Abstract

The disclosed technology relates to medicinal fluid injection devices. In one aspect, a medicinal fluid injection device includes a housing having an opening in a side surface thereof, a storage container arranged inside the housing and configured to store a medicinal fluid, an injection needle connected to the storage container and configured to inject the medicinal fluid when stored in the storage container through the opening, and a cover body covering the opening, wherein the cover body includes a cover part configured such that the a shape of the cover part changes according to air pressure caused by the injection needle.

Claims (16)

1. A medicinal fluid injection device comprising:

a housing, a surface of the hosing having an opening;

a container arranged inside the housing and configured to store a medicinal fluid;

a needle fluidly connected to the container;

a pump arranged inside the housing, the medicinal fluid of the container configured to move to the needle by the pump;

an auxiliary cover part corresponding to the opening; and

a cover part corresponding to the opening and facing the auxiliary cover part such that a space is defined between the cover part and the auxiliary cover part,

wherein the medicinal fluid injection device is configured such that air in the needle is discharged toward the space by movement of the medical fluid caused by the pump during a priming operation, and

wherein the cover part of the cover body is configured to bulge in a direction away from the housing due to the priming operation.

2. The medicinal fluid injection device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a frame positioned on a surface of the housing and having a hole corresponding to the opening, wherein the cover part is positioned on a side of the frame.

3. The medicinal fluid injection device of claim 2 , wherein the frame comprises a protrusion extending toward the housing.

4. The medicinal fluid injection device of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the cover part or the auxiliary cover part is formed of a material comprising a polymer.

5. The medicinal fluid injection device of claim 1 , wherein the auxiliary cover part comprises a convex portion that has convexity in a direction toward the housing.

6. The medicinal fluid injection device of claim 1 , wherein a center portion of the cover part has a thickness less than that of the rim portion of the cover part.

7. The medicinal fluid injection device of claim 1 , wherein the cover part of the cover body is configured to bulge in a longitudinal direction of the needle.
