  • Patent number: 11712526
    Abstract: A safety device for an injection syringe including a syringe support, a protective sheath for protecting an injection needle carried by the injection syringe, the protective sheath being mounted to slide relative to the syringe support between an injection position in which the needle is uncovered, and a protection position in which the needle is covered, the protective sheath having an initial grip surface enabling the device to be gripped by a user, the initial grip surface being a projection that extends outward from the protective sheath, and a return spring for urging the sheath into the protection position. The sheath also includes an extender member for extending the initial grip surface, being a separate piece from the protective sheath, attached to the protective sheath in such a manner as to present an enlarged grip surface, larger than the initial grip surface.

  • Patent number: 9675765
    Abstract: The syringe comprises a body containing the liquid and having fitted thereto an endpiece for fastening a needle carrier. The safety device comprises a protective sheath and a syringe support that is received inside the sheath. The sheath and the support are axially movable relative to each other between two positions, namely an uncovered position of the needle, and a retracted position of said needle. The support includes anti-rotation means for constraining it in rotation about its axis and comprising at least one pawl urged resiliently into a position in which the pawl is designed to co-operate with complementary anti-rotation means of the fastener endpiece. The sheath and the support include complementary anti-rotation means for constraining them in rotation relative to each other about their axes and activated at least when the sheath and the support are in their uncovered position of the needle.
