- 1 designates an am ule or container for. the substance or liquid to be injected which container is in the form, as usual, o a glass tube or capsule, open at both ends, the substance to be injected being confined therein by a plug or closure 2 inserted in the rear end of the tube and by a ca or closure 3 applied over the front end of t e tube.
- rI he ampule is adapted to have attached to it a syringe structure consisting, in the present instance, of a plunger rod guiding member 4 adapted to be detachably con nected with the rear end of the ampule and sustaining a plunger rod 5, and a needle carrying member 6 supporting a hollow needle 7 and adapted to be detachably connected with the front or discharge end of the ampule.
- the guiding member 4 which forms in effect the handle of the syringe structure, consists of a supporting plate 4a having a central opening fo receive the-ampule, and which opening is surrounded by an axial boss 4b litting against the 'front face of a peripheral ange 4f on the end of the ampule.
- a confining and clamping plate 4f is pivoted at one end and is formed with an axially extending boss 4S having a guiding opening 4h to receive and guide a plunger rod 5.
- the confining plate is 'swung laterally to expose the opening in the supporting plate, and the am ule is then inserted in the opening and tiie flange thereon seated against the boss on the supporting plate.
- the confining plate is now swung back on the supporting plate and the guiding opening 4 therein brought into registration with the axis of the ampule, in which position it is conned by a lip 4 on the supporting plate beneath which the edge of the confining plate is adapted to engage.
- the plunger rod 5 is now pushed down through the guiding opening and its end engaged with the plug or stopper 2, the latter operating as a plunger, as will be presently described, to discharge the contents of the ampule.
- the needle carrying member consists of a sleeve, chambered at its inner end as at 6* to surround the discharge end of the ampule, and formed solid at its outer end to receive and firmly support the needle.
- the needle projects a short distance into the solid po1 t-ion of the carrying member and communicates at its inner extremity with the inner contracted end of a conical passage formed by a conical shell 7 fixed to and extending axially Within the member G, with its inner enlarged end projecting some distance bevond the Wall ot the chamber 6 where it is adapted to cooperate With the cap on the ampule, as will be presently described.
- the detachable connection of the needle carrying member with the discharge end of the ampule is effected in the present instance by means of fingers 61 extending longitudinally from the inner edge of the member 6 at intervals and provided on their extremities with inwardly extending locking lips 6C adapted to seat behindlugs 3a projecting from the side of the discharge end ot' the anipule. ln attaching the needle carrying member to the ampule, the chamber 6 is passed over the end of the ampule and th-e ends of the fingers inserted in the spaces between the lugs, and the member 6 thereupon turned to cause the lips to pass behind and engage the locking lugs.
- the cap 3 for closing the discharge end of the ampule is, in the present instance, made of rubber, and comprises the cylindrical side Wall Slavhich is tightly clasped around the reduced neck 8e on the discharge end of the ampule, and an end Wall 3d which closes across the mouth of the neck.
- the cap is of such form that the end Wall will extend into the mouth of the neck with a slight curvature or concavity, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, when there is no pressure on its inner side tending to deform it; and is adapted tobe deformed and flexed to the opposite curvature so as to become convexed, shown in Fig.
- the end wall of the cap is formed in its inner side at its center with the conical cavity 3e which -extends part Way through it, and it is Jformed at its opposite side with an elongated slit 3f which meets the cavity 3Q, the form and relation of the cavity and slit being such that when the Wall is relieved of pressure and is curved inwardly, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3 the Walls of the slit will be pressed tightly together and the end of the anipule will be sealed by the cap, and when the end wall is subjected to pressure and is convexed, as shown in Fig.
- the walls of the cavity will become parallel to each other, the walls of the slit will separate from each other, as in Fig. 4, and the end of the ampule Will be opened for the discharge of the contents.
- the end wall of the cap, with its cavity and slit related as described, constitutes in effect an outwardly opening check-valve controlling the discharge of the contents of the ampule, the
- valve being adapted to be opened to permit the discharge of the contents when subjected to pressure from the inside, and being adapted to automatically close and prevent the return of the injected substance or other foreign substance when the pressure from the inside is relieved.
- the inner end of the conical shell 7a with which the hollow needle communicates seats against the end Wall'of the cap and surrounds the valve opening therein.
- the conical shell in this way constitutes an abutment for the Wall of the cap and controls its flexing movements.
- the engagement of .the end of the conical shell withthe yield ing material of the cap produces a tension on the locking lips 6c in their engagement with the lugs 3 on the neck of the ampule, and tends to hold the parts firmly con-A nected without looseness.
- the plug or stopper 2 forms in effect, as above described in the operation of the syringe, a plunger for the discharge ofthe contents of the ampule, and, in accordance with my invention, it is of a peculiar form which Will now be described and which, while insuring a uniform advance of the plunger free from jerks or intermittent action, will offer resistance to the retraction or back movement of the plunger.
- the plunger is in the form of two connected sections or portions, a relatively thiek and a relatively hard section 2a, preferably of hard rubber, and a relatively llO thin and relatively soft section 2", which may be of soft rubber, -see Fig.
- the hard section 2a fits less snugly in the ampule than does the section 2b, but they move together in the operation of the syringe, the two sections being formed with registering holes into which the end of the plunger rod is adapted to screw, or may be otherwise engaged when the latter is to be operated.
- the thick and harder section 2L will act as a guide for the softer sectionv 2b, and the latter will follow the harder ⁇ body and the external surface and the softer section will be free to move or trail along the inner surface of the ampule without tendency to bind thereon.
- the ampule 1.2L instead of being of the form shown in Fig. 1 with the reduced neck embraced by a closure cap, is straight and cylindrical 'from end to end, its discharge end being closed by a soft rubber disk 3x constructed with a slit 1c and a hole l, as in the first instance described, to constitute an outwardly opening checkvalve operating substantially similar to the valve of Figs. 1 to 4 in controlling the discharge of the contents.
- the syringe structure in this case consists of a tubular frame 8 having longitudinal slots 9 providing windows through which the ampule may be viewed.
- the frame At its rear end the frame has fixed to it a handle, and it has a plunger rod guiding member 11 carrying a plunger rod 11", detachably connected with the rear end of the frame by means of a bayonet joint constituted i by pins 11a secured on the frame entering slots in the member 11.
- the :trame has secured on it a cap 12 having a central and externally threaded neck, and on this neck is screwed a needle carrying member 13 in which is mounted a' hollow piercing needle 14 terminating in a conical shell 15, the enlarged end of which when the member 13 is screwed on the neck, will abut against the outer face of the closure disk and will surround the valve opening therein.
- the plunger rod guiding member 11 is removed from the upper end of the tubular frame and the ampule is set into place 4in the frame. The member 11 is now applied and locked in position and the needle carrying member screwed on.
- the plunger rod is lengaged with the plunger in the upper end of the ampule, and being pushed inwardly, the plunger will be advanced and will compress the fluid and force the rubber closure disk outwardly andthereby open the valve and permit the contents to be dischanged.- On the relief of the pressure, the closure disk, resuming its former condition, will automatically close the valve and prevent any substance from being sucked back.
- the lform of the ampule above described and illustrated in Fig. 6 is better adapted than that first described, for the injection of drugs and the like.
- the ampule like that shown in Fig. 6 is straight and cylindrical from end to end, but the closure for the discharge end in this case is in the form of a rubber cap 16 fitting tightly over the end of the ampule and formed, similarly to the closures of the preceding figures, with a valve adapted to be opened from pressure within and to close when such pressure is relieved.
- the syringe structure in this case consists of a.
- the collar 18 has a handle 22 fixed to it and a plunger rod guiding member 23, in the form of a cap containing a guiding opening for the plunger rod 24, is screwed on the end of the collar 18, and has depending from it a sleeve 25 which fits loosely within the collar 18 and terminates at its inner end flush with the lower edge of the collar.
- Two tongues 26 extend from the end of the sleeve at diametrically opposite sides and are adapted, by the turning movement of the cap 23 and, consequently, the sleeve, to be registered with the bars 2O or to be moved out of registration with the same, as shown in Fig. 8. ⁇
- the ampule may be inserted laterally into place in the frame, the space between the bars being unobstructed from end to end.
- the sleeve is turned, after the ampule is inserted, and the tongues on the sleeve moved out of register with the bars and positioned in the spaces between the bars, they will act to lock and confine the ampule in place.
- the sleeve is provided with two pins 27 which project inwardly from the inner side of the sleeve in such position/that when the cap 23 is turned to move the tongues out of register with the bars in locking the ampule against escape, the pins will engage the upper end of the ampule, and will, as the sleeve is moved endwise in the screwing action of the cap, force the ampule down on its seat in the lower end of the frame and will hold the same tight and free from wobbling.
- closure 2 in the rear end of the ampule or container, it will be understood that this closure acts in the handling and transportation of the container, as a true stopper, without regard to its other function as a plunger, for by reason of its form and construction as described, it will etfectually resist any tendency of the contents of the container to force it out. Due to this characteristic, it is well adapted to serve as a cork or stopper for bottles and the like.

SYRINGE.
Application led January 30, 1924. Serial No. 689,518.
This invention relates to hypodermic or other syringes for injecting serums, vaccines, drugs, or other solutions, and the invention -is particularly concerned with that type of syringe in which the liquid to be injected is contained in a portable ampule or container which, when the injection is to be made, is assembled or inserted in the syringe structure.
In the operation of such syringes, it sometimes happens that the plunger at the end of its injectingr stroke will retract slightly and draw into the needle blood or other foreign matter from the punctured tissue, and the chief aim of the present invention is to prevent this objectionable action.
The invention may be understood by reference to one illustrative embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a View in side elevation of a syringe structure and my improved ampule designed especially for injecting vaccine;`
Fig. 2 is a view in longitudinal section through thesameshowing the controlling valve closed;
y Fig. 3 is a view in longitudinal section of the discharge end of the ampule and the attached needle, the section being taken at right angles to that represented in 2;
Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 3 with the controlling valve open;
Fig. 4 is a sectional plan View on an enlarrgcd scale, on the line 4 4, Fig. 2;
Fig. 5 is a View in longitudinal section of the ampule detached from the syringe. structure Fig. 6 is a view in longitudinal section of my improved anipule adapted more particularly for the injection of drugs, and showing the same connected with a syringe structure of a form different from that shown in the preceding figures;
Fig. 7 is a view in longitudinal section of my improved ampule in still another form and associated with another type of syringe structure Fig. 8 is a view in longitudinal section of a portion of the syringe structure with the parts in a diiierent position from that occu ied in Fig. 7;
ig. 9 is a View in horizontal section, on the line 9 9, Fig. 7 and Fig. 10 is an enlarged sectional view of the plunger separated from the ampule.
Referring more particularly to Figs. 1 to 5, 1 designates an am ule or container for. the substance or liquid to be injected which container is in the form, as usual, o a glass tube or capsule, open at both ends, the substance to be injected being confined therein by a plug or closure 2 inserted in the rear end of the tube and by a ca or closure 3 applied over the front end of t e tube.
rI he ampule is adapted to have attached to it a syringe structure consisting, in the present instance, of a plunger rod guiding member 4 adapted to be detachably con nected with the rear end of the ampule and sustaining a plunger rod 5, and a needle carrying member 6 supporting a hollow needle 7 and adapted to be detachably connected with the front or discharge end of the ampule.
The guiding member 4, which forms in effect the handle of the syringe structure, consists of a supporting plate 4a having a central opening fo receive the-ampule, and which opening is surrounded by an axial boss 4b litting against the 'front face of a peripheral ange 4f on the end of the ampule. To this plate a confining and clamping plate 4f is pivoted at one end and is formed with an axially extending boss 4S having a guiding opening 4h to receive and guide a plunger rod 5. In assembling these parts, the confining plate is 'swung laterally to expose the opening in the supporting plate, and the am ule is then inserted in the opening and tiie flange thereon seated against the boss on the supporting plate. The confining plate is now swung back on the supporting plate and the guiding opening 4 therein brought into registration with the axis of the ampule, in which position it is conned by a lip 4 on the supporting plate beneath which the edge of the confining plate is adapted to engage.L The plunger rod 5 is now pushed down through the guiding opening and its end engaged with the plug or stopper 2, the latter operating as a plunger, as will be presently described, to discharge the contents of the ampule.
The needle carrying member consists of a sleeve, chambered at its inner end as at 6* to surround the discharge end of the ampule, and formed solid at its outer end to receive and firmly support the needle. The needle projects a short distance into the solid po1 t-ion of the carrying member and communicates at its inner extremity with the inner contracted end of a conical passage formed by a conical shell 7 fixed to and extending axially Within the member G, with its inner enlarged end projecting some distance bevond the Wall ot the chamber 6 where it is adapted to cooperate With the cap on the ampule, as will be presently described.
The detachable connection of the needle carrying member with the discharge end of the ampule is effected in the present instance by means of fingers 61 extending longitudinally from the inner edge of the member 6 at intervals and provided on their extremities with inwardly extending locking lips 6C adapted to seat behindlugs 3a projecting from the side of the discharge end ot' the anipule. ln attaching the needle carrying member to the ampule, the chamber 6 is passed over the end of the ampule and th-e ends of the fingers inserted in the spaces between the lugs, and the member 6 thereupon turned to cause the lips to pass behind and engage the locking lugs.
The cap 3 for closing the discharge end of the ampule is, in the present instance, made of rubber, and comprises the cylindrical side Wall Slavhich is tightly clasped around the reduced neck 8e on the discharge end of the ampule, and an end Wall 3d which closes across the mouth of the neck. The cap is of such form that the end Wall will extend into the mouth of the neck with a slight curvature or concavity, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, when there is no pressure on its inner side tending to deform it; and is adapted tobe deformed and flexed to the opposite curvature so as to become convexed, shown in Fig. 4, when subjected to prcS- sure from the inside, as when the plunger is advanced to expel the contents of the ampule. The end wall of the cap is formed in its inner side at its center with the conical cavity 3e which -extends part Way through it, and it is Jformed at its opposite side with an elongated slit 3f which meets the cavity 3Q, the form and relation of the cavity and slit being such that when the Wall is relieved of pressure and is curved inwardly, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3 the Walls of the slit will be pressed tightly together and the end of the anipule will be sealed by the cap, and when the end wall is subjected to pressure and is convexed, as shown in Fig. 4:, the walls of the cavity will become parallel to each other, the walls of the slit will separate from each other, as in Fig. 4, and the end of the ampule Will be opened for the discharge of the contents. The end wall of the cap, with its cavity and slit related as described, constitutes in effect an outwardly opening check-valve controlling the discharge of the contents of the ampule, the
said valve being adapted to be opened to permit the discharge of the contents when subjected to pressure from the inside, and being adapted to automatically close and prevent the return of the injected substance or other foreign substance when the pressure from the inside is relieved.
It will be observed that the inner end of the conical shell 7a with which the hollow needle communicates seats against the end Wall'of the cap and surrounds the valve opening therein. The conical shell in this way constitutes an abutment for the Wall of the cap and controls its flexing movements. Furthermore, the engagement of .the end of the conical shell withthe yield ing material of the cap, produces a tension on the locking lips 6c in their engagement with the lugs 3 on the neck of the ampule, and tends to hold the parts firmly con-A nected without looseness.
The plug or stopper 2 forms in effect, as above described in the operation of the syringe, a plunger for the discharge ofthe contents of the ampule, and, in accordance with my invention, it is of a peculiar form which Will now be described and which, while insuring a uniform advance of the plunger free from jerks or intermittent action, will offer resistance to the retraction or back movement of the plunger. To accomplish this object, the plunger is in the form of two connected sections or portions, a relatively thiek and a relatively hard section 2a, preferably of hard rubber, and a relatively llO thin and relatively soft section 2", which may be of soft rubber, -see Fig. 10, the hard section 2a fits less snugly in the ampule than does the section 2b, but they move together in the operation of the syringe, the two sections being formed with registering holes into which the end of the plunger rod is adapted to screw, or may be otherwise engaged when the latter is to be operated. In the action of the plunger when the same is advanced, the thick and harder section 2L will act as a guide for the softer sectionv 2b, and the latter will follow the harder` body and the external surface and the softer section will be free to move or trail along the inner surface of the ampule without tendency to bind thereon. When, however, the direction of movement is reversed and the plunger retracted, the soft body traveling in advance will be expanded and spread by the pressure on it of the harder section and its frictional contact with the interior of the ampule will retard its movement and act with a braking effect. This action of the plunger is of advantage in the operation of the syringe in that there is less liability of the plunger to rebound or jerk back at the end of the injecting stroke, and therefore there is less liability of b ack-suction.
In Fig. 6, the ampule 1.2L instead of being of the form shown in Fig. 1 with the reduced neck embraced by a closure cap, is straight and cylindrical 'from end to end, its discharge end being closed by a soft rubber disk 3x constructed with a slit 1c and a hole l, as in the first instance described, to constitute an outwardly opening checkvalve operating substantially similar to the valve of Figs. 1 to 4 in controlling the discharge of the contents. The syringe structure in this case consists of a tubular frame 8 having longitudinal slots 9 providing windows through which the ampule may be viewed. At its rear end the frame has fixed to it a handle, and it has a plunger rod guiding member 11 carrying a plunger rod 11", detachably connected with the rear end of the frame by means of a bayonet joint constituted i by pins 11a secured on the frame entering slots in the member 11. vAt its opposite end, the :trame has secured on it a cap 12 having a central and externally threaded neck, and on this neck is screwed a needle carrying member 13 in which is mounted a' hollow piercing needle 14 terminating in a conical shell 15, the enlarged end of which when the member 13 is screwed on the neck, will abut against the outer face of the closure disk and will surround the valve opening therein. In the assemblage of the parts, the plunger rod guiding member 11 is removed from the upper end of the tubular frame and the ampule is set into place 4in the frame. The member 11 is now applied and locked in position and the needle carrying member screwed on. To operate `the syringe, the plunger rod is lengaged with the plunger in the upper end of the ampule, and being pushed inwardly, the plunger will be advanced and will compress the fluid and force the rubber closure disk outwardly andthereby open the valve and permit the contents to be dischanged.- On the relief of the pressure, the closure disk, resuming its former condition, will automatically close the valve and prevent any substance from being sucked back. The lform of the ampule above described and illustrated in Fig. 6 is better adapted than that first described, for the injection of drugs and the like.
In the form ot the device shown in Figs. 7, 8 and 9, the ampule like that shown in Fig. 6 is straight and cylindrical from end to end, but the closure for the discharge end in this case is in the form of a rubber cap 16 fitting tightly over the end of the ampule and formed, similarly to the closures of the preceding figures, with a valve adapted to be opened from pressure within and to close when such pressure is relieved. The syringe structure in this case consists of a. frame 17 comprising a rear collar 18 and a front cellar 19 connected together by two longitudinal bars 20 (see Fig.A 8) between which the ampule may be inserted laterally into place in the frame 2 and its (front) discharge end seated on the needle carrying member 21, which is screwed on the collar 19.` The collar 18 has a handle 22 fixed to it and a plunger rod guiding member 23, in the form of a cap containing a guiding opening for the plunger rod 24, is screwed on the end of the collar 18, and has depending from it a sleeve 25 which fits loosely within the collar 18 and terminates at its inner end flush with the lower edge of the collar. Two tongues 26 extend from the end of the sleeve at diametrically opposite sides and are adapted, by the turning movement of the cap 23 and, consequently, the sleeve, to be registered with the bars 2O or to be moved out of registration with the same, as shown in Fig. 8.` When in register with said bars, the ampule may be inserted laterally into place in the frame, the space between the bars being unobstructed from end to end. When the sleeve is turned, after the ampule is inserted, and the tongues on the sleeve moved out of register with the bars and positioned in the spaces between the bars, they will act to lock and confine the ampule in place. At its free edge, the sleeve is provided with two pins 27 which project inwardly from the inner side of the sleeve in such position/that when the cap 23 is turned to move the tongues out of register with the bars in locking the ampule against escape, the pins will engage the upper end of the ampule, and will, as the sleeve is moved endwise in the screwing action of the cap, force the ampule down on its seat in the lower end of the frame and will hold the same tight and free from wobbling.
The operation of the parts in making an injection is the same as in connection with the other constructions described, the movement of the plunger inwardly causing the plunger to be advanced and applying pressure to the contents of the ampule, which pressure will act to open the check-valve, which will automatically7 close on the relief of such pressure.
Referring again to the closure 2 in the rear end of the ampule or container, it will be understood that this closure acts in the handling and transportation of the container, as a true stopper, without regard to its other function as a plunger, for by reason of its form and construction as described, it will etfectually resist any tendency of the contents of the container to force it out. Due to this characteristic, it is well adapted to serve as a cork or stopper for bottles and the like.
Obviously the present invention is not restricted to the particular embodiment thereof herein shown and described. Moreover, it is not indispensable that all the features of the invention be used conjointly since they may be employed advantageously in various combinations and subcombinations as defined in the claims.
