FORMULATION DELIVERY SYSTEM

摘要

A system and method of humanely dosing a human or animal with a formulation at a distance. A system capable of dosing a recipient with a formulation having a mass between 10 and 500 grains propelled at low-to-medium ballistic velocities (300 to 800 feet per second) and with medium-to-long range ballistic accuracy (10 to over 100 yards) without causing serious physical harm to, nor the death of, the recipient.

主权项

1. A projectile injection system for dosing a human or animal recipient from a distance, the system comprising:
a housing having a longitudinal axis, a distal end, and a proximal end, wherein said housing has at least one cavity storing a hypodermic formulation and at least one outlet port through which the hypodermic formulation exits said housing; and an injector head having at least one inlet port fluidly connected to the at least one outlet port of the housing, and at least one distal hypodermic needle extending distally from the injector head, the injector head mounted to the distal end of the housing via a rotatable hub, wherein upon contact with the recipient, the at least one distal hypodermic needle penetrates the recipient and the hypodermic formulation exits the at least one cavity and passes through the at least one outlet port of the housing into the at least one inlet port of the injector head and through the at least one distal hypodermic needle, so that the recipient is dosed with the hypodermic formulation without causing serious injury to or the death of the recipient.
