Abstract

Herein an injection dummy ( 2 ) disclosed. The injection dummy comprising a body ( 4 ) and a lid ( 6 ), wherein the body ( 4 ) forms a bowl ( 8 ) for receiving and holding a liquid, the bowl ( 8 ) comprising side surfaces ( 10 ) and a bottom surface ( 12 ), and wherein the lid ( 6 ) comprises a resilient material adapted to be penetrated by a needle. The lid ( 6 ) is adapted to be in liquid sealing contact with the body ( 4 ) by the resilient material abutting against the side surfaces ( 10 ) of the bowl ( 8 ).

Claims (19)

1. An injection dummy, comprising:

a body, wherein the body forms a bowl for receiving and holding a liquid, the bowl comprising substantially rigid side surfaces and a bottom surface, wherein the bowl is a transparent material; and

a lid, wherein the lid comprises a resilient material adapted to be penetrated by a needle, and the lid is adapted to be in liquid-sealing contact with the body by the resilient material abutting against the side surfaces of the bowl.

2. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the side surfaces define an opening of the bowl, the opening being adapted to be closed by the lid and to face upwardly during injection of a liquid through the lid.

3. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the bowl only comprises only concave transitions between the side surfaces and concave transitions between the side surfaces and the bottom surface.

4. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the side surfaces extend substantially perpendicularly to the bottom surface.

5. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the body includes a recess that forms a spout connected to the bowl, and the spout is adapted to guide a liquid poured out of the bowl when the lid has been removed from the body.

6. The injection dummy of claim 5 , wherein the lid comprises a graspable lip extending along at least a portion of the recess.

7. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the body is made from a transparent material.

8. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the body comprises a first outer friction surface, and at least a portion of the first outer friction surface forms an outer lateral surface of the body.

9. The injection dummy of claim 8 , wherein the body comprises a second outer friction surface, and the second outer friction surface is arranged substantially opposite to the opening.

10. The injection dummy of claim 8 , wherein a portion of the body comprises an outer elastic member that comprises at least one of the first outer friction surface and the second outer friction surface.

11. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the lid comprises a silicone material.

12. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the lid comprises a penetration area having a thickness of 1-2 millimeters.

13. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the lid comprises a rim that has a thickness of 2-4 millimeters.

14. The injection dummy of claim 13 , wherein the rim includes at least one flange adapted to abut against the side surfaces of the bowl.

15. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the lid comprises a first position indicator, the body comprises a second position indicator, and the first and second position indicators are adapted to be aligned when the lid is in liquid-sealing contact with the body.

16. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the bowl is either glass or an acrylic plastic.

17. The injection dummy of claim 1 , wherein the bowl is a thermoplastic material.
