Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide the injection cylinder which prevents liquid from leakage and smoothly moves an inside cylinder with a little force at the time of use by forming the front end part of the inside cylinder of elastic rings, and a hard material holding this ring and connecting the hard material by means of screws. CONSTITUTION:A part 1 is the part at the foremost end of the inside cylinder of the injection cylinder and has a mushroom shape consisting of a circular part making contact with the inside wall of the outside cylinder of the injection cylinder and a part of a handle extending from the central part. The neck part of the handle has a threaded part meshing with a part 2. The part 2 is a part for holding the rings made of the elastic materials together with the part 1 and has an inclination on the contact surface with the rings. The central part is bored with a doughnut-shaped hole and the handle of the part 1 passes this hole. The parts 1, 2 are connected by the screws. The part 3 is for tightening and loosening the part 1 and the part 2 and the hard material is used for this part like the parts 1, 2. The parts 5, 6 are the rings made of the elastic materials and are used to prevent the infiltration of a liquid wed cine into the spacing between the part 1 and the part 2. A part 6 prevents the deviation of the inside cylinder at the time of infecting the liquid medicine.

2. Description of the Related Art A product sold by enclosing a liquid medicine in a syringe is sterilized while the liquid medicine is filled in the syringe, and therefore liquid leakage often occurs due to pressure change in the syringe after and during sterilization. . Also, when it is distributed as a product, it may simply leak out from the gap between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder, which serve as the lid. In order to prevent this liquid leakage, many of the products currently on the market have been devised in the inner cylinder of the injection cylinder, but the most common type uses a rubber typified by butyl rubber at the tip of the inner cylinder. However, there are some that have been devised in their shape. For example, the actual development sho 60-49
In No. 846, the inner cylinder is formed of a convex spherical surface or a concave spherical surface that is substantially concentric with the injection hole of the injection needle, thereby increasing the contact pressure of each part and preventing the injection liquid from leaking out.

However, if the filling amount of the chemical liquid is small, there is no serious problem, but if the filling amount is large, there is a problem that it is not enough to devise the rubber shape. Furthermore, there is a drawback in that the more the liquid leakage is prevented and the better the sealing performance is, the more force is required to move the inner cylinder during use, and further improvement has been demanded. In view of the above situation, the present inventors have
We have begun research on an injection cylinder that does not leak during sterilization or storage, and the inner cylinder can move smoothly with a slight force during use.
