereby It is possible to reliably prevent the syringe 2 attached to the piston 2 from floating in the sliding direction of the piston member 12 and rotating around the axis in the sliding direction of the piston member 12.
