  • Publication number: 20150258282
    Abstract: A liquid administration device includes a structure that includes an accommodation body configured to accommodate liquid therein and a needle configured to communicate with an inside of the accommodation body; an operation unit configured to discharge the liquid inside the accommodation body from the needle by moving toward the structure in a distal direction; a cover member that is movable between a protection position at which the needle is covered and an exposure position at which the needle is exposed; a first biasing member that biases the operation unit toward the structure in the distal direction; and a second biasing member that biases the cover member in the distal direction. The operation unit has a first contact portion and the structure has a second contact portion, the contact portions being configured to come into contact with each other when the operation unit moves toward the structure in the distal direction.
