  • Device for puckering the flesh to facilitate injections
    Patent number: 5242453
    Abstract: A self-injection facilitating device is made in the form of two arm portions having body contacting jaws at one end and manipulating handles at the other. The jaws are biased toward each other by a spring and have a sharp taper at the inner sides opposed to each other to effectively grasp the flesh at the surface of the body when applied thereto in order to pucker the flesh into a small mound into which an injection can conveniently be made with a hypodermic needle using only one hand. An adjustment arrangement for either the position of the pivot point of the arm portions or the distance of the arms apart at the pivot point is provided.
