摘要:
Various embodiments of syringe assemblies include a syringe barrel and a substantially conical tip or outlet disposed on the distal end of the barrel. The substantially conical tip includes a locking mechanism that engages an extension of a plunger assembly extending from a distal end of the plunger assembly so as to retain the extension within the substantially conical tip or outlet upon full injection of the contents of the syringe to a patient. According to one embodiment, a plunger head of the plunger assembly is slidably disposed on the extension. According to another embodiment, a separate hub, which holds a needle cannula, is disposed on an outlet at the distal end of the syringe barrel, which contains the locking mechanism. According to a further embodiment, the locking mechanism includes a locking clip disposed within the substantially conical tip of the syringe assembly.

A syringe assembly includes a syringe barrel having an inside surface defining a chamber, an open proximal end, a distal end, and an outlet; a plunger assembly disposed at least partially within the syringe barrel, including an elongate plunger rod having a locking flange formed thereon; and a plunger head having a distal sealing surface, the plunger rod being engageable with the plunger head such that the plunger rod is adapted to move the plunger head within the chamber of the syringe barrel through an injection cycle; and a flange lock disposed at the open proximal end of the barrel. The flange lock is integral with the open proximal end of the syringe barrel. During the injection cycle, the flange lock engages the locking flange of the plunger rod so as to prevent removal of the plunger rod from the syringe barrel.

Syringe assemblies having a passive disabling system to prevent reuse are provided. According to one or more embodiments, the syringe assembly comprises a barrel, plunger rod and stopper wherein the plunger rod further comprises a locking protrusion that locks the plunger rod within the barrel. Certain embodiments further include a frangible portion on the plunger rod that breaks when reuse is attempted. One or more embodiments include a plunger rod and stopper attachment that prevents disassembly of the syringe assembly prior to use. Syringe assemblies of one or more embodiments also include visual indicators or markers indicating whether a syringe assembly is used or the plunger rod is locked within the barrel.

A segmented multi-product package assembly contains articles such as hypodermic syringe tip caps. The package assembly includes a tray which contains a plurality of receptacles having open ends associated with an upper surface of the tray. These receptacles are arranged so that sealing areas on the upper surface lie between adjacent open ends. A cover is removably sealed to the sealing areas and covers the receptacles. The cover is partially removable from the tray to expose a selectable number of articles while the unused articles remain protected in sealed receptacles.

A syringe assembly includes a syringe barrel having an inside surface defining a chamber and an outlet. A plunger assembly is disposed within the syringe barrel and includes an elongate plunger rod having a distal end surface, a plunger head having a distal sealing surface and a proximal end surface having a continuous perimeter, and a breakable neck portion integrally connecting the plunger rod and the plunger head. A retaining ring lock is disposed on the inside surface of the barrel and defines an engagement surface about a perimeter of the chamber. The retaining ring lock is adapted to engage and retain the plunger head in a locked position within the chamber. The engagement surface of the retaining ring lock engages the continuous perimeter of the proximal end surface of the plunger head in a perimetrical engagement when the plunger head is in the locked position.

A syringe assembly having passive disabling structure includes a barrel and a plunger rod assembly. The plunger rod assembly includes a plunger rod and a stopper connected by an indexing locking element. The number of strokes of the syringe plunger before the stopper is locked into the barrel rendering the syringe assembly unusable is determined by the number of detents on the plunger rod and stopper which engage the locking mechanism. Upon completion of the final delivery stroke, any attempt to withdraw the plunger rod from the barrel will cause the locking element to engage the barrel and trap the stopper in the barrel preventing further use of the syringe.

摘要:
A photocurable material having a microfluidic endoskeleton constructed in a flexible polymeric slab is disclosed. The flexible polymeric slab comprises a first flexible polymeric sheet with microchannel network embedded thereon and a second flexible polymeric sheet sealed to the first flexible polymeric sheet. The microchannel network is filled with a photocurable fluid that may be solidified upon exposure to an activated light to create a rigid endoskeleton within the slab. The flexible polymeric sheet may be polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). The process allows preserving a user-defined shape by illumination of the material. The disclosed photocured shaped PDMS slab with microfluidic skeleton has enhanced tensile stress-strain properties, elastomeric modulus and bending modulus compared to the PDMS slab without the photocured microfluidic skeleton.
