Example Embodiment

[0033] An example of a fluid delivery system is shown in figure 1 , And is indicated by the reference numeral 10. The fluid delivery system 10 includes a syringe 14 and a fluid source 86. Generally, the fluid delivery system 10 is configured to automatically refill the syringe 14 with liquid from the fluid source 86. The term "refilling" covers the provision of any suitable space for the syringe 14 and specifically does not require the fluid from the fluid source 86 to occupy the entire fluid containing space of the syringe 14 as a result of the refilling operation.

[0034] The syringe 14 includes a syringe body 18 and a plunger or push rod assembly 54 that extends in the syringe body 18 and can slide in the same way as the body. The syringe body 18 may have any suitable size, shape, configuration, and / or type. The syringe body 18 may be formed of any suitable material or combination of materials. In one embodiment, the syringe body 18 is an integrally formed structure (for e...

Abstract

A hand-activated syringe (14) is disclosed that uses a vacuum to retract a plunger (54) of the syringe (14) to draw fluid into a syringe body (18). A first seal (76) with the plunger (54) and a second seal (64) with the plunger (54) define a vacuum chamber (82). The spacing between the first seal (76) and the second seal (64) changes in response to the plunger (54) moving relative to the syringe body (18). Advancing the plunger (54) in a direction associated with a discharge stroke creates or increases a vacuum within the vacuum chamber (82) by increasing a spacing between the first seal (76) and the second seal (64). This vacuum thereafter may be used to retract the plunger (54) by decreasing a spacing between the first seal (76) and the second seal (64), and to thereby draw fluid into the syringe (14) from a fluid source (86).

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application No. 61 / 149,718, filed February 4, 2009, entitled "HAND-ACTUATED SYRINGE WITH VACUUM CHAMBER FOR AUTO REFILL." technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to filling hand-actuated syringes. Background technique [0004] Hand-held, hand-operated (eg, hand-actuated) syringes may be used in cardiac catheterization laboratory procedures and special angiographic procedures. For example, for a given procedure, the syringe needs to be filled one or more times with a medical fluid, such as a contrast agent for a medical imaging procedure. In this regard, the first syringe is typically interconnected with the vial by using a combination of a syringe needle and the pierceable membrane / septum of the vial or by using a combination of a syringe luer fit and a piercing needle associated with the vial. Once interconnected with the vial, the user or physician (usually a n...
