- to provide a self-capping syringe in which a sheath can be utilized to fit over a reduced portion of the sleeve of the protective cap when in the extended position, for additional safety before disposal, while the sheath can also be placed on the reduced portion of the sleeve when in the retracted position when the needle is exposed for safety prior to use
- to provide a self-capping syringe which is simple and easy to use
- to provide a self-capping syringe which is economical in cost to manufacture
The following pictures are meant to display possible physical characteristics of the present invention and are not to be taken in a limiting sense. It is understood that other embodiments may be utilized and that structural changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
