[0023] The utility model will be further explained in connection with the drawings and examples.

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-7The utility model provides an embodiment: the syringe for epidural cavity has automatic push cap, including needle cylinder 1, the push rod 2 of inserting in needle cylinder 1, needle cylinder 1 includes piston mouth 11, medicine outlet 12, the edge 111 that protrudes to needle cylinder 1 radial outside is equipped with in piston mouth 11, the side of push rod 2 away from needle cylinder 1 is equipped with presser plate 21, and the automatic push cap 3 of connecting edge 111 and presser plate 21, the automatic push cap 3 is columnar structure, the automatic push cap 3 is equipped with recess 31 along the axle core, recess 31 includes groove bottom 311, and the recess 31 of automatic push cap 3 is integrally formed with annular flange 32 on the side away from groove bottom 311, and annular flange 32 can form mounting hole 321, the diameter of recess 31 is greater than the diameter of mounting hole 321, and the diameter of edge 111 is greater than the diameter of recess 31, and the automatic push cap 3 is made of elastic material, and through annular flange 32 is completely combined with edge 111, groove bottom 311 is combined with presser plate 21, so that the automatic push cap 3 is not easy to fall from the syringe, using the thrust of the elastic deformation of automatic push cap 3, realize when epidural puncture, puncture needle tip reaches epidural cavity, and the syringe filled with certain capacity liquid matched with epidural puncture needle, can automatically push injection medicine or physiological saline into epidural cavity, use automatic push cap 3 to realize the automatic, stable push injection of physiological saline etc.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1-5In the embodiment, the edge 32 close to the groove bottom 311 can be attached to the edge 111, and the groove bottom 311 can be attached to the pressing plate 21. When the edge 32 is attached to the edge 111, and the groove bottom 311 is attached to the pressing plate 21, the groove bottom 311 can pull the pressing plate 21 towards the edge 111. The pressing plate 21 is pulled towards the edge 111 by the force applied by the groove bottom 311, achieving the injection effect. The installation hole 321 can pass through the pressing plate 21 and the edge 111, and the hole wall of the installation hole 321 can be in contact with the outer wall of the syringe 1. By passing through the pressing plate 21 and the edge 111 from the installation hole 321, the installation of the automatic injection device is achieved. The hole wall of the installation hole 321 is in contact with the outer wall of the syringe 1, preventing the edge 111 from falling out of the installation hole 321 during automatic injection. Between the groove bottom 311 and the edge 32 on the automatic injection cap 3 is the cap wall 33, which can be stretched and contracted. The cap wall 33 provides a force to the pressing plate 21 towards the edge 111.

When the groove bottom 311 moves 40 mm away from the edge 32, the groove bottom 311 can apply a 4N pushing force to the pressing plate 21. Due to the partial hollowing on the cap wall 33, the hollowing is used to balance the air pressure inside and outside the automatic injection cap 3, but it needs to meet the following conditions: when the groove bottom 311 moves 10 mm away from the edge 32, the groove bottom 311 can apply a 2.5N pushing force to the pressing plate 21; when the groove bottom 311 moves 20 mm away from the edge 32, the groove bottom 311 can apply a 3N pushing force to the edge 32; when the groove bottom 311 moves 30 mm away from the edge 32, the groove bottom 311 can apply a 3.5N pushing force to the pressing plate 21; and when the groove bottom 311 moves 40 mm away from the edge 32, the groove bottom 311 can apply a 4N pushing force to the pressing plate 21, so as to achieve a safe and stable automatic injection during the entire process.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 2-7In the embodiment, the needle cylinder 1 is made of transparent material, the outer surface of the needle cylinder 1 is provided with 4ml scale, the pressing plate 21 can drive the groove bottom 311 to move away from the piston port 11, when the groove bottom 311 moves away from the piston port 11 by 40mm, 4ml liquid can be sucked in the needle cylinder 1, through the transparent material of the needle cylinder 1 and the corresponding 4ml scale, it is convenient for medical staff to easily use the syringe to suck physiological saline and other substances, when the needle cylinder 1 sucks 4ml physiological saline and other substances, the groove bottom 311 can exert a 4N pushing force on the pressing plate 21 to facilitate the release of 4ml physiological saline and other substances in the epidural space, when 4ml physiological saline and other substances are discharged from the needle cylinder 1, the medical staff should stop continuing to insert the needle deeper to protect the spinal cord, the groove bottom 311 is closely attached to the pressing plate 21, the middle region of the groove bottom 311 is provided with a perforation 3111, the diameter of the perforation 3111 is smaller than the diameter of the pressing plate 21, the device is easily disassembled and assembled, the modules of each part of the syringe are modularized, the contaminated and damaged parts are easily replaced, and the subsequent cleaning, disinfection and maintenance are more convenient.

[0027] In the work, the medical staff selects a new syringe from the sealed bag according to the needs or assembles the old syringe which has been modularly disassembled, cleaned and disinfected, first, the medical staff inserts the push rod 2 into the needle cylinder 1 along the piston port 11, then the medical staff opens the mounting hole 321 of the automatic push injection cap 3, puts the pressing plate 21 and the edge 111 into the automatic push injection cap 3, and attaches the edge 111 to the edge 111, the above steps can be completed by the doctor or the manufacturer, the medical staff inserts the medicine outlet 12 into the subcutaneous tissue of the patient first, then the medical staff holds the needle cylinder 1 to suck 4ml physiological saline and other substances, specifically, the medical staff holds the pressing plate 21 and the automatic push injection cap 3 at the position of the pressing plate 21, puts the needle cylinder 1 into the solution containing physiological saline and other substances, stretches the pressing plate 21 away from the edge 111, then puts the medicine outlet 12 on the needle cylinder 1, continues to hold the needle cylinder 1 and the medicine outlet 12 to penetrate deeper, when the medicine outlet 12 pierces the yellow ligament, there will be a sense of emptiness, when the medicine outlet 12 is placed in the epidural space, there will be a certain negative pressure in the epidural space to suck a certain amount of physiological saline and other liquid medicine from the medicine outlet 12, at the same time, the automatic push injection cap 3 automatically extrudes the pressing plate 21 to empty the physiological saline and other liquid medicine in the needle cylinder 1, the emptying here is stable and continuous, when the automatic push injection cap 3 starts to push, the doctor should immediately stop inserting deeper to avoid damaging the spinal cord, the medicine outlet 12 here is a puncture needle.

[0028] Through the above steps, the annular welt 32 is completely attached to the edge 111, and the groove bottom 311 is attached to the pressing plate 21, so that the automatic injection cap 3 is not easy to fall off from the syringe, and the automatic injection cap 3 is used to realize the automatic and smooth injection of physiological saline and other liquids. The diameter of the edge 111 is greater than the diameter of the groove 31, which can make the automatic injection cap 3 firmly cover the edge 111, prevent the automatic injection cap 3 from sliding off the edge 111, the automatic injection cap 3 is made of elastic material, and the elastic deformation of the automatic injection cap 3 is used to realize automatic injection. The deformation amount of the automatic injection cap 3 is proportional to the generated force, the automatic injection cap 3 can achieve the effect of smooth injection, the automatic injection cap 3 is made of medical grade elastic rubber product, which is non-toxic and non-polluting. To solve the problem that the grease is easy to adhere to the spring processed in the prior art, it is more troublesome to clean, easy to pollute the syringe and liquid medicine, and the spring is placed in the syringe, which increases the product manufacturing cost and brings the problem of inconvenient operation of doctors due to the increase of the volume and weight of the spring.
