  • Patent number: 10918806
    Abstract: A safe syringe includes a barrel, a needle seat and a plunger, wherein the needle seat has a hook rod, a linkage deformation portion and a barrel clamping portion; and the plunger has a rod body, and a hook insertion hole which can be sleeved with the hook rod of the needle seat and compress the linkage deformation portion for elastic deformation such that the barrel clamping portion of the needle seat is not clamped into the seat clamping slot of the barrel, and the hook insertion hole can hook the hook rod of the needle seat to move the needle seat. The safe syringe can allow stable positioning and quick pullback of the needle seat and effectively reduce liquid medicine residue.

  • Patent number: 7824381
    Abstract: A safety disposable syringe includes: a barrel; a plunger extending into the barrel; a piston mounted on the plunger and formed with a first engaging member; and a needle seat extending fittingly into the barrel and having a front end disposed outwardly of the barrel, and a rear end disposed in the barrel and having a rear end face facing toward the piston. The needle seat defines a fluid passage extending through the rear end face of the rear end of the needle seat. The needle seat is formed with a second engaging member. The fluid passage has a terminating end terminated at the rear end face of the rear end of the needle seat. The second engaging member has a terminating end terminated at the rear end face of the rear end of the needle seat and spaced apart from the first terminating end of the fluid passage.

  • Patent number: 7258503
    Abstract: A device for adjusting the position of a printer head of a barcode printer includes a casing mounted to the barcode printer and a base movably coupled to the casing. A slide board is slidably supported on the base and carries the printer head. A first adjuster is arranged between the slide board and the base to selectively move and thus adjust the position of the printer head in the longitudinal direction. A second adjuster couples the first adjuster to the base to selectively move the slide board on the base in the transverse direction, which in turn adjusts the transverse position of the printer head. A third adjuster couples the base to the casing to selectively move the base with respect to the casing and thus adjust the position of the printer head in the vertical direction.

  • Patent number: 6669666
    Abstract: A safety syringe includes: a syringe cylinder having a plurality of sleeve ribs formed in a sleeve portion of the syringe cylinder, a needle device having a needle detachably coupled on an shank portion which is provided with a plurality of shank ribs on the shank portion to be engaged with the sleeve ribs in the sleeve portion, with the needle device retractable in and automatically biased in the syringe cylinder to prevent outward protruding of used needle; whereby upon external connecting and rotative coupling of the needle on the shank portion, the shank portion will be locked without being rotatable, thereby enhancing a smooth coupling of the needle on the shank portion of the needle device.

  • Publication number: 20030060758
    Abstract: A safety syringe includes: a plunger slidably held in a syringe cylinder having a flexible coupling rod normally longitudinally formed at a central portion of the plunger, and a needle device detachably secured in a front portion of the syringe cylinder having a tilting hole inclinedly formed in a rear portion of the needle device, whereby upon finishing the injection of the syringe by engaging the flexible coupling rod with the tilting hole to couple the used needle device with the plunger, and upon a rearward retraction of the plunger with the coupled needle device into the syringe cylinder, the flexible coupling rod will automatically resiliently restore to inclinedly bias the coupled needle device within the cylinder to prevent outward protruding of the used needle device for safety protection.

  • Patent number: 6409703
    Abstract: A safety syringe for intravenous injection includes: a syringe cylinder having a plurality of sleeve ribs formed in a sleeve portion eccentrically formed on the syringe cylinder, a needle device having a needle detachably coupled on an shank portion which is provided with a plurality of shank ribs on the shank portion to be engaged with the sleeve ribs in the sleeve portion, with the needle device retractable in and automatically biased in the syringe cylinder to prevent outward protruding of used needle; whereby upon external connecting and rotative coupling of the needle on the shank portion, the shank portion will be locked without being rotatable, thereby enhancing a smooth coupling of the needle on the shank portion of the needle device. The syringe cylinder is also formed with an annular extension for limiting a rearward releasing of the plunger once inserted in the cylinder.
