[0028] In some embodiments, an injection head of a needle-free syringe is provided, which is provided with multiple nozzles 6. When the needle-free syringe is used to inject a large dose of liquid medicine, the multiple nozzles 6 can evenly distribute the amount of medicine output at each injection point, so that the amount of medicine at the injection site of the pig is lower than its carrying capacity, which is beneficial to the pig's absorption of the medicine.

[0029] In some embodiments, an injection head of a needle-free syringe is provided, comprising an injection body, an adapter portion 4 and a fixing portion 5 , and a plurality of nozzles 6 are also provided.

[0030] The front end of the injection body has a drug discharge port 3, and a power component is arranged inside to discharge the drug liquid from the drug discharge port, generally through the injection push rod 2, to push the drug liquid out, and it can also be a hydraulic pressure device, such as a pump body, etc. It should be noted that, in order to facilitate the description of various structural relationships, the spraying direction of the nozzle 6 in the context is the forward direction.

[0031] The rear end of the adapter part 4 is installed on the injection body, and the inner cavity of the adapter part 4 is connected to the drug discharge port 3 to receive the liquid medicine discharged from the drug discharge port 3. The fixed part 5 is installed on the front part of the adapter part 4, and a plurality of nozzles 6 are installed on the fixed part 5, and each nozzle 6 is connected to the inner cavity of the adapter part 4 through the fixed part 5, so that the liquid medicine can be obtained from the above adapter part 4, so that the injection can be completed. It should be noted that the connection method between each nozzle 6 and the fixed part 5 can be set separately according to needs, or the same connection method can be adopted.

[0032] In the injection head of the above-mentioned needle-free syringe, an adapter part 4 is added to the front end of the injection body, and a plurality of nozzles 6 are arranged through the fixing part 5, so that the liquid medicine discharged from the drug discharge port 3 of the injection body can be respectively introduced into each nozzle 6 through the adapter part 4. At this time, it is only necessary to discharge the liquid medicine of the injection body from the drug discharge port 3 into the inner cavity of the adapter part 4, so that each nozzle 6 can complete the injection. Because a plurality of nozzles 6 are arranged at the same time, when the needle-free syringe injects a large dose of liquid medicine, the plurality of nozzles 6 can evenly distribute the amount of medicine discharged from each injection point, so that the amount of medicine at the injection site of the injected object is lower than its carrying capacity, which is beneficial to the absorption of the medicine by the injected object. In summary, the injection head of the needle-free syringe can effectively solve the problem of small single injection volume of the needle-free syringe.

[0033] In some embodiments, considering the need to arrange multiple nozzles 6, the dispersion area required for the multiple nozzles 6 is generally significantly larger than the discharge port 3. In order to facilitate the passage through the adapter 4, the liquid medicine discharged from the discharge port 3 is directed to each nozzle 6, and it is preferred that the inner cavity of the adapter 4 is a conical cavity, and the conical cavity 41 gradually increases in cross section in the forward direction, and the small diameter end of the conical cavity 41 is connected to the discharge port 3, so that the liquid medicine in the discharge port 3 enters the conical cavity 41, and is directed to each nozzle 6 under the guidance of the cavity wall of the conical cavity 41.

[0034] Of course, the inner cavity of the above-mentioned adapter 4 can also be a cylindrical cavity, a square cavity or a special-shaped cavity, and the front and rear cross-sectional sizes are the same or vary little. Compared with the above-mentioned conical cavity 41, these cavities have poorer guiding effects.

[0035] In some embodiments, generally speaking, the injection body includes a syringe barrel 1 having a medicine cavity and an injection push rod 2 disposed in the medicine cavity, and the injection push rod 2 is slidably matched with the medicine cavity so as to be used to push the medicine liquid in the medicine cavity to be discharged from the medicine discharge port 3, that is, by moving the injection push rod 2 forward, the medicine liquid in the medicine cavity can be pushed out from the medicine discharge port 3 to complete the injection.

[0036] At this time, in order to facilitate the connection, it is preferred that the rear end of the adapter 4 is sleeved on the front end of the syringe 1 and the two are threadedly connected. That is, the outer side of the front end of the syringe 1 is provided with an external thread, and the rear end of the adapter 4 is provided with a threaded hole to be connected with the above-mentioned external thread. Generally speaking, in order to ensure a sealed connection, it is generally necessary to connect the rear end of the adapter 4 and the front end of the syringe 1 through a sealing ring to complete the sealed connection. By threading the adapter 4 and the syringe 1, it is convenient to manufacture, and the changes to the shape and structure of the existing syringe 1 can be minimized.

[0037] Of course, the connection between the adapter 4 and the syringe 1 may be by integral molding, clamping, welding, etc., in addition to the above-mentioned threaded connection.

[0038] In some embodiments, the small diameter end of the conical cavity 41 is aligned with the discharge port 3 and has the same diameter to achieve a better guiding effect. The alignment means that the axes of the two are located on the same straight line. In the axial position, the small diameter end of the conical cavity 41 is adjacent to the discharge port 3, that is, connected. It should be noted that if the discharge port 3 is trumpet-shaped, then the small diameter end of the conical cavity 41 is aligned with the discharge port 3 and has the same diameter, which means that the small diameter end of the conical cavity 41 is aligned with the front end of the discharge port 3 and has the same diameter.

[0039] In some embodiments, the diameter of the medicine cavity can be made equal to the diameter of the medicine discharge port 3, so that the injection push rod 2 can extend from the medicine discharge port 3 to the medicine cavity of the adapter 4, so as to fully push the medicine liquid in the medicine cavity into the inner cavity of the adapter 4, so as to effectively avoid residual medicine liquid.

[0040] In some embodiments, the adapter 4 and the fixing portion 5 may be fixedly connected or integrally formed. In order to facilitate molding, a detachable connection is generally adopted. Specifically, in order to facilitate connection, it is preferred that the front portion of the adapter 4 has a mounting hole 42 connected to the conical cavity 41, and the rear portion of the fixing portion 5 is inserted into the mounting hole 42 and fixedly connected therebetween. At this time, the inner side surface of the fixing portion 5 faces the inner cavity of the adapter 4 to facilitate the introduction of the liquid medicine into the nozzle 6.

[0041] In some embodiments, in order to further facilitate the internal liquid medicine diversion, it is preferred that the fixing portion 5 has a protrusion 51 extending backward in the middle of the side facing the conical cavity 41, and a plurality of liquid guide channels 54 for connecting the nozzle 6 on the fixing portion 5 are arranged around the protrusion 51, and the discharge port 3 is opposite to the protrusion 51, so that the protrusion 51 can divert the liquid medicine to guide the liquid guide channels 54 on the side respectively, so as to guide the corresponding nozzle 6 by the corresponding liquid guide channels 54. The liquid guide channels 54 and the nozzles 6 are generally arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. The protrusion 51 can be a cylindrical protrusion or a conical protrusion, and the tip of the conical protrusion is backward to achieve better diversion. Specifically, the protrusion 51 structure can also be arranged accordingly as needed.

[0042] In some embodiments, a one-way valve 7 is generally provided to prevent liquid backflow. When multiple nozzles 6 are provided, only one one-way valve 7 may be provided, such as providing a one-way valve 7 at the drug discharge port 3. However, this arrangement is not good and may cause contamination in the inner cavity of the nozzle 6. Based on this, it is preferred that a one-way valve 7 is provided between each liquid guide channel 54 and the nozzle 6.

[0043] In some embodiments, in order to facilitate the installation of the fixing part 5, the fixing part 5 may include a disc 52 and a plurality of mounting tubes 53. The disc 52 cooperates with the mounting hole 42, such as being connected to the bottom of the rear end of the mounting hole 42 by screws, and preferably sealed by a sealing ring.

[0044] The disc portion 52 has a liquid-conducting channel 54 that runs through the front and back, and the protrusion 51 is provided in the middle of the rear side of the disc portion 52 for flow diversion. Two, three or four liquid-conducting channels 54 are provided around the protrusion 51, and of course more liquid-conducting channels 54 can be provided to correspond to more nozzles 6. The barrel cavity of the mounting barrel 53 is connected to the liquid-conducting channel 54 for communication, and the one-way valve 7 is provided in the barrel cavity of the mounting barrel 53, and the nozzle 6 is sleeved on the mounting barrel 53 and threadedly matched therebetween. In the fixing portion 5, the connection between the nozzle 6 and the adapter 4 is simple in connection method and easy to operate.

One end of the transfer part 4 is connected to the syringe body, and the other end is connected to the fixing part 5. A sealing ring is arranged between the transfer part 4 and the fixing part 5. A plurality of nozzles 6 are arranged on the fixing part 5. A one-way valve 7 is arranged between each nozzle 6 and the fixing part 5. The liquid medicine is uniformly ejected through each nozzle 6 through the cavity.

[0046] A conical groove is provided at one end of the adapter portion 4 , and a groove for placing a sealing ring is also provided at the outer edge of the conical groove, and a cavity is formed between the conical groove and the fixing portion 5 .

[0047] A boss is provided at the center of the fixing portion 5 on one side of the cavity, which can divert the injected liquid medicine and effectively reduce the impact on the fixing portion 5 of the nozzle 6 .

[0048] A plurality of bosses connected to the nozzle 6 are arranged on the other side of the nozzle 6 fixing portion 5 , a groove for placing the one-way valve 7 of the nozzle 6 is arranged on the boss, and a sealing ring is also arranged between the boss and the nozzle 6 .
