Abstract
A safety device for preventing needle stick injury comprises a ring configured to be attached to the distal tip of a medical injection device, a first hinge portion, and a protective shield. The protective shield comprises a second hinge portion pivotally coupled to the first hinge portion and is configured to adopt successively a storage position covering the needle tip, a retracted position uncovering the needle tip and a safety position covering the needle tip. In the safety position, the protective shield is locked on the ring by engagement of a locking member with a lug on the ring. The locking member is configured to engage the lug when the protective shield transitions from the retracted position to the safety position, passing from one side of the lug to the other, and remaining engaged with the lug for maintaining the protective shield in the safety position.
