Abstract

The present invention discloses a disposable safety syringe that has a needle hub having an accommodating space therein for various purposes. More specifically, the present invention provides a needle hub, configured to an end of a barrel, wherein the needle hub comprises an internal needle, an external needle and a hub body. The hub body has an accommodating space formed therein, the internal needle is configured at a proximal end of the hub body, the external needle is configured at a distal end of the hub body, the internal needle and the external needle are connected to the accommodating space for various purposes. Furthermore, the present application further provides a multi-stage protector for avoiding needle prick accidents.

Claims

1. A disposable safety syringe, for injecting a first solution in a sealed cartridge to a subject matter, comprising:

a barrel, having a first opening and a corresponding second opening, the barrel extending along an extension direction;

a handle, configured to the first opening of the barrel;

a plunger, having a rod, the rod penetrating through the handle so as to enter the barrel via the first opening thereof, for allowing the rod to slide along the extension direction inside the barrel; and

a needle hub, configured to the second opening of the barrel, the needle hub comprising an internal needle, an external needle and a hub body, the hub body having an accommodating space formed therein, the internal needle configured at a proximal end of the hub body, the external needle configured at a distal end of the hub body, the internal needle and the external needle connected to the accommodating space respectively;

wherein, while the sealed cartridge is disposed in the barrel and the first solution in the sealed cartridge can be injected to the subject matter via the internal needle, the accommodating space and the external needle by applying a force to the plunger.

2. The disposable safety syringe of claim 1, wherein the barrel, the handle and the plunger are formed of high polymer based material.

3. The disposable safety syringe of claim 1, further comprising a hollow protector, the hollow protector having a groove and a hook formed on the linear surface of the groove, the hook dividing the groove into a sliding portion, a fixing portion and a tunnel portion disposed therebetween;

wherein the disposable safety syringe has a pre-use phase and a used phase, in the pre-use phase, a protrusion formed on the linear surface corresponding to the second opening of the barrel is moveably configured in the sliding portion of the groove, in the used phase, the protrusion is fixed with the hook in the fixing portion, meanwhile, the whole needle hub is disposed in the hollow protector.

4. The disposable safety syringe of claim 3, wherein, the hook extends rearward from the latent surface of the groove, while the disposable safety syringe is switched from the pre-use phase to the used phase, the protrusion slides from the sliding portion to the fixing portion via the tunnel portion, while the protrusion passes the tunnel portion, the protrusion presses and plastically deforms the hook so as to enlarge the tunnel portion for allowing the protrusion to pass therethrough.

5. The disposable safety syringe of claim 3, wherein the sliding portion of the groove has a concave formed at the end of the sliding portion corresponding to the first opening, the concave allows the protrusion to be disposed therein for fixation.

6. The disposable safety syringe of claim 5, wherein the concave has an entrance and the entrance is in tight fit with the protrusion.

7. The disposable safety syringe of claim 3, wherein, the protrusion has a sharp corner with an acute angle, while the disposable safety syringe is in the used phase, the sharp corner is embedded in the hook and fixed therewith so as to prevent the protrusion from re-entering the tunnel portion.

8. The disposable safety syringe of claim 1, wherein the internal needle is staggered to the external needle.

9. The disposable safety syringe of claim 1, wherein the accommodating space has a filtering member disposed therein for filtering the first solution.

10. The disposable safety syringe of claim 1, wherein the first solution is an anesthetic.

11. The disposable safety syringe of claim 1, wherein the needle hub is formed as one pieced with the barrel.

12. The disposable safety syringe of claim 1, wherein the handle is formed as one pieced with the barrel.

13. A needle hub for a syringe, comprising an internal needle, an external needle and a hub body, the hub body having an accommodating space formed therein, the internal needle configured at a proximal end of the hub body, the external needle configured at a distal end of the hub body, the internal needle and the external needle connected to the accommodating space respectively;

wherein, while the needle hub is connected with a barrel with a sealed cartridge disposed therein and a first solution in the sealed cartridge can be injected to a subject matter via the internal needle, the accommodating space and the external needle.
