<p>Provision is made for a protective device (4) for a piercing or cutting object for medical purposes, such as a hypodermic needle (3), comprising a base part (5) to which the piercing or cutting object can be attached, and a protective element (6) which is hingedly connected by means of a hinge line (9) to the base part (5), and can be pivoted into a first position, in which said protective device at least partially encloses the piercing or cutting object, and into a second position, in which the piercing or cutting object is released and its use is essentially not impeded by the protective device. According to the invention, at the side of the protective device (4) where the hinge line (9) is situated, the protective element (6) is further connected to the base part (5) by means of at least one resiliently deformable member (11), of which the fastening point to the base part (5) and the protective element (6) respectively is situated at a distance from the hinge pin of the hinge line, in such a way that in the first position of the protective element (6) the direct connecting line between said respective points lies at the side of the hinge line (9) facing the piercing or cutting object, and in the second position of the protective element (6) lies at the opposite side of the hinge line (9).</p> |
