OPERATIONAL INSTRUMENT FOR FLUID INJECTOR USING MULTI-MICRONEEDLE DEVICE
First Claim
1. An operation tool for a fluid injector having a multi-microneedle device, comprising:
- an outer cylinder having a first open end, a second open end, and a housing extending from the first open end to the second open end, the housing being formed such that a fluid injector having a multi-microneedle device is movable in the housing along a longitudinal axis of the fluid injector; and
a selective transfer mechanism provided on the outer cylinder and configured to move the fluid injector from an initial position to a first protrusion position and then to a second protrusion position in the housing of the outer cylinder,wherein the selective transfer mechanism is configured such that, when the fluid injector is at the initial position, the multi-microneedle device has a plurality of microneedles retracted from the first open end of the outer cylinder and positioned inside the housing, when the fluid injector is at the first protrusion position, the microneedles are protruded out to a first distance from the first open end, and when the fluid injector is at the second protrusion position to discharge fluid through the microneedles of the multi-microneedle device, the microneedles are protruded out to a second distance from the first open end, the second distance being shorter than the first distance.

Abstract
An operation tool for a fluid injector includes an outer cylinder having a housing extending from a first open end to a second open end, and a selective transfer mechanism provided on the outer cylinder. The selective transfer mechanism moves the fluid injector from an initial position to a first protrusion position and then to a second protrusion position in the housing of the outer cylinder. When the fluid injector is at the initial position, the multi-microneedle device has microneedles retracted from the first open end and positioned inside the housing, when the fluid injector is at the first protrusion position, the microneedles are protruded out to a first distance from the first open end, and when the fluid injector is at the second protrusion position, the microneedles are protruded out to a second distance from the first open end. The second distance is shorter than the first distance.
