Abstract

A dual chamber syringe, comprising a syringe barrel having a forward end, a rearward end and at least one bypass protrusion arranged along the longitudinal extent of the syringe barrel; a finger grip element coupled to the rearward end of the syringe barrel, the finger grip comprises at least one protrusion extending radially inwardly from an inner surface thereof; a plunger rod operatively coupled with the finger grip element; a guiding track is formed on the plunger rod and comprises a helical track portion and a longitudinal track portion; and wherein upon relative displacement of the plunger rod and said finger grip element, the at least one protrusion is guided along the guiding track.

Claims (15)

1. A dual chamber syringe, comprising:

a syringe barrel having a forward end, a rearward end and at least one bypass protrusion arranged along a longitudinal extent of said syringe barrel;

a finger grip element coupled to said rearward end of said syringe barrel, said finger grip comprises at least one protrusion extending radially inwardly from an inner surface of said finger grip element;

a plunger rod operatively coupled with said finger grip element, said plunger rod has a forward end and a rearward end; a guiding track is formed on said plunger rod and comprises a helical track portion and a longitudinal track portion; said plunger rod is positionable in several operative orientations relative to said syringe barrel, said orientations comprising: a storage, a pre-reconstitution, a reconstitution and an end of reconstitution operative orientation;

wherein upon relative displacement of said plunger rod and said finger grip element, said at least one protrusion is guided along said guiding track,

and wherein in said storage operative orientation: said at least one protrusion is axially spaced from said guiding track, and the plunger rod is rotatably displaceable relative to said finger grip element,

and wherein in said storage operative orientation, said plunger rod is at least partially inserted into said finger grip element, and said forward end of said plunger rod is disposed forwardly of said at least one protrusion.

2. The dual chamber syringe according to claim 1 and wherein said helical track portion is connected to said longitudinal track portion.

3. The dual chamber syringe according to claim 2 and wherein said helical track portion is connected to said longitudinal track portion by a raised ridge, whereas a step is formed between said helical track portion and said longitudinal track portion.

4. The dual chamber syringe according to claim 1 and wherein said plunger rod is configured to be threadably displaced relative to said finger grip element when said at least one protrusion is engaged with said helical track portion and said plunger rod is configured to be axially displaced relative to said finger grip element when said at least one protrusion is engaged with said longitudinal track portion.

5. The dual chamber syringe according to claim 4 and also comprising a forward piston, an intermediate piston and a rearward piston slidably arranged within said syringe barrel and wherein said rearward piston is attached to said plunger rod.

6. The dual chamber syringe according to claim 5 and wherein said plunger rod is configured to be axially displaced relative to said finger grip element when at least a portion of said intermediate piston is displaced forwardly of said at least one bypass protrusion.

7. The dual chamber syringe according to claim 5 and wherein said plunger rod includes an inner plunger rod portion fixedly connected to an outer plunger rod portion and wherein said guiding track is formed on said outer plunger rod portion.

8. The dual chamber syringe according to claim 7 and wherein said inner plunger rod portion includes an externally threaded protrusion extending from a forward end of said inner plunger rod portion and said rearward piston includes an internally threaded socket adapted for threadable engagement with said externally threaded protrusion.

9. The dual chamber syringe according to claim 8 and wherein a threading between said plunger rod and said rearward piston and a threading between the plunger rod and the finger grip element are different either in pitch or direction.
