Abstract
Abstract A device for taking and injecting microsamples of liquid comprises a casing having a hollow needle accommodating a plunger. The end of the plunger telescoping outside the needle has a plurality of through-passing transverse bores spaced lengthwise of the plunger and having skew axes, the bores serving as cavities for successively taking a plurality of samples. The plunger is connected to a slider having a handle. The device has means for preventing the slider and plunger from rotating about the longitudinal axis.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
A device for taking and injecting microsamples of liquid comprising: a casing; a hollow needle mounted to the casing; a plunger accommodated in the needle for movement and partial telescoping beyond the limits of the needle at the front end thereof; said plunger having a plurality of bores spaced lengthwise of the plunger and arranged in such a manner as to have skew axes, the bores serving for successively taking a plurality of samples; a slider mounted in said casing and rigidly secured to the rear end of said plunger; a hamdle of said slide to impart reciprocations thereto; means for preventing said slider and plunger from rotating about the longitudinal axis.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
112 words
A device for taking and injecting microsamples of liquid comprising: a casing; a hollow needle mounted to the casing; a plunger accommodated in the needle for movement and partial telescoping beyond the limits of the needle at the front end thereof; said plunger having a plurality of bores spaced lengthwise of the plunger and arranged in such a manner as to have skew axes, the bores serving for successively taking a plurality of samples; a slider mounted in said casing and rigidly secured to the rear end of said plunger; a hamdle of said slide to impart reciprocations thereto; means for preventing said slider and plunger from rotating about the longitudinal axis.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
37 words
A device according to claim 1 comprising: said plunger having an annular groove partially extending beyond the limits of said needle when the plunger is completely telescoped outside the needle, the groove serving for taking washing liquid.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
45 words
A device according to claim 1 comprising: said plunger having a plurality of locking recesses spaced lengthwise thereof; a spring-loaded locking member mounted in said casing and cooperating with said locking recesses to lock the plunger in positions of taking samples in respective bores thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
45 words
A device according to claim 2 comprising: said slider having a plurality of locking recesses spaced lengthwise thereof; a spring-loaded locking member mounted in said casing and cooperating with said locking recesses to lock the plunger in positions of taking samples in respective bores thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
73 words
A device according to claim 1 comprising: said needle having the front end thereof cut at right angle; a pointed tip at the end of said plunger extending outside said needle; an annular shoulder of said tip facing the cut of the needle, the outside diameter of the shoulder corresponding to the outside diameter of the needle, the shoulder intimately engaging said needle cut when the plunger is completely retracted in the needle.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
73 words
A device according to claim 2 comprising: said needle having the front end thereof cut at right angle; a pointed tip at the end of said plunger extending outside said needle; an annular shoulder of said tip facing the cut of the needle, the outside diameter of the shoulder corresponding to the outside diameter of the needle, the shoulder intimately engaging said needle cut when the plunger is completely retracted in the needle.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
73 words
A device according to claim 3 comprising said needle having the front end thereof cut at right angle; a pointed tip at the end of said plunger extending outside said needle; an annular shoulder of said tip facing the cut of the needle, the outside diameter of the shoulder corresponding to the outside diameter of the needle, the shoulder intimately engaging said needle cut when the plunger is completely retracted in the needle.
