Abstract

A chemical-liquid injection head including a syringe holding unit which holds a syringe in which a piston member is slidably inserted into a cylinder member having a circular cylindrical shape, a piston driving mechanism having a ram member for moving the piston member of the syringe, and a first light emitting portion which emits light with a first color and illuminates the syringe and a second light emitting portion which emits light with a second color and illuminates the syringe. The first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion, viewed in a posture at the time of use of the injection head, are provided at an upper side of the ram member.

Claims (31)

1. An injection head comprising:

a: a syringe holding unit which holds a syringe in which a piston member is slidably inserted into a cylinder member having a circular cylindrical shape;

b: a piston driving mechanism having a ram member for moving the piston member of the syringe; and

c: a first light emitting portion which emits light with a first color and illuminates the syringe, and a second light emitting portion which emits light with a second color and illuminates the syringe, wherein

the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion, viewed in a posture at the time of use of the injection head, are provided at an upper side of the ram member,

wherein the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion are arranged on a front-end surface of the injection head,

the syringe holding unit is located further forward than the front-end face of the injection head and

a direction of irradiation of lights from the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion is parallel to the central axis of the syringe.

2. The injection head according to claim 1 , wherein the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion are formed in a circular arc shape.

3. The injection head according to claim 2 , wherein the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion have a circular arc shape coaxial with a central axis of the ram member.

4. The injection head according to claim 1 , wherein the syringe is held by the syringe holding unit in a state of being accommodated in a protective case.

5. The injection head according to claim 4 , wherein the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion are provided along a reference circle which is coaxial with the ram member so that a flange portion of the protective case mounted on the syringe is irradiated with light, respectively.

6. The injection head according to claim 1 , wherein

for light emission of the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion, the injection head is configured to make such that,

the first light emitting portion is not turned on or blinked in a preparation phase of a chemical-liquid injection, and

the first light emitting portion is turned on or blinked in a chemical-liquid injection phase.

7. The injection head according to claim 1 , wherein the injection head is configured to turn on or blink one or both of the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion when a syringe is detected, or when a protective case mounted on the syringe is detected.

8. The injection head according to claim 1 , wherein

the syringe holding unit has a damper mechanism which holds a portion of the syringe or a portion of a protective case mounted on the syringe, and

the injection head is configured to turn on or blink one or both of the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion when the damper mechanism is switched from an open state to a closed state or from the closed state to the open state.

9. A chemical liquid injector comprising:

an injection head according to claim 1 ; and

a console which is connected to the injection head.

10. The chemical liquid injector according to claim 9 , wherein the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion have an opening formed in the front-end surface of the injection head and a transparent resin member fitted in the opening so as to form a same plane as the front-end surface, respectively.

11. The chemical liquid injector according to claim 9 , wherein

the syringe is held by the syringe holding unit in a state of being accommodated in a protective case, and

the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion are provided along a reference circle which is coaxial with the ram member so that a flange portion of the protective case mounted on the syringe is irradiated with light, respectively.

12. The injection head according to claim 1 , wherein the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion have an opening formed in the front-end surface of the injection head and a transparent resin member fitted in the opening so as to form a same plane as the front-end surface, respectively.

13. The injection head according to claim 1 , wherein

the syringe is held by the syringe holding unit in a state of being accommodated in a protective case, and

the first light emitting portion and the second light emitting portion are provided along a reference circle which is coaxial with the ram member so that a flange portion of the protective case mounted on the syringe is irradiated with light, respectively.
