- the solution is based on the introduction of the cartridge, which we will also call more simply syringe, in a housing arranged in the body of the ejection device.
- Such a cartridge or syringe consists of a cylindrical main tank made of plastic or glass, on which is disposed in the front part a tool holder for fixing a needle and in which is housed in the rear part a piston , intended by its mobility in translation to come eject the product contained in the tank.
- the ejection device of the present invention has the advantage of being compatible with the usual packaging methods of the medical product within a syringe cartridge, without requiring modification of these methods or the components used, while benefiting from the advantages of the controlled ejection of the product by the mechanism offered by the ejection device.
- FIG. 1 shows an exploded perspective view of an embodiment of the invention.
- the ejection device consists of a main body obtained by the assembly of three separate components manufactured by plastic injection.
- This body comprises two front portions 2a and 2a 'in the form of half-shells, intended to be connected around the cartridge 10 to form an anterior part called "container holder" of the body of the device, and a rear part 2b integrating the mechanism allowing the implementation of the ejection of the product, as will be explained below.
- the cartridge 10 comprises in its front part a tool holder 12 for receiving a needle, not shown, and a locking device 14, of the type known and standardized under the name of "Luer-lock", which comes under the shape of a ring fixed around the body of the cartridge or integrated in the cartridge so as to prevent detachment of the needle.
- a locking device 14 of the type known and standardized under the name of "Luer-lock" which comes under the shape of a ring fixed around the body of the cartridge or integrated in the cartridge so as to prevent detachment of the needle.
- the high pressure exerted on the product for its ejection is transmitted on the front part of the cartridge and the tool holder 12 has the risk of being ejected from the cartridge 10 at high speed towards the front, in the manner of a dart. Such a situation is naturally very dangerous for the patient.
- the Luer-lock 14 has the function of reducing this risk.
- the two half-shells before 2a and 2a 'of the container-carrier substantially symmetrical with respect to a vertical longitudinal median plane xz of the ejection device, comprise different clips 22a and 22a' cooperating with each other to allow the assembly of the two half -coques and thus form the container carrier.
- This assembly is obtained by bringing the two half-shells closer together in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cartridge.
- two clips 23a of substantially circular arc-shaped section, can respectively cover an upper and lower surface of the circumference of the cartridge.
- the lateral ends 24a of the two clips 23a are separated by a distance in the vertical direction z less than the diameter of the central cylindrical portion of the cartridge 10.
- these clips extend longitudinally over a large surface of the cartridge, over at least half the length of the cartridge, to ensure its high performance.
- any other means for holding the cartridge could be envisaged.
- the two half-shells have two half-rings 21a, 21a 'which form a circular opening at the front face 13 of the container carrier, whose diameter corresponds to that of the cartridge 10 to bear on the main body of the cartridge 10 just behind the Luer-lock 14 when the two half -coques are assembled.
- the ejection device comprises a rear body 2b, in which is positioned a rack 3 in a central cylindrical bore.
- a lever 1 comprising a pawl 4 is movably mounted articulated about an axis, so that the lower end of the pawl 4 comes in cooperation with the rack 3.
- the ratchet 4 actuation of the lever causes the longitudinal movement of the rack 3 beforehand via the pawl 4.
- This rear assembly is obtained by the prior assembly not shown of the rack 3 with the rear body 2b, by its insertion by a rear opening made in the rear body 2b, to its position in which its front end 6 is adapted to a cooperation with the piston of the cartridge 10.
- Lever 1 includes a forwardly extending horizontal top portion for manipulation, and a downwardly inclined portion including an axially shaped rear lower end which is positioned in a corresponding location of rear body 2b.
- the pawl 4 is further connected to the lever 1 in a monolithic structure and extends downwards, towards the inside of the body 2b.
- FIG. 2 illustrates an intermediate step of the assembly of the device in which the device comprises only two front and rear assemblies to be grouped together.
- the front assembly formed by the two half-shells before 2a, 2a 'of the assembled body, forms a container holder, including the cartridge 10 of which only the tool holder 12 and Luer-lock 14 protrude from the front surface 13 container door.
- the rear assembly includes in particular the rear body 2b, the rack 3 and the lever 1 comprising a pawl 4, as has been explained.
- Figure 3 illustrates the device after the end of its assembly. Since the configuration of Figure 2, the assembly between the front and rear assemblies comprises a step of connecting the front portion 6 of the rack 3 to the piston positioned within the cartridge 10. This connection is made by screwing, the 6 end of the rack forming a screw can be screwed into the piston of the cartridge 10. Alternatively, any other connection is possible.
- this final assembly of the ejection device comprises the assembly of the rear body 2b on the container door.
- the rear body 2b has two lateral blades 9 extending longitudinally forwards, adapted to cooperate with lower and upper complementary rails provided against the side walls inside the container holder 2a, for example between the clips 23a.
- the end of these blades 9 has a protrusion 31 facing outwards, intended to cooperate with corresponding openings 8 of the container holder 2a. Any other equivalent mechanical connection between these two parts might be suitable.
- the blades 9 could be on the container door 2a and the corresponding openings 8 on the rear body.
- connection could be hook / cleat type, obtained by a rotational movement of the two parts, by clipping, by a single blade or hook ...
- the different Parts 2a, 2a 'and 2b assemblies then form the main body of the ejection device.
- lever 1 then allows the ejection of the product from the cartridge 10 by the advance of the rack 3 which pushes forward the piston positioned at the rear of the cartridge.
- the lever 1 is pressed downwards against the container carrier 2a by a rotation about its axis of rotation positioned in its rear part, causing an elastic deformation of the pawl 4 resting on the rack 3 around its zone of rotation. connection with the lever 1, thanks to the property of flexibility of the material used and the geometry chosen in particular the connection between the pawl 4 and the lever 1.
- This movement of the pawl 4 allows its toothed end which cooperates with teeth of the rack 3, to induce a pushing force on the rack and its advance within the bore of the body, to act on the piston of the cartridge and cause the ejection of the product contained in this cartridge.
- the pawl 4 exerts an elastic return force towards its initial position while bringing the lever 1 towards its initial high position.
- a non-return ratchet not shown, arranged in the body of the device, prevents the rack 3 from going back.
- FIG. 4 represents a second embodiment of the invention, which differs from the previous one in that the front part or container holder of the body of the ejection device is composed of only one piece 2a comprising an indentation 5 extending longitudinally over the entire length of the container holder and of sufficient width for the passage of the syringe or cartridge 10 to its positioning in a housing, not shown, arranged in the container holder.
- the part 2a may have a notch of small width and elastically deform for the passage of the cartridge.
- the container carrier further comprises mechanical holding means, such as clips, not shown.
- the insertion of the cartridge into its housing is in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis x.
- the notch 5 is in the upper part of the container holder and the insertion of the cartridge is in a vertical direction z.
- the notch 5 could be on any other side face of the device, from the moment it extends over a sufficient length in the longitudinal direction x to allow the insertion of the cartridge.
- the notch 5 could not extend over the total length of the container carrier, as in the illustrated embodiment, but on a portion only extending from the front face 13 of the container holder 2a, so that the cartridge could be inserted in a direction comprising a vertical component z and a longitudinal component x to the rear to back it, before finalizing its final maintenance in the housing by a movement according to a vertical component z.
- FIGS. 7 to 10 illustrate a variant of the first embodiment, which comprises a means of additional retention of the front part of the cartridge, which undergoes significant forces during the ejection of the product and risks being projected towards the 'before, as was recalled earlier.
- this holding means consists on the one hand of a groove 11 made in the rear part of the Luer-lock 14, and on the other hand of the ring 21a, 21a 'of the part front 13 of the device which is housed within this groove 11 during assembly of the two half-shells 2a, 2a ', as is particularly visible in Figure 10.
- the body of the ejection device maintains the anterior part of the cartridge and prevents its forward ejection.
- the holding means may be in the form of a clip or a retainer.
- the cartridge 10 of the container door comes to the edge of the blades 9 at the openings 8 so that the reverse movement of the rear body 2b , which would require a new deformation of the blades 9 by pressing the protuberances 31 to extract the openings 8 while pulling the body 2b rearward, is made difficult or impossible.
- This geometry thus hinders this escapement of the protuberances 31 and allows a locking or quasi-locking of the body after assembly, which is therefore not or very difficult to dismantle, that is to say that the assembly is irreversible or almost irreversible.
- This embodiment guarantees the disposable nature of the ejection device, which is advantageous. to ensure the safety and hygiene of the device, which can only be used once to eject the volume of product chosen. This guarantee is therefore obtained by combining two main factors:
- the invention therefore has the advantage of allowing the use of a standardized rectilinear syringe within a device comprising a controlled ejection mechanism, allowing the user-friendly ejection of a predetermined precise dose, without risk of error .
- the ejection device thus comprises a means for introducing a syringe into a housing provided in the front part of his body.
- This means can either be obtained by a multi-part structure of this front part of the body, these parts being able to be assembled around the body of the syringe, or by a one-piece structure comprising a notch extending in a longitudinal direction.
- this means allows the introduction of the syringe in a direction comprising a non-zero component in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis x, which makes it compatible with all existing syringe geomethes, especially with those comprise Luer-lock type locking means in their anterior part, of greater diameter than the remainder of the syringe.
- the introduction of the syringe is done by any other solution than a longitudinal introduction from the rear, which would not allow the proper positioning of the bulky part of a syringe before with a tip type Luer lock.
- the solution of the invention is also suitable for all syringes, standardized or not, of circular section or not, with tips or not ...
- it is also suitable for the introduction of a cartridge without door tool, the latter being directly attached to the body of the ejection device.
- the body of the ejection device may comprise more than two parts to be assembled, these distinct parts being obtained by cuts along a longitudinal plane; thus, the assembly of these parts is obtained by their approximation in a substantially perpendicular direction relative to the longitudinal axis and therefore the syringe positioned along this axis.
- the front part of the device comprises a notch which extends longitudinally from its anterior face for a length at least equal to one third of the length of the syringe 10.
- the body of the ejection device has been shown as being in at least two parts, front and rear, separated along a transverse vertical plane yz. Alternatively, the body of the device may not have this front and rear separation, the part (s) of this body extending continuously over the entire length of the device.
- the ejection device has been shown as similar to the ejection device described in FR2913341, by way of example.
- the concept of the invention can be implemented with other types of geometries, and other ejection mechanisms based on levers, buttons ...
- the invention also relates to the method of manufacturing or assembling an ejection device, which comprises the essential step of introducing a syringe into a body of the ejection device in any direction other than a longitudinal introduction from the rear.
- This introduction therefore advantageously comprises a direction with a non-zero component in a direction perpendicular to the body, and preferably a direction substantially perpendicular to the body, in particular during its final fixing in its housing within this body.
- the introduction of the cartridge may be effected by opening the anterior face 13 of the body of the ejection device, and no longer by a side face.
- a cartridge having no flange in its rear part contrary to the embodiments illustrated.
- the method of assembly of the ejection device may be based on the assembly of a few distinct main elements, of simple form allowing their manufacture in plastic material by simple injection.
- it may consist of manufacturing separately by injection of plastic material the lever 1, the part or parts 2a, 2a 'forming the container carrier, the rear body 2b and the rack 3.
- the material used may be polyamide, polypropylene, ABS or any other plastic material.
- a recyclable or biodegradable plastic will be well suited to the device that is disposable after use.
- a transparent plastic material may also advantageously be used, in particular for the container carrier, to enable the syringe comprising the product to be ejected to be viewed, at least through a window.
- the foregoing components may be made differently and in other materials.
- the rack 3 may for example be made of stainless steel. Then the method of manufacturing the ejection device comprises the following assembly steps, described above:
- -assembling a container holder assembly comprising the cartridge; -assembling a rear assembly comprising a lever, a rear body 2b, and a rack 3;
- the invention also relates to an assembly kit, which comprises the essential elements to assemble, allowing easy transport and optimal hygiene since the final assembly is performed at the last moment before the use of the ejection device, and guarantees hygienic storage of the packaged product in the syringe.
- This kit will therefore include the following two elements:
- the different distinct elements of the ejection device will preferably be unassembled, or possibly partially assembled, in this assembly kit, which may therefore include the following elements: one or more part (s) of a main body the separate part (s) being separated, a cartridge or syringe containing a product to be ejected, a lever, a rack, and a tool such as a needle.
- the device according to the present invention has been designed on the basis of the concept of disposable device, as has been presented as a previously advantageous embodiment.
