Abstract
Abstract In one embodiment, a luer-loc-tip is integrally mounted to the vial (10) which is removably mountable to a syringe (30) for withdrawing liquid from the vial (10) without the presence of a needle (50). In an alternate embodiment, the luer-loc flange is mountable to a conventional vial (50) by means of clamps (68) and enclosed by means of a sealing cap.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
The combination of: a vial of liquid including a hollow main body with an outlet, said vial further including openable sealing means extending across said outlet to allow withdrawal of said liquid front said main body, characterized by said outlet including first locking means; and, a hollow casing including a plunger slidably mounted therein, said casing including an inlet and second locking means positioned adjacent said inlet, said inlet matable with said outlet with said second locking means removable lockable with said first locking means to secure said vial to said casing as said plunger is moved away from said inlet withdrawing said liquid from said vial into said casing.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
110 words
The combination of: a vial of liquid including a hollow main body with an outlet, said vial further including openable sealing means extending across said outlet to allow withdrawal of said liquid front said main body, characterized by said outlet including first locking means; and, a hollow casing including a plunger slidably mounted therein, said casing including an inlet and second locking means positioned adjacent said inlet, said inlet matable with said outlet with said second locking means removable lockable with said first locking means to secure said vial to said casing as said plunger is moved away from said inlet withdrawing said liquid from said vial into said casing.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
60 words
The combination of claim 1 wherein: said hollow main body includes an outwardly extending first neck forming said outlet and said hollow casing includes a outwardly extending tube slidably matable with said neck, said first locking means and said second locking means includes an outwardly extending flange and groove positioned on said neck and said tube which are matable together.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
35 words
The combination of claim 2 wherein: said hollow casing includes a sleeve concentric with but outwardly of said tube with said tube extendable into said neck which is extendable between said tube and said sleeve.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
28 words
The combination of claim 3 wherein: said first locking means is formed exteriorly on said said neck and said second locking means is formed interiorly on said sleeve.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
53 words
The combination of claim 4 wherein: said first locking means includes a pair of diametrically opposed and outwardly extending flanges oriented perpendicularly to said neck, said second locking means includes a spiral groove on said sleeve opening toward said tube which slidably receives said flanges to removably lock said vial to said casing.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
68 words
A syringe-vial device comprising: a luer-loc tipped vial of liquid; characterized by a cylindrical shaped casing with a first end having a tube forming a passage into said casing and further having a sleeve thereon to receive said vial with said sleeve concentrically located outwardly of said tube; and, a plunger slidable mounted in said casing to withdraw liquid from said vial through said passage into said casing.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
68 words
A syringe-vial device comprising: a luer-loc tipped vial of liquid; characterized by a cylindrical shaped casing with a first end having a tube forming a passage into said casing and further having a sleeve thereon to receive said vial with said sleeve concentrically located outwardly of said tube; and, a plunger slidable mounted in said casing to withdraw liquid from said vial through said passage into said casing.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
27 words
The device of claim 6 wherein: said sleeve includes an inner surface facing said tube with a thread formed thereon defining a groove to receive said vial.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
26 words
The device of claim 7 wherein: said casing includes a stop surface, said tube extends outwardly from said stop surface a distance greater than said sleeve.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
32 words
The device of claim 8 wherein: said tube and said sleeve define annular cavity which opens outwardly from said stop surface against which said vial is held securely against by said thread.
