Needle assemblies for retractable needle syringes include a needle, a needle seal, and a needle retainer, wherein the needle includes one or more barbs substantially at its proximal end. The needle retainer engages an optional needle-over-mold component that is fixedly attached to the needle. The needle-over-mold may be connected to the distal surface of the needle seal and may travel, such as by being a couple component, with the needle during the operation of the syringe. A safety syringe includes a barrel having a needle assembly mounted at a distal end and a plunger assembly mounted at a proximal end. A drug may be contained in a drug chamber of barrel, between the plunger assembly and needle assembly, proximally of the needle seal for drug delivery to a user. The plunger assembly includes a plunger seal having a needle-engaging portion to capture the needle at the barb for retraction.

An expanding plunger rod () for a syringe (). The expanding plunger rod is configured to transition from a packaged configuration for packaging to an expanded configuration for operation. The expanding plunger rod comprises a substantially cylindrical outer sleeve () having a closed-off bottom end () and an open upper end (). The expanding plunger includes an inner rod () having a lower end () and an upper end (). The inner rod is slidably disposed coaxially within the outer sleeve. In the packaged configuration, the inner rod is nested within the outer sleeve. In the expanded configuration, the inner rod is disposed substantially axially above the outer sleeve, and the inner rod is configured to lock axially in place so as to prevent transition from the expanded configuration to the packaged configuration.

The inner rod is slidably disposed coaxially within the outer sleeve. In the packaged configuration, the inner rod is nested within the outer sleeve.

A retainer for a needle assembly of a retractable syringe that includes a plunger assembly and a barrel having a mounting member. The needle assembly includes a retractable needle, a needle hub, and a retainer. The retractable needle is engageable by the plunger assembly to facilitate retraction thereof. The needle hub is mountable to the mounting member of the barrel. The retainer includes a body and at least one retaining member that extends distally from the body. The retaining member includes an inwardly projecting lateral projection to engage the retractable needle and thereby prevent inadvertent proximal movement of said retractable needle prior to retraction. A retractable needle assembly includes the retainer, and a retractable syringe includes the retractable needle assembly including the retainer. A syringe kit includes a retractable syringe, a plurality of retractable needle assemblies, and a vial adapter.

Retainer for retractable needle assemblies and syringes

A connector mountable to a syringe barrel has a proximal barrel-engaging portion, a distal luer fitment portion, and a fluid aperture therethrough. The barrel-engaging portion of the connector includes an axial ledge configured to abut the axial distal edge of a glass syringe barrel. The connector facilitates mounting a luer assembly to the barrel. The luer assembly may be a tip cap having a complementary luer fitment for connection to the luer fitment portion of the connector. The luer assembly may be a luer needle assembly having a complementary luer fitment for connection to the luer fitment portion of the connector. The connector and syringe may further include an immobile, compressible needle seal. The needle seal is adjacent to or engageable with the barrel-engaging portion of the connector. The syringe may be configured with a plunger capable of engaging a retractable needle.

Luer connection adapters for retractable needle syringes

A connector mountable to a syringe barrel has a proximal barrel-engaging portion, a distal luer fitment portion, and a fluid aperture therethrough. The barrel-engaging portion of the connector includes an axial ledge configured to abut the axial distal edge of a glass syringe barrel. The connector facilitates mounting a luer assembly to the barrel. The luer assembly may be a tip cap, a luer needle assembly, or a luer needle-less assembly, having a complementary luer fitment for connection to the luer fitment portion of the connector. The connector and syringe may further include an immobile, compressible needle seal. The needle seal is adjacent to or engageable with the barrel-engaging portion of the connector.

Luer connection adapters for syringes

Barrel adapters for safety syringes include a barrel and a plunger assembly adapted to move within the barrel, a barrel tip adapted to be sealingly engaged with a distal end of the barrel and a needle retraction mechanism barrel having a needle subassembly and an actuator subassembly. The needle subassembly includes a needle, and a needle-over-mold (NOM) through which the needle extends. The needle subassembly is disposed at least partially within the barrel tip, and adapted to move from an injection position in which the needle extends from a distal end of the barrel tip to a retracted position in which the needle is disposed within at least one of the barrel tip or the barrel. The actuator subassembly includes a needle seal, a push-bar, and an actuator surface. The needle retraction mechanism barrel includes a biasing member and an actuable locking arrangement. A syringe includes such barrel adapters.
