AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional paste injectors experience plunger bending during extrusion due to the cross-sectional shape and length of the plunger, leading to interference with the syringe and improper paste extrusion.

Method used

The paste injector design includes a plunger with a rod portion composed of strip-shaped plate materials connected at 90° intervals, featuring a tip portion with a smaller cross-sectional area than the storage chamber and an operating portion with a larger cross-sectional area, along with a reinforcing portion to minimize deflection.

Benefits of technology

This configuration effectively suppresses plunger deflection, ensuring proper extrusion of paste by maintaining alignment and preventing interference with the syringe.

Abstract

In order to provide a paste injector that is capable of suppressing deflection of a plunger when inserting the same into a syringe and capable of appropriately pushing out paste, a paste injector (1) is provided with a plunger (5) that is inserted into a first paste housing chamber through a filling port to push out paste from a discharge port, and the plunger (5) has a first rod part (69) that extends in the longitudinal direction (X). The first rod part (69) has: a plurality of strip-shaped plate members (71) that extend in the longitudinal direction (X), the base edges of which are connected to each other; and a plurality of reinforcing sections (72) that connect adjacent plate members (71) and are formed so as to be continuous between a holder engagement part and an operation part (67). A space (S1) between the inner peripheral surface of the first paste housing chamber (49) and the distal edge (71f) of each of the plate members (71) is smaller than a space (S2) between the inner peripheral surface of the first paste housing chamber (49) and the outer peripheral surface (72e) of each of the reinforcing sections (72).
