Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9204064A1] A single use syringe having a cylindrical wall (12) extending to a needle mounting (11). The wall (12) has an internal cylindrical surface (13) which cooperates with a slidable piston to enclose at least part of a variable volume chamber (12). A valve assembly (15) is located in the chamber (14) and prevents reuse of the syringe. The valve includes a value seat (22) which cooperates with a moveable valve member (26), which may be of spherical configuration. The valve member (26) is moveable from the upstream side of the valve seat (22), to the downstream side thereof to prevent reuse of the syringe. The piston (plunger head) (269) is captively located within the cylindrical body (261) to prevent its withdrawal and thereby prevent reuse of the syringe by filling the syringe through the rear opening of the cylindrical body (261). The syringe may also be provided with a porous disk (174) which permits a medication in the form of a powder to be located within the syringe and subsequently injected upon being mixed and dissolved in an only withdrawn in the syringe.
