SAFETY DEVICE FOR A PRE-FILLED SYRINGE AND INJECTION DEVICE

摘要

A safety device (1) for a pre-filled syringe (2) comprises a hollow support body (1.2) to retain the pre-filled syringe (2) therein,a hollow needle shield (1.1) that is slidable relative to the support body (1.2)and guiding means for guiding the movement of the needle shield (1.1.) relative to the support body (1.2).The guiding means comprise a deflectable flexible arm (1.1.4), a guide pin (1.1.3) and a guide track (1.2.2). The deflectable flexible arm extends essentially parallel to a central axis (A) of the safety device (1). The guide pin (1.1.3) extends radial from the flexible arm (1.1.4). The guide track (1.2.2) guides the guide pin (1.1.3) within and along the guide track (1.2.2) when the needle shield (1.1) is slid relative to the support body (1.2).
