Abstract
An injection device includes a housingtocontaining a syringe. The contents of the syringeare viewable through a windowin the mid-sectionof the housing. The windowis concealed by a slideable shutter. The slideable shutteris biased by a bias springwhich also biases an internal syringe carrier. Also disclosed is a reversible needle cap which operates initially to cap the front end of the housing and, upon removal thereof, pulls a needle sheathoff the syringe needle. The cap is designed to be reversible so that, after use, it can be reversed and reconnected to the housing to cover the exposed needle.
