Abstract
Abstract A device for detaching an injection needle from a syringe comprising: a plate-like member, a first opening provided in the plate-like member for inserting an injection needle attached to a syringe, a first needle-detaching means for detaching a slip type needle, said first means comprising a second opening extending laterally from said first opening, and a sliding portion provided on each of both sides of said second opening, each sliding portion having a wedge-like shape, and a second needle-detaching means for a screw type needle, said second means comprising a third opening extending laterally from said first opening, said third opening having a portion having such a size that the hub of said needle is capable of being inserted thereinto, said portion being provided with a projection for preventing the hub of said needle from turning when the syringe is turned. By using the device, both the slip type needle and the screw type needle can be detached from the syringe with safety without touching the needle with finger.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
273 words
A device for detaching an injection needle from a syringe comprising: a plate-like member, a first opening provided in the plate-like member for inserting an injection needle attached to a syringe, a first needle-detaching means for detaching a slip type needle, and a second needle-detaching means for detaching a screw type needle, said first opening having a size larger than the largest part of said needle, said first needle-detaching means comprising a second opening extending laterally from said first opening, and a sliding portion provided on each of both sides of said second opening, said second opening having a width larger than the diameter of the nozzle of said syringe and smaller than the diameter of the hub of said needle, each of said sliding portion having a side wall defining said second opening, each of said side walls having, at the entrance of the second opening from said first opening, a thickness smaller than a distance between the root of the nozzle of said syringe and the bottom end of the hub of said needle when the needle is being attached to said syringe, each of said side walls being made gradually thicker toward the closed end of said second opening, the maximum thickness of each of said side walls being larger than said distance, said second needle-detaching means comprising a third opening extending laterally from said first opening, said third opening having a portion having such a size that the hub of said needle is capable of being inserted thereinto, said portion being provided with a projection for preventing the hub of said needle from turning when the syringe is turned.

A device for detaching an injection needle from a syringe comprising: a plate-like member, a first opening provided in the plate-like member for inserting an injection needle attached to a syringe, a first needle-detaching means for detaching a slip type needle, and a second needle-detaching means for detaching a screw type needle, said first opening having a size larger than the largest part of said needle, said first needle-detaching means comprising a second opening extending laterally from said first opening, and a sliding portion provided on each of both sides of said second opening, said second opening having a width larger than the diameter of the nozzle of said syringe and smaller than the diameter of the hub of said needle, each of said sliding portion having a side wall defining said second opening, each of said side walls having, at the entrance of the second opening from said first opening, a thickness smaller than a distance between the root of the nozzle of said syringe and the bottom end of the hub of said needle when the needle is being attached to said syringe, each of said side walls being made gradually thicker toward the closed end of said second opening, the maximum thickness of each of said side walls being larger than said distance, said second needle-detaching means comprising a third opening extending laterally from said first opening, said third opening having a portion having such a size that the hub of said needle is capable of being inserted thereinto, said portion being provided with a projection for preventing the hub of said needle from turning when the syringe is turned.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
30 words
The device of claim 1, in which the angle between both edge lines of each side wall in the longitudinal direction of said second opening is from 5° to 45°.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
72 words
The device of claim 1, in which said third opening comprises a big-sized portion having such a size that the hub of the needle is smoothly inserted thereinto and a small-sized portion extending vertically from the big-sized portion and having such a size that only the tip portion of the hub is capable of being inserted thereinto, said projection being provided on a part of the side wall of the small-sized portion.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
25 words
The device of claim 1, in which said plate-like member is designed so that it is detachably installed to a container for containing removed needles.
