15. A syringe comprising:
-
a body comprising a distal end, a proximal end and a center section therebetween, the center section having an outer diameter, the distal end of the body comprising an injection section including a conical portion that extends and tapers from the center section to an injection neck forming a discharge outlet and the proximal end comprising a radial expansion section having a reduced wall thickness such that an inner diameter of the radial expansion section is larger than an inner diameter of the center section and the outer diameter of the radial expansion section is smaller than an outer diameter of the center section; a plunger movably disposed in the body and comprising a coupling end with a pair of coupling members defining a slot therebetween; an alignment flange formed on the conical portion and extending the distance between the center section and the injection neck, the alignment flange defining an internal hollow area therein in fluid communication with the interior of the body, the internal hollow area of the alignment flange being adapted to collect air bubbles therein that are present within the interior of the body; and a lip extending outward from the proximal end of the body, wherein the outward extending lip has an outer diameter no greater than the outer diameter of the center section. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)
